  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Gabbard as DNI was incredibly effective and a very strong person. The vast majority of Trump supporters agree with that. It ain't a surprise that liberals disagree.
Didn’t the Administration lock her out of meetings prior to the Iran (not a) War?

This thread is about her husband's illness, not about whether she was effective or ineffective.
The thread is about the resignation of a cabinet official. The illness is the reason given, but it is not the only one suspected. Reuters reported she was pushed out.

He almost always only pushes out people who do the right thing, so good for her.

She was awful and unqualified, so she didn't belong in the role in the first place.

Truth be told, the same can be said for every member of the Trump administration, from the top down.

Leaked phone call shows Trump’s final humiliation of fired Cabinet member

Axios reports that Bill Pulte, whom Trump wants as his new DNI, called Gabbard and told her that her time was up and that she would have to depart immediately.

“I need to hear it from the president or the White House,” she told Pulte, two officials briefed on the conversation told Axios.

Gabbard then called Trump directly and the president asked her: “What day works best for you?”

Gabbard named June 19 and Trump quickly announced the date on his Truth Social site.
