Periskopi(a year ago)
(a year ago)President Donald Trump's appointment to lead the country's intelligence community sharply criticised the positions of these agencies under the previous presidents, accusing them of using their competencies to sabotage Trump, as well as of trying to breach its reputation. Former member of the Tulsi Gabbard Congress said [...]
Former member of the Tulsi Gabbard Congress told members of the Senate Commission on Thursday of the discovery that it would bring a new “perspective if confirmed as director of national intelligence and restore confidence to 18 intelligence community agencies, which according to it is “at the lowest level”.
For a long time, the wrong information of intelligence, insufficient or politically used has led to costly failures and minimation of our national security and freedoms provided by God,” said Gabbard during the session for its confirmation.
The bottom line is this: this must end,” she said.
The re-election of President Trump is a clear mandate from the American people to cut off this cycle of failure as well as politicisation of the intelligence community”.
Gabbard also attacked those who have criticised her appointment by arguing that she is “faithful to something or anyone other than God, my conscience and the Constitution of the United States”, she said.
What really bothers my political opponents is that I refuse to be their puppet,” she said in her opening statement.
Trump's decision to appoint Gabbard for the post shortly after his victory in the November presidential elections caught some lawmakers and former intelligence officials by surprise.
