Hasan Piker Subpoena + Iran Peace Deal? | PBD #805

What was said

"Unfortunately, after having done a great job, Tulsi Gabbard will be leaving the administration on June 30th. Her wonderful husband Abraham has recently been diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer, and she rightfully wants to be with him."

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard resigned effective June 30th, citing her husband's rare bone cancer diagnosis. However, credible reports suggest tensions with the CIA over declassification efforts and allegations that the CIA pulled documents from DNI offices weeks prior. Gabbard faced Senate confirmation hearings where she avoided directly endorsing Trump's Iran strike decisions. Her resignation follows similar exits by Pam Bondi and Kristi Noem.
