Just as the Democrats love to cause trouble in order to divide blacks and whites in our country, indulging in the most vile of race-baiting techniques, so do they want to cause trouble between Russia and America, because that will cause problems for President Trump.
This claim about Russian troops paying a bounty to Afghani Al-Qaeda or Taliban fighters to kill American troops has about the same truth value as the Steele dossier and the Dems stated reasons for impeaching Trump. Zero. And maybe "Zero" was involved. Remember how Zero tried to cause trouble with Putin just before President Trump took office, back in Late December or early January 2017? It was a nasty shot at possibly pushing Russia into serious conflict with the U.S. Although it doesn't work in mathematics, dividing by Zero worked just fine for the last administration.
"A senior career CIA official made the decision not to have President Donald Trump briefed on raw intelligence that suggested the Russians might be offering bounties to kill U.S. soldiers, National Security Adviser Robert O’Brien said.
'She made that decision because she didn’t have confidence in the intelligence that came up,' O’Brien told reporters outside the White House on Wednesday.
'She made that call. And you know what? I think she made the right call, so I’m not going to criticize her. Knowing the facts that I know now, I stand behind that call,' he added.
The raw intelligence was leaked to the New York Times, which falsely reported that Trump was briefed on it and chose not to do anything, according to intelligence officials.
' That was a hoax, and there’s no question about it,' O’Brien said."
Why in the world would anyone waste money to get the Taliban or Al-Qaeda to do what they love to do on their own? Even if someone did give them money to kill American servicemen, it wouldn't make any difference from what they normally do.
GOP senators advised that the New York Times leak that they claimed was "solid" was believed to be a fabrication, that the intelligence currently in our possession did not support the claim.
Ratcliff, the new DNI, stated, “I have confirmed that neither the president nor the vice president were ever briefed on any intelligence alleged by The New York Times in its reporting yesterday [June 26].
“The White House statement addressing this issue earlier today, which denied such a briefing occurred, was accurate. The New York Times reporting, and all other subsequent news reports about such an alleged briefing are inaccurate,” Ratcliffe added.
The Democrats are desperate, and will try any ploy to cause trouble for Trump. Joe Biden - certainly reading off of a teleprompter or paper notes - said Trump had cognitive issues about the rumor of a bounty. Can you say LMAO? Biden's handlers - who know he can barely string three coherent words together - think he can score points by questioning President _Trump's_ cognitive competence? What Democrat "strategist" (clown) thought that one up?
