Gabbard, who served as a U.S. Representative for Hawaii from 2013 to 2021, has been subjected to allegations, particularly after her outspoken foreign policy positions. Some have claimed that her views and ties to Russia pointed to a deeper compromise. However, Senator Mullin, himself a prominent Republican from Oklahoma, rejected such insinuations.

“Tulsi Gabbard is still a Lieutenant Colonel in the United States Army,” Mullin said, highlighting her current role in the military. “She commands the Reserve Unit here in Oklahoma and Missouri. If she was compromised, if she was a ‘Russian asset,’ there is no way the U.S. Army would continue to allow her to serve.”
Mullin’s remarks serve as a stark counterpoint to the narrative that has surrounded Gabbard, especially as she remains a polarizing figure in American politics. As a former Democratic presidential candidate, Gabbard’s positions on foreign policy, particularly her criticism of U.S. involvement in international conflicts and her calls for better relations with Russia, have drawn sharp criticism from some factions of her former party. Nevertheless, Mullin’s comments underscore the complexity of her political stance and reaffirm her dedication to the country.

The controversy surrounding Gabbard has been fueled by several political figures and media outlets, but Mullin’s defence may help bolster her standing among those who see her as a patriot rather than a pawn in a foreign agenda. As the debate continues, it’s clear that Gabbard’s legacy and her future in American politics remains a subject of intense scrutiny.
