Sen. John Barrasso that the confirmation hearing for Tulsi Gabbard is being held up by "a paperwork problem" with the Office of Government Ethics.

WASHINGTON, DC – Senator John Barrasso said on January 13 in a television interview that Tulsi Gabbard’s confirmation hearing, as nominee for Director of National Intelligence, has been delayed due to a “paperwork problem” with the Office of Government Ethics.

Tulsi Gabbard, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the U.S. intelligence community, does not have a Senate confirmation hearing on the horizon amid concerns from Democrats over missing vetting materials.

In private meetings, President-elect Donald Trump’s choice to become U.S. spy chief has mixed up details about a key surveillance law.

Well, Tulsi Gabbard now says she is all for the unconstitutional law that permits the national security state to surveil Americans without obtaining legal warrants beforehand — a law Donald Trump’s nominee for director of national intelligence has previously and vigorously pledged to repeal.

After her Meeting with Senator Tommy Tuberville this week, Tulsi Gabbard delivered brief remarks to reporters on the progress she has made in meeting with Senators.
