Tulsi Gabbard, President-elect Trump's pick as Director of National Intelligence, is set to join the incoming president at the Army-Navy game on Saturday, a source familiar with the situation told NewsNation's Libbey Dean.

The annual game will take place in Landover, Md., outside of Washington, D.C.

Gabbard will attend alongside Pete Hegseth, Trump's pick for Defense secretary, who is set to also meet with the president-elect at the game. The Washington Post first reported Hegseth's attendance.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis is also set to attend the game.

Gabbard has recently been in the spotlight as she courts senators ahead of her confirmation hearing for her position in the Trump administration. Though, nearly half a dozen sources indicated to The Hill that the former Hawaii representative is facing an uphill battle as she meets with lawmakers.

Her nomination has sparked concern from some of the country's closest allies over whether the U.S. will remain a trusted partner for sharing critical, sensitive information. 

Vice President-elect JD Vance, who is also attending the rivalry matchup, also confirmed Friday that he invited Daniel Penny, a Marine veteran recently acquitted of a negligent homicide charge in New York City, to the game.

“Daniel’s a good guy, and New York’s mob district attorney tried to ruin his life for having a backbone,” Vance wrote in a post on the social platform X, replying to a reporter from NOTUS, which first reported on the invitation.
