Chris Hayes: Trump’s ‘Attack Dog’ Bill Pulte, Someone with ‘Zero National Security Experience’ Is Being Nominated as Director of National Intelligence

‘Trump wants to put him in charge of the entirety of the American intelligence apparatus, all 11 agencies, all the spies, all the wiretaps, all the satellites, all the human into that guy’

EXCERPT:

HAYES: “I mean, just today, another just totally jaw-dropping, gobsmacking, 'leave you speechless' kind of news alert when it was announced that Donald Trump was announcing a flagrantly, almost impossibly unqualified candidate to replace Tulsi Gabbard as the Director of National Intelligence, the man you see there, is a guy named Bill Pulte, who’s spent the last year digging into the mortgage records of the president’s critics to hound them with malicious prosecutions. That guy, Trump’s attack dog, that guy who, by the way, has zero intelligence or national security experience whatsoever, Trump wants to put him in charge of the entirety of the American intelligence apparatus, all 11 agencies, all the spies, all the wiretaps, all the satellites, all the human into that guy. All of it. “
