Running a torture program isn't disqualifying for D.C. elites; quite the opposite. Remember that as you hear their indignant shrieks this week.
President-elect Donald Trump recently named veteran and former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard to be his director of national intelligence. Predictably, Washington's warmongers are apoplectic.'Why not cut out the middlewoman and just name Putin as director of national intelligence?' fumed David Frum, former speechwriter for George W. Bush who coined the phrase 'Axis of Evil' used to push Americans into endorsing the Iraq War.
This helps explain why Gabbard elicits a seething hatred from people like Frum, Clinton, and Nichols. They're part of Washington's sprawling, nearly-always unelected foreign policy ecosystem that feeds and thrives off of war. This system, like all organisms, is above all else motivated by self-preservation. Tulsi Gabbard, a lieutenant colonel and combat veteran with 20-plus years of service, speaks out against war from experience.
