I bet Trump will back off…Senate will tank FISA 702 if he's kept on.

---

What's the connection with Pulte and FISA 702?

---

It's largely that DNI runs it, and enough Senators loathe Pulte, that they'll prefer to tank FISA rather than see him stay in that role.

From Sen. Tillis' questioning of Sec. Bessent at Senate Finance:

"Did you actually tell [Bill] Pulte you were going to punch him in the face?"

"No sir, I actually said I was going to kick his ass."

"Good...I share the emotion."

That's what I can't figure out; besides Trump he is not well-liked in the Administration.

This sounds more snarky than I mean, but, you answered your own question.

Trump's opinion is the only one that matters…he prizes loyalty above all else…and Pulte has met that mark.

The one additional add here…is if DNI really mattered then I think you'd hear more coming from Pete and Rubio (you aren't).

Not being liked by anyone else only makes Trump like him more.

There are several posters on this very site if blind allegiance and bootlicking is the only qualification (which of course is true)

---

That's rich coming from a lib. Your party is full of NPCs who riot, kill and are brainwashed to believe what their overlords tell them to believe.

---

Me a lib? Hilarious. Great analysis Sherlock.

---

I am sorry. You're a "concerned moderate" who totally isn't a lib. You probably stump for other hardcore conservatives like Dade Phelan, Lisa Murkowski, etc.

Nope - not even close. But keep trying. I'm sure your Dear Leader appreciates your efforts.

Your posting history says otherwise. You have a severe case of TDS and only support RINOs like Massie. Oh, but you're a hardcore conservative!

You can look at my posting history and see I am a DeSantis guy. I am super happy Trump won, and while I don't agree with him on everything, he's fighting the swamp. We haven't ever had a fighter in my forty-six years on earth like Trump. Maybe Reagan was close, but he didn't have near the outright daily opposition. The only people who are fighting Trump, are liberals, because they don't want change.

There isn't such a thing as a polite or righteous conservative anymore. Either you're for this country or you are a damn liberal. The libs vote lockstep. You fight fire with fire and if you were a true conservative you would stop disagreeing with fighting true evil. As a DeSantis guy, I bought in. You didn't buy in because you're a liberal.

Tell me about your in depth research into my 30 year-ish posting history on this site. I'll wait.

You're just emotional because someone has the audacity to disagree with your point of view on some things and questions your boy (who, by the way, I voted for twice).

Liberals get emotional like that a lot. So I guess you have that going for you.

The rest of your diatribe is too nonsensical and, frankly, idiotic, to waste time on.

Have a good one (or at least try).

I don't have to look back thirty years to paint the picture.

The rest of your post is Marxist: Accuse your enemies of what you are doing.

Looks like a Christian was appointed. Morals are needed within the intelligence community.

Pulte is a clown

Like a scary one? Balloon animal making one? Rodeo? John Wayne Gacy?

I think, actually hope, what we are seeing is a continued tightening of the circle and having multiple cabinet and alike positions be consolidated.

Its easier this way and he does not need to rely on congress and specifically the senate confirmation process to get it done.

Something like "Tulsi is out now and I really do not need a DNI guy, I would give it to Marco but the memes are taking the spotlight from me. So let's go with Pulte and watch the libs 'reeee'".

TRUMP: PULTE WON'T BE PERMANENT INTELLIGENCE CHIEF
