Is this really surprising?
Intel agencies sift through vast amounts of unconfirmed rumors and false leads before they make credible, confirmed reports to pass to higher ups
Its not the first time we've seen unconfirmed wild rumors get leaked to the media from intel agencies to form an anti-Trump hit piece, nor the first to turn out false


inb4 claiming that intel agencies didn't actually find it non-credible and that trump is now lying about them, or whatever other contortions are required to maintain this media cycle



there is no way you arent trolling

NATO officials say they were briefed: https://www.businessinsider.com/russian-bounty-us-soldiers-afghanistan-nato-officials-briefed-trump-denies-2020-6

Perhaps the intelligence community figured that it wasn't worth the President's time. He has a very limited attention span.


So the intelligence was credible enough to share with the Brits and NATO, but not the President or Vice President?

Also, what changed a week ago? Did the IC get more corroboration or what?

Did you really think, countries like Russia and China, etc., "wouldn't" offer bounties on US soldiers? LOL

What should we do? Personally, I think we should assassinate their joint chiefs but I'm very pro American and care about the military.

You falsely assume that we can do anything. This President doesn’t do shit and nobody in the administration cares about this story.

The only way the few things that got done so far, like judicial nominations or tax “reform”, were done because they were pet projects of Republican congressmen or of his advisors pre-Trump that were pushed on the table first. They oversaw and helped execute those and just coasted, or left and then were succeeded by total sycophants that had no actual policy agenda...

There's nothing to do. In the old days we would send black ops people to take care of things, But these days, it's a different ball game.

Electing a spineless asshole like Trump has consequences.

What is Trump’s course of action? Only giving Putin a handy-J next face-to-face rather than sucking him off like he did in Helsinki?

Do you think we should assassinate any members of the Russian government for this? Perhaps we can pay Chechen terrorists? What would you support?
