美国国家情报代理主任威廉·普尔蒂于周日宣布,其所在办公室已完成第四批裁员。
“自出任国家情报代理主任以来,我们团队一直在明智且审慎地缩减美国国家情报总监办公室的规模,将其工作重心重新聚焦于国家安全、法律规定和法定职责,”他在X平台的帖子中写道。
“截至今晚,我们刚刚完成第四轮深思熟虑、审慎推进的裁员。谢谢大家!”他补充道。

普尔蒂曾在7月10日的帖子中指出:“美国国家情报工作的运行效率和效果比以往任何时候都更高,今天我们启动了第三轮削减冗余或非关键岗位人员的工作。国家情报总监办公室的未来格外光明,将严格遵循法律和法定职责开展工作。”
总统唐纳德·特朗普任命联邦住房金融局局长普尔蒂同时担任代理国家情报总监。
此前担任国家情报总监的图尔西·加巴德已于上月离职。她曾在5月宣布计划卸任,原因是其丈夫被诊断出骨癌。

据《华尔街日报》报道,在上月普尔蒂接手国家情报总监办公室之前,特朗普在一次采访中表示,他已告知普尔蒂,他认为国家情报总监办公室“没必要存在,或者规模过大”。
“我希望看到它规模缩小。我认为里面有很多人不应该留在那里,”总统说道,据《华尔街日报》报道,他直指奥巴马和拜登政府的遗留人员。当被问及是否要求普尔蒂启动解雇行动时,总统表示他希望普尔蒂“启动流程”,并指出最终的国家情报总监提名人选应继续推进这项工作。
特朗普随后宣布南纽约地区联邦检察官杰伊·克莱顿为国家情报总监职位的提名人选。

“非常感谢总统让我担任代理国家情报总监。他真的是最棒的,为他工作是一种荣幸。虽然只过去了几周,但我们已经取得了诸多成就——无论是行动层面,还是透明度方面。谢谢总统,”普尔蒂在周日的个人X平台帖子中写道。

Acting Director of National Intelligence William Pulte announced Sunday that his office has completed a fourth batch of layoffs.
“Since becoming Acting Director of National Intelligence, our team has been smartly, and carefully, reducing the size of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, re-focusing ODNI on national security, the law, and the statute,” he wrote in a post on X.
“As of this evening, we just finished a 4th round of thoughtful, measured layoffs. Thank you!” he noted.
TRUMP GREEN LIGHTS NEW DNI PULTE TO ‘START THE PROCESS’ ON MASS INTELLIGENCE FIRINGS

Pulte had previously noted in a July 10 post, “U.S. National Intelligence is operating more efficiently and effectively than ever before, and today, we started a third round of reducing redundant, or non-critical, personnel. DNI’s future is exceptionally bright, and will be focused on following the law and the statute.”
President Donald Trump chose Pulte, the director of the Federal Housing Finance Agency, to serve as acting DNI as well.
Tulsi Gabbard, who had been serving as DNI, departed the role last month. She had previously announced in May that she planned to exit the role due to her husband’s bone cancer diagnosis.

Prior to when Pulte took the reins at ODNI last month, The Wall Street Journal reported that during an interview, Trump said he had informed Pulte that he thought ODNI was “unnecessary and/or too big.”
“I’d like to see it smaller. I think there are a lot of people in there that shouldn’t be there,” the president said, pointing to Obama and Biden administration carryovers, according to the Journal. Asked if he was calling for Pulte to engage in firings, the president indicated he wanted Pulte to “start the process,” noting that the eventual DNI nominee should carry on with the effort, the outlet reported.
Trump later announced U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York Jay Clayton as his nominee for the DNI role.

“So deeply grateful to POTUS for letting me be acting Director of National Intelligence. He is, truly, the best, and it is a blessing to work for him. While it’s been only a few weeks, so much has already been accomplished —Operationally, AND, Transparency. Thank you, POTUS,” Pulte wrote in a Sunday post on his personal X account.
