CNN Former national security adviser Susan Rice fired back at President Trump's claim that the Obama administration should have properly vetted Trump's former national security adviser Michael Flynn. "That's rich," Rice told CNN's Fareed Zakaria when she was asked to respond on Sunday. "Let me explain how this process works. First of all, a former military officer such as General Flynn, who wants to retain his security clearance, would go through a process with his home agency, in this case the Defense Intelligence Agency, to have his clearance reviewed and renewed," Rice said, adding that clearance renewal happens at a "very routine level, never at a political level." She continued: "But that's a very separate thing — the renewal of a clearance — from the vetting that goes into the appointment of any senior White House official, or any senior administration official.
