A pair of herring gulls flap, fuss and take flight as the lifeguards set to work. The sun glints off of the i360 observation tower in the distance as they slide
we don t. if that s potentially he didn t know whether this person had ties to return intel, right? that could be a possible defense but we don t know? it could be. that he is innocent and didn t know the connection. okay. so you heard manu raju reporting there on katie mcfarlane. currently she is nominating pending senate confirmation to be the ambassador to singapore. but now we have learned that what she said in her answer, in her writ answer as part of these confirmation proceedings about what she knew about michael flynn s contact with the russian ambassador. we now know that she was not being forth coming. how is this going to play for her, do you think 12? well, i ve watched a lot of ambassador appointments out of the years in government as well as out of, this is the typically the kind of thing that can disqualify someone. so i wouldn t be surprised if
i just don t know. but, look, it s a problem. and her nomination is frozen for a while until that gets worked out. and, you know, she knows that, she has to know that herself, and we ll deal with it at the appropriate time. reporter: breanna, source telts me democrats in the senate has placed a hold on katie mcfarlane nomination. that is she s effectualively stalled. she won t get the confirmation vote any time soon unless she answer questions. that s something they do not want to do, so unclear if she will get that post before she answers further questions. yeah, it is hard to see how republicans would go out on a limb for herty point. okay. manu raju on the hill. thank you, sir. there is so much to discuss here. i want to bring in cnn con tr
outcome of this investigation. and you also have reporting about mcfarlane the former trump official about what she knew about michael flynn contact with the russian ambassador. what did you learn? reporter: yeah, that s right. she had testified before the senate foreign relations committee as part of her nomination to be ambassador to singapore. when he was asked in written correspondence whether she knew about any conversations between michael flynn and the russian ambassador kislyak, she said she was not aware of that. it turns out that it shows a senior official did have conversations with michael flynn about kislyak and the issue of russian sanctions and we learned that senior official was katie mcfarlane. now i ask asked senator bob corker what this does for her nomination. here s what he said. if she did testify inappropriately, obviously that s a big, big problem.
