Toxic RINO Senator Mitch McConnell on Wednesday voted ‘no’ on Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation vote.
The Senate voted 52-48 to confirm Tulsi Gabbard as the next Director of National Intelligence. McConnell was the lone RINO who voted against President Trump’s nominee.
Recall that McConnell was also one of the three Senators to vote against Pete Hegseth’s confirmation as Defense Secretary.
Shortly after the confirmation vote on Wednesday, McConnell went off on Tulsi Gabbard.
McConnell said Tulsi Gabbard’s record proves she is “unworthy of the highest public trust.”
Per Fox News’ Chad Pergram:
[The Senate’s power of advice and consent is not an option; it is an obligation, and one we cannot pretend to misunderstand. When a nominee’s record proves them unworthy of the highest public trust, and when their command of relevant policy falls short of the requirements of their office, the Senate should withhold its consent.
The Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) is a key participant in the process that informs every major national security decision the President makes. The ODNI wields significant authority over how the intelligence community allocates its resources, conducts its collection and analysis, and manages the classification and declassification of our nation’s most sensitive secrets. In my assessment, Tulsi Gabbard failed to demonstrate that she is prepared to assume this tremendous national trust.
The nation should not have to worry that the intelligence assessments the President receives are tainted by a Director of National Intelligence with a history of alarming lapses in judgment.

That’s one turtle that needs to be put in the highway during rush hour.
This one has a death wish. Falling next time maybe the kicker.
Upside down on a fence post in the desert.
Just hurry up and croak
Or on a fencepost somewhere...
CCP McConnell
You are about as Kommie Red as they come...
McConnell is an unworthy pig. He’s a damn RAT in disguise.
KY has a democrat governor who can appoint his replacement.
Turtle is just trying to avoid another “accident”.
Go die in a fire, Mitch.
Mitch is a taint
The government has been trouncing our rights in the name of “homeland security” since 9/11. Hopefully the new DNI can bring sanity back.
Did he do this while sitting down or while falling down????
“unworthy of the highest public trust.” We have his epitaph, order the stone
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Sure China Mitch, what time is she sworn in?
I had a weird dream last night of a box turtle crushed on the road.
Weird.
Mitch McConnell must be tried for treason and executed BEFORE HE CAN DIE OF NATURAL CAUSES! That man is a clear threat to our Republic.
