"The Insider Threat: How America's Enemies Undermine It from Within" with Adam Lovinger

The abuse of security clearances as a political weapon within the U.S. national security bureaucracy threatens not just individual careers but the integrity of American defense and diplomacy, both in the Middle East and more broadly. What is the nature of the problem? How are security clearances used to silence dissent and eliminate adversaries? How does this affect U.S. responses to strategic challenges?
