Im Anthony Mason. With north korea talking about war with the united states, hurricane, and healthcare for millions of americans on the line on capitol hill, President Trump has been tweeting almost nonstop about Something Else entirely, the protests by n. F. L. Players during the national anthem. Weve counted 18 trump tweets on that subject since saturday, including eight today. The president kicked it off friday evening when he called for the protesters to be fired. He called them s. O. B. S. The angry reaction is still coming in. Demarco morgan begins our coverage. Its the land of the free. Reporter today nba superstar lebron james slammed President Trump for his controversial response to Football Players protesting during the national anthem. Because the people run this country, not one individual, and damn sure not him. Reporter this morning tom brady, super bowl m. V. P. And friend of President Trump called in to a radio show. I certainly disagree with what he said and, you know, thought it was just divisive. Reporter after a weekend of repeated attacks against the n. F. L. Where 70 of the players are black, today the president tweeted praise of supporters of nascar, a sport dominated by white drivers. Some nascar owners even threatened to fire staff who protested the national anthem. Legendary driver Richard Petty said, anybody that dont stand up for that anthem ought to be out of the country, period. But earlier today, driver dale earnhardt, jr. , tweeted, all americans are granted rights to peaceful protest. O say can you see on sunday, at least 28 teams, more than 130 players, several owners across the country joined arms, sat, or took a knee. The entire Pittsburgh Steelers team stayed in the locker room with the exception of exarmy ranger alejandro villanueva. Wouldnt you love to see one of these n. F. L.

Reporter at a popular cafeteria on chicagos predominantly black south side, the president s words were still reverberating this afternoon. I think its part of his strategy. What hes trying to do is distract people. So here we have this distraction this weekend. The senate is trying the fight about healthcare. We have damage in puerto rico. Nothing about those things. Reporter Technology Consultant randolph carnegie. Were in a place right now , ere we are fighting over simple, stupid stuff and not looking at the big picture all because of what this guy says. Reporter it did not escape michelle schaefers attention that mr. Trump trained his scorn on the n. F. L. And n. B. A. , whose rosters are predominantly African American. All the better, she said, to rile his base. He has a lot of supporters that probably are cut from the same cloth he is, angry, bitter, racist, ignorant. Reporter Yolanda Thomas says the country has always been divided, but mr. Trump encourages people the like it that way. If you support him, youre the same type of person. Its coming from way more than him. Its coming from the people who back him up. Reporter Alphonso Parker says the president was simply actiacting president ial. Its hurtful for the country for our president to be talking any kind of racial or any kind of slurs toward any individual as the leader of the country. Do you think its corrosive on the public . It is corrosive because ive got friends that ive had for erars, black friends, white friends, veterans, nonveterans, and all of a sudden were going at each other talking about disrespecting the flag. Its getting to the point now where even some of my close onlationships, i dont want to engage with them because this is what we talk about. Reporter and we heard no expressions of hope today that the president might one day extend an olive branch to those who did not vote for him. Anthony . Mason Dean Reynolds with the mood in chicago. Thanks, dean. And lets go now to Margaret Brennan at the white house. Margaret what do you think president s strategy is behind this . Well, anthony, its not clear that the president planned to ignite this controversy, but since his initial comments on friday, he has insisted this is not about race, and his top advisers say that this isnt a distraction from the president s own agenda. But the white house had planned to focus this week on launching their tax reform proposal. Now, since saturday, the president has tweeted just once about taxes, seven times about healthcare, and at least 20 times about sports. And this anthem issue is a divisive one. In a quinnipiac poll taken a year ago, it shows while the majority of americans disapprove of the anthem protests, 63 of white adults disapprove while 74 of black adults do approve. So, the president s core supporters say they love he says what theyve been thinking, but to many critics, hes choosing to divide the country rather than unite it at a critical time. Mason Margaret Brennan, thank you, margaret. North koreas foreign minister says the words President Trump has been using amount to a declaration of war. And the north has the right to retaliate by shooting down u. S. Bombers, even in International Air space. In a cbs news poll out tonight, only 39 of americans approve of the president s handling of north korea, and 53 are concerned he might start an unnecessary war. Over the weekend, u. S. Military planes flew up the coast of north korea in a show of force. Heres National Security correspondent david martin. Reporter the b1 bombers and their f15 fighter escorts flew at night when any north korean jets that attempted to intercept them would be at an extreme disadvantage. And although they flew further north than american combat aircraft have gone in years, they stayed 200 miles off the coast, out of effective range of north korean antiaircraft missiles. In other words, there was very little if any risk that north korea could actually shoot down an american bomber. Still, north korea has intercepted american aircraft before. In 2003, this north korean mig surprised a u. S. Reconnaissance plane conducting a patrol off the coast. But its planes are a decade older now and its air force has been allowed to languish while countrys resources into Ballistic Missiles and nuclear weapons. According to one intelligence report, north korean pilots now get as little as ten flying hours a year. The pentagon said the night flight by the b1s and f15s was a response to recent north grrean missile tests as well as a powerful underground nuclear explosion. It was intended as a signal of he many military options the u. S. Has against north korea. One military officer said future bomber flights might come closer to the north korean coast. Coder international law, a countrys air space extends 12 miles out to sea, but years ago noh korea declared a military zone extending 70 miles off their east coast. The next move is up to kim jong un, and u. S. Intelligence has tercontinental north korea could ballistic missinile n some time in atest the next five to ten days. Anthony.

Today, the eight survivors recalled that milestone in civil rights history and said the battle is not over. Jericka duncan is in little rock. The memories of the Central High School experience are always with me. They just dont go away. Reporter melba beals was just 15 years old when she became one of nine black students in 1957 to integrate little rock Central High School. After an angry mob blocked them from entering the school, president Dwight Eisenhower ordered federal troops to protect them. The students became known as the little rock nine. The world came to little rock to see what would happen. Reporter Minnijean Brown trickey says the hate she faced 60 years ago took away part of her innocence. One of the things i think that comes up is the fear, how we felt, and how we were so shattered. Reporter trickey says back then they werent invited to the prom or other social events.

L onofce a again uc police were brought in from as far away as san diego as well as cops from all around the bay area. We need to pay for their time, travel, room and board. That money adds up really quickly. Reporter nextdoor the city of berkeley has spent about 600,000 so far this year. Its probably going to be more. Thats money that can go towards building Affordable Housing or funding homeless services, putting in new streetlights. Reporter and San Francisco spent a whopping 775,000 on police for the Patriot Prayer demonstration that never wound up happening.
