Ric Grenell, a favorite of President Donald Trump, confirmed in a tweet on Sunday that he plans to step down as U.S. ambassador to Germany.
Grenell had recently served as acting director of the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. Representative John Ratcliffe of Texas was confirmed to the DNI post -- essentially, to be the nation’s top spy chief -- by the U.S. Senate last week.
