Acting Director of National Intelligence Bill Pulte said Saturday that the leadership transition at the office will begin Monday, reversing reports of earlier plans for him to remain in the role alongside his successor, Jay Clayton, for a transition period.
“After speaking with the President Trump and Jay Clayton, we have decided the DNI transition will take place this coming Monday,” Pulte wrote on X, adding, “I am eternally grateful to President Trump for the opportunity to serve as Director of National Intelligence, while he completed historic declassifications and we right sized the ODNI.”
