Secretary of State Marco Rubio told a House committee Wednesday afternoon he had never heard of acting intelligence chief Bill Pulte in a security context. President Donald Trump appointed the 38-year-old housing regulator Tuesday to lead the 18-agency United States intelligence community. The appointment elevates a political loyalist without national security experience to lead the nation's intelligence services.
