In reply to the discussion: Zelenskyy Kept Trump In The Dark And Didn't Tell Him About Attack On Russian Bombers [View all]Kid Berwyn
(21,347 posts)72. Why
Donald J Trump represents the most successful spy operation of all time. And thanks to Just-us John Roberts redefining the meaning of "Insurrection" and the very words of the Constitution of the United States of America, an active Russian agent has been allowed to return to the Oval Office to again "serve" as the pee-residunce.

Normally, I'd say: "Think about that!" But, destroying truth is what tyrants do. It's why they hate a free press.
It's why trumpf is doing all he can to sue anyone who ever wrote anything bad about him. Now he has the DoJ doing his dirty work and handing the legal bill to the U.S. taxpayer.
The photo of Russian Foreign Minister Sergey Lavrov and dip above was taken by TASS, the official Russian news agency. The US media were not informed about the 2017 visit. We learned about it because the Unstable Moron himself spread the pic proudly on social media.
How many people do you know whove seen that picture or the one below, taken on an earlier date in the Oval Office? Again, very few.

I just fired the head of the FBI. He was crazy, a real nut job," Trump said, according to The Times. "I faced great pressure because of Russia. That's taken off.
"I'm not under investigation," he added.

And this is the man leading the "restructuring of American government" today winking at Putin at a diplomatic affair during his first madministration.

No wonder Putin, the Kremlin and the GRU and whatever the KGB is called these days call him "America's Gorbachev." Gorby sped up the dissolution of the Soviet Union. Now Putin returns the favor through Trump and his destruction of America's economy, hailed just before the 2024 election by The Economist as "The Envy of the World."

OP
TSF turned his back on Z and there's no reason why he should have to tell him his battle plans.

Zelensky could pass false information to Trump and see if filters to Moscow; and I don't mean Moscow Mitch.

Zelensky did not inform Biden prior to Ukraine's Kursk incursion last autumn

Yes, and I just heard (on a youtube video by Greg Terry) that Axios withdrew its earlier reporting.

Interestingly, the first version of the article specifically reported that the US *was* notified:

Just like the Obama Administration did not tell Pakistan before they went after bin Laden.
