President-elect Donald Trump's pick to lead the CIA signaled substantial changes are in store for America ’s premier spy agency.
John Ratcliffe promised the CIA would deliver insights and information free of personal and political bias.
Senate Intelligence Committee Republicans praised Ratcliffe 's experience and his plans to refocus the agency.
Democrats on the committee were skeptical, asking Ratcliffe for assurances that officers and analysts will not be subjected to political loyalty tests.
Former CIA chief of staff says Ratcliffe should get an easy confirmation.
But other former officials see Ratcliffe ’s performance during the hearing as a positive step.
Ratcliffe told lawmakers the list of threats and challenges facing the United States is long, topped by an ever more aggressive China that is “committed to dominating the world economically, militarily and technologically”.
