What about your reporter meanwhile, the president s personal attorney, rudy giuliani, laughed off questions about his contentious interview with cnn where he admitted to pressuring the Ukrainian Government to look into the biden family. You did ask ukraine to look into joe biden . Of course i did. Reporter cbs news has learned the president s outreach to ukraine is at the center of a whistleblower complaint filed by a former intelligence official. The specific details of the complaint are not known as the Justice Department and the white house have blocked it from being handed over to congress. Arguing the president is outside the scope of the intelligence communitys inspector general. Its a partisan whistleblower.

Trump pressured the ukrainian president eight times to investigate former Vice President joe bidens son hunter who worked for a Ukrainian Gas Company during the obama administration. Not one single credible outlet has given any credibility to his assertion. Not one single one. Reporter while campaigning in iowa, biden first dismissed any wrongdoing. So i have no comment except the president should start to reporter he later fired back writing in a statement, such clearcut corruption, damages, and diminishing our government by making them tools of a personal, political vendetta. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi says this whistleblowers complaint raises Urgent National security concerns.

So far there is no evidence proving thats what happened. Jeff . Okay. Thank you so much. This morning, iran is lashing out at tighter economic sanctions being imposed on it by the u. S. It warns it will destroy anyone who attacks iran in reprisal for the attacks on saudi oil fields. The u. S. Blames iran for striking at those key Saudi Oil Facilities last week. Iran denies any involvement. Irans threat comes as the u. Says it will send military forces to saudi arabia and the united arab emirates. Ian lee is in the saudi capital of riyadh with the latest. Good morning. Reporter good morning. The u. S. Destroyer is patrolling off the coast of saudi arabia today. Its armed with surfacetoair missiles to plug the gaps in the kingdoms defenses. This comes as the white house boosts its military presence in the region. Secretary of mark esper announced last night the u. S. Is sending additional troops to saudi arabia to reinforce defenses after last weeks attack on two oil refineries. In response to the kingdoms request, the president has approved the deployment of u. S. Forces which will be defensive in nature and primarily focused on air and missile defense. We will also work to accelerate the delivery of military equipment to the kingdom of saudi arabia and the uae to enhance their ability to defend themselves. Reporter the Administration Says the increased military presence will also ensure the free flow of commerce through the strait of hormuz. The critical waterway where iran has seize tiger woods foreign tankers and seized two foreign tankers and seized more in recent months. The United States and saudi arabia accuse iran of being behind the attack on the kingdoms Oil Facilities, a claim tehran denies. This was the first look at that damage with burntout towers and storage tanks, caused by cruise missiles and attack drones. This is a crucial part of the plan. You the plant. You have the oil fields thats pumped in to this part of the facility. This is where they separate the gas and water from the oil. So when the projectile hit this tank, it created an enormous fireball. The fires raged for hours, and repairs are underway. But repairing the calm in the region looks difficult as tensions continue to rise. A beefed up u. S. Military presence on the Arabian Peninsula has been a source for antiamerican sentiment in the past. Osama bin laden used it to rally fellow jihadis to resist what he called a crusader invasion.

Gay rights has been a big issue here in the first in the nation caucus state for several years. Its just one of the issues president ial candidates are talking about in their mad dash. Back when some democrats were talking about civil unions, i was performing marriages in 2004 at San Francisco city hall. I remember serving under dont askdont tell. I remember the weight lifted when that was no longer a threat to my career. Reporter candidates took turns explaining how they protect gay, lesbian, and transgender rights. Donald trump has a strategy. Hes got a plan. His strategy is turn people against people. Reporter despite having pushed thenpresident obama to support samesex marriage, former Vice President joe biden had to strongly defend his gay rights record amid questions of his past work with republicans. You have also praised Vice President mike pence as a decent guy. A lovely person. [ laughter ] i came out on meet the press in support of gay marriage before anybody else did nationally. I didnt have to eresolve. Reporter the forum comes as candidates are focused on winning over iowa voters with a caucus here only about 130 day away. Im not going to change who i am. Youre going to get exactly what i am. [ applause ] were going to win reporter one candidates doubling down in iowa is california senator Kamala Harris who despite slipping back in polls here now says shes determined to finish in the top three. So im moving here. Can be frustrating to have to make these decisions that feel like a tradeoff. But i plan on spending as much time as i can here. Reporter in order to win, harris has to convince voters like john elfick. He his said favorites are biden, harris, and massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren. Its a little harder this time because theres so many, so many candidates. Reporter in one night, elfick attended a harris rally and an event held by warren. Having seen both in one night, did your opinions change at all . I look them both. Reporter youre still torn . Im still torn. Reporter you meet a lot of undecided voters like john these days in iowa.

If youre vegan, if youre a kid, dont worry, they have options for you, too. Jeff . A lot to chew on, ed. Yeah. Ed, we know how important iowa is in the early voting, especially candidates trying to make up ground like areas. There are changes to how the caucuses are going to be held next year. What are those, and whats the impact . Reporter remember when you go to a caucus, you have to show up at a specific time and place, depending on your precinct. Just yesterday, Iowa Democrats got permission to hold what are called satellite caucuses, allowing shift workers at a factory or hospital to gather together that night and make their decision. The ideas to boost participation among democrats across the state, and theres a good chance that could favor ce rit. Thank you.

The death toll continues to rise after catastrophic flooding swept through southeast texas. The remnants of Tropical Storm imelda are being felt in north texas and oklahoma. The storm dumped more than 40 inches of rain in some areas that are still recovering from the devastation left by Hurricane Harvey two years ago. Mireya villarreal is in winnie, texas. Good morning. Reporter good morning. You know, five deaths so far have been linked to imelda, including a 47yearold that was found in a car that was submerged in these floodwaters. The good news is some of this water is starting to recede. The roads next to me, this was impassable a few days ago. Now things are getting better. Theres still a lot of floodwaters, as you can see here, in peoples front yards and inside their homes. Officials are hoping over the next few days that some water will recede even more, allowing them to get a better count of how many homes, businesses, cars have been flooded out by this massive storm. Floodwats sweeping over entire neighborhoods in houston are forcing homeowners to still keep their distance. Major highways across southeast drivers to navigate through treacherous conditions over the last few days. Harris county Officials Say hundreds of people were rescued from their hoemps when a bayou homes when a bayou became swollen with floodwater.

Ke sure i no looting in this area,letill cant get backo their homes. Y so much. So many of those areas never got back to normal after what happened a couple of years ago. The homes, the area, and now this. Trying to figure out what to do next. Thank you. Meteorologist Jeff Berardelli has the latest on whats left of imelda and the rest of the nations weather. Good morning. Good morning, michelle, and good morning, everyone. Were looking at a large map of how much rain fell during imelda. And wherever you see the white, thats about 20 to 30 inches of rain. It extends from houston all the way to the border of louisiana and texas. This is immense. To give you some perspective, its the size of connecticut and massachusetts combined. I called dr. Curie emmanuel at mit, hes an atmospheric scientist that studies these type of events. He says the probability of an event like this happening back in the 1980s and 1990s was one now because of a warmer climate and Climate Change it is a one in 100year event. Climate change is making these types of events, more extreme events much more common. Imeldas moisture is moving northward. As it does so, its movinging into air temperatures in the 70s and 80s today, and thats colliding with an invasion of winter across the rockies. Temperatures in the 30s. That collision causing a lot of showers and thunderstorms and Severe Weather later today in kansas, into missouri, also into iowa. Tennis ballsized hail. Wind gusts up to around 70 miles per hour. Watch out for that. Because imeldas moisture is kind of part of this system, were going to see about double the amount of rainfall we otherwise would have, a swath around kansas city, quincy, des moines, chicago, could see two to five or six inches of rain. Watch out for flash flooding. The rest of the country looking good. In fact, the first day of autumn is monday. Enjoy the rest of your weekend and our transition to autumn.

Reporter teenagers organized the climate strikes inspired by the fridays for future campaign led by 16yearold swedish activist greta thunberg. The mission student walkouts every friday until elected leaders make changes to protect the environment. I think that if enough people go together and stand up for this, that can have a huge difference.

Just goes to show you that the power of one, that one teenager, greta, from sweden young people worried about their future. Thank you. It is about 22 minutes after the hour right now. Heres a look at the weather for your weekend. Coming up, an nfl shocker. The new England Patriots cut ties with allpro Antonio Brown after he plays just one game for them.

Ready end zone, caught by brown touchdown, new england. Antonio brown, the newest patriot. It was less than a week ago that superstar wide receiver Antonio Brown looked like he would be headlining a seemingly unstoppable offense for the new England Patriots. On friday the defending super bowl champs cut brown after he had played just one game for them. The move came after a second woman had accused him of sexual misconduct. The new England Patriots shocked the football world when they signed Antonio Brown less than two weeks ago. The threatened but controversial wide receiver had just been released by the oakland raiders, despite the team signing him to a 50 Million Contract this year. A day after he joined new england, browns former trainer, 28yearold britney taylor, filed a civil lawsuit alleging he sexually assaulted her three times, including a violent rape at his miami home last year. Taylor sat down with nfl investigators on monday for ten hours. That same day, Sports Illustrated published an account by another woman who says brown made unwanted sexual advances toward her in 2017 after he hired her to paint a mural in his house. Thursday night, Sports Illustrated reported that same woman received an intimidating group text allegedly from browns telephone which included pictures of her and her children. The texter accused the woman of fabricating her story for cash. During his friday news conference, patriots coach Bill Belichick cold reporters he wouldnt told reporters he wouldnt comment on any of browns offthefield issues. Im good. Okay. Thank you. Reporter belichick abruptly ended the session. Hours later, brown was off the team, and the patriots released a statement reading in part, we feel that it is best to move in a different direction at this time. The nfl is investigating the claims against brown and could suspend him. His agent says that brown is looking forward to playing in the nfl again. And as it works out, i happen to be doing sidelines for the patriots game on sunday. As the broadcast team we were at practice yesterday. The only ones there and i can tell you Antonio Brown practiced the entire time. At least to us it didnt look like he wouldnt be playing. No indication just out of the blue . I mean, theyve been investigating, and these reports were out. Bill belichick said at the conference they were looking into things. At least we know this much, he was practicing with the team yesterday. We will see if he hooks one another team now at any point youre taking a lot with that. Much more ahead. First, a look at the weather for your weekend. Hundreds of thousands marched friday to pressure leaders on Climate Change. Well go to one of the battlegrounds in the climate crisis. The forests of the Pacific Northwest are at the center of a battle between logging interests and environmentalists. Why this long fight is now reaching a critical point.

It protected more than 24 million acres of area. The debate over what to do with the ancient forests has come under new scrutiny who should be in charge of the future, industry or environmentalists. We traveled deep into the forest and above it looking for answers as part of our series eye on earth. November 2122 sierra. Runway two reporter our trip began in a small plane. Maybe the best way to see whats happening in western oregon. You can see where theres a few trees left here and there. Thats required by oregon law. Reporter our guide, Chandra Lague of the group oregon wild. Were actually in the heart of some serious logging right now. Reporter the views from overhead can be jarring. Mountains teeming with towering trees followed by winding cutouts of nothing but stumps. This is what modernday clearcutting looks like. Giant machines handle massive trees like matchsticks. This land has never been logged. No. It hasnt. Reporter this is a place where none of that has happened. A socalled old growth forest. We only have about 15 of the forest that once grew trees like this that are left. Reporter areas like this were protected by the northwest forest plan which was signed in 1994. It impacted more than 24 million acres of federal land in oregon, california, and washington. Was the northwest forest plan a success or failure . From an environmental perspective, itsrnl land, time lapse of satellite images over northwest oregon give a sense of how common clearcutting still is. Lague says it has a lasting impact. Forests capture carbon, helping to cool the earth and slow Climate Change. Logging companies are required by law to replant new trees after theyre cut. It can take a decade or more before a young forest absorbs as much carbon as an older one. Not many people are willing to talk about the story or take us to places like this. Why do you do that . I think we as an industry have not done a good job historically of telling our story. Reporter todd payn is a member of seneca jones, a timber giant in oregon. Has the plan been a success or failure . Honestly speaking, i think it was a failure. Reporter payn e believes its choking growth and some say is leading to more wildfires because forests have been neglected. He took us to one of senecas expansive tree farms an hour and a half outside eugene where they operate on 50year cycles. This year next to us was clear cut about 55 years ago for the first time and then clear cut again three or four years ago. Three years ago, correct. Reporter why clear cut . Were mimicking what mother natures done for billions of years. Reporter this looks traumatic for a lot of people when they see Something Like this. I actually look at it quite different. I think its somewhat aesthetically pleasing. Reporter you think that lookss needically pleasing . I do, maybe its biased, but i look and see sustainability, rejuvenation. Reporter Timber Companies have traditionally used a practice called aerial spraying. Chemicals dropped via helicopter to kill any vegetation other than trees used for lumber. A lot of people are concerned about the spring. Well, i think people are not informed well on that subject. We use it once or twice in a 50year cycle. Reporter it ultimately flows somewhere, though. No, it doesnt. A lot of times this stuff doesnt flow off the landscape. The product will adhere to the vegetation that its targeted for and stay there. Reporter nancy webster, who lives up the coast in rockaway beach, oregon, is worried those chemicals seep into her drinking water. The fight between environmentalists and locking companies is not now logging companies is not new, but this seems like the newest chapter. Right. This affects the fish, the wildlife, and we are up against large corporations. And to even counter it, you need science and legal help, and its really difficult for small communities. Reporter today the situation may be reaching a critical point because the federal government wants to suspend a public review process which logging Companies Say needlessly ties them up in court. Should there be a public review procesclands . Well, we have professionals in place in our federal agency thats are managing these lands, an t let them do that work. Reporter in other words, he wants groups like oregon wild to stay away. The argument is from them that if theyre not able to log, people cant build homes. Yeah. No ones talking about shutting down logging. Were talking about what i feel are common sense changes that d that we all share. Reporter lague wants to see forests thinned, not clear cut. A far less invasive approach. She acknowledges it is more expensive and would produce less lumber. I think people do need to come to grips with the fact that the wood that they use to build houses or anything else comes from clearcutting forests in places like oregon. Reporter what youre saying is theres a price to pay for a better world. I think in order to make amends in some way that theres a price to pay for that. I think its worth it. The Global Demand for woods over the next ten years is expected to increase 33 . So the question is where that lumber comes from, if it comes from somewhere. The Timber Industry would argue that whatever impact their practices may have, its less what it is to use concrete or steel and the imprint that has globally as we go forwards. I would imagine less as in our skyscrapers here in new york its amazing when you look at it, its a compromise. Somewhere you got to find a Middle Grounds between the sides. The College Application process can be tricky for students and parents. It only gets harder for kids from lowincome families. Up next, well meet a student who reached for his dream schools and got in thanks in large part to the help he received from some committed volunteers. Thats coming up on cbs this morning saturday. [ laughter ] thats kevin victoria last spring showing ated to haard univer the recent colleges scd how far some will go to get into a top school, even crossing the line into criminality. For students like kevin victoria, the son of colombian immigrants, starting at stanford this week might have been more than he dared to dream if not for a unique Mentorship Program thats been lighting the way. Look at you. You look so happy. Oh, yeah. Reporter when it comes to blessings, kevin victoria counts every one. Oh, look at that. Yeah. Reporter his family, friends, and a future he cant stop smiling about. Thanks in part to a special nonprofit called latino Youth College access, also known as lyca. If you can put a price tag on what this program has done for you, what would it be . Priceless. They helped me so much. I keep thinking of ways to be able to show my gratitude and how happy i am. How theyve made me get to this point. Im so proud of you reporter Shirley Acevedo is the founder of the program which partners with local high schools that have 50 or more hispanic students, mostly low nick. The first low income. The first thing we did with our latino youth scholars is match them with trained volunteer college coaches. The coaches assist students with everything from building a college list to writing their College Essays to identifying scholarships for which to apply. Reporter which is exactly the kind of help kevin needed when applying to schools. Without it, his admission to stanford might not have been possible. Anybody out there who says, you know what, i did this a by myself, youre like nobody does that all by themselves. Unfortunately, some people dont have that luxury. I acknowledge the fact that im ad a disadvantage compared to not because i wasnt qualified to go to the school, not because i wasnt a competitive applicant, but because of the fact that i didnt know how to navigate the process. Reporter you needed that exposure. Exactly. Kevin is really an unusual kid. He is smart and energetic and confident. And a great sense of self that just wont quit. Reporter husband and wife coaches amy and Scott Silverstein helped make harvard a reality for kinch by assist kevin by assisting in the application process. We attack the common app essay. Ever being who he is what hes dreaming of is wrapped up in the essay. I was conceived reporter in his essay, kevin tells his story which began in colombia where he was born as a result of an affair and brought to there country when he was just 2 years old. What has your family sacrificed . They left their family behind. They went into a place that the language is unfamiliar to them. Thats ultimately the biggest sacrifice that you can kind of do for your children, being able to sacrifice everything that you know and everything that youre used to to give them a better opportunity and to maybe give them just a little bit of a leg up. Reporter for that reason, he tried his best in school and aimed for a brighter future. But to him, that meant a state school in new york. I never imagined myself applying to any schools above that because i thought it was too out of reach. Reporter yeah, way reach. Way reach. Reporter on both, what, financially and academically . Yeah. The major thing was financially. These children with the same level of potential and academic ability are not aware of what options exist for them. [ applause ] theyre afraid to aim high because they think that these institutions are not meant for them. Reporter kevin worked with the silversteins at least once a week for four to five hours at a time. That effort paid off. What colleges were you accepted to . I was stepped to stanford university, yale university, and harvard university. Reporter those are the only three colleges you applied to . Yep. Reporter are you kidding me . No cuny . I didnt apply to any others. No buffalo state . Nope. Reporter go big or go home. Yes. Reporter kevin is at stanford this fall on a full financial ride. So why did you choose stanford . There was just this feeling that i got while i was at stanford that kind of made me feel like that was the path that im supposed to go on. Reporter like youre garden you sowed the needs and now you have a bounty sowed the seeds, and now you have a basis point. This work is transformational, not only for the students that we serve but for their parents who have put all of their hopes and dreams in the potential of their child being the first in their family to go to college. Its transforming an entire life for generations to come. Lets face it, people with money can access a variety of resources for their kids.

But if you can do something that can help somebody else or, you know, help them get through something and maybe its that sisterhood thing. Sharing postpartum depression. Yes.

Former Vice President joe biden is firing back at President Trump this morning after mr. Trump reportedly pressed the ukrainian president to investigate bidens son. Biden is calling on there trump to release is calling on mr. Trump to release the transcript of the call in question immediately. The president was asked several times on friday to comment on the whistleblower complaints surrounding the call to the ukrainian president , but mr. Trump stopped short of providing specifics about the call. I dont know the identity of the whistleblower. I hear its a partisan person. Meaning it comes out from another party. But i dont have any idea. But i can say that it was a totally appropriate conversation. The white house held up military aid to ukraine over the summer. Democrats are investigating whether the president was using that aid to pressure ukraine to investigate the bideens. So far, there is no troop that occurred. Iran is lashing out at tighter economic sanctions being leveled by the u. S. It is also vowing to destroy anyone who takes action against tehran for the attacks on sawy oil fields. The u. S. Blames iran for striking at those key Oil Facilities last week. Iran denies any involvement. The new sanctions come as the white house is sending more troops to saudi arabia and to the neighboring united arab emirates. Millions of people around the world marched in what is being called the largest climate protest ever. Teens organized walkouts in more than 150 countries friday. Many were inspired by the fridays for future campaign led by 16yearold swedish activist greta thunberg. Some say theyre planning walkouts every friday until elected leaders make changes to protect the environment. This monday marks the beginning of the United Nations Climate Summit here in new york. According to recent polling by cbs news, 56 of americans said Climate Change is something that needs to be addressed now. Climate change is the sole focus of a special issue by Time Magazine that is out now. This morning we are joined by justin worland, senior climate correspondent at time. Good morning. Good morning. So you write an article about the political implications of Climate Change in iowa is specifically. Obviously key in the primaries. How is this year different than other election years when it comes to Climate Change . Yeah. I spent a good amount of time in iowa talking to voters, talking to people about how theyve been feeling the effects of Climate Change right now, have been feeling the effects of extreme weather. I used line if you throw a dart at a map of iowa, youre likely to hit a place thats had flooding. You know, that leaves an impression for voters, particularly democratic voters who are who understand the science of Climate Change. Theyve been impacted more recently, so now its more top of mind. Exactly. Are certain candidates talking about it more than others . Certainly there are some talking about it a lot. Jay inslee was in the race, he devoted his entire campaign to it. But each candidates is really grappling with how theyre going to speak about it. One thing i found really interesting, hearing Elizabeth Warren talk about Climate Change, she talks about it from the perspective of, you know, corporations and how do we get influence out so that we can deal with this this issue. And then others will talk about it, you know, areas will talk about Kamala Harris will talk about it from the perspective of suing polluters, you know, something that she brings experience from as a former attorney general. I wanted to talk about in youth movement. If you look throughout history, certainly with the civil rights movement, it was ignited by children, children. Absolutely. How can this youth enthusiasm spurned by greta, the 16yearold from sweden, push and sustain itself . Yeah. Thats a good question. I mean, i think whats really interesting to me is, one, obviously theyre an inspiration to everyone. I think for then datoday basis, this is something that is a real bright spot when the news can often be very grim. But what i think is also importance is they send a very important is they send a very big signal to corporations, to government officials who might be lagging in their response, that things need to change. That future generations are not going to allow the same business as usual approach. And i think thats going to sustain itself. It come goes to jeffs story and the question of whether or not this generation will pay for the sustainability of this planet. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that generation will be on the they will experience the things that generations past have the repercussions exactly. Of what weve done to our climate. It wont be cheap is my point. No. Theres the politics of it and the solution. This issue, which goes around the globe, the Time Magazine issue, talks about six things that may happen over the next 30 years or they think need to happen over the next 30 years. Phase out natural gas and coal, grow renewables, chart a path on nuclear, remove carbon from the atmosphere which is what he talked about in the piece support trees and the growth of trees, andak eney use more efficient. You really went all around the world for this issue, including this concept of rewilding we see, as well. Absolutely. I mean, one thing that i think, you know, planting trees can sound very simple or, you know, dealing with nature can sounds very simple. Its really at the heart of this. There was a paper in the journal science this year that found that if we planted trees in an area the size of the u. S. And china, which sounds like a lot buts an area thats ripe for trees growing, we could eliminate twothirds of the emissions that weve that weve had since the industrial revolution. Thats a big thing that will not happen that way, but it has a change potential. Okay, justin worland. Thank you so much for being here. Thank you. 40 years ago, americas pursuit of the a cleaner Energy Alternative turned into one of the countrys most frightening moments. First step in a nuclear nightmare. As far as we know this hour, no worse than that. An accident at the three Mile Island Nuclear reactor in 1979 caused a partial meltdown. The worst commercial Nuclear Power accident in u. S. History. Forced tens of thousands of people to evacuate. It stunted the growth of a nuclear industry. No Nuclear Plant proposed in the u. S. After the accident has been successfully completed. On friday, the plants owner eexelon corporation, shut it down officially. It had been losing money as less expensive forms of electricity have become available. It will take 60 years and at least 1 billion to fully dismantle the plant. As we just mentioned, the talk is on again to find those if there are safer alternatives in nuclear energy. Well right now, it is about seven minutes after the hour. Heres a look at the weather for the weekend. The Campaign Speech may be all well and good on the campaign trail, but these days when candidates really want to connect with voters, they take a picture.

Several hundred people were in attendance last night in iowa as ten Democratic Candidates for president discussed ltq ctes arg for ways to connect with voters. And that includes leaving supporters with a lasting memory of their encounter with a potential future president of the United States. Political reporter caitlin huey burnes is here with more. Good morning. Good morning. The most popular element of the campaign trail these days isnt necessarily a policy proposal or a stump speech, its the selfie line. Its a new way for voters to connect with candidates, putting a new spin on retail politics. Now, some of the photos youre about to see dont always technically fit the definition of a selfie. Heres a snapshot from the modern campaign. They came hello, new york reporter they saw thank you, thank you. Reporter they selfied. Thank you for being here. Reporter in the race for the white house, socalled selfie lines have become a key feature of Campaign Events. With voters willing to wait hours to take a photo with a candidate. We waited in line, and it was worth it. Reporter campaigns have professionalized the picturetaking experience and made it central to their Digital Strategy to. The real measure of democracy more than 50,000 selfies. [ cheers ] reporter photo lines are such a priority for Elizabeth Warrens campaign that she even changes into sneakers to prepare. Im going to field a grassroots movement. Smalldollar donations, volunteers, and selfie lines. Reporter warrens selfie line is a finetuned operation. Theres a person in every task. Somebody to take the phone from you, hands it off to the person to the person who takes the picture while youre with liz. Reporter they say a picture is worth a thousand words. For these campaigns, they are actually worth a thousand impressions. Photo lines act as a Mass Marketing tool. A photo taken is a photo shared, serving as free Digital Advertising for candidates. We live in a time of social media. There is a multiplier effect. Anybody who gets a selfie with you will often post it on line. Their friends will see that, as well. It helps to generate, you know, some virtuousvirality. Reporter the shared photos amount to major savings for the campaigns. All while generating grassroots momentum. Are you going to share this photo . Everywhere. Reporter the selfie lines have become such a key feature of some of these Campaign Events that the candidates build in extra time to make sure they can take a picture with everybody who comes to see them. It is one of the most important and meaningful interactions that i have at any of these events. I usually have my team members with me. Ill say, okay, we have to follow up with this person. Reporter some candidates otve developed their own selfie the first thing to know is how to hack into any phone. And so most people dont know that, they put the code in, take a long time. By taking it myself, i can just swipe with one finger and be at your camera. Reporter joe biden often makes emotional connections with people on the photo line. People want to be reassured. People are an awful lot of people ask me personal things. Theyre frightened about their circumstance or they suffered a serious loss. Reporter have there been an instance in the selfie line that you sympathized with someone . Oh, god, more than one. What do you say to a woman who says i lost my child, and if we had decent chemical that would not have been the case. That moves you to the core. Reporter the selfie lines also influence policy proposals. Is there a plan that was specifically directly influenced by your conversations on the selfie line . Yes. In fact, i distinctly remember meeting a woman in the selfie line who said, why dont you commit that your secretary of education will be someone who taught in public school. I thought about that, i looked and thought, youre on. Reporter and sometimes they even bring competitors together as friends. Now Elizabeth Warren held a fourhourlong selfie line earlier this week. The campaign tells me they are now up to 60,000 selfies, showing no signs of slowing down any time soon. In fact, our own ed okeefe spotted the senator at the airport this week. Both on their way to iowa. Look what we have here. A selfie line. Impromp impromptu, forming at the airports. This is something that were going to continue to say for a long time. Its a way to butter up and warm up, you know. Its a personal interaction. It is. A moment that you have maybe it used to be a handshake in the handshake line. And its grown into that moment where maybe you connect. You still have to find out how your candidate has a stands on which issues, but still, its your moment to connect. Weve talked to so many voters coming off the selfie lines the past few months. And the chance to really meet someone in person and the intimate reaction, they take a lot away from. Theyre also able to talk to these candidates. Elizabeth warren says that she gets notes passed to her all the time and reads them. Other candidates say they you know, really take away a lot from the conversations. It is so good to have you here. Thank you. I know youve been traveling like crazy and ed and the rest of our team. We appreciate it. Thank you so much. Long roads ahead. Not even to november havent really started. Sean doolittles job on the baseball field is to protect his teams lead.

While playing in october is the goal of every ball player, nationals pitcher Sean Doolittle has another passion that hes pursuing. Hes not only an advocates for reading an advocate for reading for people of all ages, he hasances interest in where you has an interest in where you buy your books. Theres endless possibilities. You could go so many different directions. Reporter for Sean Doolittle, a trip to the book store is a sensory experience. Theres some being holding it reporter and reading smells cool. Its evolved over time. You know, ive had other hobbies, had others things i tried, video games, watching movies, you know. I love my job, but it can be a little stressful at times. And reading has become a really healthy escape. The doctor is in reporter this is his job. Swing and a miss reporter Sean Doolittle is a Major League Pitcher for the Washington Nationals. A dream come true. With it comes an inconsistent schedule and plenty of pressure. You remember which came first, your love of books or love for baseball . Baseball came before a lot of things in my life. I played i played all sports growing up. Baseball was always my favorite, though. Reporter but books were always there. With teachers in his family, an emphasis was put on the importance of reading and education. I could never go to practice or to a game unless id finished my homework. Reporter do you remember a first book as a kid where it just opened your eyes and your imagination, and you remember thinking i need more of this . Goosebumps and sports books. Like i loved reading those kind of books. Then there were books that i had to read for school that i wasnt super excited about reading. To this day im going back and reading some of the books i was probably supposed to have read in high school. Reporter me, too, yes i just read i just finished lord of the flies. I love it. It was awesome. When i was in 10th great dtenth wasnt that psyched about it. Reporter Sean Doolittles reignited passion for books has enhanced more than justice his own personal library. You are on a mission right now it seems like to help independent book stores out. Is that an accurate description . Yeah. I think so. Its certainly developed into that. Reporter back in april, he began posting on social media about what he was reading and the independent book stores he shopped in during each major league stop. He started with new yorks Mcnally Jackson book store in soho. To me its just so cool the way that these book stores create this this inviting, inclusive space. Reporter its a Communities Center really. It is. Its a lot more than a book store. You know, and early on, i didnt think of it in my head as a way to save local bookstores. This was just an adventure. Reporter doolittles adventure was a hit on social media. His passion and platform combined to raise the profile of not just the shops where he snapped pictures but others like them across the country. And that exposure says independent bookstore owner christine anaraty is priceless. What is it like owning a local bookstore in the year 20ear 201 . Online shopping has affected our entire world. I think that, you know, we serve a purpose in our communities that makes us a little different than a lot of other retail stores. You know, thats why somebody like sean whos shining a spotlight on books and how important they are will always be a great thing. Reporter mark pearson agrees. Hes cofounder and ceo of libro f. M. That allows you to downloads an audio book and splits the proceeds with a local bookstore of your choice. Like this one in new jersey. One of about 800 stores affiliated with libro f. M. We are doubling every year. And when Sean Doolittle sent his tweet out, we had a record day. When he says that its tool to buy audio books and books from your local bookstore, it sends the message that books and bookstores matter, and where you buy them makes a difference. By giving your money to them, you keep that going. You keep reading alive in the community. Reporter that is the real win. Theres a lot of really kind of alarming statistics when it comes to littleracy rates and kids literacy rates and kids in the United States. Over half of the kids in the fourth grade read below basic level. Thats a crucial time for them because theres so many indicators about where theyre at in fourth grade can determine where they go in their, you know, education level down the road. Reporter and he says where they simply go in life. Just look at him. Its a little surreal. This started out as something that i was doing just because it was a hobby that i enjoyed. But its been a really rewarding experience. If you can get kids excited about reading, maybe that can open up a whole other world for them. I know people say athletes should stick to sports. Its a really good thing Sean Doolittle isnt sticking to sports. I love seeing him in his glasses with his jersey on opening up he gives a lot of credit to his wife who has a couple of mast masters degreesreading so much thought maybe ill do that instead of the video games. It sort of helped him get back into books again. Wonderful. Yeah. Thank you. Thank you, sean. Thats right. Dr. Doolittle. There you go.

I dont think thats necessary. If you can help somebody else or, you know, help them get through something, and i maybe its that sisterhood thing. Sharing postpartum depression. Yes. I was the first female to actually celebrity to actually talk about it. And i dont know, i just i felt that theres so much shame around things when really its just the Human Experience that we all go through. I dont care if youre a celebrity or if youre a Makeup Artist or whatever you do for a living we all go through this thing called life. The juul reco. They took 12. 8 billion from big tobacco.
