President Donald Trump asked Congress on June 10 to pass a short-term extension of a federal surveillance program set to expire this week, as Senate Democrats had blocked a longer renewal over his choice of Bill Pulte to serve as acting director of national intelligence.
“I am asking Congress to send me a short-term extension of FISA to provide time for the selection and confirmation of a permanent Head of the Agency,” Trump wrote on Truth Social Wednesday morning.
