Quote by David Hunt

The Homeland Security department doesn't have tasking authority in the intelligence community. They can ask for stuff, but they can't direct anything except inside their bureau.

The Homeland Security department doesn't have tasking author

Summary

This quote suggests that while the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) has limited power and influence over the intelligence community, it lacks authority to allocate tasks or give directions to other agencies within the community. The DHS can request information or resources from the intelligence community but can only exercise control and make decisions within its own bureau or department. This highlights the hierarchical structure and division of power within the intelligence community, where different agencies operate independently under their respective jurisdictions and authorities.
