Trump getting ready to cut Poland loose

Senior officials have been soliciting guidance from national security agencies on how to improve relations with Russia, asking what Washington could offer Moscow and what Trump should seek from Russian President Vladimir Putin. Tillerson requested a briefing on moving the U.S. Embassy in Israel from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem, one of Trump's campaign promises.
According to one U.S. official, national security aides have sought information about Polish incursions in Belarus, an eyebrow-raising request because little evidence of such activities appears to exist. Poland is among the Eastern European nations worried about Trump's friendlier tone on Russia.

That would be a shame. Poland has been a steadfast ally and is one of the few non-pozzed countries in Europe.
They declared Jesus Christ the Polish king in perpetuity.

Zombie von Ribbentrop was a great hire

That's something that will need verification on big time. If Putin views any country making incursions closer to his allies or Russian territory, it'll put the US on a collision course With Russia.

This all has something to do with Trump Water folding. I can feel it. Don't believe what the media is telling you.

This is likely horse shite because Obama has been fricking over Poland for eight years already

I didn't say fake. I'm merely pointing out that this period of "anonymous sources" needs to end.
It is all unverifiable information.
I held the same stance during Obama's tenure.
There is no way to prove that this info isn't made up.

God how I hate posters like you. Stupid shite like this is why it is so hard to have a legitimate conversation about policy.
The article's sources are all anonymous, of course. This has been covered ad nauseum, so I won't point out the inherent flaws in putting stock in an industry driven by clicks and profits and not by facts. Don't give me the crap about the market holding them accountable. Lies on page 1 are fixed or clarified on page 50 3 days later, but the damage is done, just like this bit of idiocy.
What does the article say? It says someone asked about Polish incursions into Belarus. It does not say the request was because they believe it is happening. Someone asks to get informed about an issue, and you people extrapolate that to believe the request is looking for evidence to be used.
If I ask for information on Jim Rockford and his preference seducing young boys, is that saying I am looking for a way to use that against you? What if I simply don't believe it and want someone to try to prove it, or I want to warn you that this is going on? The request would look much the same from the outside, but YOU have just inferred the reason behind it.
I am not saying one way or the other about what Team Trump is thinking on this issue. What I AM saying is that the idiocy of these stories being used to make the assertion that you are is what is killing the ability to have a real conversation about any given issue. Stop the fricking lies and let's talk about real policy and strategy for a change.

Since when do y'all give two fricks about "evidence?"

Sure Poland wants to poke the Russian bear with incursions into Belarus.
That's smart.
