Pentagon Renames Auditorium Previously Honoring James Clapper

The auditorium at the Defense Intelligence Agency is now named after Thomas Knowlton instead of James Clapper.
Clapper, a former Director of National Intelligence, has been criticized by Trump for his involvement in the Russia investigation.
Pentagon officials claim Clapper's legacy is unfit for recognition due to allegations of politicizing intelligence.
The name change reflects ongoing partisan divisions regarding the handling of the Russia investigation.
