'Traitorous': Intelligence community fears Trump intelligence pick will work for Russians

Raw Story  

Don't get distracted by President-elect Donald Trump's decision to choose for his team a Fox News anchor who thinks germs aren't real because he can't see them, a vaccine-denier who confessed to Roseanne Barr that he once staged a bear cub crime scene, and a Florida man subjected to a federal probe over accusations he had sex with a minor — the real problem is Tulsi Gabbard, a new report contends. The intelligence community is terrified at the prospect that a former congresswoman from Hawaii with a problematic habit of spreading Russian propaganda could be the next Director of National Intelligence, Time Magazine reported on Friday. "Intelligence analysts are most concerned that Gabbard, in the role of director of national intelligence, might be motivated to censor intelligence conclusions critical of Russia and shut down funding for potentially fruitful investigations," Time reported. "While in Congress in 2017, Gabbard met with Syrian dictator Bashar Assad after the U.S. had broken diplomatic relations with the country over his bloody crackdown against his own people," Time reported. In 2019, Gabbard's longshot presidential bid drew favorable coverage from Russian propaganda sites, spurring then-presidential candidate Hillary Clinton to suggest Russians were ‘grooming’ a Democrat to help Trump win.
