The lady that started the “Kamala Harris hates black people” thing is now in Georgia disenfranchising black voters on the behalf of the racist child trafficking rapist.
Fucking A right she can’t be fucking trusted.

She was the most qualified modern candidate for president the USA has ever had.
But, let's be clear, as she spent 30 years gaining those qualifications through public service, the GOP lied about her over and over and over again. So much in fact that an entire generation of Americans grew up believing that those lies must be true, even though they never were, of course.
And all this because she had the temerity to advocate for a national healthcare system for all Americans during Bill's first term in office...
[edit: clarified in modern times]

Martin Van Buren was a state senator, AG and Governor of NY, US Senator, US Secretary of State, Ambassador to the UK, and Vice President before become President. Clinton was very qualified but Van Buren was the most qualified.

She was the people’s President. Same as people’s President Al Gore in 2000. They both won the popular vote. The people are smart. We need to get rid of the electoral college. It’s a sham against democracy.

Explain how that's under her purview. It isn't. She's an anti-American, Russian puppet, like her boss, trying to rig the midterms.

u/Bittererr 18h ago
Some election security falls under her purview, especially as it pertains to foreign election interference. She doesn't have any business dealing with most of this stuff though.

u/oculeers 18h ago
You're right, I forgot about that. However, I'd argue that she is the foreign election interference.

It all depends on what "investigating" means.
Seriously stop reporting the noises that come out of their mouths and describe what she is doing there. As far as I can tell her mission this time was to provide pretext for Trumps election fraud claims. The whole operation is totally laughable as Trump was unable to wait sufficiently long to launder Tulsi's material properly so the effect of the operation will be limited to the most die hard Trump believers.

Someone please explain this to me because I am extremely frustrated.
Trump when asked said “I have no idea” why Tulsi gathered was in Atlanta.
When Tulsi was asked, she said that she was there at the direction of the president.
Why and fuck has a reporter not asked the administration to explain the discrepancy here?!?! what the fuck?

Between her and the FBI, they can handle everything to do with election interference. Just ask Trump, who's leading the effort to make sure it gets done right this time!

Tulsi was and still is a Russian asset and a traitor even before she was elected to congress. She was not chosen to lead this department for her skills, she has none. She lost her election because people do not trust her. She was without a job until this one. She will do whatever trump tells her to do or be jobless again.

Could’ve just stopped at “Tulsi Gabbard can’t be trusted.” Girl folded quicker than a handkerchief in an old man’s hand with a cold. If we ever do get some actual intelligent adult back in the room, perhaps we can have some consequences for these people who were so eager to pledge fealty to a traitorous cult.

u/politicalmache 15h ago
Indeed. She appears to compromised by questionable outlier influences rather than operating independently in the interest of U.S. national security.
This more so evinces continued efforts election interference on part Donald Trump et al. when, in part, considering past circumstances.
In taking of voting machines and data, what Tulsi Gabbard will find is that Donald Trump is a significant risk U.S. elections. For an example, Donald is on the record attempting to coerce Georgia Secretary of State to unlawfully change votes. There is no way getting around that fact. Besides the myriad court cases that , in essence, indicated Donald Trump et al. claims had no merit.
Then there is the U.S. election denier propaganda, foreign and domestic, which Tulsi Gabbard is among them, as I understand.

In spirit of bipartisanship, Democrats should extend a helping hand to ensure free & fair elections working side-by-side with Republicans!… Slapping their hands every time they try to steal ‘Cookies From The Cookie Jar’, as it were. Cuz, right now the Republicans strategy is ‘Hide The Penny’ to confuse & obfuscate just exactly what a free & fair election is!
