Can you imagine if they trace any of the secret documents to the death of an overseas informant.

[fightforfreedom]

The secret document investigation could lead to many more investigations. I don't think we know how bad this really is. I don't think we know how many people will be dragged into this investigation.

We still don't know what they found when they searched trumps office and home. All the documents they are talking about now are the documents he turned over before the search warrant. This is just the beginning of what could be one of the largest national security breaches ever. We simply don't know yet.

1. They probably already have

The FBI raided his house for a reason, and it wasn't just that they thought classified materials were unsecure there. There was an imminent threat to national security in order for them to take these steps IMO.

[fightforfreedom]

5. Yes, also the possible charges listed in the warrant were extremely serious.

[Demsrule86]

12. You are absolutely correct Johnny...they were absolutely concerned possibly terrified as to

what Trump had already done, and what he planned to do with the remaining document in the future.

[Walleye]

2. Even if they had irrefutable proof of a connection between the death of an agent and the stolen pape

We would never hear about it because it would be so goddamn classified. It would just be another star on the wall in the CIA. I’m sure Trump was counting on that too

[gab13by13]

22. That's what Frank Figliusi said.

[iemanja]

3. I wouldn't put it past Trump

To show the documents to our adversaries, even knowing intelligence agents and assets could be killed.

[Justice matters.]

27. Spies were spotted roaming the halls of that witch-house...

With cellphones. One would think they could have a lucrative party back home...

[BlueTsunami2018]

4. The alphabet agencies have to consider everything in those documents compromised.

Every CI, every spy, every operation has to be considered blown. This fucking asshole has ruined decades of intelligence.

[leftyladyfrommo]

6. I'm sure they do figure he gave stuff away

This is so sickening.

[fightforfreedom]

8. You are correct, this is scary shit.

[exboyfil]

10. Yet I wonder how many of them still worship at the altar of MAGA

I am convinced that FBI agents worked with Rudy and the gang in the 2016 election to torpedo Clinton. It didn't help that moron Weiner gave them a path in.

[Joinfortmill]

23. Yup. Gotta clean house.

[orangecrush]

30. THIS

[jmowreader]

34. Lest you forget...

The only thing we have right now is a list of documents Trump didn’t send to his network yet. We may never know the full extent of everything he sent.

[multigraincracker]

7. How many of those Russian "accidental" deaths

could be tied to this info?

[fightforfreedom]

9. Hopefully, we will soon learn how many secret documents they found in the search.

Sometime before the election would be good.

[Irish_Dem]

11. We have to face the fact that we may never know all of it.

The full truth simply cannot be divulged due to national security issues.

Also the US government does not want the world to know how incompetent and corrupt it has become.

[exboyfil]

13. 50 years down the road

Kind of like when we found out about Nixon and Kissinger torpedoing the peace talks or the truth behind the Gulf of Tonkin incident. I am still awaiting the revelation that Reagan's campaign conspired with the Iranians to keep the hostages until after the election.

[Irish_Dem]

14. Yep exactly. When no one cares about it anymore.

People were talking about Reagan's conspiracy with the Iranians soon after it happened, and no one really cared about it.

GOP crimes always get a pass.

[skip fox]

15. I think he allowed, even facilitated, access of foreign agents to rooms in Mar-a-Largo.

That way he was not responsible for delivering the secrets, plus he could claim he was not criminally responsible ("Someone just got by us. Who knew?&quot for what was done with them.

[jmowreader]

28. The term of art is "dead drop"

“Comrade Trump, you will place this week’s documents in a hotel room at Mar-a-Lago and order your staff to not enter that room. You will write down the room number. You will not use the same room twice. At the same time as the room number, you will send a tweet. If you put the documents in room 125, you will tweet at 1:25 am. We will go down the next day and check into that room.”

[orangecrush]

31. Pretty much

Just like Robert Hanssen.

[kentuck]

16. Do you mean like Khashoggi?

Somebody ratted on him??

[sarcasmo]

17. He could shoot a man on 5th avenue, still applies.

[exboyfil]

18. I think we need a voice to demagogue the hell out of this

Link it to the entire Republican party. Everyone who voted no on impeachment in the House and Senate. Everyone who shared a platform with Trump especially after Jan. 6th.

I am thinking someone like Al Franken. Get this on Youtube, Netflix, Amazon Prime - whatever it takes.

[Volaris]

20. I have a feeling the J6 committee will cover this..if he was packing boxes

As a result of his little tantrum-coup didn't work, and he KNEW he would be leaving.

It's fine by me if Liz is the stalking wolf that tears his fatass to bloody shreds... cause if that's done during the House sessions, NONE OF IT will be redacted lol.

[Joinfortmill]

25. 👍

[Mr. Ected]

19. Pure conjecture, but I wonder if a FISA court has already authorized surveilling Trump

From the day he left office.

It's not like his ties to Russia prior to (and during) his presidency weren't well-documented by Robert Mueller. The spin and shitcanning nothwithstanding, there was a lot of smoke and Trump gave every indication during his days in office that he very well could be working as a foreign asset.

He was known to take classified materials on trips to adversarial countries. He met with dirty leaders in private. I'm sure the international intelligence community was well aware of the threat that Trump posed to all of us. Would it be a shock that he would be under constant surveillance since leaving office?

It might answer the question why the FBI moved so slowly. Perhaps they had ears to the ground and knew exactly what he was up to and what dangers he posed.

[Joinfortmill]

26. Some day there's gonna be a movie...

[orangecrush]

32. Damn

You win the thread!!!!

[Joinfortmill]

21. I see indictments in Trumpy's future.

[Jarqui]

24. I've been worried about that ..

I wouldn't be shocked in the least to find out he sold secrets for his own personal gain

[maxsolomon]

29. odds are they won't

i doubt any foreign agents knew to look for classified documents at Maralago. it's just so stupid.

[sir pball]

33. Robert Hanssen got agents killed. TFG should receive the same punishment as he did.

15 consecutive life sentences.

In the "H Unit" at ADX Florence.

Which means a 7x12' bare concrete cell, with a radio and MAYBE a TV (with pre-set programming of course) if you're an absolute model prisoner. For 23 hours a day. Your one hour out is in what's essentially an empty swimming pool with chain-link fence over the top. No human contact besides the guards – your lawyer is about the only other person who can communicate with you, and that's only via letter.

It's a special Hell reserved for terrorists and traitors, and the thought of TFG rotting there warms the cockles of my icy, dark heart.
