Breaking news, Michael Flynn forced to resign three weeks after the white house was told by the Justice Department that he could be vulnerable to russian blackmail for not telling the truth about his contacts with the ss abcs chief White House Correspondent jon karl has all the latest and, jon, this is extraordinary. The white house was warned that the president S National Security adviser could be a National Security threat. Reporter unbelievable, george. And flynn really had no choice but to resign. He had misled the white house and the president had clearly lost confidence in him. General flynn was front and center but he had already fallen out of favor. The president refusing to even answer whether he had confidence in him. Do you have confidence in Michael Flynn, mr. President . Reporter in his letter of resignation flynn made it clear he was leaving because he had misled Vice President pence and other senior officials about his conversations with the Russian Ambassador. Quote, i inadvertently briefed the Vice President elect and others with incomplete information regarding my phone calls with the Russian Ambassador. Vice president pence took that inaccurate information and television. What i can confirm having spoken to him about is that those conversations that happened to occur around the time that the United States took action to expel diplomats had nothing whatsoever to do with those sanctions. Reporter but that was not true. The Justice Department became aware of flynns lie through routine surveillance of the Russian Ambassador and notified the white house weeks ago. But it wasnt until friday that flynn personally apologized to the Vice President. The shakeup comes at a critical time for President Trump. A missile test over the weekend by north korea. Rising tensions with iran and a key visit wednesday by israeli Prime MinisterBibi Netanyahu to the white house. Keith kellogg will serve as acting National Adviser for now. Also under consideration as a permanent replacement general David Petraeus and retired navy s. E. A. L. Vice admiral robert harwood. The search for a replacement a permanent replacement for flynn begins right now. I am told general petraeus will be here at the white house today. But the frontrunner here seems to be vice admiral bob woodruha who has a close relationship with general mattis. Stand by, well come back to you in a minute. You have pierre. Patrick mcenroe for more on what the white house and Justice Department knew and when. Good morning, pierre. What do you know. Reporter good morning, robin. A key moment in this drama came when sally yates began seeing top transition officials saying flynn did not discuss obama sanctions on ruks hacking with that countrys ambassador. Yates, a source tells me, knew that fbi agents had captured a phone call between flynn and the Russian Ambassador discussing those very sanctions. She became increasingly when then Vice President elect pence said on national tv that flynn told him he did not discuss the sanctions. On january 23rd after the inauguration, White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer repeated the same false claim. Shortly afterward yates apparently decided she had no choice but to inform the white house that they had been misled and she and other officials were concerned about the potential of the russians blackmailing flynn. Pierre, are there any legal implications here . It doesnt appear that any charges are imminent but officials are concerned that flynn was having these conversations, robin. They want to know how many did he have and what precisely were they talking about . Again, threeweek period. So many questions and lets bring jon karl back as well as matthew dowd our chief political analyst and cecilia vega here and, jon, lets begin with the threeweek gap. As we said its kind of extraordinary. Around january 23rd. Sally yates tells the white House Counsel that flynn could be vulnerable to blackmail yet thats going to be the big question for the white house. Why. Reporter the big question is did the president know about it three weeks ago. I asked that directly of senior officials. The only answer ive gotten is that the evaluation of flynn that ultimately led to his ouster began weeks ago so what officials insist is they knew about this and started to evaluate and look into it weeks ago. We dont know about the president himself. The president was asked about the initial the Washington Post story breaking this news on friday on air force one and told reporters that he hadnt seen the reports yet. So just to underscore that we dont know yet or the white house isnt telling us yet whether the president or the Vice President who had been misled were told about this phone call from sally yates at the Justice Department. Reporter i of course aed that directly and have not gotten an answer. Matthew dowd, kind of unbelievable. Every time we think its unprecedented. It gets more. Day massacre from russia with love in this. This is a contagion and virus. Russia. The whole operation at the white house. Not just you throw out the guy with the fever, Michael Flynn. There will be an investigation and as of today, weve learned that its not okay to mislead the president and Vice President. But it is still okay to mississippi lead the public whos been misled in this whole thing is the question and finally as a president governs by his legal and moral authority and both are in question this morning. A lot to talk about and cecilia vega, one of the points that matthew makes is we know there is an fbi investigation going on now about the russian contacts, intelligence investigation. Calls in the Intelligence Committee to look into this in the senate and house as well but this is going to intensify calls for an independent investigation as well. Reporter and it already is, george. Democrats especially on capitol hill smell blood in this political water and they are not backing off as you can imagine. But just take a look at this one tweet thats out from former u. S. Ambassador to r micha michael mcfaul. He tweets as flynn steps down i have even more questions about the russian role in our elections. We need to investigate. This is not going to end right now, the top democrat on the house Intelligence Committee is also saying that investigations need to continue. Not surprisingly perhaps, george, the group quiet, republicans on capitol hill. Theyre not really getting into this mess yet. Matthew dowd, only 3 1 2 weeks in to this administration, not even coming up on the monthlong mark. How do they reboot . I think theyre in total disarray in the moment of this and will have to replace a National Security adviser and the taff as weve always talked about, the taff at the white house is actually more important than cabinet officials and spent more time on cabinet officials and less time at staff and, george, i remember we talked within days of the election and about one of the main things that might dog President Trump was his the connections with russia and weve learned, one, Michael Flynn had connections with russia. He reresigned. Paul manafort, he the whole russian situation is wide open. Raises questions about credibility. Matthew suggested that and the white house had this information for three weeks yet didnt correct the record. Reporter absolutely and, george, also questions about dysfunction at the National Security council. I have talked to i talked to a senior official there who basically threw his hands up yesterday saying that he couldnt get answers or decisions made on key things. This is the incredibly busy time, the president is pursuing changes, big changes in u. S. Foreign policy. Foreign leader visits and you have this dysfunction at the top and as you mentioned, lack of, you know, a question of the record of whats told to the public, you cant really it seems trust what youre being told. Let me bring Pierre Thomas back as well. Pierre, initially when this information first came to sally yates when president obama was still in office, she questione the trump administration. Apparently at that time james comey, the fbi director resisted because his investigation is ongoing and that investigation continues. Reporter the investigation continues, again, as i said earlier, the key question is how many contacts are we talking about . And what precisely was general flynn talking about with his Russian Ambassador is the key question. They need to know that and so now the question becomes, were there contacts prior to trump being elected . These are aquestions that everybody wants to know the answers to. Thank you all very much. Michael. Thank you, george. To flooding fears in california and people rushing to shore up the dam dropping rocks from helicopters before a new storm moves in and abcs Kayna Whitworth is on the scene, good morning, kayna. Reporter michael, good morning. They are pumping water out of that this river swelling over its banks. You can see how high it is on the tree and how fast the water is moving. Evacuation orders are still in place despite the fact that water levels are dropping at the dam. The trick is they have to get it down 50 feet before it rains again on thursday. Overnight, efforts to make repairs to the oroville dam under way. Large bags of rocks dropped into the massive holes of both the primary and emergency spillways by helicopter. No more water rushed over the emergency spillway but the main spillway which was damaged a week ago is still in use. Im seven miles downstream from the dam and this is the feather river. It is raging in places where its normally dry. So if that spillway were to fail the sheer amount of water released into this river would be devastating. Near nearly 200,000 forced to flee their hopes. Im scared because ive never been in anything like this before. Reporter authorities fearing the worst. Were looking at a 30foot wall of water coming out of the lake. Reporter some leaving food on their plates at dennys. A mad rush to escape and sitting in line and gas stations running out of fuel. Our phone started going off and we immediately loaded up the kids and took off. Reporter water levels in the lake dropping but evacuation orders remain in place. Get everything in place where they can return. Reporter many wondering when theyll get back home. I want to go home but, of course, you want to be safe. Reporter overnight we learned that three Environmental Companies warned state officials about problems with that emergency spillway and they did it back in 2005. I looked through the documents last night and according to them, they needed that spillway to be paved or as they called it armored because a spillway should never be designed so that it might guys. Tough situation. Yeah, hopefully they can get it all figured out for everyone who lives in that area. Now we go from the storm to the battle for your phone bill. Verizon announced it will now offer an unlimited data plan and Rebecca Jarvis is here and already companies are responding already to their move. This is the new battleground. I spoke it tmobiles ceo and say this is a wireless war. The more we bingewatch on devices and use them for everything the pore data we used and verizon was forced into this, consumers, many leaving for the competition which offers unlimited plans. Their new unlimited plan is 80 for one, 180 for four and tmobile responding by upping the ante and the ceo is saying theyre offering two unlimited lines for 100 a month.

This is still a very fluid situation. Yeah, there are security concerns tied to maralago. What President Trump calls the winter white house raised by these questions discussing it in front of guests and members and tom llamas is here with the details. The big question did this open meeting have the potential to compromise National Security . Reporter the white house is saying no but President Trump is facing growing criticism over what some Top Democrats as the situation room al fresco. President trump and japans Prime Minister abe dining in public at maralago this weekend. Learning north korea Just Launched a Ballistic Missile into the sea of japan. The two appearing t preliminary response right there in front of other diners. Maralago member Richard Deagazio writing, the president receiving the news about the missile incident and this, holy moley, it was fascinating to watch the flurry of activity at dinner. Wow. The center of the action. Donald trump talks about making america secure. Security gierschs at home. Reporter House Democratic leader nancy pelosi also outraged. Tweeting, theres no excuse for letting an International Crisis play out in front of a bunch of Country Club Members like dinner theater. The white house says the president and abe were only discussing logistics of a News Conference at the table. Not classified information. And that President Trump had been briefed in a secure location prior to dinner. But in the photos on social media, you can see aides including Stephen Bannon huddled around the president and others using cell phone lights to illuminate documents for the leaders. Theres a sign that there is a lack of security, maturity and seriousny among the president and his team and i would expect that to change. Reporter the maralago images, a stark contrast to this image posted by president obamas photographer who said outside of the white house, all National Security briefings and head of state phone calls were held inside a secure location. Some now questioning if maralago is not private enough for the president. Security is ramped up when President Trump is visiting but members can come and go. Membership isnt cheap. Initiation fees just went up from 100,000 to 200,000 along with 14,000 in yearly dues. But the price may be worth it for some who apparently get to watch the west wing work right out on the patio. Just ask that member who posted these photos from dinner. A military aide writing this is rick. He carries the football. The nuclear football. Rick is the man. Now, we also want to mention as that volatile situation in asia was unfolding the president also found time to stop by a wedding happening at maralago. He gave a toast to the newlyweds and took this photo thumbs up with the bridal party. Okay, tom, thanks very much. Just moments ago i spoke with the president s senior counselor Kellyanne Conway on todays big story general Michael Flynn. And, we are back with Kellyanne Conway, the president s counselor. Kellyanne, thanks for joining us. The big story general Michael Flynn. The white house was told by the Justice Department last month that flynn is vulnerable was vulnerable but stayed on the job for 17 days after the warning from the Justice Department. Why . George, general flynn continued on the National Security team and kept doing the president ial briefings being on the leader of the Justice Department opinion but the fact is that not until yesterday general flynn continued in his job and it became increasingly i understand that but thats my question. The question is why . The white House Counsel was told by sally yates of the Justice Department that the general flynn was vulnerable to russian blackmail. Did the white House Counsel tell President Trump that in i dont know the answer to that and President Trump has asked me to join you today to say that he accepted the resignation of general flynn and really the key here in that resignation is very simple. Its that the Vice President , mike pence was misled by general flynn or general flynn could not completely recall what his conversations had been. But you knew that but, kellyanne, the white house knew that almost three weeks ago. They knew that after the Justice Department told the white House Counsel almost three weeks ago that general flynn had not told the truth about those phone calls and was vulnerable to these are what are printed reports. I cant reveal what the white house knew or didnt know. All i can tell you is that general flynn as the National Security adviser to the president continued in that role and the president also is wants me to refer everyone to the comments of Charles Krauthammer on a Different Network wherein he makes the point that its the misleading of the Vice President or the incomplete information. Its either its being dishonest or forgetful and id like to say general flynn had a 30 plus year honorable career in the military, one of the chief intelligence officer, key Intelligence Officers of a generation and were sorry for this situation buts president accepted his resignation and moving on. I understand what youre saying there, kellyanne, but this is exactly the point. Three weeks ago the Justice Department told the white house that general flynn was misleading the Vice President , was misleading the public about you had that information. The white house had that information. Chose to keep general flynn in his job, chose not to correct the record, chose not to tell the public what they knew about general flynns phone calls. How could that be . But, george, again, im not here to say who knew what when. Because first of all that would be divulging information that is highly sensitive and secondly i dont know all the details. I havent spoken to everyone that youre talking about. In that instance. It was obviously very fluid into the night. We were here very late last night. The upshot of it is general flynn did have a conversation with Vice President pence, apart what youre saying in printed reports. And general flynn assured Vice President pence of something that turned out to not be true and thats really the key here. I think that general flynn in the e decided he was a lightning rod and did not want to be a distraction and he tendered his resignation last night because, because what he had provided the Vice President either misleading information or forgetfulness and neither one was sustainable long term. Kellyanne, i got to get to the bottom of this here. You asked to come on at the president s request. The president wants you to come out and speak for the white house this morning. Do you know if the president was told three weeks ago when sally yates told the white House Counsel that general flynn had been compromised. Do you know if the president was told that. I do not. Do you know if the Vice President was told that. I do not know that. Do you know why the white house chose not to correct the record for those three weeks . Well, again, youre presuming that all the information you have there is completely factual and who knew what when and this is very fluid. I mean, the bottom line is, that as time wore on, as everybody continued in their roles, it became increasingly apparent particularly over the weekend when general flynn clarified his own earlier statement, george, a statement that he had provided to the Vice President and that other members of the administration, frankly, went out and pli which is that he had not discussed the certain topic in his conversations with the Russian Ambassador. And so, when general flynn clarified the comments its possible and he could not recall that accelerated matters in a way that was different and thats where we are today. It is a fact that the Justice Department did tell the white House Counsel information almost three weeks ago. You said late yesterday afternoon the president had full confidence in general flynn. How could that be true . The president is very loyal. It became unsustainable and last night he accepted the resignation of general flynn. Today he is moving on. It just became clear well need to have acting National Security adviser general Keith Kellogg in the role. Hes been working very closely with the president for a number of months and then, of course, weve been talking about a former navy s. E. A. L. And vice admiral general David Petraeus. Thanks very much. Pretty clear that these questions for the white house just beginning. Why cant these questions be answered . That is one of the biggest questions. Why does the president have Kellyanne Conway ask to have her come on our program if she cant answer the simple yes or no questions about what happened with general flynn. All right.

It is great to have the new bachelorette Rachel Lindsay here. Welcome to the show. Thank you for having me. Congratulations to you couldnt say anything about this until last night. So, what has the reaction been since youve gotten it out there. I havent been on social media so i havent seen that much yet but the cast members that i was on the season with have been great. Giving me great, you know, congrats and family and friends have been wonderful too so its im just glad i dont have to keep it a secret anymore. Thats got to be a pretty hard thing to do. Youre on the current season which makes it now theyll go but its still going. Little spoiler alert for most people. When you were first asked to be the bachelorette, any hesitations on your part. No, im a skeptical person so i was definitely i was excited that they asked me to do it but i was also equally nervous. When i started to weigh out the pros and con, i decided this is too good an opportunity to turn away. Youre making history. First africanamerican bachelorette and how does that make you feel . That added pressure, you think. I dont feel added pressure. Im honored to have this myself as an africanamerican woman and i just hope that people rally behind me like they did in nicks season the same or hope they will in my season and just realize my journey is, you know, im just trying to find love. Even im an africanamerican woman its no different than any other bachelorette. Im just a woman trying to find a man. Just trying to find a man. Thats it. You did it. You understand it. I love that.

And she just wanted to make sure nick was comfortable with it. And one more thing. What is your im pretty and least favorite part about the bachelor . A lot have misconceptions about the show and think its fancy trips and dinners. What is your favorite and least favorite part . Least favorite was living in a house full of women. [ laughter ] yeah, yeah, sharing a room with that many women, i mean, i was in a sorority, i havent done that in year, that was definitely my least favorite part. My favorite part were the surprises. You know, the friends that i made on the show, the relationship that i had with nick. I didnt think we would click the way that we did and i really enjoyed the process that we had making our relationship grow. And now we know the track record of the show. How are you going to avoid some of the pass pitfalls. You know, i said this on the show all the type.

Im melanie 4 people arrested for stealing prescription drugs from a cvs. Police tell us it happened around 1 00 a. M. At the same location hit by an armed robber last month. No word on if the incidences are related. Lets check the weather for your valentines day. Reporter we have clouds out, there watching future cast, popping up a shower here midmorning, isolated snowflake or two to the west. Middle burg to marshal. A few flakes from manassas around 10 00. By noon, isolated sprinkle to the south, its out of here. Very slight chance. Otherwise clouds break for sunshine later in the day. Low 50s. Should be perfect for your afternoon and evening plans. Reporter not seeing anything unusual. Typical congestion for this time of morning, especially around the capital beltway. If you travel metro, keep in mind we have started safe track surge no. 12, that means the Arlington Cemetery station is closed on the no trains between rosslyn and pentagon city. Use the yellow or silver. Delays on 295, as well as 395, trying to get to the southeast southwest freeway. Capital beltway remains a struggle on the inner loop from the spring field mixing bowl. Weve had 5 accidents on the trip toward gallows road. No such issues on the Prince Georges County side, just volume delays on the outer loop near the bw parkway. Anchor thank you. We want you to know during 9 00 of good morning were celebrating valentines day. For those who are maybe just bit ter over the day weve got you covered.
