Tulsi Gabbard Scores Key Victory In Confirmation Process
02/04/2025 --kron4
The Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday advanced Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination to become the next director of national intelligence (DNI), putting her in position to get confirmed by the full chamber after key senators threw their support behind her. The 9-8 vote was along party lines. It puts Gabbard only days away from being considered on [...]

The key committee vote on Tulsi Gabbard for Director of National Intelligence (DNI) determined whether her nomination would move to the floor.

After Gabbard faced a public questioning, two of three senators still on the fence now say they are a 'yes' vote.

Tulsi Gabbard is seeking to assuage senators’ concerns about her in a new opinion piece explaining why she thought "traitor" was too harsh a word for Edward Snowden.

President Trump already has twice the number of Cabinet secretaries confirmed than he did at this point in his first term, but Senate Republicans are poised to fall short of their goal of meeting the confirmation pace set under President Obama.

Tulsi Gabbard appeared before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Thursday as part of her confirmation process to serve as director of national intelligence.

Chart: Axios VisualsRFK Jr. and Tulsi Gabbard will have to sweat their confirmations over the weekend, based on what GOP senators said at hearings the past two days.Why it matters: Republicans with choice committee seats can blow up confirmations before they reach the Senate floor.Any GOP "no" vote means the nominee won't get the committee's recommendation.No recommendation = no floor vote, or at least a very unlikely one, as Majority Leader John Thune said Wednesday.Senate Finance, which votes on Kennedy for secretary of Health and Human Services:Bill Cassidy (R-La.) told RFK Jr.: "I've been struggling with your nomination" and "you may be hearing from me over the weekend." Cassidy questioned Kennedy about vaccines at Thursday's HELP Committee hearing and has a vote on the Finance Committee.Senate Intel, which votes on Gabbard for director of national intelligence:Susan Collins (R-Maine) asked Gabbard if she'd seek a pardon or commutation for Edward Snowden. Gabbard said no to both. "I was happy with her responses to my questions," Collins told reporters Thursday night, per CNN.Todd Young (R-Ind.) told Gabbard, "It would befit you and be helpful for the way you're perceived by members of the Intelligence Committee" to say Snowden harmed national security. Gabbard repeatedly refused to call Snowden a traitor at the hearing.Jerry Moran (R-Kan.) offended Gabbard by saying he wanted to be sure Russia doesn't "get a pass in either your mind or your heart."John Cornyn (R-Texas) could not get a direct answer from Gabbard on whether warrants should be required for wiretaps under Section 702 of FISA. (He posted Thursday he's a yes on Gabbard).The bottom line: Even senators who support Gabbard were taken aback by her Snowden answers."I think there are a lot of questions after," Sen. James Lankford (R-Okla.) told reporters. "I thought that was going to be an easy softball question."
