Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Defense Secretary James Mattis went to Capitol Hill Wednesday to brief senators ahead of a vote they're expected to take on military aid to Saudi Arabia. Senators had hoped to hear from another administration official, CIA Director Gina Haspel, but she was not scheduled to participate in the briefing.
Haspel is the sole official of the three reported to have listened to the audio that allegedly depicts the killing of Jamal Khashoggi, the Saudi journalist was killed by Saudi operatives in the Saudi consulate in Istanbul last month.
Pompeo will hold a press briefing with reporters after the briefing Wednesday morning, around noon.
