Acting DNI is still working as an ambassador? He needs to get back to DC! I worry about his safety.

I suspect Grenell will be the acting FBI director after Ratcliffe is confirmed.

“Samantha Power, the former U.S. ambassador to the United Nations, was ‘unmasking’ at such a rapid pace in the final months of the Obama administration that she averaged more than one request for every working day in 2016”

“Gowdy: Do you recall any U.S. ambassadors asking that names be unmasked?

Brennan: I don’t know. Maybe it’s ringing a vague bell but I’m not — I could not answer with any confidence.”
