Eight GOP Senators Doubt Trump Nominee Tulsi Gabbard for Intelligence Chief
Dec 17, 2024, 11:23 PM
Former Representative Tulsi Gabbard, nominated by President-elect Donald Trump for the position of Director of National Intelligence, faces skepticism from eight Republican senators regarding her confirmation. Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman, has been meeting with lawmakers, including seven senators, to garner support in a bipartisan push ahead of the Senate confirmation vote. Concerns about her nomination have been amplified by her past meetings with Bashar al-Assad, the deposed Syrian leader, following the collapse of his regime. This skepticism raises doubts about whether she will secure the necessary votes for confirmation.
