Lt. Gen. Joshua Rudd will appear before a Senate committee for a confirmation hearing to be the National Security Agency head on Monday at 3 p.m.
The NSA has been without a leader since last April after President Donald Trump fired Gen. Timothy Haugh following a meeting with right-wing activist Laura Loomer.
