As a rule, Trump and bidges do not leave good hair together. The Republican apparently did not forget that Biden made him access to secret service information four years ago.

US President Donald Trump deprives his predecessor Joe Biden the security releases. “There is no need to continue to have access to secret information,” Trump wrote on his online language tube Truth Social. For example, the democrat should no longer receive daily intelligence agencies. Trump justified the step with the fact that Biden had also withdrawn access to certain information from national security after taking office in 2021. At that time, Biden cited Trump’s “erratic behavior” as the reason. Usually, former presidents still have a certain security approval.

Trump also justified his decision with the report by the special investigator Robert Hur, who had examined Bidens document affair. Hur had spoken to the then president for several hours for several hours. The exchange served as an important basis for Hur’s report, which in the end did not see any criminal charges against bidges, but described the Democrat as a “well -meaning older man with a bad memory”. Among other things, this led to questions about bidens suitability for the presidency.

Hur’s report showed that bidges could not be entrusted with sensitive information, Trump continued. “I will always protect our national security,” said the Republican. He added in Versalia: “Joe, you are fired.”
