Days Of Shifting Explanations For The Deadly Strike On Soleimani | Deadline | MSNBC

  1. The State Department has stated that it received no information or warnings about an imminent threat to any of it’s embassies.
    Let’s be clear, If the State Department is saying that they received no warnings or information about an imminent threat, that means there was definitely no imminent threat at all. And anyone who has ever served overseas at a US Embassy knows this. Because if there was an imminent threat as Trump and his sycophants are claiming, but yet they failed to alert the State Department and our embassies, then that is a serious problem.

    1. Yes tell Iran that Trump wants to take out a satanist dictator of Iran so he can escape .
      There is so many deep state people in the USA government that need to be fired!

    2. He chose to remove the threat in a preemptive attack.At which point only the drone pilot and his commanders ‘needed to know’ anything.It’s not rocket science.

  2. Story changing is very frequent in Trump’s administration. There’s too much backtracking or double talk in explaining Soleimani’s killing, foreign policies, wall building, etc. America has got to wake up!

    1. Trump is a blatantly compulsive liar. Where he goes wrong, is constantly changing stories. That’s the biggest tell of a compulsive liar. The original lie isn’t enough, they have to keep elaborating and building upon their lies.

  3. This “president” has no credibility because lies are lies. Don’t call them falsehoods, exaggerations and misstatements.

    1. @rkbtex When are you going to understand that the job of MSNBC is to make Trump look as bad as possible while covering up the Democratic party’s complicity in his crimes and war crimes? That its job is to set us at each other’s throats without endangering the donors who own both parties and the politicians those donors own?

    1. Bolton is another 2nd hand witness. He based his opinion about the Ukraine “drug deal,” on the intell he received from Fiona Hill. She relayed information from Sondland to Bolton.

    1. How ignorant do you have to be not to understand that was the case his first full day in office, when at the CIA’s Wall he promised war crimes were now official U.S. foreign policy?

    2. As socialist coward your opinion is literally worth nothing. It is not your fault as all dumocrats suffer from under developed intelligence

    1. Listen to how MSNBC here is covering up as best it can for the foreign policy establishment’s war crimes, excusing its complicity, while pointing only to Trump as the guilty party.

    1. @Ralf Häggström did you feel the same way when Obama conducted military strikes in Irag and Syria against terrorist groups

  4. The sad thing about all of this is that even though we think Soleimani was a bad man and deserved to be taken out, to a lot of people in his homeland he was a hero. By the same token, a lot of people over there think Trump is a bad man and needs to be taken out. As has been said “an eye for an eye leaves the world blind”.

      Hahahahahaha … no they are not !!
      LIAR .. he killed protesters .. hundreds just recently .. GFYS

      FREE the IRAN people 🤩🤩🤩

  5. Give me a break. More than 15,000 LIES documented while he is President and 3,500 LAWSUITS BEFORE he was appointed President and you are still wondering if we can trust the Conman and Fraud?!?

  6. Donald Trump and the Trump administration still trying to get their stories straight. They lie so often that you’d think they’d be better at it.

    1. blueserman1 – don’t reply to Alan grigo- he’s probably 12 years old….. hint…. anyone who puts an “ok” at the end of a sentence CANNOT be a reasonable or intelligent adult 👎

  7. “Imminent attack” … except you can’t specify when or where, or how you knew about it. Sounds legit.

  8. WHO: Trump
    WHAT: killed Soleimaini
    WHEN: after trump got impeached
    WHERE: target area: Iraq
    WHY: to distract from his impeachment & to win next election 🤨🖕😠

    1. @aussie jim TY U FOR CORRECTING ME 😃👍👏🥂 I corrected my comment too, it’s always good to learn truthful facts!

  9. Thump has operated the same way his entire adult life. He will use ANYTHING to distract from his criminality. Now, he can use ASSASINATION and WAR. Easy Peasy…

  10. Once again, Donald Dumpsterfire is lying. Otherwise, his people would have named the four embassies by now.
