A foreign spy's view on Mar-a-Lago search affidavit: 'You're taking the fun out of spying'
"I got into the espionage business for thrills and danger. Now do you know what I have to do to get some of America’s most classified information? I have to go to a freakin’ golf course in Florida."
Rex HuppkeThe following note was emailed to me Friday by one of my many non-existent, fake, sources in the global spying community. I share it in the interest of national security:
Hello, American readers, my name is [REDACTED] and I’m a veteran spy for an adversarial foreign nation.
Now that a judge has released the redacted affidavit used by your FBI to obtain a warrant to search former President Donald Trump’s home at the Mar-a-Lago country club in Florida, there’s something I need to get off my chest: Your former president has totally taken the fun out of spying.
I got into the espionage business for thrills and danger. Sneaking around, carrying hidden recording devices, covertly taking pictures of government officials cheating on their spouses so I could then bribe them for top-secret information. Occasionally engaging in some light torture. You know, the fun stuff.
