Trump Showed Docs to People at Mar-a-Lago’s Dining Room Patio Claims Former White House Press Secretary

Stephanie Grisham revealed that she witnessed her former boss, former President Donald Trump, show classified documents to people at his Florida residence Mar-a-Lago.
Grisham served as both Communications Director and Press Secretary under the Trump administration and appeared Saturday on MSNBC’s Alex Witt Reports, and was asked to comment on Trump’s second indictment surrounding his alleged mishandling of classified documents.
Witt: Look, you know, Donald Trump, is it plausible Trump was showing classified documents to people in private meetings?
Grisham: The short answer is yes. I watched him show documents to people at Mar a Lago on the dining room patio. So he has no respect for classified information. Never did. You know, listening to that exchange every time, it just makes me so angry. He he talks specifically that he should have declassified it, but he didn’t. So there, I think, is proof. I believe also there’s a portion of that audio where he says, you know, this is off the record. And I know Donald Trump knows the rules of reporters and he knows if it needs to be off the record that they can’t talk about it. So I think he was covering himself in that regard. And, you know, I was thinking about this earlier. I just want to say to your viewers, I don’t think people understand how hard it is to get your your classified permission. I remember when I was going through it to get get all of mine. I got held up because of a $13 kindercare bill that I did not know about, and so I couldn’t get it. They go through everything about it. It’s very difficult to get a security clearance. And I think people, you know, they miss that in the weeds, obviously. But to be showing it to people who haven’t gone through the extreme vetting that you go through to get a clearance, it’s you know, it’s a disservice to the country, but it also puts people in danger potentially.
Witt: How high was your security clearance? And I’ve got to think, given that you get held up for a $13, whatever it was, I mean, that’s got to be almost offensive. The Donald Trump goes around and shows it very liberally to people.

a list of our CIA and other intelligence agents as President and afterwards around the world we started "loosing people."
WASHINGTON — 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.
The cable highlighted the struggle the spy agency is having as it works to recruit spies around the world in difficult operating environments. In recent years, adversarial intelligence services in countries such as Russia, China, Iran and Pakistan have been hunting down the C.I.A.’s sources and in some cases turning them into double agents.
Acknowledging that recruiting spies is a high-risk business, the cable raised issues that have plagued the agency in recent years, including poor tradecraft; being too trusting of sources; underestimating foreign intelligence agencies, and moving too quickly to recruit informants while not paying enough attention to potential counterintelligence risks — a problem the cable called placing “mission over security.”

Why he is still walking free is beyond me but if the GOP wants to make him the face of their party
then I say, go for it you idiots and make a traitor your guy.
Here he is selling out Israel and one its agents in the Oval Office.
This. So much this. And running for president. 
Wasn't that photo taken shortly after the election & released by Russian media cuz US media wasn't allowed? And weren't there suggestions that Trump revealed Israeli secrets during this meeting? Look at him, all puffed up on himself, thinking that he's running with the big dogs while they laugh between themselves knowing he's a puppet. We'll never know all the damage he did.
Those who ignore the lessons of History 
are doomed... to repeat it.
Worst than 911 next? 
There's a huge drought of knowledge and journalistic technique. Perhaps down side of 24 hr news? Cost to staff? Maybe it should be more of just reading the news and save the $$$ salary for good people?
Saw an interview yesterday where GOPer got away with saying " runaway inflation". There was not even a glimmer in the eye of the interviewer to talk about inflation projected to decrease to pre pandemic rates next year.
Bottom line, think it's more about the skill level than some big master media plan 
If this traitor criminal gets off with a slap on the wrist for stealing and exhibiting this country's secret documents. Prison for life is the only way to go.
Makes me want to scream.
FRONT PAGE news - everywhere.
