All three were early supporters of mr. Trump and fierce critics of president Major Garrett begins our coverage. Weve got a great number of men and women, great qualifications. Reporter after a week of tough headlines about a transition in disarray, Vice President elect mike pence touted the team taking shape. Attorney general nominee Jeff Sessions was the first senator to endorse mr. Trump. This is a movement. Look at whats happening. Reporter sessions, 69, has served in the senate for 20 years, a hard liner on against the 2009 hate crimes bill and reauthorizing the violence against women act. Sessions 1986 nomination to be a federal judge failed when a witness at his Senate Confirmation hearing testified that sessions said he thought the ku klux klan was okay, equal he learned they smoked marijuana. And a former African American employee said sessions told them be careful what you say to white folks. Sessions and also that he accused groups like the n. A. A. C. P. Of being unamerican. My opinion is they have not. They may have taken position they say consider to be adverse to the security interest of the united states. Does that make them unamerican . No, sir, it does not. The president of the united states, donald trump. Flynn was also an early trump supporter. On twitter, flynn called fear of muslims rational, and in a february 2015 interview with charlie rose, criticized president obama for not using the phrase radical islamic terrorism. You know, lets get off the dime and just call it like it is. Which is, just one more time. I reporter kansas congressman, mike pompeo, the president elects choice for c. I. A. Director, serves on the intelligence commity and has called the end of the spy agencys enhanced Interrogation Program a mistake. He also wants to keep the prison in guantanamo bay, cube aopen. Pompeo was a coauthor of a republican report critical of state Department Actions before the 2012 benghazi terror attacks that killed four americans, including u. S. Ambassador chris former secretary of state Hillary Clinton on her communications with stevens. Ambassador stevens did not have your personal email address. Weve established that. Yes, thats right.

He had the fax number of the state department. Reporter the president elect will meet tomorrow with 2012 g. O. P. Nominee and romney. We are told the president elect harbors no acutely hard feelings and likes the sim plism of party unity but were also told a cabinet position for romney is, well, extremely unlikely. Dickerson Major Garrett for us in washington, thanks, major. So what did the democrats think of mr. Trumps choices . Nancy cordes is following that. You dont want someone, frankly, that can be a hot head at times or erratic. Reporter like many democrats, californias Adam Mike Flynn for National Security adviser. Just last year, the retired leiutenant general dined with Vladimir Putin in moscow. His views on russia ought to concern us all, like the president elect, hes been an apologist for the kremlin. Reporter democrats were just as critical of senator Jeff Sessions, tapped for attorney general. The Congressional Black Caucus called his civil rights record appalling. Luis gutierrez of illinois said, if you have notalgia for the days when blacks kept quiet and gays wer t senator sessions is your man. I think thats just false. Reporter William Smith worked for sessions for 10 years. To democrats who say he has a past of making racist statements, you say . I say they have they dont know senator sessions that well. They havent been around him. They havent worked with him. Hes a fine guy, never said anything inappropriate, and to chase something thats 30 years old i think is inappropriate. Reporter there was less democrats called the congressman bright and hard working and republicans hailed him as a strong choice. Those same republicans were silent about flynn, who unlike the other two, will not need to be confirmed by congress. In reality, democrats dont have the numbers to block any of these appointments if republicans stick together, right . Thats right. If the republicans stick together, the president will be able to, isly put anyone he wants in these positions which is, if we need another illustration of just how much elections really matter. Reporter normally, republicans would need at least a few democratic votes to confirm these nominees, but when they control the senate a few years ago, democrats reduced the number of votes needed from 60 to a simple majority of 51. It was called the nuclear option, john and its about to blow up in their faces. Dickerson nancy cordes, thanks so much, nancy. Well have a lot more on the transition and mr.

Reporter even boasting on twitter that Trump University had a 98 approval rating. In infomercial hes promised quality. I didnt want to put my name on anything having to do with education unless it was going to be the best. Reporter but some former students sued, saying they paid tens of thousands of dollars believing they would become successful in real estate but were misled. Gary smith paid 35,000. I thought he was, like, you sorts, you know. Reporter cbs news found in Court Documents a former events manager, corinne sommer, wrote, some consumers had showed up who were homeless and could not afford the seminars, but she said trump representatives told them, its okay. Just max out your credit card. His lawyers had also said many students who attended the program over the existence gave it a thumbsup, and those who failed had themselves to blame. But today, the students attorney, patrick coughlin, we have the majority of the student, 7,000someplus students that will receive at least. 50 or maybe up to 100 of a return. Reporter now, mr. Trumps attorney said in a statement, while we have no doubt that Trump University would have prevailed at trial based on the merit of the case, john, they said resolving the case lets the president elect focus on the important issues facing the country.

Reporter Los Angeles Police chief charlie beck recently made headlines when he said its not his departments job to help deport people if your job is to enforce the law, why would you not cooperate with efforts to remove people who are here illegally . It is not the primary job civil or federal laws. I think it would break down the connections that we have with immigrant communities. Reporter sanctuary cities that refuse to cooperate could lose billions of dollars in federal funding. Washington, d. C. Mayor Muriel Bowser could lose 20 of her budget. His immigration stance could really make his new home town less safe. Reporter the police chief here in los angeles says that if his officers become an lose the trust of immigrant communities, and, john, the fear is that people will stop reporting crimes or cooperating with investigations.

Among them, universal blood testing of children in 912 months and and because most lead powzening comes from old lead paint, the board wants mandatory inspections of rental howlses and homes built before 1978, when lead paint was outlawed. Michigan representative Sheldon Neeley if you knock on any door inside the city of flint and ask that family has anything changed with them, with all of the eyes on this particular community, they would say, no, im still drinking bottled water.
