Sens. Marco Rubio (R-Fla.) and Mark Warner (D-Va.) sent a private letter on Sunday to Director of National Intelligence Avril Haines and Attorney General Merrick Garland regarding the FBI's search of former President Trump's Mar-a-Lago home last week, Rubio's office told Axios. On Thursday, the Department of Justice filed a motion to unseal parts of the search warrant. In remarks announcing the news, Garland said he had "personally approved the decision to seek a search warrant." “In his remarks, Attorney General Garland claimed there was a substantial public interest in the execution of an unprecedented search warrant on President Trump," Rubio said in a statement. "As such, the Intelligence Committee has asked the Department of Justice to share with us, on a classified basis, the specific intelligence documents seized from Mar-a-Lago," he added. The spokesperson confirmed the panel "requested that DOJ and ODNI provide the committee with the classified documents that were seized in the search of Mar-a-Lago, and an assessment of potential risks to national security as a result of their mishandling." The members of the Senate Intel committee are asking to review the documents in a classified setting, giving them greater access to the materials that were unable to be shared with the public.
