Republicans threaten State Dept. subpoena over classified Afghanistan cable.

TL;DR Summary
House Foreign Affairs Committee Chairman, Rep. Michael McCaul, has threatened to subpoena the State Department for a cable written by diplomats at the U.S. Embassy in Kabul expressing urgent concerns about deteriorating security before the U.S.-backed government there collapsed and ceded the country to the Taliban. The State Department has provided lawmakers with some, but not all, of the requested documents. The Biden administration's chaotic exit from Afghanistan has led to ongoing reckoning and newly emboldened House Republicans vowing accountability for miscalculations and mistakes made.
