Trump stops Biden's daily intelligence briefings​

Feb 7 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said he was revoking former President Joe Biden's security clearances and stopping his daily intelligence briefings as there was no need for his predecessor to receive classified information.

Good for him, there is no reason for him to get them, he is out of office.

Why on earth would they be trying to give him intelligence briefings?
It is customary that former presidents and high officials in the Cabinet retain security clearances so the new team can ask the old team for advice and background (and show them the new secret stuff).

Biden doesn't have the acuity for that.

President Trump already held the position and won't need help, plus, he kept the documents at mar largo to train the new staff. No need to include those who are against the Republicans.

Who is next?

Losing the Clearence makes Joe pretty much useless to those who would pay him for influence.
It's cute when you guys pretend like you care about people buying influence.

All I know is presidents can grant and revoke security clearances all within the confines of the law. Sadly for Biden mental acuity is a requirement and we know the effects of aging.

For the FBI agents is a different story.

In 2021, then-President Biden barred then-former President Donald Trump access to intelligence briefings arguing that Trump could not be trusted because of his "erratic behavior."

Was this before or after the National Archives discovered that Mister Trump had (allegedly) purloined several hundred documents?
Yep about 25 years after Joe purloined records he had no authority to take and store them in his garage and in closets unattended in a public building.

Oh, wait! We are speaking of briefings,

Don't worry, Trump doesn't have the ability to concentrate for his own intelligence briefings as we already saw during his last term. They wouldn't be asking Biden or his people for information just out of spite.

Considering all the false reports of Biden being sharp as a tack, it's likely the negative reports against Trump have been equally false.
