Gabbard’s team has sought spy agency data to enforce Trump’s agenda

UNITED STATES, JUL 8 – Tulsi Gabbard's team seeks internal intelligence emails using A.I. to identify officials opposing the Trump administration and aims to restore transparency in U.S. spy agencies.

  • In April 2025, the head of U.S. intelligence established the Director’s Initiative Group with the goal of enhancing transparency and accountability within the intelligence community.
  • Gabbard formed the DIG to enforce President Trump's executive orders ending weaponization of the federal government, declassifying documents, and halting diversity programs.
  • The DIG requested broad access to correspondence and messaging records within major U.S. intelligence agencies to deploy AI tools aimed at identifying personnel allegedly opposing the Trump administration's policies.
  • Officials warned this data effort was a potential counterintelligence risk and that no agencies transferred data, while Gabbard fired over 100 intelligence members in April for personal use of official chatrooms.
  • The DIG’s creation and personnel actions increased tensions amid claims of politicization, with GOP Rep. Rick Crawford praising Gabbard’s accountability efforts and critics concerned about echo chambers.
