The Trump White House prepares to lay siege to the administrative state.
On national security, Trump’s tightness with Paul is now paying dividends—for both sides. In addition to Russia, Trump secured Paul’s vote in favor of Mike Pompeo for secretary of State, even after a clearly-upset Paul had declared he would not vote for Pompeo or Gina Haspel at CIA. Paul’s vote against Haspel was a foregone conclusion, but on Pompeo, a pragmatic rising star , the president was able to get his way with the Kentucky senator, in exchange for Pompeo declaring he viewed the 2003 Iraq War a mistake.

It's fascinating to see how Brennan -- and his new bosses at CNN -- are so pissed off about his security clearance getting revoked. Clearly, it must have been important to him.
I wonder if perhaps there are some "old friends" at the CIA who Brennan can no longer access?

Yes but now that is officially leaking intelligence. They are getting blinded and becoming deaf slowly.
