Former United Nations Ambassador Nikki Haley recently expressed strong concerns about the nomination of former congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as the director of national intelligence by President-elect Donald Trump. During her radio program, Haley criticized Gabbard, referring to her as a 'sympathizer' with close ties to Russia and other foreign adversaries.
Haley emphasized that the role of the Director of National Intelligence is crucial in analyzing real threats to national security and questioned Gabbard's qualifications for the position. She highlighted Gabbard's meetings with foreign leaders, including President Bashar al-Assad of Syria, and accused her of embracing Russian propaganda.
