I’m going to post this article here without comment - - ABOUT THE INFORMATION AND CONTENTS OF THE ARTICLE ITSELF*. It’s a compilation of Hawaii based reporting and the Washington Post exposé this week.
Nothing new if you’re been paying attention, except now with 25,000 pages of written documentation detailing her actions and instructions.
Be careful who you vote for. Much of this was known long before her election as our Hawaii rep. Hiding? Or in plain sight?
If somebody has to explain how actions or words are the opposite of what you can see with your own eyes and hear with your own ears, if they need to repeatedly convince you that the hoof beats in the distance are more likely zebras than horses, you’re probably being bamboozled.
* Better? I believed it was self evident, but then nothing else is, so my mistake.

That nothing burger article is largely about Mike Gabard, who happens to actually be in Hawaii government at this time. Why not focus on him?
Seems kinda weird to just pick on the daughter who isn't even in government anymore and who was drug into this religious organization as a child, by her father, Mike Gabbard, who is actually in government at this time and who is responsible for Tulsi having ever become involved with the organization in the first place. Kids get drug to church by their parents. It's normal.
Every politician has people emailing them with opinions on what they should do or feedback about their "performances" (which is what they are). Lots of Socialists/Communists sending those emails these days. I get emails with all kinds of unwanted ideas about what I should do. Most people do. It's normal.
The big new revelations on the WP article are from a disgruntled former employee who changed her whole story after she got arrested for housing a teenage runaway. Cringe.
a disgruntled former employee who changed her whole story
There were multiple sources. The main source did not recant. The emphasis of the story is that Gabbard was manipulated, instructed, and acted on the guidance of Butler in Hawaii as our Rep for Puna and rural Hawaii, and in her very recent government role. WP-
The source, Rebecca Saltzburg (a former digital strategist for Gabbard's campaigns and former member of the Science of Identity Foundation) provided thousands of confidential memos and emails to the paper. While she expressed regret for her role in the organization at the time, she stood by her disclosures, stating she felt people deserved to know about the extensive political direction Gabbard received.Gabbard and her associates did not directly answer the paper's questions, but a spokesperson for the Science of Identity Foundation attacked Saltzburg’s credibility and characterized the reporting as religious bigotry. Meanwhile, another associate of Gabbard and Butler (Sunil Khemaney) disputed the origin of the memos, claiming he or Gabbard's father—rather than Chris Butler—wrote most of the guidance.

OMG, brother 'Tang.. are you really going to carry water for all that.. going down that rabbit hole? The actual, the real, WP article in all its jailbroken glory is here. And brah, I would love it if you would read the whole thing.. every last morsel of it.. and see if you can still stand by all that it's about Mike drivel.
Yeah, 'Tang, I said drivel. You know, nonsense, claptrap, balderdash, gibberish, mumbo jumbo. The chick is a whack job. A flaming twisting in the wind changes her mind her stance her fucking hair color based on whoever is rubbing her just so. And dude, besides that orangutang you worship, Chris Butler's the one been doing all the talking.. rubbing.. and omg it feels so good! She did everything he asked.
Tulsi, is a basket case. Read the frickin' article..
Or better yet.. just feast your eyes, and your dreams.. on da pics..

But one way or the other, recognize your bucket has a leak in it. A big leak, brah.
I'd say at this point, Tulsi's political capital has been totally exhausted. In as much as her official departure reason was to care for her ailing husband, whom I hope lives a long long amount of time more, I don't see Tulsi as relevant in any walk of political life.
Good riddance to grossly inept, incompetent rubbish.
It's showbiz folks. Her ability to get all of your BVDs in a bunch where you still start threads, post pervy pictures (no hole in your bucket head), and say hateful things, guarantees her relevance for years to come. You make her relevant. Showbiz is funny that way. At least you are useful.
Is the thinking that politicians should be born fully formed and never change their stance on anything regardless of what has changed around them or what new information has come to light? Seems like that's what you all crave and need. No wonder things are so screwed up. How many elections do you have left?
The best part is that if she writes a tell all and throws The Orange He'e under the bus, you will all love her again. The show must go on.

No.
The thinking is that a government representative should study a problem, research it, and come to a reasonable conclusion. Then act on it.
Not do what some guy, on Kauai tells them to do, without any of the above.
Pay attention to the man behind the curtain. Don’t pretend he doesn’t exist.

My guess is she will write a book. She will throw orange marmalade under the bus. Which, when she does, will prove exactly what HOTPE and I are saying all along.
