Fact checking Trump's claims that Kurds are releasing ISIS prisoners on purpose

In defending his decision to remove US troops from northern Syria, President Donald Trump echoed talking points from Turkish officials, suggesting that Kurdish forces might be purposely allowing ISIS detainees to escape camps and prisons.

"Kurds may be releasing some to get us involved," Trump tweeted Monday morning.....Kurds may be releasing some to get us involved. Easily recaptured by Turkey or European Nations from where many came, but they should move quickly. Big sanctions on Turkey coming! Do people really think we should go to war with NATO Member Turkey? Never ending wars will end!

— Donald J. Trump October 14, 2019 Facts First: Contrary to Trump's allegation, US officials have told CNN there are no indications that the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces have intentionally released any of the 10,000-plus ISIS prisoners they guard.

PART 1: CNN Insider Blows Whistle on Network Pres…:

Jeff Zucker already wrote These a month ago. How's it feel to not be able to be a journalist but to be told exactly what to do every day with no ability for free thought. JeffZuckerUsedUsAll

No, not true!!!! It's because 'TRUMP IS AN IDIOT' Accept the facts because it's not only Trump supporters who have been living in an altinate reality. Far to many people make excuses and jokes about his antics. Trump is not merely unqualified, he is a danger to the entire world.

Who is checking

الأكراد لا يهمهم سو مصالحهم (في سوريا) لا اهميه لهم لكن بداخل كردستان لها بعض الاهميه لكون كردستان تمتلك مساحه كبيره من الارض ولها بعض الثروه وغيرها اما أكراد سوريا مجرد مليشيات تعتمد بشكل اساسي على الدافع الأمريكي وليس لديها بداخل سوريا نقاط ذات اهميه ولا توجد مصالح كبيره

HAHAHAHAHAHAH! You just got Okeefed. Grabblers always lose. Cant wait for the day of the rope:)

CNN busted by Project Veritas just proves what we already knew. You aren’t a news channel. You are a propaganda arm of the left. Zucker’s a leftist schmuck.

CNN is not qualified to wipe it's as?.

Corrupt News Network Just Said “fact checking” Baaaaaaaaahahaha cnnexposed

The mainstream media is a joke.

Nothing you do is related to facts...nor actual journalism.

Trump claims are worth what?

I'm sorry to the CNN admin of this page. You're just a slave for Zucker, it's not your fault.

At least WHCA should have a 'ding' award for disinformation reporting
