You can get away with lying to Congress if no one punishes you.
You can get away with lying to Congress if no one punishes you.
No, the point is she couldn't lie under oath to Congress, so she didn't say it to them, but once she's not under oath, she jumps on social media to lie about what she said.
Torn between 2 narcissists. Trump v. Putin.
And of course no MAGA ever gets held accountable for perjury before Congress so what’s the point anymore - just more fodder for reality TV?
Calvinball, but for the Situation Room.
If she's backtracking now, doesn't that mean, she commited perjury at the hearing??
Wow, what a stunningly corrupt, two-faced, flip-flop statement!!! She just got through saying that she DIDN'T think Iran had imminent nuclear capability! What a SUCK UP!!!
She is such a fake poser
Shameless! They are all one big SHIT SHOW!
Anyone surprised
Everyone is lying, except the liars.
Then she lied before Congress
Jon Stewart showed multiple clips of Bibi saying Iran is weeks away from making a nuclear weapon in 2005, 2015, 2018, 2021. Tulsi is now parroting the lies of Bibi because she fears losing her job.
Pathetic. Not unexpected from her.
The DNI is supposed to advise the President on intelligence updates and threat assessments of the entire IC. What good a DNI is for if they aren't advising the President? or worse... if the president isn't even considering their advice?
They never stop lying, it's unbelievable how stupid they think everyone is. It's just their followers who believe
Disfunctional.
Vlad doesn't have the funds of AIPAC.
some news for you: waiting for some news service to notice: i did:
It’s the Iraq WMD false claims all over again - have we learnt from last time?
She’s lying. I heard her say the words.
Tulsi, give us your best Colin Powell.
Weeks to months? I’m guessing they have Concepts of a Nuke.
“America has intelligence“ AKA “dear leader, says”.
I suspect there has been some pressure brought to bear.
Well there goes the professionalism of our intelligence services. Donald Trump flying by the seat of his pants is a scary idea in every way.
Yeah right, Bibi's been saying that for 30 years, and the U.S. has lived with it. So has Israel. This is an excuse to go to war, nothing more. This entire administration is a collection of lying psychopaths and shouldn't be trusted at all. They lie constantly.
She’s never been a serious person anyway. Wasn’t she picked to dismantle intelligence?!
It's all about power to make money All about money They don't care about america They don't care about the world They only care about themselves to make money To have a life of rich ppl
Iran has been three days from having a nuclear weapon for over 20 years. Enough already.
I’m no expert in law, but is lying to Congress a felony? Asking for 18 U.S.C. § 1001.
When was her testimony?
End of March.
It was in March. It doesn’t seem inconsistent with this statement, and all are consistent with basically “they’ve been shortening their breakout time but haven’t made a decision to try to go the last mile yet.”
But also: tulsi Gabbard is not a serious person and has no credibility at all
This is the best—and only, really—take except I would add she’s so bad she’s dangerous to natsec
Doesn’t Russia call her “our gf Tulsi”?
Within weeks to months to years...
Her original statement was the truth. Walking it back is the lie.
She's ridiculous! This is not a game Tulsi! JFC!!!
But Rueters said today that is not the case. Iran does not possess hat capability.
Netanyahu has been saying Iran is weeks away since the 90’s. It was bullshit then and bullshit now.
Department of No Intelligence 🤮
Iran has been weeks away from getting nukes since at least the mid-nineties.
This is Iraq all over again, and American service people shouldn’t die for. Powerful political pacs.
Trump is claiming, " No, American boots will be on the ground," we know better. He is a blatant liar. If he puts one American soldier at risk for Iran, he will have to go into hiding from his base. They don't seem to care very much about his current destruction, but they are going nuts over Iran.
It’s all scripted—a drama performed for the masses. None of it is real.
This was easy to see coming
Shitler has shut Tulsi out of the Iran war meetings so of course she needs to change what she said when she testified to Congress.
Agreed. However, on theater hand, what did any of us really expect of Tulsi Gabbard anyway?!...
We knew she is A spy and a liar.
All bullshit. F47 doesn't agree? Lie, lie, lie.
She lies now ...or then. She's a liar either way.
Yes the “dishonest media” is misrepresenting what you said by showing the tape of you testifying. How dare they call you on your bullshit?
Show me the yellowcake.
All I hear is “weapons of mass destruction”. MAGA manufactured distraction. Release the Epstein files now‼️‼️‼️
For over 30 years they have been saying Iran was only a snails pubic hair from having nukes. They have the press saying the same 30+ old script.
Reliable rule of thumb: Everything after “out of context” is always a lie.
When you're "intelligence" is from Bibi, who has been saying the same thing about Iran from decades then we know who the fool is.
Considering the fact that the "news" has been reporting that Iran is "weeks" from producing nuclear weapons for about 30 years!
She’s a liar!!! No surprise…
So she perjured herself?
Drag her back in to testify under oath that the conditions have magically changed
Agree.
Yes she is back peddling Another incompetent pandering Russian asset
She has to bow to the $Conman or lose her job. They all do it. MAGAS HAVE NO MORAL COMPASS. PERIOD.
Killing civilians is what makes war effective. Nobody cares how many soldiers are killed. They simply put your name on a wall. And send in more soldiers. Killing civilians gets people's attention. Saves lives in the long run.
• Timeline is irrelevant. • Iran's public commitment to destroy Israel is sufficient to declare war on Iran. • War is about killing the enemy And killing anything that gets in the way of killing the enemy. • Bibi Netanyahu understands war.
Real World Rules of War: • Civilian populations are accountable for their government's act of war. • Civilians MUST STOP their government from committing acts of war by any means necessary. Else, civilians will die when war comes to their kitchen. And it will come.
Geneva rules were written by Disney characters. This is what avoiding killing civilians gets you: • Vietnam -- US spent 10 years killing 58 thousand Americans. Cost billions. Accomplished nothing. • Afghanistan -- US spent 20 years killing 2,500 Americans. Cost $2.3 trillion. Accomplished nothing.
• This is why the world speaks English, not German or Japanese. • After Tokyo firebombing (Gen. Curtis LeMay), Japan needed 5 more months of war and two atomic bombs to accept Unconditional Surrender. • War is immoral. And sometimes necessary.
I'm so fucking tired of these right wing idiots blaming "the media" for their idiocy.
Putin/Trump has intel on her.
Because her Orange Jesus told her to
Anyway isn’t that statement 30 years old now? Same statement to justify destroying and killing 1000s of children in Iraq, but Christian Nationalists love death and destruction.
She does not live in reality.
Words not spoken have no context 🤬 Effing Maga-brain moron
So the Heritage is going with China…
She said: “The IC continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003.” It's on video. www.c-span.org/clip/senate-...
Her entire sworn testimony was taken out of context. 😉
Lügenpresse!
Posting on social media is one thing. Testifying under oath is another.
& you’re surprised? 😳
Because lying is more fun than admitting you don’t know what you’re talking about!
Why is it they can never show evidence of what they're lying about?
I’m old enough to remember when Tulsi Gabtard ran for Potus saying Kamala would get us into more “forever wars”
She is NOT doing her job because she does not know how
I have to admit this: I can’t even look anymore. Need a brief break. It’s all way too much. 🤷♀️🙄😭😭
Someone got to her. 😉
Lying to congress…
Trump is upset with her so she turned. It’s simple. Helps when you’re missing a spine.
Iran has been close to a nuke for about as long as the US has been close to affordable healthcare.
Haha, good one!
If you R waiting for Congress to get involved with the declaration of war, don't hold your breath. History suggests you are wasting your time. Congress hasn't declared war since December 1941. Every President since then has ignored the fragile Constitution. The Mango Mussolini will do what he likes.
Let's hope it's not two weeks!
White Americans chose this.
The "skunk," who is Tulsi, is holding on with bloody fingernails to keep her job. She will say and do anything that the would-be dictator wants, and that in and of itself is extremely dangerous!
bsky.app/profile/ev0l...
America has NO INTELLIGENCE community anymore, and instead has a bunch of sycophants gargling orange balls on command!
She’s more interested in keeping her job and toeing the line. They are going to strike on July 4th because of course they are.
Or, more to the point, when she deliberately obfuscates a hard-and-fast reality.
It's like the Clap-On Presidency: "Clap on, clap off, the clapper!" followed by "I've fallen and I can't get up".
Yes, it's always the media's fault. It is never the Trump administration's fault. They are merely victims of all of a cruel, unfair world...OMG, How can anyone take these people seriously?!
Kissing the ass of a freaking lunatic, she doesn’t wanna lose her position and Trump’s out of his goddamn mind
📌
Iran has been a snails pubic hair away from having having 100 nukes, 4 attack klingon starships, a for over 30 years now.
She didn’t write it. It was written for her. She’ll be replaced within two weeks.
She didn’t write this.
Make. Them. Prove. It!
So she lied under oath.
Seems someone is desperate to keep off of trumps “enemies list”. Good luck with that you stupid twat.
bsky.app/profile/stev...
It’s almost like she’s an embittered mercenary rent-an-asset who has no idea what she’s doing and is completely at the mercy of and in thrall to a cult leader… Wait … 🤔
I think Tulksi’s toast
We heard her the first time.
This is what happens when cabinet members and advisors are chosen for loyalty over competence.
Never qualified to be a greeter at Walmart.
OMG, she's totally flip-flopping to please Donny.
Russian asset Tulsi Gabbard bent the knee to her master Donald Trump! So she keeps her job as DNI for the time being.
Even if what is she is saying is true, we are here bc Trump ripped up the Iran Nuclear Deal in his first term. It was negotiated by Obama and Trump didn’t want Obama’s deal, he wanted his own deal. He was never able to renegotiate a deal.
But what is more important than saving your job?
It's like the budget version of WMD. Nobody believes it. What a shit shot. The USA has zero respect in the world. They wonder why everyone hates them. Fat loud mouth bullshitting ignorant fucks.
No surprise there— after all, she was hired to lie just like ALL of Trump’s Cabinet members. If they don’t— they’re fired. 🤷🏻♂️🚩
Republicans are fkg LIARS. NEVER believe a single word they say.
Flip!!
Do they know how stupid they all look all they do is lie! But what’s sad is we are going to lose our country because no one has the balls to report or call out all the lies I mean how ridiculous
Lily Munster is a dick
When will truth ever come out and this administration be held accountable? This created chaos by trump is making us less safe.
It was live on television without cuts you stupid bitch the world saw & heard your statement declaring Iran did NOT have a nuclear weapon.. but America does,double standard much....
Well if Trump's MAGAts did have double standards, they'd have none....
Krasnov told her Putin is mad u have to get us into this war
Turns out it was "two weeks."
It is a cult.
Bee-bee has been saying this exact thing word for word since 1993. 🤔 over and over through decades.
. She's a Russian nesting assclown. Different story any time Putin needs it. .
Yup. Iran made Putin's drones for a while but now he can make his own so now Tulsi is free to throw them under the bus.
so she's lying.
While also putting out bizzarro Nuclear War videos..🤔🤯
Trump didn't like what she was saying, so she had to blame a Democrat.
What a terrible joke our country is. The rest of the world is just horror struck at our new regime while half our country has their heads in the sand
Gosh! Who could have possibly imagined that installing a Kremlin asset as the Director of National Intelligence of our country could become a national crisis in 150 days. Well, to be fair, who could have possibly imagined that WE would elect a Russian asset as President! Again?!?!
Because she is a Russian asset.
And I understand Iran was making the weapons for decades and still have none. We also went to war because Muammar Gaddafi was building weapons of mass dissolution back in the day and there were none. Always a con, always a war.
Horrific
Omg straight out of orange turd’s playbook. The media did it!
Pants on fire. Just like W.
Tulsi is being a good little flotsam and parroting “dear leader”, so she doesn’t get ousted. Apparently for Tulsi, the 🍊🤡 is on the verge of
She said they do not have nuclear weapons. How is that taken out of context?
Weak cabinet.
Sounds perfect for the job she has, right?
Sucking Turd's dick is more important than whatever that truth thing is supposed to be.
Please tell me you're not surprised . . .
Even more dangerous when she blames "fake news" for her own freakin' incompetence!!!
She's Russian first. Must mean Putin has given her a change of orders. About-turns are par for the course.
Same song and dance as Iraq. Makes even less sense after living through Libya, Afghanistan and Iraq. But. War is senseless.
Didn’t she lie to congress or the senate?
No but sounds like she's lying now to collaborate with the felon.
Ok, Tulsi dear ... we're going to move you to wing for the deceitfully compromised now where no decent, sane person will ever bother you again.
Her testimony 100% contradicts her. It is here as a screenshot: mastodon.online/@davidaugust... And here as the original: www.dni.gov/index.php/ne...
Trump Terrible Toadies gasligh and lie. Make the lies big, repeat. Extort and threaten MSM execs and owners to reproduce those lies. Americans are living in Trump's Alternate Facts world.
Liar
Every time they get caught lying it's because it's out of context. No pattern there....riiight?
Tulsi brushing her teeth that morning before the little mouth puppet opened her lid to spew.
We have heard this all before . Lies and flip flopping .
It took her 2 hours to put out a statement agreeing with Trump after he said she was 'wrong'.
Because she knows she can lie to the media but can't lie under oath. And MAGA will eat it up.
Stupid people can be dangerous we just never thought they would be running the executive branch in our lifetime
Awwwww! Anyone who lies claims it's "taken out of context."
Gabbard got the call from Modi.
Perhaps we are experiencing mass hallucinations? www.washingtonpost.com/video/politi...
Bring her back to explain her testimony. At least Powell had pictures (which I'm proud to say I never believed from the get go.)
We’ve heard this bullshit before when Bush was in office, causing us to go into a war with Iraq.
Is a single Dem going to charge her with contempt of congress?
No.
She should be locked up in a cell with Stevie “Three Shirts” Bannon.
Tulsi, like Trump are opportunist politicians 🙄 they have been both registered democrats and republicans. If I remember correctly, Tulsi was also a registered independent. Neither have a political convection. They just do what will benefit them the most.
So she lied under oath to congress? Prison time. Just like Martha Stewart went for lying to an fbi agent.. who btw was James Comey . Shocker.
Seriously since when is anybody in Trump’s administration tell the truth or even stick to anything remotely truthful.? Get real.
Did we expect anything different from her? I don’t think so!
Tulsi, where is your evidence?
You dumbasses have been saying the same damn thing since 1995 giving yourselves a bite out of the weapons of mass destruction fiasco.
I sure I’m as shocked as everyone else.
Is it possible the classified annexes said something different from the publicly disclosed sections?
Tulsi is a Russian agent full stop
Yeah, this is going to piss Putin off, bigly, if she sides with Trump against Iran.
People keep forgetting that she is a Putin propaganda mole. Trump kicks her like a dog that just peed on the carpet, then ignores the intelligence she provided since it didn't match his gut. Good for Trump's politic since it refutes the notion he listens to Putin's mole...but bad for US intel.
The lady now says War is Peace, Hate is Love...
So, she admits lieing under oath?
Good news. We know she’s a liar.
It’s probably two weeks away. As always with anything concerning trump and his government. Or too weaks…
She can't very well contradict his royal highness now can she? /s
Yes, well isn't she simply a token DNI, as I understand it?
Either they made her backtrack or she's afraid of losing her position as she has nowhere to land. Such vile people who care only for themselves with no care about the servicemembers and country that they're harming with their popularity games.
Tulsi 'Colin Powell' Gabbard
They're all fucking liars.
BECAUSE SHES ALWAYS BEEN A FUCKING LIAR YOU IDIOTS. WHY THE FUCK DID YOU BELIEVE HER IN THE FIRST PLACE!?!?!??!?!?!?!??!?!? She has ties to Assad. She has ties to the Kremlin/ruZZia/putin. She has ties to Iran. AND YOU FUCKING BELIEVE HER!?
At this point I hope that the USA and Israhell gets smited to smithereens by god. And I don't invoke god often. It's no wonder the world hates these bullies. Lies and lies for miles, and crocodile tears when any of your victims hit back! Fucking gaslighter knockoff nazis the usa and israel are.
sluti lies Film at Eleven
HAHAHAHA
She’s the first example of a cabinet member who could be arrested for treason. She’ll say exactly what she’s told to.
Who is testing radiation levels near bombed Iranian 'nuclear' facilities to test whether or not they stored WMD???
Shocking. But not.
