Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard is announcing the imminent dismissal of over 100 intelligence community employees connected to a series of sexually explicit and graphic posts regarding sexual fetishes and transgenderism on an intragovernmental server. The individuals—employed by the National Security Administration (NSA) and Central Intelligence Agency (CIA)—engaged in the inappropriate discussions during work hours.
Gabbard notes the severity of the situation, describing it as a significant violation of trust, potentially having national security and blackmail implications. “There are over 100 people from across the intelligence community that contributed to and participated in what is really just an egregious violation of trust,” President Donald J. Trump’s DNI said during an interview yesterday. Gabbard added: “I put out a directive today that they will all be terminated and their security clearances will be revoked.”
On Tuesday, the National Pulse reported that NSA and CIA staff had made a series of posts discussing transgenderism and castration fetishes on a DEI-themed chat channel hosted on an intergovernmental server. The logs, originally obtained by City Journal, show NSA, CIA, and DIA employees discussing polyamory, transgender surgeries, and explicit sexual topics on government time using the NSA’s Intelink messaging platform.
Meanwhile, Gabbard—in a post on X (formerly Twitter)—confirmed that action is being taken against those identified. “Memo sent. We know who they are. Action is underway,” the Trump White House’s Director of National Intelligence wrote.
