Tulsi Gabbard resigns as director of national intelligence.
00:00:36.680
A lot of people were, you know, creating rumors that this may be coming up,
00:00:59.580
Tulsi Gabbard will be leaving the administration on June 30th.
00:01:01.920
Her wonderful husband, Abraham, has recently diagnosed with a rare form of bone cancer,
00:01:05.280
and she rightfully wants to be with him, bringing him back to good health
00:01:08.760
as they currently fight a tough battle together.
00:01:12.120
I have no doubt he will soon be better than ever.
00:01:14.360
Tulsi has done an incredible job, and we will miss her.
00:01:17.520
Her highly respected principal deputy director of national intelligence, Aaron Lucas,
00:01:21.600
will serve as the acting director of national intelligence, President Donald J. Trump.
00:01:27.900
Again, going back to the people that were just like automatically, Pat,
00:01:35.520
It's like her husband and our prayers go to this guy and their families
00:01:50.060
We're going to pray for her husband and hope that it gets,
00:01:53.800
Okay, but the fact that everybody automatically,
00:01:55.600
or everybody who was it Laura Loomer everybody like good riddance and good it's like shame on
00:02:00.880
anybody that was out there talking crap about her or her job or what she's doing my dude this is a
0.53
00:02:06.180
girl that what left her party to come to to help the president and I don't know if anybody else
0.90
00:02:11.760
is complaining about how safe and national intelligence I feel pretty damn safe with her
00:02:16.100
at the helm and she's stepping down all I can say Pat is she did a great job God bless her and I hope
00:02:20.360
the future for her and for her husband is good adam i'll just say this as someone that my
00:02:26.360
significant other my ex-girlfriend did have to go through cancer and i know what it's like and
00:02:30.740
this is her husband so i'll just say this that some things are bigger than politics some things
00:02:35.800
are bigger than business some things are bigger than anything in life and i'm just going to take
00:02:39.900
it at face value here that she legitimately stepped down because her husband abraham is
00:02:45.360
fighting a severe form of, extremely rare form of bone cancer. So some things are just what they
00:02:51.700
are. I'm sure there's going to be ridiculous storylines out there from the left and the right
00:02:56.300
questioning what her loyalty is and what her agenda is. For me, until I hear anything substantive
00:03:02.560
and different, I'm just going to say respect to you, Tulsi. Thank you for your service to this
00:03:07.960
country. I hope you and your husband get through this. I hope he gets through this. And as someone
00:03:16.660
Pat, just really, really quick because you hit on it
00:03:34.540
for the person, okay, because I'm pretty sure he's going to be
00:03:36.540
going through chemo and stuff. Do you think this is
00:03:42.320
Do you think this is the main reason why she stepped down?
00:03:46.720
I think Tulsi played a very important role in 2024 when she joined the team.
00:03:51.740
I think Tulsi played a very important role, her and RFK,
00:03:54.620
very, very important role while they were campaigning.
00:04:00.080
Do I think this is the number one reason why they're stepping down?
00:04:06.800
And I hate to be the guy that's going to go take that position,
00:04:13.220
So there were very credible news reports coming out over the last two weeks that the CIA had pulled back documentation,
00:04:19.260
the hard copy files that DNI had pulled in, and Tulsi wanted to declassify documents.
00:04:25.720
Remember, that was one of the discussion points and one of the promises, associated promises, that was made to the American people,
00:04:32.100
that we're going to be declassifying documents, we're going to be putting truth out there.
00:04:35.240
And supposedly, Tulsi Gabbard and DNI were in the process of declassifying, two weeks ago I think it was,
00:04:45.820
Now, then they came out and said, no, no, our office wasn't raided.
00:04:50.800
There were credible news media out there that said the CIA pulled back documents.
00:05:00.300
But there was there was too much around this and too many people quoted and too many folks that were on top of this,
00:05:07.260
like Anna Paulina Luna that were saying, wait a minute, we can't be doing this.
00:05:12.660
So that didn't come out definitive, but there was too much talking about it.
00:05:18.740
If that's what was going on, that would mean that somebody is out there trying to frustrate
00:05:25.840
And if she was facing a silent war inside the, let's call the CIA what it is, establishment,
00:05:33.460
and she's out there trying to do her job, I could totally see that weighing on her.
00:05:43.520
I hope the Lord gives you great peace and strength during this time, Tulsi.
00:05:50.500
But if that was on there at the same time, I could see it coming together where she says,
00:05:56.120
I'll just address sort of the opinion that you kind of shared, which is, all right, I said, listen, I'm taking this on face value that she went with her husband.
00:06:07.880
At the same time, there is a chance that she's stepping away to, as they say, spend more time with the family, which was sort of planned.
00:06:16.540
She might have been on her way out anyway, allegedly, and then this might have just been the icing on the cake, so to speak.
00:06:23.180
so it's almost like what came first the chicken or the egg but i do understand exactly what you're
00:06:27.800
saying is like she was also skating on thin ice some may say with the president yeah here's what
00:06:33.300
i'll here's what i'll say the most important thing almost like the iran deal not even terms of deal
00:06:37.940
what will iran actually do when the deal is done the question is when he's god help him uh healed
00:06:45.740
what will she do next will she go the the stay aligned with trump loyalist route or will she go
00:06:52.560
the burn it all to the ground Joe Kent Thomas Massey route that to me is the question yeah so
00:06:58.480
so this this is I don't think that's the number one reason I think it's either you know because
00:07:05.360
DNI you have to realize DNI is above CIA yeah DNI is above CIA I think it heads DNI over like
00:07:13.200
18 different agencies so it's not like the the you think CIA likes being under DNI
00:07:35.780
Yeah, so I don't know if they like giving up that much power to somebody that comes in.
00:07:47.020
Let's just kind of speculate because you're like, oh, my God, yeah, this is what I think.
00:07:53.700
The reason why she stepped down is husband challenges, cancer.
1.00
00:08:02.900
And we've been around business for a long time where things happen and people have to step away and go through things.
00:08:09.340
Number two is she felt like she couldn't get the job done.
00:08:13.680
and she was kind of her arms her hands were you know tied behind her back and she couldn't do
00:08:18.720
anything number three is that that whole issue that happened with joe kent stepping down and
00:08:25.820
there was a story of joe kent going and meeting with tulsi and also jd i don't know if you remember
00:08:31.720
when that story was released there was a story about the fact that the three of them had a
00:08:35.780
meeting together before his tweet and his resignation and they held a file for several
00:08:40.420
months in the safe in her office yeah so that you know that is automatically get you to you think
00:08:47.340
the president's automatically going to trust you I don't know if he's going to trust with that
00:08:51.520
taking place so he gave you the job and then that's what happens and then joking comes talks
00:08:56.420
to you and then when Tulsi was asked multiple times during the hearing if you remember the
00:09:01.060
answer she gave I don't know if you remember the answer she gave she said the president do you agree
00:09:05.800
with the president's decision and and then she said the president made the decision based on
00:09:11.960
the intel that we shared with them it's not the answer it was do you agree with the president's
00:09:17.260
decision do you stand with this i do director do you agree with the president make the makes
00:09:22.460
the decision why do you guys even have jobs right so it was there was something that happened to
00:09:27.840
you rob can you play is it that clip i don't know it could have been that clip play the clip
00:09:31.940
Only the president, the only person who can determine what is an imminent threat is the president of the United States.
00:09:47.560
Director Ratcliffe, do you agree with that assessment?
00:09:51.420
That the president is the only person that can determine if something is an imminent threat or not?
00:09:56.420
There's a moment where she says he made the decision based on the information we shared with him.
00:10:03.640
And then they asked, but do you agree with the president?
00:10:10.860
So it wasn't an affirmative decision to defend.
00:10:13.960
Now, you know, in her defense, Caroline Levitt stood in front of her.
00:10:19.900
And if you remember that, Caroline Levitt defended her.
00:10:23.180
Do you guys remember that day when Caroline Levitt defended her?
00:10:26.440
Caroline Leavitt stood in the front and said, you know what?
00:10:29.000
She is doing a great job, and, you know, she's doing this, and it's the media,
00:10:32.460
and, you know, all this other stuff, and she kind of, not this one.
00:10:34.860
There's one where, if you just tap in Caroline Leavitt and Tulsi,
00:10:38.440
and Caroline Leavitt and Tulsi, you will see there was a moment where
00:10:42.520
she's standing in front of Tulsi and defending her.
00:10:47.380
I don't know if there is a, Trump's got two more years left, let's face it, right?
00:10:51.300
A little over two more years, two and a half more years left to get things done.
00:10:55.000
But if all of a sudden you feel like you're working with somebody who doesn't side with you and doesn't agree with you, and maybe you can't trust 100 percent, maybe he has to make a move.
00:11:04.940
And Trump doesn't have a problem firing people.
00:11:06.620
He move on in a heartbeat and go get somebody else and see who needs to be there.
00:11:11.480
I don't know where there is, but I have a hard time with this one just thinking it's dropping for that.
00:11:19.780
You know some people when they get a feeling they're about to get fired, and they typically quit before just to save face?
00:11:30.880
Yeah, she rode in the president's car with him,
00:11:35.160
And then you have Tulsi that is going through this.
00:11:38.440
So I think there's more to this story than we think.
00:11:44.040
and apparently it's just going to be the deputy director,
00:11:46.300
Aaron Lucas, so prepared to get familiar with his name
00:11:54.200
right there l-u-k-a-s aaron lucas he's going to be the new fyi director just so you know
00:12:00.040
she is on that list of people that a lot of people think in 2028 she may run and team up with jd so
00:12:08.700
jd tulsi jd president uh tulsi vp so don't the non-intervention side yeah on the non-intervention
00:12:16.980
side and there there's a there's a community that's building up for that i think her you know
00:12:22.560
I think her political future is certainly bright.
00:12:26.240
We'll just see how aligned she is with Trump or not.
00:12:29.680
That's what we're going to see over time, in my opinion.
00:12:34.460
and so we'll see what's going to happen with that.
00:12:35.940
She's definitely a player, but we'll see what happens.
00:12:37.940
We officially have our speakers for the vault conference finalized,
00:12:43.620
and the last one I literally got the confirmation last night at 8 p.m.,
00:12:47.680
7 p.m.-ish when I got the texts that were done, done.
00:12:51.100
And I wanted to make sure we put an event together where we talk about
00:12:55.220
everything that's going on with AI, the good, bad, the ugly,
00:13:03.440
I wanted to talk about the importance of having running mates because for me,
00:13:07.960
winning at the highest level, you need a running mate.
00:13:13.580
So I brought two people that ran together and won multiple championships
00:13:18.940
And then I wanted to bring somebody that your sons,
00:13:21.060
a lot of you guys are bringing their sons and their kids on social media
00:13:25.500
Maybe the guy that was able to do this at the highest level
00:13:28.000
and he's one of the biggest names right now on social media,
00:13:31.460
who's very successful, made a lot of money as well.
00:13:33.780
And last but not least, one of the biggest podcasters in the world
00:13:37.500
who does it in a way that's very different than everybody else,
00:13:42.080
He's got almost 20 million subscribers on his YouTube channel.
00:13:44.540
With that being said, these are the speakers at the Vol Conference 2026.
00:14:09.240
I've helped over 10,000 business owners grow and scale their companies.
00:14:13.440
I'm just passionate about watching entrepreneurs create great business.
00:14:29.120
and that delusion is sometimes also referred to a self-belief
00:14:55.880
If you haven't yet registered, listen, CO tickets, which there's only 500 of,
00:15:08.280
We have companies that are bringing, one company from France is bringing 500
00:15:21.080
A lot of guys bring their family, their partners,
00:15:22.960
and also with some of you that want to have your kids learning on how to
00:15:27.620
create content the way that Logan and Jake Paul have,
00:15:31.040
and they became who they are today with their businesses,
00:15:39.700
It'll be the greatest vault conference we've ever had.
