Anyone Watching Rachel??

[bdamomma]

She was angry, and just said she has been for 12 years and before was radio and covered scandals she has never seen anything like this. We need to stop this.

[renate]

1. Not near a tv or I'd be watching... which scandal, please?

The Russian bounty one?

[bdamomma]

7. about the

bounty on American soldiers how Russia is involved, and tRump has said nothing since March.

36. Here is the NYTimes story on this

https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/26/us/politics/russia-afghanistan-bounties.html?action=click&module=Top%20Stories&pgtype=Homepage

American intelligence officials have concluded that a Russian military intelligence unit secretly offered bounties to Taliban-linked militants for killing coalition forces in Afghanistan — including targeting American troops — amid the peace talks to end the long-running war there, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The United States concluded months ago that the Russian unit, which has been linked to assassination attempts and other covert operations in Europe intended to destabilize the West or take revenge on turncoats, had covertly offered rewards for successful attacks last year.
Islamist militants, or armed criminal elements closely associated with them, are believed to have collected some bounty money, the officials said. Twenty Americans were killed in combat in Afghanistan in 2019, but it was not clear which killings were under suspicion.

The intelligence finding was briefed to President Trump, and the White House’s National Security Council discussed the problem at an interagency meeting in late March, the officials said. Officials developed a menu of potential options — starting with making a diplomatic complaint to Moscow and a demand that it stop, along with an escalating series of sanctions and other possible responses, but the White House has yet to authorize any step, the officials said.

37. Thank you so much!

That’s so kind of you!

I’m still not able to watch TV but I hope he is being eviscerated on the Saturday morning news shows.

It’d be one thing for him to know and do nothing—typical, just like with the virus—but to know and then to actively campaign for Russia to be allowed back into the G8... that is absolutely shocking. There can be no doubt that Putin has total control over him after this.

2. The first 15 minutes was jaw dropping

Catch the replay if you missed it.

[lordsummerisle]

3. The piece about the bounties

put on Americans in Afghanistan by Russia was pretty shocking.

[Zoonart]

4. T.R.A.I.T.O.R!

13. You can also listen as a podcast

After the show sorry on the west coast

[jimlup]

6. She's been on fire all week...

Telling it like it is.

Go Rachel!

[sop]

8. I'm watching...she seems overwhelmed by everything...the totality of Trump's murderous

incompetence...this administrations outright criminality...everything.

[bdamomma]

9. Covid in

Houston is horrible, the Judge was right since when is human life viewed as collateral damage.

[PA Democrat]

12. Texas Lt. Governor Dan Patrick thinks it is.

Recall his comment about old people should be willing to sacrifice for the sake of the economy. Republicans value money over people.

[czarjak]

26. Dannie Scott Goeb?

[Sogo]

10. Giving aid and comfort to the enemy....

Putin must have something BIG on Trump.

[bdamomma]

18. I caught

Bolton on the news this week, he mentioned that Putin does not look at tRump as a equal. Yeah I bet, tRump is fucking around with a a Ex-KGB'er.

[Heartstrings]

19. Trump is playing tiddlywinks while

Putin is playing chess and is 5 moves ahead of the moron.

[sarcasmo]

11. What we have known since day 1. Vlad owns Trump.

[Cha]

28. Exactly.. and now this..

the coup de grace'. So far:nuke;

[Mike Nelson]

14. No but...

... there was a CNN report and I got the NYT article in my email. I thought the story would be bigger... When I saw the article, I thought ...wow. Now they are covering it, but I thought there would be guests lining up, longer segments, etc...

[lunatica]

15. I watched her

I feel exactly the way she does. We are living in insane times when there is no justification for it. The fact that Trump is condoning Putin paying bounties on American troops is as insane as it gets.

[jalan48]

16. Great show.

[R B Garr]

17. It took Rachel for us to finally believe this isn't just

an internet rumor. She said it perfectly. So horrible.

[FightingIrish]

20. Fox has nothing on this.

Their lead is Trump protecting statues.

[relayerbob]

21. People keep saying that IQ45 has no strategy

They are incorrect. He is doing exactly what he was put in place for - to dismantle the US just as the USSR was dismantled. Putin is laughing his ass off.

[bdamomma]

31. I think Putin

is going for to break up the US just like Russia was broken apart. He's a devoted KGB'er. This is his revenge on the US.

[FailureToCommunicate]

22. She was seething mad! Called out Trump for doing nothing, NOTHING about the scalps

that Putin collected off US servicemen.

Maybe now Republicans will sit up and grumble??

Nah.

[dem4evah]

23. HELL no...

they'll deflect, deny, obfuscate and then tomorrow he'll fart on twitter and they'll flock like flies to shit over it. Rinse........repeat.

[FailureToCommunicate]

32. Welcome to DU!

[not_the_one]

35. You've certainly got THEIR number...

Welcome to DU.

[luvtheGWN]

24. But will the military sit up and grumble?

And will they be mad enough -- and hurt and insulted enough -- to vote Trump OUT?

[Cha]

29. That's what I want to know.. Will this news

get to the Military?

[seta1950]

25. I watch her ever night

😲😳

[czarjak]

27. What have we got to lose though I suppose maybe?

[Cha]

30. That's some cold blooded shit.

[Gothmog]

33. Rachel was great last night

[Vinca]

34. She was visibly upset. I swear I think she was tearing up. That story she did about the bounty on

our military members and Trump ignoring it was really something.
