Kurt Olsen, a Trump campaign attorney, is being furnished with "highly classified material" including "sensitive compartmented intelligence programs" despite having no intelligence background, according to Politico's John Sakellariadis.
Olsen, categorized as a "special government employee," has a direct line to Trump and exploits it to access classified material, with sources saying "every time he hits a roadblock, he just calls POTUS" to get what he wants.
Politico's sources express concern over Olsen's ability to properly understand the classified material, saying he frequently makes incorrect conclusions and takes information out of context, with one source noting "[Olsen] will find some super classified report, say it’s evidence of fraud, but really it’s just completely out of context."
