💨 Abstract
The Senate intelligence committee holds a confirmation hearing for John Ratcliffe, Trump's nominee to be CIA director, amid allegations of using intelligence for political ends during his tenure as Trump's director of national intelligence. Ratcliffe, a former Republican lawmaker, is expected to face questions about interfering with intelligence work and politically motivated actions. The hearing will address concerns about his potential to provide unbiased intelligence and to maintain loyalty to the country over political figures.
