Whistleblower says intel chief hid call with foreign power
A whistleblower’s allegations against Trump’s Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard have finally been revealed. After a Washington process hid the details for a week following an unnamed whistleblower said he would publish them if they continued to be hidden, the allegations have finally been made public — and they are dynamite.
In spring 2025, the US National Security Agency (NSA) detected a call between a party identified as a foreign intelligence figure and a person described as very close to Trump. The NSA informed Gabbard, but instead of following normal distribution process, Gabbard blocked it. She then printed a copy and took it to Trump’s chief of staff Susie Wiles — all according to Andrew Bakaj, the whistleblower’s lawyer.
After meeting Wiles, Gabbard told the NSA to kill the report’s publication and told it to send all information only to her office.
A spokesperson for Gabbard’s office denied the accusation as “baseless” and claimed it was politically motivated. However, the communications between Gabbard and the NSA — and Wiles’s receipt for the intelligence report — were sent directly to the Guardian. Gabbard was once a Trump critic, but changed her tune after Trump appointed her as DNI.
Joining the dots, many are publicly linking the ‘foreign intelligence’ service to confirmations in the latest Epstein file release that Donald Trump is “compromised by Israel”, including former political candidate Melanie D’Arrigo:
Tulsi Gabbard and the White House killed a whistleblower report that someone close to Trump was talking to foreign intelligence.
Trump and his inner circle are in the Epstein files, and likely controlled through blackmail by foreign intelligence.
The whole Trump administration…
