Transcripts For KPIX CBS Evening News 20170915

This is the cbs evening news. Mason and this is our western edition. Good evening. Im Anthony Mason. We begin with breaking news. Another Missile Launch by north korea. National security correspondent david martin is following developments at the pentagon. David, what do we know . Reporter anthony, we know that now for a second time, north korea has fired a missile over japan. They did one late last month. This one is said by japanese officials to have gone about 1,500 miles past japan, which is further than the last test went. Now, u. S. Intelligence had been expecting a test of either an Intercontinental Ballistic Missile or an intermediaterange missile. We dont know yet which this was. If it was an intercontinental missile, it could have been fired at a high enough angle to keep it well short of the united states. If it was an intermediaterange missile, it would have had the range to hit american bases in guam, but it was not fired in that direction. But either way, it seems like north korean missiles flying over an american ally, japan, has become the new normal. Mason david martin at the pentagon with another Missile Launch from north korea. Thanks. Is there a deal to help dreamers . President trump scrapped the obamaera daca program that protected undocumented immigrants brought here as children from deportation, and he Gave Congress six months to come up with a replacement. Today, we got so many conflicting answers, we needed two correspondents to sort through them. So here are nancy cordes on capitol hill and Julianna Goldman at the white house, where the republican president had dinner last night with the top two democrats in congress. Reporter the white house was initially vague about last nights meeting, calling it a constructive working dinner, but as my colleague nancy cordes can tell you, democrats said there was more to it. Reporter yes, democrats insist the president signed off on a policy theyve been pushing for years. We had an agreement to move forward. Reporter Democratic Leaders nancy pelosi and Chuck Schumer say they left that white house dinner with a framework in hand Legal Protections for dreamers, paired with funding for Border Security, excluding the wall. Were not for the wall. Well never be for the wall. Reporter at the white house, press secretary Sarah Huckabee sanders quickly refuted the democrats version of events, saying excluding the wall was not agreed to. We will build the wall. Reporter building a wall on the u. S. Mexico border defined mr. Trumps campaign. The wall will come later. Reporter traveling to florida today, he tried to reassure his base he hadnt given up. There was no deal. They didnt say they had a deal. Theres a lot of sympathy for the dreamers. Reporter here on the hill, many republicans were supportive, but some conservatives accused the president of selling out. North carolinas mark walker tweeted, if the deal is as pelosi characterized, it causes more than a pause. More like a screeching halt. Theyre nervous about the s esidents newfound bipartisanship. Even schumer marveled at the detente today in this hot mic moment on the senate floor. He likes us. He likes me, anyway. Reporter House Speaker paul ryan reminded reporters republicans still control congress, and write the legislation. Have you asked the president to at least check with you before he makes an agreement with democrats . First off, there is no agreement. It was a discussion, not an agreement or a negotiation. Reporter back on air force one, the president said his Party Supports him. My relationship with the republicans is excellent. Many of them agree with what im doing. Reporter by the time mr. Trump spoke to reporters for the fourth time, he was back to criticizing the democrats about the wall. If the democrats arent going to approve it, then were not going to do what they want. Mason so, nancy, whats the bottom line here . If youre a dreamer, should you be breathing easier tonight . Reporter well, you should be encouraged by the fact that everyone is talking about this, and leaders on both sides appear to be interested in doing something quickly. The question is how long its going to take them to draft and agree to the Border Security side of this package . And, will Republican Leaders be willing to turn their backs on a small but very vocal group of conservatives who believe that granting these socalled dreamers any kind of legal status, especially citizenship, would amount to amnesty. Mason julianna, this is the second time in a week the president has been willing to deal with democrats. Whats that about . Reporter well, this is a president who promised to be a dealmaker, and so far, hes come up short. Hes frustrated with republicans, and he wants a win. But, anthony, its not like hes exactly making nice with democrats here. In addition to his many comments today, the president sent out a Campaign Email saying that liberals in Congress Need one more reminder that building the wall is nonnegotiable. Mason Julianna Goldman at the white house, nancy cordes at the capitol. Thank you, both. The president went to florida today to see for himself the damage done by Hurricane Irma last weekend, and to talk to some of the victims. Heres carter evans. Reporter on the tarmac in fort myers, President Trump e aised Florida Governor rick scott for the response to Hurricane Irma. The job that rick has done is being talked about all over. Reporter and couldnt resist injecting a little politics. What do i know . But i hope this man right here, rick scott, runs for the senate. Reporter aboard marine one, the president and first lady got an aerial view of the destruction in naples below. On the ground, they visited a Mobile Home Park that was badly damaged. We love the people of florida, and they went through something that, i guess the likes of which we can really say nobodys ever seen before. Theyve never seen a category like this come in, because it came in really at a 5. All you have to do is look at what happened in the keys. Reporter Hurricane Irma made landfall sunday on cudjoe key as a category 4. Later, the president handed out sandwiches and met with supporters. He has a couple of questions. Go ahead. Where was obama in the last hurricane . He was playing golf. Was this a good vote . Yes. He said the best vote of his life. Reporter after the president left the airport here at fort myers, he told reporters on air force one that he hopes to visit puerto rico, the u. S. Virgin islands, and possibly even the florida keys, to see the damage for himself, perhaps as early as next week. Anthony. Mason carter evans. Thanks, carter. The hurricane death toll in florida is at least 25. That does not include eight residents of a hollywood nursing home that lost air conditioning. More now from Jonathan Vigliotti. Shame on you. Shame on you. Reporter vendetta craigs mother, 87yearold edna jefferson, was one of the 158 patients rescued after spending three days in the sweltering heat. What do you want to say to the owner of this facility . We are coming for you. We coming for you. This is this is unacceptable. You messed with my mom. You messed with my mom. Im not taking it. Reporter now police have launched a criminal investigation. One inspection last year found 29 violations, including patients being given the wrong medications, overflowing trash, and insects in the kitchen. Residents complained they were hungry and were calling out for food. The facility was ranked much below average by the state agency for health care administration, and its owner, jack michel, was fined 15 million in a 2006 Health Care Fraud complaint. Yet, the center was allowed to stay open. How could Something Like this, how could a facility like this still be open . Look, thats another question for the state agencies that regulate these nurses homes . At what point do you pull the license . At what point is it enough . Reporter when the home lost power, Police Believe the backup generators were still not big enough to cool the space. Records show several 911 calls came from the center, starting at 3 30 in the morning, but it was nurse judy fromm, from a hospital across the street, who walked over with colleagues to find out what was happening. It was a situation where we knew we had to get those patients evacuated. Reporter vendetta craig also wonders why nursing home staff simply did not take patients to the airconditioned Hospital Steps away. I hope the truth comes out. Its just senseless. Reporter and we called the nursing home multiple times for comment and have still not heard back. We also visited the owners home. It was still boarded up for the hurricane. Anthony, this evening, 39 people remain hospitalized. Mason Jonathan Vigliotti in hollywood, florida. The florida keys bore the worst of irma. Manuel bojorquez now reports on the massive effort to get supplies to those who have lost everything. Reporter with the scope of devastation in parts of the keys becoming more clear, the focus is now on relief.

A little bit, yeah, yeah, yup. And that helps because it gives you it gives you a little more desire to keep pushing forward. Its over four feet. Reporter its also come in handy for him. The home he shares with his wife took on more than four feet of storm surge. Hes called fema and helped others start filing claims, too. Because its tough. You know. You try to be you try to be the man and try to be, you know, strong for your wife and everybody else, and i didnt want to see this. But well well pick up. Well move on. Reporter harold says he doesnt even recognize most of the debris in his backyard because it washed up from houses all the way down the street. Conditions are still considered hazardous here, so it could be days before all residents of the keys are allowed back in. Anthony. Mason Manuel Bojorquez in the keys. Wow, manny, thank you.

The Credit Rating Company Revealed last week that hackers gained access to the personal information of about 143 million americans. Anna werner is following this. Reporter consumers were still posting their outrage on social media, some complaining they tried to freeze their credit after the breach but couldnt, and wanted answers. Equifax disclosed that the hackers stole the personal information of millions through a Software Vulnerability on a web server. The fix should have been an immediate security update, but the softwares maker, the Apache Software foundation, says hackers exploited what it called equifaxs failure to install the security updates in a timely manner. This was an urgent update. Reporter which Cyber Security Company Executive michael landoway says is bad enough. At the fact that there was an unpatched server for a matter of months, just opened the door to the hackers. Reporter but landoway says among experts right now the bigger question is, once the hackers got in, was the consumer data protected through encryption or not . If it was unencrypted, theres really nothing that can be done from this point on. Now, the hackers are buying and selling everything there is to know about our identity on the dark web. Reporter Massachusetts Attorney general maura healey says shell be suing equifax over its exposure of consumers private information.

Reporter we asked some cbs news employees to try that credit freeze protocol. Some got error messages. Now, we asked equifax to provide us with more information about the breach and whether, as those experts are questioning, consumer data was encrypted or not.
