He is overhauling the trade system to recognize the principles of fair play and reciprocity, signaling America will insist on a level economic playing field.”

Gabbard clarified that Trump’s “America First” policies should not be misinterpreted as “America alone.” She explained that a strong America is better positioned to lead, collaborate with, and support allies and partners in pursuing shared interests of peace, security, and prosperity. This aligns with the president’s stance at Davos, where he emphasized restoring common sense in America to bring back strength, peace, and stability abroad.

The former 2020 Democratic presidential candidate, who joined the Republican Party in October 2024, underscored the need for a coordinated global response to defeat terrorism and address challenges posed by Russia, China, Iran, and North Korea.

Acknowledging her recent appointment as DNI, Gabbard highlighted her over two decades of experience in national security matters through her military service and time in Congress. She expressed her commitment to strengthening relationships, facilitating critical information exchange to counter threats, and advancing mutual interests. Gabbard aims to refocus the Office of the Director of National Intelligence on its original mission of keeping Americans safe and providing accurate, timely intelligence to the president, officials, warfighters, and allies.
