Related: About this forumRachel Maddow on Tulsi Gabbard: Six things about Trump's pick for Director of National Intelligence - Rachel Maddow MSNBC
How much will Americans get to know about the people Donald Trump is choosing to run the U.S. government? In the absence of any real vetting the way it's usually done, Rachel Maddow presents a Rachel Maddow Show Public Servant Announcement to hopefully help fill that gap.
In this episode, Rachel takes a closer look at Trump's choice for Director of National Intelligence, former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard, who has a deep history of anti-gay activism and a disturbing amount of support from Russian state media. - 12/19/2024.
