The UV light has the same objective as drinking bleach. Not exactly high IQ activities.
 
Intelligence that Russia was paying the Taliban to kill U.S. troops 'WAS in Donald Trump's daily brief,' official claims - as White House insist spies don't agree on whether it's true
  • White House said intelligence report that Russia offered to pay members of the Taliban to kill U.S. troops was not 'verified' and that is why Trump was not briefed
  • Kayleigh McEnany there was 'dissent' in the intel community over its accuracy
  • But source tells CNN that it was included in the Presidential Daily Brief, a printed compendium produced for the president
  • It is rare for intelligence to be presented as 100 per cent accurate with complete agreement among community, which is composed of 17 intelligence agencies
  • Trump has become notorious for not reading the brief, officials have said
  • The White House drew a distinction between him being actively briefed and it being included in the PDB
  • Speaker Nancy Pelosi is demanding the administration brief all House members
  • 'The questions that arise are: was the President briefed, and if not, why not, and why was Congress not briefed,' she wrote to CIA director and the DNI
  • Sen. Chuck Schumer wants similar briefing for all senators
  • Some lawmakers getting briefed at White House on Monday - all eight were Republican congressman
  • One revealed that the bounties might go as far back as 2014 or 2015

It infuriates me that our country has to be world cop. We would bomb & waste foreign populations, occupy their land and maul their people. Then we send our military home dead or damaged. What the Russians did doesn't necessarily motivate the "indigenous enemy" as we had done our share of fucking over their countries. Nothing surprises me anymore about our country. Actually, I expect a daily fuck up. .
 
Now there are reports this was known in spring of 2019.
 
February!

February he was told!
"But that stance clashed with the disclosure by two officials that the intelligence was included months ago in Mr. Trump’s President’s Daily Brief document — a compilation of the government’s latest secrets and best insights about foreign policy and national security that is prepared for him to read. One of the officials said the item appeared in Mr. Trump’s brief in late February; the other cited Feb. 27, specifically."

But he doesn't like to read briefings. He wants them given to him orally. Of course he doesn't like to listen either.

"
But in denying that Mr. Trump was briefed, administration officials have been coy about how it is defining that concept and whether it includes both oral briefings and the President’s Daily Brief. “He was not personally briefed on the matter,” Ms. McEnany told reporters when asked specifically about the written briefing. “That is all I can share with you today.”

Mr. Trump is said to often neglect reading that document, preferring instead to receive an oral briefing summarizing highlights every few days. Even in those face-to-face meetings, he is particularly difficult to brief on national security matters. He often relies instead on conservative media and friends for information, current and former intelligence officials have said."

This is just so sad that this country has a president that cannot read a briefing.
Ends up making no difference when it is reported. He doesn't listen or read it anyway.
 
Need to keep in mind that it's Trump, who is a proven liar many times over, that is claiming he didn't know....Why should we believe anything this POS says?

Because he's religious and something something about Joe Biden.

ABM's base personality is good to the core. Why else would I, a Trump hater, be so attracted to ABM's really good qualities? I'm not going to turn on him because of politics.

He just pretends to be good but his actions tell a different story. I don't give him a free pass because he smiles and says hello, how are ya.

I wonder if he still doesn't know. Maybe someone should hand him a copy of the newspaper
 
Now I understand why Trump has no memory of being briefed about this. It was an exceptionally busy day. The day John Bolton claims he briefed Trump about Russian bounty on dead Americans, Trump first met with actors playing Lisa Page and Peter Strzok in a pro-Trump theater troupe. They were part of a play that consists mostly of dramatic reading of Page and Strzok's mushy emails to one another. Trump enjoyed this so much the meeting lasted three times longer than originally scheduled. Then he met with Diamond and Silk, who assured him that no president had done more for the African-American community than he had.

With so much important stuff going on, who could be expected to remember a boring briefing about killing Americans?

So wouldn't this technically be an act of war?

No. If it were true, which 90% of our intelligence agencies have serious doubts about, having seen no credible evidence of any kind, it would be funding an act of terrorism.

But it's merely a discounted rumor, started internally by the exact same Deep State insurgent in our CIA who then "leaked" this fake news to the NYT and added the lie that the POTUS and VPOTUS had been briefed about it and ignored the threat.

Seriously, how many absurd Russian Hoaxes are you willing to swallow? :dunno:

No, the question is how many absurd Russian Hoaxes are you willing to swallow?

Tough question to nail down a firm answer on. Apparently, the guy really enjoys the taste of a good, ol' fashioned Russian Hoax and, thusly, may be willing to swallow quite a few more, before it's all said and done.
