Russia collusion officials lose security clearance

 NY Post: Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced security clearances had been pulled from 37 current and former officials who “abused public trust by politicizing and manipulating” information — including several who were involved in a controversial, President Barack Obama-ordered assessment of Russian influence in the 2016 election .

While Tulsi continues to hoist former Clinton and Obama officials and allies up on their own petards, the hoistees are casting about for ways to deflect the damage.

The ink was scarcely dry before they were being torched in the new media - you know, the media outlets and opinion writers that aren't a  de facto arm of the Democrat party . James Clapper and John Brennan penned an op-ed in The New York Times defending their Russian collusion hoax peddling. Do these men have no shame? It’s a rhetorical question. Of course, they don’t. But the piece was published before the release of the declassified annex of the Durham report, which investigated the origins of the Russian col...
