:badsurprise:

In that clip you linked, at the 2.10 minute mark, the CNN reporter said he was given the information in a written report months ago.

I would think the information WAS in the report.  But intelligence officials said the information in the report couldn't be verified, and therefore they didn't bother briefing it verbally to Trump (they know he doesn't read the reports).

"We found out Russia is giving money to the Taliban.  One of our intelligence officers thinks it might be to kill US troops.  But others think it might not be.  It might be money to help the Taliban defeat ISIS."

I think we need to wait for more information on this one, just like we did on Russia-Gate.

What level of confidence is sufficient for the president to take actions just in case it is. If there’s a 50% chance?

Agree with your assessment. So the end result is that, in the name of "public interest", GRU now know their money transfers are tracked and will change their systems, to the detriment of our abilities to track them in the future. If this is how we are wasting the intelligence advantages God help us ecause no one else will.

I would say the confidence that Saddam had WMDs was more than 50%. Just sayin

I think cannabinated's post said it best.  The US says it wants to get out of Afghanistan, and even if there's 100% chance that this story is true, that should only encourage us to get out faster, though the Rachel Maddows of the world are now beating the war drums for the koods of the world to dance to.

When I looked earlier today, the only evidence I could find that this story is true is that Russian money was found to be going to the Taliban, which we KNOW has been happening for a while now in the Taliban's fight against ISIS.  If there's more evidence than a wild guess based on someone's perception of Russia, please share.

If detailed evidence from intelligence operations ended up with NYT I would be terrified - not by the fact the story is true but by the nihilistic act of releasing it. On the other hand its apparent absence may simply mean that the leakers have some principles.

The bounties were never verified and appear to be more fake news.  The White House Press Secretary said this in a press briefing:

"While the White House does not routinely comment on alleged intelligence or internal deliberations, the CIA Director; NSA — National Security Advisor; and the Chief of Staff can all confirm that neither the President nor the Vice President were briefed on the alleged Russia — Russian bounty intelligence.

There is no consensus within the intelligence community on these allegations"


There are quite a few Republicans in congress who are not so sanguine.

IMO he has already lost a growing segment of his party, and if he were to drop further in the polls, I think he wont even be the candidate, by mutual consent. The Republicans can smell blood in the water and they know it's theirs. The battleground states and control of the Senate are slipping out of their grasp. The downward trajectory is not choppy; it's going over the end of a cliff.

We aren't hearing anything about a V shaped economic recovery now.

16% Of the country trusts Trump to handle the pandemic. That means over half of his base doesn't.

I'm sure it's a credible story that this guy believes Trump should have been briefed, but I'll take the word of the the CIA Director, the National Security Advisor, and the Chief of Staff that he wasn't briefed over the word of some CNN political analyst.  :shrug:


He was an advisor to Presidents Nixon, Ford, Reagan and Clinton. In his opinion, the denial doesn't pass the bullshit test.

The Republicans are going to jump the ship from Trump and that's getting more and more obvious everyday. None of this Russian nonsense even matters, it's all going to be Biden's baby in just a few months. 

The problem for the Republicans is that even if they attempt to disassociate themselves from Trump is that they still have no political platform. Republicans and Biden are one of the same- endorsement of the status quo.

Of course.  Most Republican Congressmen are establishment and want to keep the neocon dream of constant conflict alive so the military industrial complex thrives.

Brian Jones said:

If the story were true, it wouldn't pass the bullshit test that Trump wasn't briefed.  But if it just someone's guess at what was going on, Trump probably wouldn't have been interested.

Those presidents loved conflict, and would welcome and CIA excuse to keep a good conflict alive.

It's fair to say, however, that after being President for over 3 years, Trump is fully responsible for any information that should have been given to him.  Whether he knew or not is irrelevant.  He's the President.  It's his job to know.
