We will work with house republicans, on this plan, using the same brackets they have proposed. 12 . 25 . And 33 . For many americans, their tax rate will be 0. Under my plan, no American Company will pay more than 15 of their business income in taxes. Your taxes from 35 to 15 . Small businesses will benefit the most from this plan. Hillary clintons plan will require Small Business to pay as much as three times more in taxes than what i am proposing.

Another american swimmer is in the middle of an extraordinary come back. His name may not be the most familiar on the u. S. Swim team. Anthony irvin, his story is certainly the most fascinating. Later this week, at the age 35, he will be the oldest male swimmer to compete in an individual event at the games, since 1904. But this isnt his first olympics. He won gold back in 2000. At the age of 19. And then vanished from the sport entirely. 15 meters left. Off awe w when anthony irvan tied for gold as a 19yearold in the 2000 games in sydney.

For me, getting the tattoos was a way of reclaiming my skin and regaining control of myself. Armed with ink he went back to school and started coaching at a swim camp for kids. The kids helped him remember what he loved about swimming in the first place. The water when i was a child, a place of freedom the a place a place where Everything Else can kind of fall away and into this meditative state. And i got that back. He dove back into competition, and a dozen years after his last olympics, qualified for the 2012 games. With a personal best time in the 50 meter freestyle race. But in london, he only placed fifth. He is probably the most interesting human being on our team. Maybe in the whole olympic team. Were going for the david marsh one of the u. S. Swim team head coaches.

It is a summer day in austin, as students at the university of texas stroll the campus. A day much like the one 50 years ago, long before anyone knew the term mass shooting. This is where yeah. Its the day and the spot Claire Wilson james will never see the tower. Oh, yeah. Right over you. That day was august 1, 1966. Walter cronkite anchored a special cbs news report.

Victims were cut down on west and south side of the campus as sniper zeroed in on his target with unerring accuracy. He shot at random. For more than 90 minutes. Claire, an 18yearold student, 8 months pregnant walking on campus with boyfriend tom eckman. At first didnt know what was happening. You never heard the shot . No. Then i started falling. Reporter as she fell to the pavement, her boyfriend, tom, turned to ask her what was wrong. The next thing she knew, he was lying dead next to her. And she couldnt move. You thought you were dead . I thought i was going to die. Yeah. The killer was 25yearold Charles Joseph whitman, a former marine sharpshooter. Unknown to anyone, he had already killed his w mother in their homes, before heading to the towers 2th floor Observation Deck with multiple guns. It was the first School Mass Shooting in modern u. S. History. He affect sewed many lives in that one day. Retired texas ranger, martinez was a young officer with the Police Department at the time. Arriving on campus. He couldnt believe what they going on. It was look a war. Back then, there was no such thing as Rapid Response teams. It was left to martinez and civilian, followed by a fellow officer, houston mccoy to climb to the top of the tower. To face off against the sniper and his arsenal. As martinez described it at the time. He didnt have it level. He was trying to bring it down. I could tell by impact that i hit him. I kept advancing. Shooting. Mccoy shot and hit him. And started going down. The shooter was dead. He killed 16 people that day. And injured dozens more. The mass shooting brought fundamental changes to Police Departments. And led to the creation of swat for decades at u. T. The only reminder of the terrible day could be find on this rock. Keith maitland who went to school there wondered why he never heard more. This is a story i think that anybody who grew up here has heard a little bit about. But if you want to get past just that little bit there isnt really a lot out there to kind of fill in the blanks. So he made a called tower. We can see the movement south side of the clock. It uses animation and Archive Footage to tell the story of the day. The shot hit me. Rick shade ricochetted off the building. Then what happened . Then everybody ran. What i want to understand what was it look to live through Something Like this . And how would it impact you . The worst days of your lives. Reporter in the process he wound up reconnecting people who it turned out had not seen each other since that day, 50 years ago. People like Claire Wilson james.

She was obviously pregnant. It was the most horrific day of my life. To this day . Oh, gosh, yes. I didnt go to war. That was my war. Because why . Because the blood. The death. The loss of innocence. I think what i probably learned the most is that you have to deal withdr trauma. For people who werent given an opportunity it really sits with them and kind of eats away at them over the course of the rest of their lives. Reporter even people you might not expect. Like ray martinez, who before he was a police officer, was a combat [ gunfire ] reporter he told us on the way to the tower to stop the sniper that day he was forced to run past claire as she lay bleeding on the quad without stopping to help her. That day i was thinking like a medic but also thinking like a policeman. I saw her wounded. And i felt like it was my duty to grab her and take her out of there. Reporter in the movie version of this, youre the guy the day. And you are telling me that even you, are wracked by guilt . Well, if you are a human being and you got feelings for people, yes. Reporter the university is now taking steps to remember those lost. This past week, a new larger memorial was dedicated. Listing the names of those killed.

Course manager ken powell says chub has been a fixture on the fairway for years. He believes the gafor is at least 15 feet long and likely 40 or 50 years old. When chubs comes out, play doesnt stop.

Day evidence of a trump conversion. When we reform our tax, trade, energy, and regulatory policies, we will open a new chapter in american prosperity. Yet, trumps economic proposals align with every republican president and nominee since ronald reagan. With across the board tax cuts. Federal regulations and fossil my plan will reduce the current number of brackets from seven to three and dramatically streamline the process. In a significant shift, trump scrapped his original tax plan. And embraced a less expensive one drafted by house republicans. With income tax brackets of 12, 25 and 33 . Trumps first plan had a top rate of 25 . And a more generous standard deduction. The Nonpartisan Tax Policy Center estimated trumps original plan would have cost more than 10 trillion in its first ten years. The house gop plan is about a third less costly. Trumps speech was interrupted more than a dozen times by protesters in what appeared to be a coordinated effort to throw him off course. Trump remained unfazed. While trump tried to drive his economic message. 50 high ranking Republican National security and diplomatic advisers to president s from Richard Nixon to george w.

Hedge fund guys, billionaire guys. Six guys named steve. Appant women is one factor in her widening lead. And here is another. According to the cbs news battleground tracker, 57 of virginians think she is prepared to be president. Compared to just 36 who say that about trump. After an erratic couple of weeks. She is truly unhinged. She is unbalanced. She is a monster. Clinton in the new polls as well. Just 36 of voters view her favorably. Slightly more than trump. But still lower than any winning president ial candidate in modern history. I want you to tell your friend, dont let a friend vote trump. Reporter clinton has consolidated the party around her. More than nine in ten democrats now say they plan to vote for her compared to fewer than eight in ten republicans who say that about trump. May not sound look a big difference, charlie, but it can swing an election in a country as closely divide adds this one. Nk the number of nontravel related zika infections in florida rose to 16.

Republican president ial nominee donald trump has outlined his plans to create jobs and cut taxes in a Major Economic policy speech in detroit. Long argued that business experience qualifies him to lead the worlds biggest economy. Monday he offered details on the changes he would make if he wins the presidency. Here is some of what trump had to say. I am proposing an across the board income tax reduction for middleincome americans. This will lead to millions of new, really good paying jobs. The rich will pay their fair share. But no one will pay so much that compete. Tax simplification will be a major feature of the plan. Our current tax code is so burdensome, and so complex, that we waste 9 billion hours a year in tax code compliance. My plan will reduce the current number of brackets from 7 to 3. And dramatically streamline the process. We will work with house republicans, on this plan, using the same brackets they have proposed. 12 . 25 . And 33 . For many americans, their tax rate will be 0. Under my plan, no American Company will pay more than 15 of their business income in taxes. In other words, were reducing your taxes from 35 to 15 . Small businesses will benefit the most from this plan. Require Small Business to pay as much as three times more in taxes than what i am proposing. And her owners regulations will put them totally out of business and you went be able to start. You cannot ever start a Small Business under the tremendous Regulatory Burden that you have today in our country. Massively. My plan will also help reduce the cost of child care. By allowing parents to fully deduct the average cost of child care spending from their taxes. We are also going to bring back american businesses that are now parked overseas, they cant bring their money back into our country. Our plan will bring that cash home, applying only a 10 tax. Hillary clinton will define her own Economic Vision in an address thursday. Democratic president ial nominee will lay out her case in detroit. Nancy cordes is covering the clinton campaign. An economy that works for everyone. Not just those at the top. Reporter clintons focus on the economy as trump veers offcourse. She is a monster. May be paying off. 57 of virginians tell cbs news she is prepared to be president compared to 36 who say that about trump. Name calling, probably doesnt help. She is a totally unhinged person. Shess unbalanced. The comparison enabled clinton to take the lead though she performs poorly in some a third of virginia voters think she can bring change to washington. Or that she tells the truth. So i may have short circuited it. Clinton gave a tortured explanation friday for why she mischaracterized the fbi directors comments, claiming incorrectly he said she never publicly lied about her emails. Director comey said my answers were truthful. Thats the bottom line. What i told the fbi which he said was truthful is consistent with what i said publicly. She is lying about lying. Republicans argued she was parsing her word. She has a fundamental way to say to people. I didnt lie to you. I didnt remember what i was going to say.

Mr. Amiri has been in the United States of his own free will. And he is free to go. Reporter being part of Irans Nuclear program is a dangerous game. Amiri would have known the risks. From their perspective this is how uh you treat traitors it is a little surprising to me. Amiri couldnt have anticipated to go back to iran.

No. It was supposed to be the going to the Olympic Games is an honor, enormous privilege. Gary hall, anthony irvan. Share the gold. Instead, it led to the most tumultuous time of his life. Part of what led to a lot of the angst initially was doing well and performing well, the social kind of like joy that comes from others and knowing that one has done well, and you kind of get hooked on that.

For me, getting the tattoos was a way of reclaiming my skin and regaining control of myself. Armed with ink he went back to school and started coaching at a swim camp for kids. The kids helped him remember what he loved about swimming in the water when i was a child, a place of freedom the a place of expression and play. A place where Everything Else can kind of fall away and into this meditative state. And i got that back. He dove back into competition, and a dozen years after his last olympics, qualified for the 2012 games. With a personal best time in the 50 meter freestyle race. But in london, he only placed fifth. He is probably the most interesting human being on our team. Maybe in the whole olympic team. Were going for the gold. Davidar he has known ervan since anthony was 17 years old.

Mass shootings have become an all too familiar sight on television. This past week marked 50 years since Americans First witnessed that kind of horror on tv. Anna werner takes a look back in a story for sunday morning. It is a summer day in austin, as students at the university of texas stroll the campus. A day much like the one 50 years ago, long before anyone knew the term mass shooting. Claire wilson james will never forget. As you lay here you can see the tower. Oh, yeah. Right over you. That day was august 1, 1966. Walter cronkite anchored a special cbs news report. A deranged engineering student at university of texas climbed to an austin landmark at noon how to day. A man perched atop the university of texas clock tower began firing on the people below. Victims were cut down on the west and south side of the campus as sniper zeroed in on his target with unerring accuracy. He shot at random. For more than 90 minutes. Claire, an 18yearold tom eckman. At first didnt know what was happening. You never heard the shot . No. I never heard the shot. I just felt a big jolt. Then i started falling. Reporter as she fell to the pavement, her boyfriend, tom, turned to ask her what was wrong. The next thing she knew, he was lying dead next to her. And she couldnt move. You thought you were dead . I thought i was going to die. Yeah. The killer was 25yearold Charles Joseph whitman, a former marine sharpshooter. Unknown to anyone, he had already killed his wife and mother in their homes, before heading to the towers 2th floor Observation Deck with multiple guns. It was the first School Mass Shooting in modern u. S. History. He affected so many lives in that one day. Retired texas ranger, martinez was a young officer with the Police Department at the time. Arriving on campus. He couldnt believe what they when i got out of the car, i could hear all of the shooting going on. It was look a war. Back then, there was no such thing as Rapid Response teams. It was left to martinez and civilian, followed by a fellow officer, houston mccoy to climb to the top of the tower. To face off against the sniper and his arsenal. As martinez described it at the time. He didnt have it level. He was trying to bring it down. And i just kept firing. I could tell by impact that i hit him. I kept advancing. Shooting. Mccoy shot and hit him. And started going down. The shooter was dead. He killed 16 people that day. And injured dozens more. The mass shooting brought fundamental changes to Police Departments. And led to the creation of swat teams used around the country. Reminder of the terrible day could be find on this rock. Keith maitland who went to school there wondered why he never heard more. This is a story i think that anybody who grew up here has heard a little bit about. But if you want to get past just that little bit there isnt really a lot out there to kind of fill in the blanks. She called tower. We can see the movement south side of the clock. It uses animation and Archive Footage to tell the story of the day. The shot hit me. Ricochetted off the building. Then what happened . Then everybody ran. What i want to understand what was it look to live through Something Like this . And how would it impact you . The worst days of your lives. Reporter in the process he wound up reconnecting people who it turned out had not seen each other since that day, 50 years ago. People like Claire Wilson james. Hi, claire. Hello, baby. And artly snuff. Snuff was just a teenager at the time. Thats him on the right in the dark shirt. Running out in full view of the sniper to pick claire up and carry her some 100 yard down the steps to safety. Something he says he simply felt he had to do. Because she was shot. She was obviously pregnant. It was the most horrific day of my life. To this day . Oh, gosh, yes. I didnt go to war. That was my war. Because why . Because the blood. The death. I think what i probably learned the most is that you have to deal with trauma. For people who werent given an opportunity it really sits with them and kind of eats away at them over the course of the rest of their lives. Reporter even people you might not expect. Like ray martinez, who before he was a police officer, was a combat medic. [ gunfire ] reporter he told us on the way to the tower to stop the sniper that day he was forced to run past claire as she lay bleeding on the quad without stopping to help her. That day i was thinking like a medic but also thinking like a policeman. I saw her wounded. And i felt like it was my duty to grab her and take her out of there. Version of this, youre the guy that shoots the sniper and saves the day. And you are telling me that even you, are wracked by guilt . Well, if you are a human being and you got feelings for people, yes. Reporter the university is now taking steps to remember those lost. This past week, a new larger memorial was dedicated. Listing the names of those including Claire Wilson james boyfriend and also her unborn baby. And in the shadow of the tower, there is now friendship. And healing for survivors. And from claire, Something Else. And you forgive him . Oh, yeah, how could gods forgiven me everything i have done. And he has kept me from being that kind of person. I mean, how could i not forgive a video of a massive alligator roaming a golf course is getting a lot of attention on line. David begnaud has the story behind the sighting. Reporter the golfers who took the video were in disbelief. A giant gator standing high on s the golf course. It is a sight so unreal, that chubs, as he has become known, is something of an internet phenomenon. The individually that made him famous has been viewed more than 19 million times.

What most people dont realize, these things go very short distances billion out they tire out quickly. Theyre fast. Theyre fast for a short distance. Like us old guys. You know . His head was about here. Course manager ken powell says chub has been a fixture on the fairway for years. He believes the gator is at t or 50 years old. When chubs comes out, play doesnt stop. If golfers hit a ball close to the reptile they just drop another one. And play right on through. He is not a nuisance alligator. We have no plans to have anybody come and take him away. He is not hurting anybody. Reporter once considered endangered, alligators are federally protected species. More than 1 million reptiles in habit florida. Fatal attacks on humans are rare. Only six have been recorded in the state in the last 10 years. And that includes the killing of a 2yearold boy at disney world back in june. Body of freshwater. Tim geist is a trapper and says alligators should always be treated as a potential threat. A lot of the public doesnt understand when they feed an alligator theyre creating a monster.
