There’s ‘Trust Gap’ Between Americans and Intelligence Community: Former CIA Officer

Rick de la Torre, senior vice president of strategic risk and intelligence at Continental Strategy and a former CIA operations officer, discussed Tulsi Gabbard’s nomination for the director of national intelligence, and Kash Patel for director of the FBI. De la Torre discussed Gabbard’s change in rhetoric on the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act. He emphasized Patel’s qualifications and need to depoliticize the FBI, as there has been an increasing “trust gap” between the American people and intelligence agencies over the past few years.
