Donald Trump selected former Democrat Hawaii Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard as his Director of National Intelligence.
Gabbard has over two decades of military experience and currently serves as a Lieutenant Colonel in the U.S. Army Reserve.
But Nikki Haley just made one bad accusation that had Tulsi Gabbard ready to fight.
Democrats and the left-wing media have been in a frenzy over many of Donald Trump’s cabinet nominees and staff hires for his upcoming administration.
Florida Congressman Matt Gaetz already withdrew his nomination as Trump’s Attorney General due to a vicious smear campaign against him by the media and Senate RINOs.
With Gaetz out of the picture, the Democrats and the media are now turning their guns on Trump’s other nominees, including Robert Kennedy Jr. as Secretary of Health and Human Services, Fox News personality Pete Hegseth as Defense Secretary, and Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence.
But it’s not just the Left who are gunning for Trump’s nominees.
Establishment Republicans are also lining up to stop the confirmation of any real change agent nominated by Trump.
One of the RINOs leading the charge against two of Trump’s nominees is former South Carolina Governor and UN Ambassador Nikki Haley.
Haley ran a nasty Primary campaign against Donald Trump and stayed in the race through the Super Tuesday states.
She eventually endorsed Donald Trump over Kamala Harris, but it didn’t earn her any favors with the President-elect.
After Donald Trump’s landslide victory, he announced on Truth Social that neoconservatives like Mike Pompeo and Nikki Haley will not be a part of his administration this time around.
“I will not be inviting former Ambassador Nikki Haley, or former Secretary of State Mike Pompeo, to join the Trump administration,” he posted on Truth Social. “I very much enjoyed and appreciated working with them previously, and would like to thank them for their service to our country.”
Haley called Trump’s statement “shallow” and said, “I know the game he was playing – I don’t need to play that game.”
And now Haley is turning her guns on Tulsi Gabbard and Robert Kennedy Jr.
On a recent episode of her podcast Nikki Haley Live, the former Governor attacked Kennedy as a “liberal Democrat.”
“Who is RFK Jr?” she asked.
“He’s not a health guy, he has raised questions about what’s in our food, and I am right there with him, but that’s not his background,” she continued. “He is not educated, trained, or practiced in healthcare at all.”
Haley then turned her fire on Tulsi Gabbard and sounded like the Democrats with “Russia, Russia, Russia!”
“This is a job for an honest broker without any pronounced policy biases,” Haley said.
“She went to Syria in 2017 for a photo-op with [Syrian President Bashir] al-Assad while he was massacring his own people – this to me was disgusting,” Haley continued. “Everything she said about that was Russian talking points, Russian propaganda.”
Haley slammed Gabbard as “a Russian, Iranian, Syrian, Chinese sympathizer.”
“After Russia invaded Ukraine, Tulsi Gabbard literally blamed NATO, our Western alliance that’s responsible for countering Russia,” Haley said. “She blamed NATO for the attack on Ukraine, and the Russians and the Chinese echoed her talking points and her interviews on Russian and Chinese television.”
She even accused Gabbard of being a puppet of Iran.

Of course, there’s a reason why Haley is viciously attacking Gabbard.
Haley is a neocon who represents the George Bush / John McCain wing of the GOP.
She supports endless wars overseas and nation-building around the globe.
Tulsi Gabbard has two decades of military experience under her belt, but she supports Trump’s America First foreign policy.
And Nikki Haley can’t stand it.
