moron for DCI

There is a Congress Critter who had called various of the 17 Intelligence Agencies liars and traitors,. He has severely criticized the agencies and their heads.

Now, tRump wants to make him the DNI - Director National Intelligence.

This would be a real farce! Consider how the Flag Officers and Senior Intelligence Officers must feel thinking the outsider who openly and ignorantly bad mouthed them. Would anyone willingly help this wasp in the bee hive knowing that anything given out to him would probably be used against them?

Then, consider this man's point of view. He could be facing a unified culture opposed to him. He would appear to be getting cooperation but would always have to wonder just what private conversations are going on in closed meetings and over highly secured phone lines.

There won't be incriminating conversations on secure blogs, tweets or email. It would be safer to send notes via the Post Office. (Doesn't it take a search warrant to obtain and read mail/) Letters can be shredded in cross hatch shredder, which are everywhere in intelligence offices.

Bottom line: this person, if the Senate Committee interrogating him gives him their blessing, does not mean he will be accepted by the Senate as a whole.  He is simply too disruptive.
