Director of National Intelligence James Clapper has submitted his resignation. From NBC News:

Director of National Intelligence James Clapper delivered some reassurance Thursday to Americans worried about the Trump transition — along with his resignation.

“I know a lot of people have been feeling uncertain about what will happen with this Presidential transition,” Clapper said. “There has been a lot of catastrophizing, if I can use that term, in the 24-hour news cycle and social media. So, I’m here with a message: It will be okay.”

The exit of Clapper, who submitted his resignation Wednesday evening, is not a surprise.

What’s surprising is that he’s stayed out of jail. Committing perjury used to be a serious offense.
