GOP threatens Blinken contempt charge over Afghanistan docs

The chairman of the House Foreign Affairs Committee has threatened to hold Secretary of State Antony Blinken in contempt of Congress if the State Department does not turn over classified cables related to the chaotic U. S. withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, on Friday pledged in a letter — obtained by The Associated Press — to escalate the ongoing battle with the State Department over a so-called dissent cable written by diplomats at the U. S. Embassy in Kabul shortly before the August 2021 withdrawal. The new deadline for the State Department to respond is Thursday.

The threat is the latest in an already unprecedented effort by McCaul to force the release of sensitive documents to Congress, setting up what could become a constitutional showdown between House Republicans and the Biden administration on the ability of the legislative branch to conduct oversight.

A State Department spokesperson said Monday that it was “unfortunate" that despite the House Foreign Affairs Committee having received a classified briefing on the dissent cable and a written summary it "continues to pursue this unnecessary and unproductive action.”

3 yr LDR, I sent a nude to a random girl, told on myself and apologized asap. Random told girlfriend 2 days later and fabricated more lies about what was said, gaslighting girlfriend even more. We broke up and in no contact for a month, is it recoverable?

We were on a high note, and had just took a trip together. I loved her. Never physically touched anyone, but understood the emotional damage and embarrassment caused. Instantly regretted my intoxicated decision, took accountability for my actions, apologized with handwritten letter a week later, haven’t heard from her since. We had a future planned together is there any hope? Should I keep fighting for her, and if so how?
