[ [link removed] ]Tell the Senate: Reject John Ratcliffe! Add my name

PFAW Member,

After a failed nomination just last fall, President Trump has decided to
RENOMINATE one of his favorite political lackey's: Rep. John Ratcliffe, to
be Director of National Intelligence – a role he is completely unqualified
to fill.

After recent high-profile clashes with the U.S. intelligence community,
Trump has decided he would prefer someone as DNI who is loyal to him above
all else and he decided he'd select the same person who faced bipartisan
rejection just months ago after being nominated for the same job.

John Ratcliffe as the country's next intel chief>> 

An ardent supporter of Trump, Ratcliffe doesn't miss an opportunity to
come to his defense, including doing everything he could to de-legitimize
the impeachment proceedings when the House was conducting their
investigations.

Even some Republicans question Ratcliffe's credentials for the job,
including the fact that he has been known to over-exaggerate his national
defense and security expertise! Many fear Ratcliffe would continue to
politicize the intelligence community, which is of particular concern
when, as now, our nation is especially vulnerable to ongoing election
interference from foreign adversaries – a threat Trump continues to
downplay.

In fact, Trump is so desperate to deflect attention to Russia that he
became irate with former acting DNI, Joseph Maguire, when he learned that
Maguire gave a briefing to members of Congress regarding the ongoing
interference campaign that Russia is waging in the 2020 election. Trump
became so angry about the briefing that he FIRED Maguire over the briefing
– alleging that he had given the Democrats “political ammo” to defeat him
in November.

When the security of our nation (including its elections) are at-risk from
foreign adversaries, we should resoundly reject anyone who would be a
political loyalist rather than someone who is loyal first and foremost to
the country.

Thank you,
