DNI Nominee Yanked By Trump Admin Likens Himself to Christ on Cross

Daniel Davis has accused Israel of pursuing 'ethnic cleansing' of Gazans and blamed Oct. 7 on Jewish state

Daniel Davis, the onetime pick to serve as deputy director of national intelligence who was yanked from consideration this week over his anti-Israel views, likened himself to Christ on the cross as he tacitly blamed Jews for detonating his nomination.

"Shortly before His death, Jesus was on trial before Pontius Pilate. All sorts of agitators were accusing Him of many things, some true, others not," Davis, a senior fellow at the isolationist Defense Priorities think tank, wrote Thursday on X, shortly after Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard removed him from consideration to be her deputy director of national intelligence for mission integration.
 
"But Jesus said nothing in his own defense, as recorded in Matthew 27."

"What He suffered, and the unjust things He endured, are orders of magnitude higher than anything to which I may have been subject," Davis continued. "If He can do that under such arduous conditions, then as a follower of Jesus Christ, so too should I, especially under far lesser circumstances. This is all I will have to say on any recent events related to me in the news."

The unity of government which constitutes you one people is also now dear to you. It is justly so, for it is a main pillar in the edifice of your real independence, the support of your tranquility at home, your peace abroad; of your safety; of your prosperity; of that very liberty which you so highly prize. But as it is easy to foresee that, from different causes and from different quarters, much pains will be taken, many artifices employed to weaken in your minds the conviction of this truth.  George Washington - Farewell Address

This guy (I guess a guy) reminds me of another Biden choice, a certain Sam Brinton, and demonstrates why the government house needs to be cleaned.  Biden once said a person needed to be a radical, an LGBTQ advocate, women's libber, a trannie, or any other type of protestor to be considered for a government job.  And that means the welfare office we call government is loaded with lunatics who don't care an iota what the Constitution says about the government being for the general welfare, not the specific radical welfare. **nononono*

Sounds like we dodged a bullet with this guy.
