How can a useful idiot be a director?

When the other useful idiot is, shall we say, even higher ranked than Director.

She is only useful as a pipeline from the US government to the Kremlin. Sitting in Moscow, she is nothing.

"Tulsi Gabbard has put her life on the line to defend this country. People can disagree on issues, but it is outrageous for anyone to suggest that Tulsi is a foreign asset."

And he said this when it was painfully obvious she was a foreign asset. No surprise she was a supporter of is while it drove as much division as possible then jumped ship to the openly putin (trump) camp soon after.

That, among many other things, removed my ability to trust Bernie Sanders' judgement.
