President Donald Trump has appointed Bill Pulte as the interim Director of National Intelligence, replacing Tulsi Gabbard. The announcement was made on Truth Social, highlighting Pulte's extensive experience in managing sensitive matters in the U.S. and overseeing over $10 trillion at Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Pulte will retain his current roles while stepping into this new position. Gabbard resigned last month after disclosing her husband's cancer diagnosis. If formally nominated, Pulte would need Senate confirmation for the permanent position. His background in national security remains unclear, although he has frequently traveled with Trump on Air Force One.
