Quijano in addition to overseeing u. S. Relations with other countries, the next secretary of state will have to address accusations of wasteful spending at the state department. Cbs news has obtained a draft of a new congressional report on how much the u. S. Is spending to build new embassies. Heres margaret brennan. Americas striking new embassy in london comes with a sizeable price tag. The facility, a steelframed cube surrounded by glass will soon exceed its more than 1 billion projection, according to house oversited Committee Jason chaffetz w i feel mislead because if we arent opening toors in the doors in february the cost is about 100,000 a day in a facility that we dont use. That facility, the existing u. S. Embassy will be used to house our personnel until the new London Embassy is ready. A six month leases agreement according to chaffetz accounts for nearly 22 million cost increase. The House Oversight committees two year investigation found quibbling over a glass wall at the embassy in indonesia cost tens of millions of dollars in change order requests. And nearly 3 million was spent on art at the u. S. Embassy in pakistan. One of the biggest bills came from mexico where the u. S. Gofd paid 120 million for a 15 acre lot and 56 million on the design of the Diplomatic Mission but nothing has been built there yet. Chaffetz who visited the site say costs will climb above 943 million estimate. Something has to change because they are building slower, coming in overbudget, they are not necessarily secure and so austentacious. For the next secretary of state, is that top of the list. I think mr. Trump will get it and know how to fix it and fix it in a hurry. But the strict Security Standards of building a post for classified diplomatic work isnt your typical real estate project. State Department Deputy spoke mns mark toner. Do you have any kind of time line as to when these embassies will be both secure and finished. All i can say is that our Diplomatic Security bureau and overseas Buildings Operations Bureau and our Management Bureau work handinhand to ensure that safety is fore most, first and fore most. Reporter state Department Officials told us that new Safety Standards require upgrading these embassies, and how the buildings look does affect perception of the u. S. At the end of the day the state Department Says all these projects will remain w budget. Marring he receipt brennan, cbs news, the white house.

Put your hands together. Reporter its sunday morning and First Baptist church is making a joyful noise. Just around the corner First Baptist church of kleist is starting its worship. Like many churches in america, the difference between the two is pretty much black and white. That is sphirs baptist church, the one i pastor. And you are First Baptist church of kleist. And you guys have been just around the corner from each other for how long . Since 1887. And how often have you guys interacted one with another . Maybe once or twice. Reporter pastor Scott Dickison and James Goolsby meeted two years ago and decided it was time for their congregation get to know each other because not only do their churches share a name but they share a history. In 1826 there was only one First Baptist church in macon, white front with their slaves in the back. But by 1845 Church Records show that the slaves outnumbered their owners two to one. So a separate church for blacks was formed. Most people are familiar with the doctor Martin Luther king, jr. Said, the most segregated hour in america is worship hour, is that still the case . The reality is yes, it still is. I think so. But i also think that we wouldnt worry so much about that one hour a week of being divided if we werent so di sided the divided the other hours of the week. After at tragic murders at a Charleston Church last year the two pastors got their churches together for a series of meetings to talk about race and its impact on their if we were the only nonafroamerican people. On this night just before thanksgiving, Church Members met to break bread. And walls that have separated them for years. One daughter said and one daughter said white, i think that was my first consciousness. For three hours they shared funny stories and sad ones too. And by the end of the night, the two congregations grew closer. We talked to members of both churches the next day. 19 year old Ethan Thompson may have summed it up best this has taught me that despite what the world is telling us right now, that this kind of conversation is possible.
