All cbs cares today, Donald Trumps physician said the republican candidate would be, and this is a quote, the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency. He called trumps Blood Pressure of 110 65 astonishingly excellent, but even that trumpian hyperbole couldnt help with other numbers today that arent so healthy. Seven weeks before the caucuses, trump trails ted cruz in iowa by ten points. Heres major garrett. Were doing really well. Iowas been amazing. Reporter donald trump is no longer winning in iowa. Register Bloomberg Politics poll is one of two in the last week to show ted cruz on top. The third poll out today has trump and cruz tied. Faced with adversity, trump is now attacking cruz. I dont think he has the right temperament. I dont think hes got the right judgment. Reporter trump mocked cruzs frequent clashes with gop leaders, most memorably when he triggered the 2013 Government Shutdown in a futile attempt to end obamacare. You look at the way hes dealt with the senate, where he goes in there like, frankly like a little bit of a maniac. Youre never going to get things done that way. Reporter cruz considers the shutdown a demonstration of conservative zeal among gop establishment timidity, but cruz, ever wary of aggravating trump supporters, did not argue the point. Instead he posted this throwback video of the movie flashdance, dedicated, cruz said, to maniacs trump and cruzs battle in iowa has come at the expense of former leader ben carson. He told an iowa radio show hes fallen behind as terrorism has become a top campaign issue. Reporter tomorrow nights prime time debate will give carson a chance to turn the tide on foreign policy. Marco rubio, whose november rise in the polls, has suddenly stalled, is also in need of fresh momentum. Scott, rubio is still best positioned as the republican alternative should voters want one, to trump, cruz and carson. Major garrett not in venice but in vegas. Major, thanks very much. Today the army said that Bowe Bergdahl will be courtmartialed for desertion troops. Bergdahl was a taliban prisoner for five years after he walked away from his post in afghanistan. He was swapped last year for five prisoners at guantanamo. An army hearing officer had recommended no jail time, but bergdahl now, if convicted, could face up to life in prison. It was three years ago today that a gunman opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary School in newtown, connecticut, killing 20 first graders and six adults. Vice President Biden tweeted, since that nightmare, an estimated 555 children have been killed by guns in america. It is shameful that congress has not acted. As the nation continues to debate gun laws and access to Mental Health care, newtown parents are reminding us of the urgency. And heres michelle miller. 20 beautiful children. Reporter when the numbers became names charlotte, daniel. Reporter and the names became faces, suddenly they were americas children. 20 first graders gunned down in their classrooms along with their teachers. Its always 12 14. It is always the last day that they went to school. Thats never going to change. Reporter but something had to change for nicole hockly, who lost her sixyearold son dylan. This is about not accepting this. We cant just passively sit back and say, these shootings happen. Reporter together with other newtown parents, she helped found sandy hook promise, a group working to prevent gun violence. I can still feel him. I can smell him. I can hear his little voice. Reporter mark barden also lost his sixyearold son daniel. And signals. There are opportunities to intervene to stop that continuum before it leads to tragedy. Reporter together they travel the country teaching others how to respond to those signs. They call it the Say Something campaign. If you see someone at risk, Say Something. That training worked recently in cincinnati when a student reported someone plotting an attack. The whole thing was stopped and diffused. Reporter did the hairs. Oh, yeah. I burst into tears. It was overwhelming. To actually know we potentially saved lives, that means something. Reporter and so does sweeping Gun Legislation they helped pass in connecticut two years ago. It expands the ban on assault weapons and limits the number of rounds per magazine. But the campaign has had its setbacks. With the defeat of a bill two years ago that would have closed loopholes in background checks a lot of people say, if it didnt happen with newtown, when will it happen . It is happening. Sandy hook was the start. It was a catalyst for change. Its too late for us, but theres a lot of other positive change for this country that will come. Reporter change that will keep a promise to the children of sandy hook. Michelle miller, cbs news, new york. We have been bringing you a variety of opinions on how to curb gun violence, from gun rights to gun control. Tonight we continue our series, voices against violence. Im tom farley, the former Health Commissioner for new york city, and now the chief executive officer for an Organization Called the public good projects. Let me put the problem of gun violence into perspective. Think of the most horrific Mass Shootings in american history. Virginia tech, 32 people killed, and we lose that many people to gun violence every day in america. On an average day in america, 31 people are killed with gun homicides, and 58 people shoot themselves with guns. This isnt just a Law Enforcement problem, its a Public Health problem. Homicides and suicides are the numbertwo and numberthree causes of death in young people and teenagers in america today. Those people arent being killed with viruses. Theyre being killed for the most part by bullets. The gun is, after all a machine, a mechanical object that causes injuries, like a car, and car crash deaths in this country have dropped by more than half since 1980 by a Public Health approach with safer highways and safer car design. We can take a Public Health approach to design safer guns and put in other Public Health policies to reduce gun deaths, as well. We need a much more thorough process for background checks. You can undergo a more thorough vetting if you want to adopt a cat from a shelter than to get a gun. Guns in america, we can prevent an awful lot of those shootings. Former new york city Health Commissioner tom farley. If a drone is on your shopping list, theres something you need to do before it takes off. The cbs overnight news will be right back.

So today, the federal government said theyll have to be transportation correspondent kris van cleave shows us how that will work. Reporter when the faa registration website goes live next monday, current drone owners will have two months to register. Newly purchased devices will have to be registered before taking flight. I think this does add a level of seriousness to the operation of the drone. Reporter former faa assistant administrator scott brenner. Do they need to have a Drone Registration Program . I think the faa was struggling with how do we educate new users, and by creating this registry, now we have a direct link to every user, which will allow us to do a tremendous amount of education. Reporter the faa hopes that education will prevent more close calls in the air. A new report identified 158 incidents in the last two years where a drone came within 200 feet of another aircraft. 28 times the pilot had to take evasive maneuvers. There has never been a confirmed collision between a drone and the new Registration System will require drone owners to give their name, Mailing Address and email and pay a 5 fee. I think its going to create a deterrent. I think some will not want to pay that fee. Reporter lawyer Michael Drobac works with the drone industry, which has been supportive of a Registration System. Does having the Registration System make the skies safer, do you think . Do i think those who would act in an inappropriate manner, do i think they will register . Probably not. Reporter the faa will waive that 5 fee for the first 30 days. Scott, all operators will be given an Identification Number that has to be displayed on their drones. Kris van cleave, thanks very much.

Yes, if you dont know how to speak english, but when you are playing, you understand everything. Reporter with music there is no language barrier. Dean reynolds, cbs news, chicago. News for this tuesday. For some of you, the news continues. For others, check back with us just a little bit later for the morning news and of course, cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im don dahler. With the holidays right around the corner, president obama is trying to assure americans that their celebrations will be safe. One week afer his Oval Office Address on terrorism, the president made the rounds of his security agencies. At the pentagon, mr. Obama insisted u. S. Intelligence has uncovered no credible threat of an attack over the next few weeks, and he said the u. S. Military is taking the fight to the Islamic State in both iraq and syria. This fall, even before the revolting attacks in paris and san bernardino, i ordered new against isil. These actions, including more firepower and special Operations Forces are well under way. This continues to be a difficult fight. As i said before, isil is dug in, including in urban areas and hide behind civilians, using defenseless men, women, and children as human shields. Even as were relentless, we have to be smart, targeting isil surgically, with precision. At the same time, our partners on the ground are rooting isil out town by town, neighborhood by neighborhood, block by block. That is what this campaign is doing. We are hitting isil harder than ever. Coalition aircraft, our fighters, bombers, and drones have been increasing the pace of their strikes. Nearly 9,000 as of today. Last month in november, we dropped more bombs on isil targets than any other month were also taking out isil leaders, demanders, and killers one by one. Going after them from their strongholds in downtown raqqah to libya, where we took out the isil leader there. The point is, isil leaders cannot hide, and our next message to them is simple you are next. Every day, we destroy as well more of isils forces, their fighting positions, bunkers, staging areas, heavy weapons, bomb making factories, compounds and training camps. Many places isil has lost its freedom of maneuver, because they know if they mass their forces, we will wipe them out. In fact, since this summer, isil has not had a single successful major offensive operation on the ground in either syria or iraq. In recent weeks, weve unleashed a new wave of strikes on their lifeline, their oil infrastructure, destroying hundreds of their tanker trucks, wells, and refineries. And were going to keep on hammering those. Territory in iraq. Isil had already lost across kircut province and tikrit. More recently, isil lost at sinjar and baiji, where its oil refinery. We saw a daring raid supported by our special forces which rescued dozens of prisoners from isil, which Master Sergeant Joshua Wheeler made the ultimate sacrifice. So far isil has lost about 40 of the Populated Areas it once controlled in iraq. And it will lose more. Iraqi forces are now fighting their way deeper into ramadi. Theyre working to encircle fallujah and cut off supply routes into mosul. Again, these are urban areas where isil is entrenched. Our partners on the ground face a tough tight ahead, and were going to continue to back them up with the support they need to ultimately clear isil from iraq. The president s strategy is in northern iraq. Although isis still controls vast territory, their offensive to overrun the kurds has been stopped in its tracks outside mosul. Charlie dagata took a news crew there. Reporter in ways it was a routine assignment. Head out to the front lines and see how Kurdish Peshmerga forces are holding up against isis. But we got to within a half mile of isis territory and man, did we witness how deadly and determined this enemy can be. Colonel badal bandi and his forces have been fighting to hold this line outside of mosul for more than a year. How often does isis attack you . Sometimes three or four nights in a row. Until he showed us where three suicide car bombers tried to charge their outpost at dawn. His soldiers were able to kill the drivers before they detonated their explosives. But two car bombs remained there not more than 50 yards away posing a deadly threat to the troops. Here on the front line, the bomb squad is a. 50caliber gunner. He fired rounds into one vehicle until it went up in a plume of smoke. He then opened up on the car much closer to us. We watched from a bunker hole until finally, a direct hit. [ explosion ] that noise you can hear is debris raining down on top of us. Shrapnel from the bomb and twisted remains of the week blown sky high after the explosion. Everybodys ears were ringing. But the next sound was laughter. Its a happier ending when car bombs blow up on the other side we are up close to one of those huge car bombs, you realize how destructive they can be in civilian areas and why they are the most feared isis weapon on the battlefield. Attacks like these are happening every day. Another component of the u. S. Strategy is to cut off funding for the Islamic State. The Treasury Department says isis makes about 40 million a month, just selling oil. So thats become a prime target. Elizabeth palmer reports. Reporter u. S. And Coalition Planes have now begun to bomb tankers full of oil sold by isis in syria. Part of an effort to cut off an estimated 40 million a month the group makes from petroleum sales. And in the kin cynical economics of war, some of that oil even goes to president assads government, isis sworn enemy. Most of the oil fields in syria are in isis controlled territory. Once pumped, its moved by buyers in regime controlled syria, or smuggled over the border in iraq and turkey. The coalition began bombing isis refineries last year and the russians have now joined in, choosing oil related bombing targets. That may have made a dent in isis ability to supply oil clean enough to be used, but it didnt stop it. Matthew phillips is with bloomberg. We overestimated really the damage that we did, the longterm damage and underestimated their ability to kind of adapt to that. Reporter syrian locals simply set up crude refineries, basically cooking the oil in pits in the desert before selling it on to traders who get it to market. Attacks on what are isis linked operations like this will inevitably kill innocent civilians who are simply working in it to survive. One more thought while cutting to collapse. Solid numbers are hard to come by. The best estimates say isis is making twice as much money on widespread, what they call taxes on every person in business living under their control.

The Republican Party holds round five in its series of president ial debates tonight. This one in las vegas. Donald trump will be front and center with ben carson on his right and ted cruz on his left. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was a late add. A Des Moines Register poll of likely iowa caucus goers shows cruz leading by ten points with just seven weeks to go before the caucuses. Nancy cordes reports. Reporter this is the second poll in less than a week to show cruz leading the gop field in iowa. The Trump Campaign trashed the poll, while trump himself chose to trash cruz, saying hes unfit to be president. Reporter donald trump had this message for gop leaders who might think his support in iowa is waning. I dont go down, i go up. My whole life has been about winning. Im going to win. Reporter and he went after his sometimes ally ted cruz after promising for weeks he wouldnt. You look how hes dealt with the senate where he goes in there like a maniac. Reporter on twitter, cruz brushed off the comments. Maniac posting a link to this 1980s movie clip for the song maniac. Cruz refrained from attacking trump, whose supporters he would like to win over. I like donald trump. A lot of our friends here have encouraged me to criticize and attack donald trump. Im not interested in doing so. Reporter nationwide, the real estate mogul still has a big lead, beating cruz by nearly 20 points in the latest cbs still, the texas senators outspoken opposition to obamacare and his willingness to take on both sides of the washington establishment resonates with iowa conservatives. The way Republican Leadership punishes anyone who stands up to the cartel is they engage in public flagellation. Reporter that approach has made him unpopular with leaders in his own party. Who worry that he could be just as polarizing of a nominee as trump. Brian walsh worked to elect republicans to the senate in 2010 and 2012. He would be equally problematic. Reporter why . Again, going back to if were going to win in 2016, we need to expand the electorate. We need more females and hispanics. Instead of learning those lessons, you have candidates like cruz and trump who are doing the opposite. Meanwhile, trumps comments on banning muslims from entering the United States is becoming a drag to his business interests overseas. From the site of the trump hotel in washington. Reporter donald trump has plastering his name around the world from washington, d. C. To istanbul, people have bought into the trump brand as a symbol of luxury and success. T with each new controversy, more and more Business Partners are severing ties. These twisting high rises in turkey bear the name of donald trump. Some who work inside trump towers in istanbul say the buildings namesake has given them reason to quit their jobs. This 20yearold Sales Consultant said trump should close the building. There are muslim people working here. This is affecting me in an unfavorable way. This week, a major middle east retailer, with 190 department stores, stopped selling the trump home decor brand. In stanford, connecticut some in the Muslim Community are calling on the developer to strike trumps name from this high rise. And at this trump residence in name on the building. Considering the bigotry that comes out of his mouth sometimes. Reporter gordon gray with the u. S. Arab chamber of commerce said he cant calculate the damage to trumps reputation in the muslim world. He gets the nomination, that prolongs his exposure in the public eye. Then of course if hes e elected president , the question is what policies is he going to implement . If some of the businesses are affected, its not important to me. Reporter since he declared his candidacy, trumps rhetoric may have had a cost. After his cost about mexican immigrants, more than a Dozen Companies from macys to the pga and nascar severed ties. Those are small in his empire compared to his real estate fortune. He has several projects in the muslim world. Randall lane is an editor at forbes magazine. Consequences exactly, because its not just deals he may or may not lose, its deals that you dont know he may or may not have gotten. So thats always the big question mark out there. Reporter trumps own Financial Disclosures dont break down the dollar amount of each investment, but forbes estimates that last year trump brought in about 128 million in branding and licensing fees. In other news tonight, dog flu. Theres a new strain threatening our fourlegged friends this year, along with a new vaccine to fight it. But as molly hall reports, the shots are expensive and may not be necessary. Reporter veterinarian katie gribbs says a new strain of canine flu that started in chicago last spring is spreading fast and has proven deadly for some dogs. This type of the virus progresses so quickly, it moves into the lungs, causing severe pneumonia. Reporter the United States conditionally approved a new vaccine to address the epidemic. Its being shipped to veterinarians right now. Dr. Douglas aspros, former president of the american veterinary association. Its a totally novel virus. Dogs dont have u. S. Dogs dont have any historical experience with this virus. Therefore, they have no protective cross reaction with any other antibodies that theyve formed in the past. Reporter since the epidemic began, more than 1500 dogs became ill in a few months. At least eight died from secondary infections. The strain has now spread across the country. The new strain is different from the common dog flu, which already has an effective vaccine available. In some cases, two vaccinations might be necessary. The old shot can cost up to 90 for two rounds. The vaccine for the new strain costs double that. If your dog is in close frequently, then its extremely important to be thinking about and talking to your vet about doing this vaccine series. Reporter veterinarians dont know how effective the new vaccine will be. They hope down the road, a shot will be developed that covers both strains of flu. For now, check with your vet to see how common each flu is in your area. If your dog never leaves the yard, youre probably safe. The cbs overnight news will be right back.

There are flight flying, a inging autonomous drones, and plenty of robots. And another with a soft enough grip to handle an egg. Some of the most recent breakthroughs, however, are happening here at the universitys Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence lab. Where this simple looking box applies a complex set of algorithms. To do something once limited to science fiction. This shows the ability if tracking people through walls. Reporter dina is the professor leading the project, dubbed emerald. Demonstrating a Wireless Technology that captures motion in realtime and regardless of obstruction. This red hot is chen moving. Reporter so hes not wearing anything special . Nothing. Reporter its just picking up his movement through the wall . No cell phone, no sen fors. Its purely based on how the signal reflects off our body. Reporter what was the inception for this . We work on wireless networks. The question is, can we use this for purposes other than communication . Can you sense the environment with it . Reporter the wireless signals not only detect his position in the room, but his el vision from the floor. You want to see the red dot fall . Reporter yeah, lets see the red dot fall. Researchers hope it can protect seniors at risk for falling. A problem that sends an estimated 2. 5 million elderly americans to hospitals each year when it detects a fall, it sends an s. O. S. Message to the caregiver. Reporter thats just scratching the surface of emeralds capabilities. With chen seated, it hones in on his vitals. Respiration and heart rate are read without wires. Being able to get the heart rate, wow, its that sensitive. Reporter and its not in any way as dangerous as say constant exposure to xrays would be . No, not at all. I tell people all the time, the technology is the same carrier as wifi. Its actually 10,000 times or more lower power than wifi. So if youre not worried about wifi in your home, you shouldnt be worried about this. Are there any privacy concerns about this, like maybe where you are in the house . Basically like with any new technology, it comes with a challenge. I think as society discovers new technologies, there are rulings and laws a person has to abide by. If you look at that red dot over there reporter after more than three years, the m. I. T. Team demonstrated their work for the president last summer. What was his reaction to this . So i think when he saw the breathing and heart rate, he said, wow. That potentially has applications for baby monitors. Reporter the goal now is to take it to peoples homes within the next year. You and your partners have this great invention that has huge promise, do you stay a professor or become a businesswoman . Is there a reason not to be both . Reporter is there enough hours in the day to be both . I dont even track holidays. I dont know that there is a holiday. I come to the lab and my students say oh, yeah, its a holiday today. So i think there are plenty of hours as long as a person is interested in what they are doing. And having a great team like i have here. They also point out that First Responders could benefit a great deal by knowing exactly where people are in life threatening situations. Another wifi solution shes exploring is a way to charge smartphones without having to plug them in. We like her. I like that she kind of told you, yeah, she can do it. I can be both. I just ask the questions. And i think its good seeing through the wall, because i was concerned that you could physically see like if someone was Walking Around naked. Bhu no, all you see is the dots. Its like sonar. And do with that information what you will. Got to go. [ laughter ] this is new information for me. You know what . The news is back in the morning. What can we say . What can you say . The cbs overnight news will be right back. When the engines failed on the plane i was flying, i knew what to do to save my passengers.

Narrator donate to goodwill where your Donations Help Fund wisconsin has a state pastry called the kringle, and like chris kringle, its a big hit at christmas time. Vinita nair went for a taste. Reporter in racine, wisconsin, the holidays are all about the kringle. Theres certain skill involved in making the wisconsin state pastry. Good lord, thats a lot of dough. It takes lots of this. To make the dough flaky. Then you have to do this, again and again, to make the 36 layers. Does everybody do this much by hand . As far as i know. Now nobody at all does. Reporter for four generations, bensons bakery has been mastering the technique. You can see the layers. Reporter when the benson family opened its bakery 81 years ago, they followed the danish tradition of a pretzel shaped pastry. Its popularity quickly earned racine the nickname kringleville. Complete with a kringle queen and kringle inspired polka. Originally the danish pastry had an almond filling with raisins. Now ben, jr. And his son, ben iii, make close to 30 flavors. My grandpa, until he died, would say, just keep the quality and youll be here forever. Im still here. Reporter not far from bensons is this danish bakery, family run since 1949. That looks good. Here. Reporter owner eric olson took us on a tour of his 39,000 square foot facility, where machines have mastered the delicate layers and folds. Daily, they make 5,000 to 7,000 kringles. During the holidays, they ship up to 20,000 in one day. In the 1950s, some of the bakers started shipping kringle as gifts. And that became very popular. So the word kind of spread. People come here because we have kringles. And were known for it. Reporter at larsons bakery, they combined techniques rolling the dough by machine. Then filling and forming their kringles by hand. Don hutchisons father bought the bakery in 1969, and he says a kringle from anywhere else just isnt the same. You know, its kind of like going to new york and having a new york bagel. You cant get a new york bagel anywhere else, because they put the time and the labor into and thats cbs overnight news for this tuesday. The commanderinchief tries again to reassure an anxious nation. We are fighting isil harder than ever. Cbs news is on the frontlines with the kurds, fighting the terror group on the ground. Also tonight, trailing in iowa, trump goes after frontrunner cruz. I dont think he has the right temperament. Controlling the soaring drone population. Owners will soon have to register. And the sounds of growing harmony between cuba and the United States. News. President obama revealed that the dozens of special operations commandos he ordered into syria are now on the ground and have begun to work with local forces fighting isis, or as he prefers to call the group, isil. This was the president at the pentagon. Were going after isil in downtown raqqah to libya, where we took out the isil leader there. The point is, isil leaders cannot hide, and our next message to them is simple you are next. Every day we destroy as well more of isils forces, their fighting positions, bunkers, and staging areas, their heavy weapons, bomb making factories, compounds and training catches. In many places isil has lost its freedom to maneuver, because they know if they mass their since this summer, isil has not had a single successful offensive operation on the ground in syria or iraq. Weve destroyed eded hundreds of their tankers and refineries. Isil also continues to lose territory in iraq. Isil had already lost across kircut province and in tikrit and lost at sinjar, losing a strategic highway. Isil lost at baiji with its oil refinery. We saw the raid supported by our special forces which Master Sergeant Sergeant Wheeler made the ultimate sacrifice. So far isil has lost about 40 of the Populated Areas it controlled in iraq and will lose more. Iraqi forces are now fighting to circle fallujah and cut off supply routes into mosul. Mr. Obama said he is accelerating the war in syria and iraq after isis bombed a russian jetliner, directed the attack in paris and inspired another in san bernardino. Tonight we have a rare look at what u. S. Forces are facing. Charlie dagata linked up with americas kurdish allies. His story begins in iraq. Reporter even when colonel badal bandi told us his forces face isis attacks every day, we didnt expect this would be one of them, until he showed us where three suicide car bombers tried to charge their outpost at dawn. His soldiers shot the drivers dead before they detonated their bombs, but the car bombs remained no more than 50 yards away. [ explosion ] squad is a. 50caliber gunner. The first went up in a plume of smoke. He then opened up on the car in the ditch, the one much closer to us. We watched until he finally made a direct hit. [ explosion ] the massive explosion blew shrapnel in every direction and filled the bunker with choking dust. That noise is debris from the bomb and wreckage from the car that came crashing down. Everybodys ears were ringing, but no one was hurt. Hours later, we crossed into syria where rebel commander colonel Talal Ali Selo gave us a grim picture of just how many Suicide Missions theyve seen. Can you give me an idea, how many have you had to face in the past month . 42 car and truck bombers, he four suicide bombers on foot. This week three car bombs killed 28 people. The colonel told us the town had run out of sugar, so to get past checkpoints, isis hid the bombs in trucks delivering sugar. You went to the funeral today. What are people there telling you . They want revenge for the dead, he told us, and they want us to make sure this doesnt happen again. The colonel told us although they stopped most attacks, scott, its hard to stop them all because isis is constantly changing tactics. They never know when theyre going to strike, and they seem to have an unlimited supply of suicide bombers. Charlie dagata on the battlefield, thanks. Theres also apparently an unlimited supply of followers coming to the west. So today the white house is reviewing how immigrants are screened. One of the terrorists who killed two years ago of her desire for jihad. Then she got an american visa. Jeff pegues has more. Reporter when Tashfeen Malik applied for a fiance visa in 2014, she had her name and face checked against terror watch lists, but whether she posted radical views on social media was not checked. Alberto fernandez until recently ran the state Departments Program to counter isis online. Nowadays every company that hires is looking through your social media. Yes. Reporter should the government be doing more . This is the crazy thing about this debate. You would think that people who are trying to come to the United States to live in the United States, a privilege that most people dont have, would actually have that scrutiny. Reporter the department of Homeland Security says it began three pilot programs in 2014 to examine whether screening social current laws and privacy protections. Today government officials dismissed allegations Homeland Security secretary jeh johnson delayed the implementation of new rules because of Public Relations concerns. A review of the policy is under way. Since the attack, some members of congress have been demanding changes to the visa screening system. New york senator charles schumer. And had they checked out Tashfeen Malik a little more, maybe she wouldnt have gotten a visa. Reporter even one of the countrys largest muslim organizations is not against increased social media scrutiny. Ibrahim cooper is with the council on American Islamic relations. Measures that target only one faith group, only one ethnic group or people from a Certain National origin, that raises concerns, and its also counterproductive to our nations security. Reporter last year there were more than 460,000 visas issued. Adding a layer of social media scrutiny could delay the process, hurting tourism and business. Jeff pegues in washington. Jeff, thanks. The cbs overnight news [ vocalizing ] [ buzzing ] [ tree crashes ] [ wind howling ] today, Donald Trumps physician said the republican candidate would be, and this is a quote, the healthiest individual ever elected to the presidency. He called trumps Blood Pressure of 110 65 astonishingly excellent, but even that trumpian hyperbole couldnt help with other numbers today that arent so healthy. Seven weeks before the caucuses, trump trails ted cruz in iowa by ten points. Heres major garrett. Were doing really well. Iowas been amazing. Reporter donald trump is no longer winning in iowa. Register Bloomberg Politics poll is one of two in the last week to show ted cruz on top. The third poll out today has trump and cruz tied. Faced with adversity, trump is now attacking cruz. I dont think he has the right temperament. I dont think hes got the right judgment. Reporter trump mocked cruzs frequent clashes with gop leaders, most memorably when he triggered the 2013 Government Shutdown in a futile attempt to end obamacare. You look at the way hes dealt with the senate, where he goes in there like, frankly like a little bit of a maniac. Youre never going to get things done that way. Reporter cruz considers the shutdown a demonstration of conservative zeal among gop establishment timidity, but cruz, ever wary of aggravating trump supporters, did not argue the point. Instead he posted this throwback video of the movie flashdance, everywhere. Trump and cruzs battle in iowa has come at the expense of former leader ben carson. He told an iowa radio show hes fallen behind as terrorism has become a top campaign issue. Reporter tomorrow nights prime time debate will give carson a chance to turn the tide on foreign policy. Marco rubio, whose november rise in the polls, has suddenly stalled, is also in need of fresh momentum. Scott, rubio is still best positioned as the republican alternative should voters want one, to trump, cruz and carson. Major garrett not in venice but in vegas. Major, thanks very much. Today the army said that courtmartialed for desertion and endangering his fellow troops. Bergdahl was a taliban prisoner for five years after he walked away from his post in afghanistan. He was swapped last year for five prisoners at guantanamo. An army hearing officer had recommended no jail time, but bergdahl now, if convicted, could face up to life in prison. It was three years ago today that a gunman opened fire at Sandy Hook Elementary School in newtown, connecticut, killing 20 first graders and six adults. Vice President Biden tweeted, since that nightmare, an estimated 555 children have been killed by guns in america. It is shameful that congress has not acted. As the nation continues to debate gun laws and access to Mental Health care, newtown parents are reminding us of the urgency. And heres michelle miller. 20 beautiful children. Reporter when the numbers became names charlotte, daniel. Reporter and the names became faces, suddenly they were americas children. 20 first graders gunned down in their classrooms along with their teachers. Its always 12 14. It is always the last day that they went to school. Thats never going to change. Reporter but something had to change for nicole hockly, who lost her sixyearold son dylan. This is about not accepting this. We cant just passively sit back and say, these shootings happen. Reporter together with other newtown parents, she helped found sandy hook promise, a group working to prevent gun violence. I can still feel him. I can smell him. I can hear his little voice. Reporter mark barden also lost his sixyearold son daniel. In almost every one of these and signals. There are opportunities to intervene to stop that continuum before it leads to tragedy. Reporter together they travel the country teaching others how to respond to those signs. They call it the Say Something campaign. If you see someone at risk, Say Something. That training worked recently in cincinnati when a student reported someone plotting an attack. The whole thing was stopped and diffused. Reporter did the hairs. Oh, yeah. I burst into tears. It was overwhelming. To actually know we potentially saved lives, that means something. Reporter and so does sweeping Gun Legislation they helped pass in connecticut two years ago. It expands the ban on assault weapons and limits the number of rounds per magazine. But the campaign has had its setbacks. With the defeat of a bill two years ago that would have closed loopholes in background checks for gun buyers. A lot of people say, if it will it happen . It is happening. Sandy hook was the start. It was a catalyst for change. Its too late for us, but theres a lot of other positive change for this country that will come. Reporter change that will keep a promise to the children of sandy hook. Michelle miller, cbs news, new york. We have been bringing you a variety of opinions on how to curb gun violence, from gun rights to gun control. Tonight we continue our series, voices against violence. Im tom farley, the former Health Commissioner for new york city, and now the chief executive officer for an Organization Called the public good projects. Let me put the problem of gun violence into perspective. Think of the most horrific mass newtown, 26 people killed, virginia tech, 32 people killed, and we lose that many people to gun violence every day in america. On an average day in america, 31 people are killed with gun homicides, and 58 people shoot themselves with guns. This isnt just a Law Enforcement problem, its a Public Health problem. Homicides and suicides are the numbertwo and numberthree causes of death in young people and teenagers in america today. Those people arent being killed with viruses. Theyre being killed for the most part by bullets. The gun is, after all a machine, a mechanical object that causes injuries, like a car, and car crash deaths in this country have dropped by more than half since 1980 by a Public Health approach with safer highways and safer car design. We can take a Public Health approach to design safer guns and put in other Public Health policies to reduce gun deaths, as well. We need a much more thorough process for background checks. You can undergo a more thorough vetting if you want to adopt a cat from a shelter than to get a gun. Guns in america, we can prevent an awful lot of those shootings. Former new york city Health Commissioner tom farley. If a drone is on your shopping list, theres something you need to do before weve been changing things up with ky love. Oh yeah.

The skies are getting crowded with drones. So today, the federal government said theyll have to be registered. Transportation correspondent that will work. Reporter when the f. A. A. Registration website goes live next monday, current drone owners will have two months to register. Newly purchased devices will have to be registered before taking flight. I think this does add a level of seriousness to the operation of the drone. Reporter former faa assistant administrator scott brenner. Do they need to have a Drone Registration Program . I think the faa was struggling with how do we educate new users, and by creating this registry, now we have a direct link to every user, which will allow us to do a tremendous amount of education. Reporter the faa hopes that education will prevent more close calls in the air. A new report identified 158 incidents in the last two years where a drone came within 200 feet of another aircraft. 28 times the pilot had to take evasive maneuvers. There has never been a confirmed collision between a drone and the new Registration System will require drone owners to give their name, Mailing Address and email and pay a 5 fee. I think some will not want to pay that fee. Reporter lawyer Michael Drobac works with the drone industry, which has been supportive of a Registration System. Does having the Registration System make the skies safer, do you think . Do i think those who would act in an inappropriate manner, do i think they will register . Probably not. Reporter the faa will waive that 5 fee for the first 30 days. Scott, all operators will be given an Identification Number that has to be displayed on their drones. Kris van cleave, thanks very much.

If you see something suspicious, today president obama said he is very interested in visiting cuba, but not until cubans are given more freedom. It was one year ago this week that the u. S. Began restoring diplomatic ties that were severed half a century ago. And Dean Reynolds tells us that has led to a musical breakthrough. Reporter for this ensemble of young, cuban jazz musicians, better relations with the United States sound like this. Performing for the first time on american soil at chicagos auditorium theater, 24yearold conductor ernesto lima says music. Well, the improvisation is freedom of the music. Reporter so improvisation is freedom. Yes, i think so. Reporter their concert was a year in the making, and the dream of the chicago jazz philharmonics artistic director orbert davis. We have to think about the people, the musicians, the culture. Music is everybodys and its what they value. If they can trust us with that, theyll trust us with other things. Reporter we first met davis and these students a year ago in havana. 21yearold wendi galvez has been playing violin since she was seven. Billie holiday, ella fitzgerald, those are my gods. Reporter wendi, ernesto and the rest of the students study music here, where the residue of jazz left over from america before the castro revolution still echoes through the dizzy gillespies 1947 manteca is one of the best examples of the two nations musical collaboration before fidel castro closed jazz halls and took over clubs like the famous tropicana.

Dean reynolds, cbs news, and thats the overnight news for this tuesday. For some of you, the news continues. For others, check back with us just a little bit later for the mong news and of course, cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im don dahler. With the holidays right around the corner, president obama is trying to assure americans that their celebration also be safe. Address on terrorism, the president made the rounds of his security agencies. At the pentagon, mr. Obama insisted u. S. Intelligence has uncovered no credible threat of an attack over the next few weeks, and he said the u. S. The Islamic State in both iraq and syria. This fall, even before the san bernardino, i ordered new actions to intensify our war against isil. These actions, including more firepower and special Operations Forces are well under way. This continues to be a difficult fight. As i said before, isil is dug in, including in urban areas and hide behind civilians, using defenseless men, women, and children as human shields. Even as were relentless, we have to be smart, targeting isil surgically, with precision. Our partners on the ground are rooting them out block by block. That is what this campaign is doing. We are hitting isil harder than ever. Coalition aircraft, our fighters, bombers, and drones have been increasing the pace of their strikes. Last month in november, we dropped more bombs on isil targets than any other month since this campaign started. Leaders one by one, going after them from their strongholds in we took out the isil leader there. The point is, isil leaders cannot hide, and our next message to them is simple you are next. Every day, we destroy as well more of isils forces, their fighting positions, bunkers, staging areas, heavy weapons, compounds and training camps. Many places isil has lost its freedom of maneuver, because they know if they mask their forces, we will wipe them out. In fact, since this summer, isil has not had a single successful major offensive operation on the ground in either syria or iraq. In recent weeks, weve unleashed a new wave of strikes on their lifeline, their oil infrastructure, destroying hundreds of their tanker trucks, wells, and refineries. And were going to keep on isil also continues to lose territory in iraq. Isil had already lost across kircut province and tikrit. More recently, isil lost at sinjar and baiji, where its oil refinery. We saw a daring raid supported by our special forces which rescued dozens of prisoners from isil, which Master Sergeant Joshua Wheeler made the ultimate sacrifice. So far isil has lost about 40 of the Populated Areas it once controlled in iraq. And it will lose more. Iraqi forces are now fighting their way deeper into ramadi. Theyre working to encircle fallujah and cut off supply routes into mosul. These are areas where isil is entrenched. Our partners on the ground face a tough tight ahead, and were going to continue to back them up with the support they need to the president s strategy is playing out on the front lines in northern iraq. Although isis still controls vast territory, their offensive to overrun the kurds has been stopped in its tracks outside mosul. Charlie dagata took a news crew there. Reporter in many ways it was a routine assignment. Head out to the front lines and see how Kurdish Peshmerga forces are holding up against isis. We got to within a half mile of isis territory and man, did we witness how deadly and determined this enemy can be. Reporter even when colonel badal bandi told us his forces face isis attacks every day, we didnt expect this would be one of them, until he showed us where three suicide car bombers tried to charge their outpost at his soldiers were able to kill the drivers before they detonated their sboifs. But two car bombs remained there not more than 50 yards away troops. Here on the front line, the bomb squad is a. 50caliber gunner. He fired rounds into one vehicle smoke. Car. We watched from a bunker hole until finally, a direct hit. [ explosion ] that noise you can hear is debris raining down on top of us. Shrapnel from the bomb and twisted remains of the week fwloen sky high after the explosion. Everybodys ears were ringing. But the next sound was laughter. Its happier ending when car bombs blow up on the other side we are up close to one of those huge car bombs, you realize how disruptive they can be in civilian areas and why they are the most feared isis weapon on the battlefield. Attacks like these are happening every day. Another component of the u. S. Strategy is to cut off funding for the Islamic State. The Treasury Department says isis makes about 40 million a month, just selling oil. So thats become a prime target. Elizabeth palmer reports. Reporter u. S. And Coalition Planes have now begun to bomb tankers full of oil sold by isis in syria. Part of an effort to cut off an estimated 40 million a month the group makes from petroleum sales. And in the cynicle economics of war, some of that oil even goes to president assads government, isis sworn enemy. Most of the oil fields in syria are in isis controlled territory. Tanker to be sold locally, to buyers in regime controlled syria or iraq and turkey. The coalition began bombing isis refineries last year and the russians have now joined in, choosing oil related bombing targets. That may have made a dent in isis ability to supply oil clean enough to be used, but it didnt stop it. Matthew phillips is with bloomberg. We overestimated really the damage that we did, the longterm damage and underestimated their ability to kind of adapt to that. Reporter syrian locals simply set up crude refineries, basically cooking the oil in 3i89s bf selling9 to traders who get it to market. Attacks on what are isis operations like this will civilians. Off revenue is going to hurt isis, it wont bring the group to collapse. The best estimates say isis is making twice as much money on on e weve been changing things up with ky love. Oh yeah. Its a pleasure gel that magnifies both our sensations. It gives us chills in places weve never gotten chills before. Yeah, it makes us feel like. The Republican Party holds round five in its series of president ial debates tonight. This one in las vegas. Donald trump will be front and center with ben carson on his right and ted cruz on his left. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie was a late add. A Des Moines Register poll of likely iowa caucus goers shows cruz leading by ten points with just seven weeks to go before the caucuses. Nancy cordes reports. Reporter this is the second poll in less than a week to show cruz leading the gop field in iowa. The Trump Campaign trashed the for the job. I dont think hes qualified to be president. Reporter donald trump had this message for gop leaders who might think his support in awhat is waning. I dont go down, i go up. Im going to win. Reporter and he went after his sometimes ally ted cruz after promising for weeks he wouldnt. You look how hes dealt with the senate where he goes in there like a maniac. Reporter on twitter, cruz crushed off the comments. Maniac posting a link to this 1980s clip to the song maniac. Cruz refrained from attacking trump. I like donald trump. A lot of our friends here have encouraged me to criticize and attack donald trump. Im not interested in doing so. Reporter nationwide, the real estate mogul still has a big lead, beating cruz by nearly News New York times poll. Still, his willingness to take on both sides of the washington establishment resonates with iowa conservatives. The way Republican Leadership punishes anyone who stands up to the cartel reporter that approach has made him unpopular with leaders in his own party. Brian walsh worked to elect republicans to the senate in 2010 and 201. He would be equally problematic. Reporter why . If were going to win in 2016, we need to expand the electorate. We need more females and hispanics. Instead of learning those lessons, you have candidates like cruz and trump who are doing the opposite. Meanwhile, trumps comments on banning muslims from entering the United States is becoming a drag to his business interests Julianna Goldman reports from washington. Reporter donald trump has made his fortune in part by plastering his name around the world from washington, d. C. To istanbul, people have bought into the trump brand as a symbol of luxury and success. But with each new controversy, more and more Business Partners are severing ties. These high rises in turkey bear the name of donald trump. Some who work inside trump towers in istanbul say the buildings namesake has given them reason to quit their jobs. This 20yearold Sales Consultant said trump should close the building. There are muslim people working here. This is affecting me in an unfavorable way. This week, a major middle east retailer, with 190 department stores, stopped selling the trump home decor brand. In stanford, connecticut some in the Muslim Community are calling on the developer to strike and at this trump residence in new york city its embarrassing to have his name on the building. Reporter gordon gray with the u. S. Chamber of commerce said he cant calculate the damage to trumps reputation in the muslim world. He gets the nomination, that prolongs ss ss his exposure in the public eye. Reporter since he declared his candidacy, trumps rhetoric may have had a cost. After his cost about mexican immigrants, more than a Dozen Companies from macys to the pga and nascar severed ties. Those are small in his empire compared to his real estate fortune. He has several projects in the muslim world. Its very hard to quantify the its not just deals he may or may not lose, its deals that you dont know he may or may not have gotten. So thats always the big question mark out there. Reporter trumps own Financial Disclosures dont break down the dollar amount of each investment, but forbes estimates that last year trump brought in about 128 million in branding and licensing fees. In other news tonight, dog flu. Theres a new strain this year, along with a new vaccine to fight it. But as molly hall reports, the shots are expensive and may not be necessary. Reporter veterinarian katie grib says a new strain of canine flu that started in chicago last spring is spreading fast and has proven deadly for some dogs. This type of the virus progresses so quickly, it moves into the lungs, causing severe pneumonia. Department of agriculture has approved a new vaccine to address the epidemic. Its being shipped to veterinarians right now. Its a totally novel virus. Dogs dont have u. S. Dogs dont have any historical experience with this virus. Therefore, they have no protective cross reaction with any other antibodies that theyve formed in the past. Reporter since the epidemic began, more than 1500 dogs became ill in a few months. At least eight died from secondary infections. The strain has now spread across the country. The new strain is different from the common dog flu, which already has an effective vaccine available. In some cases, two vaccinations might be necessary. The old shot can cost up to 90 for two rounds. The vaccine for the new strain costs double that. Contact with other dogs very frequently, then its extremely important to be thinking about and talking to your vet about doing this vaccine series. Reporter veterinarians dont know how effective the new vaccine will be. They hope down the road, a shot will be developed that covers both strains of flu. For now, check with your vet to your area. beat begins strangelove strange love gucci guilty the fragrances for him and for her man sternly where do you think youre going .

So if youre not worried about wifi in your home, you shouldnt be worried about this. Concerns about this, like maybe a burglar can use this to see where you are in the house . Basically like with any new technology, it comes with a challenge. As society discovers new technologies, there are rules and laws a person has to abide by. If you look at that over there reporter after more than three years, the m. I. T. Team demonstrated their work for the president last summer. What was his reaction to this . So i think when he saw the breathing and heart rate, he said, wow. That potentially has applications for baby monitors. Reporter the goal now is to take it to peoples homes within the next year.
