"CIA Director Mike Pompeo did not disclose last year that he owned a business linked to a Chinese government-owned company, McClatchy reported.

Pompeo - who was recently nominated by Trump to be secretary of State - failed to disclose his business' ties to a Chinese government oil and gas company in the questionnaire he was required to fill out to be confirmed as CIA director by the Senate."....

Pompeo will need at least a few Democrats to support his confirmation. Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) has opposed his nomination, and Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.) will not be present for the vote as he continues receiving cancer treatment.

Democrats who supported his CIA nomination last year - especially those who are vulnerable in the upcoming midterm election - are rethinking whether they will support Pompeo this time around and could hinder his confirmation."
