Gabbard "Forced Out" as Intelligence Chief — The Last Iran War Skeptic Exits the White House
DNI Tulsi Gabbard resigned citing her husband's cancer diagnosis — but a source told Reuters she was forced out. Gabbard had testified that Iran was not building a nuclear weapon, which Trump publicly called "wrong" before launching strikes anyway. She was sidelined from war decisions, absent from key meetings, on a beach in Hawaii during the Venezuela attack. Her departure removes the last prominent anti-interventionist voice from Trump's inner circle. She is the fourth Cabinet official to leave.
