Senate intelligence chairman Richard Burr said Monday he won't be the one who makes the Russian-linked Facebook election ads public.
At the same time, the North Carolina Republican said President Donald Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner has responded to the committee's letter expressing concerns about his private email account, saying he did not mislead Congress in his private interview with Senate staff when he failed to disclose the account created earlier this year.
Burr said he considers the ads committee-sensitive documents.
"The committee doesn't release documents," Burr said Monday. "It won't happen out of the senate intelligence committee. We don't release documents. It's a bad precedent to set for anybody else that would produce documents."
