Donald Trump revokes security clearances of ex-Vice President Kamala Harris, others

Trump's latest move came just a month after he announced revoking former President Joe Biden's security clearance.

The memo issued on Friday also announced Trump was rescinding the security clearances of the entire Biden family. 

Friday's memo applies to 'receipt of classified briefings, such as the President's Daily Brief, and access to classified information held by any member of the Intelligence Community by virtue of the named individuals' previous tenure in the Congress', reported CBS News.

"I have determined that it is no longer in the national interest for the following individuals to access classified information," Trump's memorandum as quoted by BBC.

Former Secretary of State Antony Blinken and former Republican lawmakers Liz Cheney and Adam Kinzinger also lost their security clearances.

The other names were: Jake Sullivan, Lisa Monaco, Mark Zaid, Norman Eisen, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, Andrew Weissmann and Alexander Vindman, reported BBC.

Apart from politicians, Trump had previously pulled the security clearances of a large number of US intelligence officials.

He accused them of meddling in the 2020 Presidential polls which went to Biden's favour.

Trump reportedly did not provide evidence to prove his move.

Biden Revoked Trump's Security Clearance

In 2021, Biden had revoked the security clearance for Trump who was then the former President of the country.

Donald Trump returned to power for his second term last year by beating his political opponent Kamala Harris in high-voltage Presidential polls.

Trump had previously served as the President from 2017 to 2021 after winning the Presidential polls in 2016.

Despite losing a re-election bid in 2021 and suffering defeat against Joe Biden, Trump returned to power last year.

He took oath as the President on January 21.
