(Worthy News) – President Trump said Sunday morning that he did not tell House Speaker Nancy Pelosi about the U.S. military raid in Syria that resulted in the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi because he was worried about leaks that could have compromised the mission.
Vice President Mike Pence said this was not an indication of a lack of trust.
When asked if he notified Pelosi beforehand, Trump said he did not because he did not want any members of the U.S. forces to die. [ Source: Fox News (Read More…) ]
