What Gabbard's ODNI cuts mean for U.S. intelligence agencies

Season 2025 Episode 233 | 7m 31s

The Trump administration announced that the Office of the Director of National Intelligence would cut 40% of its staff. Tulsi Gabbard claims ODNI is "inefficient" and "rife with abuse." The office was created after 9/11 to coordinate the 17 intelligence agencies. Amna Nawaz discussed more with Sue Gordon, principal deputy director of national intelligence at the ODNI from 2017 to 2019.
