Liz Cheney Twitter @Liz_Cheney If reporting about Russian bounties on US forces is true, the White House must explain: 1. Why weren’t the president or vice president briefed? Was the info in the PDB? 2. Who did know and when? 3. What has been done in response to protect our forces & hold Putin accountable?

No, looks like she is concerned about why the President wasn’t briefed.“

No, then she’d demand the CIA to explain why they didn’t brief. By demanding the White House “explain” a number of things, she’s putting the onus on Trump and echoing the Democrats.

She’s buying The NY Times story and using it to hammer Trump and prologue our Afghan war

— and undercut Trumps re-election

She’s high in the Congressional power structure. Her shots at Trump over the past three days may signal a turning. Like wolves surrounding their exhausted prey, the GOPe may sense that he’s wounded and bleeding enough that they can end the charade of support and go in for the kill. They may think he can be ousted before the convention, and replaced by some establishment stooge, maybe Nikki?

The Russians lost a lot of mercs thanks to Trump... it is doubtful they’d just overlook that.

could be wrong...but wasn’t it ours that were all insisting PDJT was cavorting with hookers in Moscow? And that Putin was blackmailing him?

The old broad just needs to shut the hell up.

Not if her conscious goal is to oust Trump, maybe before the convention so the establishment can put in Pence or Nikki or Rubio.

If that’s the plan, expect more tweets from Liz tailed at targeting POTUS until she gets a kill shot

I don’t want our troops to be targeted for bounties. But three observations:
1) We are fighting a long grueling war against the Taliban.
They want to kill our forces when opportunity avails. Are they really going to “try harder” because of a bounty from the Russians they hate even more than they hate us?
2) During the Carter administration, the US supplied massive amounts of weapons to the Taliban for their use in killing thousands of Russian troops, downing planes and helicopters, etc. Are we really shocked, shocked, shocked, that Russian military officers would want some payback?
3) What is the evidence that this bounty scheme really existed? Doesn’t the fact that it involves Russian intel officers sounds a bit suspicious? That Putin even knew about it? Other than ask Putin not to allow it, what can we do to stop them? Nuke-em?

The whole thing sounds like a repeat of the Ukraine phone hoax perpetrated by US intel.

[A lot of Russians died in Afghanistan, with weapons and training provided by us. And several hundred Russian mercenaries died in Syria directly at our hand.]


A lot of Americans (100K) died in Korea and Vietnam, with weapons and training provided by the Russians. The Russians lost 13K men in Afghanistan. Even with the Russian mercs killed in Syria, we’re almost 90K short of what the Russians inflicted on us. The Russians have a lot of payback coming.

That was the Comey - Brennan group- whose connections go to the CPUSA. Guess what country’s intel services supported the CPUSA?

Yeah, arming the Afghans with shoulder launched missiles to kill Ruskiis is much better than putting a bounty on American soldiers for Afghans to kill them.

This NYT story is just a diversion to take attention away from the Strzok notes implicating Obama and Biden in the spying of Trump and his campaign. Also, criminal referrals are going to be coming out from the DOJ. They have to keep the public’s mind occupied elsewhere.

“ Give Liz a break. She is trying to defend her father who sent troops to Afghan.”

She’s taking a shot at the president when he’s running for re-election and is under heavy bombardment from the other side

She’s fragging him.

Liz’s tweet is almost word for word the same as Adam Schiff, who is also pushing the NYTimes story.
