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 why it worked.
According to the latest reports, he still doesn’t know they happened because he regularly doesn’t attend his own security briefings. Not to worry though, he’ll be fully briefed this evening when Fox and Friends covers it tonight.
Yeah, its pretty typical not to give war plans to an enemy state.
Nor should he ever be. Putins puppydog is not on the n2k lists. He just doesn’t have the cards
That’s because trump is a national security risk.
International security risk
International man of Pisstory.
Trump is a global security risk.
Was Trump informed that he is a nitwit and a jackass and should be in prison?
Just put him in a truman show-style mental hospital, he’s gonna love it and never give it a second thought. Or…maybe that’s what the WH has become at this point…
I heard they were thinking about turning the presidential daily brief into either cartoons or a fake news channel stream just to get him to pay attention… So yeah, Truman show Whitehouse sounds eerily plausible
I can’t even tell if you’re joking
Well yeah. The intention was for the attack to succeed.
Yeah why would you tell the enemy of your plans?
That seems to be the safer option.
Not like he pays attention during important international security meetings anyways. All they need to do is make the power point more than 3 slides long and more than 45 words.
I remember in Trump’s last presidency, rutxh 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
That’s a bit unfair. trump is the world’s worst enemy.
CMD Taco Krasnov can suck it.
Holy fucking hell the entitlement.
“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.
My hypothesis is that it was intentional because they thought it would make it look like they were badasses, instead of the absolute shed of toolboxes that they are.
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.
Narcissism
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.
He said quite possibly the cringiest string of words of all time
I dunno there’s quite some contenders in the running, like “Amen, and a-women.” 😂
But it’s up there!
This is a ridiculous headline.
If this was “Heads of UK, Germany, and France were informed ahead of Ukraine attack; Trump left in the dark” it’d be a different story.
As it stands, there’s no reason to think this is anything but clickbait. The real story is the military operation. Don’t mention him unless it’s actually relevant.
Thanks for the sanity check. I wouldn’t think Ukraine’s top brass would notify any world leaders of an impending attack, especially one that took so long to plan and with such high stakes. Give me one reason they would?!
Up until now the Ukrainian military conferred with the USA as to what targets to strike. The us provided a great deal of intelligence.
But this isn’t the first time Ukraine kept a military operation in secret.
This is an incredibly covert operation that has been in play since before 2025. If the headline was “Pentagon aware, President wasn’t” that would again be a different story. There are countless stories of the man being a walking national security risk - unless we have proof that they went around him, this is just diluting that conversation.
The story isn’t about the attack, it’s about how Trump thinks he’s entitled to all the information.
Can’t have that information leak to Putin.
What about trickling down to Putin?
Putin does the trickling down on trump
That’s the rumour, certainly.
