President Trump has named Joseph Maguire, a retired Navy officer, as his acting spy chief.
David Jackson, John Fritze and Michael CollinsWASHINGTON – President Donald Trump has named a retired Navy officer as his acting spy chief following a series shakeups and long-running tension between the president and his intelligence agencies.
"Admiral Maguire has a long and distinguished career in the military," Trump tweeted, noting that he retired from the Navy in 2010 as a vice admiral after a 36-year career."I have no doubt he will do a great job!"Trump had initially floated the name of Rep. John Ratcliffe to lead the office, but the Texas Republican withdrew his name after a series of stories raised questions about whether he had inflated his resume.
Some conservatives, meanwhile, called Gordon part of the intelligence establishment that has clashed with Trump.
