“Republicans on the House Foreign Affairs Committee are moving Tuesday to hold Secretary of State Antony Blinken in contempt of Congress after a contentious back-and-forth with the Cabinet secretary over an appearance to testify on the chaotic U.S. withdrawal from Afghanistan. Blinken, in a letter to Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, said that he was ‘profoundly disappointed’ in the chairman’s decision to advance contempt proceedings and urged him to find a resolution in ‘good faith.’ ‘As I have made clear, I am willing to testify and have offered several reasonable alternatives to the dates unilaterally demanded by the Committee during which I am carrying out the President’s important foreign policy objectives,’ Blinken wrote in a Sunday letter.” (09/24/24)
