Former FBI Agent Suggests Trump Was Raided Due To National Security Issue
According to former FBI agent Asha Rangappa on CNN:
Trump is sort of a counterintelligence nightmare. In addition to blabbing secrets, Mar-a-Lago has a lot of traffic, including traffic from foreigners and including possible trespassers from foreign intelligence services someone was arrested there several years ago.
And:These arent just the Kim Jong-un love letters. These are possibly secrets that could really harm national security and so I think they want to make sure before they take this extreme step.

] Out-of-the-ordinary incident revealed by agent during Yujing Zhangs detention hearing
Yujing Zhang
A US Secret Service agent put a USB drive taken from a Chinese woman who tried to gain access to Donald Trumps private Florida club into his government computer, triggering an immediate download of malicious software.
The very out-of-the-ordinary incident was revealed by another Secret Service agent, Samuel Ivanovich, who testified on Monday at a detention hearing against Yujing Zhang, a 32-year-old Chinese national arrested late last month for trying to enter Mar-a-Lago.
According to an affidavit filed by an agent and seen by the Miami Herald, Ms Zhang gave the Secret Service conflicting accounts of why she went to the US presidents club on 30 March.
One reason she allegedly gave was that she had been invited to a social event promoted online by Li Yang, a Florida massage parlour owner who ran a separate business touting her clients access to the Trump administration at Mar-a-Lago.
