The case for a strong, independent U.S. intelligence chief has grown more compelling as politics increasingly shapes the nation's spy agencies. https://www.japantimes.co.jp/commentary/2026/07/20/world/us-messes-with-spy-agency/?utm_medium=Social&utm_source=mastodon #commentary #worldnews #us #intelligence #spying #odni #donaldtrump #dni #tulsigabbard #fbi #billpulte #maga #cia

#Trump called for bolstering protections he himself dismantled.
Trump has spent the first part of his 2nd term dismantling #election protections built up over previous years. The #FBI task force on foreign influence was shut down, the #ODNI sharply cut back a task force that warned against foreign meddling & #CISA has been gutted.
And Trump has appointed an heir to a housing fortune with no relevant experience as interim DNI.

Mac Warner, an ally of #EdMartin & a former #Republican official from West Virginia, was assigned to investigate #election “fraud”. One email shows Warner spending several hours at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence [ #ODNI ] — an early signal of the expanded role the White House envisioned for the agency.

The removals represent the first major move in #BillPulte’s mandate to make drastic reductions at the #spy office, which had already been slimmed down under Gabbard. The #ODNI, which acts as a policymaker & coordinator for the 18 agencies that make up the #US #intelligence community, has been a target of some on the #MAGA right who believe it is made up of a “deep state” determined to undermine #Trump.

“The #DeepState #firings have begun,” the [dumb-ass 🤬] source said, declining to give details on how many #jobs had been cut.
Sources had previously told CNN that #BillPulte, the #Trump personal pick to serve as #DNI in [a conveniently] “acting” capacity, was looking at cutting hundreds of jobs at the #ODNI. Last week, #BillPulte showed up to his new job a day early after asking for a list of EVERY employee in the office catching even creepy outgoing director #TulsiGabbard off-guard.

SEVERAL court cases filed by Trump's lawyers failed to prove voter fraud in the 2020 presidential race.
#DNI #TulsiGabbard, who launched an investigation into the #VotingMachines & searched for evidence to support Trump's false election fraud claims, steps down on Friday. Stepping in as interim director is federal housing regulator #BillPulte. #Trump has said he wants Pulte to investigate “rigged elections” during his time at #ODNI.

The report, produced by the #ODNI [oh boy, that’s now #BillPulte], concludes that #VotingMachines could be further safeguarded by, for example, updating their software, the sources said. It does NOT say the vulnerabilities have led to votes flipping, but examines security gaps in how the machines are used during #US #elections.

#Trump Picks #JayClayton to Be #Intelligence [#DNI] Chief
Lawmakers had pressed for someone besides #BillPulte, the Trump lickspittle who was the interim choice but lacked any experience & integrity.
Clayton is the #USattorney in Manhattan & the former chairman of the #SEC.

“Interim ODNI chief Bill Pulte has been slammed by Democrats as a Donald Trump loyalist with no intelligence background.”
You can strike the last word, “background”, & be more correct in your assessment.

Early last summer, McNamara asked officials in the #Commerce Dept to consider the potential designation of #Dominion chips & software as a national security risk, the 2 sources said.
At the time, McNamara headed an #ODNI task force that worked with officials across the admin to investigate vulnerabilities in the nation’s #VotingMachines. The 2 sources said McNamara spoke about the issue to senior officials at the Commerce Dept, which is run by Secy Howard Lutnick.

The #CIA referred questions to the #ODNI [#TulsiGabbard], which declined to comment. The White House did not say if #Trump was briefed on this assessment before approving the #military operation, which has quickly expanded east to include submarine warfare in the #IndianOcean & west to counter-missile showdowns near #NATO member #Turkey. -

After a tipoff from a media organization, the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) drafted a memo describing allegations that a federal security officer was responsible for the failed Jan. 6 pipe bombings. A copy was circulated at the officer's workplace and among Trump administration officials, and conservative site Blaze News published an article naming her. The woman in question has now been ruled out as a suspect after she provided an alibi: A video of her playing with her puppies at the time the devices were placed. @CBSNews looks into the ODNI's part in it all.

The letter came a day after Reuters disclosed that a review of government records showed that the interagency group drew dozens of officials from the #CIA, the #ODNI, the #DOJ, the #FBI & other departments.
The existence of the interagency group indicates the #Trump admin’s push to deploy government power against Trump’s perceived foes is broader & more systematic than previously reported.
