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.
Yeah, its pretty typical not to give war plans to an enemy state.
Yeah why would you tell the enemy of your plans?
That’s why it worked.
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.
Nor should he ever be. Putins puppydog is not on the n2k lists. He just doesn’t have the cards
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.
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
It seems Donald is beginning to learn that he can’t sustainably approach foreign policy and diplomacy as if he’s ordering up a Big Mac.
He’s not learning squat
I think the facts demonstrate otherwise. It’s more accurate to say he’s not learning much, and I think that someone like Donald, who has to be the center of international attention, is going to notice when the other national players start leaving him out of the loop.
That Donald reacted to the bond markets panicking in the face of his tariffs demonstrates that someone inside that Administration has the ability to get him to see reason. It’s a bummer that they don’t bend his ear more often.
Like other successful fascists, his skill is having his finger on the pulse of his supportive factions. The capitalists are less to him important than the rabid foot soldiers, but he still doesn’t want them to see him as weak.
Holy fucking hell the entitlement.
CMD Taco Krasnov can suck it.
I just came to up vote everyone. Or I up voted everyone and then I cam…anyway, yeah this is great! Let’s hope. Never lose hope. I hope for a quick end to this stupid war and also the one in Gaza… But not that quick… Not nuclear quick. Just you know, like pace deal quick… Capture all the nazis and give them a proper sea burial quick type of quick. How about the other planes this week?
Why would you give your enemy plans?
U mean special operation right
Trump never attends his breefings, so he’s never informed.
