Chip Somodevilla/Getty Images President Donald Trump's nominee for secretary of state, Mike Pompeo, is facing serious opposition before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee. The full Senate is still expected to consider Pompeo's nomination later this week. But the rare rebuke expected from the panel Monday. Pompeo's confirmation before the full Senate now hangs in balance, with the votes of just a handful of senators determining whether he becomes the nation's top diplomat after Trump fired Rex Tillerson last month.

The full Senate is still expected to consider Pompeo's nomination later this week.
