Tulsi wasn't just the right choice; she was the perfect choice.

Tulsi Gabbard has been insulted over and over again by democrats and even some Republicans. She has been called a "Russian asset" (does that sounds familiar?). After Trump nominated her for DNI Abilgail Spanberger said about Gabbard "Not only is she ill-prepared and unqualified, but she traffics in conspiracy theories and cozies up to dictators like Bashar-al Assad and Vladimir Putin."

For a long time now Gabbard has been warning everyone about Syria. The ignorati have been for some time wailing about the evil of Bashar Assad. USA Today celebrated his removal.

WASHINGTON – From the White House, President Joe Biden called the collapse of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s brutal regime “a moment of historic opportunity” for the country’s long-suffering people.

What he didn’t say: It also could be good news for the United States.

Assad’s fall not only ends his family’s bloody half-century reign, but it also weakens Russia and Iran’s standing in the Middle East, provides the U.S. with another possible partner in its campaign to contain the Islamic State, and opens the door for the U.S. to finally secure the release of missing journalist Austin Tice, who was captured more than a decade ago in Syria.

I am not arguing that he was a wonderful guy, but this is a classic lesson in "the devil you don't know." Some of us have seen this movie before- in Iran in 1979.

Assad is gone from power, and into the void has stepped even worse monsters. Gabbard said that Assad, as bad as he might have been, was protecting Christians in Syria. She was right. Islamists, the freedom fighter darlings of the left in Syria are massacring Christians as they are wont to do, all in the name of Allah. This from Oli of London on X.

I think the reason Trump put her on the team was for her to be the consiglieri

Spanberger voted with Trump 6.9% of the time when she was in Congress, I think that pretty much says it all.

She’s a Nothingberger.

“Make her the atty. general.”

Tulsi isn’t an attorney. Even though you don’t have to be an attorney for SCOTUS (go figure!), you do for AG.

(Where the hell did Barbie go, anyway? She probably has coffee with Jeff Sessions every morning, and then lunch with Jeb!, her former boss.)

Once someone is confirmed to a cabinet post, they can be shifted to lead another cabinet without Senate approval.

It would be a miracle. I’m not sure Virginia will do that this year. Maybe if the cuts are done by then especially veterans, it could happen.

There are major RIFs (Reductions in Force required by a President Trump Executive Order) in every federal department scheduled later this year.

Final plans will be completed this month.

We could be talking hundreds of thousands of federal employees fired—with many fleeing northern Virginia by November.

That could radically change the electoral situation in Virginia.

Spanberger is (yet) another CIA confection in electoral politics.

We got Tulsi, and the dems got the Cheneys. We definitely got the better of that trade.
