Frank Kendall's Security Clearance Revoked After Air Force One Disclosure

The U.S. Department of War has taken the significant step of revoking former Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall's eligibility to access classified information. This action is a direct result of what the department describes as an unauthorized disclosure related to the capabilities of Air Force One. Pentagon spokesperson Sean Parnell announced the revocation on social media, stating that it is effective immediately and also bars Kendall from holding any sensitive position. Parnell emphasized that safeguarding classified information is a critical responsibility, and those who breach that trust will lose their privileges. Kendall served as Secretary of the Air Force under President Joe Biden, and this decision marks a notable development in the oversight of classified information within the military.
