Ossoff questions Clayton on Gabbard role in Fulton County election raid during DNI hearing
The segment covers a July 15, 2026, Senate Intelligence Committee confirmation hearing for Jay Clayton, President Trump's nominee to replace Tulsi Gabbard as Director of National Intelligence. It shows Sen. Jon Ossoff pressing Clayton on his knowledge of Gabbard's presence at a January 2026 FBI raid on a Fulton County, Georgia, election facility and a hypothetical about complying with a presidential order to oversee such a domestic search warrant. Clayton states he learned of Gabbard's involvement only recently and calls the scenario hypothetical. The broadcast includes commentary from David Rhodes criticizing Clayton's answers as evasive and extraordinary, asserting the President's involvement constitutes unconstitutional interference in state elections. Sourcing draws from the live hearing footage with no additional named experts or documents presented.
