Internal dissent is fine, but to pontificate publicly about peace when the C-in-C is contemplating waging war is an insane overreach.

"...as we stand here today, closer to the brink of nuclear annihilation than ever before, political elite warmongers are carelessly fomenting fear and tensions between nuclear powers.”

She wasn't talking about Iranian or Israeli or Ukrainian or Russian warmongers. She was talking about other advisors to the President.

If she finds our policy indefensible, she should take the principled course that William Jennings Bryan did in 1917, when he resigned as Secretary of State when Woodrow Wilson dragged us into war.

It took four people (Rachael Bade, Amy Mackinnon, Felicia Schwartz and John Sakellariadis) to write the article. Why?

Israel and American intel may be different and Gabbard may have been pointing that out.

That said, at some point we were going to have to deal with Iran. It's a bad idea for the Mullahs to have nukes.

I think the media is trying to stir the pot. Nothing new.

Sorry- this is a long, overly written and poorly constructed narrative from the a@2holes at Politico- a RAG of a publication of completely owned derp state wannabees and hirelings.

There is NO division between Trump and Gabbard. The start of this crap was complete misquoting, done again in this posting, to which Gabbards reply re: March statement— was to say “it would help if the media would write what my statement actually was, instead of making up non existent sentences and positions. The President and I are on the same page.

FRiend, the CinC is NOT contemplating war— far from it. He is engineering policy and support for Israel’s needed actions. He is helping as a good ally. We are NOT- despite all the efforts of Bolton (the real warmonger) and that IDIOT Mike Pence to drag us into a theater war WHILE Trump is trying to negotiated the peace in the perpetual existing graft/grift war in Ukraine. This is the real threat to ALL of the trough eating useless dingleberrys who have profited for years off the Ukraine corrupt skim and money down a rat hole— making money off the skim with lots of mouths open (McConnell, Graham, and a host of Demonrat morons who continue to Zeep away and react to the grifted funds uncovered by DOGE, shut down and to be clawed back into general revenue by recission).

Honestly— William Jenning Bryan in 1917 bears no resemblance whatsoever to this situation. Israel is able to handle its own anti-Iran policies with the existing good support and zero involvement of US forces except aiding in the “eyes in the sky” and intel support. Absolutely silly comparison also as Trump is not, and never would be a Woodrow Wilson clown democrat. Never.

Yeah, strange that a cabinet level official is posting a 3 minute end-of-the-world video w/o running it past her boss first.

Reminds me of the DNC’s “Daisy Girl”/”Peace, Little Girl,” anti-Goldwater vote for Johnson ad/commercial:

““She shouldn’t be in that job,” Trump’s former national security adviser John Bolton, who had his own falling out with Trump, said Tuesday.”

Well that settles it. If Politico and Bolton oppose her, she must be bad. lol

It might be an accurate story, but if it’s from Politico (or any MSM yellow journalism sheet), I’d treat it as probable B.S.
Intended to foster dissent, and spread FUD in the ranks.

Don’t fall for it.

“I don’t care what she said,” Trump replied.

Shouldn’t have said that in front of the press. He says way to much in front of the press.

Gabbard’s declaration before Congress in March that Iran was not seeking to build a nuclear weapon.

I posted this three days ago:


And AG Bondi's FBI told her that she received ALL of the Epstein files.

It wouldn't surprise me to learn that Gabbard's intel agencies fed her similar stories in the first months of the Trump administration.


These statements both occurred in the first weeks of the Trump administration. We now know that the Biden holdovers in the FBI lied to Bondi about the extent of the Epstein files in the FBI's possession.

It wouldn't surprise me that Obama/Biden holdovers in the intelligence agencies did the same thing to Gabbard and gave her false information on Iran to protect the legacy of the Obama/Biden Iran deal. They gave Gabbard bad intel, and she repeated it in front of Congress, just like Bondi did on TV.

They were both trusting of their own organizations and got burned. At least Bondi went public and raided the FBI offices in New York City. I don't know what Gabbard is doing about it.

She has way more influence inside the administration talking to Trump directly. Hopefully she’s smart enough to know this. Happy warrior in public and warnings to Trump face to face. Tucker and the like have to realize there is an anti war contingency in the administration and they have very high positions. Trump isn’t going to war without hearing both sides of the equation. Tulsi can forcefully push him in private but he needs support from his administration, totally, in public.

When you squeeze a liberal over-stuffed goose like politico, you get either foie gras or crap.

Enjoy eating crap, reb.
