Agreed! Once you are no longer in office one should automatically lose their clearance.

If, for some reasons related to National Security come along to make it necessary to “read that person in” on the Intel, than that could be handled strictly on a case by case basis, with distinct and narrow parameters.

Perhaps a law in this regard needs to be passed.

There would be major advantages to pulling security clearances when people leave office. But I would NOT have liked Trump losing his clearance 2021-2025.

Yep and the demented old fool who has left secret documents scattered all over had his revoked for cause.
