唐纳德·特朗普总统提名的美国情报机构负责人人选将于周三在参议院获得第二次听证机会,而就在几周前,总统还破坏了最初的确认听证会程序。

目前在纽约南区任职的美国检察官杰伊·克莱顿是由特朗普提名担任国家情报总监办公室(ODNI)常任人选的,此前前任国家情报总监图尔西·加巴德于上月辞职。

他将于周三上午9:30在参议院情报委员会接受提名听证。

“杰伊·克莱顿是一位爱国者,也是一位资质极高的提名人选,”参议院情报委员会主席、来自阿肯色州的共和党议员汤姆·科顿在X平台上说道。

他继续说道:“在为纽约州民众服务的过程中,克莱顿先生在打击各类国家安全威胁方面拥有丰富经验。我期待他明天在参议院情报委员会的听证会上的表现。”

不过,曾在特朗普第一任期内担任美国证券交易委员会主席的克莱顿,上月卷入了一场与他毫无关联的参议院政治风暴。

如果他能通过这一程序——仍有几位民主党参议员曾投票确认他担任SEC主席——议员们希望这将再次为重启一项关键的反恐工具铺平道路。

民主党人对特朗普提名联邦住房金融局局长比尔·普尔担任代理国家情报总监感到愤怒,认为他资质不足,可能会按照特朗普的指示将美国18个情报机构武器化。

“为什么普尔先生会得到提拔?除了这纯粹是对情报界的侮辱之外,他怎么能同时胜任抵押贷款银行业务和情报工作呢?这太荒谬了,”来自弗吉尼亚州的民主党议员马克·华纳当时说道。

作为回应,民主党人拒绝支持美国顶级反恐工具《外国情报监控法》第702条的重新授权,导致该计划逐渐陷入停滞。

克莱顿的提名被民主党人视为本届政府伸出的橄榄枝,旨在确保普尔永远不会正式担任国家情报总监一职,并重启《外国情报监控法》重新授权的审议工作。

但随后特朗普彻底打乱了这一进程,在其极具火药味的真相社交平台帖子中要求暂停听证会。

他辩称民主党人在《外国情报监控法》问题上“打破了协议”,并且在他在纽约南区的继任者詹姆斯·麦克唐纳获得确认之前,提名程序不会推进。并且“增添一点戏剧性”,特朗普要求共和党人将《拯救美国法案》与《外国情报监控法》捆绑在一起,实际上让民主党无法接受该立法。

“其实并不复杂,只是共和党人掉进了陷阱,”特朗普当时说道。

President Donald Trump’s pick to lead the nation’s intelligence agencies will get a second shot in the Senate on Wednesday, weeks after the president sabotaged the initial confirmation hearing.

U.S. Attorney Jay Clayton, who currently serves in the Southern District of New York, was tapped by Trump to be the permanent nominee as the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) after former DNI Tulsi Gabbard stepped down from the role last month.

He’ll get his shot before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Wednesday at 9:30 a.m.

TRUMP’S DNI PICK WILL HAVE TO WAIT FOR HIS CONFIRMATION HEARING AFTER TRUTH SOCIAL BOMB

“Jay Clayton is a patriot and highly qualified nominee,” Senate Intelligence Committee Chair Tom Cotton, R-Ark., said on X.

“In his service to the people of New York, Mr. Clayton has deep experience combatting a wide range of national security threats,” he continued. “I look forward to his hearing before the Senate Intelligence Committee tomorrow.”

But Clayton, who previously served as chair of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) during Trump’s first term, was caught in a political firestorm roiling through the Senate last month that he had no part of.

And if he survives the process — several Democrats still serving in the Senate voted to confirm him as SEC chair — lawmakers are hopeful that it will again set up a path to turn a key counter-terrorism tool back on.

Democrats were enraged at Trump for tapping Federal Housing Finance Agency Director Bill Pulte to be the acting DNI, arguing that he was unqualified and could weaponize the nation’s 18 intelligence agencies at Trump’s bidding.

“Why is Mr. Pulte being promoted? Beyond the fact that just the kind of outright insult to the intelligence community, that he can suddenly do the mortgage banking job and the intelligence job at the same time, it’s absurd,” Sen. Mark Warner, D-Va., said at the time.

In return, they refused to support reauthorization of the nation’s top counter-terrorism tool, Section 702 of the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Act (FISA), causing the program to gradually go dark.

Clayton’s nomination was seen by Democrats as an olive branch from the administration designed to ensure that Pulte would never get into the DNI role, and that consideration of a FISA reauthorization could restart.

But then Trump blew up the process, demanding that the hearing be halted in a fiery Truth Social post.

He argued that Democrats “broke the deal” with FISA, and that until Clayton’s replacement in the Southern District, James McDonald, was confirmed, the nomination would not go forward. And to “add a slight bit of intrigue,” Trump demanded that Republicans tie the SAVE America Act to FISA, effectively killing the legislation for Democrats.

“Not complicated, actually, the Republicans fell into a trap,” Trump said at the time.
