Trump Revokes Security Clearances for Biden, Harris, Clinton, and 15 Others

The move targets political opponents and critics, citing national interest, and follows Biden's 2021 decision to deny Trump access to classified information.

  • President Donald Trump issued a memorandum rescinding the security clearances of over a dozen individuals, including Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Hillary Clinton.
  • The memo states that the revocations were made because it was 'no longer in the national interest' for these individuals to access classified information.
  • The affected individuals will no longer receive classified briefings or have unescorted access to secure U.S. government facilities.
  • The list includes prominent Trump critics and legal adversaries, such as Liz Cheney, Adam Kinzinger, Letitia James, and Alvin Bragg.
  • This action builds on earlier measures by Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard and is seen as a response to Biden's 2021 decision to revoke Trump's access to classified information.
