A group of six Congressmen have asked President Barack Obama to remove James Clapper as director of national intelligence. The group, led by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), said that Clapper s role as DNI is incompatible with the goal of restoring trust in our security programs In March, Clapper testified before the Senate Intelligence Committee that the NSA does not collect such information, at least not knowingly. The Congressmen sent the letter to Obama on Monday, 10 days after the president gave a much-anticipated speech on the NSA’s role and some new limits on its data collection.
