  • Reed Rebukes Trump White House for Undercutting U.S. Intelligence & Contemplating a Terrible Deal to Sell Out U.S. Citizens

    WASHINGTON, DC -- Today, after the White House disputed that President Trump said
    Russia is no longer targeting the U.S. but confirmed that he
    is open to Russia interrogating U.S. citizens,
    U.S. Senator Jack Reed (D-RI), the Ranking Member of the Armed Services
    Committee and an ex officio member of the Senate Select Committee on
    Intelligence, issued the following statement:



     



    “The American people are right to be
    suspicious when they see President Trump attack
    the news media but refuse to challenge Putin.  He claims
    without evidence to be tough on Russia, but repeatedly proves he’s soft on
    Putin. 



     



    “People can watch the video and make up their
    own minds.  But this has echoes of President Trump denying he criticized
    Theresa May, only to be contradicted by the Sun releasing a tape of him
    criticizing her.



     



    “President Trump is weak on
    Putin, blames America, and is squandering his rapidly
    diminishing credibility.  He has engaged in a pattern of undercutting and
    denying our Intelligence Community, which helps Putin and damages our national
    security. 



     



    “President Trump called Putin’s request to let
    Russian authorities question the former U.S. ambassador to Moscow “an
    incredible offer.”  And the fact that this White House is still
    contemplating allowing Russian agents to interrogate U.S. citizens and
    diplomats is a disgrace. 



     



    “I urge the White House and others in the
    Administration to denounce Putin’s proposal and make it resoundingly clear that
    the United States does not and will not sell out our citizens to Vladimir
    Putin’s regime. 



     



    “President Trump must stop denying and
    undercutting U.S. intelligence and isolating us from our allies.  His
    actions only reduce our standing in the world.  Putin has spent his career
    trying to achieve those objectives.  Why is President Trump doing it for
    him?  The American people deserve answers and the only way to get them is
    for President Trump to finally talk to the Special Counsel.”
