The Afghanistan Bounty Report

[RighteousnessTemperance&]

You don’t get it. White House denied existence of such a report, then belatedly admitted its was there but it never went all the way up to the president. first question is whether there was such a report.

There was no report of fact. No question. And this is the most important point from the outset.

Continuing to conflate rumor with fact by ignoring the distinction is obfuscation. There was no report of fact, only of rumor. There was no report of fact to reach the president, and evidently no report of rumor ever reached him. Had a report of rumor reached him, there would be nothing but rumor to act on.

Really, you are the one who doesn't get it. None of this should have been leaked to, or published by an irresponsible, subversive media like the NYT.

The leak was illegal, regardless of whether the report was fact or rumor. Official comments regarding such leaks of classified intel do not have to reflect what is known.

He is in self-destruction mode all by himself.

Where liberals and leftists miss the boat is that it is the Democrats who have been close to Russia from FDR and Cordell Hull to Biden. The GOP from Taft and Patton till now have always disliked Russia. So Trump's base would not put up with anything from Putin. It is Germany and Obama who liked Putin.

More like historical facts that the Democrats have always been closer to Russia. Even the New York Times covered up the Russian-caused famine in the Ukraine. And the Democrats had glowing accounts of the wonders of life under Stalin.

Trump administration narrows suspects in Russia bounties leak investigation: report


Top White House officials have reportedly narrowed the list of potential individuals who could have leaked information about Russian agents providing funds to Taliban-linked militants to target American troops in Afghanistan.

Politico Playbook reported Tuesday that fewer than 10 people remain on a list of suspects in the internal investigation, a sign that President Trump is serious about finding and possibly punishing whichever official was behind the leak to the media.
