Tulsi Gabbard Fires ‘Deep State’ Heads Of National Intelligence Council Said To Be Anti-Trump

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has fired the top officials leading the National Intelligence Council and has moved the agency to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, or ODNI.
According to a report by Fox News Digital, whistleblowers have described some members of the Council as “radically opposed” to President Trump.
Gabbard fired Mike Collins, who was serving as the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and his deputy, Maria Langan-Riekhof, on Tuesday, senior intelligence officials told Fox News Digital.
Collins has elicited whistleblower complaints against him for political bias and “deliberately undermining the incoming Trump administration,” officials told Fox. They added that Collins was closely associated with Michael Morrell, the former deputy director of the CIA who worked to write a public letter in 2020 claiming that Hunter Biden’s laptop had “all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation,” and to get signatures from top ex-intelligence officials.
Will this presidential election be the most important in American history?
The report notes that Langan-Reikhof has been a “key advocate” for diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, which contravene Trump policies.
Gabbard is moving the National Intelligence Council from the CIA to her office to “directly hold accountable any improper action and politicization of intelligence,” Fox News Digital reported.
Many intel community leakers are “career bureaucrats that are entrenched in Washington politics,” officials said.
“It takes time to weed them out and fire them,” one official told Fox News, adding that “plans to eliminate non-essential offices within ODNI that we know are housing deep state leakers are underway.”
The moves come as Gabbard has taken steps to root out leakers and alleged “deep state holdovers” who officials say are politicizing intelligence analysis and “trying to sabotage President Trump’s agenda.”
