NY Times caught blatantly lying about Russia targeting U.S. Soldiers

I read it was in the briefings that Trump was given in March. However, Trump often does not bother reading them. Nor does he pay much attention at verbal briefs. If that is an excuse to reds, then they do not care about a disinterested part-time president.
 
NY Times caught blatantly lying about Russia targeting U.S. Soldiers
Another day, another embarrassment to what's left of journalism by the NY Times.

"Members of the American intelligence community have concluded that members of the Russian intelligence unit offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants if they successfully killed members of the American military, the New York Times reported. The problem, however, is that almost everyone involved in this story says it isn't true. The White House, Russia and even the Taliban have said the Times' story is false."

Yes, it's coalition troops. And they were already SO happy with Trump's leadership. Can you imagine if this had come out and we were still having the G-7 this week? You remember the G-7. The one that Trump invited Putin to.

Why? We knew about this. We just didn't do anything. Because the guy in the White House is owned by Putin.

Do you have any idea how intelligence is collected and processed? Any idea how much UNPROCESSED intelligence is NOT reported to POTUS? What this is most likely to mean is, there's another America hating "analyst" like snowden in the intel community who feels he knows more than the leadership. Do you even have any concept of the value of information like this if it proved true? You're clueless. Take a creative writing class at your local community collage, the fucking nyt will snap you up and make you the lead political reporter in a heartbeat

ROTFLFMAO!!! How stupid do you think people are. The Russians are putting a bounty on coalition troops, and no one thought to tell the CIC? Don't be a fucking tool for Trump. He's a moron, and if you believe he didn't know, so are you. End of story.
 
Here is a CBS news correspondent. This is apparently a developing story [not that that would keep the Trump haters from jumping the gun]:

Let’s put our thinking caps on here for a minute. Why should it be surprising that Russian spooks would be bribing the Taliban to go after US fighters? I’m sure we never did that sort of thing while Russia was in Afghanistan...or well lol.

Indeed, why would the Taliban require incentive to do that?

Also, did money ever actually change hands or was this something that was picked up by our intelligence assets and never acted on by Russia? Or acted on in any significant way.

Maybe, those are the sorts of reasons it was never included in the presidents intelligence briefing.

Keep making excuses. That's all you've got left. I guess you are okay with this. Russian asset indeed.

I give up. Intelligence is a game for intellects. That counts you out completely. Watch "The Imitation Game" and look up the purple code. They have something in common, see if you can figure it out.

I don't care if Trump knew or not. I suspect he did. If he didn't, it is an utter failure, either of his ability to read, or the Administrations ability to conduct foreign policy. Keep making excuses. It's what you do best.

A well respected *actual journalist* with CBS is calling this a developing story and you seem to disagree.

Maybe you should contact her.

"Developing story." I take that to mean that more news is expected to come out - not that the NY Times invented it, as the OP insists. But I can see why you hope the story will die.

Dude, if the legs fall out from under this one before it gets going—just don’t bite the next time. I know it’s hard to accept, but you can’t trust much of the media when it comes to reporting on Trump.

They put this story out there before it was fully vetted. And it’s hardly the first time they’ve done it.
 
This thread is the new normal. The Trump Administration responds to this by doing nothing, the Trumptards make excuses. Lather, rinse, repeat. See you in November.
