It appears Mr Pulte failed the hurdle as CNN is claiming Jay Clayton (R) is the nominee for Director of National Intelligence (DNI). He doesn’t seem qualified for the post, but I’ll leave it to those with the time and a working right hand to confirm that. I think it’s interesting that Pulte didn’t get the nod, showing that Trump can be influenced by resolute Republicans and Democrats, and wanted FISA more than Pulte.
But will it work? Clayton will be beholden to Trump, because that’s how a chronically guilty man works, but will Clayton be incompetent as well? Will he be worse than Pulte was projected to be?
