Kaminari should be the traitor because there's already two spiky haired shonen boys in the class and they're both cooler than him
If Kaminari turns out to be an evil poo poo, that's gonna bump him up on my favs list.

The entire bottom left is fanfiction so that can be ignored, the rest is mostly people pointing out circumstances or oddities in his behavior, or far too convenient coincidences

I'm skeptical that the traitor is even a student because the attackers at USJ knew about the movements of the teachers, something a student wouldn't be privy about. Also the attackers didn't even know Eraserhead would be there, and if the mole was a student of his of course they'd get that information

Honestly I think Eraserhead is a good mole candidate, with him not giving out information about himself or his own movements to protect his identity in case someone else gets compromised

The two strongest clues are both not actually in the manga itself: the sketch of his first design (a villainous character) and the Jekyll/Hyde face.

While I think there's a good chance of Kaminari being the traitor, the former of these two sketches would be evidence of the opposite, if anything. It's really rare for traitor characters to look mean and evil to begin with. No one is going to be surprised if the character who looks super evil ends up actually being evil.

"Go on until you're stopped."
Kaminari is the unwitting traitor because somebody realized they could just ask him questions when he's stuck in moron mode, and he'd answer truthfully and then forget about it.

The Villain Alliance helped cause the initial break-in by the media in order provide an opportunity for the traitor to steal a teacher's schedule, presumably from the teacher's lounge.

And if that's the case, Kaminari actually has an alibi since he showed up in the crowd of people getting squashed in that chapter.

Not the strongest, but the cutest.
I would be pretty surprised if both Hagakure and Kaminari are both traitors, just not working together.
Really, the one thing I don't want is that the traitor could be the police guy, because that's the most predictable and consequently, boring and trite decision.

Police guy would be an odd choice because the villains apparently had no idea exactly how diminished All Might was, but police dude was definitely aware of All Might's true condition.

Uh there was nothing to suggest that was the work of a traitor. I think Shigaraki just ran in while everyone was distracted and grabbed the schedule.

Honestly I think the truth might just be that Spinner or Toga have a quirk that can be used to spy.

Yeah, for USJ at least it's pretty clear that Shigaraki (or maybe Black Mist) got a four-finger discount on the Yueii class schedule after he broke down the door and let the paparazzi in.

I always presumed the break in was in order for Black Mist to sneak in. He can't teleport anywhere he hasn't been before.

He can, he just needs to know the coordinates first. Otherwise, they wouldn't have been able to attack the forest camp.

Without the hands on his face and stuff? Yes. He was walking around in public at the mall and all without being noticed; even Deku didn't realize who he was until he stopped hiding his voice. And he went and destroyed the gate to let the reporters in without them catching that he was responsible. Clearly he can be sneaky when he wants to.

Managing to slip into a crowd at a busy mall isn't high-level spy stuff.

On the other hand, when the media broke into UA, all of the alarms sounded and the staff were combing the grounds looking for suspicious characters. Shiggy would definitely have been suspicious, since he wasn't wearing a school uniform. Also, his face looks like a rabid raccoon used it for boxing lessons. Sneaking through like that would have been really difficult.
