Bill Pulte, a senior adviser to the White House, announced a new appointment to the intelligence community. He selected Christina Norton, a longtime GOP election operative, for the chief of staff

role at the ODNI. The Office of the Director of National Intelligence oversees the nation’s intelligence agencies. Norton’s background includes work on Republican election campaigns and

political strategy. Former officials familiar with the decision confirmed the appointment. The move signals an effort to bring political experience into the intelligence leadership. Critics may view

the placement as politicizing a traditionally nonpartisan office. The ODNI will integrate Norton into its senior staff while maintaining its operational duties.
