Heard her and Mark Walker here in Greensboro NC last Friday night. She is the real deal. She is articulate, honest, loyal, determined and she has a gift

[@teotwawki00]

I think Tulsi is getting reformed. She saw the errors of her party and remembered her military background and woke up. I'm excited to see how she continues to grow. She's on the cooler side now. No labels just the constitution.

This was an amazing podcast, loved listening to Tulsi and her time in Congress.

Hell yeah, Tulsi is awesome. Thank you for a great podcast 👍🏻👍🏻

[@theyodaiam6964]

While I disagree with a lot of her politics, I do appreciate the fact that she has always been willing to have a conversation and that when she left the Dems she went Independent and didn’t try to pull the whole “I’m a conservative now” BS that a lot of them do.

[@TheFirstBubbaBong]

I didn't hear the question about her ties to Klaus Schwab and the Young Leaders Club. I really would like her to defend her stance on this fact as all of those people that were part of his school have been put in high positions and are pushing a globalist agenda now.

[@aauwhatitdo1582]

Yeah. A lot of what she says gives me really weird feelings. She seems like she is changing views to get votes like around guns where she was anti-gun and now, she is pro-gun suddenly. Her comments on the Russia also really weird me out a bit.

[@andrews2990]

@@aauwhatitdo1582 She’s had something of a complete lifestyle change with her new job in the army and the people she spends most of her time with. It would make sense that some of that rubbed off on her.

[@aauwhatitdo1582]

@@andrews2990 She's a Lieutenant Colonel in the army. It isn't a lifestyle change or a new job. She's been in since 2003 first as enlisted 03-07 and then did OCS and got a Officer commish in 07', almost exactly what I did lol. She has been changing views constantly since getting involved in politics after the 9/11 attacks. Not just on fringe issues where change is natural for a free thinker, rather on very core ideological issues. She advocated as a member of PACs ran by her father that advocated on a very strict ban on same-sex marriage and advocated for regime change, things she is now vehemently against.

I wonder if we can get Tulsi to push the Major Richard Star act for retired combat vets. The bill is ranked number 5 in congress and is a bipartisan bill. It will allow combat vets who are medically retired under 20 with combat injuries to collect both VA and retirement.

I’m glad Tulsi brought up what happened in the gun confiscation during Katrina. I saw that and never knew the outcome, so thank you Tulsi for you going into that info. That always bothered me. There is not enough room under comments to tell you all the reasons I wish Tulsi was in the White House. This is a remarkable person and remarkable woman. She is a patriot and wants what’s best for the country. How many politicians can you say that applies to?

[@bthemedia]

Agree she stands up and is independent to check the authoritarian leaders… but hope she becomes pro-2A and not just neutral / former anti-2A. It’s a big deal to “honor your oath” and its still sad and cringe to see people say that while being anti-2A!

[@michaelnewell6385]

@@bthemedia I have always heard her speak for the second amendment.

[@michaelkearney3646]

I first got interested in her because of military background (I'm a Vietnam veteran), which is frankly rare overall in the corridors of power in Washington. Since then, I become a fan because Tulsi is an smart, independent voice. I hope she can get an increasing visibility in our national policy discussions. However, given the corruption in both parties, the uniparty in DC has a lot of resources, unfortunately. She was right on Hilary, a neocon who bought into forever wars, sending the young to get slaughtered (though her husband dodged his chance). No one who saw combat, how idiosyncratic it is, where death is sudden and brutal.

[@TangoOscarMikeN3WS]

Such honesty. I hate how corrupt our government representatives have gotten. They all need to stop towing the line and working for the people. Really good episode.

[@newbes6491]

Great interview! The only thing I'm not happy with is; this should be what every interview looks like across the spectrum and it's not. Thank you for having a civilized normal...should be everyday conversation. Love you guys and Tulsi 2024!

Yea this is my first time here and I was thinking the same thing. Lighting is really bad and the camera angles are uncomfortable. Like when they focus on the guest, I still see the host’s head in the picture. Very annoying.

[@UDPride]

I have my differences w/Tulsi on many issues, but she is one of the few who is always willing to trade intel and let the best ideas win the day regardless of party or favor. I respect that and this country needs more of that. There really is middle ground where opposing sides can still be respectful and kind and talk through issues to find solutions.

I'm starting to come around to Mrs. Gabbard. I can honestly say that I could vote for her.

Look, I really like that they have a conversation with Tulsi but I wish they would take her to task and ask some harder questions, I do think its refreshing for her to call out other Dems BS, but I think someone from a conservative standpoint should call out hers and really let us know where they stand. I see her rejecting the Dems as a good thing, but I'm still not totally on board with her thinking just yet.

I love how Tulsi leans forward into the conversation, even in such close quarters, and speaks straight from the heart, unafraid to engage as an equal. I think this air of confidence must trace partially back to her independence from having been homeschooled, having trained in martial arts, and having served as a military leader.

yes, she has been anti-2A (no AR-15s, no private sales/transfer/ forced gun registry/no “hold my guns” suicide protection, red flags no due process). Seems she is neutral or less anti-2A now? Will wait and see… baby steps.

[@silly_willi]

TL;DR across the DoD, the government as a whole, and private sector, all of these issues that are addressed in this podcast prevail in all facets of our nation. Poor leaders and poor leadership decisions have existed for decades now and I for one 100% agree that change needs to occur across the board and SHOULD have begun decades ago. Hopefully, actual good leaders will begin occupying our local, state, and national representative positions, but time will unfortunately have to tell. Greatly appreciate the podcast BRCC. Lead the way.

Girl hasn’t been handed anything. She’s got a lot of stuff to walk the talk on. Namely endorsing the child sniffer and past hard anti 2A policies. She’s got a lot of great qualities for sure.
