what i call the secret confirmation process it won t be the last. we expect to hear from past intelligence leaders like pres. obama s cia director john brennan who was one of the key decision-makers. republicans like liz cheney had this to say. any senators who oppose her or say we shouldn t have water boarded out to be able to tell the american people how many american lives they are willing to sacrifice so they don t have to waterboarding terrorist. reporter: they will not vote on the nomination until next week, full vote on the senate for the following week. we are letting democratic sources tell fox haspel may win the support of some democrats and see how it goes. jillian: a decades old
there kayaked down the slopes and into icy water. just for the fun of it. the midwest got hammered by strong winds and tornadolike weather and now a brutal storm is heading south. rob marciano is tracking it. hi, rob. good morning. a couple tornado warnings. this is getting more active as we go through the morning hours. one across parts of arkansas. this one pretty far south of little rock. little rock itself is getting hit pretty good. this includes union county and columbia county right in through there just north of the louisiana border. then a smaller cell embedded within a lot of rain. so this one you probably wouldn t see. this is in through mississippi county. and new madrid county. new madrid county near paducah. all these storms are moving east-northeast fairly rapidly along this frontal line that had a history of producing some damaging winds and some big-time hail. so that s going to be the main threat. and then we have the potential for that tornado. those tornadoes an
people against the united states. so it gives them fuel to do that. zain verjee live in london, thank you. to japan now, and its handling of that u.n. nuclear crisis not u.n. let s talk about this nuclear crisis, shall we? workers are having a hard time fixing a crack, letting radioactive water seep out. they re planning to dump about 11,500 tons of radioactive water from the fukushima power plant into the pacific ocean. efforts to seal a crack in one of those damaged reactors failed over the weekend. the power company says it can t continue to hold all that radioactive water, it has to do something with it. one idea being considered to stop the radiation leaking is to actually wrap the entire facility in massive sheeting. the latest toll in the march 11th quake and tsunami, more than 12,000 dead, more than 15,000 missing, nearly 3,000 injured. you didn t really have to be a washington insider to see this
i ll have that at the top of the hour. i m rob marciano. we are tracking severe weather across the southeast. plus radioactive water out of the fukushima power plant. we ll show you ocean currents and what it means for you in the next hour. thanks to all of you. after all the upsets and other shockers, most people s march madness brackets are a mess. in oregon, though, a lie brbrar is 4 for 4. and you will not believe how she chose her winners. i will ask her in the next hour. it s about being active and it s about putting the right fuel in your body. it s that simple. and here s the good news it s never too late to start. quaker oatmeal is proven to help lower cholesterol. it s a staple in my diet. in fact, it s the only cereal i eat. it powers you up and it makes you feel great. are you eating quaker for breakfast?
stop radiation leaking from the plant is actually to wrap the entire facility in massive sheeting. the latest toll in the march 11th quake and tsunami, more than 12,000 dead, more than 15,000 still missing and nearly 3,000 injured. a lot of people worry about that radiation in the water currents. rob marciano joins us now. so when you hear that they re thinking of dumping tons of radioactive water into the pacific ocean, that s concerning. it is. and when you think about what we talked about the end of last week, which was that the water around that plant was already so radioactive, over 4,000 times more radioactive as far as radio iodine is concerned with the waters just off the facility. and that s not as big of a deal as the ceisium they found which has a half-life of 30 years versus 8 days. that was about 500 times the normal amount. and that was in the pacific ocean. what s going on is that we have these tunnels. and we have other facilities within the turbine building that
