Tulsi Gabbard Resigns As Director Of National Intelligence

by Tyler Durden, Zero Hedge May 22, 2026 – 01:07 PM

Tulsi Gabbard is stepping down from her role as Director of National Intelligence (DNI) to support her husband, Abraham, as he battles an extremely rare form of bone cancer, according to Fox News.

In her formal resignation letter, obtained exclusively by Fox, Gabbard expressed deep gratitude to Trump, writing:

“I am deeply grateful for the trust you placed in me and for the opportunity to lead the Office of the Director of National Intelligence for the last year and a half. Unfortunately, I must submit my resignation, effective June 30, 2026. My husband, Abraham, has recently been diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer.”

She added that her husband “faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months,” and that she must step away from public service to be by his side.

“Abraham has been my rock throughout our eleven years of marriage… His strength and love have sustained me through every challenge. I cannot in good conscience ask him to face this fight alone while I continue in this demanding and time-consuming position.”

Gabbard noted the significant progress made during her tenure, including major declassification efforts (more than half a million pages), reducing the size of the intelligence community and saving taxpayers over $700 million annually, dismantling DEI programs, and establishing a “Weaponization Working Group” to address government weaponization.

The news comes roughly a week after a controversy involving the CIA reclaiming approximately 40 boxes of sensitive documents – including files related to the JFK assassination and MKUltra – from the ODNI. The incident sparked accusations of a “raid” on Gabbard’s office by some lawmakers, though her team pushed back against that characterization amid her broader push for declassification.

Gabbard was confirmed as DNI in early 2025 and has been a key figure in advancing transparency within the intelligence community.
