Biden Bars Trump from Getting Intelligence Briefings

Feb. 6 , 2021 (EIRNS)—President Joe Biden told CBS News reporter Nora O’Donnell yesterday that he would bar former President Donald Trump from getting intelligence briefings, a courtesy normally extended to former presidents. While Biden cited Trump’s alleged erratic behavior as the reason, the New York Times’ David Sanger added another big lie to the justification, arguing that Trump might misuse or pass on classified information to America’s enemies. House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA), who ran the fake Russiagate investigation and clings to the claim that Trump is a Russian agent despite his failure to ever prove it, claimed just before Biden’s inauguration that there were cases of U.S. allies “who probably started withholding information from us because they didn’t trust the President would safeguard that information, and protect their sources and methods. And that makes us less safe. We’ve seen this president politicize intelligence, and that’s another risk to the country.”

This is the first time such a step has ever been taken against an ex-President, and is part of the British-run campaign to wipe Trump off the political map altogether, and even to turn him into a non-person. As Biden explained: “I just think that there is no need for him to have the intelligence briefings. What value is giving him an intelligence briefing? What impact does he have at all, other than the fact he might slip and say something?”
