'It's a sign of the increasing mistrust and partisan rancor in Washington. This used to be a non-partisan thing.' KenDilanianNBC breaks down why Pres. Trump didn't brief Congressional Dems about the operation that killed ISIS leader Baghdadi.
President Trump did not inform the "Gang of Eight" —which includes Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Sen. Chuck Schumer, and Rep. Adam Schiff — of the U.S. raid which killed Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Instead, Trump only informed two members, Republican Senators Richard Burr and Lindsey Graham. NBC's Ken Dilanian explains that the law requires that the "Gang of Eight" be fully informed of anticipated intelligence activity, but that there is a loophole that Pres. Trump used to avoid disclosing information.
