Outgoing acting Director of National Intelligence Richard Grenell responded to a request by a top Senate Democrat for the underlying intelligence reports in which former Trump adviser Michael Flynn’s name was unmasked.
On May 20, Sen. Mark Warner (D-Va.), the Senate Intelligence Committee ranking member, sent a letter to Grenell requesting that he declassify intelligence reports in which Obama administration officials had unmasked Flynn’s identity and to explain the rationale for declassifying the unmasking requests. Warner also asked Grenell to “declassify and make publicly available any intelligence report concerning conversations” between Flynn and former Russian Ambassador Sergey Kislyak.
