Intercepted bank transfers show Russia poured money into Taliban-linked accounts

Hello floridafan,

American officials intercepted data that supported their conclusion that Russia had secretly offered bounties to Taliban forces for killing U.S. and coalition forces.

Three officials familiar with the intelligence told the New York Times that intercepted electronic data showed large financial transfers from a bank account controlled by Russia’s military intelligence agency to an account linked to the Taliban.

That evidence supported claims about the bounty program described by detainees during interrogations, and undercut White House denials that the intelligence was too thinly sourced to present to President Donald Trump in his daily briefing.

Investigators also identified numerous Afghans by name who were linked to the suspected Russia operation, officials told the Times, including a man believed to have helped distribute some of the funds and purportedly since fled to Russia.

The White House and national security council declined to comment on the new revelations, as did director of national intelligence John Ratcliffe, who is expected to meet privately Wednesday with the Republican-led Senate Intelligence Committee.

Another reason to get rid of 45.

A liar who clearly doesn't care about American lives.

"Oh, it's only a few lives.

More people die from cancer.

What's the big deal, anyway?"

Do you all understand that paper ballots provide absolute paperwork showing the validity of elections? I suspect the rightys do not want paper because polling machines do not have that ability.
 
You know the moment we pull out of Afghanistan Russia is moving right in, right?

I hope everybody understands that.

It would be like Syria 2.0

Cheat-by-mail bears no resemblance to absentee voting. But you already knew that.
