THIS WOMAN. She doesn’t know how to speak the truth. She refuses to speak the truth. And innocent men are paying the price. We all know what that prison in El Salvador looks like. We already have the example of Kilmar Abrego Garcia. The insanity continues. The *stupidity* continues. Dadgum, I am, once again, looking at an article about Tulsi where she is dodging answering a question. And dadgum, am I, once again, tired of loyalists instead of people who know how to do their damn JOB. See my head explode. Lots of quotes today.
From Wonkette: “Tulsi Gabbard, the turnip-brained Gidget clone ironically serving as America’s Director of National Intelligence, has a problem. Her boss, Donald Trump, needs a legal justification for rounding up undocumented Venezuelan immigrants and sending them to an El Salvadoran gulag so that America can inch closer towards being the white nation he and the neo-Confederates in his administration want it to be. One solution the Trump team hit on is to claim that many Venezuelans are members of the criminal gang Tren de Aragua, declare that the gang is “invading” America, and then invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 to justify loading as many shackled, brown-skinned men as they can fit onto planes and flying them out of the country.”
Gee, boys and girls, doesn’t that not make sense? Gee, isn’t it a bunch of hooey? It’s a good plan if you’re not deterred by lying, that is. We all know that isn’t a problem with the tRump presidency, right? How could I *say* such a thing?! Very easily, as it turns out. Ha. And here’s why: But you can’t just say a group is “invading” the country because lots of its members have migrated here through both legal and illegal means. But if you claim that TdA has created a national security emergency because it is secretly working with the Venezuelan government to destabilize America by adding to the burden of angry white people who hate having to press 1 for English, then you can designate the gang as a foreign terrorist organization, and voila! No due process, no court hearings, no legal rights. It’s just instant imprisonment in a foreign labor camp for the alleged invasion force.” *BOOM*. And there we go!
But wait, there’s more! “The problem for Gabbard is that 17 of America’s 18 intelligence agencies, which she oversees, have concluded that TdA is not being directed by the Venezuelan government. That kills the entire Trump administration’s rationale for its actions.” So we aren’t really getting invaded by Tren De Aragua. Tulsi and Agent Orange are pretending we are. There’s no evidence to prove it. The solution? “Claim that all the intelligence agencies are liars who have been infiltrated by “deep state” agents determined to sabotage Trump’s presidency and undermine democracy. Then, unilaterally overrule the agencies’ conclusions so Trump won’t get mad at you.” Really? So, to me, that says no proof. But Tulsi overrode the information given to her and told tRump that he can do that. So, he has! Yet another loyalist has told him what he wants to hear, instead of the truth.
To close: “Meanwhile, a Venezuela expert at a think tank called the idea that Venezuela’s government is sending TdA to “infiltrate” the United States “ludicrous.” We’re trying to imagine how the experts in the nation’s intelligence community must feel to have their work product ignored and even publicly diminished by the Russian asset that oversees your agencies. We’re guessing it sucks. But this is what you get when you prioritize truth and America’s national interests over loyalty to Donald Trump. Luckily, Tulsi Gabbard is there to make sure all the spies get with the program, and send them to prison when they don’t.” Talk about ridiculous.
So she ignores the evidence and dodges around the question of how she found out. She ignores the truth in favor of pleasing El Presidente Imbécil. She demeans the agencies she is in charge of. It makes me wonder why her agencies bother with giving her the truth. This is just … sad.
*****And now, please read a very special request from our awesome boss******
Zoomers, we feel guilty asking for cash, but if you can spare a small amount, it will keep us trekking through cyberspace. Many hands make light work, many small contributions add up to enough. And most of all, we thank you for coming here to read. Ursula
🤨 Sad?! Well, yah, I get it. Sad is all there is left to say when we run out of words to describe our deep anger and despair at the deepening piles of bullshit our government has become.🤬
There’s a follow-up bullshit on this story that I really love. Tulsi is looking for THE DEEPSTATE LEAKERS who made sure this story got into the Washington Post originally. How dare some damned truth-lovers tell the world that Tulsi’s taste for the flavor of Trump’s ass is greater than her other of office!! Gabbard has even asked AG Bizarro Bondi to use her upside-down understanding of law to bring her DOJ goons over to National Security agencies to sniff out the leakers!*
🤣 Come on now, Tulsi! If you want to be the female Hegseth 🤮, you don’t need to find the leakers. Just decide who you are willing to name, declare them the leak, and bounce them out on their butt! Why waste time searching and collecting evidence? This is a fascist government…just kick anybody you want to!! 🤗🤗

I was wondering if/when something like this would happen. Well, now it has. And some poor suckers are going to be taken down when they have nothing to do with it. Too bad we don’t have someone leading who is as honorable as the people who work for her.
