U.S. intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard has closed a task force she created last year to address politicization in intelligence agencies. She informed Reuters on Tuesday about the shutdown. The task force aimed to examine biases in intelligence operations. However, critics said the group served as a political tool under the Trump administration. Despite these concerns, the task force operated until recently. The closure marks an end to a controversial initiative. Gabbard did not detail future steps following the shutdown. Meanwhile, the intelligence community continues efforts to maintain impartiality. The debate over politicization in intelligence remains active. This development may influence related scrutiny and reforms.
This task force’s closure signals shifts in oversight strategies within U.S. intelligence. It reflects ongoing tensions around political influence in national security operations.
