US concerned about Bangladesh minorities, will defeat 'Islamist terror' globally: Tulsi Gabbard
Tuesday, 18 March 2025 US intelligence chief Tulsi Gabbard expressed concerns about persecution of minorities in Bangladesh and the global threat of Islamist terrorism. In a meeting with India's Defence Minister Rajnath Singh, she discussed the strategic security partnership and Singh urged the US to designate Sikhs For Justice as a terrorist organization.
Tulsi Gabbard's recent remarks about violence against minorities in Bangladesh have sparked controversy. While Bangladesh’s interim government strongly rejected her claims, Gabbard also spoke about strengthening India-U.S. ties, defending Trump’s 'America First' policy. Here's a quick breakdown...
The Trump administration is preparing to downsize the CIA, NSA, and other intelligence agencies, cutting over 1,200 jobs. The Washington Post reports hundreds at the CIA have already taken early retirement, with further cuts to come via hiring freezes. CIA Director John Ratcliffe says the goal is to realign the agency with Trump’s national security vision. The administration has also scrapped DEI programs, fired top generals, and is shifting intelligence focus toward China and human sources. Some laid-off employees are challenging terminations in court. Tulsi Gabbard’s office has not responded to the reports.

Tripoli was plunged into violent unrest after reports surfaced of the assassination of Abdelghani al-Kikli, the influential head of the UN-backed Stability Support Apparatus (SSA).
