CBSN
Washington — Leaders of U.S. intelligence agencies will appear before the Senate Intelligence Committee on Tuesday to testify about global security threats facing the country.
The hearing, which is set to begin at 10 a.m., will feature testimony from Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, CIA Director John Ratcliffe, FBI Director Kash Patel, National Security Agency Director Gen. Timothy Haugh and Defense Intelligence Agency Director Lt. Gen. Jeffrey Kruse.
The testimony comes a day after it was revealed that top Trump officials inadvertently included Jeffrey Goldberg, the editor of The Atlantic, in a group chat on the encrypted messaging app Signal about the United States' highly sensitive plans to bomb Houthi targets in Yemen. Accounts appearing to be Gabbard and Ratcliffe both participated in the message thread, according to Goldberg.
