Should Tulsi Gabbard Now Be Crowned the Reigning Queen of “Liar Liar Pants on Fire”? What She Said—and What the CIA Says She Got Totally Wrong
Is Tulsi Gabbard lighting political fires with gasoline lies? Or is she the victim of a deep-state smear? Either way, her latest explosive claims about a “treasonous conspiracy” to take down Trump are turning heads—and not for the reasons she may have hoped.
The Spark That Lit the Fire
In today’s political circus, it’s getting harder to tell the ringmasters from the clowns. Former congresswoman and current Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just dropped a bombshell—alleging that the 2017 intelligence report tying Russia to Trump’s election was nothing more than “manufactured intelligence.”
But now, a former CIA officer who helped write that report is calling her bluff, labeling Gabbard’s version of events exactly what they are: lies.
The Claims: Treason or Tall Tale?
Gabbard’s claim lit up Fox News on July 20, where she called for the prosecution of Obama-era officials, accusing them of launching a “treasonous conspiracy” against Trump. She said they created a fake intelligence report that contradicted earlier assessments and made it look like Russia helped Trump win.
In her version of reality, this was a planned political coup—engineered from within the U.S. government itself.
The Facts Strike Back
But then came Susan Miller. A retired CIA officer who helped oversee the very 2017 intelligence assessment Gabbard’s targeting, Miller told NBC News: “The director of national intelligence and the White House are lying, again.”
She confirmed that the intel showed—with high confidence—that Russia wanted Trump to win. There was no two-way collusion, but yes, Russia worked to help Trump through disinformation and hacked email dumps.
The facts? Backed by years of investigations. Gabbard’s claim? Built on sand.
So... Why Lie?
Gabbard isn’t just wrong—she’s playing a dangerous game. Her allegations aren’t just a political opinion. They fly in the face of exhaustive reports from the Mueller investigation, the bipartisan Senate Intelligence Committee, and even Trump’s own Justice Department.
All of them agreed: Russia interfered. Russia favored Trump. The intelligence was sound. The only thing that’s changed now is the storyteller.
The Strange Twist
Gabbard references a 2020 Republican-led House Intelligence Committee report to back her claim. But she conveniently ignores the Senate Intelligence Committee's broader findings—also led by Republicans—which confirmed Russian interference and praised the 2017 intelligence report.
It’s like she read one footnote of a 1,000-page book—and decided to rewrite the entire plot.
What’s Really at Stake?
Is Gabbard auditioning for MAGA royalty? Her echo of Trump’s “deep state” narrative is loud and clear. But if her claims gain traction, they could normalize a dangerous precedent: facts don’t matter as long as fiction fuels your fanbase.
Once respected as a maverick truth-teller, Gabbard now seems to be torching the truth for political points.
Crowning the Queen of Misinformation?
Let’s be clear: nobody is above scrutiny—not Obama, not Trump, not Gabbard. But when every credible investigation points in one direction, and a single political appointee insists on the opposite without evidence—it’s time to call it what it is.
And in this case, “Liar, liar, pants on fire” fits like a custom-made crown.
The Takeaway
So, should Tulsi Gabbard now be crowned the reigning queen of “Liar Liar Pants on Fire”? That depends on whether we, the public, continue rewarding political figures who trade facts for headlines. One thing is certain—if her story was meant to distract, it worked.
But facts don’t lie. And eventually, neither can the people who keep ignoring them.
