US House Intelligence Committee Cancels All Meetings This Week - Reports

The US House Intelligence Committee has canceled all meetings scheduled for this week, CNN reported citing committee sources.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — The full committee meetings were canceled due to tension over Chairman Devin Nunes’ decision to cancel a public hearing.

The full House Intelligence Committee usually meets twice a week, and was scheduled to meet Tuesday with FBI Director James Comey and National Security Agency (NSA) Director Michael Rogers in a private session.

Last week, Nunes cancelled a planned open hearing with Director of National Intelligence James Clapper, former CIA Director John Brennan and former deputy Attorney General Sally Yates.
