"Pence won't get a briefing from Gina Haspel unless another person is in the room with them"

jeremy scahill✔ @jeremyscahill

Mike Pence won't be able to get a briefing from Gina Haspel unless another person is in the room with them.

Secretary: Mr. Vice President, there has been a terror attack. Ms. Haspel is ready to brief you.

Pence: Thank you. Please send in my chaperone with her.

Because if it's another woman, then he really won't be able to control himself.

If she is unable to get a top security clearance, does he have to fire her?
