So, it wasn’t just us who were concerned about it. The FBI was concerned about putting a member of Congress on the Intel Committee, that has the rights to see things that others don’t, because of his knowledge and relationship with a Chinese spy, i got that briefing, so I do not believe he should sit on that committee… and I believe there’s 200 other Democrats that can serve on that committee. – Kevin McCarthy	Found on FOX News 1 year ago

Wisconsin is a 50-50 state represented by six Republicans and two Democrats in Congress. – Ben Wikler	Found on CNN 1 year ago
Well, I'm concerned. There's a standard that we follow when it comes to members of Congress and classified information. The door to my office is closed. The person that presents the document to me takes it out of a locked briefcase, hands it to me and watches as I read it. When I finish reading it, he takes it back, puts it in the briefcase and leaves the scene, that's how carefully we review these documents. To think that any of them ended up in boxes in storage one place or the other is just unacceptable. – Dick Durbin	Found on FOX News 1 year ago

The public value of being able to see the human interactions in frustration, in warmth, in all of those things far outweighs the risk that people will play to the cameras.
