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.
Moron in charge of intelligence?
Excuse me, it’s “Russian Puppet Moron in charge of intelligence”
I agree with McConnell? Yuck.
I never agreed with him, but he’s at least an American. Maybe not the same ideals, but it’s clear he has some standards.
Always thought John McCain would be the last person I said that about.
Wild watching the dumbest reactionaries on the internet get everything they ever wanted.
You’d think after Brexit, after the first Trump term, they’d have re-evaluated their pre-existing beliefs.
It’s like the worse their outcomes are the more certain that they are correct. It’s almost a coping mechanism.
