Pulte pick sparks a Senate GOP rebellion - Axios
Overview
President Trump's selection of Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence has provoked an open rebellion among Senate Republicans and put extension of key surveillance authorities, including Section 702, at risk. Republicans now face deep intra-party splits that may force reliance on Democratic votes to pass any reauthorization. The appointment underscores concerns that loyalty-based personnel choices are complicating intelligence oversight and imperiling other GOP priorities in Congress.
