In a series of powerful and revealing posts on X (formerly Twitter), Tulsi Gabbard, Director of National Intelligence, pulled back the curtain on a dangerous and growing issue within the federal government: Deep State leakers. These individuals, particularly within the Intelligence Community (IC), have been leaking sensitive and classified information that threatens to undermine American national security, all while serving political agendas. Gabbard has now pledged to expose and hold accountable those responsible for compromising the nation’s security.

Leaks within the government have been a longstanding issue, and while the Trump administration certainly faced its share of leaks, the Biden administration is no stranger to the problem either. Leakers within the federal bureaucracy, particularly in the IC, have not only been violating the trust of the American people but also putting American lives at risk. One particularly disturbing case involved leaks from within the FBI, which may have been aiding dangerous criminal gangs like Tren de Aragua by preventing ICE from doing its job.

In her posts, Gabbard, who has long been a strong critic of the “Deep State,” made it clear that politically motivated leaks would no longer be tolerated under her watch. She stated, “Our nation’s Intelligence Community must be focused on our national security mission. Politically motivated leaks undermine our national security and the trust of the American people, and will not be tolerated.”

Gabbard pointed out that leaks had become so common in recent years that they now happen with almost no fear of repercussions. In the past, these leaks would have resulted in swift investigations and consequences, but under the current regime, the perpetrators have operated with impunity. Gabbard made a bold promise to put an end to this. “Unfortunately, such leaks have become commonplace with no investigation or accountability. That ends now. We know of and are aggressively pursuing recent leakers from within the Intelligence Community and will hold them accountable,” she vowed.

She went on to provide a few examples of recent unauthorized leaks, underscoring the breadth of the problem. These included leaks to prominent media outlets like the *Huffington Post*, *Washington Post*, *NBC*, and *The Record*. These leaks, she explained, have covered sensitive matters like U.S. relations with Israel, Iran, and Russia, as well as classified activities within the National Counterintelligence and Security Center (NCSC).

The consequences for these actions, Gabbard made clear, would be severe. “Any unauthorized release of classified information is a violation of the law and will be treated as such,” she concluded. There would be no special treatment for the leakers, and they would face the full brunt of the law, including the possibility of serious jail time for those who betrayed the trust of their fellow citizens.

Gabbard’s stance has garnered support from conservatives across the nation, with many commentators demanding even harsher punishments for the offenders. One user on X called for Attorney General Pam Barr to prosecute those involved in “sedition and/or treason” during the first Trump administration, noting that such actions should set an example for the current crop of leakers. Other comments echoed similar sentiments, with one suggesting that former FBI officials like Comey and McCabe, who had been accused of leaking information, should have been charged years ago.

Perhaps the most powerful and chilling message came from a commenter who called for treason charges against anyone found guilty of leaking. “Anyone leaking information should be charged with treason,” they wrote. “This puts our brave men on the field in huge danger and our National Security at risk. Expose every leaker.”

The message is clear: The American people will not stand for this flagrant betrayal of trust, and it is time for those responsible to face the full force of the law. Gabbard’s vow to hold the Deep State accountable is a call for justice, one that resonates deeply with those who believe national security should never be compromised for political gain. As this investigation continues, Americans are watching closely, waiting for the accountability that has been too long in coming.
