Gabbard's standing in Trump World comes into question [View all]

(The Hill) Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard’s strength and standing within the Trump administration is coming under question after the president twice publicly brushed off her testimony that Iran is not close to developing a nuclear weapon, and amid reports of tensions between the two.

President Trump nominated Gabbard as his intelligence director despite some doubts from both parties, and her anti-war stance fits in with the MAGA movement’s aversion to getting the U.S. sucked into foreign conflicts.

But the two are not longtime allies, and she increasingly appears to be on the outside looking in as Trump crafts his policy on the Israeli-Iran war.
