State Department officials are reportedly facing a grilling from lawmakers behind closed doors Wednesday regarding the suspension of President Biden’s Iran envoy Rob Malley.
The classified briefing before the House Foreign Affairs Committee comes after Chair Rep. Michael McCaul, R-Texas, reached a deal with the State Department to sit down sometime this week, Politico reported, citing a Republican committee aide who spoke on condition of anonymity.
The committee’s highest-ranking Democrat, New York Rep. Gregory Meeks, will also be welcome to the briefing. Politico reported that the State Department confirmed briefings were being arranged in response to lawmakers’ questions about Malley, but declined to get into specifics.
Fox News Digital also reached out to the State Department on Wednesday seeking comment.
