Former Rep. Tulsi Gabbard has been nominated to be the next Director of National Intelligence .

She has been making the rounds of Capitol Hill meeting with GOP senators ahead of her confirmation hearings.

Critics say she has a tendency to repeat Kremlin propaganda about Russia 's invasion of Ukraine and Syria .

Gabbard’s confirmation is unlikely to fail, if the past is any guide.

Excepting the rejection of former President George H.W. Bush's nomination of Texas Sen. John Tower as Secretary of Defense in 1989 , for the most part cabinet nominees have made it through the upper chamber's “advice and consent’ process routinely.
