Today two u. S. Army rangers were killed in eastern afghanistan during a raid on islamic militants linked to isis. Neither has been identified. David martin has more. Reporter the firetight took place just south of this isis cave complex where earlier this month the u. S. Dropped the largest nonnuclear bomb it has ever used in combat. This video, taken by local afghan police, represents the first confirmed pictures of the destruction caused by the 23,000pound Massive Ordnance Air blast bomb. U. S. Officials refused to release any estimate of the number of isis fighters killed, but say anyone above ground or hiding in the caves when the bomb hit is american officers who inspected the site reported no evidence of civilian casualties. Just a short distance south in the same valley close to afghanistans border with pakistan, several senior isis leaders were hiding out in a compound. When American Special Operations Forces along with afghan command ores conducted a Helicopter Assault on the compound, two u. S. Army rangers were killed and a third soldier wounded in a firefight which lasted about an hour. They were the second and third american servicemen to die in combat in afghanistan this year. The first, special forces Sergeant Mark de alencar, was killed when isis fighters popped out of a cave and ambushed his unit. In this latest raid several isis fighters were also killed. The u. S. Military is still trying to confirm whether they got the Senior Leaders they were after. Scott . David martin at the pentagon. Thanks. The president called his new tax cut plan the biggest in about wall streets reaction. We synchronized the white house announcement yesterday with the dow, and you might have thought, as they talked about the tax cuts for business, the index would shoot up, but it fell, bounced back, and then fell again. Perhaps because the president s plan was just a single page of bullet points with no details on how it would work and no buyin in congress. After sleeping on it the dow was essentially flat today. President trump will mark his 100th day on saturday with no legislative victories to speak of. Nancy cordes is looking at efforts to breathe life into a Health Care Bill. Yeah. Im a yes. Reporter the new measure meant to cater to conservatives has created misgivings for gop moderates. I have not decided. Reporter who worry about what it could mean for the sick. Floridas mario diazbalart. Look, ive got to talk to the state, i h t this is something that is workable. Reporter the amendment would allow states to opt out of obamacares minimum coverage requirements, which could lead to cheaper premiums for the healthy but would let insurers raise rates on those with with preexisting conditions. States that opt out would have to establish special highrisk pools for people who get priced out of the market. They work. And now that were going to be adding federal funding to it theyll work even better and youll be able to lower prices even more. Reporter so can you reassure people with preexisting conditions that they wont be worse off under your plan . People will be better off with preexisting conditions under our plan. Reporter democratic leader Chuck Schumer. Go look at these highrisk pools. Theyve closed down in state after state. They are usually so, so expensive that no one can afford health care. Its a fig leaf. Reporter Republican Leaders have not given up hope entirely that they might be able to pass this new Health Care Bill by the weekend, but at this point, scott, there are still too many members of their own party who are either undecided or oppose it.

Today United Airlines reached a settlement with dr. David dao, who was violently dragged off a plane in chicago. The amount is confidential. Daos lawyer wrote, dr. Dao has become the unintended champion for the adoption of changes which will certainly help improve the lives of literally millions of travelers. Don dahler reports changes are coming. Oh, my god. [ screaming ] reporter the video of dr. David dao being forcibly removed from united flight 3411 outraged millions and sent the nations fourth Largest Airline into a popularity plummet. United Ceo Oscar Munoz acknowledged the Public Relations crisis today and promised changes. It happened because policies were placed ahead of our shared values and procedures got in the way of what we know is right. Reporter the airline announced ten new Customer Service policies, including compensating passengers up to 10,000 for taking a later flight, using Law Enforcement officers only for safety or security issues, and additional employee training. That issue came again under the microscope with two other recent incidents. You stay out of this Reporter Video of a Heated Exchange with an american Flight Attendant went viral. And just wednesday delta kicked a man off a flight when he used the restroom when the plane was delayed on the runway. Sarah nelson is president of the association of Flight Attendants. Flight attendants are trained to deescalate conflict every single day, and actually that has become a big part of our job, now that planes are packed. Oh, my god reporter airlines involuntarily bumping seated passengers like dr. Dao is rare but not illegal. However, Congress Might change that, with not one but two bills being proposed to outlaw the practice. Some airlines arent waiting. Southwest announced today it will no longer overbook flights. United and american will also cease involuntary bumping seated passengers unless safety or security is at risk. United will now also require employees who are traveling to check in at least an hour ahead of their flights. That could lessen the need for passengers to give up their seats. Scott, the officers involved in the dr. Dao incident have been placed on leave. Don dahler, thanks. Coming up next, fatter dummies to protect fatter americans. Ialmost everything.

And heres kris van cleave. Reporter the test dummy has been used in crash after crash. For nearly 50 years this 59, 170pound dummy has been the standard. Safety features, the airbags, and most importantly the seat belts are designed around those dummies. Reporter but with americans getting taller, fatter, and older, changes are needed according to dr. Stewart wang from the university of michigans International Center for automotive medicine. Heavier people seem to get much more severe lower extremity injuries. Its pretty easy to tell which is the new big dummy. Yes, our obese dummy. Reporter Christopher Oconnor runes humeetics, the leading maker of crash test dummies. He says this new dummy, about 100 pounds her inches taller, is more like a real modernday driver. We have found that obese people, elderly people, people who dont fit that exact size and shape are more at risk in a vehicle now. Reporter do they need to switch to a larger dummy as the standard . So i dont think one replaces the other. Auto safety is based on what we measure. We need to have a test device that reflects that growing population change. Reporter with nearly 20 of drivers over 65, oconnor and dr. Wang are also developing a crash dummy to replicate an elderly, more fragile body. Unfortunately, the older population is four to eight times more likely to sustain chest injuries than a younger individual. Reporter while it will take years to get regulatory approval, car makers are already giving this big guy a test run to see if a bigger dummy means better safety.

Thats really, really cool. Reporter nate butkas brings a wideeyed wonderment to science class that only a 6yearold can. Thats amazing reporter but his interest in learning doesnt stop in the classroom. Wow. Hey, guys, im very about science. This is your host, nate. Reporter about once a month from an attic studio in his home nate records a podcast. It features eminent brains from around the world of science fielding questions on a range of topics. A wide range. What do you know about cheese bites . Reporter he started podcasting when he was 5. Youre 6 years old and youre talking to people at harvard. Yes, i am. Reporter are you at all afraid . Worried .

Im tony dokoupil. More trouble for disgraced former National Security adviser Michael Flynn. He was already under investigation by congress and the Justice Department over his financial dealings with Foreign Governments. Now the pentagon has launched a probe of its own. Jeff pegues reports. We have no evidence, not a sled, that he disclosed his payments. Reporter elijah cummings, the top democrat on the House Oversight committee, said the documents released today showed retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn may have broken the law by making a 2015 trip to moscow where he was paid nearly 34,000 to speak and was photogra a russian president vladimir putin. The first document, a letter from october 2014, was sent from the Defense Intelligence agency, or d. I. A. , to flynn shortly before his military retirement. It informed flynn, who once ran the d. I. A. , that the receipt of consulting fees from a Foreign Government was prohibited without advance approval. The pentagons warning to general flynn was bold, italicized, and could not have been clearer. Reporter but the second letter from the d. I. A. To the House Committee said it found no record of flynn seeking permission. In a Statement Today flynns attorney insisted flynn gave documents to the d. I. A. And briefed the agency both before and after the trip. Flynn is also offering to testify in exchange for immunity. But so far congress has not called him. Flynn was fired as President Trumps National Security adviser after just 24 days for lying to the Vice President about his contacts with Russian Ambassador sergey kislyak. The Vice President was also in charge of the trump transition and would have overseen the vetting of general flynn. Today White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer brushed off questions about the thoroughness of that process. But all of that clearance was made by the obama during the Obama Administration and apparently with knowledge of the trip that he took. Reporter as National Security adviser flynn had access to the countrys most sensitive secrets, which is one reason why congress is so concerned. The failure to disclose the foreign payments could result in up to five years in prison. Midnight tonight marks the start of President Trumps 100th day in office. Its also the deadline for him to sign a stopgap spending bill to keep the federal government open. But that bill may never reach the president s desk. Dpmz are threatening to skutdll the measure if Republicans Press ahead with their plan for another vote to repeal the Affordable Care act. Nancy cordes has the latest on the health care debate. Reporter conservative members always felt that the gop plan left too many of obamacares minimum coverage requirements in place, requirements they believe drive up premiums. Well, theres a new compromise that they support, and that is a big breakthrough, except that some moderates think it makes the bill worse. Certainly now were down to days, not weeks. Reporter after weeks of negotiations, members of the conservative Freedom Caucus say they are finally ready to vote yes. Were supportive of the macarthur amendment in the underlying bill as its coming forth. Reporter virginias dave brat is one member who came around. None of us are going to be totally happy. Im a free market guy. Theres better ways to move on some of this stuff, but we want the momentum to go forward, tax reform, getting the budget through and all that. Reporter this is what got him there. A new amendment allowing states to eliminate some of obamacares patient protections, including one that prevents insurers from jacking up preexisting conditions. Those states would be given some funds to set up highrisk pools, to help cover those who would no longer be able to afford insurance. This is a different twist and ive got to reexamine it. Reporter the twist meant to appease conservatives is turning off some moderates. You have to help those people that were harmed by the Affordable Care act but at the sam time not harm the people that were helped by it. We need to take a step back. Reporter penvansyl nia republican charlie dent has always been a no and believes this amendment violates one of the partys promises. Well, it could affect people with preexisting conditions. And itll make insurance probably much more expensive for them and in some cases perhaps inaccessible. Reporter the question is how many members will it affect . Gop leaders still arent sure. Could we see a vote on health care this week or next . Well see. Well vote on it when we get the votes. Another Sticking Point for several republicans i spoke to is a provision in this new plan that keeps those obamacare of congress and their aides. The authors say its in there for technical reasons but they know how it looks and theyre going to try to figure out a way to work around it. President trumps plan to overhaul the u. S. Tax code continues to leave members of congress guessing, guessing how its going to be paid for. One estimate has the price tag at 7 trillion. And thats got some deficit hawks in the gop sounding the alarm. Margaret brennan crunches the numbers. Reporter while the u. S. Has the highest Corporate Tax rate in the world and the biggest cuts in the president s plan go to Large Companies and businesses like his own, but it remains unclear how the administration will pay for a plan estimated to reduce tax revenue by 7 trillion over a decade. Going to put people back to work. Reporter President Trump said his Tax Blueprint will unleash economic growth. We will have a massive tax cut for businesses. Reporter treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin argued that slashing the Corporate Tax rate from 35 down to 15 will give businesses extra cash to hire and spend. This is not just about large corporations. Small and mediumsized businesses will be eligible for the business rate as well. Reporter that may help bring investment back to the u. S. , according to Maya Mcguinness of the Nonpartisan Committee for a responsible federal budget. This is a very aggressive, very significant Corporate Tax rate cut. And i think it would have huge effects on our competitiveness. Reporter Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer dismissed it as a giveaway to the wealthy. They dont need another huge tax break while middleclass americans and those struggling to get there need help just staying afloat. Reporter details are expected by august. And white house economic adviser gary cohn could not yet say how much of a tax break lower and middleclass americans will get. We will let you know the specific details at the appropriate moment. Reporter the goal is to simplify the tax code by whittling down t personal income tax brackets to three, with rates of 10 , 25 , and 35 . Wealthy americans like the president himself will benefit from eliminating the alternative minimum tax as well as the estate tax. Ivanka trump assured reporters tuesday that families will also receive tax credits for child and adult day care. Just how the administration will make up for all of the lost revenue without adding to the nearly 20 trillion debt is unclear. That hard work may now be up to congress. The opening bid sounds to me like they hope that somebody will ratchet it back and make it fiscally responsible. Reporter and just yesterday after floating that idea of a 24 duty on canadian lumber a white house official publicly floated the idea that the president was considering withdrawing from the north American Free trade agreement and that immediately hit the financial markets. Hours later in a phone call with the leaders of mexico and canada mr. Trump reassured them that he point and instead he plans to renegotiate nafta, Something Congress has not yet given him the authority to do. No. Have a little fun together, or a lot.

Last years president ial election could have been a battle between two new york city billionaires. Donald trump, who eventually won, and michael bloomberg. Bloomberg says he decided against running because he felt Neither Party would have him. Now the eighth richest man in the world is out of politics and focusing on philanthropy. Steve kroft spoke to him for 60 minutes. Oh, its more money than anybody could possibly spend on themselves. The issue is what can you do with it . You cant take it with you. Although i have a cartoon at home of a guy on his deathbed in a hospital with the rails around and his family looking down like vultures and he looks up and he says, i know i cant take it with me, but i can take the access code. Reporter at 75 Mike Bloomberg, as he likes to be called, is a long way from retirement. Gleaming ozlike tower that bears his companys name, a highenergy egalitarian workplace at the crossroads of media, information technology, and capitalism. This is an incredible building. Office building. It looks like i dont know what it looks like. What im trying to do is to create excitement so people say my goodness, whats going on here, theres Something Different about this company. The employees, you want them to get psyched. And its a chance to meet each other. My job is to get people to work together. Reporter with free food and no offices, even for bloomberg, this might be considered one of the worlds great corporate headquarters. If it werent for the fact that bloomberg lp is not a corporation. Its a limited partnership, a private company. And 85 of all of this and a lot more belongs to Mike Bloomberg. Is this a Technology Company . Is it an Information Company . Yes and yes. We try to get information people need, store it, you use it. Reporter when bloomberg started out as a clerk on the wall street trading desk of Salomon Brothers in 1966, he thought there must be a better way to get uptotheminute Financial Data than combing through the wall street journal. He spent 15 years trying to convince his partners at salomon that computers could be the answer. And when they fired him in 1981, he used his 10 million severance to hire three young engineers and launch his startup. When i started the company, it was before pcs were invented. I know you dont think there was a day. We literally built our own. And the internet hadnt been invented. So we created our own. Wed run a telephone line and it had a device that let you branch out when you got to chicag or wherever. Reporter ever since then Mike Bloomberg has pretty much done things the way he wants to. Where else have you seen a curved escalator . We needed a curved one that fit into the space, and the architect said it doesnt exist. And i said you go to why not, youll find a curved one. And they did reporter bloomberg has a degree in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins university, and it is that discipline of an engineer that defines his character and personality. Detached, analytical, pragmatic. These are some of the words that people have used to describe you. Are these my relatives or no, no, no. I dont think so. Well, maybe. Depends whether its good or bad. Blunt. I tend to be reasonably blunt. Maybe a little bit too much. But i just i always respected people that tell the truth, and ive always wanted people to tell me the truth. Selfconfident. Reasonably selfconfident. Been successful. I dont think that im infallible. Will always make mistakes. Arrogant. Youve certainly heard people say that. I suppose i come across that way sometimes. But my mother would have told me mother would probably forgive him for the occasional lapse of humility, given the size and the scope of the bloomberg empire. Nearly 20,000 employees in 192 locations around the world, gathering, writing, transmitting and analyzing information that will move markets. These people are doing oneminute Radio Business updates for 100 different radio stations around the country. Reporter but the real money and most of the profits come from a mysterious piece of equipment known as the bloomberg certainly that sits on the desks of titans and traders. This is my desk. Reporter all over the world. Sound, pictures, graphics, tab lar data. Different ways to look at the markets. Reporter its really a customized keyboard and closely guarded proprietary software linked to a private Computer Network that provides a volume of data thats unavailable anywhere else. Livestreams from 300 stock exchanges, curated exact location of oil tankers around the world. The kind of stuff 325,000 professionals pay 25,000 to rent for one year. If you do the math, it adds up to about 8 billion. But lets say you want to look at a stock, General Motors, for example. Reporter after using his fingerprint to log on to his account, bloomberg gave us a peek behind the curtain. On the left are all of the companies that sell parts to General Motors, and on the right are all of the companies that buy General Motors output. Generally cars. The different indices that General Motors stock is in. Here are the other companies that compete with them. Here are the big holders of their stock. Analysts that follow it. Whos on the board. Who works on the company. Why has nobody else done this . For an individual company to do it its probably too expensive. Unless its your business. This is our business. Reporter bloomberg has not only left his mark on wall street, he has left it on new york city. He took Us Helicopter he was piloting to have a look. Helicopter 6 mike victor. Reporter the thing he likes best about flying, he said, is if you dont follow the rules you die. By 2001 bloomberg was already worth 5 billion and looking for a new challenge. He wanted to run Something Big like the u. N. Or the world bank. He settled on new york city, taking leave from his job and spending a quarter of a billion dollars of his own money to get himself elected mayor, three times. Here is the new world trade center. You can see the big Tall Building and others. Reporter the first time he was elected was just two months after 9 11. He managed the resurrection from the rubble. Right through there you can see the oculus, which is this big shopping lane. This whole part of manhattan before was sort of desolate. After 9 11 we now have 25 hotels. Now its a bustling Residential Community as well. Reporr through the economic crisis of 2008. And while he was mayor development and construction boomed and the crime rate dropped. Hudson yards, which is this big development, phenomenally successful development, created enormous amount of jobs, enormous amount of new office space. Reporter he was sometimes ridiculed for his Public Health war on smoking, trans fats, and soft drinks, but he points out Life Expectancy of new yorkers increased by three years while he was in office. Did you enjoy your time as mayor . Loved every minute of it. Its a wonderful job, and the challenges are enormous but you have a great opportunity to make a difference. Reporter he was successful enough in the job to twice consider running for president. But he was never able to find a solid constituency in either party. Last year he thought about running as an independent and was prepared to spend a billion dollars of his fortune to get elected, aides say. Hed even decided on retired admiral mike mullen as a running mate. You came close, you looked at it, but you didnt pull the had a reasonable chance, i would have done it. It would be totally unlikely, very unlikely that an independent could win. And in my case i was mayor for a long time, people where i stand. I couldnt pretend to be something im not. So the republicans, im pro choice, pro gay rights, pro immigration. Thats a good start there. Youll never get their nomination. On the democratic side i believe in teacher evaluation. The big banks, we need to help them rather than just trying to tear them down. That is not particularly things that will help you get the nomination. Reporter he campaigned hard against donald trump, his new york rival in the general election, calling him a con man at the Democratic Convention in philadelphia. Im a new yorker, and i know a con when i see one. Have you spoken to trump since hes in the white house . Yes, once. I called him and congratulated him. We joked about my speech in philadelphia. And before he finished the conversation he gave me his personal phone number, cell phone. I havent called him. So i dont know whether hed answer it now. But i hope he does a good job. Youre not going to run for office again . Well, im 75 years old. It would be an age issue, i suppose. Ive got plenty of things to do.

The latest, swarms of drones creating light shows in the night sky. Carter evans has that. Reporter in the california desert these socalled shooting star drones turn the dark of night into a canvas in the sky. For coachella weve integrated different animations. A ferris wheel, which is super iconic for coachella. Reporter natalie chungs team at intel has been in the drone lights business for about a year and a half.

We have this master computer. That is the pilot. And that manages the whole fleet as we call it. Reporter intel works closely ppermission to launch a drone swarm. Faa regulations require one pilot per drone, and they can only fly during daylight. But intel was granted a waiver. So one pilot with a laptop can control multiple drones at night but never directly above an audience. But one of the best parts of the show is something the public doesnt get to see. Ive got to tell you, thats one of the coolest things, that shot of all the drones coming down. It looks like a tornado. Its just so beautiful just to see all these stars and drones just falling down gracefully. Theres a slight little buzz around you. Its great.

Reporter they only met that once, but these two professional athletes because a few months before he died conrad checked the organ donor box on his drivers license application. Welcome. Reporter and by sheer coincidence the man who received his heart was none other than rod carew. Good to see you. Youre a part of our family now. Yes. Forever. Yes. Reporter the two families got together recently at the reulands house in orange county, california. Im going to ask mom to listen to his heart and tell me how beautiful it sounds. That was really cathartic for me to be able to hear it again. Reporter every heartbeat is unique. There it is. Reporter and she said this one was unquestionably konrads. Ive got it memorized. Reporter when konrad sent his mom that text saying he felt like god still had a plan for him, he obviously thought he would go on living. And now we know. He will. Steve hartman, on the road in orange county, california. And thats the overnight news for this friday. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im tony dokoupil. A new investigation of flynn. I honestly do not understand why the white house is covering up for Michael Flynn. I was frankly taken back by his comments today because theyre frankly not true. Also tonight, on day 98 a message from the coal mines to the whituse hoe. We supported him. Now its time for him to support us. United and this passenger have reached a settlement as the Airline Announces a new compensation policy. H crasiedumme s aringaing weight to better reflect america. And a pintsized mr. Wizard. With his own show. I think its actually just my im a 50yearold man in a 6yearold body. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Retired general Michael Flynn, President Trumps first National Security adviser, is now the target of five investigations into his ties with russia. The latest was opened by the Inspector General of the defense department, investigating whether flynn, before he joined the administration, took money from a Foreign Government without the required approval. The president fired flynn for lying to Vice President pence about contacts hed had with russias u. S. Ambassador. Now a top House Democrat is releasing documents that could spell legal trouble for flynn. Heres our justice correspondent, jeff pegues. We have no evidence, not a shred, that he disclosed his payments. Reporter elijah cummings, the top democrat on the House Oversight committee, said the documents released today showed retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynnmay have broken the law by making a 2015 trip to moscow, where he was paid nearly 34,000 to speak and was photographed at a dinner with russian president vladimir putin. The first document, a letter from october 2014, was sent from the Defense Intelligence agency, or d. I. A. , to flynn shortly before his military retirement. It informed flynn, who once ran the d. I. A. , that the receipt of consulting fees from a Foreign Government was prohibited without advance approval. The pentagons warning to general flynn was bold, italicized, and could not have been clearer. Reporter but the second letter from the d. I. A. To the House Committee said it found no record of flynn seeking permission. In a Statement Today flynns attorney insisted flynn gave documents to the d. I. A. And briefed the agency both before and after the trip. Flynn has also offered to testify in exchange for immunity. But so far congress has not called him. Flynn was fired as President Trumps National Security adviser after just 24 days for lying to the Vice President about his contacts with Russian Ambassador sergei kislyak. The Vice President was also in charge of the trump transition and would have overseen the vetting of general flynn. Today White House Press Secretary Sean Spicer brushed off questions about the thoroughness of that process. But all of that clearance was made by the during the Obama Administration, and apparently with knowledge of the trip that he took. Reporter as National Security adviser flynn had access to the countrys most sensitive secrets, which is one reason why congress is so concerned. Scott, the failure to disclose the foreign payments could result in up to five years in washington newsroom. Today under pressure from the neighbors the president backed off his threat to scrap the north American Free trade agreement, opting instead to renegotiate it. Major garrett is at the white house. Well, i was going to terminate nafta as of two or three days from now. Reporter but President Trump will not pull the u. S. Out of the 24yearold Free Trade Agreement with canada and mexico, only try to negotiate a better deal. Last night mr. Trump spoke with mexican president Enrique Pena Nieto and canadian Prime Minister justin trudeau. I like them very much. I respect their countries very much. The relationship is very special. And i said i will hold on the termination, lets see if we can make it a fair deal. Reporter the calls came after the administration floated a draft executive order that would have withdrawn the u. S. From nafta immediately. Canada is americas number two trading partner. Combined, the two account for more than 29 of all u. S. Trade. Do you have a time frame in mind for the nafta negotiation, any deadline . It will start very soon. Reporter renegotiation is a long process that will eventually require congressional approval. Candidate trump branded nafta a failure and made this promise a signature of his campaign. All i can tell you is that nafta is a disaster. What difference does it make . We will fix nafta. Or well terminate it and start all over again. Reporter today Prime Minister trudeau warned the president against acting rashly. A disruption like canceling nafta, even if it theoretically eventually might lead to better outcomes, would cause a lot of short and mediumterm pain. Reporter ten years ago the u. S. Trade deficit with canada ran about 70 billion. Last year only 11 billion. Scott, it appears Big Companies in both canada and mexico have president was mostly bluffing and that tough trade talks are weeks if not months away. Major garrett at the white house. We turn now from major to miners. Coal miners, watching to see whether the president keeps his promises. Heres jim axelrod. Reporter theyre worried about a lot of things in the coal mines of western pennsylvania. But how the president is doing at 100 days just isnt one of them. Rome wasnt built in a day, you know. Its a process. You have to see how things go. Everyone wants to cut him down. Its only been 100 days. Reporter Brian Thompson has 20 years in the mines. Tim hroblak 39, before retiring five years ago. And i love the miners, and were going to put the miners back to work. Okay . Reporter the candidate who spoke so forcefully about saving their jobs and for those miners get ready because youre going to be working your asses off. All right . Reporter is a president whose support here remains strong. The protests and low poll numbers, just not a problem. Thats just noise to you . I mean, that kind of stuff wont keep me up at night. If i lose my Health Insurance, thatll keep me up at night. Reporter Health Insurance. That is where some real cracks are forming. The federal fund that guarantees union miners their Health Insurance and pension benefits will soon be empty. If nothing is done by sunday, 22,000 retired miners and their families could lose those health benefits. Do you feel like the president he let us down. Reporter that the president has yet to fix this has miners tony burnsak and Randy Kasunic reconsidering their support. He promised in this area, west virginia, kentucky, ohio that he would take care of the coal miners. He took care of the coal companies, okay . But he hasnt done nothing for the miners yet. You hear a little bit of, you know, whats going on in congress, but as far as trump hes pretty much been silent. Reporter and if mr. Trump doesnt deliver for them soon, they may stop delivering for him. We supported him. Now its time for him to support us. Today two u. S. Army rangers were killed in eastern afghanistan during a raid on islamic militants linked to isis. Neither has been identified. David martin has more. Reporter the firefight took place just south of this isis cave complex where earlier this month the u. S. Dropped the largest nonnuclear bomb it has ever used in combat. This video, taken by local afghan police, represents the first confirmed pictures of the destruction caused by the 0023,0pound Massive Ordnance Air blast bomb. U. S. Officials refused to release any estimate of the number of isis fighters killed, but say anyone above ground or hiding ie bomb hit is now dead. American officers who inspected the site reported no evidence of civilian casualties. Just a short distance south in the same valley close to afghanistans border with pakistan, several senior isis leaders were hiding out in a compound. When American Special Operations Forces along with afghan command ores conducted a Helicopter Assault on the compound, two u. S. Army rangers were killed and a third soldier wounded in a firefight which lasted about an hour. They were the second and third american servicemen to die in combat in afghanistan this year. The first, special forces Sergeant Mark de alencar, was killed when isis fighters popped out of a cave and ambushed his unit. In this latest raid several isis fighters were also killed. The u. S. Military is still trying to confirm whether they got the Senior Leaders they were after. Scott . David martin at the pentagon. Thanks. The president called his new tax cut plan the biggest i about wall streets reaction. We synchronized the white house announcement yesterday with the dow, and you might have thought, as they talked up the tax cuts for business, the index would shoot up, but it fell, bounced back, and then fell again. Perhaps because the president s plan was just a single page of bullet points with no details on how it would work and no buyin in congress. After sleeping on it the dow was essentially flat today. President trump will mark his 100th day on saturday with no legislative victories to speak of. Nancy cordes is looking at efforts to breathe life into a Health Care Bill. Yeah. Im a yes. Reporter the new measure meant to cater to conservatives has created misgivings for gop moderates. I have not decided. Reporter who worry about what it could mean for the sick. Floridas mario diazbalart. Look, ive got to talk to the state, i have to talk to the governor, i have to make sure this is something that is workable. Allow states to opt out of obamacares minimum coverage requirements, which could lead to cheaper premiums for the healthy but would let insurers raise rates on those with preexisting conditions. States that opt out would have to establish special highrisk pools for people who get priced out of the market. They work. And now that were going to be adding federal funding to it, theyll work even better and youll be able to lower prices even more. Reporter so can you reassure people with preexisting conditions that they wont be worse off under your plan . People will be better off with preexisting conditions under our plan. Reporter democratic leader Chuck Schumer. Go look at these highrisk pools. Theyve closed down in state after state. They are usually so, so expensive that no one can afford health care. Its a fig leaf. Reporter Republican Leaders have not given up hope entirely that they might be able to pass this new Health Care Bill by the weekend, but at this point, scott, there are still too many members of their own party who are either undecided or oppose it. Nancy cordes on capitol hill. Thank you. Still ahead on the cbs evening news, a settlement and big changes after that ugly incident on united. And look out, sheldon cooper.

Today United Airlines reached a settlement with dr. David dao, who was violently dragged off a plane in chicago. The amount is confidential. Daos lawyer wrote, dr. Dao has become the unintended champion for the adoption of changes which will certainly help improve the lives of literally millions of travelers. Don dahler reports changes are coming. Oh, my god. [ screaming ] reporter the video of dr. David dao being forcibly removed from united flight 3411 outraged millions and sent the nations fourth Largest Airline into a popularity plummet. United Ceo Oscar Munoz acknowledged the Public Relations crisis today and promised changes. It happened because policies were placed ahead of our shared values and procedures got in the way of what we know is right. Reporter the airline announced ten new Customer Service policies, including compensating passengers up to 10,000 for taking a later flight, using Law Enforcement officers only for safety or security issues, and additional employee training. That issue came again under the microscope with two other recent incidents. You stay out of this Reporter Video of a Heated Exchange with an american Flight Attendant went viral. And just wednesday delta kicked a man off a flight when he used the restroom while the plane was delayed on the runway. Sarah nelson is president of the association of flight atnd Flight Attendants are trained to deescalate conflict every single day, and actually that has become a big part of our job, now that planes are packed. Oh, my god reporter airlines involuntarily bumping seated passengers like dr. Dao is rare but not illegal. However, Congress Might change that, with not one but two bills being proposed to outlaw the practice. Some airlines arent waiting. Southwest announced today it will no longer overbook flights. United and american will also cease involuntary bumping seated passengers unless safety or security is at risk. United will now also require employees who are traveling to check in at least an hour ahead of their flights. That could lessen the need for passengers to give up their seats.

Sorry to say the average american is about 20 pounds heavier than 40 years ago. Well, that means crash test dummies need some serious body work. And heres kris van cleave. Reporter the test dummy has been used in crash after crash. For nearly 50 years this 59, 170pound dummy has been the standard. Safety features, the airbags, and most importantly the seat belts are designed around those dummies. Reporter but with americans getting taller, fatter, and older, changes are needed according to dr. Stewart wang from the university of michigans International Center for automotive medicine. Heavier people seem to get much more severe lower extremity injuries. Its pretty easy to tell which is the new big dummy. Yes, our obese dummy. Reporter Christopher Oconnor runs humanetics, leading maker of crash test dummies. He says this new dummy, about 100 pounds heavier and four inches taller, is more like a real modernday driver. We have found that obese people, elderly people, people who dont fit that exact size and shape are more at risk in a vehicle now. Reporter do they need to switch to a larger dummy as the standard . So i dont think one replaces the other. Auto safety is based on what we measure. We need to have a test device that reflects that growing population change. Reporter with nearly 20 of drivers over 65, oconnor and dr. Wang are also developing a crash dummy to replicate an elderly, more fragile body. Unfortunately, the older population is four to eight times more likely to sustain chest injuries than a younger individual. Reporter while it will take years to get regulatory approval, car makers are already giving this big guy a test run to see if a bigger dummy means better safety.

From the Broadcast Center in new york city im scott pelley. Announcer this is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im tony dokoupil. More trouble for disgraced former National Security adviser Michael Flynn. He was already under investigation by congress and the Justice Department over his financial dealings with Foreign Governments. Now the pentagon has launched a probe of its own. Jeff pegues reports. We have no evidence, not a sled, that he disclosed his payments. Reporter elijah cummings, the top democrat on the House Oversight committee, said the documents released today showed retired Lieutenant General Michael Flynn may have broken the law by making a 2015 trip to moscow where he was paid nearly 34,000 to speak and was photographed at a dinner with russian president vladimir the first document, a letter from october 2014, was sent from the Defense Intelligence agency, or d.

Reporter as National Security adviser flynn had access to the countrys most sensitive secrets, which is one reason why congress is so concerned. The failure to disclose the foreign payments could result in up to five years in prison. Midnight tonight marks the start of President Trumps 100th day in office. Its also the deadline for him to sign a stopgap spending bill to keep the federal government open. But that bill may never reach the president s desk. Democrats are threatening to scuttle the measure if Republicans Press ahead with their plan for another vote to repeal the Affordable Care act. Nancy cordes has the latest on the health care debate. Reporter conservative members always felt that the gop plan left too many of obamacares minimum coverage requirements in place, requirements they believe drive up premiums. Well, theres a new compromise that they support, and that is a big breakthrough, except that some moderates think it makes the bill worse. Certainly now were down to days, not weeks. Reporter after weeks of negotiations, members of the conservative Freedom Caucus say they are finally ready to vote yes. Were supportive of the macarthur amendment in the underlying bill as its coming forth. Reporter virginias dave brat is one member who came around. None of us are going to be totally happy. Im a free market guy. Theres better ways to move on some of this stuff, but we want the momentum to go forward, tax reform, getting the budget through and all that. Reporter this is what got him there. A new amendment allowing states to eliminate some of obamacares patient protections, including one that prevents insurers f jacking up rates for people with preexisting conditions. Those states would be given some funds to set up highrisk pools, to help cover those who would no longer be able to afford insurance. This is a different twist and ive got to reexamine it. Reporter the twist meant to appease conservatives is turning off some moderates. You have to help those people that were harmed by the Affordable Care act but at the same time not harm the people that were helped by it. We need to take a step back. Reporter Pennsylvania Republican charlie dent has always been a no and believes this amendment violates one of the partys promises. Well, it could affect people with preexisting conditions. And itll make insurance probably much more expensive for them and in some cases perhaps inaccessible. Reporter the question is how many members will it affect . Gop leaders still arent sure. Could we see a vote on health care this week or next . Well see. Well vote on it when we get the votes. Another Sticking Point for several republicans i spoke to is a provision in this new plan that keeps those obamacare protections in place for members of congress and their aides. The authors say its in there for technical reasons but they know how it looks and theyre going to try to figure out a way to work around it. President trumps plan to overhaul the u. S. Tax code continues to leave members of congress guessing, guessing how its going to be paid for. One estimate has the price tag at 7 trillion. And thats got some deficit hawks in the gop sounding the alarm. Margaret brennan crunches the numbers. Reporter while the u. S. Has the highest Corporate Tax rate in the world and the biggest cuts in the president s plan go to Large Companies and businesses like his own, but it remains unclear how the administration will pay for a plan estimated to reduce tax revenue by 7 trillion over a decade. Going to put people back to work. Reporter President Trump said his Tax Blueprint will unleash economic growth. We will have a massive tax cut for businesses. Reporter treasury secretary Steven Mnuchin argued that slashing the Corporate Tax rate from 35 down to 15 will give businesses extra cash to hire and spend. This is not just about large corporations. Small and mediumsized businesses will be eligible for the business rate as well. Reporter that may help bring investment back to the u. S. , according to Maya Mcguinness of the Nonpartisan Committee for a responsible federal budget. This is a very aggressive, very significant Corporate Tax rate cut. And i think it would have huge effects on our competitiveness. Reporter Senate Minority leader Chuck Schumer dismissed it as a giveaway to the wealthy. They dont need another huge tax break while middleclass americans and those struggling to get there need help just staying afloat. Reporter details are expected by august. And white house economic adviser gary cohn could not yet say how much of a tax break lower and middleclass americans will get. We will let you know the specific details at the appropriate moment. Reporter the goal is to simplify the tax code by personal income tax brackets to three, with rates of 10 , 25 , and 35 . Wealthy americans like the president himself will benefit from eliminating the alternative minimum tax as well as the estate tax. Ivanka trump assured reporters tuesday that families will also receive tax credits for child and adult day care. Just how the administration will make up for all of the lost revenue without adding to the nearly 20 trillion debt is unclear. That hard work may now be up to congress. The opening bid sounds to me like they hope that somebody will ratchet it back and make it fiscally responsible. Reporter and just yesterday after floating that idea of a 24 duty on canadian lumber a white house official publicly floated the idea that the president was considering withdrawing from the north American Free trade agreement and that immediately hit the financial markets. Hours later in a phone call with the leaders of mexico and canada mr. Trump reassured them that he was not going to do that at this point and instead he plans to renegotiate nafta, Something Congress has not yet given him the authority to do.

Last years president ial election could have been a battle between two new york city billionaires. Donald trump, who eventually won, and michael bloomberg. Bloomberg says he decided against running because he felt Neither Party would have him. Now the eighth richest man in the world is out of politics and focusing on philanthropy. Steve kroft spoke to him for 60 minutes. Oh, its more money than anybody could possibly spend on themselves. The issue is what can you do with it . You cant take it with you. Although i have a cartoon at home of a guy on his deathbed in a hospital with the rails around and his family looking down like vultures and he looks up and he says, i know i cant take it with me, but i can take the access code. Reporter at 75 Mike Bloomberg, as he likes to be called, is a long way from retirement. Most days youll find him in the gleaming ozlike tower that bears his companys name, a highenergy egalitarian workplace at the crossroads of media, information technology, and capitalism. This is an incredible building. Office building. It looks like i dont know what it looks like. What im trying to do is to create excitement so people say my goodness, whats going on here, theres Something Different about this company. The employees, you want them to get psyched. And its a chance to meet each other. My job is to get people to work together. Reporter with free food and no offices, even for bloomberg, this might be considered one of the worlds great corporate headquarters. If it werent for the fact that bloomberg lp is not a corporation. Its a limited partnership, a private company. And 85 of all of this and a lot more belongs to Mike Bloomberg. Is this a Technology Company . Is it an Information Company . Yes and yes. We try to get information people need, store it, present it, let you use it. Reporter when bloomberg started out as a clerk on the wall street trading desk of Salomon Brothers in 1966, he thought there must be a better way to get uptotheminute Financial Data than combing through the wall street journal. He spent 15 years trying to convince his partners at salomon that computers could be the answer. And when they fired him in 1981, he used his 10 million severance to hire three young engineers and launch his startup. When i started the company, it was before pcs were invented. I know you dont think there was a day. We literally built our own. And the internet hadnt been invented. So we created our own. Wed run a telephone line and it had a device that let you branch out when you got to chicago or wherever. Reporter ever since then Mike Bloomberg has pretty much done things the way he wants to. Where else have you seen a curved escalator . We needed a curved one into the space, and the architect said it doesnt exist. And i said you go to japan, youll find a curved one. And they did of course. Reporter bloomberg has a degree in Electrical Engineering from Johns Hopkins university, and it is that discipline of an engineer that defines his character and personality. Detached, analytical, pragmatic. These are some of the words that people have used to describe you. Are these my relatives or no, no, no. I dont think so. Well, maybe. Depends whether its good or bad. Blunt. I tend to be reasonably blunt. Maybe a little bit too much. But i just i always respected people that tell the truth, and ive always wanted people to tell me the truth. Selfconfident. Reasonably selfconfident. Been successful. I dont think that im infallible. Will always make mistakes. Arrogant. Youve certainly heard people say that. I suppose i come across that way sometimes. But my mother would have told me dont. Reporter even his late mother would probably forgive him for the occasional lapse of humility, given the size and the scope of the bloomberg empire. Nearly 20,000 employees in 192 locations around the world, gathering, writing, transmitting and analyzing information that will move markets. These people are doing oneminute Radio Business updates for 100 different radio stations around the country. Reporter but the real money and most of the profits come from a mysterious piece of equipment known as the bloomberg certainly that sits on the desks of titans and traders. This is my desk. Reporter all over the world. Sound, pictures, graphics, tabular data. Different ways to look at the markets. Reporter its really a customized keyboard and closely guarded proprietary software linked to a private computer of data thats unavailable anywhere else. Livestreams from 300 stock exchanges, curated tweets, the exact location of oil tankers around the world. The kind of stuff 325,000 professionals pay 25,000 to rent for one year. If you do the math, it adds up to about 8 billion. But lets say you want to look at a stock, General Motors, for example. Reporter after using his fingerprint to log on to his account, bloomberg gave us a peek behind the curtain. On the left are all of the companies that sell parts to General Motors, and on the right are all of the companies that buy General Motors output. Generally cars. The different indices that General Motors stock is in. Here are the other companies that compete with them. Here are the big holders of their stock. Analysts that follow it. Whos on the board. Who works on the company. Why has nobody else done this . For an individual company to do it its probably too expensive. Unless its your business. Reporter bloomberg has not only left his mark on wall street, he has left it on new york city. He took us up in a Company Helicopter he was piloting to have a look. La guardia helicopter 6 mike victor. Reporter the thing he likes best about flying, he said, is if you dont follow the rules you die. By 2001 bloomberg was already worth 5 billion and looking for a new challenge. He wanted to run Something Big like the u. N. Or the world bank. He settled on new york city, taking leave from his job and spending a quarter of a billion dollars of his own money to get himself elected mayor, three times. Here is the new world trade center. You can see the big Tall Building and others. Reporter the first time he was elected was just two months after 9 11. He managed the resurrection from the rubble.
