The U.S. Senate confirmed Jay Clayton, a lawyer and former Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) chair, as the new Director of National Intelligence (DNI) in a 51-47 party-line vote. Clayton replaces acting DNI Bill Pulte, who had been serving since former DNI Tulsi Gabbard's resignation. The confirmation comes after a contentious hearing where Clayton refused to acknowledge that President Biden won the 2020 election. Democrats had demanded an experienced replacement for Pulte but ultimately voted against Clayton.
