Tulsi Gabbard says she is ‘aggressively pursuing’ national security leaks to media
Tulsi Gabbard said Friday that the Trump administration will aggressively investigate people in U.S. spy agencies who leak information to the public,
citing recent stories on national security topics in The Washington Post and other news outlets.
Gabbard, who coordinates the work of 18 U.S. intelligence agencies, said in a statement that what she termed “politically motivated leaks” undermine national security
“and will not be tolerated.”
“Unfortunately, such leaks have become commonplace with no investigation or accountability.
That ends now,” she said.
“We know of and are aggressively pursuing recent leakers from within the Intelligence Community and will hold them accountable.”
In posts on X, Gabbard cited reporting by HuffPost, The Post, NBC and the Record as
“recent examples of unauthorized leaks.”
In The Post’s case, she cited “information on Israel/Iran,”
an apparent reference to a report last month on U.S. intelligence analysis of Israel’s preparation for a possible strike on Iran’s nuclear facilities.
