Gabbard as DNI: A Uniquely Dangerous Choice for America
Donald Trump’s recent appointments, including Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence, Pete Hegseth for Secretary of Defense, and Matt Gaetz for Attorney General, represent a significant shift towards controversial figures. Gabbard, a former congresswoman with a history of promoting conspiracy theories and aligning with Russian propaganda, is particularly concerning given her new role overseeing intelligence agencies. Her past actions, including downplaying Assad’s chemical weapons attacks and spreading misinformation about US-funded biolabs in Ukraine, raise serious questions about her suitability for the position. This unconventional approach to staffing key national security positions reflects a clear preference by Trump for candidates who challenge established norms.
