Sen. Tim Kaine, D-Va., on Thursday questioned the presence of Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard at the site of an FBI raid on a Fulton County election hub in Georgia this week.

"Why did Tulsi Gabbard take part in a raid on an elections office? We need to step up to protect our elections from this administration’s meddling," he asked.

The FBI raided the facility in connection with a criminal probe of the 2020 election. Gabbard was confirmed to arrive on site after reports of the raid broke, though her involvement in the matter remains unclear.
