Gabbard Scorns Critics of Her Role in FBI Ballot Box Raid

National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard rebuked Democratic lawmakers and others who expressed alarm over her participation in an FBI raid of a Georgia county election office, saying that President Donald Trump had asked her to be there.

Criticizing what she called “blatantly false and slanderous accusations” by members of Congress and the media, Gabbard said on social media that her office would “continue to take action under my statutory authorities to secure our nation and ensure the integrity of our elections.”
