This is a Washington Post story but I'm using a different news source that isn't paywalled.

Obviously Tulsi embarrassed Trump by contradicting his and Israel's statements about Iran's weapons program.

Not sure what Pete did.

Following multiple reports that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard is falling out of favor with President Donald Trump over her views on Iran, a new report revealed that not only has Gabbard been iced out of top-level discussions on Iran, but so too has Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth.

According to The Washington Post — in a piece authored by Warren P. Strobel, Alex Horton and Abigail Hauslohner — Hegseth and Gabbard, despite occupying crucial positions, have been cut out at this critical juncture.

 
In relation to Iran not sure.

But apparently Trump was mortified by the lameness of the parade and holds Pete responsible for it.

Shit Trump birthday parade.

The fallout with Pete seems serious...

“Nobody is talking to Hegseth,” an unnamed official told the Post. “There is no interface operationally between Hegseth and the White House at all.”
 
Thank goodness they are both in the outer circle. Neither is competent and Gabbard is particularly worrisome given her connections to pro Iranian strongmen. Poor Pete didn't deliver on the parade.......that was a mortal sin.

The late night show hosts mocked the squeaky Sherman tanks, sparse crowds, Rubio yawning and Trump napping.

I personally didn't like the tank mocking and I'm sure Donald didn't like to be fodder for comedians.

WTF was he supposed to do about it? Can't force people to attend.

Not that reason or logic are in any way part of MAGA-think.
 
Who knew for this clown show, the two 'rational' actors would be a woman and a drunk. Man, you can't make up how messed up American society is if this is the best they can do.

Says who?

Oh...right...unnamed sources.

Sounds like Intel Community propaganda, to me.

Unfortunately Gabbard and Hegseth being sidelined doesn’t necessarily translate to competent shadow replacements.

Ah Mycroft.

Never change buddy.

Never change.

Are you equating a woman with a drunk?
 
OH QUICK, Let's come to Trump's defense and call all news about Trump "propaganda!!"
shrug...

Give me some actual "news" about Trump and I'll consider it. But give me unnamed sources and I'll dismiss it out of hand.

I'm glad that Trump is cutting them out of his circle, but they should both be fired.

Probably over the pathetic parade.
