The media is trying to drive a wedge between Trump and his Cabinet picks
Don’t fall for it.
A. I’ve seen and heard the entire Gabbard clip. I don’t need Politico or the National Review to interpret it for me.
B. “FRiend, the CinC is NOT contemplating war— far from it.”
That’s simply not supported by the facts, by which I mean President Trump’s public comments and Truth Social posts.
“I don’t care what she [Gabbard] said. I think they [the Iranians] were very close to having a weapon.”
So, for the very greatest strategic issue facing us today, the one where the President relies on his DNI, he is trashing the one thing she’s responsible for.
He said there was no intention to kill Iran’s leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei “for now.” Who talks of possibly eliminating another country’s chief of state if not considering war?
In discussing the current state of hostilities, he said this: “We now have complete and total control of the skies over Iran. Iran had good sky trackers and other defensive equipment, and plenty of it, but it doesn’t compare to American made, conceived, and manufactured ‘stuff.’ Nobody does it better than the good ol’ USA.”
He said WE have control of the skies, not Israel. Why would someone NOT considering war speaking of controlling the skies of a country we are NOT at war with or even weighing the possibility of war?
POLITICO has said it’s TRUE, so need we say anything more???

“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.
Listen to Gabbard’s 3 minute clip. Then listen to the President. Then tell me that their outlooks are consistent.
Well said!
He does that all the time, but he’s the boss, she isn’t. It was not her place to be espousing flower power while he is instructing the citizens of Teheran to get the hell out.
OK— this is troll like behaviour. You have absolutely NO, zero basis, and especially not this rambling concoction of bullcrap suppositions and innuendo statements from the likes of Bolton (who Trump actively despises for his deception, lying and manipulation of his actual ORDERS) for trying to complete the fabrication narrative that “she is finished”.
Amateurish in the extreme- no DNI would ever “enumerate” the factual differences between US and other country’s intel. In point of fact she hasn’t share any differences and wouldn’t. You seem to be ignoring that, and diving into this poorly crafted rambling bunch of gibberish and speculation from “three individuals” whom Politico says .. “know” what Trump thinks— What absolute crapola. Maybe a comic book would be more elucidating at the proper level of reading for understanding.
What you don’t get is that “I don’t care what she said” means exactly that on this nuclear acquisition subject— and NOTHING else. It cannot be construed or conflated with ALL the other claptrap and gossipy drool that is this “article” by nobodies at Politico.
So eager to screw up Trump’s team— grasping at dimwit rag of demonrat Robby Mooks trying to insert division. By doing so, is to work for the enemies, the losers against Trump, who assume he is some sort of dictator, when he works with disparate and widely separated views within his team. The article assumes too much and states all of it as facts— which are not there.
It’s NOT the clip. You don’t get that, clearly. The March testimony to Congress is in complete agreement with Trump, followed by decisive actions to support his decisions. The writers of this novelette conflate the two— and they are two different things as topics. Trump does not disagree with the opinions against nuclear war. Hardly, it’s been the subject matter of his most recent Putin calls.
Trump is constantly— deceptive toward enemies within and outside the country. That is one of his main tactics— keep media morons guessing, and keep them off balance.
“We” means the alliance and partnership with the one true ally we have in the ME. Without our overwhelming ability (as in always above— see: Space Force) the more meticulous aspects of the Israel operations would be nearly impossible to conduct as we will see towards the end of this week. This cooperation is the major difference from the morons controlling Joey Bags Biden and his grifters, and neo con jackasses in Congress from people who have the conviction of their words. Believable, because they don’t know for certain.
The President no longer relies on the stupid system of WH NSC— he’s broken that up. This is reflected in the idiotic speculation of Politico’s hacks, which some here apparently think is somehow factual. It has never been.
“For now”— is a negotiating tactic, assuming that in the near future Khamenei will abscond out of Iran, because either way we and Israel know exactly where he is. A very old tactic— like sending sat photos of the principal residence—wonder why? Keep em guessing.
Why wouldn’t the same sort of assumptions be made of the military movements under Joe Biden, like the 2 carrier groups? Everyone knew they were there to monitor and prevent Israeli operational actions. Because it was Biden’s incompetents and lackeys no one saw a credible threat- while hindering the Israelis every move. Credible threat does not mean war— rather it conveys the potential ease of conducting war, because it is credible. The leadership difference is tectonic in shift. Check out the Tehran evacuation of 10 million on the word of a credible threat, that might not even make war a necessity.
At the time, Trump was all about negotiation. He changed his mind afterward. How do we know, that at the time, she wasn’t supporting his stance?
But if you want to get get all hot and bothered about it and type in all caps, that’s fine by me.
[He said WE have control of the skies, not Israel. Why would someone NOT considering war speaking of controlling the skies of a country we are NOT at war with or even weighing the possibility of war?]
This.

Fake news
I posted this three days ago:
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.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.
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.

This our LAST chance to rid ourselves of the Islamic Republic of Iran and help return it to the world of moderate and peaceful nations.
They declared war on the US in 1979 and have been heel-bent on erasing us and our allies since then.
The blood of many Americans is on their hands and this is the time to knock them out of the ballpark so the Iranian people and ALL THE PEOPLE of the world will not feel threatened.
