    President-elect Donald Trump has named former Democratic Representative Tulsi Gabbard of Hawaii as the next director of national intelligence.

    A lieutenant colonel in the Army Reserves, Gabbard will oversee the nation’s vast intelligence apparatus, and likely find out just how much it is spying on Americans and causing mischief abroad.

    Helping run Spook World is John Ratcliffe, a former congressman from Texas and former DNI, who will move to the CIA.

    Gabbard Background

    The 43-year-old Hawaiian, who left the Democratic Party in 2022 and endorsed Trump in August, is a longtime critic of U.S. military and foreign policy.

    Speaking to Fox talker Laura Ingraham in July, Gabbard said that President Joe Biden and Vice President Kamala Harris were not running those policies.

    “Our foreign policy decisions are being made by unelected people in the military-industrial complex, who are profiting from us being in a constant state of war, and the national security state that has more power to undermine our freedoms and liberties when we are in a state of war,” she said.

    She also explained the difference between Harris and Trump, which led to her endorsement:

    Kamala Harris does not have the strength to stand up to the military-industrial complex and national security state. So she’s going to continue being a figurehead like Joe Biden has been. And … this is where the clear choice is in this election. Donald Trump is strong. As commander in chief, he will take charge. He will stand up to the military-industrial complex and national security state. He will prevent us from getting into unnecessary wars and make decisions that actually serve the best interests of the American people and our own security.

    After that commentary, Gabbard learned that federal air marshals were tracking her movements under the government’s Quiet Skies surveillance program, which is meant to monitor terrorists.

    Thus, as DNI she will likely put the government domestic surveillance under a microscope to find out just who is being watched and why.
