facebook.com/sean hannity. that's all the time we have left. we will be back tomorrow night. thanks for being with us. have a great night. ♪ >> martha: breaking tonight, you are looking live at the u.s. senate. lawmakers are in the middle of a debate on congressman mike pompeo to be the next director for the cia. good evening, everybody, from our brand-new studio tonight, i'm martha maccallum. it is day four of the first 100. even before his top cabinet picks are in place, president trump diving into his first full day at the white house. using executive authority and the bully pulpit to launch some of his signature campaign promises with a special focus on creating jobs. first, he signed three executive orders this morning, including one formally withdrawing the u.s. for my controversial proposed trade other nations, you know that one as tpp. the president following that one

with meetings with some of the country's biggest business and labor leaders, and two separate meetings. then, he sat down with a bipartisan leadership from congress, and then, paul ryan. here's what that looks like. ♪ >> a great thing for the american worker, what we just did. what we are doing this we are going to be cutting taxes massively for both the middle class and four companies. we just officially terminated tpp. we are going to put a lot of people back to work. we are going to stop the ridiculous stuff. >> i know that josh earnest was voted the most popular press secretary by the press corps, i shot josh an email last night letting them know he can rest easy that his title is secure for at least the next few days. >> martha: huge lineup tonight, including newt gingrich, a close advisor to president trump. plus, the first appearance of our newest contributor, marie hard. but let's begin tonight and kick

things off with bill bennett, also, fox news contributor and former secretary of education. good to have you with us tonight. >> hi, martha. great to see you, sir. you watched that, you saw how busy that was. what do you think of the first, day one that he called up the trump administration? >> it really is day one. for those of us that try to take weekends off, monday is the first workday, let's face it. he had a great day. it was a terrific day. a presidential day. i've heard a lot of people commenting on fox and elsewhere, they are right. saturday was not such a good day with spicer and all. today was a much better day for the president. but it was more important than that. there has been a question in the air whether donald trump can be presidential. gee, he tweets, he talks about his hands, he talks about his hair, he worries about arnold schwarzenegger. this was a presidential day. and only a certain kind of president could have pulled this off, meeting with the business leaders, then, meeting with the union leaders.

i predict, by the way, martha, he is going to steal a lot of union members come as he did in the election. he will steal even more, get even more. he will get some of these union leaders, as he got their price today. did you know that i think that all of those union leaders voted for hillary clinton? all of those unions that supported hillary clinton? >> martha: it is shocking to see a republican president sitting there on day one at the white house surrounded by union leaders, listening to their grievances, hearing their thoughts. as you pointed out, he managed to pull a number of them over to his side. have they put to rest the sort of rocky start that was so much discussed over the weekend? the cia briefing, there is mixed opinions. i went back and listen to it again. the first 10 minutes, the first 9 minutes, i would say, they were very straightforward. he seemed to be getting a good response from that crowd. he doesn't tend to go on a few minutes too long and get into territory that that becomes the focus and that's all you hear about in the press.

so, what do you think? >> are we listening to the club? >> martha: what did you think about what he did the cia? >> i thought he did fine. even though he digressed and talked about the crowd size and all of that, he still got a great and hearty welcome. when he talked about the press, it was still a hearty welcome. he was off point. i hope to be with you guys for a long time and i'm a trump supporter, but when they make a mistake, i will say so. it was a mistake to fixate on that. it was a mistake for sean to be so angry and fixate on the crap. i think it was really, very, very impressive. the president needs to focus on presidential things. that is what he did today. the mexico city accord, on abortion, people wondered during the campaign whether he was serious about that, he is serious about that. tpp, that's gone. was he serious about that? he is serious about it. >> martha: let me jump in on that, bill.

he is going to have that she is going to run and some problems of the republicans on that, who are very big free-trade opponents and to think that scrapping that thing is mistake. >> yes, he will. he will run into problems of the republicans that he will certainly run into problems with democrats. the problems don't bother him. "the art of the deal." he starts with recognizing their problems and he will meet people at a certain distance. but what this showed today, again, i want to go back to the point, for all of of those who said, is this guy just -- how did we do this, is this just amateur hour, this was a very presidential day. if you looked at those meetings and listen to him at those meetings, he was, in a word, presidential. dignified. he was on target. if we keep this pace up, the press is not going to have time to nitpick because these were big things he was talking about today. >> martha: he is still working. he is meeting with paul ryan right now after a big long meeting with the bipartisan

leaders. he is still as it and so are we. bill, thank you very much. good to see you tonight. >> and those two are getting closer. that is very important. respect and affection between posterior comarketing greater, that is good. >> martha: thanks, bill. are you satisfied for much you have seen at home? is there something that you wish that he did for us that he didn't did into? send me a tweet using #first100 and we will share some of those at the end of the show. stick around for that. breaking right now, the senate has just begun to vote on whether to approve the president's new cia director, and we just learned why tempers are running so high over this. congressman pete hoaxster and former states -- and the breaking news as well. plus, two days after blasting the media for its coverage of the inauguration, white house press secretary sean spicer walks back into the room today to face those reporters. so, how did it go? former speaker newt gingrich on

the fallout when we come back. >> when we are right, we are right. when we are wrong, we are wrong. but it is not always wrong and negative.

♪

speed when developing tonight, the further first time since blasting the media over covering the president's inauguration, sean spicer went back into that room that was a bit uncomfortable over the weekend. he faced reporters in his very first real briefing, as white house press secretary. take a look at how he did. >> we had a tweet go out about martin luther king. think about how racially charged that is. someone rushes out and says to the entire press corps that the president of the united states has removed the boss from his office. -- busk. where was the apology to the president of united states? where was the apology to millions of people who read that and thought, how racially insensitive that was. >> this was the largest audience to ever wideness in inauguration. max, both in person and around the globe. >> rights.

to witness and around the globe. right. total audience, it was. >> but not simply in person. >> that is right. again, i didn't say in person. it is about a constant theme. it's about sitting here every time and being told, no. we don't think he can do that. he will never accomplish that. he can't win that. it won't be the biggest, it is not going to be that good, the crowds on that bed, he is not that successful. the narrative is always negative. and it is demoralizing. sometimes, we will make mistakes. i promise you that. it it does not always have to be negative, jim. when we are right, say we are right. when we are wrong, say we are wrong. >> martha: in just a moment, we will talk to former house speaker newt gingrich. first, we go to chief white house correspondent josh roberts, who was inside a very crowded briefing room today. >> it was a very crowded briefing room. i haven't seen it that crowded

since back in the early 2000s when the country was going through one of its darkest days. everybody who was around wanted to be inside that briefing room to talk to ari fleischer. sean spicer's demeanor today, boy, different than it was on saturday. i was in the briefing room on saturday when he got out and i thought he was channeling rhonda zigler from the nixon era when he tore the strap off the media, as wide as an iowa cornfield. i remember back in the days of the clinton administration when joe lockhart would get up there and he would get so mad that his eyes would bug out and you could see the blood rising in his face. i thought for a moment that sean spicer was channeling both of those folks. today, much different. even told a joke when he came up to the podium. he seemed far more recent in his arguments against the press than he had previously. you know it is interesting, too, martha, we had three big executive orders from the president on taking the united states out of tpp,

reinstating the mexico city policy, hiring freeze, we also hear that they are going to be executive orders coming down the pike and the next few days which will take both the keystone of the dakota access pipelines out of mothballs and put those back on the table. we will be renegotiating nafta. a lot of the briefing today was stated on who said what about win, when we were talking about crowd size. that doesn't have too much of an impact at all on the american public. it is simply a point that can be argued back and forth. what is also interesting, too, traditionally, when it comes to the briefing, the press secretary might call on "the associated press" first are on reuters or one of the big five networks, he went to some folks of mudroom that we would not normally go to. he had them written down in the list, went to "the new york post" first, the christian broadcast network. really trying to shake things up, i think. giving an indication, martha, that the status quo is not going to be the way that this white has proceeds. >> martha: really fascinating.

john, thank you very much. john roberts at the white house. good to see you tonight. our next guest said that when it comes to white house press briefings come out right be time to adopt some traditional practices. the speaker of the house and the author of the novel "treason." good to have you with us. it is fascinating watching all of that play out. to john roberts early point in there, one of the reasons that so much time was spent at the beginning of the briefing on the crowd size issue was because sean spicer had come out with that statement over the weekend that put data squarely in the forefront and a sort of a force that issue into a back-and-forth that perhaps, the administration could have avoided if they had just let it lie. what do you think? >> i think that the absurdity of the elite media fixating one channel apparently ran parallel pictures of the obama crowd and the trump crowd.

newspapers used pictures that were inaccurate. i think john roberts' bigger point, the big reason i would like to see them dramatically overhaul the entire operation of the press corps, the small, and says he was a group of people who are very, very important who talk to each other, nobody else, they come up and decide, they are a really big issue. i mean, deciding to pull out of tpp was a really big issue. deciding to reinstate an even more aggressive mexico city policy on right to life and stopping abortion. a really big issue. having a hiring freeze is a really big issue. but the press corps is so focused on their own belly buttons that it is very hard for them to deal with what the country cares about and to get to the big issues. i suggested they go to a much bigger room and at least one fourth of the people allowed in the room be citizens and actually, don't presume that some professional voyeur paid to do nothing all day except watch the white house is the only

person who can ask an intelligent question. >> martha: that is a fascinating point to bring out. that room is packed in there today. it may be that they want to make it as stuffy and uncomfortable as possible in that room, so, the reporters say, please, let's move across the street to the conference center and do this. i think it was interesting that he called first on "the new york post" and christian broadcasting and fox got a question. there was a lot of backlash about that immediately on twitter. look what they are calling on first. but when you look at how tough it was during the obama years for fox to get a question and for such a long time, they are trying to mix it up a little better. >> if a newspaper or a tv channel -- i mean, i watch and interaction on sunday between nbc and somebody from the white house. it was so hostile and so negative that it was just

unbelievable. you don't have an obligation to go back and pretend these are nice people. you don't have an obligation to say, you have to beat me up, lie about me, this whole thing about the martin luther king junior bosque is a really big deal. at a time when we have racial tension, when we have very real concerns, anything sent out by the pool reporter and repeated by some 3000 different people by the time they realize there was a lie. it simply wasn't true. there are good reasons. i thought sean did a great job today. he ate exactly the right tone. he is a very professional person. he did a great job with the republican national committee. i think he is going to do a tremendous job in this role. you go back and look at kellyanne conway on "meet the press," you realize, what she was doing was totally unacceptable for nbc to act as hostile and arrogant as they did. there's no reason to call on nbc

for three weeks. you have earned is not calling on you. we will call on 16 other people because at least they are not nasty. >> martha: a crowdedof people wk questions. it does look like things are shaking up and is fascinating to watch. speaker gingrich, thank you very much. great to see you tonight. so, big news breaking tonight, after hours of intense debate on the senate floor, the senate just moments ago confirmed the president's pick for cia director. pete hoekstra and marie harf coming up on that. plus, big news on president trump's plan for the supreme court. judge andrew napolitano on that straight ahead. ♪ my business was built with passion... but i keep it growing by making every dollar count. that's why i have the spark cash card from capital one. with it, i earn unlimited 2% cash back on all of my purchasing. and that unlimited 2% cash back from spark means

thousands of dollars each year going back into my business... which adds fuel to my bottom line. what's in your wallet?

>> martha: breaking moments ago, after weeks of fighting between the trump administration and the intel community, the president's pick to lead the cia was just confirmed moments ago. the vote confirming representative mike pompeo to be the new cia director came after he was initially denied and delayed by senate democrats on friday, which angered the administration. ed henry with the latest on capitol hill tonight. good to see you. >> martha, great to see you.

it is interesting, this is someone, mike pompeo, his credentials have never been in question. he was somebody he was first in his class at west point. then, after serving, the army graduated from law school. he has been serving on the house intelligence committee. what is fascinating, there was a behind-the-scenes struggle before pompeo was confirmed tonight, that led republicans to charge of the senate democrats leader, chuck schumer lied to them. when president trump made the cia his first visit to a federal agency on saturday in order to demonstrate that he is trying to mend fences with the intelligence community, he lashed out at a schumer over the fact that pompeo was still in limbo over the weekend. it turned out there was a major behind-the-scenes struggle because it schumer had promised republicans that pompeo, as a key member of the national security team, would get a floor vote on his confirmation on inauguration day, not today, but way back on friday. then, the day before the inaugural, democrat ron whited

started making noise about delaying the floor vote. tom tom cotton sprung into actin and demanded that schumer keep his word. after donald trump was a sworn end, he got into more space on the senate floor and demanded an explanation. schumer told the republican to lower his voice and to take this conversation off the senate floor. he said that if cotton had been around eight years ago, he would have known that they did not confirm president obama's cia director on day one, either. that did not sit well with tom cotton, an army veteran, who told schumer, "eight years ago, i was getting my ass shot out in afghanistan, so, don't talk to me about where i was eight years ago." he claimed he was only speaking for himself when he made us deal with republicans to have to the vote on the inaugural, but it was pretty interesting that he was just income it was me saying it. i couldn't get my fellow

democrats to go along with his s book. it suggests that's that schumey have some trouble keeping his caucus in control and that this whole relations may be very strained, martha. >> martha: good color and great background. thank you very much, ed. now with more, let's bring and the former house committee chairman and marie harf, former spokesperson for the cia and the state. today, making her debut as a fox news contributor. welcome, marie. great to have you with us tonight. you listened to that back and forth, marie. i'm sure it takes you back in some ways. why would mike pompeo, given his credentials, be held up at all? >> it is great to be with you and happy to be here starting out on your show. i think that 72 hours is not an unreasonable amount of time to allow some senators do have some more debate. in the previous administration that i was a part of, we had hundreds of days that nominees had to wait for the first secretary of defense and history

filibustered. it is a little rich to hear republicans are planning about -- complaining about how long he had to wait. 72 hours. we will see what kind of cia director he is starting tomorrow. >> pete hoekstra. >> i think the bottom line is, the senate needs to change. president obama had seven nominees approved by the first, by inaugural day. and donald trump has had two. i think with the senate now needs to do and what the american people are going to demand of the senate, the executive branch is changing. the house it has changed but the senate is going to have to become more responsive. i am looking forward to the day were donald trump starts tweeting out and tweeting to the senate, why are the senators not here on the weekend, proving my cabinet picks, passing tax reform, and doing a number of different things that need to get done to help make america great again. he is going to put a tremendous amount of pressure on the senate, so, the government will work for the american people

once again. >> martha: a great point. what we have seen already, president trump works straight through the weekend. he is still working right now. it's about 7:30 p.m. mr. hoekstra, you made a very strong charge against john brennan. you say he was a political cia director and you believe that mike pompeo can wipe that slate clean. tell me about that. >> i really expect that mike pompeo, he has had in his confirmation hearings, i am going to focus on providing the best intelligence, the best information that i can to the policymakers of this country, so, they will be informed to make good policy decisions. i have met and worked with john brennan. personally, it has never been much of a pleasant experience. this is the guy that released, or put in place, the trump file, the trump-russian file and attached it to a daily brief and somehow, that got public. that should have never been there. john brennan, i think this is

why you saw the strong response and the positive response i donald trump got on saturday from rank and file cia members. if they want to get focus back n delivering intelligence and get this agency out of politics. they sought under john brennan. they are hopeful. i think they are confident that they are not going to see it under mike pompeo. they want to do their jobs and get out of politics. >> martha: we remember them because a videotape that was given as a reason for the uprising there. we remember intelligence officers, marie, who wanted to put a more forceful foot forward on the progress that iss was making and their concerns about that, who were told to tone it down. what about the charge that the obama cia was politicized? >> well, martha, that report about intelligence officers wasn't about the cia. i think it was about the defense intelligence analysts. >> martha: another branch of the intelligence agency. >> when it comes to cia, look,

john brennan was a career cia officer. i served the cia under george w. bush and barack obama. i did not see either time, under administration when i was there, intelligence being politicized politicized. we have seen what happens, we see how bad it is for the country. it will be interesting to see what mike pompeo is my like uso cia director. will it be the mike pompeo that was on the intel community com? or what we see the mike pompeo who was on the benghazi committee? who was very outspoken about the iran deal, for example, which the intelligence community had quite a bit of information on. will he stick out for the cia officers when it isn't political convenient? it remains to be seen. >> martha: we will leave it there. pete hoekstra, great to see you. marie harf, welcome. great to have you heard of. also, president trump has a

front runner and mind to replace antonin scalia on the supreme court. judge

♪ >> martha: president trump has an ambitions plan for the first 100 days. one of the biggest and most impactful announcements will be his choice to fill the supreme court vacancy. now, "cbs news" reporting that denver federal appeals court judge neil gorsuch is the leading candidate. so, who is he? a trace gallagher looking into this for us on a rest coast newsroom. good evening, trace. >> when it comes to his interpretation, he certainly fits the conservative archetype. gorsuch considers himself an originalist, beating, he believes we should abide by the constitution as it was originally written, not as a living document to be adjusted along with political views. and a 2016 study of 15 potential supreme court nominees, neil gorsuch ranked second in terms

of scalia-ness, mainly because judges gorsuch thinks criminal law should be clear and interpreted in favor of defendants, even if that hurts the government's prosecution rate. like justice scalia, judges gorsuch -- during the 2014 hobby lobby case, gorsuch agreed that obamacare could not force corporations to provide their employees with health insurance that covers abortion. for now, gorsuch sits on the tenth u.s. court of appeals, where he was appointed by george w. bush. he is a graduate of harvard law, was a marshall scholar at oxford, and clerk for supreme court justices byron white and anthony kennedy. in the 2000 election, he also participated and lawyers for bush-cheney. at 49 years old, experts say gorsuch as prime for his own extended run on the supreme court. while neil gorsuch is being

bandied around as a top choice, others, such as 11th search a comic circuit court of appeals, william pryor, seventh circuit court judge, and joan larson are also getting their fair share of attention. the trump administration will say only that a selection could come in the next couple of weeks. martha. >> martha: busy times. here now is andrew napolitano. you have met with president trump to discuss this pick. what do you think about neil gorsuch? >> well, judge gorsuch is very high on the president flows. the president, when he was a candidate, released two lists, which totaled 21 people. they didn't exactly rank them. in this interesting test about scalianess, a word that the late justice scalia would roar about. george gorsuch finished very high. he is basically a traditionalist and his views on things like

right to life and guns, which is very important to the president. he is an originalist, meaning, he believes that the meaning of the constitution was fixed at the time it was ratified and was changed only at the times that was amended. it is not to be changed by the public's view of it or, as justice ginsburg has argued, a living document to meet the political needs of the time. when you quantify all those many, many opinions, he has been an appeals court judge for ten years. you rank them, judges gorsuch ranks very high. >> martha: religious liberty also appears to be very important to him, which could go a long way with the evangelist community that was very positive. >> if president trump nominates judges gorsuch, he will be producing exactly what he said he would be producing. a younger version of antonin scalia. >> martha: i want to ask you another question about aca, the affordable care act, at the move that president trump made on

friday, because you put a very fine point on how revolutionary you believe the wording was, because a lot of people were saying, what did he mean by that, to make it easier, to ease the burden. explain. speak of the affordable care act gives a lot discretion to the secretaries in the president's cabinet who will enforce it, the attorney general, secretary of the treasury terry , they pass the discussion onto the thousands of people that work for them. president trump, and disorder, the first order that he signed, he had only been president for four hours, he said, i don't want you taxing anybody, i don't want you finding anybody, i don't want you making life difficult for anybody. i believe that this law won't exist much longer. if you have h -- this is the truly revolutionary part -- if you can exercise your discretion, i want your discretion to be exercised in favor of the individual and against the government. martha, thomas paine would be happy in an argument like that.

i have never, ever seen a president or governor say that people in forcing his or her laws go against the government and in favor of the individuals. truly revolutionary and again, exactly what donald trump that he would do. >> martha: common sense, we'll call that. >> yes. revolutionary common sense. >> martha: good to see you, sir. coming up tonight, knew reaction from one of the obamacare architects to what some are calling a bomb that was thrown by the trump administration right into the middle of that after ezekiel emanuel, straight ahead. we will show you what happens with a trump supporter sits down next to a woman who does not like the president one pet. the microsoft cloud helps us stay connected. the microsoft cloud offers infinite scalability. the microsoft cloud helps our customers get up and running, anywhere in the planet. wherever there's a phone, you've got a bank, and we could never do that before.

>> martha: breaking tonight, brent's new reaction on day four if the presidency to what he did on day one, when he shot an arrow through the heart of president obama's beloved affordable care act. today, everybody trying to figure out what that move means exactly. here is "the washington post" declaring, "the executive order tosses a bomb into fragile health insurance markets." today, white house press secretary sean spicer strongly disagrees.

he said the mandate that will stay as is the one that delives what was originally promised to americans. >> do you believe that you have the mandate to be able to force it through what you had talked about replacing obamacare? >> i think what we have is a mandate to make health care more accessible and lower cost. that is what the american people were promised under obamacare. it is not a question about a mandate in itself, it is also not about forcing anything. it is about doing the right thing. it's about providing people what they have been promised. >> martha: joining me now, a man who knows a bit about this law commode of the chief architects of obamacare, dr. ezekiel emanuel. thank you very much for being here tonight. good to have you with us. >> nice to be with you. >> martha: mr. trump signed an action to "grant a relief to ease the burden from financial and regulatory burdens of this obamacare act." what do you think? >> the executive order is cryptic, no one really knows what it means. he also did say that if you make

regulatory changes, you have to follow the law and bank regulatory changes that requires a common. mack and a notice. matt, those are actually taking months, so, it doesn't actually mean anything immediately. it is unclear what the burdens are that he wants to lift. if you run to the news conference, i think everybody could rally around the claim that we want lower-cost health care and we want to make sure as many people as possible get health insurance. that seems like one of those unifying bipartisan claims. i think that is the place we need to move. as the president's officials will know, that is easier said than done. lower-cost is not the easiest thing to achieve in health care. many of us put in a lot of policies under the affordable care act to try to get a lower cost and we did moderate cost for five years. but it's going to be hard work. >> martha: we know, just from the numbers, that people pay

more, the premiums have risen, the people that were supposed to get into this program opted out of it. the fines never happened, so, that didn't get into the bottom line, either. >> wait, wait, wait, you are saying a lot of things which are completely true. 22 million people did get health insurance under the affordable care act. >> martha: let me stop you right there. >> wait a second. many people that have fines levied against them. this is the first year you will have fines because of the way the delay works in enforcing the mandate. >> martha: an analysis of looking at that 20 million, johnson gruber, one of the original architects, as well, and to push this plan very hard and said, it turns out that 60% of the people who enrolled, if aca is gone, they will still be covered under medicare. he makes a very compelling argument that also 5.2 additional -- let me say one more thing, 5.2 additional million people float on and off of it, depending on what their income is. the idea that these people were

all covered under aca doesn't really hold up. >> i think you are confusing several points. first of all, 22 million people did get covered from the starting point in the end of 2015 through the day, did get covered, either through medicaid or the exchanges. some of those people might be eligible for medicaid if the affordable care act goes away. just a few days ago, the convertible congressional budget office concluded -- >> martha: there is a new bill being put forth by republicans -- >> of the cbo did put in a replacement program, that is correct. you will notice of the republicans have not actually agreed on a replacement program. it is very hard -- >> martha: this pushes a lot of the management of this to the states. direct grant blocks to the states, which is the opposite of what obamacare wanted once it e which was to centralize

health care at the federal level. that didn't work. let's have this manager in a way that gives a lot more direct relationship between patients and their doctors and the clinics that are local debt management. what is wrong with that? >> well, first of all, let's be clear what the collins proposal is. it is to say, states that want to keep medicaid expansion and the state exchanges, they can keep medicaid expansions and the state exchanges in the federal government will continue to pay the bill. that also includes estates that want to have the federal government run their exchange. that would actually keep the affordable care act in place. >> martha: they are saying if you like it you can keep it. >> the second part is, if you don't opt for that, you could opt for a situation where we will auto enroll people into a plan, still left a little vague what it is, they will get $5000 health savings account to pay for other medical expenses.

has not been very well flashed out. it is not clear how many people that will cover. >> martha: we thank you for being with us tonight. we will go through this process together as a nation as we repeal and essentially replaced. we hope you will come back. >> let me assure you, this will take many months because there was no agreement on the republican side with a replacement will look like. speak one thank you very much. >> thank you. >> martha: a woman who was kicked off a plane after she laid into another passenger with a blistering anti-trump tirade, the man she attacked is here with us life coming up next. ♪
