    Here, lemme help you out.....

    From my cite...

    Defense Secretary Mark Esper and Gen. Mark Milley, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said Thursday that the intelligence on the Russian bounty program had not been corroborated by intelligence agencies and that they do not believe any attacks in Afghanistan that resulted in American casualties can be directly tied to it. The U.S. is still looking into the program and Milley warned that if it proves to have been real the U.S. "will take action."


    Did you notice that part that says "if it proves to have been real the U.S. "will take action"?
    Yes, I saw that. Why can't Trump say the same?

    And if I'm reading his comments correctly Milley is referring to "concrete" evidence i.e. near certainty level. I don't think anyone claims that what has been made public rises to that level.

      Cool.
      The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

            Since you're going to refuse to engage on actual substance why should I waste my big, beautiful words?

              I thought you were opposed to lying! I HAVE engaged you on actual substance, you boob.

              why should I waste my big, beautiful words?
              After all, your big blockbuster bombshell went fizzle.

              I'll leave you to your incredibly juvenile conduct.

                I just proved you to be lying a few posts back. Pardon me if I don't extend the principle of charity.

                    Did not. You just had a little hissy fit because I didn't answer the way you wanted.

                    Pardon me if I don't extend the principle of charity.
                    Yeah, like I need the "charity" of an extreme leftist internet I HAVE engaged in actual substance, but you're too big of a to see it.

                      Of course now that some traitor has leaked classified information to the press, it's going make it that much harder to verify, because if it is true, you can be sure that the Russian government has already tied up every loose thread that we might have been able to tug on.

                      So at this point, I don't expect that this will ever be corroborated whether it's true or not. This is why stuff gets classified, because you don't want your enemies (and sometimes your friends) knowing what you know, and yet idiot liberals cheer every time an anti-American interest leaks this kind of thing to the media.

                        Doesn't matter if it's proven beyond all doubt to be true, if you have credible evidence of it, which they do, then the President, the Commander in Chief, is obligated to confront and warn the Russians in order to protect the troops, not to unquestioningly reward them which is what this treasonous president has done.

                          Every single named source who has spoken on the record, from the President himself on down, has said that these claims are uncorroborated, so I don't know where you're getting this idea that there is credible evidence to support these allegations.

                            No, he's obligated to do no such thing. He can handle this through back channels without your permission, direction or knowledge.

                              But he didn't handle it, though he did reward them handsomely.

                                No.
