Trump reportedly angered by intelligence chiefās social media warning against āwarmongersā placing the world āon the brink of nuclear annihilationā
As he weighs joining Israelās war against Iran, Donald Trump reportedly finds himself at odds with his Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, with one White House official saying that he has ājust been kind of down on her in generalā of late.
Trump was recently incensed, according to Politico, by Gabbardās decision to post a three-minute video on X in the early hours of June 10 in which she warned that āpolitical elite and warmongersā are ācarelessly fomenting fear and tensions between nuclear powers,ā placing the world āon the brink of nuclear annihilation.ā
Trump is said to have been angered by the video, accusing Gabbard of going āoff-messageā and rebuking her for it in person.
You shouldnāt be glad. The getting rid of government scope and distribution is a way to consolidate power with the office of the president.
The various offices in a democracy, the span of government is a kind of hidden balance built into liberal beurocracies. More complicated power distribution, harder to subvert.
Tyrannies tend to be very straight forward and direct in their power distributions.
Heās making the ultimate take over easier.
Each office he destroys is one less person who might help depose him.
