President Donald Trump has faced a rare wave of bi-partisan scrutiny over his pick to replace outgoing Director of National Intelligence (DNI) Tulsi Gabbard, and on Wednesday, a raunchy video resurfaced that may pose even more problems for the Trump nominee.
Recorded in 2023 in Florida at a mock-stock event, Bill Pulte – the current Federal Housing Finance Agency director and Trump’s pick to become DNI – is seen on video receiving a trophy with the inscription “Bill Pulte f----.”
“I like only the young,” Pulte blurted after being read the trophy’s inscription, which on the backside read “only the young,” presumably to complete the sentence “Bill Pulte f---- only the young.”
Pulte then exclaimed that the trophy “looks pretty bad—” as it was handed to him, only to drop it after getting “too excited,” he could be heard saying.
The video was most recently unearthed by investigative journalist Paris Martineau, who on Tuesday flagged the clip in a social media post on Bluesky. It was also picked up by Zeteo on Wednesday in its report.
“The current director of national intelligence is a guy who two years ago received a trophy declaring he “F---- Only The Young” at an (oddly [sex toy]-focused) event he organized dedicated to the conspiracy that Bed Bath and Beyond never actually went bankrupt,” Martineau wrote.
And here’s Bill Pulte at a “stock festival” for BBBY just 2 years ago, when he was trying to trick them into buying shares of his grandfathers company so they could have voting rights at the shareholder meetings and install him back onto the board.
