It’s Official. Russia Offered Bounties For The Killing Of US Troops In Afghanistan. The Administration knew about it for months. Biden gets it right. What passes for Trump’s defense? This:
In a statement late Saturday Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said he had “confirmed that neither the President nor the Vice President were ever briefed on any intelligence” related to a Russian bounty, and that all news reports “about an alleged briefing are inaccurate.”
Never briefed? About Russia paying for the killing of US troops? What, exactly, would rise to the level of requiring a briefing if not this? Time for Trump to forbid the military from voting by mail.
