Who here wants to apply for a job in the White House?

[Ilsa]

Rachel Maddow, in her A block, has reported the Chief of Staff Kelly has sent a memo out that classified information wi.l no longer be accessible to staff who do not yet have a permanent security clearance.

That includes Jared Kushner and 129 other staffers in the WH. Looks like there could be a lot of layoffs by Friday unless their status changes.

Kushner out?

1. Orange Foolius aways hires the best people.

In fact, nobody halfway respectable or competent (or who could pass a background check for a security clearance) wants to work there, because having that blot on your resume would be a career-killer. So they aren't going to hire the best people. Maybe not any people.

5. Well, maybe they "were" the best and after hanging around the criminal in chief, they were tainted?

[KewlKat]

2. Well, I already have the clearance so i could get to work right away!

8. You could be the next leaker!

Or better, a spy to arrange his total downfall. It's time for everyone to see him for the LOSER he is.

3. Look for Donnie to grant presidential overrides

4. Yeah, that's what I think..........he'll waive them

6. Im thinking hell just grant them permanent clearances by executive order

12. Likely true. But Dems should keep riding them non-stop about it

after this week. Its been 10+ days now and they STILL have no answer.
This issue strikes deep in the opposition. It is a legitimate issue. Our nations most guarded secrets.
They must go ASAP.

14. What do clearances matter when they all work for putin?

[poboy2]

15. Hammer, hammer, hammer.

They must go ASAP. The court of public opinion will be clear.
It is not a knockout punch, but they have no defense. They are on the ropes on this issue.

7. That's my guess as well.

DOTUS can't afford to lose that ,any people, especially the buxom gal who reads his PDB to him every morning while he's parked on the toilet.

9. I could pass the background check

And I may actually be qualified for some positions - so it would never happen.

[Ilsa]

10. LOL. So dotus won't let you be one of the "best people?"

Apply anyway! Be our leakker. Be our spy!

[Generic Brad]

13. Hell to the no

The West Wing is too toxic to survive at this time.

[democratisphere]

16. Kushner will be transferred to coffee boy status.

17. While I too would not qualify for a top secret clearance

I'll pass. Toxic environment.
