Hi there, everyone. It's 4 o'clock in New York. One of Donald Trump's nominees is achieving

the rare feat of setting off alarm bells across the political spectrum inside and outside of our

national security agencies and all across the world today.

That would be former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence,

the position that oversees the 18 intelligence agencies that are cornerstone of our national

security and our alliances all around the world. It is also the position that is responsible for putting together, for assembling what goes in and stays out,

of the president's daily brief, the PDB.

It's an agenda setting compilation of the national security information that the American president

and the White House uses to make their decisions. For this role,

Trump chose someone who has made a career out of defending America's adversaries, the world's

autocrats. In 2017, Gabbard made a secret trip to Syria to meet with dictator Bashar al-Assad.

Then months later, she said she was skeptical when U.S. intelligence found that Assad was

behind a chemical weapons attack that killed dozens of people there.

It's a finding that was made with a, quote, very high level of confidence, according to the

Secretary of State of the time, Rex Tillerson.

Tulsi Gabbard has also been a consistent

defender and booster and apologist for Russia's Vladimir Putin. She was instrumental in spreading

Russian disinformation and talking points about the war in Ukraine. President's Putin,

Zelensky, and Biden. It's time to put geopolitics aside and embrace the spirit of aloha, respect, and love for the Ukrainian people by coming to an agreement that Ukraine will be a neutral country, no military alliance with NATO or Russia, and therefore alleviate the legitimate security concerns of both U.S. and NATO countries

as well as Russia, because there'd be no Russian or NATO troops on each other's non-Baltic borders.

This would allow the Ukrainian people to live in peace.

Aloha.
