Tommy Tuberville on Weaponization Fund: The people that are complaining did not hesitate one time to send hundreds of billions of dollars to Ukraine. But they are complaining about a billion and a half dollars for this? It does not make sense to me.

President Trump is working at 8:00 PM. Can’t stop, won’t stop.

Full disclosure. I beg any of you people who keep calling me violent, and an insurrectionist to find one picture of me violent. I’ll even give you some money from the fund. 😊 I wasn’t violent. I entered the Capitol to escape the chaos outside. I spoke calmly with multiple officers inside and left peacefully on my own. They charged me with 4 misdemeanors and threatened me with RICO. I pled to “parading” and signed a deal for probation and a fine. Two weeks later, while my son was in the ICU (and they knew this by the way) they changed it to: 2 weeks in federal prison, 3 years probation, a fine, 50 hours community service, a court-ordered psychiatric evaluation, and mandatory drug testing. All for parading. All to crush me. Law enforcement officers and lawyers have told me I was severely overcharged. People who were screaming, disrupting Senate hearings, and breaking into chambers got summary offenses far less than what I received. We deserve case-by-case justice, not being lumped together. What happened to many of us was wrong.

My thoughts go out to Tulsi Gabbard and her family, as her husband battles this serious health problem. I hope and pray that he makes a speedy and full recovery. While the circumstances around her departure are deserving of our sympathy, let’s be clear: Tulsi Gabbard’s only positive contribution to our nation's national security is her resignation. She politicized intelligence. She dismantled critical agencies keeping Americans safe. She weaponized the IC to pursue baseless election fraud claims. And more. We must ensure that her tenure — marked by a devotion to the person of the president and not to the security of the country — represents a terrible exception at DNI and not the new normal.
