I strongly suspect that this so called “leak” was something manufacturered and put out by Trump Derangement Syndrome Russia-Russia-Russia dead enders in the Intelligence Community. I call Bull Shit!

He wasn’t briefed because it was fake. The same intel traitors who said HE was a Russian spy are the ones making the claim.

And The Lincoln Project is already running at least one ad stating the story as fact. I saw Conway Tweet it earlier. Amazing how quickly a story fueled by un-named sources gains legs and is already the subject of Ads within hours. This is aimed directly at DJT’s base. The Pentagon and a host of high level Intel officials do not want to see this President re-elected.

With 5 MILLION VIEWS on Twitter alone in that many hours.

This at a time when CNN and NBC News don't even have stories about the allegation. that means that the Lincoln Project NeverTrumpers were briefed BEFORE the story broke. That means treason among U.S. security officials at high levels.

Why is anyone surprised? Russians have been involved in all kinds of alliances against the US. If Russia can ally with Shiite Islamists in Iran, it can ally with Sunni Islamists in Afghanistan. Note that we are currently allied with anti-Taliban Islamists in Afghanistan, just as we allied with anti-Soviet Islamists during the Soviet occupation. Some of those Islamists later formed the Taliban to fight against other Islamists like Ahmad Shah Massoud, whose Northern Alliance faction we brought to power after 9/11.

On Quora feeds, this claim is already sourced many dozen different “leading” questions. .....

Oh, yes. It is coordinated.

Well-does anyone care 1) why they didn’t tell Trump? 2) how far up the food chain this went before the Intel didn’t get to Trump? 3) what is Trump going to do about them NOT telling him? And 4) what’s he going to do in response to Russia? Those are all pretty important questions.

The whole problem with the claim is that killing coalition forces has always been the Taliban’s job description from the get-go. It’s not as if they really need any cheerleaders to encourage them.

“I strongly suspect that this so called “leak” was something manufacturered and put out by Trump Derangement Syndrome Russia-Russia-Russia dead enders in the Intelligence Community.”

Via their house organ, the NYT, which will cite “anonymous sources”. Not the first time it’s run one of these stories up the flagpole. But you’d think they would have given up on trying to push Russia after so many failed past Russia-attempts to bring Trump down.

anyone who knows Trump in the slightest knew the story was false or at least distorted to begin with.

Dems and anti Trump people will keep manufacturing more wrong info to tell their followers, to keep them numb and unable to accept truth.
