Trump to Johnson: No compromise on Pulte
President Donald Trump has refused to back down on his decision to appoint Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence, despite Democratic opposition that threatens to let a key surveillance program lapse. The dispute over Pulte’s appointment has resulted in a standoff over extending Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act, with no clear resolution in sight as the surveillance authority nears expiration. Trump intends for Pulte to serve temporarily while restructuring the intelligence community, rejecting calls to remove him to appease Democrats. The deadlock has raised concerns among lawmakers about the potential impact on national security.
