House Intel Committee Chairman Devin Nunes (R-CA) is not a happy man after FBI Deputy Director Andrew McCabe bailed on his scheduled Tuesday testimony – which has been rescheduled to next Tuesday. Despite the DOJ emailing the committee as late as 7:23 pm Monday night in preparation for McCabe’s testimony, the agency\u00a0blamed a scheduling conflict<\/strong>\u00a0for the no-show.\u00a0Nunes told reporters that he was “extremely troubled<\/strong>,” and that the scheduling conflict was\u00a0“not really believable<\/strong>,” though he\u00a0allowed McCabe to reschedule without issuing any subpoenas.<\/p>\n

“The security director for the FBI sent over [Monday] night at 7:23 the security clearance for Mr. McCabe,” said Nunes, adding, “so it seems like everyone in the building over there … knew that Mr. McCabe was supposed to be here today<\/strong>. But they’re blaming a scheduling snafu …\u00a0It would be a high level of incompetence for people that are normally pretty smart.”<\/strong><\/p>\n

Nunes warned that McCabe’s next no-show would result in subpoenas and a possible contempt charge:<\/p>\n

“We have a commitment, again, that McCabe is going to show up next Tuesday [Dec. 19] at 2:00,” said Nunes, adding “so we will be following up with letters …\u00a0if none of that is followed up with, then we will move forward with contempt and we will issue additional subpoenas<\/strong>.” Nunes is also\u00a0sending investigators to the DOJ Thursday to do a “scrub” of documents<\/strong>\u00a0the agency has failed to provide.<\/p>\n
