Seriously? Political Correctness / slippery slope?

The guy had a restraining order on him that kept him from getting security clearance. I’m surprised he lasted this long.

If they are Republicans, especially Trump Republicans then part of that loyalty oath thingy Trumpy insists on is that the vetting gene has to be removed.
I wonder when they’ll start posting for applications on Indeed or LinkedIn?

I’m old enough to remember Empty Barrel Kelly lecturing us that, back in his day, menfolk was respectful of ladies! It was the Code of the West!

Both of Porter’s ex-wives told the Intercept that they told the FBI that Porter abused them in interviews for his security clearance. Kelly was aware of a 2010 protective order Willoughby obtained against Porter and the order kept Porter from obtaining a full security clearance, a senior administration official told Politico.

They know, But frankly, they don’t give a d***
