* U.S. State Department employees sent a classified dissenting cable prior to the Taliban's takeover of Kabul
* Blinken is expected to miss a 6pm ET deadline Thursday to turn over the memo
* DailyMail.com understands action on contempt of Congress charges will begin on May 24
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman Michael McCaul is preparing his committee to move forward with a contempt of Congress charge against Secretary of State Antony Blinken as soon as May 24 after the State Department is expected to blow past a deadline to hand over a key document related to the August 2021 Afghanistan withdrawal.
The committee is specifically seeking a classified dissenting cable that U.S. State Department employees sent prior to the Taliban's takeover on July 13, 2021. The cable warned about a 'deteriorating' security situation' and urged the immediate evacuation of allies, a warning that the Biden administration did not heed, say Republicans.
Blinken is expected to miss the deadline of 6pm ET Thursday May 11 to hand over the document or legal proceedings would be immediately started against him.

I am in contempt of Congress. Look at the stupid crap they do to score political points.
They need to impeach and convict the whole cabinet.
Mayorkus (May Jerk us (around)) says the border is secure.
Merick garland is a selective prosecutor
Blinken is blocking congress. Get out of Afghanistan or don't, there are ways t retire and retrogrsde.. What Lunchbox Joe did was not it. When Nixon pulled pout of South Vietnam they lasted 2 years or so.
The punk had a father and uncle who were diplomats. You would think that would give him a leg up and perhaps make for a sterling diplomat. No such luck.
how many Trump folks refused to appear before Congress? so fucking what.
U.S. House Jan. 6 Committee subpoenas 5 GOP members who declined to testify
January 6th Kangaroo court was not a properly set up tribunal. It was set up as a Star chamber. Kindly off yourself.

Hillary is the moron that installed a server in her bathroom to hold classified emails.
