Trump was not informed of a recent Ukrainian attack on Russia, The Hill’s sister network NewsNation confirmed Sunday.
According to NewsNation’s Tanya Noury, an administration official said the president was not given a heads-up about the drone attack that a Ukrainian security official alleged destroyed more than 40 planes well within Russian territory, according to The Associated Press.
That’s because trump is a national security risk.
International security risk
Trump is a global security risk.
Well yeah. The intention was for the attack to succeed.
I remember in Trump’s last presidency, Dutch security services hacked into a Russian hacking group that (IIRC) hacked amongst other things he DNC. They even had access to security cameras, and could follow everything being said and done. The info was shared to help the US government secretly defend itself but trump used it immediately for some political bullshit
This directly caused the Dutch operation to be detected and they were kicked out
The director of the Dutch intelligence agencies then, in an interview, mentioned that as of that moment they would no longer share everything with the US as it had become an unreliable partner.
I’m pretty sure this decision is still in effect with this administration. Trump is the US 's worst enemy
“We are currently clean on OPSEC”
We are currently clean on OPSEC
the level of stupidity involved with formulating this sentence still gives me pause. What the actual fuck are you trying to say, Hesgeth or whatever idiot on the signal chat… do you really think you’re ‘clean’ on ‘opsec’ IN FUCKING SIGNAL?
they heard the term opsec from one of their security detail and wanted to jam it in there because it sounded cool.
Plus; why even say it? The assumption is you’re clean on opsec until you know you aren’t. You still don’t say anything more than absolutely necessary where it might get picked up. It’s like saying “we’re still breathing oxygen”. When that changes, you’ll know, because all hell breaks loose.
I wonder whether he still feels embarrassed about that. I intermittently relive minor faux pas, and each one haunts me in a unique way. He said quite possibly the cringiest string of words of all time, and yet his knuckles aren’t white and his lips unchapped and whole. Wonder how he does it.
I think that there’s a substantial percentage of the idiot population who are entirely, blissfully unaware of how excruciatingly stupid they are. Sure they make mistakes, but life keeps on trucking, no consequences so it couldn’t have been that big a deal right?
Bill-Paxton in True Lies vibes.
Yeah why would you tell the enemy of your plans?
Yeah, its pretty typical not to give war plans to an enemy state.
Trump is one of the blyats, why would Zelenskyy inform him?
Nor should he be. Ever.
That’s why it worked.
That’s why it worked.
If Trump expects to be informed of Ukrainian intentions, they should exploit his hubris - use him to spread disinformation and divert Russian attention away from true targets.
Do that a couple times to the point the Russians don’t believe it, and then use the correct targets expecting the Russians to protect the other nearby targets like last times instead.
A Poker face is the best strategy.
It seems Donald is beginning to learn that he can’t sustainably approach foreign policy and diplomacy as if he’s ordering up a Big Mac.
He’s not learning squat
I think the facts demonstrate otherwise. It’s more accurate to say he’s not learning much, and I think that someone like Donald, who has to be the center of international attention, is going to notice when the other national players start leaving him out of the loop.
That Donald reacted to the bond markets panicking in the face of his tariffs demonstrates that someone inside that Administration has the ability to get him to see reason. It’s a bummer that they don’t bend his ear more often.
Like other successful fascists, his skill is having his finger on the pulse of his supportive factions. The capitalists are less to him important than the rabid foot soldiers, but he still doesn’t want them to see him as weak.
Nor should he ever be. Putins puppydog is not on the n2k lists. He just doesn’t have the cards
Trump would have tweeted the plans about five seconds after he told Putin so probably for the best.
CMD Taco Krasnov can suck it.
