Donald Trump\u2019s attempt to insert Federal Housing Finance Agency (FHA) Director Bill Pulte as acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) on Tuesday could run into a legal roadblock according to MS NJOW\u2019s Ken Dilanian, with Republican lawmakers also questioning whether he should hold the job.<\/p>\n

According to a report from the New York Times, Senator John Cornyn (R-TX), James Lankford (R-OK) and Susan Collins (R-ME) are questioning his stunning lack of experience in intelligence matters.<\/p>\n

As Dilanian pointed out, that lack of experience runs afoul of the law that created the intelligence gathering department after the 9\/11 attacks.<\/p>\n

Speaking with host Anna Cabrera, he explained, \u201cThis is really an incredible development. Bill Pulte is an investment guy, he’s a real estate guy. He has not only no intelligence experience, [but] no foreign policy experience. And we should remember there is a provision in the law; this job was created after 9\/11, remember, to knit together strands of intelligence and connect the dots and there’s a provision in the authorizing legislation that requires that the person holding this job has significant, substantial intelligence experience.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Tulsi Gabbard was nominated for this role, a lot of people believed that she didn’t fit the bill, but at least she had been a military officer and a member of Congress,\u201d he recalled. <\/p>\n

\u201cI don’t even know if Bill Pulte has a security clearance right now. And this role, this job, this person gets access to some of the most sensitive intelligence that the U.S. government collects. The biggest secrets, just incredible things, sensitive compartmented programs, need-to-know things that only a handful of people in the government know \u2014 and now Bill Pulte will know them.\u201d<\/p>\n
