Rep. Sean Patrick Maloney, the former staff secretary to President Clinton, said the Rob Porter scandal in the White House isn’t just a moral issue but a national security problem as well.

The FBI’s background check process is so deep that it wouldn’t have taken long to know that Porter, who has been accused of abusing his two ex-wives, wouldn’t receive a security clearance.
