Is Tulsi Gabbard’s Nomination Is a National-Security Risk

The CIC is an idiot who thinks George Washington "seized the airports" and that we should have injected ourselves with disinfectant and shine a bright light on our bodies to cure Covid. This is a guy who said, “When you test, you have a case. When you test, you find something is wrong with people. If we didn’t do any testing, we would have very few cases.”
So when you say this utterly stupid moron has confidence in someone, it should make everyone's blood run cold.
The utterly stupid moron lost the 2024 election. Trump got vaccine shots in arms in 10-months when. "experts" said "4-years, if then", you're welcome.

The CIC won the election, he names his cabinet, and they are all better than Biden's clown car, who let in millions of unvetted illegals including 166,000 Chinese, 125,000 Russians, 425,000 criminals, hundreds of terrorists, including ISIS. Biden's term is a National Security disaster.
 
What was Kamala's and why did you vote for her is your answer.
Don't try to divert from your utter lack of facts.

And I didn't vote for Harris. I didn't vote at all.

Now tell me what Socialist Gabbard's intelligence background is.

I'll wait there.
 
If Trumps pick for any office pisses off the Democrats, the RINO’s, and the media.. there’s a good chance they’re a good pick

You almost just made the dumbest post of the week, but I'm afraid you have a lot of competition.

You are going to have to try harder.
 
Yes, we do. That's why we dislike national security risks in positions of power.

Hell, tRump won't even qualify for a security clearance without a waver.

That's another lie. Presidents get access to classified information because of the office they hold, not because they meet criteria in executive orders and administrative rules. The president technically does not even have a clearance. Unlike the vast majority of federal workers who access secret information, presidents are not made to sign paperwork on classified documents as part of their joining or leaving the government.
 
Nope. That's the waver.

Wrong again. A US president's security status comes with the office. So go back to the drawing board. You don't "got him" this time either.

The President’s Security Access​


Does the President Require Security Clearance?​


"As the nation’s highest-ranking official, the President doesn’t need a traditional security clearance. While ordinary governmental positions demand rigorous background checks and clearance processes, the President’s role inherently grants access to all classified information. Elected by the populace, the President gets automatically entrusted with national security data due to their critical responsibilities in defense and foreign policy."

What Security Clearance Does the President Have?
 
That is the waver. The office. This was discussed during the first tRump fiasco.

If that's the case then why did you say Trump "won't even qualify" for a security clearance without a waver?

The Vice President, members of Congress, Supreme Court Justices, and other constitutional officers don't require a security clearance either.

Because he wouldn't.

Have you been paying attention at all?

You're trying the walk back your insinuation that Trump is a national security risk.

NOpe. He has already proven himself to be absolutely the biggest security risk ever. Were he not elected he would never qualify for a security clearance. Last time he was in office agents and informants dropped like flies and he spilled ways and means to the russians right there in the oval office. He is probably the biggest national security risk in history.
 
If Tulsi Gabbard was blonde, you'd call her an airhead. This is the woman who visited with Bashar al Assad and came back to America to declare that he is not an enemy. And she must be Putins mistress.

Tulsi Gabbard’s Nomination Is a National-Security Risk

President-elect Donald Trump has nominated former Representative Tulsi Gabbard as the director of national intelligence. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence was created after 9/11 to remedy what American policy makers believed was a lack of coordination among the various national-intelligence agencies, and the DNI sits atop all of America’s intelligence services, including the CIA.

Gabbard is stunningly unqualified for almost any Cabinet post (as are some of Trump’s other picks), but especially for ODNI. She has no qualifications as an intelligence professional—literally none. (She is a reserve lieutenant colonel who previously served in the Hawaii Army National Guard, with assignments in medical, police, and civil-affairs-support positions. She has won some local elections and also represented Hawaii in Congress.) She has no significant experience directing or managing much of anything.

But leave aside for the moment that she is manifestly unprepared to run any kind of agency. Americans usually accept that presidents reward loyalists with jobs, and Trump has the right to stash Gabbard at some make-work office in the bureaucracy if he feels he owes her. It’s not a pretty tradition, but it’s not unprecedented, either.

To make Tulsi Gabbard the DNI, however, is not merely handing a bouquet to a political gadfly. Her appointment would be a threat to the security of the United States.

Gabbard ran for president as a Democrat in 2020, attempting to position herself as something like a peace candidate. But she’s no peacemaker: She’s been an apologist for both the Syrian dictator Bashar al-Assad and Russia’s Vladimir Putin. Her politics, which are otherwise incoherent, tend to be sympathetic to these two strongmen, painting America as the problem and the dictators as misunderstood. Hawaii voters have long been perplexed by the way she’s positioned herself politically. But Gabbard is a classic case of “horseshoe” politics: Her views can seem both extremely left and extremely right, which is probably why people such as Tucker Carlson—a conservative who has turned into … whatever pro-Russia right-wingers are called now—have taken a liking to the former Democrat (who was previously a Republican and is now again a member of the GOP).

In early 2017, while still a member of Congress, Gabbard met with Assad, saying that peace in Syria was only possible if the international community would have a conversation with him. “Let the Syrian people themselves determine their future, not the United States, not some foreign country,” Gabbard said, after chatting with a man who had stopped the Syrian people from determining their own future by using chemical weapons on them. Two years later, she added that Assad was “not the enemy of the United States, because Syria does not pose a direct threat to the United States,” and that her critics were merely “warmongers.”

Gabbard’s shilling for Assad is a mystery, but she’s even more dedicated to carrying Putin’s water. Tom Rogan, a conservative writer and hardly a liberal handwringer, summed up her record succinctly in the Washington Examiner today:



Having Biden's people in there has been a security risk.
