The raid on Mar-a-Lago was based largely on information from an FBI confidential human source, one who was able to identify what classified documents former President Trump was still hiding and even the location of those documents, two senior government officials told Newsweek.

The senior Justice Department source says that Garland was regularly briefed on the Records Act investigation, and that he knew about the grand jury and what material federal prosecutors were seeking. He insists, though, that Garland had no prior knowledge of the date and time of the specific raid, nor was he asked to approve it. "I know it's hard for people to believe," says the official, "but this was a matter for the U.S. Attorney and the FBI."
FBI director Christopher Wray ultimately gave his go-ahead to conduct the raid, the senior Justice official says. "It really is a case of the Bureau misreading the impact."

And Wray was conveniently out of town when things went down.
Now that precedent has been set, I'm not saying "revenge", but its past time to go after these bastards. Gitmo has space.
Supposedly the “Informant” told them there was stuff in the safe which was totally EMPTY..so if that was the case, sounds like someone made the feds look like total fools
So they’re still running undercover agents on Trump. No one else, just Trump.
such bullshi.!
If that’s the case, why did it take them 9 hours to find what they already knew they were looking for, and where it was? The FBI perverts obviously couldn’t resist sifting through the First Lady’s undies and clothing.
The Raid is not about documents. It is an open notorious mafiosi-style assassination threat to Trump, and planning of same by the Anti-American criminal Marxist thieves running the Brandon Junta.
He should never return to Mar-a-lago. Not safe.
I suspect something was planted if this article is correct about an Informer.
They really want those Epstein records with client names and dates.
Excellent method for smoking out a Rat.
“FBI confidential human source”
Anonymous source crap again.
Apparently, not where every document was hidden given the safe broken into had nothing in it......
That ‘informer’ top notch! /s
Geraldo Rivera was the confidential informant on the contents of Trumps safe.
That would be my guess. Who is the informer? Like the Laa Vegas shooting, we’ll never be told.
Trump threatens the swamp. So of course they have undercover agents on him now. Probably a couple of workers at Mar-A-Lago.
According to the WaPo the other day, the FBI inspected the documents in June after Trump agreed to let them into the room where they were kept. And if they knew exactly where the documents were, why did they ransack the whole house for nine hours?
Or the info was planted to find the leaker?
When the FBI is using informants, they don’t admit it. (Whitmer “kidnapping” case.)
When the FBI says, “an informant told us where the evidence is hidden,”
this means there is no actual informant, and an FBI agent is planting false evidence.
I hope they found at least a note saying “Q was here”.
