Lets go to the state house where omar is standing by. Supporters say this is a symbol of southern pride. Critics say its a symbol of hatred and racism is. Both sides have turned out. Reporter youre absolutely right. The people that want to see it down outnumber the people who want to see it up. Its expected to come down in the next few minutes. Were waiting for governor nikki haley. Several streets have been shut off. We went from a crowd of few hundred to few thousand in a matter of minutes. Very very Police PresenceWalking Around here trying to make sure security is top of line. I understand omar the pole to which the flag is attached appears to have month mechanismc have no mechanism. How is that brought down . It is inside the crank. We saw the department of safety go up and open the crank box. They did a few dry runs to make sure it was well oiled. This is going to be solemn and quick as well. The second the flag is taken down, it will be put in the happens of the Museum Curator and head to the museum less than a mile from where were standing. We got to this point after 13 hours of heated debate. Lets take viewers back to june 17th the massacre at the church that killed nine africanamericans. What triggered this debate and started people saying its time for this to go dune . You hear the crowd chanting take it down. When dylann roof was in court t the victims family members confronted him and said we forgive you. That was the turning point when they realized this is no longer a lit political issue. This is a what is right issue. Everyone said that was the key moment. I understand nikki hay willy went out and surveyed the scene. She came out and called for removal days after the massacre. She was quoted saying no one should drive by the state house and feel pain. Reporter youre absolutely right. She was out here earlier. Shes been very vocal. She was meeting with the caucuses and get motional. You may see Governor Haley there in white now. Shes been pushing for this. Today its going to happen. When the governor asked the legislator to take down this flag on june 17th then they finally approved it she used 13 pens to sign that bill into law. Nine of them went to the family of the victim who is were killed at the ame church in charleston. Are my of the victims families there today . Reporter we are understanding there are going to be some of the victims families up there with Governor Haley. Were friends of those People Killed in charleston in the crowd. People that knew senator pinckney. Theyre very emotional. I asked a state representative who knew pinckney what he would say about this. She said he would be happy but wouldnt want this about him. He would want beampeople to focus on the other eight victims. Youre watching a ceremony in front of the State Capitol in South Carolina to lower the Confederate Flag next to the monument monument. Its flown there since 2000 on a flag pole. It was moved there after great controversy flying over the state house where it was put up in 1961 to mark the 100th anniversary of the civil war. Many thought it was flying there for opposition of the civil rights movement. It was moved to this flag pole in 2000. The flag pole itself will be taken down too. Reporter that i understand will happen. A small gate around it will be removed. It will not happen today. Governor haley and lawmakers want to completely remove it. In front of it its the memorial to confederate soldiers. That memorial is several stories tall. It is at the front entrance to the capitol. You see it when you come in through the front entrance to get on the state grounds. The flag behind it since 2000 is coming down. Theres been several proposals. The idea maybe they could put it in a glass case. The idea it could be bronzed next to this location. When you talk to people on the ground what are they saying about this decision to take it down . We hear its going to be a solemn process, not a lot of pageantry involved when the flag comes down. Reporter theres a debate where it should be in the relic room and how it should be displayed. Thats something the legislator will bring up. Theyll have to bujtddget for that and come up with a design. Its not as simple as taking it down here. You see the Highway Patrol honor guard is coming towards the flag. Lets watch and listen here. This is a historic moment. [ crowd cheering ] [ cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ] [ cheers and applause ] [ crowd chanting u. S. A. ] we have just seen South Carolinas Highway Patrol honor guard take down the Confederate Flag which has flown more than 50 years on the State Capitol or State Capitol grounds. This has been an emotional debate that has raised in South Carolina for decades. There was a compromise in 2000 they took it down from the top of the capitol to the grounds next to the soldiers memorial. Today its removed permanently from the state grounds, a bipartisan agreement by republicans and democrats, together. Interesting because this is a deliberately low key ceremony. Month commentary from lowering the flag. The commentary came in the state house. When this flag was moved in front of the capitol to the confederate memorial it was put up with stipulation it would take two thirds majority to take it down. They got that. It passed the senate 363 passed the house 9327. The movement to take it down was loud and clear. In terms of where it will go from here norah mentioned the Highway Patrol honor guard took it down. It will be handed to a Museum Curator and go to the relic room and military museum. Omar is standing by. What will happen to the flag once it gets to the museum . Reporter thats another debate that could spark emotion. Members of the legislator maybe want it flown again. Others say maybe folded up and displayed as another relic. But thats another discussion. Its going into that room. Theres going to be a lot of attention paid to how its displayed. What are you hearing from the crowd there . Reporter theres a lot of you hear over my shoulder. A lot are chanting u. S. A. U. S. A. They were saying hey hey goodbye. People behind us are just staying quiet and emotional. Older people here realize its coming down something theyve wanted decades. Some told me they never thought theyd see it in their lifetime. Some are here with children. Maybe children are not sure how important this is. A lot of people are emotional. Theres a big National Convention this weekend where theyll discuss ending the boycott of South Carolina. This has been an issue thats been highly controversial. A debate has been raised quite some time. Many some ways today its taken up in South Carolina and across the country. Governor haley was joined by charlestons major riley whos been vocal from the beginning about the flag coming down. Emotional day for a lot of people. A flag thats flown 50 years is now down.

Congress is considering action against socalled sanctuary cities. Theyve come under scrutiny since this months murder of a sacramento woman. Jan crawford has more. Reporter sanctuary cities have long been controversial. It was their way to support immigrants, get some help if they got involved with minor offenses. With that murder last week in San Francisco and immigration a contentious issue on the campaign, many politicians now are demanding change. Were going to eliminate sanctuary cities. Reporter republican candidates are in agreement. One of the things weve talked about in the past and tried to get included is getting rid of sanctuary city situation. I dont think you can have whole cities or whole states just not obeying the law. Reporter it became front page news after the murder of katherine steinle. She was shot by a convicteded felon who had been deforted to mexico five times. He was released in jail in april but was on the street because San Francisco ignored a request from federal immigration officials to notify them before he was set free. The crime even has Democratic Candidates like Hillary Clinton appearing to soften their support for sanctuary city. The city made a mistake not to deport someone the federal government strongly felt should be deported. Reporter for republicans its a chance to reset the immigration debate and move away from Donald Trumps incendiary comments about immigrants. They can offer a safe harbor for undocumented immigrants who otherwise might face deportation. Many of these policies have been around for decades, but that could change. Arkansas republican senator tom cotton introduced legislation that would block sanctuary cities from getting federal Law Enforcement funds. We should all be able to agree that criminals who should be deported under our laws should not be set free with impunity. There should be no sanctuary for hardened criminals in this country.

Its sparking outrage. A michigan judge is holding three kids in contempt of court after they refused to spend time with their father. The children including one teenager, are in a juvenile detention facility. The judge stated when you can follow the courts direct order and have a normal healthy relationship with your father i will review this. You are so mentalley messed up right now and its not because of your father. Rikki klieman is with us. Good morning. What are we missing in this kais. It seems like the judge is taik taking an awfully punitive role. Punitive may be too kind a word. This is more draconian. This is like scared straight or tough love. You have a judge who has just had enough. And the reason she went forward and threw these kids into a Juvenile Hall because they wouldnt talk to their father has to do with the guardian appointed for the kids who seven months ago, he too, threw up his hands and said warned the mom, and the mom is poisoning the kids against the dad and said if you dont get these kids to ship up and talk to their father, then ultimately theyll wind up in the childrens village, juvenile detention facility. Getting the court involved in Something Like this might only make it worse. The problem is you have a custody battle in family court, and the court is the only authority that can try to bring this family together. We look at cases, what we call parental alienation. What it really is is about one parent in a divorce who ultimately gets hold of the child and or in this case three children and poisons the well against the other spouse. In this case if you read the transcript of this hearing, the transcript offends me more than the ultimate ruling because shes saying to the kids you are in a mansonlike cult. You ought to read about charles manson. That was a bit over the top for me. The judge saying i ordered you to have a healthy relationship with your father. Can a judge order someone to have a healthy relationship with one of their parents . It would sbbing ingbe interesting if they had such ultimate power. The kids have the keys to the kingdom. They are in a juvenile facility. If theyll simply talk with their father when he visits them, hell report to the court and theyll come back. Why wouldnt the guardian recommend action against the mother. If the mother is poisoning them why isnt this worked out between the two parents rather than taking it out on the children . I agree. The mother is the person by everything ive looked at. There are six volumes in this case. Hearings and transcripts. This mother according to the court, according to the guardian according to the therapist has been busy obstructing in this case for all these years. I would agree. If there should be a sanction it should be against mom. Shes a party to the divorce which, the divorce has been final for some time. Kids are the victims. Rikki klieman, what a mess.

Others were just happy to see the flag come down. This was among heavy security. Gates were put up streets were closed off by the capitol so cars could not come and go. The flag is with a Museum Curator and it will be put in the relic room just a mile away from the capitol. The fight over the battle flag is spilling over into Americas National cemeteries. Republican leaders canceled the house vote to allow the confederate banner to be displayed at veterans grave sites. It can already be flown with some restrictions dem contracts objected. A new poll this morning says donald trump leads the republican president ial field. That follows his controversial comments about undocumented mexican immigrants. The Republican National chairman wants trump to lower his tone but its not happening. You have to go back 35 years to tell me about something, thats pretty pathetic to be honest. Theres nothing to apologize. We have stupid leaders, we have a stupid group of people at the top and they allow things like this to happen. I love the mexican people. They have tremendous spirit they have tremendous vie brans and life. I have so many friends, i respect the country of mexico. The Illegal Immigrants coming in are causing tremendous problems in terms of crime, in terms of murder in terms of rape. I will win the latino vote because i want to put them to work. Cbs news contributor frank luntz is with us. You heard donald trump. He says he has nothing to apologize for. Now hes at the top of the polls. Which group of Republican Voters is rehe resonating with . I have to emphasize. This is going to sound awful to some of your viewers, but over the last ten years the American People have come to see attributes character traits as more important than issues. The number one attribute that republicans and democrats want is someone who says what they mean and means what they say. We can disagree horribly we can feel that donald trump is offensive in what he says but the fact hes saying it so bluntly, so overtly without any censuring which as a political consultant i would tell him, back off. But the fact hes saying it so directly to millions of americans, this is what they want in a leader. If you look at the front page of the paper today, and ive talked so some republicans that theres this concern in the republican party, a Swift Response to denounce his comments or a handsoff approach because theyre worried about inflaming his supporters or distancing himself or he may run on a third party ticket. Is this a problem for the party in many ways. Very good question. In 1992 the Republican Partnership made fun of ross perot, belittled him and his supporters. That 19 could have gone to george bush, but instead it went to bill clinton. Weve seen it happen before. The people supporting trump, its not a movement, but it is something that is grassroots. Its based on a way of communicating that we havent heard any president ial candidate do with the possible exception of Bernie Sanders on the democratic side. I would point out hes doing surprisingly well because of that same say it like it is approach. Mitt romney won just 27 of the hispanic vote in 2012 as you know. Republicans have been trying to build a bridge to hispanics. Is trump effectively burning that bridge down before its finished . Its still a year and a half away from the election but your point is a good one. Republicans cant win without at least 35 of the latino vote. It matters particularly in a state like florida which is the most important state in america. What trump says is going to turn off those voters. Theres no mistaking that. At this stage in the race though, we have seen before what Washington Post calls novelty candidates. Do you think as we head into the debates, do you think trump will, one, take part in the debate and two how does his campaign move forward . Whats the momentum at this point . Fox news has to decide what criteria theyre going to use. The fact is trump qualifies as a declared candidate but hasnt filed his financial reports. Until he does that it is a legitimate reason to exclude him. We have to see what happens there. But if he does participate, i will tell you in the focus groups that ive done and ive been doing a lot over the last 60 days trump is the most interesting candidate, both positive and negative. People want to talk about him, they want to hear what he has to say, they want to laugh at him, but they want to listen to him. Frank luntz, thank you.

It follows the revelation that cosby bought quaaludes intending to give them to women he wanted to have sex with. Theres a new movement to remove the disgraced comedians star from the hollywood walk of fame. Ben tracy is in hollywood to show us why the star will likely stay. Reporter for nearly four decades bill cosby has been immortalized in marble on the hollywood walk of fame. If they dont remove that star, we can call it the walk of shame. Reporter activists are calling for a concrete change after damning new revelations about cosbys past. To have somebody like this, an admitted drug gi and serial rapist, sexual abuser right in the middle of hollywood boulevard is a disgrace and shame. Reporter the Hollywood Chamber of commerce which oversees the walk of fame says it has no plans to get rid of the star saying once a star has been added to the walk, it is considered a part of the historic fabric of the hollywood walk of fame. Because of this we have never removed a star. I think that decision will upset a lot of people just because of the breadth of these allegations against him. But if the walk of fame would remove bill cosby, it would open itself up to scrutiny. The chamber is also threatening to remove Donald Trumps star after his comments about mexican immigrants. Silent movie actor Roscoe Arbuckle and michael jackson, many now consider cosby a falling star. Not only was his walk of final plaque vandalized with the word rapist, his bronze bust was removed from disney world following an online petition. Its not hard to get a star on the walk of fame all you have to do is submit a list of professional accolades to a sixmember board, get approved and pay a 30,000 fee which is why some in the Entertainment Industry say the walkway is more about welcoming tourists than celebrating success. Like many things in hollywood, the walk of fame is not what it seems. Within hollywood, its sort of a joke. People are honored to get it but not taken as the most serious honor. As cosbys reputation rapidly changes, his place on this hollywood sidewalk appears to be secure. For cbs this morning, ben tracy. Giving new life to the subway stations of the london underground. If youve been to london chances are youve been on londons underground, but you have never been here.

Reporter david dunlap of the New York Times took us to the base of the parade route. As we walk up the street theres plaque for each parade. A plaque for each parade, about 200 in all. Reporter the honorees reflect the passions of each era from military heroes coming home from ware, aviators like Charles Lindbergh to astronauts like john glenn. Foreign dignitaries were also granted the honor. In 1990 Nelson Mandela was taken down the route in whats called the Nelson Mandela mobile. And yankees and others have been taken down the streets.

Were part of it. Im so proud of everyone. Im proud of becky one of the best defenders in the world and just cleaned up everything back there. You knew so many people would be watching this, but when you were off the field and after people told you, 27 million viewers, what did that mean to you to see so many people there. Youre hearing all the cheers, but to hear that many people tuned in. I mean wow. We had no idea. We kept hearing that the numbers were creeping up each game but that final game when we heard the number we were like, thats amazing, thats unbelievable. We love womens soccer but to know that the country loves womens soccer too thats great. What do you think it means to the game .

One of the things we reported on was your team will win 2 million for winning the world cup and yet the german mens team who won got 35 million. What do you think about that pay disparity . Thats a big gap. I think they can push that up a lot more. We work just as hard as men. We push ourselves to the limit, and i think weve got to keep going and keep pushing on so that we can kind of close that gap a little bit. You think fifa should close that gap . Absolutely. No doubt about it. How about you, becky . I agree. When you look at the viewership obviously people are interested. We want to keep minimizing that gap. What we did is amazing you know. Germanys mens team thats great. Lets share the love lets get those millions going. Definitely thats something were working towards to minimize that gap. Your next big challenge, the 2016 olympics. Is the team going to Stay Together for that you think . I think for the most part i think most of us will be back. Theyll probably be a few people that may not stick around. But who knows . Are you going to let your fiancee come to this one . No. Youll be married by then. After so i can fully focus. Thank you both for coming in. An honor to meet you. Thank you. Appreciate it.
