DNI Tulsi Gabbard Launches Task Force Focused on De-Politicizing U.S. Intelligence Agencies [Does Gabbard read Intel Today?]

“We are committed to focusing the intelligence community on its core mission: ensuring our security by providing the president and policymakers with timely, apolitical, objective, and relevant intelligence to inform their decision-making — to ensure the safety, security, and freedom of the American people.”

April 10, 2025 — The Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has announced the formation of a new task force aimed at eliminating the politicization of America’s intelligence agencies. Quite logically, she will begin by investigating recent episodes where intelligence appears to have been weaponized. Follow us on Twitter: @Intel_Today

The task force’s mission includes declassifying information in the public interest and improving the efficiency and accountability of intelligence operations.

Among the key topics under review for possible declassification and public release, one finds:

1) The origins of the coronavirus pandemic

2) The intelligence community’s investigations into health incidents linked to “Havana Syndrome”

3) The investigation into Russia’s interference in the 2016 U.S. election

The task force may also recommend the release of long-classified documents concerning the assassinations of Martin Luther King Jr. and Robert F. Kennedy — materials which President Trump had previously ordered declassified.

In addition to transparency efforts, the group will offer recommendations to reduce wasteful spending and cut unnecessary bureaucracy within the intelligence community.

The overlap between her focus areas and the Intel Today dossier archive is striking. Of course, neither the Lockerbie and UTA 772 ‘bombings’ nor the assassination of Dag Hammarskjöld are currently on her shortlist — but I forgive her. She is a young woman.

And, as I always say, once she begins to dig into the Havana Syndrome hoax, the truth about Pan Am 103 and UTA 772 will surface to haunt the perpetrators.

Besides, with the upcoming trial of Masud and the verdict in the Sarkozy case, these stories are bound to return to the spotlight.

Truth never dies.

For the record — The expression “Havana Syndrome” was coined by Dr. Ludwig De Braeckeleer and appeared for the first time in a story published by the Intel Today blog on October 3 2017. [Here is the tweet] Why would Wikipedia dispute such a simple fact?

“In a time of deceit, telling the truth is a revolutionary act.”
