De Blasio doesn’t have security clearance for classified info. Mayor Bill de Blasio does not have security clearance to get classified information from the feds — unlike his predecessors. The disturbing revelation comes just days before the 13th anniversary of the 9/11 terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.
A law enforcement source said Tuesday that if de Blasio does apply for clearance, he will have to endure an arduous vetting process that would include questions about his 1991 trip to Communist Cuba and support of the Marxist Sandinista regime during his visit to Nicaragua in the 1980s.
“He would automatically be questioned about his visit to Cuba and his contacts with the Sandinistas. He didn’t apply [for clearance] because he doesn’t want to go through that,” the source said. The lack of clearance could waste precious time in the event of an emergency. “[He] would have to jump through hoops” to get more detailed classified information, a source said.
Far left Portland, Ore., Mayor Charlie Hales, who also had contacts with the Sandinista regime applied for a security clearance but was turned down,the Oregonian newspaper reported in March.
Since 9/11, Islamic terrorists have hatched several plots to again attack New York City.
