The brother of Trump VP pick Tulsi Gabbard was arrested for attempting to lure a 9-year-old boy into a Waikiki hotel room. The case raises new questions about vetting processes for members of the Trump administration.
Tulsi Gabbard's brother was arrested for attempting to lure a 9-year-old boy into a Waikiki hotel room. The arrest raises questions about vetting processes for members of the Trump administration, given that Gabbard is Trump's VP pick.
Vetting family members of nominees isn't routine practice, but it's a reasonable question when a family connection this serious emerges. The arrest itself doesn't disqualify Gabbard from her role — she's not responsible for her brother's alleged actions. But it does illustrate how quickly damaging personal information can surface about people in high positions, and whether vetting happened or was adequate.
