Disappointment i have left behind at home and at nbc. Lauer seen near his home in the hamptons today said some of the allegations are untrue or mischaracterized, but there is enough truth in these stories to make me feel embarrassed and ashamed. Nbc says two women in addition to the female employee whose complaint led to lauers firing have come forward. Also, one woman told the New York Times that she was sexually assaulted by lauer in his office in 2001. And some of lauers female colleagues told variety magazine that he summoned them to his hotel room at night during nbcs olympic coverage. Some told variety their complaints to management fell on deaf ears. Variety reporters Elizabeth Wagmeister and Ramin Setoodeh wrote the story. Matt lauers persona is a very squeaky Clean America dad is very different than his private persona where he focused on women at the today show. And there was a clear pattern of that. Reporter lauer is the latest in an expanding list of powerful men forced out of their jobs overcharges of Sexual Misconduct, including now former cbs this morning coanchor charlie rose. New to the left def jam founder russell simmons, who earlier today resigned from his Media Companies after a second woman alleged that he forced her to have sex against her will. Simmons doesnt deny the encounters, but says he remembers them differently. As for lauer, nbc said in a statement that current management was never made aware of any allegations prior to monday night when the first woman came forward. Anthony . Bianna golodryga, thanks. Pressure is growing on the longest serving member of the house of representatives to step down in the face of Sexual Misconduct accusations. More on that now from julianna goldman. Congressman conyers should resign. Reporter today the top democrat in the house of representatives called on john conyers to step down immediately. Zero tolerance needs consequences for everyone. No matter how great the legacy, its no license to harass or discriminate. Reporter conyers attorney arnold reed shot back, saying the 88yearold congressman is staying put. Nancy pelosi did not elect the congressman, and she sure as hell wont be the one to tell the congressman to leave. Reporter pelosi and other Democratic Leaders spoke out after marion brown, the staffer with whom conyers settled the Sexual Harassment complaint in 2015 came forward for the first time. Im here to say that im not a liar. Reporter offering disturbing details. He pointed to areas of genital areas of his body and asked me to, you know, touch it. Reporter since browns 27,000 settlement was first reported last week, several women have accused conyers of Sexual Misconduct. Conyers has denied the allegations. His attorney said he was hospitalized last night for stressrelated issues and also seemed to suggest that conyers is being treated unfairly due to his race. Nancy pelosi is going to have to explain what is the discernible difference between al franken and john conyers. I apologize. Reporter several women have accused senator al franken of groping both before and after he was elected. Unlike with conyers, Top Democrats in the senate are not calling on franken to resign. Simply today, republican congressman joe barton announced he would not seek reelection after a lewd selfie he had sent to another woman circulated online. Anthony . Julianna goldman. Thank you, julianna. White House Press SecretarySarah Huckabee sanders said today it is unlikely the president knew who Jayda Fransen was when he retweeted her videos yesterday. Fransen is the leader of an Extremist Group in britain, and the president s retweets set off a storm across the pond. Here is charlie dagata. Reporter the far right antimuslim Group Britain first is used to street fighting to drive home its extremist message. But now a day after President Trump retweeted the groups inflammatory videos, the fight has spread to parliament. He is either a racist, incompetent, or unthinking, or all three. Reporter opposition politicians piled on the pressure to cancel the official state visit that has been extended to the president. Action is needed now, not a slap on the wrist. Cancel the state visit. He should be treated as anyone else who breaks the law and charged with inciting racial hatred. Reporter even members of the conservative government agreed. So the president has endorsed the views of a vile, hatefilled racist organization that hates me and people like me. In jordan on government business, Prime Minister theresa may clung to the idea of a special relationship with washington, but she too condemned the president. When we think United States had got it wrong, reetweeting from britain first was the wrong thing to do. Reporter mr. Trump only fanned the flames when he rebuked the Prime Minister, warning her to focus on her own business. Even staunch trump supporter nigel farage admitted the president had made a mistake. I do think these videos are in very bad taste, and he has shown poor judgment. Reporter tonight we learn the u. S. Diplomatic post in some muslim countries have been put on a heightened security alert as a precaution. A u. S. Official told us the president s retweets of the antimuslim videos have added to those concerns. Anthony . Charlie dagata in london, thanks. The cbs overnight news will be right back.

Her brothers have already started giving her driving lessons in the desert, she told us. Women fought for the right to drive in saudi arabia, illegally taking to the road and shaming their government with these protest videos. In this ultra conservative country, the genders have traditionally been segregated. So the driving ban has never made much sense, because women are allowed to catch taxis or use ride apps to get a car with a male driver theyve never met. Most people weve spoken to here want to see women behind the wheel. And women are fighting for other freedoms too. Theyre not victims. We are not victims. Were strong. Reporter halah alhamrani, who has opened a boxing jim gymnasium called fight like a girl told us she wants an end to saudi arabias male guardianship system, which means all saudi women still need a male relatives permission to travel overseas or get married. You think that needs to change . I hope that it does, yes. Reporter and you think the government is going to do it . I think were going in that yeah, were going in that direction inshallah, god willing. Reporter by saudi standards, the countrys new crown prince, mohammad bin salman, is a reformer. He is allowing women into sport stadiums for the first time. And a stampede of saudi women is now joining the workforce. These girls could one day have very different lives from their mothers.

The white house has been making plans to remove the former exxon chief and replace him with the current cia director, mike pompeo. Now tillerson has had a strained relationship with President Trump, and it did not get any better when he was quoted as calling the president a moron. Here is margaret brennan. He is here. Rex is here. Reporter today President Trump refused to answer questions about a white house plan to replace secretary of state Rex Tillerson after less than year on the job. Mr. Trump has been publicly frustrated with his top diplomat. We disagree on a couple of things. Sometimes id like him to be a little bit tougher. Reporter that comment came just three days after tillerson held an extraordinary News Conference last month to shoot down reports that he had called the president a moron. There has never been a consideration in my mind to leave. I serve at the appointment of the president , and i am here for as long as the president feels i can be useful to achieving his objectives. Reporter the two have clashed on policy issues, including north korea. Shortly after tillerson announced that the u. S. Was in diplomatic contact with pyongyang, trump tweeted that, quote, he is wasting his time. No, we dont agree on everything. Yes, sometimes he changes his mind. Reporter tillerson successfully convinced the president to keep the u. S. In the iran nuclear deal. But he now appears poised to lose an argument. Over tillersons objection, the president is leaning towards recognizing the disputed city of jerusalem as the capital of israel. One of tillersons closest ally, chairman of the Senate ForeignRelations Committee bob corker said mr. Trump has effectively neutered tillerson. He said the president has, quote, castrate youd before the world stage. I object. Im fully intact. Reporter tillersons aloof management style and cost saving plan to restructure the state department, including slashing around 2,000 positions has not helped his popularity. Today corker defended him. Its been evident to me that for some time, somebody is seeking to undermine his presence here. I dont know who that is. President trump is poised for the first major legislative victory of his administration. He calls it the biggest tax cut in american history. Here is nancy cordes. Reporter the dow surged 330 points today as wall street sensed an impending windfall after several gop holdouts said they were leaning towards voting yes. I think its likely to pass. Reporter the centerpiece of the senate plan is a huge cut to the Corporate Tax rate, which republicans say will be a boon for u. S. Workers. Well have more jobs, more companies, existing companies are expanding. Reporter democrats argued past tax cuts havent trickled down to workers. This is a fantasy. This bill greases the wheels to send more jobs overseas. Just a show of hands. Reporter a group of Business Leaders were asked recently if they would invest the tax savings in their workforce. White house economic adviser gary cohn was disappointed by the response. Why arent the other hands up . Reporter delaware democrat chris coons. Advisers ceos of pfizer, cocacola said thats not what were going to do. If we get a significant rate cut, were going to give it back to our shareholders and in dividends and buybacks. Reporter the joint committee on taxation projected today that the gop plan would boost job growth by an extra half a percent over the next ten years. The jct has also projected that the plans individual tax changes would initially benefit earners at all levels. But those savings would quickly evaporate for those making less than 75,000 a year. Tennessee republican bob corker says that part of the plan needs major work. I wish we could just take the individual side, put mitt the trash can and take it quickly to the incinerator. Reporter but many republicans are worried theyll miss the moment if they tinker with the bill any longer. I want us to pass tax reform. I think in its current structure, it would make things better than things are today. Not perfect, but better. Reporter if republicans do manage to pass their bill, which theyre hoping to do in the next 24 hours, they will have another opportunity to make some changes when they work to reconcile their plan with the very different plan that passed the house earlier this month. Matt lauer is now speaking about that Sexual Harassment scandal that cost him his job on the today show. Bianna golodryga has the latest. Our top story is once again about our former colleague matt lauer. Reporter the today show may be without its star anchor, but matt lauer still managed to lead his old broadcast, releasing a statement jus before air about the allegations that led to a stunning exit. There are no words to express my sorrow and regret for the pain i have caused others by my words and actions, he said. As i am writing this, i realize the depth of the damage and disappointment i have left behind at home and at nbc. Lauer seen near his home in the hamptons today said some of the allegations are untrue or mischaracterized, but there is enough truth in these stories to make me feel embarrassed and ashamed.
