Paris terrorist suspect Mohamed Abrini arrested in Belgium
Mohamed Abrini was arrested with two others in Anderlecht, Belgium on Friday for his connection to the Belgium bomb attacks. Investigators are trying to determine if he’s the man seen in the Brussels Airport surveillance video before last month’s deadly attack. Abrini has been tied to the terror attacks on Paris in November. Now authorities can question him about the airport bombings on March 22, part of the attacks that killed 32 people. “For French investigators, this can be very big,” said CNN’s Nic Robertson. “This gives you a much stronger position to be in to get to the truth … to (track) other terrorists on the run down,” Robertson said. “And also to understand precisely what happened in Paris.”

Cruz says an apology to McConnell is not going to happen
On Thursday, Ted Cruz said an apology to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell won’t happen. His exact statement was, “That ain’t gonna happen.” Cruz accused McConnell of lying last year about betraying conservatives and charging lawmakers in both parties of being under the grip of K Street lobbyists. When Cruz was asked during an interview with CNN’s Dana Bush if he would apologize, he replied, “And if the Washington lobbyists want to see that happen, they can hold their breath a long, long time. My focus is on the American people and uniting Republicans behind shared values and a shared vision.”
