Acting DNI Pulte Targets 300 Employees for Firing

The new acting Director of National Intelligence has moved quickly to reshape the agency. Pulte informed staff at the Office of the Director of National Intelligence late Thursday. He requested a specific list of personnel targets during this initial communication. The request focuses on approximately 300 employees for potential termination. These firings are slated to occur over the coming weeks. The move marks a significant shift in leadership style immediately upon taking office. Staff members were briefed on the planned reductions shortly after his arrival. This action signals a major restructuring effort within the intelligence community.
