WASHINGTON – (WBAP/KLIF) Tulsia Gabbard is confirmed as America’s top spy chief, with the Senate voting 52-46 Wednesday to become Director of National Intelligence. The confirmation also demonstrates the strong showing for President Donald Trump’s nominees, with Gabbard becoming the 14th Cabinet confirmation.
Gabbard, a former Democratic Representative, managed to evade pushback, including that from Vice Chairman, Democrat Mark Warner of Virginia, stating, “We need leaders in the Intelligence Community and throughout government who are prepared to stand up to short-sighted attempts to attack our workforce at the expense of our national security. Unfortunately, I do not believe Ms. Gabbard is such a leader. Nor is she well-suited, by dint of experience or judgment, to serve as Director of National Intelligence.”
