"There is something wrong with Gabbard. The pull of conspiracism"particularly anti-American conspiracism"seems to be her overriding mental frame."

Republican Cultist Senators worship Trump and fear Herr Musk... who now knows everything about them.

Once Sec Hegseth was confirmed, I came to the opinion that the GOP Senators are afraid to disagree with the apparent Musk/Trump co-Presidency.

#2 | Posted by LampLighter at 2025-02-12 12:36 PM

Gabbard seemed like the only reasonable choice once I heard Putin was unavailable to take the role.

Didn't Tulsi intern for Lavrov?

Making predictions of doom is easy given this sort of sh--

Wars and mass terror attacks. Starting as early as tomorrow, if Donald is to be trusted.

Is Tulsi headed to Moscow so she can spend Valentine's Day with Assad?

Thank you Zed but that's what the last administration created that this administration is cleaning up.

Tulski is a Hare Krishna cult member, owned by Putin.

Thanks MAGA! We can't get enough of cultists owned by Putin.

#9 | Posted by chuffy at 2025-02-12 01:21 PM

This may be the very worst appointment of all. If they didn't already have to info, she will pass all of our nations sensitive intel to the Russians.

#10 | Posted by Whatsleft at 2025-02-12 01:22 PM

That should end the US for good, or at least until next weeks outrage.

I am sure of it!

And we don't even need proof any more, we can just claim it to be true. Because who cares about the truth when we have literally NAZIs in office.

Oh yes, Russia, Russia, Russia. Let me guess, Putin has a pee tape of her? She wants to build a hotel in Moscow? Which is it.
I love this sight because with people like Corky, JED and Chuffy it saves me from having to watch the View.

Chuffy's hitting on all cyclinders.

Trump wants us to bow to him, but we want him in jail!, which side are you on MAGAts?

#15 | Posted by oneironaut at 2025-02-12 01:30 PM

We are the laughingstock of the world, and Putin will drink a huge amount of champagne tonight, as his sleeper agents are all installed in the White House.

GOP Senators, how much have you been paid or threatened to vote for this outrageously unqualified Cabinet?

#16 | Posted by e1g1 at 2025-02-12 01:31 PM

Enjoy the famine and disease, you MAGA idiots. Good luck with President Musk and his demented orange sidekick.

#17 | Posted by chuffy at 2025-02-12 01:32 PM

#15 Chuffy still believes that Adam Schiff has the evidence of collusion and that Elizabeth Warren is 100% Cherokee.

Unqualified because she didn't steal luggage at the airport?

It's understood that you don't have a clue, FISHPAW, you don't need to troll for an explanation from us. You watch The View? That explains a lot.

Which host in outer space are you watching moonbat? Since you don't seem to know it there is a war in Ukraine and another in the Middle East right now.

Two wars that Donald said that he'd end four weeks ago.

Guess he was lying. What's your take?

I've known you long enough to know when you're being defensive.

You're going to have to do much better than this to even get through the next six months.

#26 | Posted by Zed at 2025-02-12 01:56 PM

Hey, hey, hey, Zed! Hold on a second...we all know that FDT's plan for Ukraine was to just cede it to Russia. Something Putin DEFINITELY did NOT want. He solved that problem with Hegseth today.

#27 | Posted by chuffy at 2025-02-12 01:59 PM

Great. Another DEI hire for the Gump administration.

#28 | Posted by anton at 2025-02-12 02:01 PM

Hey FISHPAW, tell us what Tulski's qualifications are for DNI. Explain to us why she's the best person to take this role. What does she bring to the table that makes her special?

Seriously. Since we don't know how awesome she is, maybe you can enlighten us.

#29 | Posted by chuffy at 2025-02-12 02:14 PM

"Since you don't seem to know it there is a war in Ukraine and another in the Middle East right now."

And which side is Tulsi Gabbard on for either one? It's OK that you don't know because no Republican Senator does either!

#30 | Posted by danni at 2025-02-12 02:26 PM

The only reason she's a traitor to you is because she refused to get in the DNC klown kar and ride with the morons.

LMAO! Yeah, that's what it was... HAHA! They "overcame" their "initial skepticism"! My sides hurt from laughing!

Seriously? LOL! I got tears from laughing!
The "Gump" admin wouldn't have anything if it wasn't for their massive hypocrisy and complete lack of morals.

#33 | Posted by YAV at 2025-02-12 02:34 PM

The only reason she's a traitor...

That's the only reason? I have 5 reasons she's a traitor right off the top of my head. Let me guess. You've loved her for YEARS and thought she was an AWESOME patriot! Right?

Naw. Didn't think so. When did you figure out what to think about her? After you were told what to believe and swallowed your cognitive dissonance?

Your "tell" is called "projection."

Gabbard is an admirer of Assad who is a client of Putin.

Both Putin and Assad are war criminals who hate this country and want to do it harm.

Assad has gotten a little bit of what he deserves.

Here's hoping for Putin's turn.

Then Gabbard's.

Then Donald's.

But, as usual, you people will make the rest of us suffer in the meantime.

Waiting for the first massive, destructive, unaccountable, deadly intelligence failure.

Her one "qualification" is that she complained about Hillary Clinton. That's like crack to MAGAts. Hell, I've complained about Hillary Clinton. That makes me just as qualified for this job as Dullsi Gasbag.

#36 | Posted by anton at 2025-02-12 02:51 PM

#33 I'm not sure, but I think I may have created the opposite impression of the one I intended. Gabbard is an unqualified loon.

#37 | Posted by anton at 2025-02-12 02:54 PM

This, like everything else the toddler in charge is doing will not end well.

He has a vendetta to destroy the USA and is doing everything he can to do it.

Congrats GOP.

Special f**k you to McTurtle who had the chance to end him in 2021 and cowardly let him off the hook.

I heard rumors Benedict Arnold was their first choice, but they settled with Tulsi Gabbard.

#40 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-02-12 03:01 PM

"Waiting for the first massive, destructive, unaccountable, deadly intelligence failure."

Does the failure of Trump's brain when he appointed RFKjr or Tilsi Gabbard count? Though I guess that could be more accurately attributed to his lack of intelligence rather than an intelligence failure.

#41 | Posted by danni at 2025-02-12 03:07 PM

Trump was going to appoint Julius Rosenberg but then he was told by a staffer that he was executed in 53. Trump said "so?"

Its nice having a government of change agents rather than a government of incompetent corrupt axxxxxholes that Biden and Democrats prefer that would import the criminal world, ruin public education, dumb us down and steal trillions of everything. They want the records of treasury expenditures hidden so the thievery can be masked and hidden

Garbage confirmed as DNS.

#47 | Posted by Alexandrite at 2025-02-12 04:11 PM

As was said of Jeff Davis, another certified American traitor, she's "as ambitious as Lucifer and cold as a lizard".
I can't remember any time where a DNS was the least bit controversial. The offices too sensitive to play games or allow anyone below the standard of Caesar's wife.

The Trump supporters defending this are either too stupid to see the danger, don't care about the danger or both,

#48 | Posted by BluSky at 2025-02-12 04:49 PM

Gabbard was the first one to expose and destroy Kamala Harris. That's why she's disliked.

#49 | Posted by lee_the_agent at 2025-02-12 04:52 PM

Harris?

Wasn't it Hillary who she went after?

#50 | Posted by ClownShack at 2025-02-12 04:54 PM

She coulda been VP if she were a blonde.

Did you hear Trump quickly burp out, "NO!" when asked on Fox if Shady would be #48?

That was awesome!
