Nominated Notable LB but not in Notes…Would like to get a digg on this lady, seems like another "mole" in the WH….last re-post''
Call for a DIGG on Tricia Newbold
Who the heck is this bureaucratic that's trying to undermine the Trump administration, by implying that they are allowing people to get security clearances who are a "grave" risk to security in the WH?
A small digg was started in Jan, but didn't turn up that much (see below). But last night, there was a discussion on Laura Ingraham suggesting that Trish might be a disgruntled employee, not a heroic whistleblower. Video link: https://youtu.be/rAxZovrHEgw

Breitbart on Tricia Newbold & WH security clearances
"White House official cites problems in security clearances"
Apr 2019
WASHINGTON (AP) — A career official in the White House security office says dozens of people in President Donald Trump’s administration were granted security clearances despite “disqualifying issues” in their backgrounds, including concerns about foreign influence, drug use and criminal conduct.
Tricia Newbold, an 18-year government employee who oversaw the issuance of clearances for some senior White House aides, says she compiled a list of at least 25 officials who were initially denied security clearances last year, but senior officials overruled those denials. The allegations were detailed in a letter and memo released Monday by Rep. Elijah Cummings, D-Md., chairman of the House Oversight and Reform Committee. The documents, which are based on Newbold’s March 23 private committee interview, don’t identify the officials on the list but say they include “two current senior White House officials, as well as contractors and individuals” in different parts of the Executive Office of the President.
“According to Ms. Newbold, these individuals had a wide range of serious disqualifying issues involving foreign influence, conflicts of interest, concerning personal conduct, financial problems, drug use and criminal conduct,” the memo says. The release of the documents sets up another fight between the White House and the Democratic-controlled House, and it immediately drew criticism from House Republicans who called the allegations overblown and “cherry-picked.”…….
Rep. Jim Jordan of Ohio, the committee’s ranking Republican, said in a statement that Cummings’ probe is a “partisan attack” and an “excuse to go fishing” through personnel files. He also said that one person on Newbold’s list is a GSA custodian.
