It appears Trump not only had nuclear secrets in his basement, but also SIGINT documents - the single highest classification in the government. And yes, these generally contain the names of our most vulnerable CIA assets.

Thank the Democrats for delivering the best holiday experience in 17 years.
New data shows sales up 9.2% from the 2019 per-pandemic holiday season and the highest holiday spending since 2004. The Biden economy benefiting both suppliers and consumers. No empty shelves to be found.

It's been a steady stream of pardons for MAGA lawbreakers from the 'law and order' gang.
Corrupt sheriffs, war criminals, crooked governors. The list goes on. Roger Stone just the latest trash.
Next up: the right wing Boogaloo jokers caught torching the Las Vegas courthouse..
Amazingly, Trump tweeted "LAW & ORDER!" literally minutes after corruptly dangling a pardon for Roger Stone. This makes an utter mockery of rule of law. In so doing, Trump neatly confirmed that James Mattis' blistering criticism is 100% right. New piece:
