Trump was not informed of a recent Ukrainian attack on Russia, The Hill’s sister network NewsNation confirmed Sunday.

Plus; why even say it? The assumption is you’re clean on opsec until you know you aren’t. You still don’t say anything more than absolutely necessary where it might get picked up. It’s like saying “we’re still breathing oxygen”. When that changes, you’ll know, because all hell breaks loose.
