So you’re going to equate siding with Tulsi as Kool-Aid on the liberal side? No, think with your brain. Tulsi is anti-America let alone anti-democracy just like Trump and I’m an independent and I don’t subscribe to any Kool-Aid. Thinking critically here is necessary.
Please spare us the immature name calling. This comment reflects YOUR own lack of critical thinking, and, instead ,the robotic, lock step national DNC party politics. They need reform before they gain a strong national footing and if you care about the party you will use this opportunity to grow up a bit. Right now what you're voicing is a huge turn off to most well adjusted people. I'm glad I stepped away from the Dems at the national level - this garbage is too much for most people to swallow.
What name calling? If you can’t critically think about Tulsi and what she does to this country, and rather equate it to drinking Kool-Aid of either side? It’s missing the entire point.
I’m independent oh Triggered one. Anyone thinking Tulsi is an acceptable choice is out of their damn mind and has no capability to think critically. What your comment says is that rather drink the DNC kool-aid, you’re preferring the maga kool-aid. Good luck with that. lol
I’ll take Democrats as F’d up as they are, over Nazi lovers any day. BTW If my party had elected Bernie this would be ann amazing place you’d be proud to live in, instead of the Techno-Feudal world we are embarking on.
And as for democracy, it appears nobody is more anti-democracy than the current Democratic Party leadership, which has censored anyone who criticizes the status quo.
I guess you have not been paying attention to her visits with Russian leaders. All you have to do to realize who she is now is to see what she’s done the last 5 years. There’s a REASON Trump wants her in.
Not true, Gabbard is very pro America, and was open and accessible to her Hawaii constituents, traveling to all islands and districts, having town hall meetings where we questioned and got input on policy. I don't recall other representatives doing anything like that where you actually get written responses applicable to our questions and statements. She should have run for governor instead of president, too big a jump too soon. Being marginalized by the Dems., I hope she saw an inroad via Fox news as a way to change America's war/aggression from the inside. I assume she is with Trump because he saw her as someone who could bring him support. She has never been pro war, she is very real about the tragedy of war, having served her country in Iraq and Afghanistan. In response to her constituents in Hawaii, she also introduced the bill to label where foods are from and whether they are GMO. No, I did not nor would have considered voting for Trump, but having the Democrats gut every rational peace candidate that came down the line from McGovern (yes, I worked on his campaign before I could vote), and Jessie Jackson, and Kuccinich, and Nadar, and Sanders- I voted Green for president this time, and no, that didn't elect Trump because the majority vote in Hawaii was Kamala
Let’s put it this way. I’ve been following Tulsi since she was a progressive and friend of Bernie’s. She’s done a complete 180 and that’s why Trump picked her. Also a friend of Putin. Maybe you should do some research.
In Hawaii, Gabbard remained true to her antiwar position and open to reaching out to other's in Congress, and acting on her constituents concerns, unlike the other dems representing Hawaii (Jill Tokuda is the exception, making Hawaii the first state to demand a cease fire, a human with a conscience)
I’ve come to believe that “worms” in the brain and/or plastics is the causation. I used to love JFK Jr., as well. Now I suffer trauma from being played by sociopathic personalities like Dennis.
Dennis you were never a conformist and I'm glad to see this endorsement. The Dems need to reorganize and figure out who they really are - a corporatist, Deep State party or a party for the people? Happily partner with waterboarding Dick and Liz Cheney? Not for me thank you. I voted Green Party this time and won't go back until I see sincere candidates who aren't sellouts to the military industrial complex, Big Pharma and Big Food. In the meantime I will be happy if Tulsi and RFK Jr. are appointed and start to introduce some transparency into the system. THEN we will have some progress no matter what you think of the rest of the Trump Admin,
I agree with you except for the part about going back to the Dems. One of the goals of the Greens was to break the duopoly. "Sincere candidates" always get beaten into submission. AOC is a prime example. And the list of people who once hated Trump, but now find themselves in complete fealty to him.
AOC has not been beaten into submission. You must not be paying attention. She and the other younger ones are bringing the party back from the precipice.
You voted for the Green Party, so thanks for Donald Trump. BTW in any advanced economy, corporations are not only going to have a seat at the table, they have a right to have one, alongside unions, interest groups, etc. I'll agree that they currently have an outsized influence, but to say they should have none is not only naive, it's inherently undemocratic.
Thank you Dennis for your extraordinary wisdom and clarity! It breaks my heart to see the unfounded attacks on Gabbard who was the best of the Democratic contenders who lost to genocide Joe who picked the least supported Harris in those debates as his partner in crime and designated successor!! It would be such a great thing for America if Tulsi is guarding the deep state intelligence swamp that is cooking up forever wars!!
Thank you Dennis. You are expressing the sentiment of a majority of American citizens. We frequently see opposition from Operation Mockingbird brainwashed commentors..., regurgitating idiotic tropes and falsehoods, implanted by the mainstream media. Fortunately, this tool of the deep state is dying rapidly and the truth is being presented through alternative media.
What you’re doing is not speaking from a moral compass, but from a place of allegiance. That’s all you care about is allegiance that you are talking about here. Tulsi Gabbard is not fit to serve anywhere in the US government.
My friend, you are simply projecting truths about yourself. There's a big difference between critcizing a largely soulless Dem Party and embracing a fully fascist party run totally by lunatics and cold as stone opportunists who are so desperate for power and recognition again that they will sell their priinciples to a fascist beast and flush humanity down the drain .
Anyone thinking that Trump is appointing decent people has their head in the sand. He has made it clear, that everyone serving for him must be completely devoted, loyal to him and not the constitution.
From the other comments I see I'm not the only one wondering when Rep. Kucinich lost his mind, his vision, and his moral compass. One of the greatest disappointments in all the years I've been invested in politics. I'm retrospectively so glad he didn't win when he ran for president.
You want to talk losing mind, vision, and moral compass?
How about the millions of voters who supported Genocide Joe, Killer Kamala, and Butcher Blinken as they armed and funded a brutal ethnic cleansing in Gaza?
How about voting for Trumpbwho totally supports the genocide and who has made a deal with Bibii to fuck over the Palestinians again by surrendering large portions of their remaing land to Israel, if not all of it? And who is acwar mongering, climate-change denying, racist, anti-science fascist lunatic fully beholdened to Christian millenialists who pray for nuclear war to come?
Where in my comment did you pull that I in any way supported Trump, or his voters? Out of your ass?
This is about Blue Maga’s completely hypocritical tribal response to all things Trump. Who would these bozos support for DNI, another swamp monster like one of the 51 empire simps who signed the Hunter Biden laptop letter? Or another clueless warmongering partisan hack like Marco Rubio?
A pox on both tribal houses. The irrational response to this letter just shows how stupidly siloed people have become.
I can’t hold a candle to Linda’s breadth of knowledge, but more so her patience in dispensing it to people who most likely long ago lost the curiosity to be willing to examine their propagandized belief systems, when information is presented that runs counter to the siloed narrative.
Exactly. I wrote in my dog, but I'm so glad that Genocide Joe, Killer Kamala and Butcher Blinken are gone. I just worry about Deep State's control of the Senate. The best of Trump's nominees could wind up defeated by Deep State.
A long time Kucinich supporter and supporter of peace, I find this endorsement surprising. While we need a radical approach to peace that makes war less likely, we need leadership that will makes this happen. she is not that leadership.
I'm a UK Citizen, so this report doesn't mean as much to me, but I am fully in agreement with Dennis, that Tulsi is UNIQUELY qualified for that position, and very much deserves the chance to prove it.
Although I live in the UK, what happens in the USA, usually has an impact on things in the UK too.
Clearly, there are a lot of either people with severe TDS or else paid Deep State shills posting comments. I am very proud of Dennis and everyone I know who is truly on the left sees through the DNC BS. I don't agree with Tulsi on some things, but she and RFK are the best of the nominees and they need to be confirmed if the people are to be protected from Deep State. I have no doubt that anyone who genuinly supported Dennis in 2004 and 2008 is still proud of his continuing insights and compassion for the American people.
Dennis thanks for speaking out on behalf of the country. You remind us why we have the position DNI, created in 2004 in an attempt to stop the corruption within our intelligence bureaucracy which led to the Iraq war, a sin of horrific consequences. We need a true patriot here in this office. We need a person who understands and supports our values set forth in our Bill of Rights, respects the roles of the Congress and Administration and above all the absolute necessity of non manipulated intelligence. Tulsi is this person.
You come a long way, and the wrong way, toward fascism. Apparently, you are so desperate to get back into the game that you are willing to sell your soull, just like Tulsu did.
What happened to you Dennis Kucinich?? Tulsi Gabbard’s support of a Syrian dictator-murderer makes her not only unfit but a danger to this country. Shame on you for supporting her and others of trump’s cabal.
I worked for Dennis in his last Presidential campaign. This is not the man I admired and supported. I cannot fathom how Dennis is now endorsing someone who is a Trump supporter and gives credence to the whole crazy "Deep State" nonsense. It's beyond sad.
I worked on both of Dennis's Presidential campaigns (2004 and 2008) and I'm proud of his choice of people to endorse. He remains true to the values he has stood for throughout his career. So far, Dennis has been correct in all his positions and we need him back in office.
Though I don't particularly care for Trump and I am especially concerned about his positions on Venezuela and Israel, I feel that TDS is the most serious disease that has ever afflicted Americans and those who let it control their thinking need serious help. They should run, not walk, to the nearest doctor.
Deep State is real. I'm a lifelong Democrat and a criminal defense attorney, and I've been so shocked by the fall of the Democratic Party and its destruction of our society and of the criminal justice system and the clear hatred by the Democratic Party of the U.S. Constitution and Bill of Rights. Tulsi will likely restore order and fundamental fairness to the USA and save the country from partisan insanity. She and RFK need to both be confirmed and anyone opposing theri nomination in the Senate needs to be voted out of office.
WHAT?!?!?! You are out of your mind! What happened to your common sense? Holy moly -- you have lost all credibility with me as of now. Wow. You are 100% WRONG about this.
What happened to Dennis? Please bring him back.
He simply is no longer drinking the tribalism koolaid.
Anyone supporting Tulsi Gabbard is drinking the Trump Kool-Aid.
and what about the DNC/corporate sell out Kool-Aid? I stopped drinking THAT 4 years ago
So you’re going to equate siding with Tulsi as Kool-Aid on the liberal side? No, think with your brain. Tulsi is anti-America let alone anti-democracy just like Trump and I’m an independent and I don’t subscribe to any Kool-Aid. Thinking critically here is necessary.

"Tulsi is anti-America let alone anti-democracy" accusations that are so vague as to be unfalsifable.
Just stop. There is not a single politician who takes corporate funding who is not ‘anti-America/anti-democracy’.
You are the one who needs to drop the accusatory flatulence and put the critical thinking cap on.
You bring up corporate funding in defense of an appointee by Donald Trump?
How can you call Tulsi anti-American?!
And as for democracy, it appears nobody is more anti-democracy than the current Democratic Party leadership, which has censored anyone who criticizes the status quo.
I guess you have not been paying attention to her visits with Russian leaders. All you have to do to realize who she is now is to see what she’s done the last 5 years. There’s a REASON Trump wants her in.
Thanks derp state bot.💩
Memo: Trump won by a
landslide! 😄🇺🇸
Hardly. I didn't vote for Trump in 2016, not in 2020, not in 2024..
uh huh
Because only trumpets could possibly oppose the National Security State, is it?
Why be a dope? Some of us vote for democracy.
If you know anything about Tulsi Gabbard, you would know that she is anti-democracy
And how do you know how anti-democratic she is? What are your sources?
You don't convince liberals with proof, they are for above all that sort of thing so expecting sensible from them is stooopid.
see above, she's very pro democracy) and I respect her greatly. Of course I could be surprised, but I don't think so.
Not true, Gabbard is very pro America, and was open and accessible to her Hawaii constituents, traveling to all islands and districts, having town hall meetings where we questioned and got input on policy. I don't recall other representatives doing anything like that where you actually get written responses applicable to our questions and statements.

Where can I get more?
Is it Biblical?
To think I was once fired essentially for having a Kucinich bumper sticker. How things change.
I’ve come to believe that “worms” in the brain and/or plastics is the causation. I used to love JFK Jr., as well. Now I suffer trauma from being played by sociopathic personalities like Dennis.
Is he out of his mind?
He's desperate, just like Tulsi. I used to admire both of them. Criticizing the Dems is totally fine. Supporting fascism is never ok, however.
Are you out of your mind?
Dennis you were never a conformist and I'm glad to see this endorsement. The Dems need to reorganize and figure out who they really are - a corporatist, Deep State party or a party for the people? Happily partner with waterboarding Dick and Liz Cheney? Not for me thank you.

I'd share a foxhole with Tulsi anytime. 82nd Airborne Vet.

Gabbard switched loyalties & I’m guessing between intelligence agencies.

Yep. Schumer spilled the beans when he warned Trump about the ‘intelligence’ agencies.

Oh No!! Good bye.
Thank you Mr. Kucinich! You speak the truth. Funny to see the negative posts--clearly they're unethical paid shills or bots!
Clearly, there are a lot of either people with severe TDS or else paid Deep State shills posting comments.

They’re just members of Blue-Anon.
Also an ohio voter here.

This does not have the ring of truth. Tulsi is an opportunistic waif.
