‘Inexperienced, loyalist clowns’: National Security expert slams possible Trump CIA picks

A top national security specialist with expertise on Russia and nuclear weapons is warning about two individuals reportedly being considered for the role of Director of the Central Intelligence Agency under President-elect Donald Trump.

Richard Grenell, the former Trump acting Director of National Intelligence (DNI) and U.S. Ambassador to Germany, has been "suggested for a role such as director of the Central Intelligence Agency, where he may be urged by Trump to unearth the so-called 'deep state,'" CNN reported Thursday.
