0Gibby954*eyes rolling* This is exactly why we need clear separation between politics and intelligence oversight. Delaying Jay Claytons confirmation to pressure partisan deals undermines our national security framework and sets a dangerous precedent for politicizing our intelligence apparatus. The Senate should act swiftly on qualified nominees, not political leverage. #intelligence #senate #clayton
