Summary
The Senate confirmed Tulsi Gabbard as director of national intelligence in a 52-48 vote, with only Sen. Mitch McConnell breaking GOP ranks to oppose her.
Critics, including Democrats and some Republicans, raised concerns over her past meeting with Syria’s Assad, sympathetic comments on Russia, and prior support for Edward Snowden.
Gabbard reversed her stance on key intelligence policies during her confirmation.
And there goes the intelligence community.
Gabbard is going to be compartmentalized. They’re never going to let her near anything that matters.
I wish you were right.
They have 19 year olds named big balls gaining access to all our information. You think she is going to have problems accessing information. Ha ha ha.
Any basis whatsoever to your comment?
She is literally a Russian asset, and now she’s going to be our top intel official. We’re fucked.
This is truly the “move fast and break things” administration.
”FIRST THINGS FIRST! ROUND UP ALL OF THE DALMATIONS!!!”, shrieked Gabbard.
This makes me sad.
Hold onto your chairs folks. It’s going to be kinda bumpy from now on. And not in a good way.
Welcome, American Oblast!
Shouldn’t “intelligence” be in quotes for her position?
Ha ha ha this is ridiculous. What complete fools.
Yeah okay this one seems kinda bad
“Intelligence”
What’s with the skunk haircut? This chick is such a clown - listen to her on Bill Maher
Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Dog killer.
No you’re thinking of the Secretary of Homeland Security. I hope.
On second thought, it’s a moot point.
MI5, MI6 *shrug*
Sadly a moot point indeed.
