Tulsi Gabbard a annoncé sa démission du poste de directrice du renseignement national, effective le 30 juin 2026. Elle a invoqué le diagnostic récent de son mari, Abraham, atteint d'une forme extrêmement rare de cancer des os, comme raison de son départ.

Gabbard s'est engagée à assurer une transition en douceur au bureau du directeur du renseignement national jusqu'à la fin du mois de juin.
