Nuclear programs are the most sensitive of all weapons systems. Whether the information concerns America’s friends or foes, Trump’s disregard for the security of nuclear secrets represents the most reckless disregard for U.S. and global security.
I don’t know if anyone else has seen the documents the FBI seized from Mar-a-Lago, but keeping the nuclear secrets at his Florida resort makes it easier for others to access the information. He risked undermining U.S. security because he could About the most powerful weapons system the world has ever known.
It is also unclear which country’s nuclear program the document refers to. If the information concerns U.S. allies, it could also jeopardize their security. Also, if you are referring to enemies of the United States, you will see the US card, giving useful information to enemies of the United States.
As court filings made clear, Trump resisted demands for months, then demanded that documents be forwarded that should have been sent to the National Archives, as required by law.most dramatic moment
I came on August 8th., when an FBI agent emerged from Mar-a-Lago with a box of files. In documents allegedly discovered by the FBI,

Additionally, according to The Washington Post, the FBI has recovered documents describing “top secret U.S. operations,” so the label “top secret” describes the degree of care typically used to protect them. I haven’t started.

Sounds like the former intelligence and defense official is in serious trouble. Mike Esper, Trump’s former secretary of defense, said his main concern is that the wrong people will discover how the United States gets information. I don’t want my enemies to know how I know,” he told CNN this week. Information in these documents could lead US enemies to US sources.

9 countries are known Possession of nuclear weapons. Some countries such as France, UK, Israel and India are US allies. Other countries such as China, Pakistan, Russia, and North Korea have relationships that range from hostile to cold. Other countries like Iran have nuclear programs but no known nuclear weapons.

At this point, we don’t know what happened to the documents since Trump took them out of the White House over 18 months ago. In fact, we don’t know why Trump kept them and why he resisted giving them back.
Like Republican Senator Marco Rubio of Florida, this is clearly not a “storage” issue.

Cannon ordered the FBI to stop using the documents in its investigation and wait for a special master to review them. I don’t know who they’ll pick, but they certainly won’t be the ones tasked with figuring out where the documents are and who’s seen them in the past year and a half. That’s the FBI’s job.

Who saw the documents? Why was Trump keeping them? These are the two biggest questions looming over the case from a purely non-political perspective. What happens to Trump is also important, but what damage he has done to US and global security is a matter of urgency, and the potential consequences are almost incalculable.
