Newly appointed Director of National Intelligence, Tulsi Gabbard, has wasted no time making headlines. Just weeks after taking office under President Donald Trump, she fired over 100 intelligence officers. The reason? Leaked excerpts from LGBTQ+ employee chat groups, framed by far-right activist Christopher Rufo as “transgender sex chats.”
During an interview on Fox News, Gabbard claimed these discussions were “an egregious violation of trust” and revoked security clearances of those involved. On social media, she doubled down, calling the chat groups “disgusting” and linking the firings to Trump’s executive order dismantling Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) programs in federal agencies.
However, these so-called “scandals” were taken from long-standing support spaces for LGBTQ+ intelligence employees. Rufo’s report exaggerated routine discussions about gender identity and workplace challenges, distorting them into sensationalist headlines. The National Security Agency (NSA) has since clarified that the issue was “limited to a small group” and is under internal review.
Gabbard’s move is part of a larger effort to erase LGBTQ+ representation in government. With DEI initiatives already scrapped, the latest crackdown raises serious concerns about the future of workplace inclusivity in federal institutions
