Senate committee won’t investigate Cruz comments for classified information
BY BNO NEWS

WASHINGTON: -- The U.S. Senate Select Committee on Intelligence says it is not launching an investigation to determine whether comments made by presidential candidate Ted Cruz during Tuesday night’s debate contained classified information.

Committee chairman Senator Richard Burr (R-NC) and Vice Chairman Senator Dianne Feinstein (D-CA) clarified in a brief statement that no investigation was underway, even though Burr had told reporters just hours earlier that his staff was looking into the comments made by Cruz.

“The Committee is not investigating anything said during last night’s Republican presidential debate,” the senators said in the joint statement.

The controversy began when Cruz made a comment about the National Security Agency’s surveillance programs during an exchange with Senator Marco Rubio.

Much to the dismay of Committee member Marco Rubio who should know whether Cruz revealed classified information. Maybe other committee members didn't want to feed Rubio's candidacy?
