An alignment between Russia and Tulsi Gabbard is worrying some Senate Intelligence Committee members.

Summary

Republican senators are privately pushing to review Tulsi Gabbard’s FBI file amid concerns about her alignment with Russian interests following her nomination as Trump’s director of national intelligence.
