Lewzer only has so many other lewzers to pick from if undying fealty to him is the only requirement. Boebert might not make the cut but the rest of them will.

She's not much at handling her own personal intelligence, such as it is.

The intel agencies need to burn everything they don't want the russians to know.

13- unfortunately it doesn't work that way anymore.

Even if you did, the people have spoken and folks like you and sentinel crying over the electorate can go play in the highway. Your opinions are schitte.

I highly doubt she would be able to pass a SSBI to get cleared and read in

That's a "deep state" thing. They won't be doing that anymore.

The lady doth protest too much.

"I highly doubt she would be able to pass a SSBI to get cleared and read in"

Doesn't matter. The President can grant security clearance to whomever he or she wants.

Trump loads up on an anti-interventionism cabinet, after Dems just celebrated a Harris endorsement from Darth Cheney himself.

What ------- reality is this?

Trump's pick for top intel job has been accused of 'traitorous' parroting of Russian propaganda

www.nbcnews.com

That tracks.

#21 | Posted by reinheitsgebot at 2024-11-14 08:15 AM

and the person going the most berserk over this... John Bolton. That John Bolton.

Everybody that forced us into the Iraq invasion hates Gabbard.

The irony, it's too much.

Russian State TV Panel Call Tulsi Gabbard 'Our Girlfriend'

The orcs must be ecstatic.

The Senate doesn't need to approve of Tulsi, because Putin already has.

As the senior classification authority on anything except DOE-related programs, the president is fully within his power to release any sensitive information. Even the most sensitive. The ODNI sits right below the president. It is unlikely and ODNI would share any info that was not approved by the president.
