I didn’t get that sense. I think he was answering the question.


How is a state dept spokesperson supposed to provide proof of an intelligence report at a public news conference? A video of our person on the inside at the Kremlin? Copies of the classified Russian documents we accessed? I’m with the state dept guy on that. What is the reporter expecting to see? The State Dept was revealing intelligence about Russian intentions.

I get being skeptical. Intelligence can and frequently has turned out to be wrong, and the strategy can be questioned. But he wants proof like we’d expect of Alex Jones when he’s baselessly accusing grieving parents of murdered 8 yr olds of being crisis actors? You think that’s a valid analogy?
