[ConservativeTreehouse] Leaker Identified – Dept of War Revokes Security Clearance for Former Secretary of Airforce, Frank Kendall
After a controversial leak investigation, which included New York DOJ subpoenas to collaborating journalists, it appears the Dept of War has identified the source of the Airforce One security compromise, former Secretary of the Airforce, Frank Kendall.
May God damn him to the deepest level of Hell. He has absolutely no excuse.
Disgraced former Biden appointee and staunch activist democrat Frank Kendall has now lost his security clearance, and his nongovernmental career as a contractor, consultant and lobbyist within the area of military procurement. Kendall can no longer hold any sensitive position in the private sector that touches on Pentagon programs.
(Via Dept of War via X) – Effective immediately, the Department of War has REVOKED former Secretary of the Air Force Frank Kendall’s eligibility for access to classified information and his ability to hold any sensitive position.
This action follows his unauthorized disclosure of classified information regarding Air Force One’s capabilities to a media outlet.
Safeguarding classified information is a non-negotiable duty. Those who violate that trust forfeit the privilege of access and any role requiring it. (source)
This type of duplicitous scheming is one of the reasons why DC didn’t want Secretary of War, Pete Hegseth. DC wanted someone they could count on to undermine President Trump.
Kendall served as secretary of the Air Force under former President Joe Biden from 2021 until January 2025. He previously served as the Pentagon’s undersecretary of defense for acquisition, technology and logistics during the Obama administration.
Kendall also has a longstanding connection to the Air Force One modernization program.
In 2015, while serving as the Pentagon’s acquisition chief, Kendall coordinated with then-Air Force Secretary Deborah Lee James on the decision to use the Boeing 747-8 platform for the next generation of presidential aircraft.
A representative for Kendall did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital's request for comment.

And it gets even worse: the contract began in 2021 after a BIDEN TRANSITION TEAM MEMBER Andrew Lorenzen-Strait JOINED THE NGO.
According to government disclosure forms, the organization’s revenues skyrocketed in 2021, increasing from $50 million to $658 million, before reaching a peak of $1.1 billion in 2022.

This makes a good argument for the purge of all of the previous administration appointees whenever a new POTUS moves into the White House. There is no reason for them to keep their jobs and security clearances in perpetuity, especially when all indications are that they will do whatever they can to undermine the duly elected POTUS. Kick 'em all out, all the from the cabinet level to the lowliest janitor, and most especially the judges.

Let it be known hinted at that he was given up by the reporters. It probably wasn't, but it helps to sow suspicion and betrayal in the enemy of the people

I can't decide if this is good or bad news. I like Alito and Thomas, but neither is young. Losing control of the Senate in the mid-terms means the loss of any of the conservative judges will get replaced by whomever can make it through a Senate vote. However, that could apply to the current Senate as well.
