Politico: “The Senate last night confirmed Jay Clayton to be director of national intelligence, teeing him up to relieve Bill Pulte of his acting duty. But anyone expecting a swift exit from Pulte, whose selection for the interim role roiled Washington, may need to reset expectations.”“Pulte is pressing Trump ‘to delay Clayton’s swearing-in, or at least trying to stay in the job longer.’””Pulte is telling Trump he needs more time to finish his work… His recent burst of activity — ramping up social media posts, declassifying material and announcing additional sweeping layoffs — is part of an effort to get the president on board with that plan.”
