Gabbard's Office Warns Attorney Against Sharing Classified Complaint with Congress
ODNI warned whistleblower attorney against briefing Congress on a top-secret complaint alleging Tulsi Gabbard delayed sharing classified intelligence for political reasons.
- On Monday, ODNI general counsel Jack Dever warned Andrew Bakaj not to share a top-secret complaint, citing legal risks and potential charges.
- The whistleblower filed the complaint in May, and the inspector general provided Gabbard with information in June, but copies reached the Gang of Eight only last week.
- Reporters say the matter began with an NSA intercept of a call between two foreign nationals mentioning someone close to President Donald Trump, while two inspectors general found the whistleblower's claim of political restriction not credible and lawmakers received a heavily redacted complaint last week.
- Gabbard's office was informed last week that Bakaj planned to brief lawmakers on Monday, with additional meetings tentatively scheduled for Wednesday, amid partisan reactions.
- Under U.S. law, the ICIG has 14 days to assess credibility, and the director then has one week to provide Congress, highlighting broader oversight disputes.
