President Trump said on Friday that he intends to nominate Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-TX) as his permanent director of national intelligence, CNN reports.
Steve Vladeck: “Even if there’s no real chance that Ratcliffe will be confirmed by the Senate, the formal submission of his nomination will allow Richard Grenell to continue to serve as Acting DNI past March 11 — and for another 210 days after Ratcliffe’s rejection or withdrawal.”
