Page 5 - Tee Up News Today

Nominee. theres something else i want to focus on here. i asked mitch mcconnell yesterday after the lunch and after the ruling on the travel ban case. i said do you feel vindicated in the fact that you blocked merrick garland from sitting on the court, muscle neil gorsuch on and then could have been a 5-4 decision and could have been 5-4 the other direction. he said im glad we have a court tilting to the right. this will take the court another direction. democrats have always failed to energize ...

Its important that the rank and file, the great men and women that compose our intelligence services and the fbi continue to tee up, serve up the truth to power whether the power listens to truth or not. that places a huge burden, i think, on the leaders to ensure they continue to do that. thats going to be a real test, i think, of the resilience of our institutions, which are kind of under stress right now. >> as part of the counter intelligence investigation into what russia was doing, its now...

Handling that investigation while enduring those attacks? >> well, i think the first point id make is today theres, i think, a special burden placed on the leaders of these organizations. dan coates is dni. now gina haspel is director of cia and director christopher wray, to provide to the top cover, so that their organizations can function in as nonpolitical an environment as possible, and that is a tall order these days. this is a burden that i dont think any of the predecessors -- certainly i...

Would already be investigating, a pro forma request that presidents use to show they are involved and engaged in a situation. one of the dangers i think that happens with president trump is we get so used to him doing things that are outrageous and that are over the line and harmful to institutions, that when the really, real dangerous ones happen, people shrug their shoulders are and used to it and what he did in this tweet today, if he follows through that tomorrow, crossing a dangerous red li...

This, then youll have some real action on the legislative front. >> neil: more regulation as well. charlie gasparino, thanks very much. seems neal leaving charlie gasparino to talk about god and religion. had to talk about the appeal of faith-based films. gasparino was our tee up for that after this.

In the past, presidents have wanted to, as you say, moderate or put some distance there. so again this president is doing -- this is a first. this is a first for a president is to beam in live via satellite to address the crowd. you are hearing the organizers of the event too talking about the rose garden event and people are applauding now. this is mentioned over on the national mall. i believe this is a tee up for the president as a hear the speaker on the mall introducing this. andrea, im goi...

Robocall or this support or what is going on in trying to get out the vote for doug jones is going to move it very much. if you look very carefully at what senator shelby said earlier today, he didnt just say alabama could do better or needed better, he said alabama needed a a better republican, which sort of sets the stage of sort of a wink and a nod for people who might still want to vote for roy moore. >> in fact, thats a great tee-up. thank you so much, sharon. you should be on this side of ...

Fumble through that. i worry about the briefing points and a grasp on the health care bill. im not sure hes paying attention as he ought to be. >> just so we get it in, the white house has pushed back. they say that president trump does take these cyber attacks seriously. they say they are acting, albeit, acting more quietly than out in the public. thank you for the tee up. we will need to talk about the twee tweets about tv hosts. im going to spare this panel from having to do that. thank you, ...
