Tulsi Gabbard has been confirmed as the Director of National Intelligence. In a party-line 52-48 vote, with Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) crossing the aisle to vote with the Democrats, one of President Trump's more problematic nominees accomplished what was thought impossible only three weeks ago.

Now, the hard work starts. She is charged with leading a workforce that is hostile to Donald Trump and probably dismissive of her, and her first task is to make that a painful place to be. She has to clean up an intelligence community that has been relentlessly politicized and has long since stopped believing it exists to support the administration and now views itself as a policy-making establishment.

McConnell is pure establishment Republican garbage. His idea of heaven was GW Bush as POTUS and Cheney leading us into two decades of war.

I kept telling people that we should have gotten rid of Mitch when he was last up for reelection.

I could see he was a backstabbing piece of sh*t, and needed to go, even if we had to temporarily lose that seat to a Democrat.

Mad Maxine needs to go make an “unwanted sexual advance” at Mazie Hirono and maybe they’ll both shut up for a while. Go home and watch “Da View from Da Pigsty.”

Even Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins wouldn’t cross the aisle on this one. Now onto Patel and Kennedy. I really want Patel in the FBI and will just enjoy the hell out of RFK Jr. going bull in a china shop on the country’s health cartels.

"Even Lisa Murkowski and Susan Collins wouldn’t cross the aisle on this one."

Her life story is compelling.
Interesting fact: she is a devout Hindu yet her father is a conservative Catholic who led the fight in Hawaii against same-sex marriage.
Interesting family, to say the least.

McConnell might be tangled up in the huge USAID scandal that’s about to hit Congress and is doing whatever he can at this point (which isn’t much) to slow Trump down.

I HATE those 2.

3.

There are good republicans serving in congress...since we can’t change the name of the party it is easy enough to call them conservatives.

Republican hasn’t meant conservative in a long, long time.

I have come to dislike B..tch McMoron very much.

He is UNDOUBTEDLY tangled up in the huge USAID scandal that’s about to hit Congress.

In his defense, he did save the republic from Merrick Garland.

WOW.

All of the other Rs fell in line.

For whatever reason they are, I am very happy.

And nah, I don’t care the reason.

As long as they vote how Trumpt tells them to :)
