That she would call the President asking him to address the agents suggests they may have balked at their orders and wouldn't take her word on the matter. He avoids giving instructions but gives the agents some praise and encouragement to blah blah blah be patriots and make america great again. This is insane and it needs to be widely exposed and litigated. In addition we need much more direct action resistance. We need sympathetic hackers, leakers and creative non-violent tricksters moving to gum up the machinations of ICE, FBI, NSA etc etc etc. See 'Boston Tea Party' or Edward Abbey's novel 'The Monkey Wrench Gang."
It scares me to death what this regime is doing to undermine a republic that has lasted almost 250 years. They invented fake news to use against anything they don't want to hear, and now they use it to disregard litigated outcomes again and again! All the men and women that paid the ultimate price for this country are turning over in their graves. It's a sad state of affairs!
Just as this country should not be in 'constant campaign mode', neither should it be in 'constant investigative mode' over elections. There needs to be a sunset on this activity. The 2020 (for heavens sake) election is a moot point since there has been another presidential election since then and the one who's spawning all of the investigative whingeing won anyway. What's the point? Beating a dead horse will not make it rise up again.
He needs to get used to it though. People are getting tired of the criminality, chaos, murder and lies that won't keep him afloat forever. Even some of his faithful are losing patience.
There's a lot that he needs to do and not do. But those decisions are made by intelligent, caring and humble civil servants. Something he never was and never will be.
Mr. O'Neill, I deeply appreciate your insights & seeing your byline gets an instant read from me! I always worry, though, that your experienced, intelligent future view of what would be next might inadvertently provide 'them' with ideas they had not thought of yet. Gabbard showing up here is truly alarming and your analysis just put 6 exclamation points after 'alarming'.
Besides the erosion of government institutions during this godforsaken administration, what this spells is the same old, same old: trump cannot tolerate losing, cannot tolerate being wrong, cannot tolerate anyone going against him. How "dare" Georgia not give him the 2020 "votes" he asked for?!?

She had a meeting with Bashar Al Assad of Syria when she was in the service. I don’t trust this woman any further than I can see her.
How do states keep the FBI from seizing voting records in November 2026, like they did in Fulton County, Georgia?
Thank you Professor O'Neill.

He cannot tolerate being wrong and being a loser.

Love your analysis Brian O'Neill
It is amazing how many people in trumps administration are so painfully incompetent.
Yes, the band-aid has been ripped off and it hurts but the wounds will heal overtime.
