-------------------------------- i don't think that ' civil service employees ' can be trusted any more than their bosses . 'civil service' employees work for 'mrobama and other past 'dems' plus traitorous 'repub' rinos TTumbler .Donald Trump ordered his security officials to give Jared and Ivanka top secret security clearances, despite both of them failing the requisite security investigations. Both Donald and Ivanka have previously denied that Trump had anything to do with these clearances.
Trump ordered officials to give Kushner security clearance despite concerns, report says - live
Trump routinely disregards what his security officials tell them. Like Kim's denial in the death of Otto Warbier. Trump believes MBS, Putin and Kim over his own security people. What could possible go wrong.
So security officials, as part of the executive branch of the United States, can override the elected President?
Who works for who?
There are no records of a President making such an absurd demand.
Just another example of his putting family over country.
There is no record of a civil service so hostile to a previous president either. You can't say "it hasn't happened before" when you have the current new situation because of the "resistance"
I thought the civil service, independent of gov't, is supposed to vet people for security clearance. I thought it was their job to do so to protect national security. Silly me.
Kushner's initial filing contained at least 100 errors or omissions that he later had to correct. That should have nixed all his chances at a clearance from the get-go. But The Orange Virus just does what he wants.
