Trump Revokes Security Clearances Of Law Firm Involved In Hillary Clinton Russian Collusion Hoax
6 weeks ago
President Donald Trump says he is suspending the security clearances of attorneys at a law firm involved in launching since-discredited opposition research during the 2016 presidential campaign accusing Trump of colluding with Russia.
The sanction against Perkins Coie – who worked on behalf of Hilary Clinton - is the latest in a series of moves by Trump and his administration weeding out corruption and weaponization in D.C. including Justice Department prosecutors, career intelligence officials and most recently private-practice attorneys. Taken together, the actions appear to send a message that politicization will not be tolerated and to also deter government officials from engaging in unethical, possibly illegal activities then pulling in private sector workers to help them.
