Opener in 90 seconds. In a house of history im acutely aware. I plan to obey the constitutional laws of this tgrea country. This is a phenomenal pick. This is remarkable. This may be a happier day than when President Trump was elected. The nomination had to be very carefully scrutinized. I think there are going to be an enormous number of senators who decide this person is not suitable. This is a very bad decision, well outside the mainstream of american legal thought. Im mucho happy about this pick. The mere idea that theyre not even showing up to hearings is truly outrageous. Democratic senators staged a boycott several of President Trumps president ial picks. A plane made an Emergency Landing following a bomb scare. Passrsengee werevacuated. Thieves stormed a ft. Lauderdale Jewelry Store. It took less than two minutes to stlho tusands of dollars in jewels that oh, deer. Thats what these employees must have been saying. Former astronaut buzz aldrin and bill nye the science guy. 50 years in broadcasting. Maybeou yll pay me a visit at my new place in las vegas. Why not. We can share a cold one and maybe a win or two. On cbs this morning. Jon stewart stops by the late show to talk trump with stephen colbert. Its been 11 days, stephen. The presidency is age the president , not the public. Announcer this mornings eye opener presented by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning. Neil gorsuch is President Trumps pick to fill the vacancy in the Supreme Court. Hes built a consistent conservative record as a judge. The president calls him a man who our country really needs and he says the nominees qualifications are beyond dispute. The 49yearold gorsuch is a member of the 10th Circuit Court of appeals in den very. Hes the youngest High Court Nominee since Clarence Thomas in 1991. His outlook as a judge is similar to the late justice an toe lynn scalia. He went to law school with former president obama who tried and failed to choose scalias jan crawford with the nominee and the fight ahead. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Candidate trump promised he would nominate conservative justices to the Supreme Court and as he unveiled his first nominee last night, he said he was fulfilling that promise. Millions of voters said this was the single most important issue to them when i became president. I am a man of my world. Reporter at the time President Trump introduced his Supreme Court choice to the nation. Today im keeping another promise to the American People by nominating judge neil gorsuch. Reporter the 49yearold federal Appeals Court judge appeared moved by the idea of replacing a conservative giant. Justice scalia was the lion of the law. Agree or disagree with him, all of his colleagues on the bench cherished his wisdom and humor and t reporter addressing a roomful he echoed his conservative judicial philosophy. Our legal order, its for courts not the congress to write the new laws. A judge who likes every outcome he reaches is very likely a bad judge. Hes been compared to judge scalia with his sharp intellect but not his sharp elbows. He has no specific rulings on abortion rights in his 2006 book on assisted suicide, he argued that practice as a taking of life. Born and raised in colorado, gorsuch moved to washington, d. C. As a teenager when president reagan tapped his mother to become the first mother to head the Environmental Protection agency. He moved in circles in washington and oxford these fancy places but at his core he group in colorado, felt he was a part of the west, felt that was his home. Attorney mark hanson recruited him. When i practiced with him, he was the guy who was always willing to listen to colleagues, to adversaries, courts. He was not hostile or adversarial in his manner. Reporter those qualities could help build consensus on the court, yet minutes after mr. Trump trumps announcement, liberal protesters flocked to the streets of the steps calling his pick extreme. Others promise a close scrutiny of his record. You know, the white house was actually quoting a legal expert as saying he would be impossible to oppose, but in this political climate, it seems like nothing is impossible. Norah . That is true, jan. Thank you so much. Judge gorsuch will be on capitol hill meeting senators who will decide his nomination. Gorsuch will need to gett furious that republicans block mayor garlands Supreme Court nomination. Nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the brugrueling fight. They refer to this as a stolen seat. They believe it was president obamas right to name this Supreme Court justice. They have threatened to hold up the nomination for an undefined period of time. Some have said they are going to vote no. Others say they have a lot of questions. I have very deep serious concerns as to whether he is in the mainstream. Like Many Senate Democrats connecticuts Dick Blumenthal expressed skepticism but not outride opposition. Im troubled by his stance on privacy rights, particularly womens rights, health and public safety. Republicans meanwhile were thrilled praising gorsuch as impressive, consistent conservative. I think its very tough, very tough to attack this judges credentials. You look at his ju dishlg experience. Great temperament. That temperament helped him win unanimous approval in 2006 when he was up for Appeals Court judge. Among those who did not oppose his nomination then senators barack obama, hillary clinton, joeen bid and then Chuck Schumer. He had one criteria. Nominate a mainstream person, not out of the mainstream. Last night schumer said i have very serious doubting about judge gorsuchs ability to meet that standard. Today i am nom nagt chief judge merritt garland. This is the beginning of a fouryear term. This is not in the middle of a president ial election. It takes 60 votes to confirm a Supreme Court judge but republicans have left it open to knock it down 51 to blow up the fill buster depending how long democrats stall. They view that as a last resort, charlie, because it could come back to bite republicans when theyre in the minority. Thanks, nancy. Attorney david boies was in front of the Supreme Court. He also fought to overturn the gay marriage ban paving the way for marriage equality. Were pleased to have him. Welcome. Good to be here. He is enormously brilliant as an attorney . Absolutely. And ink trump was right last night when he said he is somebody with tremendous legal skills, a brilliant mind, outstanding discipline. I think all of those things are true about him. I also think he is somebody who is not in the id loedeologica mainstream. Ideologically where is he compared to Justice Scalia . Maybe a little more conservative on some issues than Justice Scalia. Hes got a wide variety of views. Hes been on the court of appeals that doesnt have quite the same mix. Let me understand, david. Are you recommending that the democrats not support him . I think the democrats have got to take a very careful look at him. This presents a dilemma, i th k think. You have somebody who is a brilliant legal mind, somebody who if you had an for judges would pass all those tests. On the other hand, he is not in what i believe to be the mainstream of judicial laud. And one of the things we learned from judge garland is its not enough to be a brilliant judge. Its not enough to be a great judge. If that were true, there wouldnt be a vacancy. Judge garland would be in that seat. You heard Lindsey Graham say a minute ago hes mucho happy. The democrats appear to be mucho mad. It seems were going into a tit for tat situation. The democrats are still bruised because of what happened with judge marek garland. Do you think its now becoming such a political issue and not whats important for the Supreme Court . I think its both. I think what is important for the Supreme Court is that you do have ideological balance. You cant have a rule that only republican president s get to appoint Supreme Court justices and the democrats have to sep i think its unfortunate. I was on this program a few months ago. I think its unfortunate he wasnt confirmed. I think its important that they appoint people who are a sure vote for the left and the right. There oohs a lot of talk about the second pick President Trump gets to make. Of course, gorsuch would replace another conservative, scalia. But theres information from the New York Times that it would allow kennedy the idea that perhaps he could retire and thats the swing vote. Thats the second shoe to drop and obviously very important. One strategy i heard, let this one go and really save your fire for the potential kennedy vote . I dont think people are going to see it that way. The senate has got a responsibility to advise and consent. It requires 60 votes. If the republicans want to they can do that, but there will be a time when the democrats are in the majority. Heres whats interesting about this. When he was confirmed by the senate for the court of appeal, it was almost a unanimous vote. Same thing with justice garland. People will be confirmed. It always comes back to this. Because you did this to garland i dont think its that so much. Its not so much tit for tat. Youve about got to have balance and if you dont have blaalance you dont have a balanced Supreme Court. So youve got to have the same rules, republicans and democrats. If you dont do that, you dont have balance. David boies, you always have the last word. Always good to see you. Thank you. A key american ally is using strong words. He calls the Trump Administration a threat to europe in the same category as russia, china, and radical islam. Homeland security secretary john kelly is defending the rollout and enforcement of the for seven mostly muslim countries. Margaret brennan is at the white house. Margaret, good morning. Good morning.

The results released overnight showed the 2017 tesla model s came up short. The bmwi 3 also got lower. The shelf have volt came on top along with the prius prime. Demarco is here with what led to these results. Good morning. They received the top safety pick award. The two models fell short in at least two safety categories. One of the tesla crash tests it performed looked like it could put the driver at risk. The iihs put the cars through a test. It was called a small overlap front crash test where they earned the rating. The dummies moved too far forward into the airbag and his head hit the Steering Wheel through the airbag. We also measured elevated forces on the dummys leg indicating possible injury to the leg itself. Reporter tesla released a statement saying one of the improvements recently introduced in jab 2017 received an acceptable test and we expect new tests to yield the heist possible rating, good rating, in the crash worthiness category. The tesla model also received a poor rating measuring aspects like brightness and visibility on curves. This was considered a fail though it should be noted the headlights are not necessarily unsafe. They meade the Motor Vehicle safety standards. In giving top honors to them they did well a in all safety categories as well as crash systems but analysts note they are far above the industry norm. For people who own a tesla, youre fine. For people who are going to buy a tesla, tesla has said theyre going to address these concerns, youll be fine too. This is not the first time tesla has had to defend its safety standards. Nhtsa recently released its findings after a car who was test driving the model s was killed. They could not identify any safetyrelated defects. We reached out but have not heard back. Norah . Thank you.
