Sen. Rand Paul, a Kentucky Republican, said Monday he would back CIA Director Mike Pompeo to be secretary of state after getting what he said were assurances about Iraq and Afghanistan. Paul had previously opposed Pompeo's nomination. He made his announcement just ahead of a vote on Pompeo's nomination in the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. Enough senators have announced support for Pompeo to be confirmed by the full Senate.
