AllSides Media Bias Rating: Right
President Trump announced Friday afternoon Congressman John Ratcliffe's nomination to be the next Director of National Intelligence has been withdrawn.
Ratcliffe was nominated earlier this week when it was announced former DNI Director Dan Coates would be stepping down.
After Ratcliffe was nominated, the media jumped to falsely condemn him as soft on Russia due to this exchange with Special Counsel Robert Mueller.
