Former Congresswoman Tulsi Gabbard Leads Trump-Era Election Security Probe, Sparking Controversy

Tulsi Gabbard serves as Director of National Intelligence in the Trump administration, leading recent efforts to probe election security vulnerabilities. According to the Ice Man Substack, her team contracted Mojave Research, a new firm founded by former Marine Corps Judge Advocate Jason Wareham, to analyze voting machines from Puerto Rico and Georgia. Reuters reports that Mojave examined Dominion machines used in Puerto Ricos 2024 elections, identifying software issues that could affect machines nationwide, but found no clear evidence supporting 2020 fraud claims.

The investigation drew scrutiny when Trump lawyer Kurt Olsen, now Director of Election Security and Integrity, pushed Mojave to expand into past election probes. Mojave resisted, focusing on future safeguards and submitting findings in July 2025 before its contract ended in October. Gabbard oversaw an FBI seizure of 2020 ballots in Fulton County, Georgia, citing foreign intelligence threats, though recent affidavits mentioned no such meddling.

Duffel Blog highlighted a satirical whistleblower leak accusing the Director of National Intelligence of secretly being Tulsi Gabbard herself, sparking confusion among officials who struggled to recall the actual leaders name. AOL reports detail a separate whistleblower complaint against Gabbard, based on an intercepted conversation, with another revolving around Jared Kushner, though specifics remain limited.

These developments underscore tensions in using intelligence resources for domestic election reviews, blending security enhancements with political controversies.
