The Republican chairman of the Senate Intelligence Committee warned on Aug. 29 that congressional oversight of intelligence activities is in crisis after the Office of the Director of National Intelligence (ODNI) told lawmakers that it will opt for written election intelligence briefings to prevent further leaks from congressional sources.

“Congressional oversight of intelligence activities now faces a historic crisis,” Senate Select Committee on Intelligence (SSCI) acting Chairman Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) said in a statement.
