What if Bill Pulte is not an accident? [View all]

Who would want us to have a DNI who couldn't do the job?

Sure - he is a sycophant. Sure - he enacts the retributive schemes that please the grifter. BUT!

The grifter has a habit of appointing the unqualified to important positions. He often doles out appointments that amount to the fox watching the henhouse. But what if this appointment has a purpose beyond his usually obedience and buffoonery. Who gave the suggestion or direction to the useful idiot I call the grifter?

If the office of DNI is essentially removed from the equation, by virtue of Pulte being handed the position - what then? What happens when all manner of important intelligence is ignored by those who are incapable of or disinterested in analyzing it? There will no longer be "national intelligence".

Who benefits? This may be by design, and no accident.
