United States President Donald Trump said on Wednesday that the Republican Party is cancelling a Senate hearing on his nominee for director of national intelligence (DNI), Jay Clayton. Trump said that Clayton's confirmation process will not continue until Jamie McDonald is approved as US attorney for the Southern District of New York. McDonald would succeed Clayton, who is currently the district's US attorney.
Trump said that Republicans agreed to approve Clayton in exchange for the Democrats' support for the renewal of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), together with Trump's bill requiring proof of citizenship for voters. However, he claimed that Democratic lawmakers "broke the Deal" by refusing to renew FISA with the voting bill.
