(Free Beacon) The Biden-Harris White House hosted a Pentagon official at the center of an Iranian government influence operation eight times — after her ties to Tehran’s hardline regime were exposed, raising further questions about the official’s ongoing access to classified information.
Senior Department of Defense official Ariane Tabatabai participated in multiple meetings organized by the White House’s Presidential Personnel Office, which is responsible for recruiting and vetting scores of nominees across the government, visitor logs reviewed by the Washington Free Beacon show.
Tabatabai was at the White House just two months after Semafor revealed she was a key member of a secretive Iranian influence group, the Iran Experts Initiative, that reported back to Tehran’s foreign ministry, according to the logs.
