President Donald Trump has since strongly denied that he was told of this intelligence, and has attacked its credibility, characterizing the existence of Russian bounty payments as fake.
But three separate Taliban sources told Insider that they were aware of Russian bounty payments being made — though they stressed that only the less-disciplined elements on the fringes of the group would take up such an offer.

In my view, that is all hearsay and has not been verified... I don't trust the media as there is no verification of sources...

Sgt (Join to see) Really you should just block Tony Yang, too much attacking. Not worthwhile

SSG (Join to see) - You choose the journalists and information you want to believe as do I, so you and I live in two different worlds. Initially, I threw my fidelity behind DT as he’s ProLife (I cannot trust Proponents of baby-killing. Brrrr). I do a lot of research, temper it with discernment and speak the truth I can determine. Always will.

Sgt (Join to see) - Well he says he's pro life. I could've sworn he had a pro-choice disposition before. If he has to say he's pro life to get reelected he will. I'm pro choice. We bomb men women and children in other countries but make ourselves feel better by saying we're pro choice. We meaning Americans. I'm not that bent up about this issue.

Does anyone consider a Taliban source credible?
If you do, it is because you have never served in Afghanistan.

1SG (Join to see), and how does that accomplish transparency to the public? Do you honestly believe the Commander in Chief will allow any subordinate to contradict him?
Seriously.

SFC Herve Abrams - My personal belief is that is some BS that a Taliban Muldoon invented to keep the gravy train flowing to his buddies from where that money more likely came from.
What I think is that this is serious enough to put some assets on the task to ferret out the truth. So long as that information gets to decision-makers that can do something about it, I'm good with that.
If I needed to know, they would tell me.

Col Joseph Lenertz
No. 30 year career senior CIA analyst made the decision that the information would not be sent up to POTUS because it lacked verification/corroboration. It was never sent to Trump. Another NYT failure.
