Top committee staff for Rep. Adam Schiff (D-Calif.), the chairman of the House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence, were briefed in February on intelligence about Russia offering the Taliban bounties in Afghanistan, but he took no action in response to the briefing, multiple intelligence sources familiar with the briefing told The Federalist. The intelligence was briefed to Schiff’s staff during a congressional delegation, or CODEL, trip to Afghanistan in February.
Schiff, who has acknowledged President Donald Trump was never briefed on the so-called intelligence, has thus far refused to disclose that his staff was personally briefed. The revelation raises serious questions that Schiff is once again politicizing, and perhaps even deliberately misrepresenting, key data for partisan gain.

So, anonymous sources [nope, don’t go there] are saying Adam Schiff knew about the alleged Russian bounty thing—but never did anything about it.
This also raises the specter that Shifty [the man who repeatedly lied about having evidence of Russian Collusion] was the anonymous source for the NYT hit piece on Trump.
Shifty wouldn’t stoop to that, would he?

Now it is Schiff, for awhile it was Comey, then the undefined "dark state," then Page/Strzok, then the whistle blower, and a few I've forgotten in between, but I guess now it's Schiff, the right always has to have a Snidely Whiplash to sell the demagogues' melodramas

Only verified intelligence? A look at presidents’ briefings
WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House says President Donald Trump was never briefed on intelligence that Russia had put a bounty on U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan because there wasn’t corroborating evidence.
But former intelligence officials say presidents are routinely informed about intelligence even when it’s not definitively confirmed. Intelligence that may be on shaky ground today may foreshadow tomorrow’s calamity.

How the fuck is this bullshit gonna "foreshadow" tomorrow’s calamity? Do you think even an 18 year old private ending up in Afghanistan doesn't know there are people there that want to kill him, bounty or not? Not to mention, this stuff has been going on since...war. You seem to want to make a big deal of this, why? What do you think that 18 year old private is thinking now? You think his morale is at an all time high? Russia has been financing ANYONE who is against our interests for years(hell, we probably financed the Russian exodus from Afghanistan in 1988)everyone does it, it's a tactic. It's important to understand that this money, if it exists, probably isn't even specifically for "Bounties" anyway.

So according to Omar, Congress was briefed, but trump was out of the loop. Congress usually gets a greatly reduced version of the Presidential briefings, but apparently in this case trump has completely failed to take briefings. It does not surprise me Congress did nothing, they are not supposed to interfere with the president's duties unless it is an extreme case. Now that trump is refusing to do anything, it has become an extreme case.

Not many 18 year olds there since Obama pulled out the frontline troops.
The 25 year old military advisor might think that only our enemies wanted to kill him, and he was safe with our allies. It turns out that our allies are being offered money to betray us. Some of them are going to take it.

Darth Omar raises serious untruths about Schiff and is once again politicizing, and perhaps even deliberately misrepresenting, key data for partisan gain.
Trump knew, Darth, and he can't hide from the fact he was briefed.
