    I heard the FBI has a file on Tulsi Gabbard and her activities with Russia et al. Biden could declassify that report to tank her becoming DNI. Mentioned on the “Hacks on Tap” podcast from yesterday, so this isn’t just some social media conspiracy theory, it comes from plugged in politicos. Biden won’t, but he could.

      What so far leads you to believe that a Republican-controlled senate is going to reject a Trump appointment no matter what is released? Sure, it would be great if Biden did this, but at this point I’m convinced this would be the effect:

      Anyone not a Trump supporter: Yeah! Score one for the good guys! She’ll never be confirmed now!

      Republican Senate: Appointment confirmed!

      Trump Supporters: Cool, now on to Dr. Oz!

        That would be awesome. Publish what the FBI found about Trump taking 10 million in cash from Egypt, Jeffrey Epstein’s client list, and all the other bullshit we don’t even know about.

        I wish we lived in a timeline where he’d consider doing something so great.
