The heat from the explosion could be felt from a nearby highway. I saw the plane come across and it was wobbling like that, and then i had heard the bang, and there was flames and smoke everywhere. The plane was bound for king island off the Southern Coast of australia, and two of the men onboard were reportedly planning to play golf. Trumps new National Security adviser is a soldier and scholar. The president congratulated mcmaster on twitter. The president chose mcmaster after spending the weekend interviewing candidates for the job, and the acting National Security adviser will become mcmasters chief of staff. Major garrett is at the white house with details on the replacement of major michael flynn. Reporter good morning. Mcmaster is known as one of the most successful battlefield commanders of iraq, and the National Security adviser is different, and lots and lots of politics, and even so the president says he is confident his new team is ready. Our country is lucky to have two people like this. Flanked by his present security adviser, kellogg, president introduces mcmaster. I watched and read a lot over the last two days, and he is highly respected by everybody in the military. Mcmaster served in the first gulf war, afghanistan and iraq. He will be the fourth general appointed to a senior position in the Trump Administration, after james mattis, john kelly, and ousted National Security adviser, mike flynn. I would like to say what a privilege it is to continue to serve our nation, and i am grateful to you for that opportunity and look forward to joining the National Security team and doing everything i can to advance and protect the interest of the american people. He holds a phd in military history, and wrote the dereliction of duty. The enemy showed the people who they are. It was there in 2006 that 60 minutes caught up with the then colonel mcmaster. Working with iraqi forces to retake a town after it had been captured by al kite. Robert harward turned it down over how much scrutiny he would have over white house staff. Its important to note, however, that mcmaster, unlike other generals in President Trumps circle is still on active duty. Sweeping new immigration guidelines, and new rules could lead to more deportations and detentions. Here is more on what to expect in the upcoming announcement. Putting final touches on the new guidelines which are expected to toughen new immigration laws, and among the changes, the immediate return of mexican immigrants at the border, and new procedures allowing faster deportation proceedings, and Agency Chiefs to start hiring an additional 10,000 i. C. E. Agents and 5,000 more border agents, and parents in the u. S. Can be prosecuted if they were found to have paid smugglers to bring their children across the board, and then daca provided work permits that came to the country illegally as children, and at one time included a plan to activate National Guard troops but that plan has been scrapped. We expect the new guidelines to be unveiled later this week. Later this week, the president is expected to unveil his resized travel ban. What can you tell us about that . Thats right. A rewritten version of the immigration travel ban has been prepared, but it still has to be signed off on by the white house. Dhs secretary kelly said the new order will not prevent green card holders from returning to the u. S. Thank you. Cbs news senior National Security analyst, fran townsand, good morning. Good morning. We know the resized travel ban will help them pass the legal questions the ninth circuit and others have had. It is being drafted, and it wont prevent legal visa holders who are in transit from entering the country, or green card holders, and this is not a total ban but a moratorium, if you will, and it will allow them to look at the vetting procedures, and if they can meet the revised vetting requirements they will be able to resume entry. Lets talk about the new National Security adviser he has just chosen, h. R. Mcmaster, and his name is herbert raymond. Do you think its a good choice . I think its a brilliant choice. Of the people he was talking to, h. R. Mcmaster is a doer and thinker, right, and going back to the author of dereliction of duty, and he talked about the approach to wars being narcissistic, and we view conflict on what we like to do and what we are good at opposed to what the enemys objectives are, and he considers the military aspects but the transition to a peaceful and stable process. And there was competing factions around the National Security council. How do you think mcmasters appointment can affect the dynamic right now . I think, look, the reason the notion that he understands that we have to plan for a peaceful transition to a stable political process indicates that he understands the need for the use of all instruments of national power, and he has not done that before but he will be challenged with that now, and the state department interest and military interests, and the longer term strategic interest of the United States. He has been hawkish on russia, and including the buildup in the baltic states, and isis and terrorism, will that influence policy inside the west wing . Its interesting, norah, because we have not yet its only 30 days in and we have not seen the president s National Security strategy. How you approach particular Foreign Policy issues, russia, iran, china, syria, really depends on whats the president s strategy, and theres no terms in what will President Trumps strategy be, and he will be the one to write that. And then bomb threats to Jewish Community centers, and all there have been 69 threats at 54 Centers Across the country in recent weeks, and they have all been hoaxes, and President Trump said a moment ago, antisemitism is horrible and has to stop while visiting a museum. And ivanka trump wrote america is a nation built on the principle of religious tolerance, and we must protect our houses of worship and religious centers. And then heavy rain is making creeks and rivers swell in an alreadysoaked region. Storms triggered mudslides in santa cruz south of San Francisco. That area could see eight more inches of rain before the storm moves on later today. John, good morning. Reporter good morning. Water running out of the Anderson Reservoir continues to create a torant here. In fact, nine of californias 12 major reservoirs are now above their water averages for this time of year. These are the highest totals since 200011. 2011. The flooding continues across northern california, and creeks are swelling and those living downstream wait and worry. If the creek were to overflow the flood pattern is just going to come right through this whole neighborhood. Reporter its not the only reservoir filled to capacity for the recent rains, and officials monday were forced to open a spillway about two hours south of sacramento. The last time that happened it contributed to the flooding in areas in and around the town of modesto. We are going to keep the spillway open for four days and release enough water so we can accommodate the storms coming in. In orville, engineers say the dams spillway is stable and able to handle the rain. Occasionally you see erosion here and there but nothing of concern at this time. Reporter nearly 2,000 residents that live below it are still under an evacuation warning and are told to be ready to leave if necessary. Officials say they were able to halt a developing breach in a levy that could impact dozens of homes. And the rain is creating headaches in the Santa Cruz Mountains where mudslides blocked roads and toppled trees. With this giant fir tree falling near santa cruz, some cleared the roads with chainsaws before the Fire Department arrived. We are tired. Our crews have one day a week off if they are lucky. Since californias rainy season began in october, San Francisco has already logged more than 24 inches of rain. Thats above the citys annual average rainfall total. John, thank you so much.

Kris van cleave shows us how it took hours for police to respond. Good morning, sources tell cbs news tsa officers were in the process of opening a precheck lane when the passengers walked through an unstaffed metal deteshgts. The tsa said two supervisors were wear of the breach within minutes but it wasnt reported until after a third supervisor saw it on video at least an hour later. Police in the tsa at jfk were sent scrambling after 11 travelers were not properly screened monday morning. At around 6 00, the passengers walked through an unsprfupervis metal detector. Three of them set off an alarm. And continued to a gate for secondary screening. They were not notified until two hours. Security cameras captured images of at least two of the people who set off an alarm. All three identified after boarding a flight to San Francisco. They were rescreened after landing.

Floridas controversial stand your ground law is at the center of a controversial hearing this morning to determine whether a trial will even take place. Retired captain Curtis Reeves is accused of shooting and killing a man in a Movie Theater. They that an argument over texting in a Movie Theater. Reeds lawyers said that his client acted out of safety when olson verbally and physically attacked him. We believe in this case, a criminal prosecution because he reasonably believed that the threat was imminent. And that using deadly force was necessary. Cbs legal analyst Rikki Klieman is here. And joins us at the table. Rikki, high. Its disheartening to know that texting to lead to loss of life. And a lot of people believe that stand your ground means when youre at home. Can you tell how it applies in this case . We always have selfdefense as affirmative defense in criminal cases. Its been recognized in time in memorable. What sandtand your ground chang not only here but in a theater, selfdefense plus no duty to retreat. So, in the other states that dont have stand your ground, if youre in a public to which you have a right to be there legally, you still have to retreat to the wall. If you are met with force. But in stand your yeah. Youre saying he doesnt to move here . Exactly correct. The Defense Attorneys said that he reasonably believed the threat was imminent. How are they saying that this life was in danger . Well, one of the thing that is critical in this case is the word reasonably. Hes been portrayed by defense as a 71yearold man tests who was frail, who was arthritic, who reflexive time was less. Who felt vulnerable as many 71yearold frail people would do. And what he then did, they say, was not only subjective, but he felt vulnerable as you can see as he moved that he was being menaced. And the shot is up. Its an upward tratrajectory. So that he says he was sitting back and the guy was coming at him. Rikki, tell us exactly what happened. Because hes sitting in a theater. The victim is apparently texting. He goes to the management to complain, right . Yes. Hes go he did everything right. He went to the manager to complain. He comes back in, and thats when the argument starts. It may or may not have started, he said he tells the manager something is thrown at the defendant. I think it was probably the cell phone. His glasses are knocked askew. Hit something in his face. The popcorn is then spilled. And according to the defense, the man was screaming menacing at him. By the way, there are witnesses in the theater who say that the deceased voice rose above the sound of the very, very loud previews before lone survivor. This is a case defendant must show by preponderance of the evidence to a judge, quote unquote, he reasonably believed that his life was in danger. Very sad case. Thank you.

And Manuel Marquez is outside of maralago where the numbers are quickly piling up. Reporter good morning, between secret service and local deputies guarding the estate and the u. S. Coast guard out in the surrounding waters, maralago is a fortress when the president is here. The white house will not disclose the exact cost of mr. Trumps figure. That 10 million figure is based on a similar trip by president obama in 2013. Air force one accounts for a big chunk of the president ial travel budget. Costing more than 180,000 per hour to operate. That means the roughly fourhour round trip flight to his seaside estate costs more than 700,000. Is he going down there every weekend, the costs are going to add up pretty quickly. Reporter tom smitten, president of the watchdog group. He doesnt need to go to florida every weekend. He can work at the white house or up at camp david. Reporter mr. Trump often attacked his predecessor for traveling too often. He once tweeted president Barack Obamas vacation is costing taxpayers millions of dollars. Unbelievable. Four years ago, president obamas weekend in south florida cost taxpayers 3. 6 million. The pentagon spent about 2. 8 million for air force one, plus support aircraft and military personnel. The secret service and the coast guard added nearly 800,000. During his eight years in office, mr. Obama racked up about 97 million in travel costs. President trump is on pace to eclipse that by the end of his first year. Another cost of keeping President Trump safe, disruptions to businesses near maralago. The airspace around lantana airport is restrict were when the president is in town. On an average day there are around 300 takeoff its and landings. But when the president s here nothing is moving, except the bottom line for businesses that operate out of this airport. They say they lose about 30,000 each weekend theyre closed. Others welcome the president ial visit to palm beach. She owns a boutique in the rich shopping district. President trump will bring many more highend visitors to the community which is going to definitely help everyone on a High Economic scale. Reporter regardless of who is in office, president ial visits are never cheap. Nearly, the president must be kept safe. But he also travels with a contingent of aides needed to run the government, especially during emergencies. Anthony. Manuel, thanks. President trump is finalizing his travel ban.

The job of National Security adviser is quite a bit different. You know him. What can you tell us about him . Do you think its a good choice . I think its a brilliant choice.

Yesterday i go over to Charlies Place and check in at the desk and say can you tell charlie im down here . They go, miss king, mr. Rose is already waiting for you at chiprianis. I walk into the restaurant and there is charlie, sitting. Honest, as you see in that picture, like he stepped off the golf course. I said no offense but i thought you would be in bed and feeling a little feeble. And he goes, why would you think that . Because you had open heart surgery 11 days ago. As i was leaving, i said would it be okay to take a picture and post it . He said absolutely, i think thats a great idea. Please do. Warming up to your selfies now. As you know, he is no fan of a selfie. I said can i do a selfie, too . He said okay. He looks great, is in such great spirits. As i was leaving, his trainer was coming. He was getting ready to do some exercise of the he is doing great and looking great. It is amazing what those surgeons can do now and how quickly people can bounce back.

Hes planning to come back in march. We said please dont rush. As much as we miss him, please dont rush. So well see. I was so excited. Really good. Looked really good. I know hes reading the newspaper and following the same stories we are. There were five papers on the table. And theres this, of course. Big news about Lieutenant General h. R. Mcmaster, because he is President Trumps new National Security adviser. The president made the announcement at his maralago estate in florida, where he spent the weekend interviewing candidates. Mcmaster thanked the president for the opportunity. I would just like to say what a privilege it is to continue serving our nation. Im grateful to you for that opportunity and i look forward to joining the National Security team and doing everything i can to advance and protect the interest of the american people. Mcmaster is a 54yearold career army officer with a phd, who fought in the first gulf war, afghanistan and iraq. As an active duty general, he still serves the commander in chief and is less able to make staffing demands. Retired admiral Robert Howard turned down the position last week.

Many argue that having the president greet bid the queen would be an embarrassment to the crown. Prompting heated words. Good morning, charlie. Reporter heated words as to whether President Trump has the right to an official visit, meet with the queen, stay at the palace, the whole shebang. Mostly this is a chance to vent, both inside that building and out. President trump is a disgusting man. To extend this invitation, it would be catastrophic. This, a fierce debate over whether President Trump should be stripped of a state visit. We cannot accept as the denegration of a free press, denegration of women, of religious freedoms. Reporter kerstinoswald accused the government of cozying up to the president. As one of my constituent states meets of having the [ bleep ] to stand up and show some kind of moral backbone. Reporter but those in defense of President Trump, like conservative nigel evans say critics should get over it. He is going to go down in history as being roundly condemned for being the only politician to deliver on his promises. Were actually attacking the american people, the 61 Million People who voted for donald trump. Reporter the last state visit by an american president was by president obama in 2011. Unlike a regular visit, a state visit means rolling out the royal red carpet, including an official state banquet. Its ostensably an invitation by the queen. Traditionally, u. S. President s have had to wait years for a state visit if they get one at all. President trump only had to wait seven days, that triggered the petition and protest last night, arguing a state visit would be an embarrassment to her majesty, the queen. There is no way, no way donald trump deserves this honor. Well, in the end, the protest, petition, debate in parliament, none of it really matters in the big picture. No vote was taken and that state visit will go ahead as planned. Norah . There you go. Charlie, thank you so much. The world diplomats are remembering russias ambassador to the united nations. He died suddenly yesterday in new york, one day before his 65th birthday. He served as russias representative at the u. N. Since 2006. In fact, he was the longest serving ambassador on the Security Council and was highly respected. Charlie rose spoke with him in 2014 on his pbs program. Is it the beginning of a new cold war between russia and the United States . Well, first of all, i think when you think about what the cold war was, the cold war was a period of total competition. And both sides were getting very, very seriously to kill each other in nuclear war. This, of course, is not the case and will not be the case this time. We need to analyze the entire situation very coolly. I think that definitely the United States and some western countries have their view on crimea. But i think its a joint vested interest. First of all, in making sure the world Global Economy, Global Economy is not destabilized and secondly we can Work Together if we are to prevent further destabilization of ukraine. And without our cooperation on that, i dont see that happening at all. Russias deputy permanent representative to the u. N. Told the russian news agency, turkan is irreplaceable. He said he remained at his workplace until the very last minute. He was the Ministry Spokesman and even then very highly respected man. Very well liked. Any thought about how he died . We dont know. We dont know. Four american tourists on a dream vacation were killed when a plane slammed into an australian shopping center, rapidly descending into the outlet mall. Seconds later, the plane crashed and burst into flames. The pilot, who was australian, was also killed. The small plane suffered catastrophic engine failure after takeoff from a melbourne airport.

President trump is President Trump is finalizing a revised version of the travel ban temporarily barring people from seven muslim countries. This comes at a delicate time for the american medical system. Hospitals have until tomorrow to select their next generation of doctors. Theyre drawing from a pool that includes more than 1,000 applicants from countries on President Trumps list. We have a reporter in springfield, illinois, on how this could impact patient care. Tony, good morning. Good morning. The United States is suffering a severe shortage of primary care physicians with gaps reported in virtually every state. Major Health Care Systems like this one at Southern Illinois university had hoped to fill some of those gaps with foreign born doctors. But with new talk of a travel ban, they now fear that those efforts could fail. I started getting one text and one email after another after another after another after another. The moment President Trump signed his temporary travel ban, dr. Jerry cruz, dean of the Southern Illinois University School of medicine, was slammed by messages from panicked colleagues. Its an atmosphere much whats going to happen next . I think there is some fear, there is fear of detention, theres fear of the ban being extended to other countries. Reporter one in four doctors in the u. S. Are foreign born including an estimated 15,000 from the seven countries already included in President Trumps travel ban. How significant is a shortage in a place like this . In this county, the shortage of primary care physicians is about half of what is needed. Refere. Reporter dr. Cruz hoped to help those in Morgan County by recruiting more international graduates. International medical graduates are very important part of the American Health system. Dr. Andrew german is president of the american medical association. In many places, the International Medical graduate physical is the medical system. So people should be very concerned about this. Reporter hospitals have until 9 00 p. M. Wednesday to decide which recent medical School Graduates they would like to bring on as residents, in a normal yeeshgs the best candidates would rise to the top. Fwhut year, hospitals also have to weigh whether to take a risk on a candidate whose visa may be denied. All your dreams are shattered by a piece of paper. A syrian born cordology fellow at cook county hospital arrived as a resident in 2011. If someone in the white house is watching this, what you would want them to know about the doctors from the seven countries . Our dream i would really urge them not to take this opportunity away from them. The program wants them. They want the program. They should have the same opportunity to match here. Reporter dr. Cruz hopes the new ban includes an extension for doctors. What message would you have for foreign applicants who are watching this playout in the United States and thinking about next year . Id tell them, just hang on. Were there for you. Reporter now the average doctor sees between will 800 and 1500 patients a year. So when we talk about the 15,000 physicians from the seven k countries already faektd, were talking about health care that could affect millions of americans. Gayle . Thank you, sony.
