Top lawyer for intelligence community to leave post

https://www.cbsnews.com/news/jason-klitenic-office-director-national-intelligence-general-counsel-ukraine-whistleblower-resigns/?ftag=CNM-00-10aab7e&linkId=82603632

The top lawyer for the intelligence community, who played an integral role in the decision to keep from Congress the whistleblower complaint that sparked the impeachment inquiry into President Trump is leaving his post, CBS News has learned.

Jason Klitenic, general counsel for the Office of the Director of National Intelligence, will step down from his position next month and return to the private sector, the office, which oversees the 17 intelligence agencies, said. Klitenic has served as the top lawyer for the intelligence community since August 2018 after he was unanimously confirmed by the Senate.

Klitenic’s departure comes alongside the looming March 11 deadline for Acting Director of National Intelligence Joseph Maguire to either be nominated for the position formally by Mr. Trump or replaced.
