Independent, UK - Before Gabbard left the Democratic Party, ingratiated herself with Donald Trump and secured his nomination to become director of National Intelligence, she was known as a prolific peddler of Russian propaganda. In almost every foreign conflict in which Russia had a hand, Gabbard backed Moscow and railed against the US. Her past promotion of Kremlin propaganda has caused significant opposition on both sides of the aisle to her nomination.
Her
journey from anti-war Democrat to Moscow-friendly MAGA warrior began in
Syria. The devastating conflict was sparked by pro-democracy uprisings
in 2011, which were brutally crushed by the Assad regime. It descended
into a complex web of factions that drew extremist Islamists from around
the world and global powers into the fray.
Jeremy Scahil, Drop Site News - The elite bipartisan national security establishment in Washington, D.C., is already in a panic about Donald Trump’s nomination of Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence. Intelligence officials are suggesting they will resign. Former CIA directors and other ex-senior intelligence officials are warning she is a danger to the nation and the world. “Cozying up to Putin as well as to Bashar al-Assad shows she doesn't have the type of perspective needed for someone who is going to head up these 18 intelligence agencies,” said Obama’s CIA director John Brennan in an interview on MSNBC. “This appointment is sending shockwaves not only in the United States but also around the globe. Is this really someone Donald Trump is going to entrust with the care and leadership of the intelligence community? An unserious pick for a serious position.” The Gabbard story
