WASHINGTON — Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard submitted her resignation Friday — citing her husband’s recent cancer diagnosis.
Gabbard, a longtime skeptic of US intervention overseas, apparently did not cite the ongoing Iran war in a resignation letter first reported by Fox News.
“Unfortunately, I must submit my resignation, effective June 30, 2026,” she wrote. “My husband, Abraham, has recently been diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer.”
The former Hawaii Democratic congresswoman also thanked President Trump for “the trust you placed in me.”
