Trump administration officials and one Capitol Hill aide confirmed to the Washington Examiner that Gabbard planned to brief panel members at the Capitol on Wednesday afternoon but had to attend meetings at the White House instead.
Office of the Director of National Intelligence spokeswoman Alexa Henning said the office will reschedule the briefing as soon as the committee provides possible dates, as “there was a bipartisan agreement to do so given schedules on the Senate side.”
A source familiar with the matter told the Washington Examiner that the Senate Intelligence Committee, not Gabbard, first requested the rescheduling, saying, “At least seven senators wouldn’t have been in attendance because they were leaving D.C. before or during.”
