ODNI Tulsi Gabbard stripped security clearances from 37 Deep State officials tied to the Trump-Russia hoax.
The New York Post reported:
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced the revocation of 37 security clearances of current and former officials who “abused public trust by politicizing and manipulating” information — including several who were involved in a controversial, Barack Obama-ordered assessment of Russian influence in the 2016 election.
An ODNI memo dated Monday announced that the more than three dozen intel professionals — including a former top aide to Obama DNI James Clapper — had either politicized or weaponized intelligence, failed to safeguard classified info or not followed tradecraft standards.
“The President has directed that, effective immediately, the security clearances of the following 37 individuals are revoked,” the memo stated.
“Their access to classified systems, facilities, materials, and information is to be terminated forthwith. Any contracts or employment with the U.S. Government by these 37 individuals is hereby terminated. Any credentials held by these individuals must be surrendered to the appropriate security officers.”
The 37 include Vinh Nguyen, who assisted Clapper in producing the now-discredited 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment on Russia’s preference for then-candidate Donald Trump in the 2016 contest with Hillary Clinton.
