President Donald Trump has revoked the security clearances of his predecessor, Joe Biden, and several other former high-ranking officials, including Kamala Harris.
The list of those who lost their access to classified information includes Biden’s family members, former Vice President Harris, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, and current Biden administration officials Antony Blinken and Jacob Sullivan.
In a memo, Trump directed all executive departments and agencies to revoke the security clearances and unescorted access to secure government facilities for these individuals.
Trump Revokes Security Clearances Of Biden, Harris, Senior AidesTraditionally, former presidents and national security officials retain security clearances, which can be useful for consulting or private sector employment.
Trump, who continues to falsely allege that Biden stole the 2020 election, has been openly hostile towards his predecessor. Trump himself faced an investigation for mishandling classified documents after leaving office, which was later dropped upon his return.
The list includes many prominent Democrats, as well as Republican critic Liz Cheney and former Trump administration officials Fiona Hill and Alexander Vindman, who had publicly criticized Trump’s actions.
