Donald Trump said he would delay the Senate confirmation hearing for Jay Clayton, his nominee for director of national intelligence, to pressure Congress into passing a voter ID bill. Bill Pulte will remain as acting director of national intelligence after the delay. According to gdelt, Jay Clayton is a federal prosecutor nominated by Donald Trump for the position, and Bill Pulte is a top U.S. housing official. According to gdelt, Democratic and Republican lawmakers opposed Trump’s selection of Bill Pulte as acting director of national intelligence.
