Clayton will take over as US intelligence chief on Monday, Pulte says
Acting DNI Bill Pulte announced Monday transition follows Trump talks, concluding his push to declassify election materials.
- Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte announced Saturday that the leadership transition to Jay Clayton will begin Monday, reversing earlier plans for a two-week overlap period.
- Pulte, who also serves as Federal Housing Finance Agency director, had personally urged President Donald Trump to extend his tenure, arguing he had not yet completed his intelligence agency work.
- During his interim tenure, Pulte accelerated staffing cuts and declassified documents supporting Trump's election fraud claims; the Senate confirmed Clayton this week despite Democratic opposition.
- Upon being sworn in next week, Clayton, formerly the U.S. attorney for the Southern District of New York, will assume control of 18 U.S. intelligence agencies.
- Clayton steps into a position vacated by Tulsi Gabbard in June, whose authority has reached a historic low point amid clashes with congressional Democrats over election claims.
