In addition to the president, they also depict Vice President JD Vance, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff Dan Caine, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, Secretary of State and acting national security adviser Marco Rubio and White House chief of staff Susie Wiles.

However, the newspaper pointed out that one major figure who does not appear is Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard.

Gabbard's chief of staff dismisses report that Trump is angry at Gabbard

Eyebrows were raised in Washington last week after Trump told reporters he didn't "care" that Gabbard had told Congress Iran is not building a nuclear weapon.

What's more, an article published by Politico claimed that the president is angry with his director of national intelligence over the issue.

However, that suggestion was quickly denounced in a social media post from Alexa Henning, who serves as Gabbard's chief of staff.

Henning dismissed the story as being "total clickbait" and described Gabbard as being "a loyal supporter" of Trump who was "a critical part of the coalition he built in 2024."

"She’s an essential member of our [national security team], [and] we’re grateful for her tireless work to keep America safe from foreign threats," Gabbard's chief of staff.  asserted.

Vice president came to Gabbard's defense

Meanwhile, Fox News reported that Vice President Vance defended the director of national intelligence in a statement which he provided to the cable network this past Wednesday.

"DNI Gabbard is a veteran, a patriot, a loyal supporter of President Trump and a critical part of the coalition he built in 2024," Vance was quoted as saying.

"She is an essential member of our team, and we’re grateful for her tireless work to keep America safe from foreign threats," the vice president insisted.
