To Vice President biden and chief of staff former Vice President al gore. Not surprisingly the appointment is being slammed by republicans. Take a look at what texas senator ted cruz had to say about this over the weekend. Mr. Klain is not a doctor, hes not a health care professional. We should be less concerned about giving the public the feeling that the government is on top of this and more concerned about the government actually being on top of it. This is a manifestation. We dont need another white house political operative, which is what mr. Klain has been. What we need is president ial leadership. The person who needs to be on top of this is the president of the United States standing up and leading and treating it as a Public Health emergency. Foxs own ed henry is standing by tonight. Hes at the white house. He has the latest on how the administration is responding to the criticism. You know, ed, i guess the main question is we have some of the best most renowned doctors, peopl
To hash this out. Im told behind closed doors the president made the calculation republican also attack him if he waits a month. Lets do it now. Go on offense and define the terms of this debate. He will try to justify this move tonight by saying republicans failed to act on the last four years. What he will not mention tonight is democrats failed to act when they had control of the house, senate, and white house in 2009, 2010. And by the way, even before this speech has been given, two senate democrats, not one but two donley of indiana and manchin of West Virginia come out and said its a mistake and end run around congress. Bill . The president ial will go it las vegas tomorrow. Thats where he will sign the executive action, i understand. You will be with him, correct . No. Im going to stay here and anchoring special report, filling in for bret baier, i think the bottom line is he is going do that because is he going to sell it they know its a tough policy so here is he. Here is the
So does he . Senator tim scott joins us. Good evening, sir. Good evening, greta. Good to be back with you. Nice to have you back and congratulations is in order. First time i have seen you since you won your election, sir. So condition graduate legs. Thank you very much. Its good to be on this side of an election so we can give back to the peoples business as so very important to all of us that live in america around around the world frankly. All right. You have just heard Condoleezza Rice and she talks about the importance of leading. Is the u. S. Leading . So far we have been leading from behind, which is not leadership from my perspective. If were really leading, then what you see coming from the white house, from the administration is a longterm strategy that starts at the victory line and works our way back to where we are. Not last and continuing resolution 500 million and now we are looking for 5. 6 billion. Its like having a blank check with no strategy. The first thing we need
Day. Another adventurer asked the folks about it. He came over on three ships. Mayflower maybe . Caution. You are about to enter the nospin zone. Factor begins right now. Hi, im bill oreilly. Thanks for watching us tonight. Why the federal government is not protecting america. Thats the subject of this evenings talking points memo. Americans are rightly concerned that their government is not protecting them against the contagious disease. 27yearold nina pham that treated Thomas Duncan who died from ebola last week has now been diagnosed with the disease. Even though she was apparently wearing protective gear. Very worrisome. A new poll of nbc news asks, should there be a ban on flights from west african countries into the usa . 58 say, yes. 20 , no. Dont know and no answer, 22 . Talking points has said from the beginning theres no compelling reason why west africans should be admitted to the usa when there is an ebola epidemic raging in that region. Think about it. Think about this. Th
Duncan. Because of that trip fellow passengers are now being contacted and a number of schools have shut down in both ohio and texas out of fears that students, parents and faculty members may have in fact come in contact with vinson. Now, also tonight airports are ramping up screenings including Dulles International outside of d. C. And thats where we find tonight foxs own Shannon Breen with the very latest. Shannon. Sean, four additional airports did start those beefed up screenings today including here at Dulles International airport outside of washington. The Administration Says the heightened screenings are proof that it is keeping up with things and adapting and changing as we learn more about the ebola threat. The improved or strengthened screening measures are indicative of our commitment to constantly evaluating our policies and where possible putting in place measures that would strengthen them. The screenings have already been taking place at jfk. Passengers are met by custo
