SOURCE: Roger Stone Saved Tulsi Gabbard's Job... For Now.
President Donald Trump was on the brink of firing Tulsi Gabbard, director of National Intelligence. But then Roger Stone, one of his longtime allies, intervened, according to a new report.
When polled by Trump, Cabinet officials were supportive of the director of national intelligence, but it was Stone — a longtime GOP strategist and close friend of Trump — who tipped the balance.
“Roger sealed the deal. He saved Tulsi," a source told Axios. Stone reportedly gave Trump four reasons to keep Gabbard in the role including that she was loyal, had no intention of resigning and that firing her would trigger a media firestorm.
In 2020, Gabbard's brief presidential campaign sold "No War With Iran" t-shirts.
