AllSides Media Bias Rating: Lean Right
President Donald Trump said on Friday he is “immediately revoking” Joe Biden’s security clearance and pulling his access to daily intelligence briefings, exacting payback four years after the former president had done the same to him.
“There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information,” Trump posted on Truth Social.
Biden revoked Trump’s security clearance weeks after taking office in 2021, arguing the Republican exhibited “erratic behavior” at the time. The move came after the January 6 Capitol riot, which Democrats alleged Trump played a role in stoking.
