Who is Judge Moore from Clear and Present Danger and what is their importance?

Judge Moore is the Director of the CIA. He has acquiesced to the initiation of the covert operations against the Colombian Drug cartel. His intention to legalize these operations is to invoke SAHO, the special and hazardous operations codicil, whereby select members of the Congressional Oversight Committee will be made aware of the details. He suppresses his own personal reservations about the justification for these operations and tries to keep the newly appointed Director of Intelligence, Jack Ryan, out of the loop involving them. He and Bob Ritter, the Deputy Director of Operations, maintain the lie about the covert operations until, Jack Ryan, forces their hands.
