Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard has a week left in office, but her enemies are bracing for her final act before she concludes her unique 16-month leadership that strained the intelligence community.

Gabbard’s final bow, the Daily Mail can reveal, is expected to be the public release of secret intelligence documents surrounding COVID-19 origins, gain-of-function research, and Anthony Fauci's coverup of the pandemic's origin. She is also planning additional transparency surrounding the CIA's MKUltra mind-control program.

The timing is no accident. Gabbard delayed her resignation by a month after announcing in May that she was stepping down to care for her husband Abraham, who has been diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer. 

Allies say she had unfinished business.

The quest has already provoked a confrontation. Whistleblower James Erdman III, a former CIA officer, claims the agency retrieved 40 boxes of files related to JFK assassination records and MKUltra declassification efforts, a claim the CIA disputes.

MKUltra, launched in the 1950s, used psychedelic drugs, hypnosis and electroshock therapy in pursuit of mind control techniques. 

Much of the documentary records were destroyed in 1972 when CIA Director Richard Helms ordered files shredded after President Nixon announced his intention to replace him.

What remains classified and what exactly Gabbard intends to release is still unknown.

Last Friday’s dump of declassified documents surrounding biolabs in Ukraine were particularly sensitive and a priority for Gabbard since 2022, when she was excoriated by then-Senator Mitt Romney of Utah for ‘parroting false Russian propaganda.’

The released documents confirmed 120 US-funded or owned biolabs in 30 countries many of which she said were manufacturing and manipulating infectious diseases, a claim that was widely ridiculed as Russian propaganda just four years earlier.

Gabbard’s leadership at ODNI, with the goal of creating real oversight of the CIA strained her relationship with Trump's close ally - CIA Director John Ratcliffe. 

That created a sense of tension and mistrust as agency officials became more territorial, sources told the Daily Mail.

The CIA felt that the DNI was responsible for intelligence leaks. And the DNI believed that the CIA was resistant or openly hostile to some of their investigations, which were a priority for the President and the public. 

Previous directors of the DNI served as agents of the existing national intelligence establishment, usually working in tandem with the CIA.

But Trump had a burning desire for revenge against the ‘deep state’ officials that led him and his family through hell over ‘Russiagate’ and beyond.

The President had also committed to significant disclosure during his 2024 presidential campaign, promising podcaster Joe Rogan he would release the rest of the JFK files.

Ultimately, Gabbard was determined to unveil some of the closely guarded intelligence secrets that had created mistrust in the government for over half a century.

Last year, Gabbard released files demonstrating what she described as ‘treasonous conspiracy’ detailing Obama and Biden-era intelligence officials weaponizing their findings to politically damage President Donald Trump. 

In April, Gabbard sent criminal referrals to the Department of Justice regarding two former officials for misusing intelligence to launch Trump’s first impeachment trial in 2019.
