CNN reports:
President Donald Trump on Friday said he was removing former President Joe Biden’s access to classified information by revoking his security clearance and stopping his daily intelligence briefings. “There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information, Trump said in a post on his Truth Social platform. “Therefore, we are immediately revoking Joe Biden’s Security Clearances and stopping his daily Intelligence Briefings.”
The practical effect of Trump’s claim to revoke Biden’s security clearance is an open question. Former presidents typically do not have security clearances. As president, they have access to all classified information. Upon leaving office, they do not. But Trump’s decision to restrict Biden’s access to intelligence briefings comes exactly four years after Biden made the same move against Trump, citing his “erratic behavior” before and after the January 6, 2021, attack on the US Capitol.

1. President Trump says former President Biden can’t access classified information anymore.
Just a few things…
U.S. Presidents don’t have a security clearance; they have access to classified information by virtue of their position.

“You’re fired.”
How can Trump fire Biden from a position he no longer holds?
The man’s a blithering idiot.

Zeleny: If you’re a former president, unless you had a security clearance before from, say, a previous job and perhaps the FBI or the intelligence community, you do not have a security clearance.. pic.twitter.com/Yip0Zi0P1P
