In 2020, Tulsi Gabbard launched a Democratic presidential campaign shaped in part by a false ballistic missile alert that rattled her home state of Hawaii.
Now, in a video filmed in Hiroshima, the DNI warns that America is on the brink of nuclear war.
My latest for ABC News.
Exclusive: DNI Tulsi Gabbard leading the U.S. delegation to Singapore for Asia’s top security summit, Shangri-La Dialogue.

I thought of Rep. Charlie Rangel this morning and his service during the Korean War.
He led a unit to safety despite being wounded by shrapnel while under siege, earning a Purple Heart and Bronze Star.
He died on Memorial Day, a solemn day to remember his legacy.

My reflection on his legacy.
