The leader of the House Intelligence Committee put out a warning Wednesday of a "serious national security threat" that sources around Washington say is related to Russia. Rep. Mike Turner, R-Ohio, the committee's chair, released a statement through the committee's official social media channels stating that he released information about the enigmatic threat to members of Congress. In a letter to members announcing the information available, Turner and the panel's top Democrat Rep. Jim Himes of Connecticut, said that the committee “has identified an urgent matter with regard to a destabilizing foreign military capability that should be known by all congressional policymakers.” Thumbnail photo: The Associated Press FULL STORY: https://nbcmontana.com/news/nation-world/gallery/lawmaker-warns-of-a-serious-national-security-threat-house-intelligence-committee-chairman-mike-turner-republican-representative-from-ohio-president-joe-biden?photo=5 Stay up to date with our digital and social media content: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/NBCMontana Twitter: https://twitter.com/NBCMontana Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/nbc_montana/ Latest local news and weather: https://nbcmontana.com/ Latest Weather Forecast: https://nbcmontana.com/weather Download our App: https://nbcmontana.com/station/nbc-montana-news-and-weather-app Share Your Photos and Videos: https://NBCMontana.com/ChimeIn Send us News Tips: [email protected] Call our newsroom: 406-721-5642 NBC Montana is a MT based station and a NBC Television affiliate owned and operated by Sinclair Broadcast Group.
