>> mike: not in my experience. i don't know what the relationship between bob mueller and rudy giuliani. it doesn't make a difference. >> mike: you appointed patrick fitzgerald, what you make of president trumps pardon and you think it was a message to michael : are others? >> james: it's an attack on the rule of law. there's her reason why george w. bush declined to pardon him after deep review of the facts. president trump said justice was done. he commuted his sentence. to now have a president to over 14 years later say he deserves to be pardoned with no reviewer consultation, i cannot think of a sensible reason to do that. whether it's a message i don't know. someone asked me was it a message to me and my wife reminded me that it's not about me. even if it's not a message to anybody it's an attack on the rule of law. it's important that people be prosecutor in the criminal justice system. without that the rule of law melts away. >> mike: what would happen if he issued preemptive pardon? >> james: i don't know.

the senate foreign relations committee needs monday afternoon to vote on mike pompeo to be the next secretary of state. the committee, chaired by senator bob corker. what is the status of support in back committee for the nomination? >> i would say it is close to near certain he does not have support for a favorable recommendation. we have had at least one republican, rand paul, come out against. all democrats with the exception of chris coons. he told me on thursday he is leaning towards voting against mike pompeo, who he voted against for cia director. >> what are rand paul's principal objections so far? said he objected to mike pompeo's military interventionist policies, including his advocacy's for the war in a rock and his advocacy for potential military intervention on iran over its nuclear weapons program during the obama administration. host: you tweeted this about chris coons, saying i am leaning voting against the nomination, final decision yet to be made, foreign relations voting monday evening. give us a sense of why senator cowan and other democrats are opposing his nomination? g

like mike pompeo. and so it wasn't a coincidence when a presidential candidate stood up and said if you elect me i will ban on muslim some entering the united states, he wasn't laughed off the debate stage. he was left off the debate stage because this conspiracy of islamophobia had penetrated the mainstream because of its access to people like the nominee to be the secretary of state. that is disqualifying to me. that is not about mike pompeo's views. it's not about my differences with the policies he is going to espouse as secretary ofs state. that speaks to his qualifications. and so this is one of the most important debates that we're going to have. and these are exceptional times for both of us, republicans and democrats, dede with an initiation that conducts its self very differently than others. but when it comes down to it i don't think that by casting a no vote i'm violating the traditions of this body, which have admittedly given deference to the president in some of these choices. for cabine

kyle turley, mike james. they felt they needed the opioids just to be able to do their job. >> your production is how you get paid. and you can't produce, you know, without playing on the field. >> opioids they were told by doctors were the best way to keep going. >> i got in to pain medicine at a time when we didn't have very good treatments for pain. >> dr. mark wallace is the director of the center for pain medicine at the university of california san diego. he like most of us doctors was taught in medical school to prescribe opioids. >> we were told, well, there's evidence that the use of ownership yates are probably not that risky and that we should use them more liberally. >> they don't wear off. >> it was the 1990s and doctors were seeing a lot of commercials like this one. >> these drugs which i repeat are our best, strongest pain medications should be used much more than they are for patients in pain. >> problem is, while they were fda. >> proved for some kinds of pain they were never intended to be

he told me he is leaning against .ight mike pompeo -- against mike pompeo. >> what are rand paul's principal objections so far? rachel: he objected to mike pompeo's military interventionist policies, his advocacy for the war in iraq and potential military intervention in iran over its nuclear program during the obama administration. >> as you mentioned a moment ago, chris coons leaning against voting for the mike pompeo nomination. give us a sense why senate democrats are proposing his nomination. rachel: democrats have cited, in addition to the director's previous opposition to the iran deal, his past statements equivocating the russian government interference in the 2016 elections, some objectionable comments he made about muslims and their potential complicity in terrorist attacks if they were not condemning them, as well as his stances against gay civil rights. and also the sense that he, a number of senators don't think he will tell president trump things he does not want to hear. there is concern about who will and whethero jump they will speak truth to power. >> do you think the meeti

they are able to were members of congress like mike pompeo into their web. mike pompeo went on these radio shows that allow for his name and office to be associated with their causes. at one point he accepted an award from a group which is the largest anti- muslim group in america. they gave him own reward saying he has been a steadfast ally of ours since the day he was elected to congress. this is the group they classify as a hate group. the founder said practicing muslims cannot be loyal citizens of the united states. the founder of the group they gave mike pompeo an award said practicing muslims cannot be loyal to the united states. they became stronger deeply intertwined because they had allies it wasn't coincidence when it stood up and said i want to ban everyone from the debate stage. this conspiracy have penetrated the mainstream that's disqualifying to me. it's not about mike pompeo's views or policies that speaks to his qualifications. this is one of the most important debates we will have in their exceptional times for all of us. when it comes down

>> mike: there is no reason. i think that the members of the fbi should be held in contempt of congress. this is a serious thing. and nobody can say there is stuff in there they shouldn't see. devin nunes has the highest classification of security because of his position. he can see anything anybody in the entire u.s. government can see for them to pretend it's got to somehow be redacted. it's utter nonsense. they are hiding something and time for us to find out what they're hiding. >> sandra: april 11th is the deadline and then it's subpoena time. >> maria: i think the fbi probably will turn this over. again there is a lot of speculation what's in it. none of us have seen it there is indication there is counter intelligence information there are intercepts. there are intelligent sources and methods in there which i'm sure is part of what is driving the fbi and we all should know why this was started. and get rid of some of the speculation. because, really easy to speculate when none of us have seen it. >> katie:

inside were the remains of mike snyder. >> she had been saying mike was in phoenix and mike this and that and all along mike wasn't in phoenix. >> for mike's family the finality is devastating. >> to not know eight years and hold on to hope and have that pulled out from under you was very difficult for all of us. >> ellen snyder sat in defense attorney penny adrian's office knowing an arrest was imminent. >> they found the body and she wanted to get it over. she said you can't go on like this. >> so adrian informed the police that ellen snyder was ready to turn herself in. >> that following friday, i met with the police detectives at her office, gave a full statement. >> before we ask you questions, i want you to understand these are your mir ran a da and constitutional rights. >> she gave police a 2 1/2 hour confession and her version of events is quite a story. >> woke me up. it was 2:00, 3:00 in the morning. we were arguing. pushing back and forth and i told him, i know all about you and dave simmons. i know that you are gay. >> ellen said she had recently grown more courageous in

this banner here, "good like mike" is from one of his staffers. it goes on from some of his other staffers. this was given to him when the trial was going on. this shows a bit of his personality, the personality of his staff. they were a real team. there are some members of congress that people may not be as excited to work for, but everyone liked working for mike. even when we talk to his staffers now, they say how much they enjoyed it and want to have people remember what mike did. this picture here, these are the people who worked on the case. in the back there, there is alan morrison. he's the one who presented the case to the supreme court. we actually had him come out last year, a couple of years ago, to talk about what happened, the legal strategies that he used. there is mike at the microphone. pepperher people, claude at the tail end of his career. we have some other documents here. there is a press release from the ap. this is actually one of the few cases where the ruling leaked from the supreme court. the court is very tightlipped, usu

the "new york daily news" s says confirm mike pompeo. president trump needs a secretary of state and i would add, madam president, that this country needs a secretary of state. because of international diplomacy needs a secretary of state. because of human rights around the world needs a secretary of state. "usa today" says confirm mike pompeo to fill the void and state. so i will not question the motives of any of my colleagues. my friends whom i respect. i will only say that things are surely different around the united states senate nowadays than they were previously when we rose up almost unanimously and confirm john kerry and hillary clinton, and stood for the proposition that the president of the united states is entitled to his or her teen, and that that person need strong support. i will only say at a moment when our country needs to send a strong message of resolve to our allies, and to the entire international community, we need to send a strong signal of unity that the vote we may take later this week in confirming mike pompeo

--irs mike at the microphone there is mike at the microphone. we have some other documents here. there a press release from the ap. one of the few cases where the ruling leaked from the supreme court. the supreme court is usually tightlipped. steinhauer wins. the court rules that you can't see this power -- cede this power. these are the arguments, the briefs that were presented, the schedule, what mike is going to do. this document here plays up the personality. he's going to appear on tv. if there's any problems -- mike comes down with laryngitis, here's what you should do. some staff don't have the personality that some of these folks do. this is the dick army collection. he's from texas. why is this at the university of oklahoma? he has a phd in economics from the university. we are a very professional archive, we process collections. you give your papers to us, you know we will keep them forever. stateeople from out of might look to us as a place to give their collection. dick army is elected in 1985. he's part of this wave of republicans who wanted to fight back against dem

mike pohl's -- mike pompeo can't be denied. mike is a solid, thoughtful and accomplished leader. it's why 30 national security professional, including former n.s.a. director keith alexander, former c.i.a. director michael hayden submitted a letter endorsing mike's nomination. unfortunately, many democratic senators are opposing mike's nomination and they've given their reasons but i have to say these reasons don't hold up very well under scrutiny. some say mike is adverse to diplomacy. in fact, he simply knows that diplomacy is most effective when it's backed with a credible military threat. as frederick the great said, diplomacy without arms is like music without instruments. but he also knows that some situations may not be susceptible to diplomatic solutions, no matter how much one might wish it so. that's a fact of life. it's not a reason to oppose mike's nomination. and i would add that he recently demonstrated his commitment to diplomacy by meeting with kim jong-un to lay the groundwork for the president's upcoming summit. it's hard to think of a regime worse than north kor

mike: there? 's about how -- there are question marks about how -- you have a british-based bank and do not have any corporate banking within the u.k. how large that investment bank capability should be, i haven't been on the board for two years, it is a question mark. barclays is making progress. it is important to us. it is good to listen to activists. it is better to engage with them and see what they feel. then to assess that your strategy remains valid or not. rick -- mike rake joining us. thank you for being with us both . let's give you a snapshot of the market struggling with the new world of 3%. there is our dubai markets. a two-year low on to buy. -- on the by. you are seeing this rise in yields around the world. the highs yields globally since 2014. bund yields unchanged. there is no doubt that ten-year benchmark, we're just below the 3%. new curves would be 3.18%. let's check on you as features and see where we are right now on that story. u.s. equities closing down. was there concern

mike pompeo is a highly qualified nominee. a distinguished former member of the house of representatives, he served with -- with accomplishment and great dignity and ability as director of the c.i.a. he graduated first in his class from the united states military academy at west point and went on to serve -- to graduate with distinction at the harvard law school to serve as editor in chief of the harvard law review. so this is a man of great intellect, a man of great ability and great accomplishments. without impugning the motives of anyone who would vote no, i simply observe that they will be voting against a highly accomplished and qualified nominee. when the shoe was on the other foot during the obama administration, i along with members -- with the overwhelming, almost unanimous majority of members of my caucus voted yes in favor of the confirmation of hillary clinton to be secretary of state. i voted yes along, again, a virtually unanimous vote on both sides of the aisle for the nomination of our colleague, john kerry, to

mike: sometimes, there is a little bit of turning away. liz: why would they do that? mike: money. they need as many rides as they can get. announcer: so, we hit the streets near schools to see if drivers and kids are paying attention to the policies. male: we are here in san mateo county. announcer: our producer signed up to drive for uber. and when we turn on the app-- male: four minutes. announcer: calls from kids like this one on the peninsula. male: are you over 18? male: i'm not. announcer: and this teen in the south bay. male: are you over 18? female: no. announcer: for many, it's routine. male: you've taken uber before? male: i've taken lots of ubers. male: do you ride uber a lot? female: yeah. male: sorry, guys. announcer: after our producer declined these teens and alerted the company-- male: unaccompanied minor. announcer: we watched another uber pick them up. liz: now getting into another uber. announcer: we got pinged to pick up more than a dozen kids in five counties. and when we turned them down, again and again and again another uber followed. and what about lyft? l

>> mike daly: yeah. >> lapook: carol's memory had been spotty for several years. >> mike daly: i started to notice at home, and i used to joke about it to my kids. i would say, you know, "i think she has alzheimer's, the way she forgets everything." >> lapook: then a doctor told her she really did have alzheimer's. mike's mother had had it. now, his wife. carol, when you heard the word "alzheimer's," what did that do to you? >> carol daly: i was devastated. because i saw his mother, what she went through. it's terrible. she was walking the streets in the middle of the night, and we had to bring her home. >> lapook: as carol's memory deteriorated, she lost her job at a bank, and lost her ability to do a lot of what she'd always done at home. did you used to be a good cook? >> carol daly: yeah. >> mike daly: oh, yeah. >> lapook: what happened? >> carol daly: it stopped. it just-- i just couldn't do it. >> lapook: what couldn't you do? >> carol daly: i didn't know what to do first. the meatloaf. >> mike dal

mike as the resume. he has the character and the record of resolve to make him an exceptionallyr qualified leader for this job. and as we wait here in limbo without the secretary of state, lives are on the line, our nasa security is on the line, our freedom is on the line. i urge my colleagues across the aisle, please, stop putting politics before america's national interest. for heaven's sake, this body past hillary clinton through as secretary of state with 94 votes. i urge them to make the best decision for our country and their constituents back home and join me in confirming mike pompeo as our next secretary of state. thank you, mr. president. i'm glad to be here today to the on to the senate floor to rise, to urge my colleagues to confirm mike pompeo as our next secretary of state.

i will vote for mike pompeo to be the next secretary of state. i want our state department to be functioning as fully and vibrantly and it's gross of lance we can around the world. with that, area urge my colleagues to put partisanship aside and confirm mike pompeo as our next secretary of state. >> i rise to join you and others on the floor hoping that we have moved this week to support the confirmation mike pompeo was nominated to be secretary of state. we had this morning in the joint session importance of our country those who tear their defense of freedom and security to stand up for that. there are threats all over the globe. everybody realized that mike pompeo would have the knowledge she needs to do the job. he has the experience and he has the support of the president you be representing. historically until recently years this body dealt with form policy as if we're sure bipartisanship starts at the waters edge. partisanship and that the waters edge. that was evidenced in the secretary of state's job confirming people to important positi

mike. >> it was not easy but mike pompeo is leading the cia to be the next secretary of state, thf state. let's look at the senate floor. the first procedural vote, we are waiting for the gavel to drop on final passage. ahead of the vote, the senate foreign relations chairman called mike pompeo a star. >> i think it's one of the most outstanding nominees we could have for this position. i did not know him well when the process began. i knew he did a very good job as the director at the central intelligence agency. i have to say, through the process of him going through the confirmation hearings, the conversations we've had, the meetings we've had, i think you will be exemplary. >> mike pompeo finished first in his class at west point. he graduated from harvard law school magnum cum laude. and then he served in congress as a representative through kansas. most recently, he's been the cia director and in the middle of north korea talks. a key liberal photo why she would be voting no. >> there are many reasons, it's pretty straightforward. mike pompeo is completely unfit to serve as america

simply confirm mike pompeo. but despite all this, democrats on the foreign relations committee almost took the unprecedented step of voting him out with an unfavorable recommendation. that attempt to play politics with our nation's security fortunately failed. but even so, according to the senate historian, he became just the second secretary of state nominee in recent memory to clear committee by a margin of only one vote. the only other time that's happened in all the senate's history was also at the hands of senate democrats during the trump administration. and once they got here on the floor they were also the only two secretary of state nominees in history who needed cloture to receive confirmation votes. let me say that again. from the founding of the republic until 2017; the senate's never required cloture to confirm a secretary of state. now we're at two, both in this administration. i guess senate democrats are in a history-making mood. because over the past 15 months they've embarked on a partisan camp

"usa today" said to confirm mike pompeo a secretary of state. i will not question the motives of any of my colleagues. i will only say that things are surely different around the united states senate nowadays than they were previously. when we rose up almost unanimously and confirmed john kerry and hillary clinton and stood with the proposition that a president of the united states is entitled to his or her team and that person is in strong support but i want to say that at a moment when our country needs to send a strong message of resolve to our allies to the entire internationalin community -- we send a strong signal of unity that the vote we make today later this week in confirming mike pompeo might have been a signal of partisanship and division and i regret that. i think this unfortunate narrow vote will come and go and perhaps not even a standard that we operate under in future times. i would only say for those colleagues who are still looking for an answer and still wrestling with how they should vote i would commend to them the example

flynn and served with mike flynn. this was not the mike flynn that they knew. >> at that point, something slipped and he became an enemy of the administration. an enemy of secretary clinton who, by the way, had been extremely supportive of jsoc a their mission. >> he really, really viscerally hated hillary clinton. and he really believed a lot of the conspiracies. >> not long after trump secures the nomination, wikileaks dumps thousands of e-mails. it becomes clear who originately hacked the data. >> u.s. officials say they have come from in russia. >> hacked by russia and published by kick wi lewikileak >> michael flynn will find himself at the center of not only a political hurricane, but an epic national security threat. coming up -- >> mike flynn is potentially one of the key witnesses into the investigation of what happened in the 2016 election. this is the ocean. just listen. (vo) there's so much we want to show her. we needed a car that would last long enough to see it all. (avo) subaru outback. ninety eight pe

gina would be replacing mike pompeo. i heard rumblings that there is acknowledgment of concern about that being potentially a bigger fight than this mike pompeo situation. what are you hearing on the hill? >> reporter: the same thing. she doesn't have the foreknowledge of having been confirmed already once before. mike pompeo was a congressman from kansas. one thing republicans like about pompeo is it is indisputable that he speaks for the president. it is unclear if she has any kind of relationship with president trump. those are republicans' problems. democrats are upset that so much of the record is classified. they know she was tied up in some issues of torture in the early part of the last decade. all of these things are problematic. without a good will coming into this it is going to be thorny. remember, there will be democrat whose are going to want to continue to push back against the president's nominees almost no matter what. and this is a little bit of -- you can make an argument politically a little safer fig

mike pompeo is answering a lot of questions today. how was this concern that the united states is not at the table trying to figure out this problem, but the problem is super complex, lots of different moving parts, how do you see as it stands now at 2:25 p.m.? >> sen. lindsey graham: i think mike pompeo is outstanding choice to be secretary of state. we need to be involved in what happens to syria, not turn over to russians, iranians or turkey. let me say to bob menendez, my friend, i voted for john kerry, understanding how many times i disagreed with him, because i thought he was qualified. bob, mike pompeo was first in his class at west point, an army officer, went to harvard law school, been c.i.a. director, been a member of congress, traveled all over the world with myself and senator mccain, he's an outstanding choice. he has the confidence of the president, the c.i.a. director, he understands the world for what it is. he is not a libertarian, i understand why rand paul does not like him. he is a solid, conservative republican,

key vote on mike pompeo moments away. also want to point out the dow was down 150 points earlier, ended off the lows, down 14 points. google parent alphabet reported better-than-expected numbers but the stock was only up a fraction. we will be talking about all of this tomorrow. special interview tomorrow with kentucky republican senator rand paul. he has vowing to block mike pompeo's nomination. he will join me tomorrow on fox business network. have a great night, everybody. here is "the five" ." >> jesse: i am jesse watters with kimberly guilfoyle, juan williams, katie pavlich, and greg gutfeld. it's 5:00 in new york city, this is "the five" ." you are looking live at capitol hill where we are awaiting a senate foreign relations committee vote on the nomination of mike pompeo for secretary of state. no democrat on the panel supports his nomination. neither does republican rand paul, meaning pompeo won't have enough support for a favorable recommendation. but majority leader mitch mcconnell still intends to hold a full c

i'll hand toyota you, mike. mike: thanks. good morning, everyone. the bible and shakespeare are important assets to any attorney, as clarence darrow advised once, and i'm very fond of one part of the good book and, i think it's proverbs 11:14, where there's no counsel, the people fail. but in an abundance of counselors there's safetism i'm feeling very safe today as i look around the room, j.c. the challenge of any attorney general is i think fundamentally to keep the people of your state safe. frequently that means keeping them safe from, as leslie said, criminals and scam artists. -- ofallenge of attorneys attorneys general for the last seven or eight years has been to keep people safe from an overreaching, predatory national government through the executive branch. one of the challenges we're beginning to see, and it's really in many ways a subset of what attorneys general were trying to combat for the eight years barack obama was president, and that is the po litization of the exercise of -- the plitcyization of the exercise of executive power.

we all know mike's resume -- graduate of the u.s. military academy and harvard law school, served as a u.s. army officer on the house intelligence committee and as director of the c.i.a. in my view, mike pompeo is unoaaniquely qualified -- uniquely qualified. i can't imagine -- it's hard to imagine a better choice for secretary of state than mike pompeo. now, one final matter. we've been talking all week about a big philosophical difference between democrats and republicans. tax reform has thrown it into stark relief. on the one hand, the democrats' governing philosophy is about consolidating as much money and power as possible right here in washington, d.c. under president obama, we watched democratic leaders turn every challenge the country faced into an excuse to raise taxes and impose regulations. our dear friends on the other side are the party of taxation, regulation, and litigation as well. we saw who wins under this top-down philosophy and who loses. america did not recover quickly enough from the great recession. and the uni

we know mike pompeo is up to the task. after all, we confirmed him with a be comfortable and bipartisan majority to lead the c.i.a. in one of the most sensitive positions in our government, the quality of his leadership was directly linked to the security of the american people. west point valedictorian, harvard law, u.s. army officer, a successful businessman, three-term congressman, serving on the house intelligence committee. this is the resume that mike pompeo brought to the top job at the c.i.a. with the support of a bipartisan supermajority of the senate and by all accounts his tenure there has been a big success. the caliber of mike's leadership and the quality of his counsel have won him the respect of our national clandestine service and the confidence of the president. just recently director pompeo undertook sensitive conversations with directives of north korea to lay the groundwork for efforts aimed at denuclearizing the korean peninsula. as he steps into this new mission as secretary of state, he clearly enjoy

what will mike do now? >> so mike, answer the question. what do you do now >> actually, there isn't much we can do this has gone against us badly enough, that if you try to cover this trade you may salvage 41 cents. there is some chance that the stock rebounds and i'm not selling that chance just as cheaply. >>> dan made a bearish call on the banks last week. how are you managing this trade? >> i think it was $71.30 today it's like $26.45 they lost half their value here. we have money senators and now we'll have investment banks next week i think if you stick with this trade, you'll get out of this thing at least for flat. >>> coming up next, final call from the options pits. e reporti. and, how's it looking? >>i don't know. there's so many opinions out there, it's hard to make sense of it all. well, victor, do you have something for him? >>check this out. td ameritrade aggregates thousands of earnings estimates into a single data point. that way you can keep your eyes on the big picture. >>huh. feel better? >>much better. yeah, me too. wo

>> coach mike: at least five. >> anthony: wow. >> anthony: coach mike anderson is second in command. coal in anybody else's family? yeah? >> cole: like trash man, that's a real common job in my family. >> coach larry: don't feel bad. trash men make more money than teachers do, chavez. >> anthony: fred "fat back" minco, micah "woogie" mclaughlin, and cole "chavo" anderson are in many ways typical mountain view players and students with the hopes and dreams of, well, any other high school students. homecoming. >> coach larry: it is. >> anthony: how big a deal is football in general, and this game, and what you guys do? >> coach: you know, a lot of these kids understand that there are not a lot of resources here. before you can kind of feel the dreariness that kind of lingered around the community. but now, you know, with these boys winning, the work ethic they're putting in, you could feel the support. you know, like, we did a few community outreach programs this summer. we went down to the park and they painted, and they feel it, they feel that sense of pride. >> anthony: how has this

national security and economics as well. >> when it comes to mike pompeo you had not been called him possibly the most significant candidate in years past. >> he has a chance to be a transformative secretary of state. he has complete confidence of the president this is a man that if you know him is a strategic thinker, he has an impressive background and graduated first in his class was a successful businessman and served three terms in congress and the house of representatives he served on the intelligence committee has a great grasp of has strong convictions but knows the president is the one calling the shots. they've developed a terrific relationship the cia director. they spent time together in the briefings and the president entrusted him with a secret trip to pyongyang. having watched him closely i have a sense he has a three-dimensional sense of management. he knows how to work and has great relations in the house, someone who thinks not just about military issues as a west point graduate but also someone who thinks about strategy in a broader sense and what the united states

that's exactly what mike tried to do with his bullish bet on square after nearly a 200% run, mike thought square still looked pretty good. that's when things got ugly. [ music playing >> that's right, mellissa. let me tell you how it all went down, i like square. to make a different bullish bet, i decided to sell the april 55 put for $3.30 n. this equation, if square stayed above 55, i'd get to keep all that money, i'd even see profits if the stock fell slightly below that strike, as long as it stayed above 5170 by april expieration this is how things get complicated. i could be forced to buy a put even if the stock falls to zero. so to limit my rick, i then bought the april 50 put for $1.30 and created my bull put spread i thought it would put the odds in my favor, here's why. between the 330 i collected by the high strike put, i'm still able take in 2 bucks on the trade in this scenario, $2 is the most i can make, even if square falls below $55, i won't see losses until it falls below that higher strike price by more than the $2 i put in or below $53, below that level losses do kick in,

so why would you vote against mike pompeo? >> well, joe, i think, like all of my democratic colleagues on the committee my vote was mostly driven by things mike pompeo said and did as a candidate for congress and as a congressman. in his conduct in the benghazi hearings, in statements he's made about regime change and in belligerent past statements he's made and in particular some statements he made about muslim americans and the lgbt community. i agree with a number of the things you said, joe, that a secretary of state has to speak for the president, should be someone who advocates for the career professionals in the state department and should be in the room with the president able to advocate for diplomacy. those are things rex tillerson because of the bad chemistry he had with the president and his lack of connection to the state department wasn't successful at. at the end of the day, my core concern was about whether or not mike pompeo will advocate for rule of law, human rights, for democracy for our core values or will

mike pompeo isn't. he'll defer to the president's judgment. he does have this close relationship with the president where he can be frank with the president. where they speak regularly. he's not the kind of person who i think is going to get caught off guard by these kinds of decisions. we'll waiting on the russia sanctions announcement. in the end i think nikki haley will be proved right, what she said. it's a matter of timing. he knows how to deal with the president well. he understands what motivates the president. he has seen him up close. if anybody can handle what might be tactical moves where the president may seem to depart from policies, but he really doesn't, it's pompeo. >> ken weinstein who is the president and ceo of the hudson institute, thanks for your time. >> thank you. >>> the administrator for the u.s. agency for international develop mark green is set to testify this afternoon on the agency's fiscal year 2019 budget request
