Tulsi Gabbard Fires Two Deep Staters for Undermining Their Superior Officer's Foreign Policy and Allegedly for Leaking;
Perjurer John Brennan Cries About His Frenz Getting Canned

Apparently they disagreed with Trump's assessment that the communist authoritarian government of Venezuela works with Tren de Aragua.

Okay, fair enough, that's your opinion.

But what is not fair -- or legal, actually -- is to leak your opinion to the press in order to spike a policy you disagree with.

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has fired the top officials leading the National Intelligence Council -- whom whistleblowers describe as "radically opposed to Trump" -- and has moved the agency to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, or ODNI, to ensure she can block any "politicization of intelligence," Fox News Digital has learned.

Gabbard fired Mike Collins, who was serving as the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, and his deputy, Maria Langan-Riekhof, Tuesday, senior intelligence officials told Fox News Digital.

Fox News Digital reached out Langan-Riekhof for comment and did not immediately hear back, and couldn't immediately find contact information for Collins.

Collins also has whistleblower complaints against him for political bias and "deliberately undermining the incoming Trump administration," officials said.

I wonder if they were members of #TheResistance...?

Hm, seems likely:

They added that Collins was closely associated with Michael Morrell, the former deputy director of the CIA who worked to write a public letter in 2020 claiming that Hunter Biden's laptop had "all the classic earmarks of a Russian information operation," and to get signatures from top ex-intelligence officials.

As for Langan-Reikhof, officials said she has been a "key advocate" for diversity, equity and inclusion initiatives, and is someone who whistleblowers allege is "radically opposed to Trump."

Meanwhile, Gabbard is moving the National Intelligence Council from the CIA to the Office of the Director of National Intelligence to "directly hold accountable any improper action and politicization of intelligence," Fox News Digital has learned.

Many intel community leakers are "career bureaucrats that are entrenched in Washington politics," officials said.

"It takes time to weed them out and fire them," one official told Fox News Digital, adding that "plans to eliminate non-essential offices within ODNI that we know are housing deep state leakers are underway."

...

The moves come as Gabbard has taken steps to root out leakers and alleged "deep state holdovers" who officials say are politicizing intelligence analysis and "trying to sabotage President Trump's agenda."

...

So far, Gabbard has referred three intelligence community professionals to the Department of Justice for criminal prosecution over alleged leaks of classified information. Fox News Digital first reported on those criminal referrals in April.

An ODNI official at that time told Fox News Digital that the intelligence community professionals allegedly leaked classified information to the Washington Post and The New York Times.

John Brennan went on MSNBC to nearly cry about it, which means:

Direct Hit. Deep State agents uncovered.

Nick Arama:

If John Brennan is livid, you know it's a good thing. That's the only worth of anything he says. If he hates it, you know then it's a great thing. It's like an "Inverse Cramer" reaction.

Alexa Henning, Gabbard's Deputy Chief of Staff, skewered him -- "Idk I feel like he should sit this one out" -- then posted a picture of The Guardian headlines of the 2014 CIA spying scandal of Senate staff under Brennan.

Even Democrats were furious about the scandal in 2014, but then there were no effective consequences beyond an apology.

By the way: Completely unrelated, apropos of nothing, but murder rates in Denver and Aurora, Colorado are plummeting now that Tren de Aragua members have been deported.

Todd Huston for Breitbart:

New data shows that homicides in Denver and Aurora, Colorado, have experienced a significant drop in the wake of Immigration and Customs Enforcement's (ICE) efforts to take down the Tren de Aragua gang members that had been causing so much chaos in the area.

But local Americans are still being killed by President Joe Biden's migrants, including a 24-year-old woman killed in July of 2024 in Aurora by a 15-year-old reckless illegal-migrant driver. The local prosecutor just offered a sweetheart probation and community service deal to the youth migrant who is now applying for humanitarian asylum.

The numbers have taken a significant downturn in the first quarter of 2025, according to data from the Major Cities Chiefs Association, KSUA-TV reported.

Homicides in Denver declined 58 percent during the first three months over the same time last year, and nearby Aurora saw a 36 percent decline during the same period.

Aurora Police Chief Todd Chamberlin added that all crime is down in his city.

"The City of Aurora and Aurora PD are actually in a really good spot right now. Our crime numbers are down 22.8% overall," Chamberlin said.

The Trump administration made the Denver area an important focal point of immigration removals. Even as the president was being inaugurated, ICE had moved in to arrest 538 illegal aliens in cities including Denver.

ICE quickly announced an expansion of efforts in Colorado to target members of the violent Venezuelan street gang, Tren de Aragua.

But even as the administration ramped up its efforts to pick up as many of these dangerous criminals as possible, Democrats such as Denver Mayor Mike Johnston and Colorado Gov. Jared Polis worked to thwart the president's efforts. The Trump administration even moved to sue Denver and state officials over the obstruction of federal immigration enforcement.

I'm sure it's all a coincidence.

Let's bring all of these Maryland Men back to Colorado.
