LOL. Obama is a butthole, and should be criticized for this.

What’s your opinion on the Ben Rhodes deal? Complete clusterF, or perfectly OK for the WH to have ppl in top positions doing their jobs wit interim clearances?

I’m consistently in opposition to this. Are you?

Article says Rhodes was denied an interim clearance.

Don't these people still have access to classified info from some last minute change Obama made on the way out? I thought that was part of the way he got all the Russian Collusion BS out into the public, so idiots like Susan Rice can still get it after leaving.

Ok, so Obama is still a butthole. What's your point?

in fairness, Obama would have been declined a clearance too with his ties to terrorists and other shady characters in his orbit.

Interim clearances are granted when most, if not all, of the background investigation has been completed and there are no red flags. Final adjudication and processing still needs to be done but it is generally believed there is nothing that will hold up the clearance being granted. It's done all the time in both public and private sector when a new group of clearances need to be issued.

Did his collection of czars need clearances?

Wasn’t the fact that they didn’t need clearances, and probably couldn’t have gotten them, the main reason for his czar cabinet?

Being denied an interim clearance is kind of a big deal. It means something threw up a red flag. Nine times out of ten the person is never granted a clearance.
