Call your Senators to vote NO on Gabbard's nomination!

In the coming days, the Senate will hold confirmation hearings for the position of Director of National Intelligence. The current nominee, Tulsi Gabbard, has a disturbing record of parroting Russian propaganda, meeting with America’s enemies (Syria’s Assad), and advocating for Ukraine to settle with Russia and agree to be neutral. There is a great article by even the conservative National Review about why she is uniquely unqualified. 

Gabbard’s chances of getting confirmed currently stand about 50/50. Four Republicans are needed to stop her nomination. Previously three Republicans voted no on Hegseth’s nomination, so just one more is needed here.

We ask that you call your Senators, and ask them to vote NO on confirming Gabbard. This is especially critical if you live in these states for the following Senators:

Texas, Cornyn - 202-224-2934
Maine, Collins - 202-224-2523
Alaska, Murkowski - 202-224-6665
South Dakota, Rounds - 202-224-5842
Oklahoma, Lankford - 202-224-5754

Below is a sample script. Feel free to add details, such as why this issue is important to you. You can use this script for both speaking with a staffer or leaving a voicemail.

My name is [your name] and I live in [city, state]. In the upcoming days the Senator will be considering the nomination of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence. For the sake of American national security I ask that the Senator votes No. Gabbard has consistently sympathized with American enemies and traitors, met with Syria’s Assad, and encouraged Ukraine to effectively surrender to Russia. She is not fit for this role and would endanger America’s interests. Thank you.

He should be thankful they are not being flown upside down

At a time when a highly esteemed President and human being has recently passed and there is a catastrophic wildfire threatening thousands of residents, #47 is whining about this ??? Wow. Just wow.
