It’s always a tell when one side says “This is what they agreed to,” and the other side says “We have not agreed to that.” Unless both sides agree on the agreement, there is no agreement.

I’ve known and respected Jay Clayton for decades. His intelligence, temperament and deep commitment to public service will make him a terrific DNI. Had this nomination been made a week ago, lots of pain might have been avoided.

Bipartisan vote in the House now shows: there is no path forward for FISA 702 reauthorization while Pulte is DNI. @POTUS must follow the law and appoint a DNI with real natsec experience, or put all Americans at risk with the expiration of our most critical intelligence tool.

Our War Powers Resolution directing the President to remove our armed forces from Iran just passed the House! I don’t expect the President to be swayed by this, but the representatives of the people have spoken on his unwise and illegal war.

A must read article on America’s new senior intelligence official in which our hero pushes meme stocks, invents a fantastical 50 year mortgage and encounters a large green dildo. We used to be a serious country.

Even by Trump Administration standards, Bill Pulte is totally unqualified to be DNI. He has no relevant experience and his sole qualification is unconditional devotion to Donald Trump. Since there will be no senate confirmation (of course), it is critical that Pulte go through a
