Former Democrat congresswoman and presidential candidate Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) said Tuesday that former CIA Director John O. Brennan, Congressman Adam Schiff (D-CA), and Silicon Valley tech monopolies are a bigger threat to America that the rioters that stormed the Capitol on January 6th.
The mob who stormed the capitol to try to stop Congress from carrying out its constitutional responsibilities were behaving like domestic enemies of our country. But let us be clear, the John Brennan's, Adam Schiffs and the oligarchs in Big Tech who are… pic.twitter.com/Q3VssCiz5l

President Biden, I call upon you & all of Congress from both parties to denounce efforts by Brennan & others to take away our civil liberties endowed to us by our Creator & guaranteed in our Constitution. If you don’t stand up to them now, then our country will be in great peril.

Gabbard was NOT defending the people that stormed the Capitol. What she was saying was that a bunch of widely condemned incompetents breaking into Congress and taking selfies while they milled around is a lot less of a threat than a government/tech oligarchy-run police state advocated by powerful people like John Brennan and Adam Schiff.
Look at where things have gone since Joe Biden arrived in office. Troops being kept in DC, mainly for the purpose of optics. Liberals calling for more surveillance and for targeting Trump supporters any way they can. Big tech company purges and a seemingly coordinated move to destroy their competition at Parler.
The question is not whether they are going to try to label you a threat and take your rights away, it’s how much of it will they be able to get away with doing. Gabbard realizes this and is speaking out. More people should be joining her, because in a sense, what you are seeing is an attempt to codify what happened in the 2016 election, but for the whole population. Back then, they targeted the Trump campaign. Now, they want to move to targeting his supporters. Maybe you won’t be able to get a job or use a bank because you strongly supported Donald Trump. Maybe you won’t be able to get a security clearance to work for the government because you’re a conservative. If they could get away with this kind of thing, they’d implement it tomorrow. Tulsi Gabbard is sounding the warning. More prominent voices should join her.
