Kendall Seeks Restoration After Revocation Over Classified Information Allegations
Former Air Force Secretary Frank Kendall has announced plans to sue the Trump administration to restore his security clearance, which was revoked last week over allegations of disclosing sensitive information about the Qatari-gifted jet serving as Air Force One. Kendall, who has denied the allegations, has hired prominent national security attorney Mark Zaid to represent him in the case. The lawsuit is the latest development in a series of controversies surrounding the Trump administration’s use of security clearances, and may have implications for the aerospace and defense industries.
