Top officials in the White House were aware in early 2019 of classified intelligence indicating Russia was secretly offering bounties to the Taliban for the deaths of Americans, a full year earlier than has been previously reported, according to U.S. officials with direct knowledge of the intelligence.Trump, through his Duty Liar, has denied any knowledge of this.
The assessment was included in at least one of President Donald Trump’s written daily intelligence briefings at the time, according to the officials. Then-national security adviser John Bolton also told colleagues at the time that he briefed Trump on the intelligence assessment in March 2019.
One might wonder when the Republicans are going to start asking why Trump is so soft on Putin; soft enough that the question should be asked just what Putin has on Trump.
If Lindsey Graham starts asking hard questions, then you'll know Trump's done.
Where's all these so called patriots who are full of braggadocio, clinging to the flag, mom, and apple pie? The ones who make every excuse for Trump? Seems like there's a lot of crickets out today.
ReplyDeleteBy now, anyone who STILL expects this president to put America first is fucking idiot.
And a traitor.

So, Iran has requested an Interpol Red Notice for Donnie and Co. They won’t get it, but like GWB, don’t expect Donnie to travel overseas much after his term ends, despite his love of golf...unless, of course, he heads overseas round about Jan 20, 2021.
ReplyDeletePutin probably just sees it as a little retribution for Reagan's support of the Mujahideen, but Fergus is supposed to know about this stuff and do something about it.
ReplyDeleteNo, it's not easy or simple, apart from the pardoning of the turkeys, very little about the presidency is.

Lindsey Graham will suddenly realize that Donnie endangered the country sometime around 1 PM, 1/20/2021. It will happen regardless of if Donnie wins again, as then they have their VP as Prez for four more years if Donnie did win. They will then have four years to rehabilitate the Republican Party, which isn’t nearly enough, but what the hell. Of course, if Donnie wins, they almost certainly keep the Senate, so they would have two more years to pack judgeships. However, then the Nov 2022 election will then be a bloodbath for the Republicans, but worth it in their minds.
ReplyDeleteFour Americans died in Benghazi, and the republicans wanted Hillary tried for treason. Yet, when American troops are targeted to be murdered, the republicans are silent. Hypocrisy reappears. It’s the only consistent trait of the right.
ReplyDeleteSome right wing blogs have tried to discredit The NY Times report by claiming Fake News. However, one of the cited sources for the news story is the Military Times. I wonder how fake that source is? What is their agenda? I would venture to guess they’re trying to keep American servicemen ALIVE!
A reporter asked about the report that it was in the Presidential daily briefing in February. “Truthful” Kayleigh claims in one breath that the president was never briefed on this, and later claims he is the most informed president “on the planet”. What a lying bunch of bastards.
Again, if anyone is still making excuses for this president, they are complicit and enabling in the ruining of this country.

Schiff DID see this intelligence in February.
ReplyDeleteAnd said nothing.
Did he believe it was true? Then why stay silent?
0_0, because it was classified, maybe?
