national security correspondent jennifer griffin joins us with more from washington. given the backlash, jennifer, after the revoking of john brennan's security clearance, will the president likely stop there? >> no. there are very clear signs, jon, that president trump is preparing to strip the security clearances of eight more top former intelligence officials and one current justice department employee for their role in the russia probe as well as their criticism of the president in recent months. in an interview last night former cia director john brennan warned about a wag the dog type situation, in which the president provokes a national security crisis to distract from unfavorable headlines. >> the fact that he's using a security clearance of a former cia director as a pawn in his public relations strategy i think is just so reflective of somebody who quite frankly -- don't want to use this term maybe -- but he's drunk on power. he really is. i think he's abusing the powers of that office. >> among those now in the president's sights former head of the fbi jame
