Tulsi Gabbard: FBI and Intel agencies committed treason trying to steal our democracy

Wow. Tulsi Gabbard didn’t hold back in an interview with Jesse Watters on Fox News!

I’m not a TV news watcher because…well, it drives me nuts. The signal-to-noise ratio is too low, and my blood pressure can’t take it. And, of course, I like to keep up my reading skills which otherwise would atrophy in the 21st century.

So I didn’t see this live, but man, did Tulsi Gabbard make it worthwhile to catch it in the repeats.

Watters had just done a segment on the blockbuster news that the FBI has more than enough evidence to charge Hunter Biden with multiple felonies–something that surprises precisely nobody who reads the news. The man is a train wreck who has sold out our country about 40 times over and literally spent the proceeds on hookers and blow.

Tulsi Gabbard took this as an opportunity to point out something that the MSM would of course like to cover up: Joe Biden likely would not have been president had the FBI not warned Facebook that a boatload of misinformation was about to be released onto their platform and that they should suppress it, and had not the whole intelligence community lied to the world and declared the Hunter Biden laptop Russian disinformation.

Together they suppressed the story until well after the election, thus enabling Joe Biden to skate by without having to face hard questions about his role as the “Big Guy” in selling America down the river.

Here is the transcript via RealClearPolitics:

FMR. REP. TULSI GABBARD: Leaks coming from law enforcement agencies are not good. We often see them happening in the lead-up to elections regardless of which party they are seeking to influence. Our law enforcement entities need to be apolitical so that we can faith in the rule of law.

But what we are seeing here is pointing to something much bigger than what Hunter Biden ends up actually being charged with or indicted with or not. What this reminds me of, which is especially important as we head into this coming election in just a few weeks, early voting has already kicked off in some states, is how our democracy was stolen in 2020.

We saw how heads, former heads of intelligence agencies, the FBI, law enforcement agencies, colluding with Big Tech social media companies and the mainstream media decided hey, we don’t want the American voter to know what the contents of Hunter Biden’s laptop are because we know that they are more likely to vote for Donald Trump instead of Joe Biden if they actually find out what was there.

So they intentionally worked together to withhold that information from voters across the country as they were trying to figure out who to vote for, stealing our democracy.

As you know very well, Jesse, there were just three key states with a difference of 44,000 votes that would have brought Joe Biden and Donald Trump to a tie. 44,000 votes. That is not very many people at all. They saw the writing on the wall. Saw how close it was going to be in those key states and made a decision to steal our democracy.

This is so important for us to remember, never forget, never forgive them for this treason to our democracy that was committed especially again as we head into these next elections and look forward to how we can have faith in our democracy.

Now I have no idea who Gabbard voted for in the last election, although I would have to assume it wasn’t Donald Trump. She threw her hat into the ring to replace him, and has not been especially complimentary towards him over the years.

But in this segment she was doing pure truth telling. The real misinformation in both the 2016 and 2020 elections came from Democrats who in 2016 spread lies about Trump through the Steele Dossier, and from the FBI and the “Intelligence Community” (which is neither) in 2020.

In 2017 Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer warned that Donald Trump was really dumb to attack the intelligence community because they know how to get revenge. I don’t often agree with Schumer, but he was prescient in this case.

“Let me tell you, you take on the intelligence community, they have six ways from Sunday at getting back at you,” Schumer told MSNBC’s Rachel Maddow.

“So even for a practical, supposedly hard-nosed businessman, he’s being really dumb to do this.”

“Russia, Russia, Russia” was always more about spreading misinformation that originated with Donald Trump’s enemies here in the US. Russia is just too awful at spreading propaganda to seriously manipulate our elections.

But the Democrats and the IC are another matter. They have the connections and know how to use them. They are a real threat to democracy.
