A handful of media outlets reported on Friday the contents of the search warrant executed at former President Donald Trump’s Florida estate, but Breitbart also published information about the FBI agents involved that the Department of Justice had sought to protect.
On Monday, FBI agents raided Mar-a-Lago in Palm Beach, reportedly to search for government documents Trump improperly took with him upon leaving office. Some of the documents are reportedly classified.
Fox News, the Wall Street Journal , Politico, and Breitbart all reported on the contents of the warrant, which indicate the DOJ is investigating the former president for a possible violation of the Espionage Act, as well as obstruction of justice.
Breitbart, the far-right publication once helmed by former Trump White House adviser Steve Bannon , published the names of FBI employees involved in Monday’s search. Breitbart reported the FBI gave two receipts listing the seized items to Trump’s attorney.
“The longer receipt was signed by FBI Special Agent [REDACTED] and the shorter receipt was signed by the name: [REDACTED] and includes [REDACTED],” Breitbart’s article stated , while not redacting the names as Mediaite has done here. “It is unclear who that person is, and the handwriting is not the clearest.”
On Thursday, an Ohio man attacked the FBI field office in Cincinnati armed with an AR-15-style rifle and a nail gun. Police killed the gunman after exchanging fire with him.

The nut cases on social media are already saying the FBI agents named should be thrown out of midair helicopters.
Sadly, that is much of surprise.
assuming you forgot to tie a Not, irregardless, if anything should happen to these Agents, i would hope the GOP, Breitbart, Trump, and any and all hyping this 'procedure', would be held accountable.
They don't care what happens to people. The 'law and order' party has become the lawless party.
Right you are.... this is just as bad as revealing the home addresses of Supreme Court justices and threatening them with harm
Never agreed with that either.
Yes it is, but the left will not see it that way. They will say that publishing their address was part of the "peaceful protest". You know, the one that showed up to Kavanaugh's home with the intent on killing him.
Hell, they thought it was OK doxxing parents that dared speak out against school boards that want to teach CRT.
