You wanted Gabbard gone because she's a woman.
I wanted her gone because she's a moron.
We are not the same.
I'll take it, though.

I want all the compromat puppets gone.
we are not the same
She isn't getting the boot. She is stepping down to help her husband with his bone cancer
"Tulsi, we need you to step aside. You can do it yourself, use any excuse you want, or we can do it for you."
I’d say good riddance but who knows what sort of creep they’ll put in there. That said, this lives in my brain whenever I hear her name, as does that they had to cover Caesar’s face so she wouldn’t leak his identity:
In the summer of 2015, three Syrian girls who had narrowly survived an airstrike some weeks earlier stood before Tulsi Gabbard with horrific burns all over their bodies.
Gabbard, then a US congresswoman on a visit to the Syria-Turkey border as part of her duties for the foreign affairs committee, had a question for them.
“How do you know it was Bashar al-Assad or Russia that bombed you, and not Isis?’” she asked, according to Mouaz Moustafa, a Syrian activist who was translating her conversation with the girls.
It was a revealing insight into Gabbard’s conspiratorial views of the conflict, and it shocked Moustafa to silence. He knew, as even the young children did, that Isis did not have jets to launch airstrikes. It was such an absurd question that he chose not to translate it because he didn’t want to upset the girls, the eldest of whom was 12.
“From that point on, I’m sorry to say I was inaccurate in my translations of anything she said,” Moustafa told The Independent. “It was more like: How do I get these girls away from this devil?”
The like one good idea she had is that she opposed war with Iran but her voice clearly lost out against the likes of Bibi and Lindsey Graham.

Emerging reports about a new sign installed at the whitehouse
Is this a club for women haters of He Man, or haters of He Man Women?
She-ra knows what she did
Or what she didn't do
Convenient scapegoats so the admin media puppets can blame the past two years of failures on women
No big surprise that women don't last in MAGA world. I wonder how long Erika Kirk can hang on?
And another person in Trump's cabinet learns that even if you are 1000% loyal to Trump, he has loyalty to no one.
A win is a win. Adios. Not soon enough.
