Ahead of her hearing, she has prepared extensively, consulting with former DNI officials, ex-CIA leaders, and national security experts across the political spectrum.

Despite her preparation, Gabbard is expected to face sharp questions regarding her positions on Russia, Ukraine, Syria, Iran, and her defense of WikiLeaks founder Julian Assange, who recently reached a plea deal with the Justice Department.

As the Senate Intelligence Committee convenes, all eyes will be on whether Tulsi Gabbard DNI confirmation can convince lawmakers that she is the right choice to lead America’s intelligence community into a new era.
