Ebola is a scary disease because of the severity of illness it causes. And were really hoping for the recovery of this individual. At the same time, we are stopping it in its tracks in this country. We can do that because of two things. Strong health care Infection Control that stops the spread of ebola and strong Core Public Health functions that trace contacts, tract contacts, isolate them, if they have any symptoms and stop the chain of transmission. And doctors at Texas Health Presbyterian hospital are confident theyre fully prepped to treat this patient. They say the man has been in isolation since he was admitted on sunday and that all possible precautions are being taken. Were caring for this patient because this person came to us for help, and they came to us sick. And its the right thing to do.

So in just a few hours, the man accused of jumping the white house fence and breaking into the first familys home is scheduled to face a judge. And this comes just one day after the head of the secret service was grilled on capitol hill about the recent security breach, among other things. Director Julia Pierson says the incident is unacceptable and promises a full review to ensure that nothing like this ever happens again. But she really faced some very strong criticism from both sides, democrats and republicans, really piling on who are outraged over a string of security lapses and were not pleased with her testimony. So in fact, the federal complaint in the earlier reports were not accurate, is that correct . Yes or no, please. I think the original complaint is accurate that mr. Gonzalez scaled the fence maam, hold it. I have very little time, and im not the American People want to know if their president is safe. I want it to be crystal clear. You make a run and a dash at the white house, were going to take you down. I want overwhelming force. Would you disagree with me . I do want our officers and agents to execute appropriate force for anyone attempting to challenge or breach the white house. Why would he say that theres no weapon . I will have to have have to ask mr. Donovan that question. You havent done that since the incident happened . Why would the secret service put out an official press release put out a statement to the Associated Press . Did you correct the Associated Press . Did you call them back and say, you got that wrong . I have no knowledge of that. This is beyond the pale. And ive listened to your testimony very deliberately here this morning. And i wish to god you you protected the white house like youre protecting your reputation here today. This is the secret service against one individual with mental illness. And you lost. You lost. And you had three shots at this guy. Have you ever heard of these guys . This is its not very costly. You can subscribe, but that can be installed. Its a Simple Technology device and Company Private system that can do that. So i dont think we have to spend a lot of money. That was kind of harsh. A lot of people just put those fake adt signs in their front yard and dont even have the service. Meanwhile, the Washington Post is reporting that Omar Gonzalez was tackled by an offduty agent.

The conservative Group GovernmentAccountability Institute reports the president missed nearly 60 of his daily briefings, perhaps explaining why isis was underestimated. However, the Washington Post pushing back on that report, saying the president reads his briefing every day but does not always request an inperson briefing. The post says that past president s often customized the way this they were briefed, adding that how president obama has structured his daily routine for years is pretty constant.

Its called way to early to call where a call a friend for an earlymorning chat. And hopefully this is going to work. She has an oscar, a tony, an emmy, a grammy, a golden globe and a ringing phone. Lets say hello to the legend that is whoopi goldberg. Whoo whoopi, are you there . Im here, thomas. Good morning. Oh, my gosh, you are so kind to do this. You know, my hint to everybody was that its such a relief that our surprise guest is in the habit of getting up. Ah. And you are in the habit of getting up early. What time do you typically get up . Ive been up for about an hour and a half now. And you dont sleep a lot, do you . You stay up late and you get up early. Yeah. Im just im just up. And so my brain just does stuff. And so i try to make sure that i am laying supine on my bed for at least a couple hours so i can rest. And then im doing stuff. Like im feeding the cat whos a little pissed at me right now. You have a very special cat. I love that cat. Hes very good. He likes you, too, but hes a little annoyed. Why . Hes a little annoyed you didnt call him. Thats all im going to say. I do this call every two weeks. I will call the cat in two weeks. How about that . Ill let him know. Hell call you in two weeks, ol. Weve got a lot that we need to get to because you have a hot new season of the view going on right now. Are you having fun . I am having fun. You know, its just its always a good time when you dont mind talking to the folks, you know. And ive been lucky, ive been there seven years. Ive had good times with pretty much everybody. But theres a lot of pressure on us to sort of prove and show and whats going to happen and whats going to you know, whos going to you know, its like theyre waiting for, like, a wwe chick fight or something. Its just, you know, so were just trying to do what we do and have a good time, which is what weve been doing the last couple weeks. So im very happy. Theyre already coming down on you. Headlines that you are already in a little bit of a spat with rosie odonnell. Please. Yeah. Heres the thing. Like family, you know, some days youre cranky. Yeah. There are four of us. Some days were just cranky. And i know its going to come as a shock, but i know all these guys on programs also get cranky with each other. But the difference is, theres not four guys every day talking to each other. And doing stuff. So they should just back off and see what we do, stop waiting for something to happen. Do you think theres a double standard, though, because we are watching a show of four powerful women together that are expressing their views . Yes, i do think theres a double standard. I do. I mean, its like, you know, nobody talks about, you know, hey, theres a spat over at, you know, sunday morning. You know. Nobody talks about you know, nobody says that. But its, like, you know, youre with people. You have outside influences. People saying, well, you know, we want to make sure your numbers are up and make sure you do this and you want to please the sponsors. So, you know, it can get a little pressurized and particularly with this show because people just they i dont know when that started, but i dont believe when the view began it was about chick fights, you know.
