Once again, the machinery of American national security has become entangled in the older, slower machinery of political will.

Domestic political gridlock undermines executive intelligence authority; congressional opposition to Trump appointee reflects institutional checks on presidential power; potential intelligence vacuum may shift advantage to adversaries monitoring U.S. activities.
