The Office of the Director of National Intelligence on Friday said it would provide election-security information to Congress through written materials rather than in-person briefings, sparking outrage among Democrats just two months before the presidential election.
In letters to the House and Senate intelligence committees, among others, Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe said his office would provide lawmakers with "written finished intelligence products" on foreign threats to the election to prevent leaks of classified information and ensure the materials aren't "misunderstood" or "politicized."
