Joe Biden Recently Lost A Significant Privilege That All Previous Presidents Have

Donald Trump has revoked Joe Biden’s security clearance and access to daily intelligence briefings, breaking from tradition.

Trump stated that Biden could not be trusted with sensitive information and emphasized his stance with a familiar phrase, “JOE, YOU’RE FIRED,” which he’s used as he removes former Biden officials from government positions.

Trump’s decision follows his accusation that Biden denied him intelligence briefings during the 2021 transition, setting a precedent. He also referenced the Hur Report, which raised concerns about Biden’s memory, and questioned his ability to handle classified material.

Former presidents typically receive access to classified briefings, but Biden had previously denied this to Trump in 2021, citing Trump’s “erratic behavior” and questioning the value of providing him with intelligence updates.
