The FBI raid on Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago residence on Monday was likely sparked by new information from an 'informant' and a breakdown in cooperation between the agency and former president, a former agent told DailyMail.com.
Retired FBI Special Agent in Charge Michael Tabman, who served the agency for 24 years, said a raid of this level of sensitivity would need to be approved by Attorney General Merrick Garland.
'I think somebody gave them information indicating that these documents are there,' Tabman said, adding two hypothetical 'insider' revelations: 'You have not been told the truth about their existence. You're not getting them unless you come get them.'
'I think there was inside information – call it an informant if you want,' he told DailyMail.com. 'I believe either someone told them something or some other information was stumbled upon, which was kind of conclusive in their minds that they had to go now to get that or they're not getting it.'

Reaching for straws.
Could the RAT have planted evidence?
Yeah, “evidence” like the Vindman “transcript” that was a complete fabrication.
Maybe the Trump team lied to the RAT and set him/her up...................
Yup...like the informant who stated that DJT tried to grab the wheel of The Beast.
Another “informant” aka a false claim so they can get a warrant and go fishing.
We don’t need the news to speculate for us, we need them to either go find out or just do some other line of work.
The media makes up a lie and the FBI uses the media lie to get a warrant.
If there was real evidence, we would have seen it by now. Do these people even realize what they did? After the past 5 years of FBI behavior, not buying one iota of this b.s.
I think a Rat slipped in a classified document or two in a box of documents Trump was going to take home. This was a setup that they could pull off strategically before the midterms or General to do the maximum damage. If the document was found there would be no way for Trump to prove his innocence. Its the perfect setup.
Had to be.
Close.
The FBI makes up a lie and gives it to the media, who publishes it, then FBI uses the media lie to get a warrant......................
This is the Russian collusion hoax redux. The truth is whatever the Democrats and MSM say it is.
In the interim, remember a man is a woman if THEY say so.
The same FBI was at Mar A Lago in June with Trump and his attorneys present..they saw the same boxes and saw ZERO issues with them, ZERO
Or a big fat lie to use an excuse to go in.
I hope the “informant” lied with the intent of drawing the FIB into a political trap.
Like they did with Hillary?
It was probably McConnel and McCarthy providing false info. I’m sure they at least knew it was going to happen.
