John Ratcliffe was sworn in as the new CIA Director after the Senate confirmed him with a 74-25 vote. Ratcliffe, a Texas Republican and former federal prosecutor, previously served as the Director of National Intelligence under President Donald Trump. He is the first person to hold both positions. Ratcliffe emphasized the need for the CIA to enhance its use of technology, particularly artificial intelligence, to address threats from adversaries like Russia and China. Additionally, he stressed the importance of balancing improved intelligence capabilities with the protection of Americans' civil rights. His confirmation marks a significant step in Trump’s Cabinet reshuffle.
