Welcome to cbs this morning. Theres a global condemnation of President Trump this morning for using crude words about countries caught up in the immigration debate. In an oval office meeting, the president said why do we want all these people from expletive countries here . Lawmakers blasted the comments on twitter. Republican marco rubio said we should evaluate im. Grants based on who they are, not on the problems that exist in the nation of their birth. Margaret, good morning. Good morning. Well, the president s remark caused a political backlash here incident overseas. The lead u. S. Diplomate in haiti was formally summoned to try to explain the offensive comment. This is a pattern of racist statements. Those comments reporting as wildly inappropriate i cant defend it. I dont think anybody can. This remark by the president of the united states, max, of blatant racism. In the oval office thursday, illinois democrat dick durbin proposed restoring protection from immigrants, from haiti and el salvador as part of an immigration package. One person told cbs news the president grew frustrated and said why do we want all of these countries from expletive hole countries. We should bring in more people from places like norway. The Trump Administration recently ended protections for 200,000 u. S. After a devastating earthquake in 2001. Protections for those from haiti, nicaragua and sudan are also set to expire. A white house spokesman said, quote, certain washington politicians chose to fight for foreign countries, but President Trump will always fight for the american people. Adding mr. Trump wants to welcome those who can contribute to our society, a reference to mr. Trumps proposed immigration policy that favors the highly educated or skilled over those in need. As a candidate, mr. Trump thwarted the haitian american vote in florida. The haitian people deserve better and thats what i intend to give them. Utah republican mia love whose parents are haitian says the president must apologize, adding this behavior is unacceptable from the leader of our nation. Now the firestorm that has erupted as dimmed the process president says he so badly wanted when he spoke to us earlier this week. We will hear from the president later this morning when he signs a proclamation honoring civil rights icon Martin Luther king jr. A little irony there. And its eight years to the day of the deadly earthquake in haiti. A lot going on. Thank you very much, margaret. A oournl human rights Spokesman Says this morning, quote, you cannot dismiss entire countries and continents. It legitimizes people based on who they are. Many South Africans say they feel like targets of the president of the united states. Deborah, good morning. Good morning from south africa, which has been renamed south expletive hole by this countrys most famous export daily show host, trevor nealer. South africans arent taking too kindly from President Trumps comments. The spokesperson said given the africans arrived in the u. S. During the atlantic slave trade, this flies in the face of all accepted behavior and practice. And the leader of south africas official opposition tweeted that President Trump is promoting a racist agenda. U. S. Africa relations will take strain from this with a leader who has failed to reconcile humanity. Africans are often quick to criticize their leaders. For the most part, africans responded with humor. Morning breakfast shows began with comments like welcome to my expletive hole and some people posted gorgeous pictures of africa with comments like a beautiful sunset from my expletive hole country. Norah. Oh, my. Deborah, thank you so much. President trump says he scrapped an Upcoming Trip to london because the new u. S. Embassy is a bad deal. The president was up late the president tweeted, quote, reason i canceled my trip to london is that i am not a big fan of the Obama Administration having sold perhaps the best located and finest embassy in london for peanuts, only to build a new one in an off location for 1. 2 billion. Bad deal. Wanted me to cut ribbon. No, exclamation point. The new embassy is located about two miles from the old site. It sits on the banks of the river thames. Jonathan is outside of the new embassy. Good morning. Good morning. The over 1 billion u. S. Embassy still under construction sits on a manmade hill. It has its own load and its considered one of the most secure places in the world on paper and certainly in person. This fortress certainly lives up to the extreme security President Trump has called for in the states. But this morning, the president said he was not a blamed President Trump for the move. But President Trumps facts are off here. That bad deal was actually made by president george w. Bush in 2008. President trumps cancellation combs over backlash amid theresa mays invitation. The london mayor city khan weighed in on in this morning saying londoners have made it clear that donald trump is not welcome. However, the president s cancellation has no impact on that state visit. The offer still stands. There is no set date. John. Jonathan, thanks. A bill to continue a warrantless Internet Surveillance Program is headed to the senate after some confusion caused by a president ial tweet. The house voted 256164 to renew a portion of the foreign Intelligence Surveillance act, or fisa. The program created after 9 11 allows u. S. Intelligence to monitor the Digital Communication of foreigners living in other countries. President trump seemed to attack fisa on twitter. He suggested the program was used to, quote, surveil and abuse the trump campaign. The president corrected himself minutes later tweeting, todays vote is about if foreign surveillance. We need it. Many americans face a potentially dangerous commute this morning as a powerful storm system barrels towards the east coast. The storm already dumped up to 9 inches of snow in the plains. Snow, ice and freezing rain could lead to slick roads, Flight Cancellations and power the outages. Oh, boy. Lets see exactly where its heading. Lonnie, good morning. What do you see . Good morning. Take a look. This is our storm. The green shows you the rain. The pink and the purple sort of in this area shows you where you see the frozen ice and sleet, some snow behind it as it its 3456r7 from the west to the east. It starts off as rain for everybody. Look at this, even atlanta, some of the northern suburbs of atlanta could tap into that cold air. You look at the picture here, and this is going to be late tonight and into tomorrow, all the big rain start to go push offshore, could be ice jams because of the big melting out there. Anything wet is going to treez. High temperatures today for new york, boston, charles, with up around 60 degrees, 24 hours later, youre closer to 20 degrees. Big drop in temperatures. A lot of ice out there. Anywhere from the ohio valley up into northern new england, could see from a trace to a quarter inch of ice and thats that commuting problem, nightmare, really, that you were just talking about. Lonnie, thank you so much. And were learning more about the 17 People Killed in the california mudslide. The victims who died during the storm and mud flows early tuesday range in age from 3 to 89. Four of them were children. Authorities say the death toll 43 people are considered missing. Cart carter evans lost his parter of 17 years. Carter is the in heavily damaged montecito. Good morning. Good morning. When you look at all this destruction, its hard to imagine that anyone could have survived being swept away in a debris flow like this. In fact, a body was found right over there the other day. And now people are questioning what happened, how long did it take, and were getting firsthand accounts from survivors who lost loved ones. This is all i have. Everything is gone. All ala boha has left to remember his life partner, peter floret, are mementos he found about a had a mile from their home. He says they lived in a voluntary evacuation zone so they decided to ride out tuesdays storm. The floor felt like it had no support whatsoever. It was rolling underneath me. The mud came in andt they were soon pulled in different directions. The last thing peter yelled out to me was, lavo, grab on to some wood and dont let go. And that was the last i heard of him. Officials say they tried to give People Living in the area ample warning, via email, Text Messages and phone calls. When the storm finally hit the National Weather service put out a weaa alert, similar to an amber alert, saying flash flooding was imminent. The alert went to the thomas fire area but Santa Barbara was concerned it didnt reach certain verizon customers. They issued another warning at 3 51. Officials answered critics that those alerts came too late. We knew we couldnt have put out a weaa because it would have gone out to the entire county an i think if they had said everybody should leave, we wouldnt have seen as many people in this situation right now. Well, the office of Emergency Management says its looking into ways to approve improve the alert system. The Sheriffs Office says it issued voluntary and manned the other evacuation orders. It was working off the best information that they have, but the rain felt much harder and much faster than expected. John. Carter, thanks. Missouri governor eric greiden denies new accusations of assault as well as attempted blackmail of a former lover. The former governor admits cheating on his wife with another woman before he was elected. The womans now exhusband exposed the affair to our st. Louis afillant knov. Dean reynolds is outside the state capital in jefferson city, missouri, with the new allegations. Dean, good morning. Good morning. Governor of slapping the woman with whom he had the extra marital affair and he is very much in damage control and as some fellow republicans are asking him for more clarity. These allegations hanging out there, we need to get to the bottom of it. Republican lawmakers in missouri want answers, which is if why there is now an active criminal investigation into Governor Greitenss alleged conduct including recommendations of an affair with his hair stylest and allegations of assault. I am a very proud father. The unidentified woman appears to be detailing the affair to her now exhusband. I knew he was being sexual and i still let him. And he used some sort of tape, i dont know what it was, and taped m and then put a blindfold on me. He stepped back, i saw a flash flew the blindfold and he said, youre never going to mention my name, otherwise there will be pictures of me. He tried kissing my stomach and tried to kiss me down there but didnt quite get there. If my goal was to have inflicted political harm on the governor, i would have brought this information public before the election. Attorney Albert Watkins would represents the exhusband of the woman involved in the affair allegations Governor Greitens assaulted her. When she admitted that she had had sexual relations with her husband during a period of attempted reconciliation, that the governor slapped her. And that attorney further claims that greitens began the affair in his home while his wife was in the children. The governors lawyer denies there was any violence or blackmail involved in the affair and he says greitens is confident that the investigation will clear him. Norah. Thanks. T allegations get more and more tawdry. Mrs. Greitens said this is between me and my husband and we have worked things out. Two men at the table. Why do men do dumb things . Well, let me start the story, gayle. First the earth cooled. I can you put it well the other day. You said we dont have enough time. All right. Facebook is making big changes to what its more that 2 billion users see when they log on. Ceo Mark Zuckerberg said facebook is overhauling its news food feed from family and friends. The changes will encourage more meaningful social interactions nick, good morning. Berg. What other man hello, man. Good morning. What is facebooks incentive for changing this algorithm . Well, they have a massive attack and they have come under a lot of criticism over the last two years over what facebook is doing to society. There was the fake news criticism, the criticism from russia. But the criticism moving this is that facebook makes us unhappy. Now theyre saying, you know what . Were going to change the algorithm so what you see is the content you feel better about. Isnt this whole model based on this, selling targeted ads. Facebook thinks they will make more money better about the time they spend on facebook. So they change the algorithm to prioritize the time we share and as opposed to the stuff we look at and click on. But the thing about having your friends be prioritized, a lot of the reason people feel sad is they said their friends posting and they think, wow, they have a better life than i do. Thats where it gets into your gut. That is one of the many complicated things. Well see. Nick thompson, always good to have you here. Thank you very much.

Ahead, three things you a beautiful sunrise on this friday. Day. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Here are three things you should know this morning. You may start seeing more money in your paycheck next month. The Internal Revenue Service Published new income tax withholding tables to conform to the just passed tax overhaul law. Businesses must adopt the changes by february 15th. Treasury secretary Steve Mnuchin says that should mean more takehome pay for 90 of workers. The fbi warns giving children codeine or hydroco down. The agency is encouraging drugmakers to change labels to make it clear sirn under 18 should not use these products. The fda is encouraging manufacturers to add additional safety warnings for adults. All three major records broke highs on wall street yesterday. The Dow Jones Industrial average his 25,574. The s p 500 closed at 2,767. And the nasdaq rose to 7,211. Rising oil prices and optimism about the upcoming corporate earnings season contributed to the search. A rising number of celebrities are joining the course against gender inequality in hollywood. This follows reports that Michelle Williams was paid 80 a day to reshoot scenes for the movie all the money in the world. Her costar, Mark Wahlberg million. We look at the movie industrys history of underpaying actresses. Good morning. When people heard the numbers, it was jaw dropping. You can call this hollywoods other worst kept secret. Those scenes had to be reshot because kevin spacey, accused of being a sexual abuser, was dropped from the movie. At the time, that decision seemed like a victory for the me too movement. Whether thats still the case is unclear now. In all the money in the world, Michelle Williams character has to beg her former fatherinlaw to pay off her sons kidnappers. Christopher plumber was recast as getty. Mark wahlberg had a supporting role. I have no money to spare. With what would it take. . What would it take for you to feel secure . More. Williams quickly agreed to reshoot her scenes and even waived her standard fee. I was p to be a part of it. Unlike williams, wagbergs contract does not cover reshoots. According to usa today, he refused to shoot scenes with plumber unless he got paid for the additional work. Hollywoods pay gap was a huge topic at the critics Choice Awards last night. Actors walked the blue carpet in support of equal pay. I dearly hope theres a follow on story that addresses the imbalance. No one is better than or less than someone else. Especially if theyre in the same movie. Last year, forbes said wahlberg was hollywoods highest paid actor, making 68 million. The highest paid actress was emma stone with 26 million. Alisters jennifer lawrence, amy adams and tarajip. Henson said they have received less money that are their costars. People in very privileged compared to the rest of us, but they can spot the pay inequalities that almost all women experience, then its important. Represents for williams and wahlberg declined our requests for comments. Both actors are signed with the same agency wme. You know, this goes back to just being hollywoods worst kept secret. You can see the numbers will there. He made 68 million last year. Emma stone, i think 13414 men made more money than emma stone as the highest paid female actress. I dont necessarily blame Mark Wahlberg here, but i am looking at Michelle Williams agent if i am here. Especially since theyre at the same agencies. It would be even worse if the agents did have a conversation. And Mark Wahlberg apparently took a lower fee for this movie going into it. Who knows. Theyre not speaking out. Their mouth. That raidses a lot of questions. General motors announced an ambitious proposal overnight to remove Steering Wheels in self driving cars. They want to build vehicles with open dashboards like this cruise autonomy vehicle. Why gm has to overcome both legal obstacles and driver expectations with this concept. Chris, good morning. Good morning. Gm hopes to Start Testing those vehicles with no internal controls here soon. The department of transportation just this week announced it would start the process for creating the rules for vehicles without a Steering Wheel. But the idea of getting rid of the Steering Wheel has some drivers wanting to pump the brakes. Something is missing from this car and its a sneak peek of what the future may look like. A selfdriving smart car without a Steering Wheel or even a brake pedal. General motors says its ready to Start Building them now. Its pretty buzz wo. When you start taking away fundamental controls like the gas pedal, the brake and the Steering Wheel, it does make the prospect of autonomous driving all the more real. To get this selfdriving car on the road by 2019, gm announced this morning its filed a petition with the national Highway Traffic Safety Administration asking the government to waive some standards pertaining to humandriven cars. Selfdriving cars were big players at this Years Electronics show. But a new survey out this morning by the advocate for highway and auto safety found americans may not be quite ready to let go of the wheel. Advocate president cathy chase. We frankly were surprised with how concerned the American Public is. 64 expressed concern about sharing the roads with Driverless Cars and a full 75 are not comfortable with disconnecting vehicle equipment like that Steering Wheel. What do you think it is about the concern, people seem to have about the Steering Wheel going away . Theyve had it the entire history of the car. So taking away such an essential component of a car is a seismic shift. And assuming gm can get the approval from the federal government, the Company Believes at least seven states will allow it to test the cars with no Steering Wheel. Gm intends to work with other states. Good point, chris. I love his question, what is the reticence of taking away the Steering Wheel. Uh, it steers the car. Im trying to get used to a selfdriving car. At least let me have a Steering Wheel. Its interesting. Its a new world. It is. I am excited about it.

Ver a Million People just like you start their own businesses. Legalzoom. Where life meets legal. A government watchdog is expressing concern over the dangerous misuse of laundry detergent. In this latest social media fad, teenagers are putting detergent pods in their mouth and posting the videos online. Anna warner is here with why this is so risky. Good morning. And it might seem obvious. Whats in these things . Ingredients like polymers, a poisonous mix of detergent meant to wipe out dirt and grime. Consumers groups have been alarmed by toddlers mistakenly popping them in their mouths. Many of the social media videos are recorded and posted by minors. Theyre putting poisonous laundry pods in their mouth for internet fame. They call it the tide pod challenge. Oh, my gosh. 19yearolder mark pagan did it on a dare. He told us he knew better, but did it anyway. A lot of people are just saying how stupid i was or why would i be willing to do that. Now Authorities Say this is what started out. Annemarie is chairman of the Consumer Products safety commission. She says ingesting any of the liquid carries a risk. The pods can look like candies. At least ten deaths have been linked to ingesting the pods. Procter gamble, themaker of tide product, told if meant as a joke. Safety is no laughing matter. Cleaning powder with a child resistant top. More than 62,000 children under the age of 6 were exposed to laundry and diswashing detergents between 2013 and 2014. The next year, they could no longer recommend detergent packets, citing unique risks while urging the adoption of tougher safety measures. Her groups was worked with manufacturers to make the packets less attractive to children. Making that laundry packet opaque, less attractive, less colorful, reducing the toxicity and the strength of the laundry detergent. Elderly adults with dementia were confused by the product and some of them obviously ingested it. The danger to little kids with these things is so high that researchers in a study recommended that parents not buy them at all the if they have kids under the age years old, that the risk is too high and theyre too dangerous. They said buy regular laundry detergent. I see why theyre attractive to little guys. I get that. But teenagers for a joke on the internet makes no sense. And these are the people playing in traffic.

I cant imagine i mean, look, anybody thats been a control room at a Television Studio when something goes wrong, you learn a lot of new words. But to say this in the white house during a discussion, this is a new low. And i think he ought to be ashamed of himself. Do i understand hes now saying he didnt say it as a renewed tweet this morning . Thats what he is saying. And the white house didnt deny it. They tried to turn it into some kind of a view about his toughness on immigration. They didnt deny he said it. But what about the fact that he called them expletive hole countries when he was referring to countries that have a predominantly black population. And he said why couldnt we get people here from norway, which 99 while. And all who report theyre happy in there was a report the other day on how happy they are in norway. This is is it racist . Yeah. Yeah. How can you take it any other way . And when i say that, i dont say that lightly. But i mean, how else could one read this . And you know what, bob . This should not be a bipartisan issue. The fact that it was so unhurtful and so unkind and so demeaning to so many people, are you surprised that more republicans arent really speaking up and condemning those words . I am in some ways. But, i mean, you know, thats their business. I have my opinions and they have theirs, but i dont see how this helps them or anyone else. And i dont know where this goes. I mean, this was the most Unusual Campaign weve ever experienced. Certainly in my lifetime. This year with the coming of the wolff book, the chaos rolls on. Did you learn anything in that book that you dn that book . You know, i think he really nailed the chaos in the white house. And i think he was right on. Now, you know, you can question some of his sources and methods and all of that. But people always have asked me over the years, whats your favorite beat . The white house, i guess . And i say yeah, that was fun. But, you know, everybody in the white house, they all worker for the same guy. Its on capitol hill where you really find news because there are all these factions and all these different independent contractors and thats whats fun for a reporter. But thats really not amped any more. As the wolff book underlined, there is many factions in the white house now as there are up on capitol hill and weve never had anything like that before. And i thought he really gave you a guide. I mean, you had the spicer and the priebus wing over here. Kind of speaking for establishment republicans. You had bannon who is this new force into himself over here. You have the kushner family, they have their own spokesman. They have their own agenda. And then you have the boys, the trump boys over here. And all of these people. Theres no question about it. Theyre all leaking, theyre all having their own agendas. Weve never had anything like that. I wonder if i can get your Historical Perspective on the Mental Fitness of the president. You know, i dont know. Im going to im going to say im not a doctor and i dont know what it is, but i do say i keep wondering why does he say these things . Why does he step on his own story when youre in the middle of the tax reform and all of that . And he has the little good news and he manages to get something else, some stuff involved in it. I dont know why he does what he does. And his most recent comments come into context. He started his campaign saying mexicans are rapists. What do you think the effect will be for republicans in 2018 . You know, i think the most underreported story right now and the reason we havent reported on it is simply because you have all of these disasters that were going through with the climate at the same time this continuing ongoing chaos in the white house. I am beginning to think, for the first time, that there is a i think that the democrats may actually take the house this time. Youve had 29 republics now that have decided theyre not going to run. They only need 24 seats, the democrats, to take the house. Im not saying its going to happen, but i think its now possible. I wouldnt say its probable, but i think its possible and i think thats the big story. We havent had talk to talk about it. And were out of time to talk now, bob. Well have you back to talk about it. Sunday on face the nation, well talk to senator Corey Gardner and senator joe when it was announced you were coming on yesterday, i said what is he sdesing . Somebody said, does it matter . Its good to have him at the table. Absolutely right. I remember my last appearance. Right after scaramucci. Key followups. We do remember. We are moving right along. A baltimore hospital is apologizing after video surfaced showing a patient being dumped outside in dangerously cold weather. Go ahead and sit down. Cell phone video taken by a concerned witness shows this 22yearold woman at a bus stop wearing only a thgown and socksn freezing cold weather. The hospital failed to show basic huen manty and compassion but he calls this an isolated incident. We feel comfortable in the statement that what you saw in that video is not a process that would occur with any frequency at all. Cbs news that this young woman suffers from various Mental Health problems. Walmart says the new tax plan will trickle down to nearly a million employees. Ahead, why the retail giant is boosting pay and benefits but queen bifelizabeth is talki about one of her most important moments. Were outside Buckingham Palace with an inside look at the queens coronation from somebody who couldnt be any closer to the action. Well have the story, coming up on cbs this morning. I no wondering, what if . Uncertainties of hep c. I let go of all those feelings. Because i am cured with harvoni.

This morning, many walmart employees are looking forward to pay raises, but others are being laid off. The retail giant announced yesterday it will increase starting wages to 11 an hour. Its expanding Maternity Leave and adding parental lead. Many employees are eligible for bonuses up to 1,000. Walmart says more than a million hourly workers will benefit. That sounds like a good announcing the pay raises, the Company Announced the closing of 63 sams club stores. Up to 12 will become Fulfillment Centers for online orders. Walmart did not say how many workers would lose their jobs, but thousands could be affected. Lee gallagher join us at the table to discuss. Welcome back. Good morning. So two big announcements here. Is the timing important here . The timing is it was confusing to a lot of people. Many pr experts might say you do the bad news first and then you do the good news. But they were two big pieces of news, as well from the Number One Company on the fortune 500. So it sounded good at first, but then you hear about the layoffs. The first news, the news that walmart is raising minimum wage is part of a bigger transformation walmart has been undergoing. Under the news, not so new as of 2014. Its raised it now 10 to 11. Its rethinking how it treats its employ es. The benefits are significant including benefits for adoption for the first time and increasing the leave. So thats all good. Yes, its pegged for this tax plan as so many other companies have come out and said we are going to, you know, give everyone more money, this is wonderful. But b, you know, it is bigger than that. And then the closings are another story. Sams club, which is the companys Warehouse Division or Membership Club retailer division, has been struggling for a while now. It has been losing ground to costco. And, look, retail is really tough right now. This company is in retail warfare. So that is part of whats happening there, which is operate. The other promise of that tax bill is this would create job. Walmart is a big employer. How does this affect it . Walmart sort of sets the tone in terms of what it does with its wages. Not so long ago, it was not g this does send a message, also on the benefits side of things. Its not just about wages. The other argument is were in a tight labor market now. All companies are under pressure to raise wages from a competitive standpoint. But walmart is the number one private company employer, 2. 3 million employees. 1. 5 million in the u. S. Alone. And this, for that reason, is significant. Walmart says they hope to place some of these employees at the sams club at other stores. Whats the likelihood that that can happen . That could happen. It is a big company. It could absorb those employees. Its taking maybe 10, up to 12 of those sams clubs and repurposing them as did i say distribution fulfill many centers for ecommerce. People are buying online. Theyre trying desperately to make it possible for you to get your products as fast as you can. Fulfillment centers are a big part of the public there. Those Fulfillment Centersl its unclear how many people will be impacted by the sams club news. Leigh gallagher, good to have you here. Thank you very much. Great to be here. Oprah winfrey sat down with organizers of the times up movement after her powerful speech at the golden globe. Ahead, in a preview, Reese Witherspoon reveals what helped her share her story about sexual harassment. Youre watching cbs this morning. Sexual harassment in hollywood is gaining momentum. Oprah received applause for a powerful speech at sundays golden globes. For too long, women have not been heard or believed if they dared to speak their truth to the power of those men, but the next day, oprah spoke with organizers of the times up movement for cbs sunday morning. Shes a special contributing correspondent for the broadcast. They talked about their mission. Panelists include natalie port man, kathleen kennedy, tracie ellis ross, and reese with witherspoon. Can you speak to how the speaking out of your own truth and telling your story because i think i was in the room the very first time you shared your story, reese, and how has the speaking out of it actually led to a greater sense of empowerment and control . Well, i dont know if ive gotten to that place yet. As you can see, im very emotional about it. But i keep going back to somebody sent me this quote that said, silence helps the tormenters. It and neutrality helps the oppressors, not the oppressed. And theres moments that you have to evaluate whether silence is going to be your only option and certain times that was our only option. But now is not that time. Wow. You can see more of oprahs conversation this weekend on sunday morning right here on cbs. What a timely thing to do. And they put it together on thursday, norah, so just think about that. They were trying to make it work for saturday and it didnt and then they had it as it turns out, monday was a better time after the golden globes. And to have all those key people who were involved in the movement, youre right, i cant wait to see the conversation. Yeah. Nobody does a better conversation than oprah, yeah. She does know how to talk to people. President trump will get his First Physical today since taking the oath of office. Ahead, what the public has a right to know. We hear from a the white house medical movement. Your local news is coming right up. Welcome back to cbs this morning. Somebody is having a good day on this friday morning. Were having a good day here at the table. Agreed . You, too. Every day is a good day. I feel the same. Right now, its time for this shows runner up friday. Well debate some of the mornings headlines from around the globe. The Washington Post says that in a fast warming world, the recent cold wave was exceptionally cleared. Scientists say the recent rushing cold will become increasingly rare, they say given how much the climate has warmed, the cold blast was 15 times less likely than it would have been a hundred years ago. The Los Angeles Times reports on former president obamas appearance as the guest on the debut of David Lettermans new show. Let me just say this. If it were not for the constitution, there would be michelle. No, no, no, no. You guys are misunderstanding me. What im saying is i am prevented from running again by the constitution. But even if it were not for that amendment, michelle would leave me. And. Reporter oh, well, okay. My next guest needs no introduction. The two men discuss a range of topics, including races in america, their kids, their careers and aging. I thought one of the interesting things, too, the president said is that michelle taught him the presidency sometimes is more about shaping attitudes, shaping culture, increasing awareness. President that matters so much. I get that point. And people looks at a photo on twitter showing what it calls a sexy kangaroo walking the path to a public bathroom in australia. What does a sexy gang radio look like . Just like that. Thats hilarious. Its like the Bert Reynolds photo. That is very funny.

President trump today will get his First Physical exam since taking office. Cbs news has learned the president will fly to Walter Reed National militaryic with the white house position. Our chief medical correspondent dr. John lepuft spoke with a former head of the white house medical unit. John, good morning. Good morning, john. When he stepped into office last year, President Trump was the oldest person ever to become commander in chief. Now at 71 years of age, hes defending his fitness for office and its unclear what, if anything, the public might learn from todays checkup. I think its going to go very well. Id be very surprised if it doesnt. The president yesterday predicted a clean bill of health. After his last known exam in 2016, his long time physician, dr. Harold bornstein, wrote a onepage letter declaring him in excellent physical health. Then candidate trump shared the results on the dr. Oz show. Your doctors and family are giving you a hard time about your weight. I think i could lose a little weight. Ive always been a little bit this way. The president is a noted fast looking at that or anything else is impacting his health. There will be a complete head to toe physical exam. Dr. William lang is the former director of the white house medical unit. Is there any rule or precedent about ip forming the public how much the public has a right to know . Clearly, there is no legal requirement for any disclosure. From a medical ethical standpoint, there is no requirement for any disclosure until there is the remote case that the physician thought he was a danger to himself or others. The release of medical information by the president is something that began in the 1970s. It is not mandated. There is no constitutional obligation or no legal law that requires it. Rose has studied president ial illnesses. A lot of president s have been really sick men. A lot of that information has been hidden from the public. Woodrow wilson had a stroke franklin roosevelt, a polio patient, hid the extent of his illness from the public. John f. Kennedy took drugs for back problems and an autoimmune disorder. And there are questions about whether Ronald Reagan had symptoms of alzheimers while in office. The people in the white house are like everybody else in the country. Whats going to happen here . We dont know from daytoday. Michael wolffs book, fire and fury has sparked questions about the president s fitness. When he seemed to slur his speech during an address last month god bless the united states. The white house brushed it off, says the president s throat was dry, nothing more than that. President trump has said he has no Family History of cancer or heart disease, but that his father developed dementia. The white house said a psychiatric evaluation will not be part of the exam and dr. Lang told me it u include things like cholesterol, glucose and kidney function. An evaluation usually takes 2 to 4 hours and specialists standing by. I was wondering if there is cognitive testing, but you seemed to indicate no, there will be none of that. Not here. So what if theres the need for additional testing, the doctors see something. Is he required to administer that or reveal that . Dr. Lang explained to me that this is not a test for fitness. Its more an executive physical that gives the president an idea of how he can be healthy. So while normally he would discuss his recommendation and a accepts of what might be, you know, a recommendation to do, hes not mandated to do it. These days, we talk more about share decision making. Right. So he would say, look, you might set of urgent to do this because i have a sense that something is up, but at the en makes the final decision. What about if some procedure is needed where you have anesthesia. Well, you know, there is a like a colonoscopy. And i think during a previous colonoscopy of a president , there is a provision of the 25th amendment that a then the Vice President would then temporarily take control. And i think president bush elected not to do that with president reagan because he didnt want to have a sense of it will be interesting to see whats rereeled. Thank you very much.

One thing that stands out the, quote, horrible carriage ride that took her through aired sunday on the smithsonian channel. Charlie, good morning. Good morning to you. Picture the scene 27yearold Queen Elizabeth arriving back here at bumming ham palace, tens of thousands of people lining the streets to have a look. One person doesnt have to imagine because she remembers because she was right there on that day. When elizabeth became Queen Elizabeth, lady Ann Glenn Connor was literally an arm as length away as a maid of honor. I said, well, actually, it wasnt. It was the coronation. She was only 19 at the time and still proudly keeps her dress at home. While she and elizabeth were childhood friends, that wasnt the only reason she was picked. We had good figures, we were the right height do you really think thats true . Of course it was. It was like a production. It was like making a film. In the coronation, the queen shares for the first time her memories of that day, including the bumpy carriage ride. Horrible. It was just not its only sprung on a lever. So it rocks around a lot. Not very comfortable. Were you in it for a long time . Halfway around london. Really . We must have gone about four or five miles. Horses couldnt possibly go any faster, its so heavy.

Even sew, lady glenn connor admits to being star struck when it paid time to be her role. There was the queen. We hadnt ever seen her in her coronation dress. She turned around and she said, ready, girls . And off we went. And she said nothing will ever compare to the moment she joined the new monarch on the balcony. You could feel, physically feel with the noise coming at you. And they were mad about her. They were so happy. Now, in the documentary to be shown this weekends, the queen joked about how heavy that crown about leaning too far forward. You might break your neck and lose the crown. Charlie, thank you. And the coronation airs sunday night on the smithsonian channel, a division of cbs. Watching that, of course, i hold her in such great respect. Me, too. And i kept thinking about maybe in our lifetime, too, well get to witness another coronation. Well, we probably will. In our lifetime . What do you mean . In your lifetime. How soon is it coming .

The president has felt the need to describe himself as a stable genius. Are there people inside the white house trying to remove him from office . People in the white house are like everybody else in the country. What is going to happen here, we dont know from daytoday. No one can tell us what the teacher did wrong. Im appalled at this. Im the superintendent. Im to blame. I want all the girls watching here and now to know that a new day is on the horizon. There was a lot of reaction that she may run for president in 2020.
