TL;DR

Tulsi Gabbard announced she will resign as Director of National Intelligence, effective June 30, 2026, to care for her husband Abraham Williams after he was diagnosed with an extremely rare form of bone cancer. President Trump said Aaron Lukas will serve as acting DNI. Her tenure had at times clashed with the White House over Iran policy, and she pledged a smooth transition as she steps away from public service.
