Stephen Bannon, President Trump’s fired chief strategist, has now returned to Breitbart News, the company he used to run. He described his exit from the White House as a great weight lifted off him. “I’ve got my hands back on my weapons,” he said, promising to use his job to go to “war” for Trump’s agenda.

Enter critics who have raised the question about whether use of the information Bannon gathered on the job would be a violation of Bannon’s top secret security clearance. The Hill took the question to a national security lawyer.
