Secret Service: No system for vetting Trump visitors at Mar-a-Lago
Source: Politico
There are no visitor logs or other system of tracking those who visited President Donald Trump at his winter retreat known as Mar-a-Lago, a Secret Service official confirmed Wednesday.
Responding to a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit, Special Agent Kim Campbell said that her agency had a smattering of records regarding some foreign dignitaries and law enforcement officers who met Trump earlier this year during his stays at the Palm Beach resort he owns.
However, Campbell acknowledged the lack of a comprehensive or even a routine process for tracking such visitors, such as the one used for the White House.
"The...search and review of records confirmed that there is no system for keeping track of Presidential visitors at Mar-a-Lago, as there is at the White House Complex," wrote Campbell, head of the Secret Service's Liaison Divison. "Specifically, it was determined that there is no grouping, listing or set of records that would reflect Presidential visitors to Mar-a-Lago."

How convenient for him to have secret meetings with whoever he wants to see. Houston, we have a problem. Our so-called President, elected with the help of a foreign entity, has the ability to hold secret meetings with anyone he chooses and there is no record. What about the communications systems in these places? Are they secure? Monitored? Recorded?
Way more questions than answers. Just like they planned it.
