Pentagon says ‘no corroborating’ evidence to stand up NYT report on Russian bounties

Why didn't anyone tell that nekkid alien that we wear CLOTHES on earth??? I can see the NYT headline now..."Trump fails to provide clothing to visiting Space Alien".

[BradyLS]

I was saying the same to an acquaintance. I’ll bet a bounty is a lot cheaper than going through all the folderol with scrapping together, buying, and shipping arms. It just looks more unseemly and crass.

[Freee-dame]

New press secretary Kayleigh McEnany is doing a great job of exposing the dishonest media. They simply do not report it.

[boatbums]

If the Pentagon did have corroborating evidence it would have been leaked by now.

Bingo!

I doubt the Dems, the MSM, Putin or his Chinese cohorts ever imagined the resolve, determination and strength of Donald Trump. I can't think of a single politician who wouldn't have crumbled under the non-stop persecution from day one by now. We MUST reelect Trump or the swamp wins!

[boatbums]

I expect they STILL have a list of potential "scandals", lies and false narratives to throw at Trump - that "six ways from Sunday" threat Schumer let slip. They are getting desperate now because so far nothing has stuck and Trump's base is more intent and fired up than ever. God has been thwarting and confounding their every trick!

We MUST get the House back along with reelecting Trump and keeping the senate or there will be no end to their rage at being defeated AGAIN.

Maybe I’m getting that mixed up though I thought Russian Georgia also faced heavy persecution?

[ek_hornbeck]

Only in the sense that pretty much everyone suffered under Soviet rule, but no, Georgians were never really singled out for persecution under Stalin - both because Stalin and Beria were themselves Georgian, and because Georgia didn't have a strong push towards independence in the 1930's.

In contrast, in Ukraine there was strong nationalist and anti-communist sentiment among the farmers, so Stalin set out to crush them by depriving them of any possible means of supporting themselves (though it's debated how much of the famine itself was intentionally engineered vs. simply the consequence of failed Soviet agricultural policy).

Imagine that ! Taliban wanting to Kill american soldiers, whooda thunk. And Russia offering a bounty, but Trump covered it up...

It's almost as believable as the COVID19 death toll and that climate change will kill us within ten years!

[Morpheus2009]

But I thought they said he worked for the Russians. Which one is it?

[usawonww2]

[Sam Gamgee]

Interesting, thanks.

[Thunder90]

The Russians probably planted the story with the NYT. They love chaos.

[Gay State Conservative]

As if *that* will stop Rat Party Headquarters.

[2CAVTrooper]

Or the chi-coms planted it.

[Morpheus2009]

Would Americans need bounties to kill a real invading army? Did we need bounties for the Revolution? I doubt most did.
