  • The White House announced on its X account that it is revoking President Joe Biden's security clearances and halting his daily intelligence briefings, citing concerns over his ability to handle sensitive information.

The article from MSN discusses former President Donald Trump's decision to revoke President Joe Biden's security clearances, citing concerns over Biden's memory and national security.

Legal and political analysts are debating the implications of this unprecedented step, questioning both its legality and its impact on the political landscape.
