While we were eating our turkey yesterday, look like things overseas have gotten spicy.

Georgians have taken to the streets to protest their Russian friendly government and were promptly beaten back with tear gas and fire hoses. It seems awfully similar to events during the Maidan revolution in Ukraine in 2013-14.

Meanwhile, Syrian rebel forces (non-ISIS) have apparently moved to take back Aleppo from the Assad government (who as we know are backed by the Russians).

Two interesting developments, but who knows where they will lead after January 20th, especially with Trump and Gabbard in the works.

1. I have serious doubts about that

There is no way that Gabbard will be confirmed as DNI. She is absolutely compromised and maybe outside of Turberville, not a single senator in that chamber believes any different. The only question is who are they loyal too, us or Russia.
Gabbard will, without hesitation, give all the intelligence she can get her hands on to Russia. Well at least what TSF doesn't give to them.

2. i'm not sure our info will help him.

3. The Syrian rebels are a combination of AQ and ISIS

They are not the good guys

4. There is also some saber rattling in the Arctic Ocean

U.S. warships and Chinese and Russian war ships. And Scandinavia is on high alert. Chinese merchant vessel cut undrsea cables in the Baltic.
