Topic	Biden says Trump shouldn't get intel briefings.
brestugo 02/05/21 7:19:03 PM #10:	Arcanine2009 posted... why should former presidents get intel briefings? wtf. Unless it has to do with their safety Ex presidents, generals, admirals, ex CIA, FBI, NSA chiefs get briefings as part of a "contact group" that current presidents (et.al.) use as a sounding board. IIRC, started around the time of JFK who liked to call Truman and Eisenhower. It is customary but not the law. It IS the law that they must be able to maintain a security clearance however. Drumpf is a risk. Signed, Ex intel guy. --- Not everyone is suitable to kill a lion - Maasai proverb. <cite>brestugo posted [p:950323120] in Biden says...
