She and Roharbacher were both on the House Arms Services Committee pushing back against McCain & Co. :)


New York Times tweeted that Gabbard was under discussion
for U.S. Ambassador to the United Nations. (You'll need to drive a wooden stake through Powers.)

Trump's chief strategist Stephen Bannon is reportedly a big fan of Gabbard
because of her right-leaning stances on guns, refugees and Islamic extremism.

Great choice!

Of course the left media is already downplaying her. Maybe they will call her a racist and misogynist.

►That Trump's considering mil vet & Dem Congresswoman @TulsiGabbard as UN Ambassador shows how serious & coherent his foreign policy shift is

The ONLY Congressperson that spoke OUTLOUD, UNAPOLOGETIC sanity on Syria that I know of.
She's a veteran so she has that brittle side.
Is she 'awake' and opposed to the globalists surrounding her?
Was she just playing a 'role' / controlled opposition or speaking from her heart? idk...
but I'm SURE Bannon will find out. :)

And just last week I was hoping she could take on a leadership role...

She would be awesome. She also got dissed by the DNC, which gives her street cred.

Not a bad looker, either lol (shit, there's that internalized misogyny again!)

I also like how in an interview, she will be talking all serious in interview-speak, then accidentally slip into surfer dood jive lol

[misterx]

This is a LIE! Trump only surrounds himself with neocons.

I wonder what Tulsi has to say about the White Helmets..?

[jllundqu]

Tulsi would we a welcome addition to the foreign policy team. She is passionately anti-war and non-interventionist. She is against regime change, was against Libya, Iraq, etc etc. She would be badass, imo.

I personally think she could make a run in 2020 and this would certainly pad her resume'

You heard it here, folks. Tulsi Gabbard will be on the DEM ticket in 2020.

[undergroundrr]

Rohrbacher and Gabbard would be WAY better than anybody else who's being floated.

Gabbard Statement on Meeting with President-Elect Donald Trump
November 21, 2016

New York, NY—U.S. Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard (HI-02) today released the following statement on her meeting with President-elect Donald Trump regarding Syria:

"President-elect Trump asked me to meet with him about our current policies regarding Syria, our fight against terrorist groups like al-Qaeda and ISIS, as well as other foreign policy challenges we face. I felt it important to take the opportunity to meet with the President-elect now before the drumbeats of war that neocons have been beating drag us into an escalation of the war to overthrow the Syrian government—a war which has already cost hundreds of thousands of lives and forced millions of refugees to flee their homes in search of safety for themselves and their families.

“While the rules of political expediency would say I should have refused to meet with President-elect Trump, I never have and never will play politics with American and Syrian lives.

“Serving the people of Hawaiʻi and our nation is an honor and responsibility that I do not take lightly. Representing the aloha spirit and diversity of the people of Hawaiʻi, I will continue to seek common ground to deliver results that best serve all Americans, as I have tried to do during my time in Congress.

“Where I disagree with President-elect Trump on issues, I will not hesitate to express that disagreement. However, I believe we can disagree, even strongly, but still come together on issues that matter to the American people and affect their daily lives. We cannot allow continued divisiveness to destroy our country.

“President-elect Trump and I had a frank and positive conversation in which we discussed a variety of foreign policy issues in depth. I shared with him my grave concerns that escalating the war in Syria by implementing a so-called no fly/safe zone would be disastrous for the Syrian people, our country, and the world. It would lead to more death and suffering, exacerbate the refugee crisis, strengthen ISIS and al-Qaeda, and bring us into a direct conflict with Russia which could result in a nuclear war. We discussed my bill to end our country’s illegal war to overthrow the Syrian government, and the need to focus our precious resources on rebuilding our own country, and on defeating al-Qaeda, ISIS, and other terrorist groups who pose a threat to the American people.

“For years, the issue of ending interventionist, regime change warfare has been one of my top priorities. This was the major reason I ran for Congress—I saw firsthand the cost of war, and the lives lost due to the interventionist warmongering policies our country has pursued for far too long.

“Let me be clear, I will never allow partisanship to undermine our national security when the lives of countless people lay in the balance."

That could have been written by RON PAUL..... she would be PERFECT for the Foreign Policy Team.... I tweeted the hell out of this to anyone who would listen showing my support for this pick. I suggest you do the same. In matters of WAR and PEACE, she is an ally.

If Trump wanted to impress me all he has to do is say there will be no UN Ambass. and the US will not fund any UN activities , ever.

Jumped on that hashtag! Sent to all 100 on my feed lol..

I also sent to Ron Paul and Rand Paul asking them for a statement of support for her as a potential pick....

[Tywysog Cymru]

Probably one of my favorite Democrats, I'm pleasantly surprised!

You heard it here, folks. Tulsi Gabbard will be on the DEM ticket in 2020.
I predicted this back in 1987.

I'd vote for an anti-war socialist vs. a pro-war "capitalist" all day long.

He does need some of the "diversity" he promised (unless by "diversity" he meant political beliefs). All the other candidates so far seem to be the usual mostly white males.

Sanity Walked Through The Trump Tower Doors Today (http://www.ronpaullibertyreport.com/archives/sanity-walked-through-the-trump-tower-doors-today)
By Chris Rossini - 11/21/2016


President-Elect Trump has been meeting with one bomb-thrower after another over the last week. How refreshing to see that Rep. Tulsi Gabbard (D-Hawaii) visited Trump Tower today. Last year, Gabbard made headlines for questioning the Nobel Peace Prize winning President's regime change policy for Syria.

As Daniel McAdams reported at the time for The Ron Paul Institute:


Gabbard first raised eyebrows several weeks ago when she began to openly question President Obama's Middle East policies, and particularly his "Assad must go" policy in Syria. It is unusual for a first-term Member of Congress to take such a public position in opposition to a sitting president in her own party -- particularly if she has any interest in continuing her political career.

It's quite commendable for Gabbard to put peace above party and president.

Gabbard was asked by Wolf Blitzer if the U.S. has learned from its foreign policy failures in the Middle East. Her answer was fantastic:


No...and the reason for this is that after Iraq, the United States went ahead and did the very same thing in Libya, overthrowing Gaddafi. Now, ISIS is growing in strength, has a stronghold in Libya today with plans to continue to expand. And what's even crazier is that now the United States policy is looking to do the very same thing once again in Syria with this focus and determination on overthrowing the Syrian government of Assad which will only serve to make ISIS stronger in Syria...

Today, after meeting with the President-Elect, Gabbard said the following, which is music to every peace-loving American's ears:


“I felt it is important to take the opportunity to meet the President-elect now before the drumbeats of war that neocons have been beating drag us into an escalation of the war to overthrow the Syrian government.”

Gabbard is against a "no-fly zone" in Syria (which Hillary Clinton was for) and has no interest in getting the U.S. in a confrontation with Russia.

Tulsi is like Trump. She appears to be dumping Bernie for a younger man.

[enhanced_deficit]

She would make a great Sec of DoEDW if Hon. Trump created Dept of Ending Dumb Wars.
