     Two House Democrats wrote a letter to acting White House Chief of Staff Mick Mulvaney requesting he revoke the security clearance for senior Trump advisor Jared Kushner.
    "The White House's pattern of hiding the truth and devious behavior with regard to Mr. Kushner's security clearance suggests that the Administration does not take information security seriously," the lawmakers wrote.
    Democrats on the House Oversight and Reform Committee are probing many of the security clearances in the Trump White House.

WASHINGTON — Two House Democrats are requesting that the acting White House chief of staff, Mick Mulvaney, revoke the security clearance for President Donald Trump's senior advisor and son-in-law Jared Kusher.

In a letter to Mulvaney on Thursday, Reps. Don Beyer of Virginia and Ted Lieu of California requested that Kushner's clearance be pulled, citing a recent NBC report that a supervisor overruled the recommendation he not be approved for clearance.
