Sanders's full list of people about whom Trump is "evaluating action": Clapper, Comey, Hayden, Yates, Rice, McCabe, Strzok, Page, Ohr.

Comey, McCabe no longer have clearance. Sanders says Trump may prevent people who no longer have them from re-obtaining them.

Their actual party registration or voting record are of no consequence.

I would expect there was a cultural principle of silence, but since Trump likes to break culture and upend traditions.... maybe this will bite him in the ass.

to revoke the security clearances of his critics. (via CBS)
