I know that you all don’t particularly care for her, but she sounds like she makes some sense once in a while...

...Gabbard’s comments came during an appearance on Fox News Primetime when host Brian Kilmeade asked her if she was “surprised they’re pushing forward with this extra surveillance on would-be domestic terror.”

“It’s so dangerous as you guys have been talking about, this is an issue that all Democrats, Republicans, independents, Libertarians should be extremely concerned about, especially because we don’t have to guess about where this goes or how this ends,” Gabbard said.

She continued: “When you have people like former CIA Director John Brennan openly talking about how he’s spoken with or heard from appointees and nominees in the Biden administration who are already starting to look across our country for these types of movements similar to the insurgencies they’ve seen overseas, that in his words, he says make up this unholy alliance of religious extremists, racists, bigots, he lists a few others and at the end, even libertarians.”

She said her concern lies in how officials will define the characteristics they are searching for in potential threats.

“What characteristics are we looking for as we are building this profile of a potential extremist, what are we talking about? Religious extremists, are we talking about Christians, evangelical Christians, what is a religious extremist? Is it somebody who is pro-life? Where do you take this?” Gabbard said.

She said the proposed legislation could create “a very dangerous undermining of our civil liberties, our freedoms in our Constitution, and a targeting of almost half of the country.”

“You start looking at obviously, have to be a white person, obviously likely male, libertarians, anyone who loves freedom, liberty, maybe has an American flag outside their house, or people who, you know, attended a Trump rally,” Gabbard said....

Didn’t Tulsi sue Google for blocking her during the primaries?

I’m no tulsi fan, but good for her to stand up to this.

This kind of legislative action is simply frightening. It is Orwellian. So because you believe the election was fraudulent you’d lose your job, or security clearance? Unbelievable.

Burn down your neighborhood, throw firebombs at law enforcement, no problem. Follow Trump, or believe that government is corrupt and that’s actually WORSE than the horrible actions of the demonic leftists...in their minds.

These people are evil. Plain and simple.

Believers, this is foreshadowing of a demonic future. Hang on. Build community. KNOW who are and are not your friends. They’re showing the level to which they’re trending. As in ITS GONNA GET WORSE! MUCH WORSE.

...and swatting might soon become American leftists favorite indoor sport. Like Mrs Kravits peeking through her curtains after calling it in. It’s coming.

CORRECTION…
TULSI GABBARD believes it is moral to murder 99.9% of the 1.6 million babies aborted in America each year.
