NBC: ‘Whistleblower’ in White House security clearance office is suspended
Tricia Newbold was suspended less than a week after NBC reported Jared Kushner’s top-secret security clearance was approved over staff objections.
So many layers to this story but the obvious question is was this retribution?
A whistle-blower told my @NBCNews colleagues her supervisor "approved Jared Kushner for a top-secret clearance over the objections of career staff."
Now, she has been suspended without pay.
