Rove Thinks Mar-A-Lago Mole Is A Secret Service Agent

“The Secret Service – and this is just my own personal conjecture, no information other than simply knowing the Secret Service is there – they have no statutory responsibility over classified material.

“But they are sworn federal law officers. They are law enforcement, and they have a responsibility to report a crime, and particularly after a letter is sent from one of the president’s lawyers saying, ‘We don’t have any more classified material.’

“If somebody sent a letter and said ‘we don’t have classified material,’ and somebody in the Secret Service said ‘I have seen classified material still in the walls of Mar-a-Lago,’ he had a responsibility to report that through the chain of command or maybe directly to the counterintelligence division.

“They would have somebody who had said, in essence, ‘You have been misled’ – whether it was a deliberate lie or a lie based in ignorance, somebody told you there’s no more classified material here, there is classified material here.” – Karl Rove, last night on Fox News.
