Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has taken significant actions this week as part of the Trump administration's efforts to reshape the intelligence community. On Tuesday, May 13, 2025, Gabbard fired Mike Collins, the acting chair of the National Intelligence Council, along with his deputy. According to intelligence sources, this move was made to prevent what Gabbard described as the "politicization of intelligence."

Whistleblowers had reportedly labeled these officials as "strongly opposed to Trump," with Collins facing allegations of political bias and "deliberately undermining the incoming Trump administration." The dismissals represent the latest in a series of actions Gabbard has taken since assuming her role as DNI.

Since the beginning of President Trump's first 100 days in office, DNI Gabbard has implemented several significant changes within the intelligence community. She has eliminated diversity, equity, and inclusion programs at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, a move the administration claims has saved taxpayers millions of dollars.

In early April, Gabbard announced the establishment of a task force designed to restore trust in the intelligence community. The Director's Initiatives Group (DIG) was formed to execute President Trump's executive orders aimed at rebuilding confidence in intelligence agencies. The group is specifically focused on investigating what the administration describes as "weaponization" of intelligence, addressing politicization issues, exposing unauthorized disclosures of classified information, and declassifying information deemed to be in the public interest.

Gabbard has also referred certain intelligence officials to the Department of Justice for prosecution over alleged leaks of classified information. Additionally, she has revoked security clearances for individuals accused of abusing public trust for political purposes, in what she describes as an effort to ensure objective intelligence collection and analysis.

The DNI has redirected intelligence community resources toward identifying illegal immigrants with potential terrorist connections and securing the southern border. This shift includes expanding counterterrorism activities to encompass counternarcotics operations and recognizing cartels and transnational gangs as top national security threats.

These actions align with Gabbard's stated mission to focus the intelligence community on what she describes as its core function: "ensuring our security by providing the President and policymakers with timely, apolitical, objective, relevant intelligence to inform their decision-making to ensure the safety, security and freedom of the American people."

However, these changes have not been without controversy. A recent National Intelligence Council memo has reportedly undercut some of the administration's claims regarding immigration, particularly concerning Venezuelan involvement with transnational criminal activities at the southern border.
