  • Trump forgave Tulsi Gabbard for calling him "Saudia Arabia's bitch" and picked her for national intelligence chief. But will the Senate play along?

The article from Yahoo News discusses Tulsi Gabbard's potential role as an "intelligence czar" under a hypothetical second term of Donald Trump's presidency. Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii who left the party in 2022, has been floated as a candidate for this position due to her criticism of the intelligence community, particularly the CIA, which she has accused of undermining American democracy. The piece outlines her controversial views, including her skepticism towards U.S. intelligence agencies, her opposition to certain foreign interventions, and her alignment with some of Trump's foreign policy critiques. It also mentions her meeting with Trump at Mar-a-Lago, suggesting a possible alignment or at least a mutual interest in intelligence reform. The article explores the implications of such an appointment, highlighting the potential for significant changes in how U.S. intelligence operates, given Gabbard's outspoken views on the need for oversight and reform within these agencies.
