Trump Says Son-In-Law’s Clearance Is Up To Kelly
« on: February 23, 2018, 09:57:41 pm »
WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump says he'll leave it up to chief of staff John Kelly to decide whether Trump's son-in-law, Jared Kushner, will keep his interim security clearance.

"I will let General Kelly make that decision and he's going to do what's right for the country and I have no doubt he'll make the right decision," Trump said during a joint press conference with Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull, where he addressed the security clearance issue for the first time.

Kushner is one of dozens of White House aides who have been working without permanent security clearances for the better part of a year.

I disagree.  Circle gets the square.

I would love to so Kelly oust the Kushners from the White House, but though Trump says it's up to Kelly, I highly doubt it and I think Kelly would be looking for another position.
I Believe in the United States of America as a Government of the people, by the people, for the people; whose just powers are derived from the consent of the governed; a democracy in a republic; a sovereign nation of many sovereign states; a perfect union one and inseparable; established upon those principles of freedom, equality, justice and humanity for which American patriots sacrificed their lives and fortunes.  I therefore believe it is my duty to my country to love it; to support its Constitution; to obey its laws to respect its flag; and to defend it against all enemies.
