Missing Classified Intelligence Binder Sparks National Security Concerns

Former FBI Official Warns of Potential Danger if Lost Document Falls into Wrong Hands

  • An intelligence binder containing classified U.S. and NATO-ally raw intelligence on Russia and Russian agents, last seen at the White House during former President Donald Trump's final days in office, has gone missing.
  • The binder, known as the 'Crossfire Hurricane' document, is related to Russian interference in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.
  • Former FBI official Frank Figliuzzi warned that the lost document could 'get somebody killed' if it falls into the hands of the Kremlin, as it could expose U.S. intelligence sources and methods against Russia.
  • Trump's former chief of staff, Mark Meadows, has been implicated in the document's disappearance by both White House aide Cassidy Hutchinson and Trump himself, but Meadows' lawyer denies these claims.
  • Concerns are raised about what Trump might do with classified information if he gains access to secret material again, given his track record on safeguarding America’s secrets.
