TULSI GABBARD BECOMES U.S. DIRECTOR OF NATIONAL INTELLIGENCE – Says she will ensure the security and freedom of U.S citizens
Tulsi Gabbard has been confirmed and sworn in as the U.S. Director of National Intelligence.
President Trump at the swearing-in ceremony praised Gabbard as a woman of great common sense, expressing his assurance that she would work “tirelessly to keep America safe.” He also entrusted her with overseeing urgently needed reforms to the U.S. intelligence community to protect the rights and the civil liberties of all Americans.
Gabbard expressed her commitment to refocus the intelligence community by empowering the great patriots who are in service to the country and also ensuring the safety, security and freedom of the American people.
Gabbard will now lead an agency established after the Sept. 11, 2001, attacks to coordinate the nation’s intelligence operations—one of the most critical national security roles in the U.S. government.
