That Intelligence Committee report is bipartisan. What it shows is that the Russians began this misinformation and disinformation attack on our democracy as early as 2014, well before the 2016 election. They are continuing. They probed and scanned, they have activities ongoing in at least 21 states, and there's unanimity in the Intelligence Committee. So the lack of Republican involvement or not engagement here is really a disservice to our country.
