Senator Tom Cotton is leading an effort to gut the Office of the Director of National Intelligence through his bill S.2202, the so-called “Intelligence Community Efficiency and Effectiveness Act of 2025.”
Don’t be fooled by the name. This bill would strip critical oversight powers from the ODNI and hand them back to agencies like the FBI and NSA, which have repeatedly proven they cannot police themselves.
This is not about efficiency. It’s a power grab designed to derail Director Tulsi Gabbard’s work to uncover what really happened during the Barack Obama years, when false intelligence narratives like Russia-gate were weaponized against President Donald J. Trump.
Cotton’s bill is a direct attack on the one office capable of bringing transparency and accountability to a deeply corrupt intelligence establishment.
At the exact moment Director Gabbard begins investigating key Obama-era officials like Clapper, John Brennan, and Rice, Cotton moves to kneecap her. This is no coincidence. His bill even rewrites job titles and chains of command to subtly but effectively insulate entrenched bureaucracies from oversight.
Cotton tries to sell this as a MAGA-friendly reform by tossing in a redundant DEI ban that Gabbard already implemented on day one. It’s political theater meant to bait conservatives while handing the deep state more control.
S.2202 must be stopped.
I break it all down in my latest piece. Please read it, share it, and if this outrages you like it does me, please speak up.
On August 3, 2016, then-CIA Director John Brennan personally briefed President Barack Obama on the Steele Dossier, a document filled with unverified political smears paid for by the Hillary Clinton campaign.
This wasn't "intelligence." It was political warfare disguised as national security.
From that moment, the highest levels of our government were weaponized to subvert a presidential candidate and later, a duly elected president.
This was not just opposition politics. It was a coordinated operation involving John Brennan, Comey, Clapper, and others to manipulate the media, mislead Congress, and deceive the American people.
IT'S TIME FOR ACCOUNTABILITY!
ATTENTION!
Subject: John Brennan, The LinchPin of Russia-Gate
John Brennan was Barack Obama‘s chief enforcer, the architect of a coordinated operation to weaponize our government from within.
This wasn’t a mistake. It was a deliberate, well-planned assault on the Constitutional order of the United States of America.
Given the mounting evidence, backed up now by even more whistleblowers coming forward and explosive and revealing declassified documents, there should be no more delays or excuses.
The American people deserve real ACCOUNTABILITY.
Please watch and share.
It's astonishing how many Americans, even some well-meaning patriots, still believe I was convicted of a crime, sent to prison, or was only recently pardoned. Shockingly, millions still think I am guilty.
That's simply not true.
I was never convicted & never spent a single day in prison. In May 2020, the Department of Justice dismissed my case after uncovering their own misconduct.
It's frightening to think the POTUS had to use his pardon power to pardon an innocent man who had never been convicted of a crime.
The truth? A corrupt judge refusal to dismiss my case despite the DOJ dismissing the case. The fake lying corrupt media spent years pushing a false narrative, & many Americans still don't know the real story.
I wrote Pardon of Innocence to set the record straight, expose how deeply our institutions have been weaponized, & sound the alarm about where our country is headed if we don't act. We must ask ourselves: what kind of country are we living in when we politicize our justice system?
...
For over 33 years, I proudly served in the U.S. Army, defending our nation from threats both abroad and at home. However, nothing could have prepared me for the battle I would face in Washington, D.C.
The Deep State launched a full-scale assault against my family and me, but my commitment to our country never wavered despite their lies, betrayal, and fierce attacks on my freedom.
My memoir, “PARDON OF INNOCENCE”, will be released on June 24th. This inspiring book reveals the raw, unfiltered truth the deep state tried to silence.
Pre-order now and stand with me in preserving our nation's truth! Thank you.

Let me tell you something straight up—President Trump’s tariffs are a bold, decisive strike for America’s soul. This isn’t just about trade; it’s about taking back what’s ours—our jobs, industries, and our pride. For too long, we’ve let the globalists and the weak-kneed elites sell us out to foreign powers who don’t give a damn about the American worker.
I’ve just reviewed a bombshell report from the Department of Homeland Security’s Office of Inspector General, dated March 25, 2025, and it’s a gut punch to every American who believes in sovereignty, security, and the rule of law. The title alone says it all: ICE Cannot Effectively Monitor the Location and Status of All Unaccompanied Alien Children After Federal Custody. Let that sink in. Hundreds of thousands of kids—448,000 from 2019 to 2023—crossed our border illegally, were handed off to sponsors, and now ICE, the agency tasked with enforcing our immigration laws, has no clue where many of them are. This isn’t just incompetence; it’s a betrayal of the American people.
I’ve spent my life defending this nation, and I’m here to give it to you straight: the 2025 Annual Threat Assessment from our Intelligence Community (IC) is a wake-up call. Released this month by the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, it lays bare the dangers we face—both from beyond our borders and within. This isn’t just a report for policymakers; it’s a battle plan for every patriot who cares about our future. Here’s what you need to know.
