Security Clearance

Submitted by ub on

Why does our national security appear to be in danger? How come are our nation's secrets are being shared with people who have not been vetted and issued a permanent security clearance? It is a national disgrace.

A security clearance is a status granted to individuals allowing them access to classified information, whether it be state or organizational secrets or to restricted areas, after completion of a thorough FBI background check.

While working for @GeorgeHWBush I received my top secret national security clearance faster than many Trump administration staff. Believe me that I can tell you. If Dick denied being a crook why hasn't Don done it yet?
