For so many years now, the American intelligence community has been methodically hijacked by left-wing operatives working from the inside to sabotage political dissidents and cover up regime corruption. The left didn’t just politicize intelligence; they fully and totally weaponized it. And while the damage they’ve done to public trust and constitutional order could take decades to undo, someone has to start the cleanup… And Tulsi Gabbard just did.
As Trump’s acting Director of National Intelligence, Gabbard is taking a flamethrower to one of the worst corners of the intelligence swamp: the National Intelligence Council. And according to senior officials, the people she just fired weren’t just bureaucrats; they were anti-Trump, anti-America First radicals embedded deep inside one of the most sensitive parts of the US government.
The first Deep State operative to get canned was Mike Collins. This is the same guy who ran in circles with spooks who pushed the lie that Hunter Biden’s laptop was “Russian disinformation.”
Michael Collins: "When you study intelligence, human lives are on the line…”
Here’s Michael speaking at SIPA:

Next to go was Collins’ right-hand lady, Maria Langan-Riekhof. Together, the two operated as an anti-Trump sabotage force inside the intelligence community.
Like Mike, Maria had that unmistakable Deep State air, the polished, out-of-touch elitism that’s become all too familiar among the ruling class.

According to an exclusive report from Fox News Digital, Gabbard made her move this week to restore order within the US intelligence community, gutting a deeply politicized network that’s been actively working to sabotage President Trump since 2016.
Fox News:
EXCLUSIVE: 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.
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.
Tulsi is determined to clean up the NIA—and she knows that removing these radical operatives is the first step toward restoring integrity and accountability. Fox News goes on:
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.”
Tulsi’s takedown of Mike and Maria is a major step in the right direction, but don’t forget: this is just the tip of the iceberg. The weaponization of US intelligence is a titanic-sized glacier, and we’re only starting to see what’s lurking beneath the surface.
The good news is that when you’ve got bloated Deep Staters like John Brennan foaming at the mouth, you know you’re doing something right. The moment Brennan got wind of Collins and Langan-Riekhof getting canned, he practically blew a gasket.

It took decades to build this corrupt machine. Dismantling it won’t happen overnight. But at least now, someone’s finally turning the wheel in the right direction. Let’s hope Tulsi keeps it up; we need a lot more of this.
More WINNING!! GOOD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Tusli was lied to, BIG TIME, regarding Syria, by these clowns - she will never forget that and will make life miserable for them.
So he’s gonna defend these fired people by spelling out their long standing status in the Intel community and their direct proximity to the crimes that are finally esposed.
Right! He’s telling us how great they are at deep state crimes because they have not been monitored and caught ... YET?? That’s some defense!
BTTT
John Brennan is 69 and his security clearance has been pulled. Why should he care about the spook biz anymore?
💯
John Brennan is 69?
He looks closer to 99!.......
I’m older than he is and I don’t look that old!............
If Brennan “blew a gasket,” you know you just hit the target.
Finally, keep it up Tulsi !
Love it!
The Israeli’s had 40 years in the desert... Trump had four years in hell. While Trump was in hell all the evil people above him revealed themselves to him. Once Trump emerged back into the light, he threw down his torch and employed the Flame Thrower, aka Tulsi.
Short by about 100,000 bureaucrats but it is a start.
“It takes time to weed them out and fire them,”

I wonder if the process is proactive or reactive.
I suspect that many of the political hacks who haven’t already stuck their neck out in the past and made themselves obvious are going to retreat into their bunker of false moderacy and pseudo-professionalism until the Trump/Gabbard storm blows over.
when you’ve got bloated Deep Staters like John Wahhabi Islamist convert Brennan foaming at the mouth, you know you’re doing something right.
revive exile dammit. these people are traitors! if we are removing mojados until Alien Sedition, why arent’t we removing goddamn Communists! if a mojado says he’s a Communist per the INA out he goes!
Anything makes John Brennan mad is good for America.
Even when not fully understanding a situation, I’m certain of that.
