DNI Gabbard attends FBI raid of Georgia election hub and arranges Trump call
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard appeared at the Fulton County Elections and Operations Hub on January 30, 2026, alongside FBI agents executing a search warrant on 2020 election materials. Gabbard arranged a phone call between the agents and President Trump, who praised their work on speakerphone. Legal experts noted that the DNI's statutory authority covers foreign intelligence threats and explicitly excludes domestic law enforcement, making Gabbard's operational presence at the raid without clear legal basis.
