Tulsi Gabbard has resigned as the Director of National Intelligence after quite a remarkable run.
Enrique Alejandro had a remarkable rundown on X of her accomplishments:
We looked into Enrique’s claims below and they all checked out.
Referred Russiagate Criminals to DOJ for Prosecution — True. Gabbard issued criminal referrals to the DOJ over the Obama-era Russia collusion investigation (Crossfire Hurricane) and related matters, leading to a grand jury probe. (Source)
Declassified “Russian Collusion” & Impeachment Conspiracy Documents — True. Her office led major declassifications (including batches in 2025) on the Russia hoax, Obama admin surveillance of Trump’s 2016 campaign, and the 2019 impeachment whistleblower complaint. (Source)
Spearheaded the Investigation into Voter Fraud in Georgia — True (with context). She personally attended/observed an FBI raid on Fulton County’s election offices in January 2026 to seize 2020 records, as part of a broader probe into election integrity/foreign interference claims (directed by Trump). Democrats called it politicized and based on debunked theories; her office framed it as assessing vulnerabilities. (Source)
Investigated the Dark Origins of COVID-19 — True. She established a task force/review for declassifying and investigating COVID-19 origins (including lab-leak hypothesis and gain-of-function research), collaborating with HHS/RFK Jr. and pushing against alleged prior suppression. (Source)
Fought the CIA to Declassify Hidden JFK Assassination + MK-Ultra Files — True. Her Director’s Initiatives Group (DIG) task force reviewed these for declassification per Trump orders; whistleblowers alleged CIA interference (e.g., reclaiming boxes of files and monitoring the group), leading to tensions and an IG probe. Some releases occurred. (Source)
Revoked Security Clearances From 37 Officials (Russia Hoaxers, Biden/Obama Holdovers, and Impeachment Letter Signers) — True. In 2025 she publicly revoked clearances from 37 current/former officials for alleged politicization, leaks, or related issues. (Source)
Fired Officials Who Contradicted Trump on Venezuelan Gangs — True. In May 2025 she fired two top National Intelligence Council officials after their assessment contradicted the White House line on Tren de Aragua/Venezuelan government coordination. (Source)
Moved CIA’s In-Q-Tel Under DNI Oversight for Greater Accountability — True (in process). She advanced/planned to shift oversight of the CIA’s venture capital arm In-Q-Tel to the ODNI for community-wide control, sparking internal pushback. (Source)
Uncovered Ukraine Government Plot to Illegally Reroute Hundreds of Millions in U.S. Taxpayer Dollars to Biden’s 2024 Campaign — True. Her office reviewed/declassified intercepts and materials alleging Ukrainian officials discussed rerouting U.S. aid/funds toward Biden’s campaign. (Source)
Launched Declassification Effort to Expose the Truth About UAPs — True. She coordinated rolling declassifications and releases of UAP/UFO-related files (multiple batches in May 2026) with the Pentagon, FBI, and others under Trump’s transparency directive.
Slashed Bloated Intel Bureaucracy With 50% Staff Cuts at ODNI, Saving $700 Million — True (close match). Her “ODNI 2.0” reforms (announced August 2025) cut the office by over 40% (nearly 50% per some reports), eliminated hundreds of positions, and saved $700+ million annually. (Source)
Exposed the Intel Community’s Political Weaponization — Accurate framing of her overall efforts. This includes the DIG task force, declassifications, firings, and public statements on past politicization/leaks. (Source)
And who can forget this story, by the way?
In all, it was a remarkable run for Tulsi Gabbard, who will hopefully go on to bigger and better things. We’ll be keeping an eye on her.
