I had forgotten about this scandal.
"The House Oversight Committee is launching an investigation into the White House security clearance process, an inquiry that promises to put a spotlight on how President Donald Trump's senior adviser and son-in-law, Jared Kushner, overcame concerns to gain access to highly classified information.
"The Committee on Oversight and Reform is launching an in-depth investigation of the security clearance process at the White House and Transition Team in response to grave breaches of national security at the highest levels of the Trump Administration," Rep. Elijah E. Cummings, the Chairman of the Committee on Oversight and Reform, said in a letter to the White House obtained by NBC News."
"For the past two years, I have sought information with other Committee Members about a series of extremely troubling incidents regarding the security clearances of some of President Trump's top aides, but the White House has refused to provide the information we requested, often ignoring our requests completely."
Cummings' letter seeks information about reports of security clearance issues involving multiple current and former officials, including:
• Senior Adviser to the President Jared Kushner
• National Security Advisor John Bolton
• Former National Security Advisor Michael Flynn
• Flynn's son, Michael Flynn, Jr.
