Since assuming office as Director of National Intelligence in February 2025, Tulsi Gabbard has initiated a comprehensive restructuring of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI), aiming to enhance efficiency and restore public trust in the intelligence community. Under her leadership, ODNI has undergone a significant downsizing, with plans to reduce its workforce by over 40% and cut the annual budget by more than $700 million. This initiative, termed "ODNI 2.0," includes the elimination of several offices, such as the Foreign Malign Influence Center and the Cyber Threat Intelligence Integration Center, which Gabbard identified as redundant or politicized. Additionally, she has revoked the security clearances of 37 current and former officials, citing unauthorized leaks and politicization of intelligence. Gabbard has also emphasized the importance of civil liberties, launching a whistleblower hotline to ensure accountability within the intelligence community. Her actions reflect a commitment to depoliticizing intelligence operations and focusing on core national security priorities.
