Trump Threatens to Pull Clearance For CNN’s Phil Mudd After Seeing Him on TV: He’s ‘In No Mental Condition’

President Donald Trump is adding CNN contributor Phil Mudd to the list of intelligence officials who might lose their security clearance for criticizing him.

Mudd, a former CIA officer, attracted a lot of attention last week over his explosive showdown with pro-Trump commentator Paris Dennard. The two debated whether Trump is using security clearance revocation to punish his foes, and Mudd blew up after Dennard accused officials like him of profiting from their clearance by securing media commentary positions.

As it were, Fox News’ Sean Hannity made fun of Mudd’s “complete meltdown” on his show tonight, and obviously, Trump was watching.

why does he want to keep his clearance if it is not beneficial to him to have it?

The taxpayers provided him with work and a steady paycheck for 25 years and this is the thanks we get?

If son in law Jared's constantly having to redo his various disclosures proved anything it's that it must not be all that hard to get clearance.

Good.

Hope he does.

This is a big part of the swamp problem, these fuckers never go away, no matter what you do or how hard you vote.

They just continue to leech off the system.

I would support a full review of all ex-government employees for security clearance removal. Why do they still need it? Doesn't make any sense.

Allowing ex-employees to retain security clearance is like allowing ex-employees to retain keys to the facility.

This is the reason they have a POS like Mudd is a CIA / FBI analyst.

Also Jake Tapper from CNN is also proud of this tidbit of information about Mudd:

You can't get a job in D.C. otherwise. This is your meal ticket. Revoking it means you are a toast. :cool:

New employers should be responsible for providing employees with adequate avenues to attain security clearance to perform the job. If you are not capable of acquiring the clearance than find another type of work. I cannot be a commercial truck driver because of a history of seizures. Felon's cannot own guns or vote. Lawyers that get disbarred cannot practice law.

If you leave government office then you should have to leave without security clearance. If you left in good standing then that should bolster your ability to acquire a new security clearance relative to the requirements of your new employer. There should be a means for self employed individuals to attain a security clearance like other professions attain licenses.

Trump watches CNN?

Donald Trump 'erupted with rage' when Melania's Air Force One TV was tuned to CNN, says leaked email

On the first couple’s recent trip overseas, Melania Trump’s television aboard Air Force One was tuned to CNN. President Donald Trump was not pleased.

He raged at his staff for violating a rule that the White House entourage should begin each trip tuned to Fox – his preferred network over what he considers the “fake news” CNN – and caused “a bit of a stir” aboard Air Force One, according to an email obtained by The New York Times.

Then I guess CNN isn't fake news since he tweeted about watching it in the OP.

Did he turn in on as per the article? NO.

Hannity played the clip on fox news.

You can also watch clips of CNN on your twitter feed.

That isn't "watching CNN"

"Watching CNN" means turning on the channel to see what they are reporting on today, not watching a specific clip that somebody posted for a specific reason.
