EMBARRASSING: CNN reporter BUSTS House Dems lying about Trump, NATO and withdrawal from the INF treaty with Russia

Earlier this morning, the United States formally withdrew from the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces Treaty (INF) arms control treaty with Russia…

JUST IN: Sec. of State Mike Pompeo announces the U.S. withdrawal from the INF Treaty: "Russia has jeopardized the United States' security interests, and we can no longer be restricted by the treaty while Russia shamelessly violates it." https://t.co/DiAD0MLaC4 pic.twitter.com/FITEXyHyR8

…And House Dems are PISSSED, accusing the Trump administration of “needlessly ignoring the concerns of our allies and partners on an issue that should unify NATO, not divide it”:

The Trump administration is needlessly ignoring the concerns of our allies and partners on an issue that should unify NATO, not divide it.

Err…

As CNN’s Ryan Browne points out, literally every NATO member is behind the U.S. on the move:

Actually all 28 non-US NATO members said they backed the decision on INF https://t.co/X8qYDHbjM8

But don’t take our word for it. Here’s Jens Stoltenberg:

Russia is in material breach of the #INFTreaty & must use next 6 months to return to full & verifiable compliance or bear sole responsibility for its demise. #NATO fully supports the US suspension & notification of withdrawal from the Treaty: https://t.co/VOhUB0HoAd pic.twitter.com/28Rwicqr8o

That would be NATO Secretary General Jens Stoltenberg:

The NATO Secretary General agrees with the Trump Administration’s decision. https://t.co/BYijeGIZGN
