I wonder if Brennan (and the other Trump enemies who are soon going to have their security clearances stripped) could sue. The executive branch has complete discretion over who gets a security clearance. But the executive branch (like every other branch of government) is not allowed to retaliate against people just for exercising their First Amendment right to criticize the president.
This is way outside my area of the law, but Brennan should sue just to clarify the law and to maybe get the President to pause before he strips the next critic of his or her clearance.
