Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, surprised Central Intelligence Agency officials last week when she included an undercover senior CIA officer on a roster of 37 current and former officials she stripped of security clearances. ... Gabbard didn't know the CIA officer had been working undercover, according to a person familiar with the fallout from the list's release. Three other people with knowledge of the situation said that Gabbard's office didn't meaningfully consult with the CIA before releasing the list.

Knowingly revealing the identity of a covert U.S. intelligence officer or agent is a felony, though it is unclear whether the law applies to disclosures made by government officials.

Mark Zaid, an attorney who represents intelligence officers and whose own security clearance was revoked by Trump, suggested that Gabbard may have broken the law simply by making the memo public.

Is this had been Obama or Biden or Harris, the Right would be demanding that they be tried for treason, and if convicted, executed.

Well, that guy and everyone he knows will soon be dead, so the government will not have to pay any more salary. As for death benefits, well, the Social Security Administration needs the money elsewhere, so--too bad to his survivors...

I was assigned to DIA during the phonus-bolunus Iraqistan and Pashtunistan wars. Except for three miniscule discrepancies in the film Fair Game starring Sean Penn, the hairs on my arms stood up as I watched this movie and the accuracy of the events it portrayed. So, again we have a Republican, off-shoot Hare Krishna cult member Tulsi Gabbard, revealing the identity of a National Clandestine Services Officer. The FSB, Mossad, and MSS will now re-trace her assignments and uncover her potential sources. Good luck to those poor guys and gals.

The CIA and FBI pose a threat to the nefarious Trumpf Crime Family (TCF), so the Trumpf junta is slowly debilitating them and installing MAGA loyalists. The writing on the wall is so spectacularly clear the late Ray Charles could have read it.

So, thanks again Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and Tim Walz for squandering away your incumbency by kissing Benjamin Netanyahu's a** and "defending Israel" while he obliterated the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip the entirety of the 2024 presidential election campaign. The antiwar bloc (6,265,888 samaritans) walked away in disgust from the Democratic Party on 5 Nov 2024, just as they did on 5 Nov 1968. In 1968, the Democrats lost 11,857,201 votes they had in 1964.

Now the US is at this horrible inflection point led by a decaying oligarchic sex predator who is no doubt a Russian asset.

Gut arbet, 2024 AIPAC Democrats!
