Trump's intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard resigns

WASHINGTON, May 23: US intelligence chiefTulsiGabbard announced her resignation on Friday, ending the tenure of a controversial pick who appeared to be at odds with President Donald Trump over the Iran war.
Gabbard, 45, said she was quitting as Director of National Intelligence to care for her husband, Abraham Williams, after he was recently diagnosed with an "extremely rare form of bone cancer."
"He faces major challenges in the coming weeks and months," Gabbard said in a letter to Trump that she posted on X. "At this time, I must step away from public service to be by his side and fully support him through this battle."
Gabbard, a former Democratic congresswoman, married her Hawaii-based cinematographer husband in a Hindu ceremony. They met while shooting campaign advertisements, and he proposed to her while surfing at sunset.    �"AFP
