U.S. congressional leaders will seek more information from top intelligence officials Thursday on reported Russian payments to Taliban militants to kill American soldiers in Afghanistan.

Democrats in Congress have accused Trump of not taking intelligence information concerning soldiers’ deaths seriously enough. The White House has struggled to explain the Trump administration’s response to the bounty reports, but has not commented on their substance or denied the information was included in written presidential intelligence briefings.

No American soldiers DIED. The report could not be verified. BUT the do nothing Socialist Democrats want another reason to impeach President Trump. Democrats have nothing better for America, impeach, impune, discredit when the President did nothing wrong.

Why Radcliffe, ? Just confirmed May 21, built-in deniability. CIA and Richard Grenell (Acting NSI before Radcliffe ) should testify

Would you believe anything that came out of DNI_Ratcliffe's mouth? After seeing his actions in the impeachment hearings, I wouldn't!

Trump has turn all Americans to believe not the truth but, himself, so nothing will come out of it

What's the point?

Heinrich Müller for hitler. 🐀cliff for trump.

Again? New version of the story?

Radcliffe cannot be believed at all
