President Trump has named Bill Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHFA), to replace Tulsi Gabbard as acting director of national intelligence.
Last month Gabbard announced she was stepping down from her job on June 30 to care for her husband, who is fighting bone cancer. Although Pulte has no experience in dealing with national intelligence issues, Trump used a Truth Social post to insist he is the right man for the job.
“William has deep experience managing the most sensitive matters in America, the safety and soundness of the Markets, and over 10 Trillion Dollars at Fannie Mae/Freddie Mac, a substantial increase from where it was just 12 months ago,” Trump posted.
The president added that Pulte will continue to work as FHFA director and as chairman of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Trump previously announced that Principal Deputy Director of National Intelligence Aaron Lukas would take on Gabbard’s position in an acting status, and it is unclear how or why Pulte was assigned.
Another unqualified person in a position of authority. At this point it’s like watching Idiocracy.
Well, it shows consistency…
Bill Pulte is a smarmy little tosser. As such, he fits in well with the Trump ‘administration ‘. Down with every one of them!
He is totally unqualified for the job. No military or intelligence experience. He does know how to answer,”how high” when the asks says jump.
Pulte is a good man and loyal to President Trump. DNI was leaking, and Bill will stop the leaks.
Unqualified ignorant, arrogant human being. Who I believe inherited his Fathers successful business and so he naturally fits in well with the trump crowd of clowns. The country is doomed!!!!!
What could possibly go wrong????
Total loser picks a total loser. Grrrrrrr
