‘Joe, You’re Fired’: Trump Strips Biden’s Security Clearance
In a shocking and unprecedented move, former President Donald Trump has reportedly stripped President Joe Biden of his security clearance, declaring, “Joe, you’re fired!” The development comes amid ongoing tensions between the two political rivals, further escalating their long-standing feud.
According to sources close to Trump, the decision was made after he accused Biden of being “a threat to national security.” Speaking at a rally, Trump claimed, “Sleepy Joe has been reckless with classified information, and we can’t trust him with our nation’s secrets. He’s done—totally done!” The audience erupted in cheers, reinforcing the deep political divide between Trump supporters and Biden’s base.
Legal experts, however, have pointed out that Trump, as a private citizen, has no authority to revoke Biden’s security clearance. Typically, such decisions are made by intelligence agencies and the current administration. “This is pure political theater,” said constitutional scholar Lisa Harrington. “Trump has no legal grounds to take this action.”
The Biden administration quickly responded, dismissing Trump’s statement as “nonsensical.” White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre addressed reporters, stating, “President Biden continues to lead the country with dignity and resolve. Any claims that he has lost security clearance are categorically false.”
Despite the lack of legal backing, Trump’s declaration has sent shockwaves through the political landscape, with his supporters rallying behind the move and critics calling it a dangerous attack on democratic norms.
As 2024 approaches, this latest stunt may signal Trump’s continued influence over the Republican base—and a preview of the intense political battles still to come. Whether it holds any real weight remains to be seen, but one thing is certain: the Trump-Biden rivalry is far from over.
