How Trump’s new acting intel chief Bill Pulte won him over - Politico
Overview
President Trump named Bill Pulte acting director of national intelligence, elevating a longtime loyalist who developed an unusually political profile while leading the mortgage regulator. Reporting indicates Pulte used his FHFA perch to pursue political wins and cultivated fierce loyalty to the president. That loyalty-based promotion has now sparked open GOP dissent in the Senate and could make the intelligence office more aligned with the White House during debates over Section 702 reauthorization.
