[Daily Mail, Where America Gets Its News] White House Press Secretary Sarah Sanders read a statement from the president canceling former CIA chief's security clearance
Brennan is a longtime agent who ran the Puzzle Palace under President Obama and was at the helm during the Osama bin Laden raid
He served under Republican and Democratic presidents and has become a fierce Trump critic on Twitter; was a key figure in the launch of the Russia probe
Sanders read a list of other critics whose clearances are under review
They include James Clapper, James Comey, Michael Hayden, Sally Yates, Susan Rice, Andrew McCabe, Peter Strzok, Lisa Page and Bruce Ohr
Brennan tweeted in July that Trump's summit with Vladimir Putin was 'treasonous'

Ref #5: “It was a topic of conversation within the office,” Mr. Bigley told The Times. “What is Halper doing, and why is he being paid astronomically more than others similarly situated?”
Halper's 'job' was very likely a cover for action (vehicle for payment) for other services not mentioned.

That MESH link is great. Nausea-inducing, but great. I get the feeling I am looking at an op, but not a home-grown op.

I don't like MI-6, Russians and Ukrainians all over the MESH op. I suspect Brennan and O and Hill are owned by those 3. Clinton's old witch All-Dim is all through the conspiracy too.

MESH - sounds like a bunch of low level crooks, hacks, sleazoids, frauds, bullshit artists and con artists got together and call themselves a "high–level source network with a sophisticated investigative capability".

Why did he still have a clearance? You leave the job, you get read off, and thats it, no more need to know = no more clerance. Thats how it worked after leaving the service, thats how it worked after leaving a contract job that required an SSBI type clearance. Why should he retain a clearance when he has NO NEED TO KNOW?

But upon separation of federal service (retired big shots aside such as flag officers), your clearance is still "in scope" for two years if the investigation anniversary date has not passed. Two years ought to give people enough time to find a Beltway Bandit job.

Pretty obviously this asshole will NOT be consulted in the future by this Admin. He's a treasonous cancer with known Islamic/Commie links. Why ANYONE thought he should be in intel is beyond me

[PJ] Governor Andrew Cuomo (D-N.Y.) "drew gasps from the crowd" on Wednesday when he belittled America in response to President Trump's "Make America Great Again" slogan.
"We’re not going to make America great again. It was never that great," Cuomo said during a speech in New York. He went on to argue that only when Democrat priorities like women's rights are realized will this dark, oppressive dystopia known as the U.S.A. ever become great.
"We have not reached greatness, we will reach greatness when every American is fully engaged, we will reach greatness when discrimination and stereotyping against women, 51 percent of our population, is gone and every woman’s full potential is realized and unleashed and every woman is making her full contribution," he said.
Cuomo, the son of former New York governor Mario Cuomo and older brother of CNN Anchor Chris "Fredo" Cuomo, is widely believed to be a contender for the Democratic nomination for the White House in 2020.
Republican gubernatorial candidate Marc Molinaro called on Cuomo to apologize, saying, America "with its imperfections, has always been great."

My guess would be that Andrew just set a new record for shortest time from original speech to Republican campaign ad. Sadly, it probably won't make much difference in this deep blue state.

we will reach greatness when discrimination and stereotyping against women, 51 percent of our population, is gone and every woman’s full potential is realized and unleashed and every woman is making her full contribution,
There's a surefire winner (sarc on). Cuomo is such a loser--a part of the I hate America movement. Maybe, he'll come up with his next slogan as "Make New York Suck Some More."

I've read articles that talk about folks leaving NY because Trumps tax cuts (and the bit that disallowed deducting your massive state taxes as a from federal taxes have really thrown a light on how highly taxed certain states are. NY is heading for a downward spiral if their leaders can't come up with more than blaming Trump.
