Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has made significant waves in recent days with several major policy shifts and personnel decisions that reflect the Trump administration's priorities for the intelligence community.

Last week, Gabbard fired the National Intelligence Council's top two officials, including acting chair Mike Collins and deputy Maria Langan-Riekhof. The dismissals came after an intelligence report from the council contradicted administration claims linking Venezuela's Maduro regime to the criminal gang Tren de Aragua. This gang connection has been used by the administration to invoke the Alien Enemies Act of 1798 for deportations of undocumented immigrants. Gabbard's office stated the officials were dismissed for "politicizing intelligence" and leaking classified information.

On May 25, Gabbard announced the establishment of a new task force called the Director's Initiatives Group (DIG), charged with restoring transparency and accountability to the Intelligence Community. This group is implementing President Trump's executive orders aimed at rebuilding trust, investigating alleged weaponization of intelligence agencies, addressing politicization, exposing unauthorized disclosures, and declassifying information deemed in the public interest. The task force is also evaluating IC structure, resources, and personnel to improve efficiency and eliminate what the administration considers wasteful spending.

Earlier this year, Gabbard launched a formal investigation into all Intelink Top Secret chat rooms and other Intelligence Community collaboration platforms following the discovery of what were described as "obscene, pornographic, and sexually explicit chats." She directed intelligence agency heads to fire employees and revoke security clearances of those found to have engaged in such communications.

During President Trump's first 100 days, Gabbard has eliminated diversity, equity, and inclusion programs at ODNI, which the administration claims has saved taxpayers millions of dollars. She has also revoked security clearances for individuals accused of abusing public trust for political purposes.

Additionally, Gabbard has redirected intelligence community efforts toward identifying illegal immigrants with potential terror ties and securing the southern border. She has expanded counterterrorism activities to include counternarcotics operations and has designated cartels and transnational gangs as top national security threats.

Technical issues have also plagued the ODNI recently, with its website reportedly being unavailable for several days beginning around May 12. The outage has prevented access to past reports and other information typically made available by the office, though the cause of this disruption remains unclear.
