The return of Jay Clayton?

But not to the SEC. Reuters is reporting that former SEC Chair Jay Clayton “is in talks for several potential roles” in the new Administration, according to “several sources familiar with the matter.”  Clayton, a political independent, is reportedly “seen as a contender for jobs including attorney general and treasury secretary, according to five sources. Two of the sources said Clayton has also expressed an interest in running the CIA.” According to Reuters, Clayton has advised the transition team that he would be ‘delighted to serve’ in any senior position where he could be effective.”
