Tulsi Gabbard’s Criticism of Obama Creates a Dilemma for the Attorney General
Tulsi Gabbard, director of national intelligence, speaks to the press at the White House on Wednesday.

President Trump signaled this week that Tulsi Gabbard has regained his favor.

Just weeks prior, Mr. Trump criticized Gabbard, a key intelligence official, over a video she recorded during an Asian trip that he viewed as self-promotional. This led to her exclusion from certain meetings ahead of U.S. strikes on Iranian nuclear sites, according to informed sources.

However, during a White House gathering with Republican members of Congress that Gabbard attended, the president remarked, “She’s the most attractive person in the room right now.”

The shift came after Gabbard launched a strategic diversion last week by releasing documents alleging a “treasonous conspiracy” involving Obama administration officials, aiming to deflect attention from the ongoing Epstein controversy.

This maneuver to regain presidential approval has placed Attorney General Pam Bondi in a precarious situation.

Bondi was caught off guard when the director of national intelligence suddenly requested an investigation into one of the president’s persistent grievances: unproven assertions that the Obama administration exaggerated Russian interference in the 2016 election to damage Trump’s candidacy.

Following a recent contentious dispute with a senior FBI official over responsibility for the Epstein-related political turmoil, Bondi reportedly felt blindsided and frustrated. Insiders suggest that Gabbard’s actions effectively serve as a proxy for the president’s demand for retaliatory measures.
