The chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee on Monday said the Biden administration’s refusal to release key details behind President Biden’s mishandling of classified documents to lawmakers “doesn’t pass the smell test.”
Sen. Mark Warner, Virginia Democrat, said lawmakers on both sides of the aisle remain frustrated following a closed-door hearing in January in which the Office of the Director of National Intelligence blocked the release of key details of the documents until the Department of Justice concludes its investigations.
Lawmakers said the administration’s stonewalling impeded the committee’s ability to do its job of providing oversight of the intelligence community. Sen. John Cornyn, Texas Republican on the committee, said in January that the briefing raised questions about whether the ODNI had viewed the documents or was being barred from doing so until the Justice Department completed its investigation.
