Former members of the intelligence community have expressed their concern about reports that Donald Trump allegedly shared classified information about U.S. submarines with nuclear capability with an Australian businessman at his Mar-a-Lago club in Florida.
According to reports by ABC News and The New York Times, citing sources familiar with the conversation, the former president told billionaire Anthony Pratt about the American fleet, including how many nuclear warheads they tended to carry and how close they were thought to be able to get to a Russian submarine without being detected, in April 2021.
ABC claimed that the alleged disclosure of classified information was reported to special counsel Jack Smith while investigating Trump's retaining of classified documents at Mar-a-Lago, and that FBI agents interviewed Pratt, who confirmed the conversation. The alleged disclosure was not included in the eventual indictment against Trump.
