Mark Zaid, a lawyer who has represented numerous whistle-blowers across party lines, attracts President Trump's ire due to his involvement in the first impeachment case against Trump. After learning from an interview that his security clearance could be revoked, Zaid fears this may impede his ability to work on classified cases. He indicates that this move is part of a broader pattern of retaliation from Trump against those he feels have wronged him, emphasizing his long-standing commitment to holding administrations accountable for unethical actions.
I'm doing the same thing I have done since the day I set foot in Washington, D.C., 32 years ago. All I do is hold the administration accountable for unlawful and ethical lapses.
It is more than obvious that Trump is fulfilling the promises that he made and campaigned on, that he would retaliate against those who did him wrong.
