The Pentagon has officially revoked the security clearance of retired CIA operative Susan Miller, the same deep-state loyalist who falsely claimed she played a leadership role in the bogus 2017 Intelligence Community Assessment (ICA) that sparked the years-long coup attempt against President Donald Trump.
Two Trump administration officials confirmed to The Federalist that Miller’s clearance has been terminated.
Miller, a longtime senior CIA officer, has spent years flaunting her “full clearance” as a credential while making the media rounds to trash Trump and defend the debunked collusion hoax.
“This woman should never hold a high-level clearance after pushing the Russia Hoax,” one senior Defense official told The Federalist. “All she did was lie to the American people to hurt Trump.”
Despite corporate media portraying her as “an author” of the ICA, internal sources and senior intelligence officials told Racket News’ Matt Taibbi she was not the author nor did she lead the team.
“Not an author. Not involved,” one official said flatly.
Nonetheless, Miller continued to parade herself as the mastermind behind the flawed report even bragging on left-wing podcasts that she “headed up” the team.
That ICA, which claimed Russia interfered in the 2016 election to elect Trump, was concocted under then-CIA Director John Brennan and DNI James Clapper, despite warnings from career analysts that the “intel” didn’t meet CIA standards. The assessment became the cornerstone of the media-Democrat-Trump-hating intel machine for years until it was exposed as a fraud.
More from The Federalist:
Miller should be grateful. The deeply flawed intelligence assessment she has taken credit for may go down as one of the most politically driven, undemocratic spy reports in American history.

While Miller appears to have exaggerated her role in the ICA, the deep stater, now sans security clearance, certainly has sprung to its defense.
“We definitely had the intel to show with high probability that the specific goal of the Russians was to get Trump elected,” she said. The records refute that, and she has acknowledged no evidence of “two‑way collusion” between Trump’s campaign and Russia.
Miller has sharply criticized Trump CIA Director John Ratcliffe, insisting that his move to declassify intelligence records and forward a criminal referral to the DOJ was “‘100 percent’ political” and aimed at placating Trump.
And the retired CIA official on the SpyTalk podcast accused Trump of “acting … like Putin,” and “at a minimum, like a dictator.”

A senior administration official told The Federalist that Miller has deservedly lost the trust of the intelligence community she once worked for.
“Russian Hoaxers sought to undermine President Trump’s entire first term in office. A woman involved in the Russia Hoax cannot be trusted with a security clearance. Therefore, it has been revoked,” the source said.
