Former National Security Adviser Susan Rice blasted President Trumps claims that he was never briefed about reports that Russian intelligence operatives offer bounties to Taliban-linked militants in Afghanistan for the killing of U.S. troops.
Rice, who is believed to be on the shortlist as a possible running mate for presumptive Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, expressed incredulity that Trump said he was never brief on the Russian bounties and criticized the president for allegedly not reading the daily intelligence briefings he is given.
I don't buy this story that he was never briefed, Rice said on NBCs Meet The Press. I believe that over a year ago, when the information first came to light in 2019, that my successor, John Bolton, would have walked straight into the Oval Office, as I would have, and informed the president of this intelligence.
Rice added: We have credible information that suggests that the Russians and maybe Putin himself are trying to kill American service members, and the president calls it a hoax."
