Former CIA Director John Brennan, the man who served three Presidents and played a key role in raid that captured Osama Bin Laden, was stripped of his security clearance by Donald Trump today. No other President in history has used his power to strip a civil servant of his security clearance based on criticism of administration. Today's actions represents one more attack on the men and women of the nation's intelligence services and sends a strong message that dissenting views will not be tolerated by the executive branch. Such vindictive actions are common place in such places as N. Korea, Venezuela and other countries ruled by paranoid despots. It should never happen in the United States.
