Why worry about former President Donald Trump‘s potential mishandling and possible exposing of “Human Intelligence Control System” information at Mar-a-Lago?

Well, because HCS information is considered extremely sensitive and highly restricted within the U.S. government. That’s namely because it involves reporting from our agents in the field — people from countries such as Russia, Iran, China, and North Korea — whom the CIA has recruited to spy in service of the United States. These are the crown jewels of the CIA, our equivalent of the military’s nuclear codes. We don’t know that any HCS material was exposed, but we should absolutely want to find out.
