Well, well, well—look who finally got what was coming to them. Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard just dropped the hammer on 51 so-called “intelligence experts” who peddled the biggest political hoax of the 2020 election: the Hunter Biden laptop cover-up. Turns out, when you abuse your security clearance to manipulate an election, there are consequences—at least in a Trump administration.
Gabbard, who has quickly become one of the strongest and most effective figures in President Trump’s cabinet, made it official: the clearances of James Clapper, John Brennan, Mike Hayden, and Leon Panetta—among other deep-state regulars—have been permanently revoked. That means the same intelligence officials who used their credentials to lie to the American public about Hunter Biden’s laptop in order to protect Joe Biden’s campaign will no longer have access to classified information. And honestly? Good riddance.
But it gets even better. Gabbard didn’t stop with the 51 signers of that infamous letter. She also stripped security clearances from former Secretary of State Antony Blinken, Biden’s National Security Advisor Jake Sullivan, and two of the most rabid anti-Trump lawfare warriors: New York Attorney General Letitia James and Manhattan DA Alvin Bragg. These people spent years weaponizing the legal system against President Trump, and now they’ll be learning firsthand what it feels like to be on the receiving end of accountability.
And the cherry on top? Former President Joe Biden—yes, the guy who supposedly got more votes than any president in history—is officially cut off from receiving his Daily Brief. Not that he was actually processing any of that intelligence anyway, but now it’s official. No more top-secret briefings for a man who probably spent more time asking “Where am I?” than actually governing.
“Per [President Trump’s] directive, I have revoked security clearances and barred access to classified information for Antony Blinken, Jake Sullivan, Lisa Monaco, Mark Zaid, Norman Eisen, Letitia James, Alvin Bragg, and Andrew Weissman, along with the 51 signers of the Hunter Biden ‘disinformation’ letter,” Gabbard stated.
“The President’s Daily Brief is no longer being provided to former President Biden.”
This all stems from an executive order Trump signed on day one of his second term—a clear message that election interference, particularly from within our own intelligence agencies, will no longer be tolerated. The order didn’t just revoke clearances; it also demanded recommendations for disciplinary action against anyone involved in that disgraceful attempt to mislead the American public.
And what’s truly laughable is watching these intelligence “experts” scramble to rewrite history. Clapper, the same guy who spent years pushing the Russian collusion hoax, now claims his letter was “distorted.” Apparently, all they were doing was “raising a yellow flag” about possible disinformation. Right. Because when you put your signature on an official-sounding statement just weeks before an election, knowing full well the media will weaponize it to suppress a story, that’s just an innocent “yellow flag,” right?
Then there’s Douglas Wise, another former CIA official who flat-out admitted that he and his buddies knew the laptop was real but signed the letter anyway. Translation: they lied to help Joe Biden win the election. And now, thanks to Gabbard, they’re finally facing consequences.
This move sends a clear message: the intelligence community is not above the law. They don’t get to manipulate elections, suppress legitimate news stories, and then walk away without repercussions. For years, they’ve acted like an unaccountable fourth branch of government, but under Trump, that era is over.
Oh, and as if Gabbard’s week wasn’t already eventful enough, she also made headlines last month by revoking clearances and terminating the employment of over 100 individuals who were using a National Security Agency chat system to discuss pornographic LGBT content. You can’t make this stuff up. Under Biden, the intelligence community was apparently too busy chatting about that nonsense to actually protect America. No wonder the world was falling apart.
This is exactly why Trump was re-elected—to clean house. The deep state is finally being dismantled, and Tulsi Gabbard is proving to be one of the most effective allies in draining the swamp. If the intelligence community wants to earn back the trust of the American people, they can start by remembering that their job is national security—not playing politics.
