Overview
On Friday, President Trump announced he is revoking former President Biden's security clearances and halting his intelligence briefings, citing Biden's past actions against him and concerns about cognitive ability. Trump referred to a special counsel report labeling Biden's memory as 'poor' and said there was no need for Biden to access classified information. This move reflects ongoing tensions as Trump continues to challenge the legacy of his predecessor. Biden previously revoked Trump's access based on concerns about his behavior following the January 6 Capitol riot. This develops within a broader context of Trump's revocation of clearances for numerous former officials.
