Trump doubled down on his reckless decision to appoint Bill Pulte as acting @ODNIgov Director.
At a time when the US is at war and prepping for massive security events like the World Cup & America250, we need a DNI with extensive experience in national security.
Pulte has none.

Analysis Summary
Trump appointed Bill Pulte, a housing official with little demonstrated experience in national intelligence, as acting director of national intelligence. Federal law requires the DNI to have extensive national security experience, and Pulte has filed criminal referrals against Trump's political opponents including Federal Reserve Governor Lisa Cook and New York Attorney General Letitia James on fraud allegations, raising concerns about politicization of intelligence. Even GOP Senator Mitch McConnell warned that the position requires extensive national security experience, signaling he would not support permanent confirmation.
