Tulsi Gabbard 🌺@TulsiGabbard·
I am deeply grateful for the trust President Trump placed in me and for the opportunity to lead @ODNIgov for the last year and a half. Unfortunately, I must submit my resignation, effective June 30, 2026. My husband, Abraham, has recently been diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. He faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months. At this time, I must step away from public service to be by his side and fully support him through this battle.

We are at a moment that will define President Trump’s legacy. His instincts have been to finish the job he started in Iran, but he is being ill advised to pursue a deal that would not be worth the paper it is written on. Our commander-in-chief needs to allow America's skilled armed forces to finish the destruction of Iran's conventional military capabilities and reopen the strait.   Further pursuit of an agreement with Iran's Islamist regime risks a perception of weakness. We must finish what we started. It is past time for action.

Rep. Gregory Meeks says House leadership is trying to postpone the Iran war powers vote. “They know they’ll lose,” he tells me in the speaker’s lobby, as he rushes back to the floor.

SCOOP: The U.S. has depleted much of its inventory of advanced missile-defense interceptors after expending far more high-end munitions defending Israel than Israeli forces used themselves, per DOD assessments of Operation Epic Fury 🧵

The heavy use of MQ-9 Reaper drones against Iran has come at a cost. Around 30 MQ-9s have been lost in operations against Iran, people familiar with the matter told Air & Space Forces Magazine. Many aircraft were lost to air defenses, though some MQ-9s based in the region were struck while on the ground. Reapers continue to be used in operations against Iran. They are active around the Strait of Hormuz to enforce the ongoing U.S. military blockade against Iranian ports, according to people familiar with the operations. airandspaceforces.com/mq-9-reaper-mv…

Exceptionally strong statement from HASC Chair Mike Rogers on troop reductions in Europe at today's Army hearing: “We are going to mandate that the department follow the statutory minimums that are set in statute on force posture, and if there are attempted deviations, we will remedy them and impose pain when or if they aren't complied with,” Rogers said.
