Senate panel approves Trump nominee for spy chief

The Senate Intelligence Committee voted on Tuesday to approve President Trump's spy chief nominee, Rep. John Ratcliffe (R-Texas).

Three members of the panel confirmed coming out of the closed-door vote that the panel had advanced Ratcliffe's nomination to the full Senate for a confirmation vote. If confirmed, the Texas Republican will be the next director of National Intelligence (DNI).

"It was a straight party-line vote," said Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), the vice chairman of the committee.

The party-line vote is a shift from the panel's 14-2 approval for former DNI Dan Coats, who stepped down last year.
