Summary
Republican senators are privately pushing to review Tulsi Gabbard’s FBI file amid concerns about her alignment with Russian interests following her nomination as Trump’s director of national intelligence.
Gabbard’s past support for Edward Snowden, who leaked U.S. state secrets, has drawn particular scrutiny, as has her history of echoing Russian talking points on Ukraine and Syria.
While GOP senators are publicly deferring to Trump’s pick, some, including Sens. Mike Rounds and Susan Collins, emphasize the importance of full background checks and hearings to address potential security risks.
do you honesty believe that Putin would allow him to live as long as he has in Russia without some form of cooperation? I mean, the guy outlived the “thorn in Americans side” trope about five years ago.
The only logical conclusion I can come to is that he’s selling strategic processes and how Americans think for his safety.
if you disagree why do you think Putin has allowed him to stay alive this long?
No, I think the NSA are still embarrassed.
How many relevant strategic secrets do you think Snowden has after 11 years out of the game. Remember all his documents were passed to journalists. He retained none.
even after 11 years? most credit card debt is forgotten after 7…
not secrets. he has valuable information on how the US reacts. Strategies change, but at the core their goals and how they plan on achieving them usually doesn’t change that often.
imagine if you were fighting someone. you don’t try to predict when/where they are going to punch. you try to predict what they will target. if you can understand who you’re fighting, you have a better chance at winning.
