particular attention to these picks that we're hearing today. >> absolutely right. because the cabinet appointments now focused on national security and the department of justice. and because the federal government is the area's largest employer, new agency leaders could make sweeping policy changes. president-elect donald trump picked two of his earliest supporters in senator jeff sessions of alabama and retired generalke flynn doesn't need senate confirmation to become national security adviser. his expertise is military leadership. he served as director of the defense intelligence agency. his controversial comments such as fear of muslims is rational, is causing concern. there are also questions about his ties to russia. his meeting with president putin and a paid speaking engagement he made there. >> i still have a lot of reservations, this is someone who within the intelligence

someone who didn't work well with others. >> senator jeff sessions has been picked for attorney general. he was chairman of the immigration subcommittee. local advekacy group casa opposes his nomination saying he's at the center of the anti-immigrant campaign. sessions was blocked when nominated as a federal judge in 1986 after a former aide accused him of making racially insensitive comments. that raises he will protect civil rights. >> the obama administration put a lot of focus on the civil rights division after ferguson, that's what we saw in baltimore, there's going to be much less emphasis in a trump administration, particularly with the pick of jeff sessions when it comes to the civil rights division. >> mike pompeo has been nominated as cia director. he was a tea party conservative who was elected in 2010. he served on the house
