Complicated now says he was simply wrong. This is the cbs evening news. Mason good evening. Im Anthony Mason. The United States and north korea exchanged new warnings today, the north threatening again to attack guam, and the u. S. Warning of a response that would knock out the communist regime and destroy its people. At the same time, the secretary of state tried to reassure americans and the world that we are not on the brink of nuclear war. It all began yesterday with a statement from the president that caught everyone, including his top advisers, off guard. Heres chief White House CorrespondentMajor Garrett. Reporter faced with new evidence of north Koreas Nuclear progress and knowing the president had grown weary of diplomatic niceties, his National Security advisers agreed on a tough statement. They didnt expect this north korea best not make any more threats to the United States. They will be met with fire and fury like the world has never seen. Reporter today, White House Press secretary Sarah Sanders said advisers were aware of the president s tone beforehand but, the words were his own. It was left to secretary of state Rex Tillerson to explain the comments, speaking while flying to guam for a previously scheduled refueling stop, tillerson said mr. Trump was trying to get the attention of north koreas young dictator, who just yesterday threatened the american territory. What the president was doing is sending a strong message to north korea in language that kim jongun would understand because he doesnt seem to understand diplomatic language. Reporter initial congressional reaction was critical of the president s fire and fury language but supportive voices emerged today, including republican senator marco rubio. I dont think the rhetoric is the problem. I think the problem is theres a lunatic in north korea with Nuclear Weapons. Reporter today, the president tweeted that he had ordered a modernization of the u. S. Nuclear arsenal and touted its unmatched power. In fact, it was president obama who directed billions over many years to improve aging Nuclear Weapons and delivery and targeting systems. The president did order an overall review of u. S. Nuclear strategy earlier this year. Advisers say the point of his rhetoric was to shift the conversation away from the u. S. Being vulnerable to the stark military risks north korea faces if it doesnt change course. Anthony. Mason Major Garrett with the president in new jersey. Thanks. The defense secretary reinforced the president s warning today. David martin has more at the pentagon. Reporter defense secretary mattis bluntly warned north korea to cease any consideration of actions that would lead to the end of its regime and the destruction of its people. That doomsday warning came a day after north korea threatened to rain Nuclear Missiles on the american airbase on the Pacific Island of guam. The governor of guam tried to assure residents the island is american territory and will be protected by the american military. Ive reached out to the white house this morning. An attack or threat on guam is a threat or attack on the United States. Reporter north korea made the threat after b1 bombers had flown from guam over the Korean Peninsula in what has become a standard show of force in response to north koreas missile tests. Returning from asia, secretary of state tillerson was asked if americans should be worried. No, i think americans should sleep well at night. Reporter mattis issued his warning shortly before touring the uss kentucky a Ballistic Missile submarine that could by itself annihilate north korea. 60 minutes went on board the kentucky on patrol in the pafng. It can carry almost 200 Nuclear Warheads awant to missiles loaded beneath those hatchs. Commander brian freck was the captain. The warheads that can be carried on my missiles are extremely powerful. Reporter compare them to the bomb that leveled hiroshima. Much more powerful than that, much more powerful than hiroshima. 84 reporter and can of on any given day, several of these submarines are hiding in the worlds oceans. Sound the general alarms, sir. I have permission to fire. Reporter . Drilling to respond to a launch order from the president. Pentagon Officials Say no new military orders vehicle issued despite the warlike rhetoric on both sides. But they warn, tensions are likely to remain high since the u. S. Is scheduled to conduct an annual military exercise in south korea later this month. Anthony. Mason david martin at the pentagon. Thanks, david. There was sharp reaction in asia to the growing tension between the u. S. And north korea. Ben tracy has that. Reporter south koreas president says he will now allow the u. S. To fully deploy the antiBallistic Missile system known as thad in his country. It comes as he is also calling fair complete overhaul of south koreas military. PresidenPresident Trumps fired fury comments led to a large protest march in north korea orchestrated by the regime. In japan, trumps words came on the anniversary of the american atomic bomb in nagasaki, a reminder of whats at stake. Japans lawmakers are pushing for new weapons that could allow it to launch a preemptive strike on north korea. China is warning both kim jonguns regime and the u. S. To tone down the rhetoric. In a statement to cbs news, Chinas Foreign Ministry called the situation highly sensitive, and that all sides should stop provoking each other. China does not want north korea to have Nuclear Weapons but sails the problem should be solved diplomatically. It fears a war in the Korean Peninsula could lead to a refugee cries along the nearly 900mile border ist shares with north korea. Next week, north korea celebrates its liberation day holiday, which some analysts believe could lead kim jongun to launch another missile or conduct a sixth, underground nuclear test. Now, north korea just released a new statement, and in it they say that President Trump let out a load of nonsense about fire and fewery and that dialogue is not possible with such a guy berest of reason. It appears north korea is not yet ready to talk. Anthony. Mason ben tracy in beijing. Thank you, ben. We turn now to veteran diplomat bill richardson, former u. S. Ambassador to the united nations, and an expert on north korea. Mr. Ambassador, where do we go after fire and fury . Whats the best option for the u. S. Now . Best option is diplomacy. The best option is continued sanctions, see if they work, continue to pressure china, continue the military exercises. But find a way to talk to the North Koreans. Mason but kim jongun hasnt shown a lot of interest in diplomacy aes to this point. We dont know what he wants. Hes an unpredictable character. We dont know what his intentions are. He wants to stay in power. But i think in the end, once he knows that he can hit the United States with a missile, he can start negotiating. Thats what the way his father was. But i think keeping the talk about preemptive military strikes and the president s very incendiary statement, which was not helpful, is not the way to go. Mason what do you make of north koreas threat towards guam . This is part of their foreign policy. However, the intensity of the attack, the specificity bothers me. The fact that the foreign minister himself, who is a reasonable guy ive dealt with him was so intense that im just a little worried that that intensity is a little too strong. What you dont want to have is a miscalculation. Mason whats the risk here that we could start a war by accident . The risk is strong. A fishing boat is shot by the North Koreans. Air space is invaded. And the North Koreans react, the south koreans react. Everybody is trying to outmacho each other. Mason lastly mambassador, u. S. Intelligence seemed to be surprised by the technical advances in north korea. Does that worry you . That worries me because we should have been on this long ago. We should consider finding ways to put more intelligence, overflights, more spies because we were caught off guard. North korea was way more advanced than our intelligence people told us. Thats a massive intelligence failure that should never happen again. Mason ambassador bill richardson. Thank you so much for being with us. Thank you. Thank you. Mason now to the special counsels investigation of russian meddling in the u. S. Election and whether anyone in the Trump Administration was involved. We learned today that the f. B. I. Paid a visit two weeks ago to a home of paul manafort, the former Trump Campaign chairman, in alexandria, virginia. Heres julianna goldman. Reporter armed with a search warrant, federal agents showed up early in the morning to go through Paul Manaforts home, an aggressive move in an escalating investigation. Manafort spokesman jason maloni confirmed the search and emphasized his client has consistently cooperated with Law Enforcement and other serious inquiries and did so on this occasion as well. But legal experts say the search warrant indicates special Counsel Robert Mueller doesnt trust manafort. It suggests that they are concerned about possible evidence destruction. Reporter Peter Zeidenberg say former Justice Department prosecutor. I think that the takeaway is that they felt they werent getting full cooperation because if they did, they wouldnt feel the need to take a step of getting a search warrant. Reporter the day before his home was searched, manafort met with Senate Investigators to discuss the june 2016 meetath trump tower organized by donald trump jr. To meet a russian attorney whose whosupposedly had damaging information about hillary clinton. The special counsel is also looking into manaforts business dealings. Typically in criminal investigations, prosecutors try to flip witnesses. In exchange for their cooperation, they lessen their legal liabilitys. Mueller could be trying to do that now to pressure manafort. If they think he has information about the campaign, they would undoubtedly squeeze him for that and hed be in a position, from a prosecutors standpoint, to tell you whats going on, who is doing what, who knew what, when. Reporter manafort was officially part of the trump conservatism for only five months. Campaign chairman for just three. Put butt this development is another sign of how close this investigation is hitting to the president s inner circle. The special counsels office declined to comment. Anthony. Mason julianna goldman, thanks. In pittsburgh today, 18 members of a swat team were rushed to a hospital after a drug raid that exposed them to a chemical, possibly fentanyl.

Reporter as heavy rains on saturday created flooding scenes reminiscent of hurricaneica treen a20 of the cities 121 drainage pumps were out of commission. Sewerage and water board superintendent joe becker initially told us monday the pumping stations were working at full capacity. There was no problems with the pumps at all. All the pumps were working. All of them were pumping. Reporter but the following day at a City Council Meeting he was forced to backtrack. I was trying to say that that we that we used the available pumping capacity to its fullest extent. Reporter with nearly 10 inches of rain in three hours, becker said the pumps were overwhelmed, but he admitted, some were offline due to maintenance. One pump station operated jihadist 52 capacity. Now, two officials in charge of the pumping and drainage system are out. Mollermaersk Mitch Landrieu has asked for more resignation. When you have credibility issues around anything, whether its a big or small contributor to a major event, you have to do that. This is unacceptable on every level. Reporter frustrated residents like naaman stewart, demanded residents. If we flood like this in a typical new orleans summer rainstorm, whats going to happen in a hurricane . Reporter Dwayne Boudreaux is still cleaning the mess left by two feet of water in his grocery store. Its filthy water. It comes from off the streets, off the stiewrs, off the drains. Its on the shelves, got into the coolers. Anything it touched, ive got to throw it away. Reporter it could take months to complete repairs on the broken pumps.

The paralysis ended up seeping down from my arm to my leg, leaving the whole right side of my body basically immobile. I thought maybe im becoming paralyzed or potentially seeing death. Reporter that had to be just terrifying for you. It was terrifying. Reporter hardeman is an example of a puzzling and concerning trend. Todays report found from 1999 to 2005, the incidence of stroke declined in both men and women, but from 2005 to 2010, while the rates among men continued to drop, they stayed the same for women. Dr. Kathryn rexrode from brigham and Womens Hospital says risk factors for stroke, such as obesity, high blood pressure, an irregular heartbeat and diabetes may for some reason affect women differently than men. Diabetes is a strong risk factor for stroke in both men and women, but in women the risk is 26 higher than in men with diabetes. You wanted blueberry, right . Reporter hardeman recovered and went back to her gourmet ice cream business in brooklyn, but last june she had a second stroke. I had to stop being c. E. O. Of my ice cream business and start being c. E. O. Of my health and put that as my priority. Which i did. Reporter this time, doctors found the cause a small hole in her heart, and repaired it. When i was told that i had a stroke, ive always associated it with the elderly, something that your grandmother has, but never thought it would be something that would happen to me. Reporter you can remember symptoms of a stroke using the word fast. And if you get to the hospital quickly enough, doctors may be able to limit permanent damage by using medicine to dissolve a blood clot in the brain. Mason so knowing the symptoms can literally save your life. Jon, thank you very much. Coming up, a jersey boy on broadway. My doctor recommended i switch laxatives.

But now the man who said that is telling us he got it wrong. Heres jim axelrod. Reporter formulating those strings of numbers, letters, and symbols into passwords is a fact of modernday life. Its pretty annoying. Pretty annoying. Reporter though not a particularly popular one. Its super annoying because then i have to remember what the new password is going to be. Reporter count bill burr among the bothered. Well, it frustrates everybody, me included. Reporter you included . Oh, sure. Reporter which is really something when you consider burr is the father of the modernday password. I have maybe 200 passwords. I cant remember all those, obviously. Reporter 14 years ago, writing the official guidance for government employees, burr suggest picking random combinations and changing them often. But it turns out, Something Like this is a lot harder to hack than Something Like this its probably better to do fairly long passwords that are phrases or Something Like that, that you can remember, than to try to get people to do lots of funny characters. Reporter so a couple of months back, the guidelines were rewritten to reflect this discovery. Burr is now retired, but he helped out. Do you have any regrets about the original guidance you furnished . Yeah, i do.
