Gabbard's path through Intelligence Committee narrows ahead of key hearing

Republicans are cautioning that Tulsi Gabbard’s path to confirmation to lead the U.S. intelligence apparatus is narrowing as she seemingly has trouble winning over key GOP senators.

Gabbard, along with Robert F. Kennedy Jr. and Kash Patel, are set for their high-stakes confirmation hearings this week as senators face some of President Trump’s most controversial nominees.

But it’s Gabbard who appears to have the most tenuous path to confirmation as she struggles to assuage Republicans on the Senate Intelligence Committee, which will determine her fate, ahead of Thursday’s hearing.

“I think it remains to be seen,” said Sen. John Cornyn (R-Texas), an Intelligence Committee member, when asked if Gabbard can win support of the panel. “I think the jury’s still out.”

Another unqualified whack job nominee.

I think the jury’s still out. Very inciteful John Cornyn. In a judicious and truth seeking and believing body the gop would have rejected her in about 20 minutes. With no spines there is no opposition to the monster.
