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

Summary
Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s nominee for Director of National Intelligence, faces backlash over claims she promoted Russian disinformation, though she denies these accusations.
With no intelligence experience, Gabbard has previously clashed with U.S. officials over foreign policy, including controversial stances on Syria’s Assad and Ukraine.
In 2022, she was accused of echoing Russian propaganda by sharing unverified claims about U.S.-funded labs in Ukraine, which she insists were misinterpreted.
Critics, including Rep. Abigail Spanberger, argue her nomination raises serious national security concerns.

Don't be so sure. These Senators know how much power they have, and their 6 year terms guarantee that the ones elected this year will have to deal with life in the next Administration, whatever that happens to be.
I think Trump is expecting Gabbard's and Gaetz's nominations to fail in the hopes that he can get the Fox News guy in charge of the Pentagon. There seems to be a lot of jockeying around regarding the military, that scares me more than what Gaetz can do at the head of a department that despises him.
right, none. the fix has been in for a while now, this train's brakes have failed and all we can do is hang on.
Maybe you're right. But if the fix were really in, Rick Scott would have been the majority leader.
I think thune shows exactly how little they are going to matter. the gop panicked since they caught the truck and had to do a secret ballot to get the establishment, next in line guy in place. if the fix wasn't in, they could have held a regular vote. instead all we can do now is hope that the party that has no spine, suddenly grows one.
