Tulsi Gabbard is a shitty person and an opportunist but if she actually undermined the effectiveness of the intelligence community (which remains to be seen), it’d be a good thing. Like, oh no, what if they get mismanaged to the point where they can’t infiltrate leftist groups or coup governments? What if they don’t assassinate Assad and create a power vacuum for a group like ISIS to take over? The horror!
People have such bizarre, incomprehensible politics. “Trump is a fascist, but it’s super important that we make sure he has a highly effective spy network.” What? It boggles my mind that even in “normal” times, people care about the effectiveness of organizations that are illegally spying on all of us and which have brought chaos and war to every corner of the globe.
Yeah, I’d hate to burst your bubble, but they’re only going to be less effective against right-wing organizations. If anything left-wing groups have more to fear, nor less.
I know, anything western is bad in your opinion, but they are trying to strengthen right-wing authoritarianism. Whatever you claim to believe in is going to suffer from it, though I don’t want to accuse you of being honest with your claims.
You’re trying to pick a fight with me for some reason, but nothing you said contradicts anything I said, but does contradict the article’s position. You’re saying that the agencies will be just as competent, but wrongly directed under Trump, which I completely agree with. The article is saying that they won’t be competently run, which is only a problem because of the assumption that their objectives would be good things. If that assumption isn’t true (it isn’t) and the things they’re trying to do are bad, then it would obviously be better if they persued those objectives ineffectively, and the article would make no sense.
Not the intelligence community 😢

Anarcho-CIAism, not even once.
