Slotkin: Trump's pick is unfit to be the Director of National Intelligence

Published | Video Starts at 01:23

As someone who literally helped start the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, I was one of the first 10 employees. After a giant intelligence failure in Iraq, he has no experience in national security. None. We're not even sure he [Bill Pulte] has a security clearance or has ever held classified information. And then, number two, we've seen what he does in the job he currently has. He's a housing official, and he has access to every American's housing and mortgage information. (01:23–01:29)

CLAIM

Asserts uncertainty about Bill Pulte's security clearance or experience with classified information.
