If confirmed, he would replace Richard Grenell, whom President Trump put in charge of American intelligence agencies this month on an acting basis.
I am pleased to announce the nomination of @RepRatcliffe (Congressman John Ratcliffe) to be Director of National Intelligence (DNI). Would have completed process earlier, but John wanted to wait until after IG Report was finished. John is an outstanding man of great talent!
