Tulsi Gabbard, Trump’s pick to oversee US spy agencies, clears Senate committee
- Tulsi Gabbard's nomination to be the director of national intelligence cleared a key Senate committee in a 9-8 vote, despite concerns about her past comments sympathetic to Russia and a meeting with Syria's deposed leader.
- Following a contentious confirmation hearing, Republican support for Gabbard fell into place after a pressure campaign by Trump supporters and allies like Elon Musk.
- Gabbard defended her meeting with Assad, saying she used it to press him on human rights, and said while Snowden revealed important facts, he broke the law by leaking classified secrets.
