Tulsi Gabbard fires 100+ NSA officials involved in sexually graphic secret group chat

Gabbard said this is just the beginning of cleaning out the Deep State.
Around 100 intelligence community officials who participated in a secret sex group chat on a National Security Agency platform while ostensibly on the clock will be fired and lose their security clearances, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard announced.
Gabbard’s statement follows a new report from investigative journalist Christopher Rufo that exposed a National Security Agency chatroom where polyamory and transgender surgeries were discussed while fantasizing about having hermaphrodite babies and condemning Christians, as LifeSiteNews recently reported.
“There are over 100 people from across the intelligence community that contributed to and participated in this … egregious violation of trust,” Gabbard told Fox News host Jesse Waters last night in response to his question about the “transgender sex chat.”
“I put out a directive today that they all will be terminated and their security clearances will be revoked,” Gabbard said.
However, there are larger problems, saying the revelations and sanctions are “barely scratching the surface.”
“They were brazen in using an NSA platform, intended for professional use, to conduct this kind of really, really horrific behavior,” Gabbard said. “They were brazen in doing this because when was the last time anyone was really held accountable, certainly not over the last four years, certainly not over the last 10, maybe 20 years.”
“Today’s action in holding these individuals accountable is just the beginning of what we’re seeing across the Trump administration” to “clean house” and “rebuild that trust” in federal institutions.
Rufo said the chats were done on taxpayer time and dime as part of the NSA’s commitment to “diversity, equity, and inclusion.”
He wrote in City Journal:
According to our sources, the sex chats were legitimized as part of the NSA’s commitment to “diversity, equity and inclusion.” Activists within the agency used LGBTQ+ “employee resource groups” to turn their kinks and pathologies into official work duties. According to the current NSA employee, these groups “spent all day” recruiting activists and holding meetings with titles such as “Privilege,” “Ally Awareness,” “Pride,” and “Transgender Community Inclusion.” And they did so with the full support of NSA leadership, which declared that DEI was “not only mission critical, but mission imperative.”
Many of the discussions discussed further in Rufo’s article are quite graphic, so LifeSiteNews readers may want to approach with caution.
In the article, Rufo also said a “conflict is coming.”
“These NSA chat logs suggest the presence of at least hundreds of gender activists within the intelligence services who cannot distinguish between male and female, and who believe that discussing castration, polyamory, and ‘gangbangs’ is an appropriate use of public resources,” he wrote. “For psychological and ideological reasons, these kinds of people will not be easily sidelined. The Trump administration should not only dismantle the structure of DEI but also terminate the employees who use it to advance gender activism at the expense of national security.”
The revelation had drawn quick condemnation, as previously reported by LifeSiteNews.
“This behavior is unacceptable and those involved WILL be held accountable,” Gabbard wrote last night. “These disgusting chat groups were immediately shut down when @POTUS issued his EO ending the DEI insanity the Biden Admin was obsessed with. Our IC must be focused on our core mission: ensuring the safety, security, and freedom of the American people.”
Elon Musk compared the chats to criticism of his work with the Department of Government Efficiency to root out corruption and waste.
“On one hand, @DOGE computer nerds review government data to eliminate waste & fraud,” he wrote sarcastically. “On the other hand, demented creeps at intelligence agencies spy on you at will. Which is of greater concern?”
The National Security Agency’s X account also commented on the report last night.
“NSA is aware of posts that appear to show inappropriate discussions by IC personnel,” the agency wrote on X. “IC collaboration platforms are intended to drive mission outcomes. Potential misuse of these platforms by a small group of individuals does not represent the community.”
It said investigations “are ongoing.”

Some departments failed to provide clear descriptions of how the taxpayer funds were used. For example, Prairies Economic Development Canada spent $190.1 million on projects related to diversity, equity and inclusion ventures but could not provide details.
Federal diversity, equity and inclusion programs have cost Canadian taxpayers more than $1 billion since 2016.
According to information published September 18 by Blacklock’s Reporter, diversity, equity and inclusion (DEI) government grants have totaled $1.049 billion since 2016, including grants for “cultural vegetables.”
A $25 million grant, one of the largest individual grants, was given to the Canadian Gay and Lesbian Chamber of Commerce to “strengthen Canada’s entrepreneurship ecosystem to be more accessible to LGBTQ small businesses.”
The government payouts were distributed among 29 departments, ranging from military to agricultural projects.
The Department of Agriculture spent $90,649 for “harvesting, processing and storage of cultural vegetables to strengthen food security in equity-deserving Black communities” in Ontario.
Some departments failed to provide clear descriptions of how the taxpayer funds were used. For example, Prairies Economic Development Canada spent $190.1 million on projects related to diversity, equity and inclusion ventures but could not provide details.
“PrairiesCan conducted a search in our grants and contributions management system using the keywords ‘equity,’ ‘diversity’ and ‘inclusion,’” the Inquiry said. “Certain projects were included where diversity, equity and inclusion were referenced but may not be the main focus of the project.”
DEI projects are presented as efforts by organizations to promote fair treatment, representation, and access to opportunities for people from varied backgrounds. However, the projects are often little more than LGBT propaganda campaigns funded by the Liberal government.
As LifeSiteNews reported, the University of British Columbia Vancouver campus posted an opening for a research chair position that essentially barred non-homosexual white men from applying for the job.
Additionally, during his short time in office, Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney has already shown Canadians that he is a staunch supporter of the LGBT agenda after he spent over $2 million in taxpayer funding on LGBT groups during his first week in office.
Canadians have repeatedly appealed to Liberals to end pro-LGBT DEI mandates, particularly within the education system.
As LifeSiteNews previously reported, in June 2024, 40 Canadian university professors appealed to the Liberal government to abandon DEI initiatives in universities, arguing they are both ineffective and harmful to Canadians.
The uproar over the restaurant chain’s rebrand might appear trivial, but it carries a deeper significance.
Last week, another viral culture war story captured the headlines. The old-timey restaurant chain Cracker Barrel had rebranded, removing the old man and the barrel from its logo, and replacing it with a simple, modernistic, typography-only design.
At first, I dismissed the story as trivial. I have never set foot in a Cracker Barrel and, as such, have little stake in what is emblazoned above its doorways. But after speaking with conservative activist Robby Starbuck, I learned there was something beyond the logo that deserved our attention. According to Starbuck, Cracker Barrel, whose customer base is heavily white, conservative, and rural, had spent the last few years adopting all the fashionable left-wing corporate policies: DEI, Pride, pronouns, race politics, and the rest.
The logo change might have caught the public’s initial attention, but the underlying political story had real stakes. If companies that depend on conservatives adopt radical left-wing policies, they must face the consequences.
And, thanks to the work of Starbuck and others, the social media uproar seems to have made a difference. As the story circulated through the media, the company’s stock price plummeted by as much as 17 percent. Cracker Barrel has quickly walked back its changes.
All this is salutary. Beginning with the revolt against Bud Light, the Right learned how to flex its muscles in the marketplace. Rather than defer to corporations as they did in the past, conservatives have realized that corporations have a culture and must be constantly reminded that, if they deviate from core American values, the consequences will be felt in their bottom line. Starbuck has had enormous success on this point, leading boycott campaigns that have changed policies at Harley-Davidson, Tractor Supply, John Deere, and other major brands.
A number of lessons can be drawn from this experience. First, conservatives can win these culture fights. Second, corporations follow the narrative in the media. Third, behavior changes through reward and punishment.
This last point is especially important. Some might dismiss the Cracker Barrel campaign as minor, or even embarrassing, given that the company is a decidedly down-class brand. But there is enormous value in making an example of the company and cementing a fear that conservatives can spontaneously lash out at any institution that crosses the line. Today, it’s Cracker Barrel; tomorrow it might be Pepsi, Target, or Procter & Gamble. As we have seen in recent years, corporate CEOs are highly sensitive to shifts in public opinion—and marginal changes in revenues—and will drop left-wing policies as soon as they become a liability.
The question is how to gain leverage. We are all tempted to be polite in public. But the fight over corporate culture can’t be won without securing real, tangible victories—which means real, tangible losses for institutions on the other side. Even if we don’t care about Cracker Barrel in particular, we should all care about the ideological capture of American institutions and use whatever power we have to reverse it.
And for that to occur, the Barrel must be broken.
