Trump says intel chief Gabbard at Georgia FBI raid to ‘keep the election safe’
Equal justice apparently isn't equal anymore.
President Donald Trump said on Thursday that Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard was present during the FBI raid in Fulton County, Georgia, to maintain election integrity even though her office doesn’t directly oversee the issue.
“She’s working very hard on trying to keep the election safe, and she’s done a very good job,” he said of Gabbard. “They got into the votes with a signed judge’s order in Georgia, and you’re going to see some interesting things happening. They’ve been trying to get there for a long time.”
The FBI executed a search warrant on Wednesday at an election facility in Fulton County, which was at the center of alleged voter fraud and election litigation following the 2020 presidential election. Ever since his election loss that year, Trump has consistently spoken out against election fraud.
Gabbard was photographed in Fulton County on the day of the raid as the FBI seized 2020 election ballots. Her appearance largely went unexplained, provoking outrage from Democrats.
Sen. Jon Ossoff (D-GA) is especially concerned about what the retroactive federal review of election results means for the future.
“This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal,” Ossoff said. “And here’s the thing: This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. [Trump] tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020. We have to be prepared for all kinds of schemes and shenanigans. We have to be prepared for him to try to deprive people of their voting rights.”

Sen. Mark Warner (D-VA), vice chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee, was also not fond of Gabbard’s surprise appearance in Georgia.
“Either Director Gabbard believes there was a legitimate foreign intelligence nexus — in which case she is in clear violation of her obligation under the law to keep the intelligence committees ‘fully and currently informed’ of relevant national security concerns — or she is once again demonstrating her utter lack of fitness for the office that she holds by injecting the nonpartisan intelligence community she is supposed to be leading into a domestic political stunt designed to legitimize conspiracy theories that undermine our democracy,” Warner said on X.
