An ex-FBI agent has issued a shocking warning regarding the US’ state secrets following Donald Trump‘s election win and imminent White House return.

Former Special Agent Asha Rangappa is urging the US Intelligence Community (IC) to safeguard their secrets before Trump returns to office.

She wrote on X: “I hope the IC uses the next couple of months to protect its sources because our national security secrets are about to be sold to the highest bidder.”

Rangappa has consistently raised concerns about the former president, now president-elect, and claims that he poses a threat to national security, Mail Online reports.

Trump was previously accused of revealing highly classified defence information, however there’s no evidence to suggest he sold state secrets during his previous term.

The 78-year-old was accused of giving information to individuals at his private clubs in Florida and New Jersey which led to special counsel Jack Smith’s federal charges against him in Florida.

These charges were ultimately dismissed by Judge Aileen Cannon, a judge appointed by Trump himself, based on an innovative legal theory from Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas that Smith wasn’t properly appointed to the special counsel role.

Smith had been planning to appeal this decision, but recent reports suggest he is preparing to step down from his post and close that case.

There is also the election conspiracy case that would be axed in line with longstanding Justice Department policy against criminally charging a sitting president.

Trump won Tuesday’s election with 50.9% of the popular vote and 295 Electoral College votes – well above the 270 threshold required for victory.

The Republican leader hailed his win as a “magnificent victory for the American people” and pledged to “help our country heal” during a victory speech in Florida.

In his address, Trump vowed to mend the nation and its frontiers, branding his political resurgence “the greatest political movement of all time.”

He declared: “There’s never been anything like this in this country. We’re going to help our country heal. We’ve got a country that needs help… badly… We’re going to fix our borders… We’ve made history.”
