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."

So, there appears to be no question that the Russians did this. Either Trump knew about it, did nothing, and is now lying, or he didn't know about. Which is way worse.
The White House is not denying the story. They are denying that Trump was briefed. Either way, this happened in March, and we responded by doing..... NOTHING. Another utter disaster by the moron in the White House and his administration.

Is the Wall Street Journal lying, too?
Russian Spy Unit Paid Taliban to Attack Americans, U.S. Intelligence Says

Once again, the White House is not denying that this is true, only that they never briefed the Commander in Chief of the Armed Forces that the men and women under him were being targeted by Russia. Why would that be? Because maybe he would have just told his buddy Putin that we were on to them? Where are the sanctions? Have we now decided that it's okay for Russia to pay people to kill our troops? Good God. What have become at this point?

Arminius = forum clown
First of all, no one in this administration denied the story
Secondly, they all lie about everything, his is nothing new
They said the President didn't know about the story, they never denied that it happened
Even Fox News verified the information
The Taliban never said it wasn't true.
There is no end, to what you will do to defend Trump. Including the deaths of American soldiers.
