Report: Mar-a-Lago documents contained secrets about Iran and China
Arutz Sheva ^ | 21/10/22

Posted on 10/22/2022 10:07:54 AM PDT by Eleutheria5

Some of the classified documents recovered by the FBI from former US President Donald Trump’s Mar-a-Lago home and private club included highly sensitive intelligence regarding Iran and China, people familiar with the matter told The Washington Post on Friday.

If shared with others, the people said, such information could expose intelligence-gathering methods that the United States wants to keep hidden from the world.

At least one of the documents seized by the FBI describes Iran’s missile program, according to these people, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to describe an ongoing investigation. Other documents described highly sensitive intelligence work aimed at China, they said.

The secret documents about Iran and China are considered among the most sensitive the FBI has recovered to date in its investigation of Trump and his aides for possible mishandling of classified information, obstruction and destruction of government records, the sources told The Washington Post.

A Trump spokesman did not immediately respond to requests for comment. The FBI referred questions about the documents to the Justice Department, which declined to comment.

Only if he switched back to Democrat and angrily denounced the GOP and January 6, and “tax cuts for the rich” and embraced “climate change,” or whatever they’re calling it now.

Exactly, that was the point of the whole operation.

“If shared with others, the people said, such information could expose intelligence-gathering methods that the United States wants to keep hidden from the world.”

It’s a good thing The Washington Post doesn’t count as “others”.

Certainly too sensitive for Trump’s legal team or an independent Special Master to see, but of course the Washington Post is cleared to print all leaks at every classification level so that makes sense.

The identification of mishandled classified information is itself a security violation.

Moreover, nothing in the Presidential records act prohibits the President from maintaining classified material as his records.

So sensitive that Arutz Sheva reports on it— yeah— for real— real Mossad kind of shite to report.

This is all SET UP and full of bullcrap— more flag running up “narrative”.

They will fail with this continuous Amazon.WaPo made up crapola.

Because— EVERY classified document currently under LOCK—every one’s location is KNOWN. Known to the security intel operations. The rest of this is all fabrication. We know this from the released Russia Russia hoaxing agencies and national media participation in a poorly sourced (not sourced at all) LIE of the first order, starting with James Comey. F’n LIARS all of them— due a federal pen sentence- Comey, Clapper, Brennan, DOJ operatives of the same, and especially McCabe and Rosenstein (he’s at the same Atlanta law firm as Gina Haspel— who is another one who should do time for domestic election interference and criminal actions).

If the documents are so “classified” why does the NYT and WaPo keep reporting on them?

The judge should just dismiss the entire case based on the DOJ’s leaking of the documents. They can’t have it both ways. One, the documents are so super-secret the former President can’t have them in his possession. Or two, the documents aren’t really that secret and we can tell the media all about them in order to vilify Trump. Which is it?

I will try to summarize what little I know about Iran’s nuclear aspirations. Didn’t Obama sign a deal with Iran about their nuclear ambitions in 2015? Wasn’t the IAEA suppose to monitor Iran under this deal? Maybe the FBI is embarassed that Iran broke Obama’s agreement before Trump ended it.

Bibi publicly revealed that fact, and Trump used that revelation to pull out of the deal once and for all. No secrets to keep on that.

Someone needs to get into Obama’s warehouse and publish all the documents stored there NOT under the safeguarding of the Secret Service.

If true, Trump had possession for about a year and a half and no leaks about content. The government takes them back and the contents are leaked all over the internet within weeks. Which location was more secure?

Let us not kid one another. The reason the FIB would not list each item taken on their 5:00 AM raid, was so that now, at this late date they could add “classified” documents of THEIR own choosing could be salted into the mix, and VOILA! Trump is GUILTY. It’s lucky for them tha I’m not God, because if I were there might be numerous little smoking piles of cinders scattered around the FIB and DOJ where corrupt agents and their bosses had been standing moments before.
