TL;DR

President Trump said he will nominate Jay Clayton, former Manhattan U.S. attorney and ex-SEC chair, to be the next director of national intelligence, following uproar over Bill Pulte’s acting tenure; Clayton has no formal intelligence experience and would undergo FBI background checks and a Senate hearing, with Democrats pressing for Pulte’s removal and unclear timing for confirmation.
