Coons: Intel panel to get access to Russia raw data

Coons: Senate intel committee to get access to 'raw data' on Russia

"I'm encouraged that this week, the Senate Intelligence Committee is getting access to the raw intelligence that is directly relevant to this Russia investigation," Coons said. "There is a significant body of data -- they will begin the process of accessing it, and I don't think anything is going to be made public. Nothing is going to come out publicly, and the intelligence committee has a very important, very sensitive job to do here. I am encouraged they're not being prevented from getting access to the information so far."

if we know what he knew we would be out of our minds.

Will this ever come to the light of day?

It will be classified and what you wanna bet they will not be allowed to tell us what it says.
