President Donald Trump in a Friday night memo rescinded any existing security clearances and access to classified information for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former
President Donald Trump issued a memo Friday night rescinding security clearances and access to classified information for 15 individuals, including former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, former Vice President Kamala Harris, and other prominent current and former officials.
“I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information,” the memo states, directing all executive agencies to revoke any active clearances and prohibit access to classified briefings or secure facilities without escort.
Other individuals named include former Reps. Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger, former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, former National Security Adviser Jake Sullivan, and New York Attorney General Letitia James. The memo also applies to all members of the Biden family.
Many listed had already lost their clearances earlier this month under an order from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard. Clinton’s clearance had previously been withdrawn in 2018 at her request.
Trump previously revoked intelligence access for former President Joe Biden and Secret Service protection for Biden’s children, Hunter and Ashley.
