  President Donald Trump's plan to grant temporary security clearances to anyone he chooses opens the door to breaches and even espionage, experts say.

The article discusses former President Donald Trump's executive order from 2020 that aimed to streamline the security clearance process by reducing the number of federal employees with access to classified information. Critics argue that this order could compromise national security by limiting the number of people who can access critical intelligence, potentially slowing down decision-making processes and reducing the depth of analysis available to policymakers. The order was intended to enhance security by minimizing insider threats, but experts like former CIA official Gail Helt warn that it might instead make the U.S. more vulnerable by creating information silos and reducing the sharing of intelligence. Furthermore, the reduction in clearances could lead to a loss of experienced personnel, further impacting national security capabilities.
