Tulsi Gabbard may soon haunt Trump admin in court: analyst
Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard's resignation could have been connected to the potential legal trouble she created for President Donald Trump, according to an analyst on Friday.Legal analyst Scott MacFarlane, Chief Washington Correspondent for MeidasTouch, told MS NOW anchor Katy Tur that Gabbard's presence at the January FBI raid on the Fulton County Election Hub and Operation Center caused legal problems for the Trump administration, Mediaite reported."Not only is there concern that Tulsi Gabbard was there when the feds raided Fulton County and took their 2020 ballots — that’s complicating the effort by the [Trump] administration to fend off a legal challenge from Fulton County trying to get their ballots back. Her presence there has been a problem, potentially legally, in the dispute over those ballots," MacFarlane said.“Because she’s a political actor,” MacFarlane said. “As a national intelligence director, she’s viewed as a political actor if she’s there for what is viewed to be a politically-motivated raid. The Fulton County commissioner is arguing in court that this was a weaponized seizure of their ballots. Tulsi Gabbard being there is part of their argument, and that complicates things more. Why is the director of national intelligence playing any type of politicized role in anything domestically?”White House adviser Kurt Olsen led the raid in Fulton County. The former Trump campaign attorney was a figure in the "Stop the Steal" campaign — the MAGA effort to overturn President Joe Biden's 2020 presidential election win.Gabbard announced on Friday that she was leaving due to her husband's cancer diagnosis. However, a source familiar with her resignation told Reuters that Gabbard "had been forced out by the White House" — a different story compared to the announcement and social media reactions from Trump and other officials.

Tulsi Gabbard resigns as national intelligence chief
Tulsi Gabbard resigned as Director of National Intelligence on Friday after months of pressure from President Donald Trump, with her last day set for June 30. In her resignation letter, published by Fox News, Gabbard cited her husband Abraham's recent diagnosis with a rare form of bone cancer, stating she could not ask him to face the battle alone and maintain the demanding position. However, the departure follows months of reports indicating Trump wanted her gone due to internal friction. The White House previously urged Gabbard to step down before the midterms, with tensions mounting over her differing views on the Iran war and the resignation of her counterterrorism chief, Joe Kent, according to The Mirror. Pro-Israel Trump allies had also targeted her over hiring decisions they considered hostile to Israel. The former Democratic congresswoman from Hawaii switched parties and was confirmed as DNI in early 2025. She declassified over half a million pages of government records during her tenure.Watch the video below. Your browser does not support the video tag.
