By Rachael Bade Rachael Bade Congressional reporter Email Bio Follow April 2 at 2:40 PM A House panel voted Tuesday to subpoena a former White House official accused of overturning denials for security clearances after a whistleblower complained that the Trump administration had put the nation’s most guarded secrets in jeopardy.
Newbold also said she has counted more than 25 security clearance denials that had been approved since 2018 despite red flags about applicants’ foreign contacts, conflicts of interest, past criminality, drug use or other misconduct. Officials in at least four countries have privately discussed ways they can manipulate Kushner by taking advantage of his complex business arrangements, financial difficulties and lack of foreign policy experience, according to current and former U.S. officials familiar with intelligence reports on the matter.
Kushner was referring to conclusions of a report by special counsel Robert S. Mueller III delivered to senior leaders at the Justice Department. After reviewing the report, Attorney General William P. Barr sent a four-page letter to Congress last week, saying Mueller “did not find that the Trump campaign or anyone associated with it conspired or coordinated with Russia in its efforts to influence the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

Fools errand
Once again the house is wasting taxpayer money I have yet to see them push for any type of Bill that would help Americans
Good. Subpoena everything. It's not a witchhunt when realDonaldTrump is an actual witch.
I can’t read any of your articles because they’re behind a paywall

it's about time.
Ya know what they say?! Elections have consequences!!!
Thank god we have RepCummings RepAdamSchiff tedlieu RepSwalwell SpeakerPelosi SenSchumer and every other Dem working to expose and end the corruption in this country. THANK YOU PATRIOTS!
For God sake, why don't the Republican's investigate and prosecute the Democrats and let's just finally put them in jail so Trump can get some work done.
Okay, good! Then they’ll learn that Trump did indeed override the denials and did so for personal reasons...then, what will happen? The answer starts with the letter “N”.
Lies! Fake! Nothing to READ HERE FOLKS BECAUSE WAPO REFUSES TO REPORT WHAT IS REALLY GOING ON!
I'm glad the Trump and his Republican thugs are being introduced to the word: accountability. The word has been absence from government since 2016.
It just seems that everything this corrupt administration does is with ill intent. I guess when you are a criminal everyone you hire is also a criminal.
FYI: duly elected President has executive privilege to give anyone Security clearance.
Just more liberal propaganda from The Washington Post. Is the Washington Post failing faster than the New York times,?

Democrats threaten subpoenas over White House security clearances for Kushner, othersHouse Oversight Democrats are intensifying their search for answers about White House security clearances, preparing a subpoena as soon as this week for the former White House personnel security director to testify. BolsonaroDay When one cannot govern in the best interest of a nation. I gather one subpoena's everything. Here's a better question: Samantha Power’s name was used to request the unmasking of over 260+ names in 2016. Why was Power (or someone using her name?) unmasking so many American’s that she/they averaged more than 1 request for every working day in 2016?

Facebook says it will now block white nationalist, white separatist postsFacebook on Wednesday said it would begin banning posts, photos and other content that reference white nationalism and white separatism, revising its rules in response to criticism that a loophole had allowed racism to thrive on its platform. Previously, Facebook only had prohibited users from sharing messages that glorified white supremacy -- a rhetorical discrepancy, in the eyes of civil-rights advocates, who argued that white nationalism, supremacy and separatism are indistinguishable and that the policy undermined the tech giant's stepped-up efforts to combat hate speech online.

Facebook bans white nationalism and white separatismFacebook banning 'praise, support and representation of white nationalism and separatism on Facebook and Instagram,' because that 'it’s clear that these concepts are deeply linked to organized hate groups and have no place on our services.' What about Black Nationalism, Hispanic Nationalism? Hell, at this rate, will Nationalism be a four letter word? well facebook must want to lose user faster How much of the praise for white nationalism is just another hoax, Jussie Smollett style? My guess is much of it.
