Material on foreign nation’s nuclear capabilities seized at Trump’s Mar-a-Lago (barf)
wapo ^ | 9/6/2022 | Devlin Barrett and Carol D. Leonnig

Some seized documents were so closely held, only the president, a Cabinet-level or near-Cabinet level official could authorize others to know

A document describing a foreign government’s military defenses, including its nuclear capabilities, was found by FBI agents who searched former president Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago residence and private club last month, according to people familiar with the matter, underscoring concerns among U.S. intelligence officials about classified material stashed in the Florida property.

Some of the seized documents detail top-secret U.S. operations so closely guarded that many senior national security officials are kept in the dark about them. Only the president, some members of his Cabinet or a near-Cabinet-level official could authorize other government officials to know details of these special-access programs, according to people familiar with the search, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe sensitive details of an ongoing investigation.

Documents about such highly classified operations require special clearances on a need-to-know basis, not just top-secret clearance. Some special-access programs can have as few as a couple dozen government personnel authorized to know of an operation’s existence. Records that deal with such programs are kept under lock and key, almost always in a secure compartmented information facility, with a designated control officer to keep careful tabs on their location.

If (IF!) this is true it shows a blatant disregard for national security.

If so, how did they get packed up and shipped to Mar a lago?

If this is so hush-hush, why then are federal agents describing sensitive details of an ongoing investigation - I mean even if "they" remain anonymous, wouldn't it be better not to say anything.

Unless, by leaking selected innuendos they are trying to accomplish something else.

Biden is not President here, and he’s not in a SCIF.


This is a Violation of the Espionage Act.

This crap will be never ending and is of no significance except to possibly the IDIOCRACY.

But WaPo knows all about it.

Yep. If this is truly incriminating evidence, it was either planted before transportation to Trump’s residence or during the 9+ hour ‘search’.
