Pelosi urges caution about 'statements coming out about the election from the intelligence community

Although Democrats have accepted the new revelation from the intelligence community that both Russia and Iran have obtained voter data in their efforts to interfere in the election, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on Thursday urged caution on statements coming from the intelligence community less than two weeks from Election Day.

Director of National Intelligence John Ratcliffe and FBI Director Christopher Wray held a surprise press conference Wednesday night to announce the foreign interference, including news of threatening emails purporting to be from the alt-right group the Proud Boys, who have denied any involvement.

"I think we have to be very careful about any statements coming out about the election from the intelligence community at this time," Pelosi said.

House Intelligence Committee Chairman Adam Schiff said that he doesn't question the actions, but is wary of some who get information from overseas.
