Rounds Introduces DNI Nominee Jay Clayton at Senate Intelligence Committee Hearing

Published | Video Starts at 00:53

The DNI has to be a trusted, unbiased voice to provide ongoing intelligence to the President. I believe Jay will do a great work in this role. Jay is an accomplished lawyer with decades of experience and he currently holds one of the most high profile and demanding posts in the Department of Justice as the U.S. Attorney for the Southern District of New York. He made the most of his time in New York by prosecuting some of America's worst enemies and threats to our national security. (00:53–01:05)
