A new director of national intelligence has been sworn in. Jay Clayton took the oath of office on Monday. His confirmation hearing was contentious, with some issues remaining unresolved.
The Senate confirmation hearing for Clayton's position was notable for his response to a question about the 2020 presidential election. He did not directly acknowledge the outcome of the election. Further details about Clayton's confirmation and his new role are available from the Waco Tribune-Herald.
