I am William Pulte, and as of this morning the President Trump appointed me acting Director of National Intelligence of the United States.
I am thirty-eight. I have never held a security clearance, never served in uniform, never sat through a briefing that wasn't about interest rates. The President says I have deep experience in the safety and soundness of ten trillion dollars. He is right. I have spent two years deciding which Americans are sound and which are not, and now I get to do it with satellites.
You know me from Twitter. I invented Twitter philanthropy. I picked strangers at random and sent them thirty thousand dollars over Cash App, winners announced in the thread, and three and a half million people followed me to watch it happen. Is that a fanbase? It is a voluntary intelligence database, self-enrolled, fully consented, sorted by who needed the cash most. The desperate identify themselves, like fish swimming up to the boat. I only read the replies.
Before this I ran housing finance. I want to be clear about my method, because people call it political and it is not. It is real estate.
I noticed Lisa Cook had listed two homes as primary residences. Mortgage fraud. I referred her. Then I turned to Letitia James. Adam Schiff. Eric Swalwell. Fani Willis. One after another, the way you'd pull comps on a block before you buy it. I am a homebuilder. My grandfather was also named William Pulte, and he laid the foundations, the literal ones, poured concrete, raised the largest homebuilder in America. I inherited the name and the trade. I know what a house is for, and it is not for shaving a point off your rate, and it is certainly not for sitting in judgment of the President after I have your closing documents open on my desk.
The President removed Cook in August. A judge blocked it in September. The Supreme Court let her keep the seat in October. One of my deputies went on television and promised she will be charged no matter how the Court rules. I did not correct him. I never interrupt a man who is describing the future.
They have a phrase for what I do. Safety and soundness. I applied it to Jerome Powell, who refuses to cut rates and refuses to quit, which renders him, by my own definition, unsound. So I post at him. From my personal account, the same handle where I gave away the thirty thousand dollars, which has lately become the handle where I issue agency directives, because nobody instructed me to stop and I have never once stopped of my own accord.
I still run the FHFA. I chair Fannie Mae. I chair Freddie Mac. Nobody asked me to surrender any of it, so I kept all three, the way a careful man keeps the gas masks. I am the only person in this city who can pull your mortgage, your followers, and the President's Daily Brief from a single chair, and wire you a Cash App payment before I stand up.
The transition team asked for my hundred-day plan. I sent them a screenshot of my following list.
Here is how it works now. The tip line is a giveaway. Report a neighbor, get entered to win, winners announced in the thread. Americans will watch each other for far less than thirty thousand dollars, I have run the numbers, and the ones who do it for nothing are the ones I keep.
Everyone begins sound. Soundness can be lost. This is no longer a watchlist, you understand, because a watchlist names suspects and mine names all of you, which is broader, which is more fair.
I do not declassify documents. I retweet them. The President's Daily Brief drops at nine eastern, peak engagement, and the version with the names goes only to close friends.
Foreign intelligence is the identical trade on a wider street. Ask me which countries claimed two capitals as a primary residence. I have already referred three.
The GAO opened an inquiry into me. Into whether I abused my authority, as though authority came with some gentler setting. I welcomed it warmly. A federal probe is just the government admitting you matter, and I read their letter the way I read all correspondence now, as a roster of names bolted to addresses. They are still awaiting my response. It will come. The GAO leases its office, and I have studied the lease.
Tulsi stepped aside at the end of May. They wanted somebody quickly, somebody confirmed for something, anything at all, and I had been confirmed for housing back when the Senate still confirmed people. So I serve in an acting capacity. It happens to be my specialty. I have spent my whole life qualifying for posts the morning after I already occupied them, and the paperwork has always wandered around to my side eventually, the way a jury softens once it remembers where it parks.
My confirmation hearing arrives in the fall. Am I nervous? I have already read the file of every senator who will sit in that room. I have read the file of every reporter who will describe it. Two of them took my money in 2021, and neither gave it back.
The eighteen agencies no longer need to speak to one another. They need to speak to me. You can reach the entire intelligence community by tagging me, and most of you already have.
Like and retweet for national security. Winners announced in the thread.
Hello Dr. Snyder,
You have a DPhil from Oxford. You were the Richard C. Levin Professor of History at Yale. You speak five languages and read ten. You have written sixteen books. You are, by your own positioning, the historian who has Seen This Before, who knows Where This Leads, who has Read The Right Books.
You wrote one of those books (126 pages) in approximately two weeks. On Tyranny: Twenty Lessons from the Twentieth Century. It started as a Facebook post. It has sold 1.4 million copies. It inspired a graphic novel, a punk song, a rap song, and an opera. It made you a very wealthy man. Lesson 20 is "Be as courageous as you can." You wrote that in two weeks.
Your predictive track record: Trump would do a coup instead of the 2020 election. He didn't. American democracy would collapse under Trump 1.0. It didn't. And now: Trump will start a war with Iran specifically to manufacture a terrorist attack specifically to cancel the midterms.
You can't even be original in your own predictions!
Your 2018 book The Road to Unfreedom argued that Vladimir Putin's ideology is primarily driven by Ivan Ilyin, an obscure Russian fascist philosopher. Serious Russia scholars called it speculative. The Reddit history community, which is not exactly right-wing, wrote: "The closer you get to the present, the more of a pundit he is over a historian per se." You are a pundit who charges historian prices.
In September 2022, you held a two-hour private meeting with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky... at a conference funded by Victor Pinchuk. Victor Pinchuk is the son-in-law of former Ukrainian President Leonid Kuchma. You are now the inaugural holder of the Temerty Chair at the University of Toronto... funded by James Temerty, a Ukrainian-born billionaire. You chair the academic council of the Ukrainian History Global Initiative... funded by Victor Pinchuk. Carl Bildt chairs the board. Anne Applebaum is on the council. You testified before Congress in April 2024 that Republican narratives on Ukraine constitute Russian disinformation.
A historian paid by Ukrainian oligarchs telling Congress that Ukraine skeptics are Russian assets. Definitely no conflict there.
In April 2024 you testified before the US House Oversight Committee, characterizing Republican members' questions about Ukraine as "Russian and Chinese propaganda themes." Historian? You're starting to sound much more like oppo research.
Summing it up.
A two-week pamphlet sold as historical scholarship. Predictions that didn't land, now recycled today. A private meeting with a head of state, a chair funded by that state's billionaires, congressional testimony on their behalf... and a scholarly independence claim maintained with a straight face.
And today: Trump is going to war with Iran so that Iran attacks us so that he can cancel the midterms. (Again.)
"Be calm when the unthinkable arrives." ~ Timothy Snyder, On Tyranny, Lesson 18, written in two weeks, 1.4 million copies sold.
You are calm, Dr. Snyder. Very calm. And also a huge grifter off your gullible audience who eats up your nonsensical prophecies.

from Gemini reason 10 year will go up:
In short, the rise in the 10-year yield is a combination of the government's massive debt supply overwhelming demand and the market's skepticism that inflation will quickly return to the Fed's target, forcing investors to demand more compensation.
It's time for Christians everywhere to start talking about Muslims murdering Christians in Nigeria.
Over 100,000 murders so far and the Nigerian government is aiding the Muslims.
