Senate Intelligence Committee Chairman Mark Warner and Vice Chairman Marco Rubio expressed deep disappointment Wednesday over the panel's inability to access the classified documents that have been found in the possession of two presidents -- a sign of bipartisan frustration over the issue.
Warner, a Democrat from Virginia, warned after a briefing by Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines that "all things will be on the table" to ensure the committee can conduct its constitutional responsibility of oversight.
He added that "every member" of the committee was "unanimous" that the Justice Department's position, to not allow the committee to see the documents found at former President Donald Trump and President Joe Biden's properties until the special counsels approve it, "is not going to stand, and all things will be on the table to make sure that doesn't happen."
