Trump intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard disputes claims she delayed complaint release

Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard denied claims of blocking a whistleblower complaint, stating she acted immediately upon notification of security guidance needs. The complaint, filed last May, alleged political interference in intelligence dissemination. Gabbard asserted that inspectors general did not find the complaint credible and that the 21-day relay requirement only applies to urgent and credible complaints.
