This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Former acting attorney general sally yates finally got a chance to tell her is story on capitol hill. She went before the Senate Judiciary committee which is investigating russian influence in the president ial election. Senators were eager to hear her side of the story regarding Michael Flynn and what the white house was told about his ties to the kremlin. Jeff pegues has the details. Reporter sally yates said she felt compelled to fell the white house that mike flynn had misled the Vice President about his contacts with sergei kislyak. They had gathered intercepts of his conversations. Dianne feinstein. What youre saying is, general flynn lied to the Vice President. Thats certainly how it appeared, yes. Because the Vice President went out and made statements about general flynns conduct that he said were based on what general flynn told him. And we knew that that flat wasnt true. I Donald John Trump do solemnly swear. Reporter four days after President Trumps inauguration, flynn was interviewed by fbi agents at the white house as part of the bureaus investigation into russian meddling in the election. Two days later, on the 26th, yates met at the white house with the president s lawyer. She informed him then that flynn had been compromised. The russians also knew about what general flynn had done, and the russians also knew that general flynn had misled the Vice President. This was a problem, because not only did we believe that the russians knew this but that they likely had proof of this information. And that created a compromise situation. A situation where the National Security adviser essentially could be blackmailed by the russians. Reporter the next day, yates met with mcgann again, he asked whether the Justice Department was pursuing charges against flynn. They were concerned that taking action might interfere with the fbi investigation. And we told him both the senior career official and i that he should not be concerned with it. Reporter mcgann then asked to see the evidence against flynn. Three days later, on january 30th, yates agreed. But that night, the Obama Administration holdover was fired for refusing to defend the president s travel ban. I dont know what happened after that, because that was my last day with doj. Reporter even after yates warning the white house didnt act right away. It took more than two weeks for flynn to be fired. President trump called flynn a wonderful man even after he was fired. Today on twitter, mr. Trump wrote, ask sally yates how clastfied information got into the newspapers soon after she explained it to the white house. Yates denied being the source of those leaks.

This is just the start of a roadshow for the Kushner Company family many. Reporter new york fiems reporter Xavier Hernandez was at the event and said it included pictures of President Trump and referenced Jared Kushner specifically. I think for the Chinese Investor whose were there they felt like this project was safe and secure because it had the governments support. And whether that was her intention or not, i think a lot of people walked away with that perception. Reporter the session was open to the public but hernandez and owne other journalists were forced out of the ritzcarlton baum room. In a statement, they said ms. Meyer wanted to make clear that her brother had nothing to do with this project and apologized if any mention of her brother was seen as an attempt to lure investors. An attorney for kushner said he had divested of the project. Jared has done everything to comply with the ethics. He wasnt involved. Reporter those close to kushner describe this as a mistake of misunderstanding, not malice or profit. They acknowledge there is nothing routine these days about the kushner name or its proximity to the president.
