7:08 am
potentially damaging information on hillary clinton. president trump insisted he only learned of it a few days ago but did not fault his son. "i think many people would have held that meeting," the president said.

7:09 am
the white house says the president has spoke within his son in recent days. an attorney for the president reports he's trying to build a wall between himself and anyone who could po techblly be in legal jeopardy for their knowledge of and their participation in that meeting such as son-in-law jared kushner. jeff? >> margaret, thank you very much. mark phillips is in paris where the president could say more about russia today. mark, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you. this is the prefecturest of meetings. the president is officially here because tomorrow is the french holiday, bastille day, including this time american troops commemorating the entry of the u.s. into world war i 100 years ago. but if this was billed or thought to be any kind of respite from domestic politics at home, it may not turn out to be because the president is also having a meeting with the french president, emanuel macron.
7:10 am
following that, they will hold a brief, the briefest of news conferences. each president is going to take two questions we're told from the press here so that if president trump thought that this was in any way a diversion from domestic concerns, well, it may not turn out to be. jeff? >> narc phillips in paris, thank you. when the two presidents speak after this morning's meeting we'll bring you a cbs news special report around 9:15 pacific time. in other news, president trump's pick to become the director of the fbi said he would quit if the president ever attempted to impede an investigation. wray made the comments yesterday during his senate confirmation hearing. former fbi director james comey said he was fired after refusing to pledge his loyalty to president trump. wray told senators he would also refuse. >> no one asked me for any kind of loyalty oath at any point during this process, and i sure as heck didn't offer one.
7:11 am
>> if the president asked you to do something unlawful or unethical, what would you say? >> first i would try to talk him out of it, and if that failed, i would resign. >> wray contradicted the president when he said the russia investigation is not a witch-hunt. he is likely headed for the confirmation. senate republicans say they'll put out a revised health care bill this morning. they want to pass something before next month's recess. president trump yesterday warned senators not to let their supporters down. >> i will be very angry about it, and a lot of people will be very upset. but i'm sitting, waiting for that bill to come to my desk. i hope that they do it. they've been promising it for years. >> nancy cordes is on capitol hill with the changes. nancy, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. gop senators are going to get a chance to see the text, including those new changes today. but, norah, the holdouts we've spoken to say from what they've heard so far, they're not swayed. cbs news has learned that the
7:12 am
new draft adds in billions of dollars to the opioid fund and also adds more money to a stabilization fund to help low-income americans afford insurance on the individual market. and it funds all of those changes by leaving some of obama's taxes on the wealthy in place, like a tax on investment income and a tax on salaries and bonuses for health care ceos. though taxes are a big turn auch for conservatives who already opposed version one of the bill and there's no indication that this new draft addresses the biggest concern for moderate republicans, which was the deep medicaid cuts in the first bill that they say will hurt millions of their own vulnerable constituents. there were ten republican senators at the very least who oppose the original draft of the gop's health care bill. so far we've seen no sign of a shift and, jeff, leaders need eight of them to come around if they want to pass a repeal of
7:13 am
obamacare. >> nancy cordes, thank you very much. police in austin, texas, have removed dozens of department suvs in service over carbon monoxide concerns. six officers since friday have shown signs of carbon monoxide poisoning. they were all driving ford explor explorers. we reported in early february hundreds of drivers claimed the popular suv was making them sick. since our report the number of complaints has nearly doubled. a dash cam shows a california police officer who passed out behind a wheel, crashing into a tree. kris van cleaveis at the austin police department with the potential danger to officers. kris, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the ford explorer makes up 61% of a tustin police department's fleet of police cruisers. that's more than 300 vehicles. and now the department is debating if it needs to park them all. >> i'm lucky to be alive, i believe that. and i'm lucky i didn't kill a family or somebody else that night.
7:14 am
>> reporter: sergeant zachary lahood was the first officer to report being sickened by apparent carbon monoxide exposure in his cruiser. >> do you smell the exhaust? >> i don't know if i hit a curb or my head hit the window but i remember swerving to miss a head on collision. that's when i realized, man, i need to get help. something is wrong. >> reporter: lahood is now on medical leave and is suing ford. >> reporter: austin police installed these carbon monoxide detectors in their explorers after the incident, which have gone off 37 times. the suvs have been pulled out of service and in just the last week six officers have been treated for carbon monoxide exposure. assistant chief troy gay. >> if the end result is we end up parking several hundred utility vehicles and that is ultimately the decision if we continue to have occurrences, then we will do that. >> reporter: since our february report, the number of complaints
7:15 am
involving 2011 to 2017 model year ford explorer, not just police units, nearly doubled to 771. federal regulators are veging if the issue in austin is related to a potential safety defect. ford has known about the situation since at least 2012. a company representative later acknowledged in a deposition it appears to be a design issue that may allow exhaust which contains carbon monoxide to seep in likely through unsealed seams in the rear of the suv. >> ford needs to step up to the plate, take responsibility, and get these cars off the road. they need to issue a recall. there is no denying the fact that these cars are going to kill people. >> reporter: in a statement, ford says its investigation found no signs of a carbon monoxide issue with the design of these police interceptor explorers. they say some companies make modifications after the fact. ford is working with the
7:16 am
department on some fixes for that. but the austin police department say they've had problems with cars they've made modifications and some straight from the dealer. >> thank you so much. united airlines is reportedly rolling out a new plan to deal with overbooked flights. they'll sell seats already booked to other fliers willing to pay a higher price, but it would also offer passengers on oversold planes vouchers up to five days in advance to change their tickets. the airline was heavily criticized in april after a passenger was dragged off an overbooked flight. peter greenburg joins us from tampa. good morning. tell us how this would work. >> it's called a flex schedule. passengers will assign up for a news letter where they'll say we're available to take another flight. then the airline gets to manage their inventory of available seats better. most importantly, they get to maximize their revenue for every available seat. it's about peak flights. for example, if there's a 7:00 a.m. flight from new york to
7:17 am
chicago, the airline knows from their computer models that seat is going to be taken, the plane will be full. if it fills up earlier than expected they alert the passenger by e-mail and say would you be flexible in your schedule and we'll give you a voucher of up to $250 to take a later flight the same day. then the business traveler who's paying a higher fare, who wants that seat, will then buy that seat for as much as $800 or $900. the plane still goes out full. a passenger gets a voucher, not hard dollars. the airline makes a whole lot more money. >> the person who buys the flex seat is taking a risk saying i realize there's a chance i might lose this seat. >> they won't take a risk because they don't have to accept the offer. the point is they will get that offer up to five days ahead of time, which allows the airline to resell that seat at a much higher fare. >> peter, is this to prevent some of the headaches we've seen last minute at the airports? follow up, are we going to see other airlines follow suit? >> it's going ease pain because
7:18 am
you're going to find out about the situation at home online, you'll get that voucher online and at the airport there's less likelihood that flight will be overbooked. the only people who will be unhappy about this are the passengers who like to game the system who are hoping the flight is overbooked so they can get a higher payout at the gate. >> peter greenberg, thank you. an a statement, we are always looking at new ways to innovate and improve customer experience and this extremely small test is an example of one of the many opportunities. meantime parts of the midwest is under heavy rein after heavy rain caused flashflooding. in illinois, half a foot covered land in some places. flood waters rushed into basements and covered cars in barrington northwest chicago. the rising water also covered streets and neighborhoods in indianapolis. some parts of the region are under flood watches until friday. thunderstorms could last through the weekend. meantime along the east coast, millions will face extreme heat today.

♪ good morning. for our viewers in the west, it's thursday, july 13th, 2014. welcome back to "cbs this morning." the challenging relationship between president trump and the new president of france, as mr. trump visits paris. and the co founder of a website trying to shake up the entire grocery industry. why they sell everything for $3 a piece. but first, here's today's eye-opener at 8:00. a major discovery overnight in the mysterious disappearance of four young men that we have been covering all week in pennsylvania. >> family and friends of the missing have been hoping for the best. it now appears they must brace for the worst. if president trump thought this was in any way a diversion
8:01 am
from domestic concerns, it may not turn out to be. in contradiction to his son's own e-mails, president trump said vladimir putin wanted hillary clinton, not him, to win the 2016 election. gop senators are going to get a chance to see the texts, including new changes today. but before, they are not swayed. parts of the midwest under water in morning after heavy rain caused flash flooding. thunderstorms could last through the weekend. millions will face extreme heat. hey, of course, you're following the trump junior scandal. a big story today. the russian investigation. which is also yesterday's big story. and will also be tomorrow's big story. this is just the story for the rest of our lives, guys. this morning's "eye opener" at 8:00, is presented by liberty mutual insurance. i'm norah o'donnell.

charlie and gayle are off. president trump is in france, where he may answer more questions about his son's meeting with the russian lawyer during the campaign. the president meeting this morning with french president emmanuel macron in paris. they say he discussed the g20 summit. >> mr. trump also the guest of honor at a bastille day celebration tomorrow. a sign the two leaders may be getting a little more friendly after their contentious first meeting ahead of the nato summit, including that handshake nearly two months ago. mark phillips is in paris. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. well, when the french president invited the american one to paris, it was to commemorate two anniversaries. but this visit is also about the continuing content of wills between two leaders who are in some ways similar. in others so different. it's a relationship that started with the famous handshake. the grasp wasn't just to show
8:03 am
friendship between two leaders, it was more like an arm wrestling contest. >> prepared the handshake. >> he thought about it. >> he had not only thought about it, but prepared for it. >> reporter: francois theseburg is with the paris think tank. what was he trying to prove? >> one is that he is able to do the job. the other thing that he's trying to do is to demonstrate to the world that france is back. >> reporter: on the face of it, president trump's brief visit here is in connection with the french national holiday and the big parade tomorrow. and it's about commemorating the arrival of u.s. troops in the first world war 100 years ago. an arrival that helped end the stalemate in the frenchs and win the war. but the visit is full of meaning for today. the two presidents are similar in that they both broke the mold of establishment politics, by their approach to the world's problems could not be more different. macron is an internationalist,
8:04 am
believing in free trade, and a collective approach across borders. and not only in combatting climate change. he was the most outspoken critic of donald trump's decision to withdraw from the paris accords and their attempt to limit global warming. >> make our planet great again. >> reporter: inviting the u.s. president to paris was not just a gesture of thanks for america's role in a war 100 years ago. it's being seen here as an attempt despite what trump has said to keep the united states engaged. after their meeting here today, the two presidents will hold a brief press encounter. just two questions allowed to each president, we're told. this may be paris, but jeff, we'll see whether the presidentpresiden president's domestic concerns have followed him here. >> mark phillips, thank you very much. we will have a cbs news special report when the two presidents speak to reporters this morning at around 9:15
8:05 am
pacific. president trump is testified defending his son for meeting a russian lawyer hoping to get damaging information on hillary clinton. donald trump jr. has been widely criticized after he released e-mails showing how an acquaintance set up the meeting last year. he says it produced nothing. president trump told the reuters news agency, quote, i think many people would have held that meeting. and he said he didn't know about it until just a few days ago. "usa today's" washington bureau chief is with us, covering her sixth presidential administration. good morning. >> good morning. >> you heard the president say in that interview with reuters that many people would have taken such a meeting. but with the campaign manager, with the president's family involved? does that ring true to you? >> no. i've tofcovered ten presidentia campaigns. opposition research is part of all of them. there is always an effort to find out the most negative information they can about the other side. but to do so with an agent of a foreign government and a hostile foreign government, i don't know that that's ever happened
8:06 am
before. i'm not aware of that happening before. and for it to involve the most -- the most senior circle of the campaign, that is also really unusual. so this is not the political norm. >> can you talk about the machinations inside the white house right now. there was the category 5 hurricane, one of the expressions used. if the president is trying to potentially wall himself off from some of these conversations, that complicates his work and his agenda. >> that's right. and you know, the one way which is different from a category 5 hurricane is that hurricanes come and go away. this is here to stay for some time. because we not only had this water shed event of the release of donald trump jr.'s e-mails this week, we've had two subsequent stories that raised provocative questions. a "wall street journal" story that says as of 2015 intelligence agencies were hearing about contacts. and a story about the trump
8:07 am
campaign digital operation and russia interests. so this is threads that continue to get pulled and this is a story, a hurricane, that isn't going away. >> and talking about kushner. >> he oversaw that digital operation. and, of course, one reason to particularly watch jared kushner in these stories, he attended that meeting, he is actually a senior white house adviser. he's someone who is working at the white house now. that raises some additional questions. >> so many questions about his security clearance. a member of the senate intelligence committee said yesterday he knew about these e-mails and that the committee knew about these e-mails, from the russians back in april. con house? >> the president said yesterday -- he continued to call it a hoax. i think that's hard to do in the wake of these e-mails. and he hopes the worst is over. i think he's told some associates that. i think there is no sign that the worst is over. and there are certainly more shoes to drop. we assume there are more shoes to drop. because it is a complicated
8:08 am
story with a lot of different trails to follow. and one thing we know from special counsel investigations is that they go where they go. and sometimes they go places you never would have expected them to go. that's certainly an experience that president clinton had when he was in office. >> that's right. the special counsel, bob mueller, now has 16 attorneys on his team helping with the investigation. let's turn now to the agenda that republicans had promised to carry out for the american people. repeal of obamacare, tax reform first, the health care bill. are they any closer to repeal and replace? >> if mitch mcconnell gets to the senate, he deserves a nobel peace prize. there is such a divide between conservatives who say this does not go far enough to repeal the affordable care act, and from more moderate republicans concerned about the deep cuts in medicaid spending. so it is hard to imagine how he gets a bill through the senate. but i think his calculation is, even if they lose, they need to show voters who they have promised for seven years to
8:09 am
repeal and replace obamacare that they tried to do so. then they can move on to other issues. but, you know, health care is not going to go away. because there are big problems. as the republicans have pointed out. with people, particularly who participate in these obamacare exchanges. so congress will have to come back to this. but i think mitch mcconnell calculates they need to get this off their plate if they're going to deal with raising the debt limit, funding the government, cutting taxes, with anything else. >> susan page, always great to have you here. and thank you for completing the primary color. we have them all here at the table. >> we're like a flag. >> yes, we are. and we're excited to announce a new relationship this morning between cbs news and bbc news. our organizations will share video, editorial content and resources. the alliance will strengthen both networks' commitment to original reporting around the world. the bbc reports from 125 cities in 70 countries, and reaches a weekly global audience of 346

we first told you about the dramatic split yesterday. a nasa satellite captured this picture of the 1 trillion-ton iceberg. it is one of the biggest icebergs ever reported. it's on the western side of ant arc at that. this crack in the larson sea ice shelf had grown more than 120 miles before it broke off this week. producing one of the largest icebergs ever recorded. its size is staggering. more than 2,200 square miles, twice the volume of lake erie. this collapse on the western peninsula of antarctica follows the collapse of two other ice shelves, larson a. and larson b., which broke off around the turn of the century. >> it was sort of unprecedented. >> ken taylor is one of america's foremost ice scientists.
8:17 am
we interviewed him when we visited in february. he says it's not the floating icebergs that are concerning, but the fact that these ice shelves serve as a door stop to keep glacial ice from drifting out to sea. >> that ice can flow into the sea and melt. that does cause a rise in sea level. there are several spots around here and antarctica that are believed to be in this irreversible situation, where ice on the ground is going to flow into the sea and there is nothing we can do to stop it. >> he believes that could drive sea levels up before than the three feet predicted. scientists say the landscape has changed fundamentally. now researchers will be studying how this break will affect the rest of the ice shelf. >> the importance of what's happening here is that it gives a proxy as to what may happen to the rest of antarctica as the rest of antarctica keeps warming up. sort of a wake-up call for what is looming ahead. call for what is looming ahead. >> interesting that they cause

well, cash may be king but credit card giant is offering incentives to do away with cash altogether. 50% of owners of restaurants and food trucks will receive $10,000 each. they'll upgrade their payment technology and commit to being completely cashless. cbs business contributor mellody hobson. it's been a while, my friend. i feel like for years we've been talking about going cashless. visa's finally doing it. tell us about it. >> it's a very small program. it's 50 merchants. keep in mind they have 50 million. it's a small step. $500,000.
8:23 am
the idea is cash is their biggest competitor. cash is still the number one way we pay in this country, so we're growing around the world. it's cash. they want to take some of that business away for cash. >> who benefits when we go cashless? >> certainly the credit card companies, debit card companies, the banks. remember, every time we swipe, they get a piece of the action. more for american express. certainly the contactless companies like google peay, they're going to accept the digital networks and at the end of the day, the merchant. you don't have to worry about theft, how you close out the cash register at the end of the day, taking the money to the bank at the end of the day. all of those things go away. it saves a lot of times for the merchants. >> you don't worry about visual
