7:01 am
>> cell phone video shows thick black smoke. >> a plane explodes and flames after crash landing in dubai. >> authorities confirm everybody was evacuated. >> i think he is the worst president, maybe in the history of our country. i think he has been a disaster. >> republican nominee is unfight to serve as president. and he keeps on proving it. >> a man came up to me and he handed me his purple heart. >> i always wanted to get the purple heart. this was much easier. >> donald trump, you should have pinned that back to that veteran's chest and i'm sorry, i'm shouting. i'm just so upset. >> president obama administrationsecretly sent $400 million to iran. >> flash flooding in phoenix. >> tropical storm earl.

7:03 am
get out of here you crying baby. welcome to "cbs this morning." as you wake up in the west we have new details on the breaking news about a passenger plane that crash landed in dubai. thick, black smoke billowed from the emirates jet this morning, as it came to a stop on the runway. all 300 passengers and crew are safe. >> the boeing 777 fell into the dubai airport, elizabeth palmer is tracking the developments. good morning. >> good morning. we still don't know what caused this dramatic crash landing at one of the world's busiest airports. it is on video taken of the plane once it was on the ground by people in and around the terminal here emirates 521 is
7:04 am
already on fire after a hard landing. >> oh, my god. >> in another view there is a big explosion in the fuselage and shortly afterwards, you can see the aircraft is still smoking, flipped over and the emergency chutes are deployed. all passengers and 18 crew were safely evacuated. airline crews are trained to evacuate this kind of plane in a minute and a half. we've been talking to an expert here in london and he says there does appear to have been strong winds and dust in the air when the plane was coming down which could have affected visibility of course or even caused win sheer. it does look as if the landing was hard enough to have broken the landing gear which would have taken some considerable force. but still, no word on what exactly went wrong and when it might have happened. >> good to know after looking at those pictures everyone
7:05 am
survived. thank you, elizabeth. more video shows flames after it crashed. accidenting involving accidents with this jet are rare and kris van cleave looks at this. >> we expect the national transportation safety board will be involved, because the plane is a u.s. made boeing 777. the first things investigators are going to look for, the plane's black box, similar to this one. they're kept in the tail. the voice and data recorders should give investigators a clear sense of what the pilots were saying as well as how the aircraft was functioning as it landed. the boeing 777 has been flying for 20 years. it has an excellent safety record. only three others so-called loss of air frame accidents, including one surface appears similar. july 6, 2013, asiana struck the sea wall in san francisco, ripping the tail off and sparking a fire on board. three people died there.
7:06 am
now, emirates is a 30-year-old airline that has rapidly expanded its footprint. our initial review of their safety record reveals only two other serious incidents, both occurred on takeoff without injuries. nearly 300 people were on this flight and initial reports have all passengers getting off safely. to vertfycertify an aircraft it has to be evacuated in 90 seconds or less even if the exits are blocked. donald trump is hitting back at top republicans who have criticized his remarks about a gold star family. trump declined yesterday to endorse house speaker paul ryan or senator john mccain in their primary races. his refusal came after both men reacted harshly to his feud with the family of a fallen soldier. >> trump tweeted this morning, quote, there is great unity from my campaign. perhaps greater than ever before. major garrett is in washington,
7:07 am
where trump failed to get it on track. >> reporter: good morning. it appears at this moment aimless. those with direct knowledge tell us trump is increasingly estranged from his advisors turmoil among senior staff continues, and fundraising for the d.c. transition launching this week is way behind schedule. all of this, of course makes republicans weary, and president obama eager to question trump's fitness for office. >> i don't regret anything but i was hit very hard from the stage of the democrats, and i think i'm entitled to respond. >> donald trump refused to apologize to the parents of humayun kahn and instead lashed out against those in his own party. >> i've never been a big fan of john mccain. i hate the way our veterans have been treated by john and other people. >> trump declined to support the reelection bids of three republicans who have been critical of his fight with the kahn family. arizona senator and navy
7:08 am
veteran, john mccain, house speaker paul ryan and new hampshire kelly aot. >> hello, arizona. >> vp nominee mike pence met with mccain, and publicly insisted republicans are not divided. >> now we are united. we are coming together and making donald trump the 45th president of the united states and we will make america great again. >> this isn't a situation where you have an episodic gaff. >> at the white house, president obama jumped into the fray. >> there has to be a point in which you say this is not somebody i can support for president of the united states. >> mr. donald j. trump. >> campaigning in virginia earlier in the day, trump tried to deflect the kahn controversy. >> a man came up to me and he handed me his purple heart. >> calling on stage, retired army officer, lewis dorfman.
7:09 am
>> i always wanted to get the purple heart. this was much easier. >> accustomed to protesters, trump faced a different kind of distraction. >> don't worry about that baby. i love babies. i hear that baby crying i like it. >> but quickly, changed his tune. >> actually i was only kidding. you can get the baby out of here. i think she believed me i loved having a baby crying while i'm speaking. >> at a fund-raiser in colorado last week, we were told trump declared he had no interest in becoming more presidential. meg whitman urged republicans to reject trump. whitman announced she would help elect hillary clinton, in a statement, she wrote, donald trump's demagoguery has undermined the fabric of our character. gayle. >> thank you major. donald trump faces new questions about his views on workplace sexual harassment today. he told the "washington post" that a woman facing harassment must take responsibility for how to respond.
7:10 am
now, earlier this week he told usa today that if his daughter faced harassment i would like to think she would find another career or company if that was the case. juliana goldman looks at his changing message in this controversy. good morning. >> good morning. sunday, donald trump seemed to question the women who accused former fox news chief, roger ailes of sexual harassment but the adjustment comes after his son, eric trump made comments yesterday here on "cbs this morning" that sparked a firestorm of criticism. >> she wouldn't allow herself to be objected to it. by the way, you should take it up with human resources, and she definitely would as a strong person. at the same time i don't think she would allow herself to be subjected to that. i think that's a point he was making. he did so well. >> on twitter, the backlash to eric trump's comments came quickly, especially from the women at the ailes.
7:11 am
>> still in 2016, we're still victim blaming. >> megan kelly tweeted, sigh. donald trump tried to clarify his stance saying i think it depending on the individual. it also depends on what is available. if there is not a better alternative, then you stay. adding, but some people don't like staying in an atmosphere that was so hostile. >> thanks for sitting down with us. >> ivanka paired on fox news last night, defending her family and trying to calm the firestorm. >> sexual harassment is inexcusable in any setting. i think harassment in general regardless, sexual or otherwise, is totally inexcusable. if it transpires it needs to be reported. it needs to be dealt with on a company level. >> donald trump's unfavorability among female voters is higher than any nominee since they began polling. >> frank luntz is a republican strategist and cbs news contributor, he said trump's children will need to be active
7:12 am
in the lead up to the election. >> the trump kids have more credibility than their father. they're going to need to be more public than most children are. because they're going to have to balance off the stuff that their father says. >> eric trump defended his comments on twitter, writing, quote, i said sexual harassment is a no go. should be addressed by human resources. it is totally unacceptable behavior. charlie. >> thanks, juliana. face the nation moderator john dickerson is joining us. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> is the republican party going to turn in a big way? are we reaching the point where this building pressure causes them to come together and say we can't go as the president said any more. >> the problem is anybody who has endorsed donald trump has to worry about doing anything that helps hillary clinton get elected. this is what has kept mitt romney than going farther than he has.
7:13 am
all the criticism, you're hurting the party. if you stick with donald trump for too long then if you do finally break, people will say wait, you didn't break for reasons one through 19, now you're -- and then on the other hand, you also get the people who are supporting trump who support him intensely, then raging against that. so the people who are in this unfortunate position can't move. >> so what is likely to happen nothing? >> well, at the moment yes. a lot of hand ringing, phone calls going around saying how do we fix this how do we stop it. attempts to divert. attempts to break away from him and run, you know if you're senate candidate in a vulnerable race you're trying to break away from donald trump, but then ultimately hoping somehow things get better without being able to do much to change it. >> there seems to be different levels of response to donald trump, even within his own party. >> right. we should probably come up it's like rings on a tree. you have the first group of people who are republicans who always not like donald trump. so if john mccain and lindsey
7:14 am
graham speak out, that's not surprising. then you have the ring of people which are paul ryan and mitch mcconnell, who have said things remember, mitch mcconnell said he is not a credible candidate. he and marco rubio said there a period of time where donald trump needs to show he is a credible candidate. we're in that period now. that group of republicans are support trump, but have these comments they make every once in a while. then you have chris christie talking about how he didn't approve of trump's comments about the kahn family. that's another circle. chris christie is a trump supporter, a vocal one. that's what makes this different, where the sort of usual suspects speak out. >> there is a lot of reporting that the campaign is in chaos, and many party leaders trying to get trump to focus on substance instead of personality. here is a story in the papers today. aetna backs off obama care. they're following united health all pulling back from obama care, because of losses. the system is not working. the dnc has just fired top three
7:15 am
leadership people. they're in chaos, and there seems to be no discussion from that on the republican side because trump is talking about these other things. >> it is an important point. it is not just the chaos that is hurting the campaign but the opportunities that are being missed. the clock is ticking. they're right there. remember the gdp numbers came out on friday. weak economy, it is not being exploited exploit. >> he is not inclined to go there. >> or he is just very inclined to go where he wants to go. so that's -- other things get blocked out by that. >> john dickerson, thank you so much. as i just mentioned, there is a new shake up in the democratic party over the embarrassing email hack. the ceo of the national committee stepped down yesterday. the chief financial officer and communications director are also out and the departures are the latest fallout from hacked e-mails that show party insiders favored hillary clinton over bernie sanders during the primary season. new questions this morning about the obama administration's dealings with iran after a
7:16 am
reported $400 million cash payment to tehran. the "wall street journal" reported it last night, and it happened in january, around the same time that four americans detained in iran were released. margaret brennan is at the white house with why one lawmaker calls this ransom. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. well, the obama administration has long said a nearly $2 billion settlement with iran was unrelated to the prisoner release, even though they happened at the same time and also coincided with the implementation of that landmark deal to freeze iran's nuclear program. when iran released four american prisoners in january, including journalists journalists, it was heralded as a diplomatic break through. a coalition of congressmen met three of the americans in germany at the medical center. >> we paid a price in a major way to bring them home. >> reporter: the administration strongly denied paying any ransom.
7:17 am
but according to new details, first reported by the "wall street journal," $400 million in cash was flown into tehran on a cargo plane, around the same time that the americans were handed over. it was loaded with euros, swiss franks and other currencies since any dollars is illegal under u.s. law. senior u.s. officials claim the timing was coincidental and just the first payment of a separate $1.7 billion settlement. at the time, president obama did not provide details. but did say the money was meant to settle an outstanding legal dispute from before the 1979 islamic revolution. >> with the nuclear deal done prisoners released the time was right to resolve the dispute as well. >> reporter: but the administration never consulted congress according to a republican congressman, ed royce, who accused them of paying ransom to a state sponsor of terrorism. as details became public
7:18 am
tuesday, there were instant reverb rations on the campaign trail. republican vice-presidential nominee, mike pence. >> the administration airlifted $400 million in cash to iran. you know we cannot have four more years accommodating and apologizing to our enemies or abandoning our friends. >> reporter: now, the brother of prisoner jason, released this statement, saying he is thankful for his brother's release, but the publication of these additional details, there can now be no doubt that iran's treatment of jason and the other americans was a cruel, abuse of innocent americans. let us not forget that iran currently unjustly im prisons at least four u.s. british and canadian nationals. >> margaret thank you. the number of zika infections is growing. state health officials say a 15th person has been infected. the newest infection was found

8:01 am
>> the apparent position on trump's position on sexual harassment comes after eric trump made comments yesterday on "cbs this morning" that sparked a firestorm of criticism. >> are we reaching that point where the building of pressure causes him to come together and say we can't go any more. >> the problem who has endorsed donald trump has worry about doing anything to help get hillary clinton elected. >> they say the settlement with iran was unrelated to the prisoner release even though they happened at the same time. >> hosting the olympics is typically a pretty great advertisement for the host city, but 63% of brazilians think hosting the games here is actually doing more harm than good. donald trump tweeted a picture of himself on his plane last night, eating kentucky fried chicken, despite the fact that the bucket was clearly endorsing bernie sanders! i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell.

8:03 am
trump told "the washington post" quote, i like paul. these are horrible times for our country. we need very strong leadership. i'm just not quite there yet. ryan used almost actually the same words in may about getting behind trump. he said, quote, i'm just not ready to do that at this point. i'm not there right now. >> ryan and mccain have said they back trump but in recent days, both have criticized trump's feud with the family of a fallen soldier. trump declined again last night declined to apologize to the khans for attacking them. he says he has the right to respond to their harsh words about him. >> new york's richard hanna is the first republican congressman across party lines to say he will vote for donald trump's opponent hillary clinton. hanna, who plans to retire at the end of his term wrote in an op-ed yesterday, quote, for me, it is not enough to simply denounce his comments. he is unfit to serve our party and cannot lead this country. president obama voiced similar sentiments during a news
8:04 am
conference with singapore's prime minister yesterday. the president expressed his opinion that trump is unfit for the office and it goes beyond policy differences. >> there have been republican presidents with whom i disagreed with, but i didn't have a doubt that they could function as president. i think i was right in mitt romney and john mccain were wrong on certain policy issues but i never thought that they couldn't do the job. but that's not the situation here. and that is not just my opinion. that is the opinion of many prominent republicans. there has to come a point at which you say, enough. >> well, donald trump said the president does not know what he is doing. new york city police commissioner bill bratton is one of the best-known names in law enforcement. if not the best. after more than 45 years of police work, he announced his resignation yesterday. bratton will step down next month as head of the nation's largest police force to join a consulting firm. we are pleased to welcome commissioner bratton back to studio 57. >> great to be here.
8:05 am
>> i want to talk about your record but, first, you've been the top cop in boston and los angeles and twice here in new york city. you know a lot about leadership. do you agree with the president that trump is unfit? >> mr. trump scares me. scares the hell out of me, to be quite frank with you and personal opinion. i just don't get it in terms of the support for him. as a veteran, a vietnam veteran, i'm amazed that veteran groups are so charmed by him. the hot metal incident was appalling. >> why? >> the demeaning, in some respects of that most significant award to be wounded in combat while protecting your country and i've always wanted one of these. amazing. no recognition of the significance of that medal or the meaning of it. no sensitivity there.
8:06 am
>> that is one thing. why does he scare you as a possible president? >> the lack of depth on issues that the "shoot from the hip". i just watched this whole campaign and i just shake my head. again, a personal opinion. i've been in public life and public policy, law enforcement for 45 years, 48 if you include my three years in the army. and i just don't get it. >> not then to be president says bill bratton? >> that is my belief. that is my belief. >> do you know him, commissioner? >> i've known mr. trump for 20 odd years. not close. but the apartment interactive with him at different times and i know many people who are strongly supportive of them, although they have questions. but, again, it's troubling. >> it's a habit when people back. so -- >> a tough guy. but i don't know if he's taken a
8:07 am
actual punch in his life. i'm always amazed by people who are betrayed as tough guys or portrayed themselves as being tough. it is easy to be tough. it really is easy to be tough. it's a lot tougher being soft and understanding when you need to do soft. like the apology to the family. what about taking something bad about you if they had that? isn't that the issue? there is no compassion there. it's all about him and never about anybody else. strange times. >> may i turn to you? >> i'd rather talk about me. >> this is a big moment. >> all of the reasons that norah cited at the beginning in terms of your experience and what you brought to policing, it somehow seems there must be some other reason you're leaving this job. because you love it. you have said you love police work. and you're leaving to go work for a consulting firm and you say it's a career opportunity.
8:08 am
you have a responsibility to yourself, but also you have earned the respect of people who feel like they need you here in challenging times. how did you make this decision and what is behind it? >> it's the right time for me personally. i'm 68 years of age and it's the right time for me professionally. the nypd is in excellent shape and is moving very forcefully to address all of the issues of the day, issues of race, issues of terrorism, issues of crime and dealing with all of them successfully, although it will take years on the issue of race. it's not a new york issue, it's a national issue. and so for me, i'm able to leave the department in very good shape, as referenced in all of the newspaper coverage today. clearly the right time when you go out with that type of coverage. but also the comfort level of what i'm leaving behind is an extraordinary leader, jimmy
8:09 am
o'neill, my successor. i've worked with him the last two and a half years and known him for 25 years. similar to los angeles when i left at los angeles, i was very comfortable with the line of succession was secure. and an individual who believes like i do that policing needs to change and he is the right guy to continue that change. >> you came in with john miller. john miller leaving with you? >> i think you guys have to get a big net and try to pull him back in here. the same argument, charlie, that john, i think, after much criticism from the media when he took the job of counterterrorism chief two and a half years ago has proven himself to be one of the most extraordinary individuals in that area and has held his strength in the defenses of new york city and by doing that, the strength in the national defense. he does an extraordinary well job. john, in terms of making a decision when to come back to the media, hopefully, to you guys is a personal decision for him also. but that would be a loss to the city of new york in terms of his stepping away from that
8:10 am
position, as well as to the country. he is widely respected by everybody on the national and international scene relative to terrorism. >> commissioner bratton, hopefully this won't be the last time we see you at the table. >> hopefully, not. i'm the opening act for your next guest. >> you know our next guest and you might have seen her this morning. >> looked pretty good when i saw her this morning before she left the house. >> she is actually married to the commissioner. we have seen rikki klieman in all of her natural beauty. there she is. rikki klieman is here along with jodi kantor of "the new york times." they will take a look at eric trump's controversial comments here on

she wouldn't allow her self to be objected, by the way you should certainly take it up with human resources and she definitely would as a strong person. at the same time i don't think she would allow herself to be subjected to that. >> this is what eric trump told us yesterday defending donald trump's controversial comments about workplace sexual harassment. the republican nominee respond this week to a question about his daughter ivanka would react to sexual assault harassments. i would like think she would find another career or fine another company if that was the case. the commentsing sparked a national debate. jodi cantor is here along with rikki klieman, aka mrs. bratton. jodi start us off with your initial reaction from both trump men and what you think it says about the broader perception of sexual harassment at the workplace. >> i've interviewed many women in different industries over the wears who said they have been sexually harassed in the
8:17 am
workplace. i never interviewed one who said she was able to brush it off easily. the pattern is generally lower level women say that they are afraid to speak out because they don't have enough power in the organization and higher level women feel that they have a great deal to lose by speaking out. the episode we're seeing playing out with roger ailes departure from fox news is in many ways exceptional. this is not usually what happens. usually people stay silent. usually if there's a threat of lawsuit it's settled out of the public domain. >> have you ever heard a woman saying i won't allow this happen to me. i think that's what threw a lot of people. ivanka wouldn't allow that to happen to her. >> these things are complicated. it's possible to both push back and still feel wounded by it. >> rikki that phrase a strong woman wouldn't allow herself to be sexually harassed. >> let's look at gretchen carlson. she sudden roger ailes is one
8:18 am
mighty strong woman. let's look at megyn kelly who in the investigation said that she was also subjected to inappropriate comments which constitute sexual harassments. sexual harassment and we know under the law affects every person not only women as jodi has written so he low queenly about but can also be sexual harassment of woman on woman, man on woman, woman on man. that sexual harassment knows no boundaries but the usual victims are women, strong or weak. >> i guess the question what donald trump said in this interview ivanka would find another career or find another company the suggestion it's the woman's responsibility on her own to remove herself from a situation where she's being sexually harassed. is that the right way to look at it. >> it's the wrong way to look at it completely. although ivanka trump or other women fortunate enough to be in a financially secure situation
8:19 am
may be able to go find another job. but most of the world cannot. >> what advice do you have for a woman who is sexually harassed. >> the sexual harassment advice that any good lawyer would give are the following. first of all, if you feel safe you should confront your harasser. you should say what you are saying to me what you are doing, i don't like. and i don't want you to do it again, putting the harasser on notice with many times you can feel safe and can't do that. you should go on make a personal record keep a journal. you should absolutely go to human resources or a superior. you should look at what your company's policy is complain promptly if you wind up at the eeoc going to go to equal opportunity employment group that what you must do is you got to get there within 180 days and you must must, must be specific. you can't say he's making me feel awkward. you got to know exactly what he did and when he did it. >> one of the most amazing things coming out of the fox
8:20 am
news story the correspond reported the sexual harassment and was retaliated against for reporting to it human seniors and up the chain of command. >> that's fear. i've never seen a sexual harassment lawsuit play out the way the ails one has. you would agree this is the most consequently sexual harassment suit we've seen in american history because it's had so many ripple effects and hasn't even hit the courtroom yet. it the courtroom yet and yet more and more women are coming forward. >> is that two parts? one, because there were repeated snants instances but more importantly it was hanelededdled by an independent law firm which meant people feel more comfortable to come and talk to them? >> it asks the question what is going on in the american workplace. how could this have per sissed so long for fox and where else is it happening?

millions of viewers left six members of the group dead. but patty remained on the run. until september 1975 when authorities finally caught up with her in san francisco. >> i said don't move. and then placed her under arrest. >> reporter: a sensational trial followed. patty's lawyers argued she was brainwashed and jurors listened to hundreds of hours of testimony as they grappled with one central question -- was she or wasn't she? patty hearst or tonya? >> that is one of the questions of jeffrey toobin. author of "american heiress." >> how do you answer the question? >> the answer to the question she joined the sla. when you look at the lengths of time she was on the run and you look at the number of crimes
8:36 am
that she committed and the multiple, multiple opportunities that she had to leave. you know, we talk about one bank robbery, the famous bank robbery with the photo of the machine grandpa. she helped rob two other banks, including one where a woman was killed. she shot up personally a street in los angeles. she helped set off bombs in northern california. so the answer to the question is yes. >> was she brainwashed or was this a swedish syndrome or what was it? >> you know, i try to avoid these terms like brake braininwashing and stockholm syndrome. she reacted to her circumstances. she was a vulnerable restless 19-year-old when she was kidnap and very unformed like a lot of 19-year-olds. the sla was actually good to her for the most part and she saw the world through their eyes and saw, as that piece
8:37 am
demonstrated that six of her comrades were killed. she didn't want that fate so she went on the run. but once she was arrested she thought, i don't want that life any more. i want to go back to my old life and she made the rational decision to say, hey i want to be a hearst again. >> you said in the end she became her mother. in the end when it was all over she became her mother. during this whole time she was very critical of her mother. at one time you write in the book she said to more mom, "stop wearing black." she became very disparaging to her own parents while she was being held captive. >> sort of the remarkable thing if you follow patty hearst's life since 1975 when she was arrested she has actually led the life for which she was des destined destined. she became a socialite and some eccentric interest and been in a couple of john waters movies. basically, she did turn into her
8:38 am
mother notwithstanding the criticism of her mother. >> the sla was a rag tag team. they had no plan and did this willy-nilly and got patty hearst after looking at her engagement photo. >> symbionese is a made-up word. they didn't liberate anything or anyone. they called themselves an army. there were at most a dozen people involved. so it was an incredibly disorganized dysfunctional group of people that improvised their way along. interestingly, most of them or several of them came out of the indiana university drama program and they excelled at guerrilla theater. they liked to put on shows but they really had no judgment of what to do once they had it. >> so they captured the world's attention. >> she served less than two years in prison and president carter commuted her sentence. what does this say about wealth?
8:39 am
>> this was the remarkable part of the story. she was sentenced to seven years for the bank robbery. after a bipartisan effort by ronald reagan who was governor of california and close friend of the hearst family and congressman, wealthy people they said to jimmy carter please commute her sentence and he did after 22 months. 20 years later, bill clinton, on the last day of his presidency pardoned her. she is the only person in american history to receive a commutation from one president and a pardon from another. that to me when you look at the scope of her crimes the three bank robberies, the shootings, the bombings that she got that sort of gifts from two presidents tells you a lot about -- >> because of her last name? >> she didn't talk to you? >> she didn't talk to me and has moved on in her life. she is now big in the dog show business. there is a photograph in there of rocket her shih tzu, that
8:40 am
won at the westminster kennel club. >> thank you for that point! >> how much is she worth, about? >> you know, it's -- the hearst corporation did one thing that was really brilliant. in the very early days she bought 20% of espn so she is really rich. >> "american heiress" is on sale now. coming up next is leona lewis. we will learn how she got a feel for becoming a sea lion.
