McCaul claims State Department is still misleading public over troop withdrawal
US House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul issued a statement on Wednesday and said the State Department continues to fail to comply with the committee’s investigation into the disastrous Afghanistan withdrawal.
“The State Department continues to obstruct my committee’s investigation into the Afghanistan withdrawal and we will not tolerate it,” McCaul said in the statement.
He also stated that the American people deserve answers on the catastrophic Afghanistan withdrawal.
“The U.S. Department of State is misleading the public about its response to Congress on the Afghanistan withdrawal just as it misled the public on the events themselves,” he said.
This comes after McCaul stated last week that he is prepared to issue a subpoena in the event the State Department fails to cooperate with the committee’s document request.
On Monday however, the State Department’s spokesman Ned Price said they were cooperating with the investigation and had already provided information to McCaul.
