Trump polled advisers about replacing Tulsi Gabbard as intelligence chief

Just a reminder: The whistleblower complaint against Gabbard, that is supposedly so dangerous to national security that it is kept locked in a safe, has still not been shown to congress.

From what I understand from Tulsi's interview, "intelligence reports" flow downhill from the top rather than flowing from her department up to the presidency which is just backward bonkers. Her entire job is to gather intelligence and report it to the presidency. Instead, she's getting reports from the president who gets his "intelligence" from anonymous Twitter trolls.

Can they not just replace trump instead and end this god damn freak show?

Noem, Bondi, Gabbard. Oh, the *women* are the reason he's so unpopular.  These assholes are getting exactly what they deserve. What will it take for women and minorities to realize they are the lowest rung on the Republican ladder? 

What does Laura Loomer say? After all: she's the only one who matters.

News snippet: Donald Trump has privately asked cabinet officials in recent weeks whether he should replace his director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, venting frustration that she shielded a former deputy who undercut his rationale for war with Iran, according to two people briefed on the discussions. It is not clear that Trump will actually fire Gabbard over the episode. Currently, there is no standout candidate to take the job, and advisers have cautioned that creating a high-profile vacancy before a successor is ready could cause unhelpful political distractions. But Trump’s discussions marks an ominous development for Gabbard, given the president tends to poll his advisers when he starts to seriously consider whether a personnel change is necessary. The two people spoke on the condition of anonymity to discuss private conversations. Trump’s doubts about Gabbard followed her testimony at the world wide threats hearing on Capitol Hill last month where she declined to condemn Joe Kent, who had resigned days earlier after arguing that Iran did not pose an imminent threat to the United States, the people said. The nature of Kent’s departure and his criticism of the war had already angered Trump, but he expressed particular frustration about Gabbard seemingly defending Kent and appearing reluctant to defend the administration’s position to attack Iran, the people said.

Why does Trump need an intelligence advisor? He has no intelligence. He should apologize to the world, donate his fortune to the United States Treasury (the ENTIRE fortune), and admit to his many crimes. We need a reckoning, America. We need to FIX THIS.

Why is it that the women in this cabinet are apparently the first to fall on the sword? Heggy, Lutnick and Kennedy have been just as damaging?

The revolving door in this administration is spinning so fast it’s basically a wind turbine at this point. Imagine being hand-picked for a top-tier intel role only to have the boss "check the menu" for a replacement before you’ve even figured out where the office coffee machine is. It’s not a cabinet; it’s a reality show pilot where everyone is getting voted off the island in the first ten minutes. Loyalty in DC has the shelf life of an open carton of milk in July.

You know what's even better than having a delusional, narcissistic idiot as president? Having a delusional, narcissistic idiot as president that turns over his entire cabinet of opportunistic, morally bankrupt yes people every single year. It's so healthy for a country!

Firing all the women first. Noem, Tulsi and Bondi. Next will be the minority men, Rubio and Patel.

After all the grifting Tulsi did to get into power it would be hilarious if she was fired barely over a year in.

When you are on the Trump Train it's only a matter of time before you get thrown off the front.

If she gets fired, who's going to pass secrets to Russia?

I will never not laugh at the people that think they are his special little boys/girls getting tossed under the bus like everyone else.

Maybe it's time to clean out the junk drawer that he considers a cabinet.

I’ve seen it before. Executives are unhappy with things and think “shaking up” the org chart will solve their problems. They think that if they just get the right team, everything will work out. Interestingly, these “shake ups” always pre-suppose that they are part of the right team.

A lot of replacement talk happening. Is this about the time he started ousting people to deflect blame from himself last time? I thought he was supposed to be smart. He didn't learn from his first term at all.

Loyalty is always a one way street with Trump 

Trump's trying to rearrange the deck chairs before the midterms - after which Senate approvals will be hard to come by.

But Tulsi scored highest on the cognitive test, sir!!!

What’s about we replace Gabbard with Idk say Putin?!” - Trump probably

Here we go again just like his first term of replacing everyone around him and throwing anyone under the bus

Trump admin needs more intelligence yep

You mean he asked Putin for permission?

Here comes the wave of firings like those of his first term. It’s just taken longer this time around. It is becoming obvious that no matter how loyal and willing that these tRump ultra-sycophants are, it’s never enough to satisfy the insane narcissism of our wanna be emperor.

Looks like the chosen few from his binders of women are being shown the door. Now we just need to see that p**** Hegseth fired.
