Happens to look the part, sure. but he wants an all-star cabinet and they have healthy debates and the president makes a decision, good for him. one of the question marks, and whats interesting because we heard congressman pompeo said, i talked to the president-elect. i would not have taken this job if i couldnt tell him the unvarnished truth. what we havent heard and the nominee for state rex tillerson said he has not talked about these things since taking the job with the president-elect. the ...

Leaders? >> kind of so -- im actually surprised and glad about a lot of the things i heard today. but it makes me wonder if donald trump knew the extent of the positions of the folks he put up there. donald trump during a republican debate, he defended torture and advocated for going farther than waterboarding. you have mike pompeo saying under no circumstances would i allow that to happen. so i am optimistic. i definitely think, though, from general mattis all the way down to pompeo and general...

Id like your response on that. obviously, part of this involves minimization. there are other issues, 12-333 and id also like in writing what limits you would have on your meta data proposal since you are advocating it applied to personal lifestyle information. thank you, mr. chairman. >> it was the hope of the chair that we would allow the congressman an hour in between this and the closed session. were down to 30 minutes. im going to recognize sarenato harris for a very brief question and if t...

Is a guarantee that when presented with that evidence, you are willing to then take a position that defers to the weight of that evidence, even if it requires you to change a previously held position that may have been politically helpful to you or a position that you have taken during your tenure in elected office. >> senator, you have my commitment to that. im an engineer by training. facts and data matter, and you have my assurance if im confirmed in my role as cia director, i will look at th...
