“President Trump said on Wednesday that he was delaying his nomination of Jay Clayton as director of national intelligence as he again tried to pressure Congress to pass a strict voter identification law that does not have enough support to advance,” the New York Times reports.
“That would leave Bill Pulte, who has no known national security experience, as the acting director of national intelligence.”
Washington Post: Trump says intelligence chief pick’s hearing is off and Pulte will remain for now.
