Bill Pulte appears to be unburdened by intelligence or any semblance of ethics. His appointment at ODNI is one more reason every single Democrat should vote against rubber stamping the Trump administration's FISA Section 702 spying powers.
Trump says he is appointing his ally and loyalist Bill Pulte as Acting DNI. Pulte has no national intelligence experience, but he has used his current role as head of the Federal Housing Finance Agency to pursue phony mortgage fraud allegations against Trump’s political opponents.
Incredible quote from Wyden, that it is time to "start treating the adtech industry as a national security threat."
Scoop: Central Command is getting reports that military personnel are being targeted using commercially available location data. Few details available, but it’s a sign that the tech industry’s advertising-surveillance complex is having consequences on the battlefield. www.reuters.com/business/med...
🔥BRAVO to Senator Ron Wyden & 19 Senate Democrats introducing a resolution to invoke the Congressional Review Act & END an experiment from Trump Admin (OZ😡) ALLOWING AI to conduct PRIOR AUTHORIZATION & PROFIT from DENYING medical claims in Traditional Medicare. www.finance.senate.gov/ranking-memb...
My team uncovered that foreign enemies are targeting U.S. servicemembers in war zones by buying their location data. The threat to national security posed by data brokers has never been more clear. We need to dismantle the surveillance advertising industry.

SWIFT OPPOSITION: There are now House *and* Senate bills to impose 100% tax on payouts from Trump’s $1.8 billion fund for convicted crooks Sen. Chuck Schumer (D-NY) & Ron Wyden (D-OR) have just introduced their version Rep. Mike Thompson (D-CA) already has bill in House
They're stealing billions of your money to pay off violent right-wing psychos while doing everything in their power to spike gas up to $5 a gallon, make groceries into a luxury and hand the country over to the oligarchs who want to permanently replace you.
A bipartisan coalition of lawmakers has introduced legislation that would make it harder for federal investigators to obtain phone records and also would prevent the government from weaponizing a secretive legal instrument it has used to target critics.
We reported that he was thinking about it, and yep, he went for it. "What is Trump hiding from the American people?” says @warren.senate.gov. “Democrats are going to fight every element of this self-dealing settlement,” vows Sen. Ron Wyden @wyden.senate.gov. Wow, even some Republicans seem uneasy.
Sen. Wyden keeps getting under the skin of the NSA’s biggest supporters with his warnings about intelligence agency abuses— and the latest dispute resulted in a high-profile dustup on the Senate floor.
Also in this piece: Senator Ron Wyden tells me Dems will pursue testimony from the Treasury official who resigned after Trump's $1.8 billion slush fund was announced:
In MAGA mythology, the Jan 6ers are victims, just as all Trump voters are victims. This slush fund is supposed to represent vengeance. But the middle of the country rejects this mythmaking entirely. Rs should be forced to defend it. (h/t @adamserwer.bsky.social) newrepublic.com/article/2106...
