Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has revoked the security clearances of at least 37 current and former top government officials, accusing them of “abusing the public trust” and manipulating and leaking documents.
Gabbard recently revived the “Russiagate” furore of the president’s first term by recommending that the Justice Department investigate several Obama-era intelligence personnel, including former FBI director James Comey, ex-CIA director John Brennan and her predecessor James Clapper, after accusing them of “manufacturing” evidence of Kremlin meddling in an effort delegitimize the Trump’s victory over Hillary Clinton in 2016.
