The Senate Intelligence Committee continues to back up the findings of the intelligence community about Russia’s efforts to meddle in the 2016 presidential election, according to a new update.

In a new document on the panel’s progress, the Intelligence Committee also said it would release its review of the U.S. government’s handling of the so-called “Dossier” in a future part of its investigation.

The update includes a finding of inconsistency in confidence level between the National Security Agency, and the FBI and CIA with respect to Russian President Vladimir Putin’s efforts to help the prospects for electing Donald Trump by denigrating Democratic nominee Hillary Clinton.
