President-elect Donald Trump has nominated Tulsi Gabbard, the former Democratic congresswoman and staunch critic of U.S. military interventions, as his pick for director of national intelligence. Gabbard, a combat veteran and former House representative, has shifted from Democrat to Trump supporter in recent years. If confirmed, she will oversee the nation’s intelligence agencies and play a key role in shaping U.S. foreign policy. The nomination continues Trump’s trend of selecting loyal figures for top positions, despite Gabbard’s controversial stances. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
