Sen. Thom Tillis slammed Bill Pulte as President Donald Trump's pick to lead the U.S. intelligence community: "Whoever told the president to go ahead and commit to this publicly before vetting it should lose their jobs."
Happy 40th Anniversary to the marriage of @cspan and the #USSenate-Under a painstakingly drafted Senate resolution that passed 67 to 21 TV cameras got the green light. The House began allowing television coverage of its proceedings in 1979. #BrianLamb https://t.co/811FSISPyw
"The 38-year-old scion of one of the country’s biggest home-building empires possesses zero experience whatsoever in intelligence or even national security. He makes Gabbard look well prepared by comparison. Pulte is wholly unqualified for the job."

Arkansas' 2 Chairmen take their #SpookStuff seriously, even if the Commander in Chief may not. A Director of National Intelligence #seatwarmer without a security clearance and with an addiction to tweeting - YIKES RT/RussiaToday: https://t.co/ft9TdI0yfZ

Did #Makary just have an ice pick plunged in his back by the Glas Inc. #eCig lobbyist (the new author + @BloombergTV talking head) over blueberry flavored vapes? Power Pivot indeed. https://t.co/GlNbK60ISq https://t.co/hPqvNnPfLq @natalieandrews@l_e_whyte https://t.co/6jWllBpZrB

GOP legislative veteran Catherine Treadwell is a real pro, in a kind of #OutOfTheFryingPanIntoTheFire way. The new @FBI Assistant Director for Congressional Affairs previously led the USHouse staff for Rep. Madison Cawthorn and Rep. Cory Mills B4 joining Director Patel's team.
How refreshing and reassuring to see a Trump Cabinet Member who can engage with reporters articulately, speaking with specifics, NA presser. This compares well to the VEEP or the #CommanderInChief who is after all, a generalities guy. @SecRubio2028 https://t.co/eGBEDby4qx
