‘I’m not an election denier’: Inside hearings for Trump’s DNI pick


The Senate Intelligence Committee has wrapped up its questioning of President Donald Trump’s nominee to lead the US intelligence community, US Attorney for the Southern District of New York Jay Clayton, after a single round of tense questions about the winner of the 2020 election and a set of controversial subpoenas Clayton signed for New York Times journalists.

In multiple instances, Clayton responded to direct questions from Democrats about whether Joe Biden had won the 2020 election by responding that Biden was “certified” as the president — neatly sidestepping the question of whether he “won,” an emotional third rail for Trump.
