TULSI GABBARD RESIGNS, HUSBAND HAS BONE CANCER

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has resigned. It wasn’t over any deep disagreement with President Trump over policy, nor was it some shambolic exit a la Joe Kent from the National Counterterrorism Center. It was over family reasons: her husband was diagnosed with bone cancer. Her last day on the job will be on June 30 (via Fox News)--MORE AT Tulsi Gabbard Resigns

TWO ITEMS FROM THE MAILBOX

 

So---once again, there were random complaints recently about some article links posted here only being accessible via a paid subscription to the media source in question....

Yes, from time to time, we stumble upon items of potential interest that are behind a paywall (this frequently is the case at LoHud, THE NY SUN and some Examiner News articles, and substacks for example)--but like to offer our readers the option anyway.

These days, journalism, information, and news often comes at a cost. It's your decision to spend....or not.....yes it can add up---which is why we recommend that you do your due diligence before you write that check.

Once again, life is not free.

And once again, it's time to get over it.

A reader has fond memories of the "old drive-in" and remembers seeing some sort of "articles directory" here but can't find it.
