CNN’s Philip Mudd Blows Up Tells Trump supporter: We're done. Get out!

I remember Judge Elis running his mouth and I remember the judge apologizing for giving the prosecution a hard time over some innane thing he said tonthe prosecution.

 

I

I knew there was something about him that was not right.

Yet his sexual orientation has nothing to do with his conservative views. I take it that he committed some homosexual act, right?

 

Three solid news sources that are not tainted with either crazy liberalism nor crazy rightwingism.

 

So if some are not to keep their clreance what is the criteria for those who are defrocked?

 

There's no reason for ANY of them to have continued clearance. The "transition bridge argument" is actually bullshit when those who use it expect it for life. It should only be recommissioned when necessary for a specific purpose. Otherwise, it's just another reason people go into politics and government service. Nobody ever became a 'public servant " to spend millions to campaign to collect a paltry annual check. Wise up. You are smarter than this. Having a security clearance works the exact same way under the current system.

 

If you really believe that no one should hold onto their security clearances after they leave office I actually agree. I believe it should be all or none. I did not keep my secret clearance when I finished my service years with the Air Force. The major insurance company I worked did lot let me keep security access ton insured policy or claim records after I retired.

 

If Mudd had been reasonably discussing the issue with the other guest that would have been an excellent question to ask.

 

Disagree. The question of keeping or not keeping security clearances should all or none. If the decision is al the only check is if someone had committed a crime by violating a secret. Otherwise if one keeps it they all do.

The way Mudd came accross is on Mudd not on Brenner or others.

 

You should check out the Neil Cavuto video on HuffPost. He tells Trump in detail the he is the problem.. that he can't threaten to create a financial problem to cover his lies.

 

You disagree with who should have answered your question?

I'm not sure what you disagree with?

 

Something got lost in the Quote Reply chain...

 

I just thought your question to me was a valid one. I don't have an answer. I was just saying it would have been a good question for Mudd to have asked the other guest. I would have been interested in hearing his answer.

 

Ok I was looking back and yes you are correct that would have been good. Mudd just got sompissed at the Paris clown that he just lost it.

 

Mudd became unhinged which makes me question how good of a CIA agent he was. I also disagree with you regarding Paris. He clearly and professionally made his point that not all former government employees should keep their clearances which I don't disagree with. Was he wrong that many make money off their clearances? It was hard to tell what Mudd was saying through all his angry yelling.

 

We are told that the minions, must keep security clearances issued as a condition of their employment for Government. I think what he means is he wants to keep being a talking head on TV. But if he requested his be pulled, I guess we will find out if the Govt. pulls it. When will the list of actually got pulled be released by CNN?

 

It hasn't been my observation that CNN follows up with their propaganda.

Perhaps they understand their click bait is generally only good for one push, maybe two. After that, they've probably learned they need to come up with new stuff to keep the gullible coming back for more.

 

Here is my take: Mudd did get unhinged but that has nothing to do with his having been a CIA agent. If he acted that way on a regular basis or he'll even occaisionally when an agent he most likely would have been dead or gone. Letting some people keep their clearance but others not is not a rational way to do that. How and who makes the decision ? The problem comes out in shades with what Trump perpetrated with Brenner.

I would err on the side of everyone loses their clearance rather than let some POTUS who has the mental and emotional prophile of a middle school girl aka Trump to decide.

 

Trumps advisers no doubt fully approve this and more than likely brought it to Trump's attention as to pulling clearances.

Pulled or not, Brenner won't shut up.

 

I do not care if Trump's "advisors" brought this to him or not. He did it. And that was an act of political revenge and that is wrong in my book.

 

Brenner was acting in a fit of rage and was practicing revenge. Trump happens to be president so it is wrong to claim he is guilty of treason. Brenner would have been smarter to claim he would love to see Trump charged, but could not simply declare Trump committed treason.

 

Mudd was furious at the black man. Notice CNN did not call him racist.

 

Did Mudd react that way because that blithering Bozo was Black?

 

Unfortunately for some Trump is the president and he can take away security clearances if he chooses.

 

I am not arguing that TLK doesn't have the right Inam calling it the wrong thing to do.

 

And I respect your opinion.
