Trump says he is ending Biden's security clearances, daily intelligence briefings

U.S. President Donald Trump said on Friday that he is ending former President Joe Biden's security clearances and stopping his daily intelligence briefings. Trump noted that Biden suffers from poor memory and couldn't be trusted with sensitive information.

Trump also pointed out that Biden "set this precedent" in 2021, when he instructed the Intelligence Community to stop then ex-president Trump, from accessing details on national security, "a courtesy provided to former Presidents." Shortly after taking office in 2021, Biden said he did not believe Trump should have access to intelligence briefings because of his "erratic behavior" and worries that he might disclose sensitive information to others.
