It sounds like Tulsi would likely not be a patsy for the deep state. If she is confirmed then time will tell.

I’ve heard it said that diplomacy is the art of saying “nice doggie,” while you look for a big rock.

Diplomacy??

American War Hawks: What’s that?

The “D word” gives me the creeps.

Trump’s E.O.’s on “weaponization of government” ALL say “the Director of National Intelligence shall....”

And Trump did this knowing that Gabbard was his pick. So he trusts her to carry out the job.

So the DC deep-state swamp and all its RINO and Woke cronies are focusing very closely on Gabbard. This is a key battle for them in their attempt to neuter Trump, and hide their crimes.

This vote is a BIG DEAL.

Not to mention, Assad the younger was never even close to the monster DC made him out to be. He was probably the most liberal leader of any Arab nation. Christians, Alawites, Kurds, Sunni and Shiite were all living in Syria. There were even two old small Synagogues in Damascus.
A female could get an education, marry or divorce who they wanted, have a job, drive a car, or dance to music, in a swimsuit, on Latakia beach, and drink wine made in Syria.
There were opposition parties.

He held a widely diverse religious populace in check.
Now the ISIS wahabbists we created run the place.

There was never anything wrong with talking to him. The shameful part was DC supporting Al Qeida and ISIS in Syria, and the straight up lies about gas attacks and our attacks on the Syrian military as they were fighting our islamist army.

The un-American authoritarian government in DC actually placed her on the terrorist watchlist. That is all anyone needs to know.

They acted like she might try to take over an airliner and put sky marshals on her plane to presumably shoot her if she tried.

She is a great pick.

As a Rising Political Star, Gabbard Paid to Mask Her Sect’s Ties to Alleged Scheme
Years before Tulsi Gabbard became Trump’s pick to coordinate U.S. spy agencies, she tried to evade unwanted scrutiny

There's no money in healthy people and
There is no money in diplomacy

So it looks like those two nominees don't have what it takes.

Nobody gets nominated for this role without a significant intel background. She wasn’t just freelancing.

Gabbard helped herself today with a strong appearance

I’ll predict she gets confirmed with a modicum of Democrat votes.
