President Trump announced he is revoking former President Biden's security clearance and stopping his daily intelligence briefings, framing it as retaliation for Biden's actions taken in 2021. In his social media post, Trump argues there is no need for Biden to access classified information since Biden had previously ended Trump's briefings due to concerns over his behavior relating to the January 6 Capitol attack. This action is part of Trump's ongoing pattern of revoking clearances from officials who he perceives as critics, reflecting a broader vendetta against opponents in Washington.
“There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information. Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden's Security Clearances.”
“He set this precedent in 2021, when he instructed the Intelligence Community to stop the 45th President of the United States from accessing details on National Security.”
