  • Two senior Republican senators on Sunday urged U.S. President Donald Trump to rethink his decision to strip personal security from some former Trump administration officials, one of whom was the target of an alleged Iranian plot.

The article from MSN discusses how top Republicans, including former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy and former Trump Defense Secretary Mark Esper, have criticized former President Donald Trump's suggestion to revoke security clearances from former officials who have publicly opposed him. Trump's proposal targets individuals like former CIA Director John Brennan and former Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, accusing them of politicizing intelligence. Critics argue that such a move would be unprecedented and could undermine national security by potentially deterring intelligence officials from providing candid assessments. McCarthy emphasized the importance of security clearances for national security, while Esper called the idea "petty" and "dangerous," highlighting the potential negative impact on the intelligence community's morale and effectiveness.
