As I predicted, someone from the Trump orbit said that the FBI was deliberately trying to undermine Trump by not approving security clearances and by contradicting White House statements. Of course it was only Sebastian Gorka, whose own security clearance was denied and whose veracity is doubted by most reasonable people.
The excuse that these people are new to Washington doesn't work very well now. These men and women, for the most part, have all been around the block more than once, and some of them were even good at their previous jobs. But watching the machinations and gyrations of language has become like watching kabuki theater--everyone wears a mask and no one represents the truth.
