This might help to explain the counterintelligence head that signed off on the warrant also.

This is pretty broad. It would be a mistake to start making factual claims about Trump "trying to sell nuclear secrets" (for now, anyway). That said, the most favorable implication of this seems to be that the FBI thought Trump might have nuclear documents, presumably because that would be consistent with the kinds of sensitive documents that they already managed to recover--which would also be very bad.

And that's a very important thing to remember right now. We know the feds went looking for classified documentation on nuclear weapons. We don't know if it was on our arsenal or other countries, or if they even found them. And we will not know if those documents were found unless Trump gets arrested for crimes resulting from possession of those documents.

It's still very very very bad. But it's not Trump committed treason. Yet.

I cannot get into specifics because I work with national security for a living but let's just say the chatter that I've heard today this is just the tip of the iceberg.

He's fucked.

That would explain the "don't go out on a limb on this one" instruction passed around to senior GOP members.

You would have known all this and many more nuclear facts if you had read Donald Trump's The New York Times Bestseller, The Art of the Yield.

Don't discount the possibility he merely took these to boast to visitors about it, as much as it wouldn't surprise me to see him to sell this info for gain.

I suppose we need to upgrade the 'light treason' meme for 'capital "T" Treason'

Yeah I'm waiting for more details on this. Great (see: terrible) headline and hilarious fox news clip though.

Simply having nuclear stuff there = He's fucked

Showing that stuff to others = He's super fucked

Potentially trying to sell that to others = He's probably lucky he's not dead

As much as this potential gives me hope for Trump facing punishment, I am deeply saddened from a national security standpoint and the potential harm that could have been done.
