President Donald Trump directly rebuked Tulsi Gabbard, his own director of national intelligence, during a Q&A with reporters on Friday afternoon amid reports that she’s an increasingly irrelevant figure within his administration.

After being asked by MSNBC’s Vaughn Hillyard about why he was considering a strike on Iran given his expressed opposition to the Bush administration’s war in Iraq, Trump stated that Iran had gathered “a tremendous amount of [nuclear] material.”

“What intelligence do you have that Iran is building a nuclear weapon? Your intelligence community has said they have no evidence that they are at this point,” followed up Hillyard.

“Well, then my intelligence community is wrong. Who in the intelligence community said that?” shot back Trump. “Your director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard,” observed the reporter. “She’s wrong,” replied Trump matter-of-factly. The commander-in-chief’s dismissal of Gabbard comes just a few days after Politico reported that Gabbard was on the outs.

1. Which republicon is lying?

Or could it be both? That's likely, of course.

But my hunch is that Tulsi is actually spewing what the intelligence reports say,
and that Krasnov is pissed because it doesn't match his desired gambit.

With such a substantive track record of abject lies, Krasnov gets the fugly finger
this time for this particular set of G.O.P. lies.

2. I have a hunch that since Russia is an ally of Iran,

and Tulsi is Putin's pawn, she was motivated to get the intel statement out before the war drums started. I'm still not sure about Iran's nuclear weapon development status.

I don't know why Trump is more allied with Netanyahu than Putin now. I can only speculate that Bibi's kompromat is somehow worse.

5. Bibi has greased trumps palms better, one way or another,

than putin at this point, is my guess. And no matter how hard I try, I can't feel any pity for tulsi... even tho she is, like so many others, thrown under the bus automatically because she's female. But she's as stupid and as much a russian agent as Krasnov!

3. Trump trusts strongmen over anyone else. Netanyahu and Putin. Though it looks like maybe Netanyahu is replacing Putin

as Trump's newest bestie aka beastie.

4. Man, same type of situation as with bush and cheney.

At least they had the intelligence to work the "intelligence." I still pity Colin Powell. They ruined that man... as well as cost the lives of how many of our intelligence assets in the field?!

[BoRaGard]

8. The My Lai massacre ruined Powell long before Bush and Cheney went All-Republicon on him

He will live in infamy, like so many republicans who have
violated the Constitution and lied to the American people.

10. Good on you for remembering, BoRaGard! nt

[Snarkoleptic]

6. Donold is conflicted as his pal Putin gets loads of Shahed drones and drone tech from Iran.

He's struggling to find a path to subservience to both Bibi and Vlad.
The intel/kompromat those guys must have on him must be damning.

7. Let's see... Who's next at Fox News to join the team?

She's gone.
He loves attractive women, so Laura Ingraham is out. haha

[live love laugh]

9. BushCo redux

11. She's already changed her tune and is now saying that Iran was a few weeks from building a bomb,
