The First Day (2016)

Michael Kinney: Deputy Director of National Intelligence #1

Quotes 

• Harris Cochrane : Preliminary analysis from the FBI's Explosive Device Center tells us that residue found on the Capitol debris is consistent with bombs used by Al-Sakar in the past. Mr. President, it's time to publicly name Al-Sakar as the perpetrator of this crime and take appropriate action.

  Tom Kirkman : Okay. Before we do anything, the FBI is absolutely certain that Al-Sakar was behind the attack?

  Deputy Director of National Intelligence #1 : 75%, sir.

  Tom Kirkman : [incredulous]  75%?

  Harris Cochrane : That's as high as it gets when it comes to a call like this.

  Tom Kirkman : 75 is still a "C" on a test, general.

  Harris Cochrane : This is not a test. This is war.

  Tom Kirkman : All the more reason to get it right, don't you think?
