Republican senators defend Tulsi Gabbard against claims of being compromised

buffalonews.com — November 25, 2024 at 08:01 AM UTC

Republican senators defended Tulsi Gabbard, Donald Trump's nominee for director of national intelligence, against Democratic claims that she is "compromised" due to her past support for Russia and meetings with Syrian President Bashar Assad. Senator Tammy Duckworth expressed concerns about Gabbard's qualifications, citing her 2017 trip to Syria. In contrast, Senator Eric Schmitt dismissed the accusations, calling them "ridiculous" and lacking evidence. The debate highlights a growing divide between parties over Gabbard's suitability for the intelligence role amid her controversial past.
