Before the Epstein client defending Florida magistrate was approved, there may have been a rat or informant at Mar-A-Lago who tipped off the FBI to get the ball rolling. As we saw when Trump was president, he listened to too many establishment hacks on who he picked to populate his cabinet. From Jeff Sessions to Chris Wray to pig Bill Barr to General Milley, Trump was far too trusting of these hacks. This may have been a problem at Mar-a-Lago too.
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.’
Even at Mar-A-Lago, Trump was surrounded by backstabbers. Remember Cassidy Hutchinson?
