It does reach some reasonable conclusions though.In other words, not only is there not a consensus intelligence finding, there is a consensus view among the military brass that the story hasn’t been proven. That does not mean it is impossible; many things are possible. Russian support for the Taliban while the Taliban have been at war with us for 19 years is already well-known, and it is certainly plausible that Russian intelligence might go further than that. But every report on this story has, properly, treated the possible offer or payment of bounties as a significant and newsworthy escalation.
Worth looking into, and taking seriously.
Whatever you think about the credibility of the story, your cult leader has done neither.
So... eat a bag of s, bootlick.

The commander of US Central Command who oversees troops in Afghanistan s on your debunked conspiracy theory.fake news national review tells conspiracy theorist what he wants to hear.
WASHINGTON — Two months after top Pentagon officials vowed to get to the bottom of whether the Russian government bribed the Taliban to kill American service members, the commander of troops in the region says a detailed review of all available intelligence has not been able to corroborate the existence of such a program.
"It just has not been proved to a level of certainty that satisfies me," Gen. Frank McKenzie, commander of the U.S. Central Command, told NBC News. McKenzie oversees U.S. troops in Afghanistan. The U.S. continues to hunt for new information on the matter, he said.
"We continue to look for that evidence," the general said. "I just haven't seen it yet. But … it's not a closed issue."
McKenzie's comments, reflecting a consensus view among military leaders, underscores the lack of certainty around a narrative that has been accepted as fact by Democrats and other Trump critics, including presidential nominee Joe Biden, who has cited Russian bounties in attacks on President Donald Trump.
U.S. intelligence agencies have for years do ented Russian financial and military support to the Taliban, but a Russian program to incentivize the killing of American service members would represent a significant escalation.
Trump said he did not raise the issue of Russian payments to the Taliban in his most recent meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin. Critics have said he should have. Senior military officials say they don't believe the intelligence is strong enough to act on.
Echoing comments in July by Gen. Mark Milley, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, McKenzie said that if he could establish that the Russians were offering payments to kill Americans, he would push to forcefully respond. But the intelligence is far from conclusive, he said.
"I found what they presented to me very concerning, very worrisome. I just couldn't see the final connection, so I sent my guys back and said, look, keep digging. So we have continued to dig and look because this involves potential threats to U.S. forces, it's open," he said, adding, "I just haven't seen anything that closes that gap yet."
A U.S. military official familiar with the intelligence added that after a review of the intelligence around each attack against Americans going back several years, none have been tied to any Russian incentive payments.

Happy to accept that. It is pretty serious, and you would want some pretty damned good evidence before acting on it.
Now, what has Trump said about it specifically, bootlick?

With your track record of falling for these Russia stories over the last 4 years?
Who ing cares? Why should Trump respond to fake news from anonymous sources? It was a bull story fed to the media by war mongers wanting to keep our troops in Afghanistan.
Indeed. Why should the president care about the troops under his command.With your track record of falling for these Russia stories over the last 4 years?

Such a puzzling question.
https://www.msn.com/en-us/news/world...rs/ar-BB17kPHa"I have never discussed it with him," he told Axios in an interview.
Trump talked by phone with Putin as recently as last Thursday.
In all, he has spoken with the Kremlin leader at least eight times since late February, when intelligence flagging alleged Russian bounties was included in the secret daily presidential briefing, Axios reported.
I don't give a rats ass about afghanistan.
I do care if some other country is deliberately targeting our troops.
You ing know your cult leader licks putins taint at every opportunity, but seem content, because of your worship of him, to never bother asking why.
Tell, you what, bootlick.With your track record of falling for these Russia stories over the last 4 years?

Give me, right here, the most critical thing Donald Trump has said about Vladimir Putin. Show me up.

... and...crickets.
I'll wait.
Trump doesn't have the balls to openly say about his boss -
but comrade TSA is surely googling that
"no one has been tougher on russia than trump" talking point in 5,4,3...
Ok, after some reflection, I do care about Afghanistan. Hopefully we can stabilize the country a bit so that it isn't a security gap when we leave.
Troops do not appreciate trump saying he would look into it and not getting back to them on this.
Still waiting TSA
Worst thing Trump has said about Putin.
"Marsha marsha marsha!!!"
TSA’s silence confirms fold.
... and back to sweet sweet nothing
