Intelligence Chiefs Fired for Opposing Trump | JQJO

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard fired two veteran intelligence officials, Mike Collins and Maria Langan-Riekhof, due to their opposition to President Trump. This followed the release of a declassified memo contradicting the administration's justification for deporting Venezuelan immigrants. The firings, reported by Fox News Digital, sparked concern among Democrats, who questioned the lack of justification. The dismissed officials had extensive experience and held key positions within the intelligence community, including roles in preparing the President's Daily Brief. Gabbard is consolidating key intelligence operations, aiming for more direct control and investigating alleged political misuse of intelligence.
