Threats to the Vote

from The Weekend Hosted by Jackie Alemany, Jonathan Capehart, Eugene Daniels, Rep. Greg Stanton, Jena Griswold, Hunter Woodall

June 20, 2026; 9am: Bill Pulte, who is a Trump loyalist and Director of Federal Housing, took over the position Friday. Pulte has no experience in the intelligence world, but he does have a history of doing the president's bidding by launching probes into Trump's perceived enemies. As acting DNI , he's in a position where he can further peddle the president's conspiracy theories on election fraud. Pulte's appointment is not popular, even among some Republicans who are against it. Colordado Secretary of State Jena Griswold joins the weekend to discuss Pulte's appointment.
