Interesting political tidbit:
The DB Cooper case crossed paths today with the current political storm in Washington, D.C. concerning the stripping of security clearances.
The Washington Post is reporting that Tom Colbert's attorney, Mark Zaid, has entered the fray on behalf of embattled John Brennan, the former CIA chief under Obama. Here's the clip:
Mark Zaid, a national security lawyer in Washington, called Trump’s move unprecedented and said Brennan could pursue a due process claim. But he said it is unlikely that Brennan could win his clearance back.
“He may have a whistleblower claim because Trump tied it to Russia,” Zaid said.
“What we’re concerned about is how much further is it going to go?” he added, referring to other potential Trump targets.
