Trumby found out that Russia was offering bounties to kill U.S. soldiers in Afghanistan.....

"U.S. officials intercepted electronic data showing large financial transfers from a bank account controlled by Russia’s military intelligence agency to a Taliban-linked account" - this seems too neatly bundled up

maybe the Russians completely slipped up and used an easily traceable method, but that seems pretty far fetched to me

 

[mundus]

Trump should be impeached for this alone.

From your own New York Slimes article: "according to multiple officials familiar with the matter."

That's the article my post was referring to. I read through the entire article. NOWHERE in the article does the Slimes name the .....you know ....supposed "officials" it they were referring to. The Slimes could have said that "officials" said the moon is made out of cheese. It would still be..........

Bullshit.

But leftists like you would swallow it hook, line and slimy sinker.

Bullshit.

Then read WSJ. Read AP News. Read Reuters! It’s been confirmed by multiple sources.

But you won’t because you have your head fully up Trump’s malignant, lying ass.

I don't care if a thousand news articles repeat the same lie. It's still a lie UNTIL SOMEONE DOCUMENTS A SOURCE for the information.

Unless it conforms to your own personal beliefs. Then it's true no matter what. It's called "confirmation bias", and it's pretty common.

Russia expert, Julie Ioffe stresses that Putin is not a super criminal.

They just crudely throw sh!t at the wall to see what stick.

It's a mistake to see Putin as a master mind.

OK, but this is money laundering 101 level stuff

 

[Autoprax]

Not everyone can be an expert money launderer like you, bro.

But I do like the idea that this is a HOAX to bring down the Donster.

I'm not saying it is a hoax, maybe it is sloppy or mistaken reporting

apparently a bunch of people were arrested over there stemming from the investigation around this thing

 

[Autoprax]

But trump is saying it's a HOAX.

I love the "I didn't know" defense!

How about it is true, it fits Trumps documented pattern of behavior. Possible?

 

[the janitor]

How about it is true, it fits Trumps documented pattern of behavior. Possible?

possible that the Russians were paying bounties to kill Americans - yes

possible that Trump is lying about knowing about that - yes

possible that the Russians were stupid enough to transfer large sums of money from an obvious bank account to a Taliban linked account - seems like a stretch to me

unless whoever leaked this just blew up a bunch of our sources and methods to prove a point

 

[Mike_Jones]

Don't hate the leak

Prove that this is a "leak" and not just an outright lie? STILL, NO SOURCE HAS BEEN NAMED.

A reputable news outlet would not issue such an article without naming a source.

It's bullshit. The Pentagon said it's bullshit.

[Mike_Jones]

How do you know it's a lie if you don't know the source?

The pentagon says they can't confirm the story's veracity. Until they do confirm its veracity I have to look to the article's source.

And gee, no source is named.

It's a lie.

[Autoprax]

Time will tell.

 

[Mike_Jones]

.
Time will NOT tell. If the New York Slimes had a source they should have and would have named it. Then these articles impugning the Slimes' veracity would not take place.

Until the Times names a source are we just supposed to assume that it's true? Bullshit. Until the Slimes names a source the article is......

Bullshit.
