I'm sorry to see her go. God bless to her husband.

Mike (MJB Wolf) કહ્યું...

Oh no. That's unfortunate.

Leland કહ્યું...

She, as much as Trump, is a high point of the Administration. Sorry to see her step down, even sadder for the reason. We just lost someone in our family to cancer.

Original Mike કહ્યું...

Crap. She's irreplaceable.

Hassayamper કહ્યું...

She's been a breath of fresh air. I still don't trust her on firearms issues, but she seems to be a sincere enemy of Deep State machinations, and that us the most important thing we need in government right now.

Curious to find out who will succeed her. My heart says to put Gen. Flynn back in and dare Thune to do anything about it, but my head says Grenell.

Aggie કહ્યું...

That one hurts. Prayers to her husband for the best medical treatment can offer and hopes for a complete recovery. She has been a warrior.

Tulsi Gabbard and intelligence was always an unlikely match. Now the question is who will the Don nominate as his next US intelligence chief.

Lem Vibe Bandit કહ્યું...

Big loss. Thoughts and prayers for her husband.

hombre કહ્યું...

Bummer for Tulsi, Abraham, Trump and the Country! Prayers needed for all.

Eva Marie કહ્યું...

Gabbard was against the Iran war. We’ll see what podcasts she’ll be appearing on. Ric Grenell for her post. Very best wishes to her and family. Tremendous shame she can’t stay on.

john mosby કહ્યું...

Hate to say this, but if she becomes a widow in the next few years, she will be even more dangerous to the opposition, as a woman with nothing left to lose (she does not have kids). I believe she still has her reserve commission; Trump could appoint her the CG of the DC National Guard. Her basic branch in the Army is MP's; she could be the director of some LE agency. She is a CFMB-wearing Army medic; she could be the Surgeon General. Lots of places where Trump could set her loose to get into 'good trouble.' (can't let the other side monopolize the term!) CC, JSM

Original Mike કહ્યું...

"Ric Grenell for her post."

Good idea.

john mosby કહ્યું...

Yes, appointing Flynn to replace her would be an excellent gauntlet to throw down right before midterms. Remind everyone what we're fighting for. Get some excellent soundbites from the hearing, like some total jackass senator saying "so were you lying when you pleaded guilty, or are you lying now?" followed by Flynn saying "I pled guilty to something I didn't do to protect my son from a false prosecution - wouldn't you?" CC, JSM

RideSpaceMountain કહ્યું...

Although I couldn't have predicted it being for this reason, I never really expected her to make it to the logical end of her tenure anyway...the NIC had and still has it out for her over declassification.

I know she'll be back though, in what form I can't guess.

Breezy કહ્યું...

Sorry to see this news about her husband. I’m glad he’ll have her unwavering strength by his side.

I will miss seeing her excel in her DNI position. She is a great role model for young women. I hope we haven’t seen the last of her.

I think she will be remembered for her honesty and courage about Iran's nuclear intentions -- a matter Netanyahu and the Trump administration including many of his political allies have lied about.

She will also be remembered for her cowardice when cross-examined about the supposed threat Iran posed to the US.

Very sorry for her husband, whatever the politics. Bone cancer means the outcome is not going to be good.

FortheloveofIce કહ્યું...

Has anyone checked to see what Dr. Fauci knows about the gain of function research on viruses that infect people with bone cancer? Alex Jones has some interesting things to say about it.

Iman કહ્યું...

Didn’t have to wait long for the old carrion shitbird TinyEE™ to waddle forth.

Dude1394 કહ્યું...

This is a big low to the country. I hope this wasn’t the deep state winning.

Prayers to her husband, they looked close.

Quaestor કહ્યું...

"I think she will be remembered for her honesty and courage about Iran's nuclear intentions -- a matter Netanyahu and the Trump administration [sic] including many of his political allies have lied about."

How can anyone speak falsely or truthfully about the intentions of a foreign state? States do not have intentions; they have capabilities.

Indefinitely blah, blah isn't a new commenter on this blog, but he pretends to be. We all know him. Through his logic-free pontifications, he wears out his credibility, then exiles himself before Althouse does it for him, then reappears under another nonsensical nom de réseau.

Iman કહ્યું...

Prayers for and best wishes go to Tulsi Gabbard and Abraham.

RCOCEAN II કહ્યું...

Sad to hear it. Bone cancer sounds awful. She's been a great DNI.

Earnest Prole કહ્યું...

Wait, the same Tulsi Gabbard who was selling “No War With Iran” T-shirts before being hired by Trump is now tendering her resignation? Baffling.

Shouting Thomas કહ્યું...

Just finished my chemo/radiation protocol for bladder cancer. Isolated in a single tumor with no metastasis, but the treatment was still an ordeal. The prognosis is for a cure, but it will probably be two months before the scans begin to determine if the cancer has been eradicated. Fortunately, bladder cancer makes itself known very early… blood and blood clots in the urine.

imTay કહ્યું...

Nothing to do with those CIA agents barging into her office when she wasn't there and grabbing some papers... It wasn't a "raid" because they had no warrant.

Don't worry though, MAGA is stronger than ever! Even more pure! The more you distill it down, get rid of the non believers in the one true faith, the stronger it is! Except for the part about winning elections.

FortheloveofIce કહ્યું...

@imTay
Did you not see how many elections MAGA won this week? GOP party is finally pure and all the RINOs erraticated. All the polling saying otherwise is false. Americans dont mind paying more for gas and groceries if it helps Isreal be a strong nation. Red tide is rising!
MAGA!

Iman કહ્યું...

Prayers and all the best to you, as well, Shouting Thomas.

Eva Marie કહ્યું...

Good to hear Shouting Thomas. Rooting for you.

"Did you not see how many elections MAGA won this week?"

Finally eradicated those pesky RINOs! Now the party is pure... and possibly unelectable in swing districts. Bold strategy, Cotton.

Primary wins are nice. General elections are better. Good luck selling 'higher grocery bills for Israel' to suburban moms while telling them all the bad polls are fake.

Brylinski કહ્યું...

Prayers and be well, Shouting Thomas.

@ FortheloveofIce

STFU, already.

General Flynn needs a mention here.

We need to know who to primary in 2027.

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@Shouting Thomas, I’m trying to imagine passing solid blood clots. [Wincing] Good luck and I hope it all works out.

wildswan કહ્યું...

Best of luck to Tulsi Gabbard. Cancer is often survivable these days but it's always really hard. Her husband needs her and she couldn't do both jobs.

Big Mike કહ્યું...

My wife’s best friend’s husband also developed a rare from of bone cancer late in life. He had assumed it was arthritis and there was nothing to do about it. When the pain got severe enough he finally saw a specialist, only to learn that he has stage 4 bone cancer. The doctors prolonged his life by removing his entire femur and replacing it with a polymer “bone” precisely the same size. He blew right through the six months they gave him to live and made it another three or four years.

He was Jewish and he was a mensch.

Eva Marie કહ્યું...

“General Flynn needs a mention here.”
I forgot about General Flynn. He might be a better choice.

Howard કહ્યું...

Life trumps politics.

Gusty Winds કહ્યું...

God Bless you Shouting Thomas. I'm a big fan.

Dave Begley કહ્યું...

Shouting Thomas:

Keep a positive attitude. You can beat cancer. Great improvements in treatments.

Gusty Winds કહ્યું...

Sad about Tulsi's husband. She has conviction. I thought her exit was predictable for many reasons. She is preparing for a 2028 Presidential run.

john mosby કહ્યું...

Shouting T: You are a tough MF. Hang in there. CC, JSM

Leland કહ્યું...

Keep it isolated Thomas. Hope to keep seeing you around here.

Maynard કહ્યું...

Whether she resigned because of her husband's condition, opposition to the Iran War or disfavor among other Intelligence-related execs, she did so with class.

Brava. I really like Tulsi and hope the best for her.

Don't we have too many overlapping Intelligence agencies?

Breezy કહ્યું...

Onward, Shouting Thomas. Wishing you the best outcome. So glad it was caught early.

Craig Mc કહ્યું...

Good luck Shouting. Same for Tulsi and Abraham. I hope she's not lost to public life, your country needs people like her.

paminwi કહ્યું...

Prayers for you Shouting Thomas. Stay strong.

Peachy કહ્યું...

oh no. this is sad. I hope she and her husband fight the cancer fight and win.

Bruce Hayden કહ્યું...

“ "Ric Grenell for her post."

That’s my vote. But backup is LTG Flynn.

Saint Croix કહ્યું...

God bless Shout T.

Maynard કહ્યું...

You will get through this Shouting Thomas.

Josephbleau કહ્યું...

I think Flynn should be the at large chief of federal inspector generals.

Peachy કહ્યું...

Shout T - you got this.

Marcus Bressler કહ્યું...

Prayers for you, ST.

Tina Trent કહ્યું...

Best of luck ST. Piss and grin, as they say.

BUMBLE BEE કહ્યું...

Hang in there with it S.T.!

Rustygrommet કહ્યું...

Good work, Thomas. Keep it up.
