Off The Record
Joe Biden Recently Lost A Significant Privilege That All Previous Presidents Have
Since Joe Biden “could not be trusted,” Donald Trump has now revoked a significant privilege that all previous presidents have enjoyed.
Trump’s goal is to restructure the majority of his predecessor’s policies and usher in what he calls “America’s golden age” during his presidency.
Trump now claims that he can’t ‘be trusted’ and is rescinding the former president’s security clearance and daily intelligence briefing access, seemingly in a slight to Biden.

He wrote on his Truth Social platform, “There is no need for Joe Biden to continue receiving access to classified information.”
The Republican went on to say, “JOE, YOU’RE FIRED,” a reference to his catchphrase from the television program The Apprentice, which he has been using a lot lately to fire some of Biden’s former government employees.
Trump’s move coincides with his accusation that Biden had excluded him from the briefings for the first time during his 2021 administration.
Biden set this precedent’, he claimed, when ‘he asked the Intelligence Community (IC) to stop the 45th President of the United States (ME!) from accessing details on National Security, a courtesy accorded to prior Presidents.’
Trump also asserted that Biden “could not be trusted with sensitive information,” referencing an investigation into confidential file storage that revealed the 82-year-old had memory problems.
He wrote, “The Hur Report revealed that Biden suffers from “poor memory” and, even in his “prime,” could not be trusted with sensitive information. I will always protect our National Security.”
As a courtesy, all former presidents are invited to attend sensitive intelligence briefings; however, Biden denied Trump access in 2021.
Biden said Trump’s ‘erratic behavior’ was the deciding factor behind the move, adding, “What value is giving him an intelligence briefing? What impact does he have at all, other than the fact he might slip and say something?”
Numerous former CIA directors and scores of other former intelligence personnel have also had their security clearances revoked by Trump, who has accused them of influencing the 2020 election in favor of Biden.
Mark Milley, a senior US military commander and outspoken opponent of the Trump, is among those dismissed.
According to the BBC, Milley’s military grade has been reviewed and a probe into his “conduct” has been requested by Pete Hegseth, the new defense secretary.
Anthony Fauci, the president’s former main medical adviser, has also lost access to security information. Trump insisted that it was “very standard” to remove such individuals from the right, despite the fact that Fauci headed the US response to the coronavirus outbreak.
