The Administration allowed this to happen. <\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cAs the Biden State Department refused to provide this information, Chairman McCaul successfully fought through months of opposition and made good on his promise to ensure that every member of the Foreign Affairs Committee would have access to this cable.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>\u201cUltimately, this document was restricted from public view not because it is secret, but because it is embarrassing.
