US National Intelligence Director Tulsi Gabbard appeared on Fox News on Tuesday to discuss the report of CIA agents considering selling the state’s secrets to foreign enemies.

Gabbard’s remarks come in response to speculation that dissatisfied agents who are unhappy with the efficiency of the government could be engaged in espionage as a form of protest. Between exterior In “Jesse Watters Primetime,” Gabbard criticized certain elements within the CIA, accusing them of using media connections to indirectly threaten national security.

“I’m interested in how they think this is a good tactic to continue their work. They use propaganda arms through CNN to make this indirect threat, Using it over and over again to reveal that there is absolutely no loyalty in America, it essentially exposes myself,” Gabbard said.

Gabbard said these actions betray not only the trust of the American people, but also the fundamental principles of the Constitution.

“It’s not to the American people or the constitution. It’s ourselves, these are the kind of people we need to take root and remove, and this is our core mission that we are committed to. “The patriots who work in the community can actually focus on that.”

Gabbard said there are important byproducts of tackling this issue head-on.

“I have to say that one byproduct of what I literally saw today is for this immediate action of transparency and accountability. I personally suppose within the intelligence news community, “Hey, you’re this “We need to know about it,” Gabbard said. “We need to look here. We’re all moving forward as people are all on our mission to refocus our core mission of serving the people of America.”

The CIA is reportedly considering firing its biggest executive in nearly half a century, targeting executives handling diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) initiatives.

In 1977, CIA director Stansfield Turner dismissed 198 secret service representatives, marking a significant cut. Recently, in compliance with Trump’s DEI directive, the CIA has also dismantled several DEI-focused groups, the agency confirmed with callers.

Earlier this month, the CIA introduced a retirement offer for all employees and marked it as the first intelligence reporting agency to propose such an exit strategy. According to Trump administration officials, the offer aims to promote the resignation of those who may oppose current administration policies by adjusting wages and benefits for around eight months. .
