In what may be the most shocking story to emerge from the entire Mar-a-Lago document scandal, The New York Times is reporting that officials at intelligence agencies fear that among the classified information Donald Trump stole was details on U.S. assets embedded in foreign countries. The names, locations, and even the existence of such assets is among the most guarded secrets of the nation. But something mysterious has been happening over the last few years, with an unusual number of foreign sources being killed or arrested.

Last year, intelligence officials learned something alarming, and alerted their stations globally: Assets, or in this case, foreign nationals recruited globally to collect intel for the United States, were being pulled off the chess board by being captured or killed at unusual rates.

A breach of the classified communications system, or “covcom,” used by the C.I.A. helped to expose the agency’s networks in China and in Iran, according to former officials. In both cases informants were executed. Others had to be extracted and resettled by the agency.
Top American counterintelligence officials warned every C.I.A. station and base around the world last week about troubling numbers of informants recruited from other countries to spy for the United States being captured or killed, people familiar with the matter said.
The message, in an unusual top secret cable, said that the C.I.A.’s counterintelligence mission center had looked at dozens of cases in the last several years involving foreign informants who had been killed, arrested or most likely compromised. Although brief, the cable laid out the specific number of agents executed by rival intelligence agencies — a closely held detail that counterintelligence officials typically do not share in such cables.
That article is from October 7th, 2021 and outlines a disturbing trend that began only after one Donald Trump became President. In fact, it had been known for some time that there was a problem. It also was not unknown across the pond. There, a reporter is a bit more direct in their angle, questioning is a “super-mole” was betraying our spies.

WASHINGTON — The Justice Department’s search of former President Donald J. Trump’s Florida home was spurred by the discovery that he had retained a trove of highly classified material that included documents related to the use of “clandestine human sources” in intelligence gathering, according to a redacted version of the affidavit used to obtain the search warrant. In those boxes, they found a total of 184 documents with classification markings, including 25 labeled “top secret.” Others were marked in a way suggesting they were related to foreign intercepts collected under the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act.
What stands out there obviously is “clandestine human sources.” There is a reason you keep reading about that angle. I am not going to dance around this, and here is where the NYT detonates on Trump:

C.I.A. espionage operations inside numerous hostile countries have been compromised in recent years when the governments of those countries have arrested, jailed and even killed the agency’s sources.
Last year, a top-secret memo sent to every C.I.A. station around the world warned about troubling numbers of informants being captured or killed, a stark reminder of how important human source networks are to the basic functions of the spy agency.

 
This would be beyond what anyone could have imagined.

I pray this is not Trump commiting treason.
He wouldn't know or care if he had, frankly; he's that dumb he assumes he's above the law. No defense lawyer worthy of his diploma wants anything to do with him now.
 
This is one of those things that is purely speculative. We should hold back on the possible conspiracies until we know more.

Funny. I have posted the same as have others. But if this was a nutter media story that was emerging about dems, it would already be fact to every nutter.

Spot on. Those are pretty serious charges, and I would like to see how that was reached before making any conclusions. For now, it seems we have someone who skirted a process and caused a big mess because of it due to the nature of the content he took; until proven otherwise of course.

How else can our intelligence agencies deal with this? You do know that they must assume that all this secret information is now in enemy hands. Unless you have some way of proving they do not have it. Do you?

We don't know what the information is. The OP is based on speculation of knowing what some information is when we don't.

"We don't know" if TS/SCI info in the hands of our enemies is a problem? I pretty sure that is not a question they are asking themselves at the NSA. We will NEVER know what that info is. I'm pretty sure that is a given don't you think? Don't you agree that the only way this can be dealt with is to assume all the info has been leaked and act accordingly?
 
When this is proved to be just more of the same mindless lies and bullshit that the rat party (through their media outlets) have spoon fved to the retarded ****s that support the party, it will all just disappear from the media outlets and those same retards will be regurgitating this on social media sites for the next 4 years, just like those same retards have done with the whole Russia/collusion bullshit.

So the mishandling of classified information is no longer a problem for you? You don't mind that Trump has likely leaked all those documents to our enemies? What can he do that would upset you? Nothing?
 
NYT having access to top secret CIA cables is TIGHT!
 
Trump may have sold out our spies, engaged in human trafficking, illicit arms sales, drug running, rape, murder, incest, and cannibalism. He's also suspected of clubbing baby seals, puppies, and kittens to death. We should probably just shoot him now to make sure the possibility of him doing any of the above is avoided. Can't be too careful.

None of that would cause his cult supporters to even bat an eye. Is that what you mean?

I think that defending a man who has literally never done a benevolent thing in his life has driven you a little batty.
 
I just posted this in another thread:

The OP is about some speculations on intelligence about specific human assets. We do not know if any such information was indeed in Trump's possession.
