Tulsi Confirmed by Senate

Nothing good is going to happen, nothing ever happens, but this is a change in the status quo regardless.

RT:

Tulsi Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman, has been confirmed by the US Senate as director of national intelligence, following scrutiny on Capitol Hill over her past positions.

On Wednesday, the Senate approved her nomination in a 52-48 vote, with only one Republican, Senator Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, opposing her confirmation.

Gabbard, a former presidential candidate and Iraq War veteran, has been a fierce critic of the US intelligence community she is now set to lead.

In a sharp rebuke following the vote, McConnell claimed Gabbard is unfit for the “critical position” and has a troubling record of poor judgment.

“The Senate’s role in advice and consent is not a formality, but a duty—one we must take seriously…” McConnell stated.

Yeah, Mitch McConnell, very well known for his sense of duty to America.
