Tulsi Gabbard under scrutiny for showing up at FBI raid of Georgia election hub [View all]
(NBC News) WASHINGTON When President Donald Trump watched a live feed of the U.S. military operation that captured Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro, the director of national intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, was not in the room. Just two days earlier, she had posted photos of herself on a beach in Hawaii at sunset practicing yoga, sending out a new years greeting for peace.
That she appeared to be on vacation in the run-up to such a high-stakes, ultra-sensitive military operation seemed to underscore the extent to which she has been sidelined by the administration.
But there she was on Wednesday, at an election center in Fulton County, Georgia, as FBI agents conducted a raid seeking ballots from the 2020 presidential election, which Trump has falsely claimed he won.
Gabbard's presence baffled national security experts and raised questions about whether she is seeking new relevancy in the eyes of a president who had soured on her.
