Tulsi Gabbard, President-elect Donald Trump’s pick to lead the U.S. intelligence community, does not have a Senate confirmation hearing on the horizon amid concerns from Democrats over missing vetting materials. 

Top Democrats on the Senate Intelligence Committee say they still do not have an FBI background check or ethics disclosures from the Office of Government Ethics as of Monday afternoon, causing unease as they look to probe Gabbard’s overall qualifications to become the Director of National Intelligence.
