House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff (D-Calif.) said Sunday that President Trump should no longer receive daily intelligence briefings and be prohibited from receiving such briefings once he leaves office.
In an interview on CBS’s “Face the Nation,” Schiff agreed with calls from Susan Gordon, Trump’s former principal deputy director of national intelligence, to cease providing Trump with intelligence immediately given his actions surrounding the riot that overtook the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6.
“There’s no circumstance in which this president should get another intelligence briefing, not now, not in the future. I don’t think he can be trusted with it now, and in the future he certainly can’t be trusted,” Schiff said.
