His secretaries and close allies would then transcribe his remarks and circulate them to a small group. Sometimes, that included Gabbard herself\u2014or her parents, who are both closely connected to Butler.<\/p>\n<p>Between 2014 and 2016, the Post found dozens of instances in which Gabbard, then a sitting congresswoman, echoed either the exact talking points outlined in SIF directives or similar ones in interviews and policy memos. Additionally, an analysis of her voting record in the House was strikingly similar to the directives she was allegedly receiving from Butler himself. (Those close to Butler repeatedly denied he was behind the directives in statements to the Post.)<\/p>\n<p>What\u2019s more, Butler has previously condemned the United States\u2019 intelligence and defense agencies as power-hungry institutions run by \u201cmadmen\u201d\u2014even as he appears to have long had the ear of the woman who oversaw some of the world\u2019s most powerful intelligence agencies.<\/p>\n<p>But before that, Butler\u2019s focus appeared to be pushing his own agenda through Gabbard\u2014the first American Samoan and practicing Hindu in Congress<\/p>\n<p>\u201cGet it started in the morning,\u201d the person behind the years-long correspondence directed Gabbard in one 2014 email. The author, who Butler denies being, was pushing the Hawaii Democrat to introduce legislation into the House that would punish countries whose citizens fought for the Islamic State.<\/p>\n<p>Gabbard introduced that same bill a week later.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time, Butler loyalists created dozens of social media accounts meant to defend and elevate Gabbard. Some of those same accounts were among the loudest voices after Gabbard announced her resignation from Trump\u2019s cabinet in May.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1910\">MAGA Rep. Mocked Over Bonkers \u2018Transgender Mice\u2019 Bill<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u201cDNI Gabbard is a true patriot and will be missed,\u201d wrote @ImACruzn, as noted by the Post.<\/p>\n<p>Another account added: \u201cTulsi Gabbard is a Patriot. She will be greatly missed.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The controversial Butler is heralded as an extension of God within the SIF.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI was raised to believe Chris Butler was God\u2019s voice on Earth, and if you question him or offended him in any way, you were effectively offending God,\u201d a former SIF member wrote in a 2017 Medium post.<\/p>\n<p>One former SIF member told the Post that Butler has more than just political ambitions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cHe wanted,\u201d she said, \u201cto rule the world.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Gabbard\u2019s aunt, Dr. Caroline Sinavaiana Gabbard, has also alleged that her 2020 presidential bid was the result of Butler\u2019s pursuit of political influence, with Gabbard herself praising Butler as her \u201cguru.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Representatives for Gabbard did not respond to the Daily Beast\u2019s request for comment. Butler could not be reached for comment.<\/p>\n<p>When reached by the Post, Sunil Khemaney, known as Butler\u2019s \u201cright-hand man,\u201d claimed it was he, not Butler, who wrote the directives to Gabbard. However, a detailed analysis by the Post found several indications that Butler was the author.<\/p>\n<p>In some material, the author referred to Butler in the first person and Khemaney in the second person. In a 173-page policy compilation, there was a first-person reference to being a teenager in Hawaii. Khemaney was not raised in Hawaii; Butler was.<\/p>\n<div>\n<p>A spokesperson for Gabbard slammed the Post\u2019s report as \u201ca blatant example of anti-Hindu bigotry.\u201d However, just two days after the Post informed Gabbard it would proceed with the story, her resignation was announced.<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/nationwideinterstatemovers.com\/?p=1908\">Trump Marks Father\u2019s Day With Angry Rant<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/article>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Donald Trump\u2019s ousted director of national intelligence appears to have been far more loyal to the leader of a religious sect described as a \u201ccult\u201d than she was to the president.
