Fuck the traitor Trump. The Russians knew of the Raid before even the gang of eight.

Trump told Putin about Syria, not Pelosi or Schiff, because "Washington is a leaking machine"

The president also said that countries like Russia had been notified in advance of the raid but Democratic leaders in the Gang of Eight were reportedly not told even though it is customary. 

Trump suggested that House Intelligence Chairman Adam Schiff (D-CA) and House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) were not told because of potential leaks. 

“We have notified some and others are being notified now as I speak,” Trump told the press. “We were going to notify them last night but we decided not to do that because Washington leaks like I’ve never seen before. There is nothing — there is no country in the world that leaks like we do.” 

He continued: “And Washington is a leaking machine and I told my people, we will not notify them until the — our great people are out. Not just in, but out.” 

“The only people that knew were the few people I dealt with,” Trump said.
 

Under the "gang of eight" system, the executive branch of the United States discloses highly sensitive intelligence information to the following members of Congress:[6]

United States House Permanent Select Committee on Intelligence:

Adam Schiff (D-CA-28), Chair

Devin Nunes (R-CA-22), Ranking Member

United States Senate Select Committee on Intelligence:

Richard Burr (R-NC), Chair

Mark Warner (D-VA), Vice Chair

Leadership in the United States House of Representatives:

Nancy Pelosi (D-CA-12), Speaker of the House

Kevin McCarthy (R-CA-23), Minority Leader

Leadership in the United States Senate:

Mitch McConnell (R-KY), Majority Leader

Chuck Schumer (D-NY), Minority Leader

CIA’s general counsel “wrote a memo addressing when the administration had to alert congressional leaders under a statute governing covert actions. Given the circumstances, the lawyers decided that the administration would be legally justified in delaying notification until after the raid.”

Somehow the story missed the part about him telling Turkey and Russia because they were flying over their troops to get to this operation.

Selective ignorance.

It really is sad how far they go to continue the Russia collusion and orange man bad narrative.  

They told Russia and Turkey "we are coming, top secret mission, stay out of the way.  MAGA".
