The House intelligence committee’s top Democrat says materials he viewed at the White House Friday were “precisely the same” as the information provided to his Republican counterpart last week.
Rep. Adam Schiff says the White House has not explained why the materials were shared with only one member of the committee, chairman Devin Nunes.
Last week, Nunes said he had seen new information from an unnamed source that raised troubling questions about the dissemination of Trump associates’ communications. He did not disclose at the time that he viewed those materials at the White House.
On Thursday, the White House invited Schiff to see the material. The invitation came only after news reports that White House officials helped Nunes access the secret reports.
