let's go places. >> welcome to "cbs this morning." gayle king is off owe bianna golodryga is with us. president trump is trying to undermine obamacare on two fronts. the white house announced it will end government subsidies for health insurers. that follows a move by the president to bypass obamacare rules and help employers buy cheaper insurance. >> the government has paid billions to reduces costs for low income americans and the president called that a bailout of insurance companies through unlawful payment. >> democratic congressional leaders chuck schumer and nancy pelosi responded in a statement saying, quote, millions of hard-working american families will suffer just because president trump wants them to. nancy cordes is on capitol hill. the president is following through on a pledge he's made for a few months now. >> reporter: good morning. this is something the president has threatened to do several

times but each time in the past he's been talked out of it by republican leaders who fear that it will drive up premiums or prompt insurers to sue the government. but now that they've failed to pass an obamacare replacement, it appears that the administration is taking things into its own hands. >> i've been saying that, mike, i think you'll agree for a long time, let obamacare fail. >> reporter: president trump often predicts the law's demise but now he's taking a much more active role in nullifying his predecessor's signature achievement. >> we'll let obamacare fail and then the democrats are going to come to us and say, how do we fix it? how do we fix it? or how do we come up with a new plan. >> reporter: the administration is eliminating $7 billion in subsidy payments to insurers. that money helps bring down premiums for more than 6 million low-income americans who are enrolled on obamacare's individual market. the nonpartisan congressional budget office has estimated ending these subsidies will push

you will premiums by about 20% in 2018. and actually add $200 billion to the deficit over ten years. >> we are moving toward lower costs and more options in the health care market. >> reporter: on thursday the president also signed an executive order to allow employers to buy low cost insurance plans across state lines. the plans likely won't be required to offer certain standard benefits currently mandated by obamacare. last night in a joint statement, democratic leaders nancy pelosi and chuck schumer called the elimination of subsidies a spiteful act of vast, pointless sabotage. but republican house speaker paul ryan praised the decision saying under our constitution, the power of the purse belongs to congress, not the executive branch. republicans actually fought these subsidies in court a couple of years ago and won. they argued democrats messed up when they wrote the affordable care act and failed to give congress the power to actually

allocate these funds. that's why the administration has had to do it, at least until now, charlie. >> nancy, president trump tweeted this morning the democrats obamacare is imploding. massive subsidy payments to their pet insurance companies has stopped. dems should call me to fix. what is happening next? where is it all going? >> reporter: now they'll have to decide whether to pass some kind of measure to keep these payments going. that's going to look to some of their supporters like they're propping up a law that they don't like. but their alternative is to run the risk of getting blamed if premiums do go up. now, the good news for low income americans is that if premiums rise on the exchanges, then their tax credits will rise as well. so they shouldn't be hurt. >> thanks. in about 2 1/2 hours around 9:30 pacific president trump will unveil his strategy for dealing with iran in a white house address. he is expected to decertify iran

is complying with the landmark nuclear agreement but stopped short of tearing it up. instead he's expected to give congress the power to reimpose sanctions against iran. well, we have reaction from tehran but first margaret brennan at the white house. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. president trump will sanction iran's revolutionary guard and say that nuclear deal is no longer in america's best interest. his top national security advisers have scrambled to stop him from tearing up that deal and today he'll ask congress and the secretary of state to fix it. this is a high stakes gamble aimed at unraveling president obama's signature foreign policy achievement. >> clearly the president has -- he's deep in thought to say the least about the way ahead in iran. >> reporter: john kelly said thursday u.s. forces are poised to rein in their destabilizing behavior in the middle east. >> we have footprints on the

ground, naval and air forces there to demonstrate our resolve, our friendship. >> reporter: today president trump will announce how he'll push back on iran's ballistic missile test in support for terror organizations like hezbollah. >> the iranian regime supports terrorism and exports violence. >> reporter: but trump administration sources tell cbs news that the president will not deliver on his campaign promise to tear up the obama era deal to freeze iran's nuclear program. >> why on earth would anybody have signed a deal like that? >> reporter: u.s. intelligence confirms that iran has abided by the terms of the agreement. but today the president will refuse to certify its compliance. instead he'll punt to congress and allow it to decide within 60 days whether to reimpose sanctions on iran. that puts a lot of power in the hands of senators tom cotton and bob corker who setting new

goalposts for iran proposing a new law that puts indefinite restrictions on iran's nuclear program, bolsters inspections and snaps back sanctions if iran comes within a one-year breakout period of making a nuclear weapon. president trump has asked secretary of state rex tillerson to negotiate a second add-on nuclear deal, but neither iran nor any of the five partner countries of the u.s. have agreed to it and privately they accuse president trump of risking national security for political gain. >> yeah, europe, russia and china monitoring things closely, margaret, thank you. meantime, leaders in iran are promising a tough response if the u.s. abandons the deal. elizabeth palmer is in tehran with how one lawmaker said a u.s. withdrawal could lead to global chaos. elizabeth, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. everybody in iran is waiting anxiously to hear president trump's remarks. already the currency has dived

in value in anticipation of aggressive moves from the white house. president rehani the moderate president of iran said if america moves to undermine or pull out of the deal its own credibility will suffer worldwide but it's the revolutionary guards who have sounded downright threatening. they know they'll be targeted. their head said that if there are new sanctions against his organization, then the u.s. had better move its military bases a thousand miles back from iran's borders, in other words, out of missile range. but the bottom line is that iran really needs foreign investment to create jobs for its young educated workforce and whatever the white house says is bound to drive that foreign investment very far away and it's really going to hurt. charlie. >> liz palmer tehran. thank you. pakistan said the american-canadian freed after five years as hostages has left

the country. papers native caitlin coleman and her canadian husband joshua boyle were freed wednesday along with their three young children. american intelligence alerted pakistan's government the family was being moved from afghanistan into pakistan. they were reportedly transported in the trunk of a car, pakistani forces opened fire and killed their taliban linked captors. margaret brennan asked john kelly about the rescue. >> can you explain what the process was with this pakistan raid, what the president's involvement was? >> we had arrangements to transport them back to the united states or to canada any way they wanted to go, medical treatment along the way, a lot would be psychological treatment. they've been essentially living in a hole for five years and they're being cared for now as we speak. >> coleman was pregnant when the couple was captured in 2012 while backpacking in afghanistan. all three children were born in captivity. northern california's devastating wildfires are now the deadliest in the state's

history. they have killed at least 31 people. 400 others are reportedly missing in sonoma county alone. officials believe many are just out of touch with their families. at least 25,000 people in the region have evacuated. 21 major wildfires are burning statewide this morning. the last home of peanuts creator charles schulz was one of the buildings lottery. carter, good morning. >> good morning. authorities are now investigating to determine if downed power lines are what caused the fire that burned so many homes just like this one in santa rosa. this is what thousands of people have to come home to. charred remains that stretches for miles. what's over here back on this end. >> this is the front porch. right here. this is the deck, the redwood deck and that's the front door. >> tom left his house monday with just the clothes on his back. he and his wife sue lived here

for 28 years. what is it like to come back here and see all of your stuff like this? >> it is just stuff. the hard thing is the photo albums and like the movies is the hard thing. >> reporter: in so many neighborhoods like the fellbaums, it's an apocalyptic sight. the mailbox still standing here. authorities are now moving on to the recovery phase searching for victims within the rubble. >> identification is going to be hard. so far in the recoveries we have found bodies that were almost completely intact and we have found bodies that were nothing more than ash and bones. >> reporter: elsewhere the fight to preserve what's left is far from over. >> all right, let's go. >> crews in calistoga are bat e battling not just the weather but the terrain climbing up steep hillsides. >> there's little pockets we can't get to. we saved some houses down the street and there's no better feeling, you know.

>> reporter: jason stevens has been living in this parking lot since his apartment burned to the ground. all of his other possessions are gone. >> those things can be replaced but there's a lot of things that can't that people have lost. i consider myself fortunate. >> as bad as this is it could have been so much worse. >> it could have been so much worse. >> reporter: one of the most astounding things about the fire how indiscriminately it burned. i'm going to stay in the same position and rotate and you can see the houses across the street are in perfect condition. >> unbelievable, carter. the fire chief said it's going to get worse before it gets better. thank you so much. harvey weinstein could face criminal charges over alleged sexual assaults. investigators in new york and london are reviewing complaints related to the disgraced movie mogul. the list of his public accusers is growing. at least 35 women have now described inappropriate conduct by weinstein. two more women came forward

yesterday with allegations of sexual assault. now former actress thome ann roberts is shares stories. thnchlths film producer had denied any allegations of nonconsenseual sex one of his accusers recalled a life-altering experience that happened when she was just 20 years old. >> he was in the bathtub. he tried to coerce me to take my top off. >> reporter: tomi-ann roberts said she quit acting after she was sexually harassed by harvey weinstein. >> who on the over end would believe me. >> reporter: erika rosenbaum said 15 years ago he grabbed me by the neck as he pleasured

himself and took me into the bathroom. i was afraid of him. kate beckonsale was -- >> >> it's the entitlement of too many men and it's epidemic and when they're famous and they get talked about. >> reporter: jane fonda says she regrets not speaking up when rosana arcetrevealed an inappropriate encounter with weinstein. >> did you ever get to experience the i going to say the mogul aspect in you never got any of that? >> howard, as you know only too well it doesn't work that way. >> it doesn't? >> it works that way for the actors. >> don't tell me it doesn't work that way. >> the movies are too expensive, the risks are too great.

>> weinstein is losing another source of income. he had what was called an imprint at the shed book group which announced yesterday they're shutting down weinstein books. so i mean a lot of people moving out. they want to distance themselves from the weinstein company and many more women feeling this is the time to come forward whether they've been dealing with it for years, they're speaking out now. >> thank you so much. to north carolina prison employees died when inmates tried to escape. officials say inmates set a fire at the institute in elizabeth city. it happened inside the prison's sewing plant. 35-year-old justin smith and 50-year-old veronica darden were killed. boethd both employees worked in the plant. none of the other 725 inmates escaped. house speaker paul ryan will lead a delegation to puerto rico one day after the house passed a

$36.5 billion disaster aid package. it including $4.9 billion in community disaster loans to help puerto rico. president trump criticized the territory's finances yesterday. he tweeted we cannot keep fema, the military, and the first responders in puerto rico forever. david begnaud is in san juan where the president is paul ryan is expected to answer questions. the question is how much money from the bill they passed last night is going to go to puerto rico. the president said they can't stay here forever but paul ryan has indicated the island will get what it needs. three weeks after the storm made landfall you have 45% of the people who don't have water. 83% don't have electricity and the government says they may not get it until march. yesterday we went to a medical center where a doctor seeing patients took a break to go outside and put diesel in a generator because it's run out. that's what it's like to be a medical provider here in puerto rico right now.

we also spoke with a retired general. he was the commander during katrina. he said maria was ten times worse than katrina. he called the response a crying damn shame. he said we need more fema members and more supplies to get the job done. >> more of everything. that's right. david begnaud, thank you so much. an explosive investigation by "60 minutes" and the "washington post" explores how opioid addiction turned into a national epidemic. what happen when the pharmaceutical industry took on the drug enforcement administration. you're going to want to see this. but first at 7:19, time to check your local weather.

california's newly legalized $7 billion marijuana industry. the san francisco chronicle reports the fires likely caused more than a billion dollars in crop losses. at least 20 pot farms in sonoma, mendocino and napa counties are badly damaged. 91 people die every day in america from opioid drug overdoses. in an explosive joint investigation by "60 minutes" and "the washington post," whistle-blowers tell bill whitaker how the drug industry with the help of congress turned an epidemic into a full blown crisis. here's a preview of sunday's report. >> this is an industry that's out of control. what they want to do is do what they want to do and not worry about what the law is. and if they don't follow the law in drug supply, people die. that's just it. people die. >> joe is a tough, blunt, former dea deputy assistant media there are with a law degree, a pharmacy degree and a smoldering

rage at the unrelenting death toll from opioids. his greatest ire is reserved for the distributors. some of them multibillion dollar fortune 500 companies. they are the middle men that ship the pain pills from manufacturers like purdue pharma and johnson & johnson to drugstores all over the country. he accuses the distributors of fueling the opioid epidemic by turning a blind eye to pain pills being diverted to illicit use. >> this is an industry that allowed millions and millions of drugs to go into bad pharmacies and doctors' offices that distributed them out to people who had no legitimate need for those drugs. >> who are these distributors? >> the three largest distributors are cardinal health, mckesson and amir source bergen. they control probably 85% or the

90% of the drugs going downstream. >> you know the implication of what you're saying, that these big companies knew that they were pumping drugs into american communities that were killing people. >> that's not an implication. that's a fact. that's exactly what they did. >> the health care distribution alliance represents the drug distribution companies. it told "60 minutes" they wanted to work with the dea and that effective enforcement must be a two-way street. bill whitaker is here along with "the washington post" investigator scott hime. let me begin with exactly what was those distributors doing? >> well, the distributors are the companies that ship the drugs from the manufacturers to the pharmacies all across the country. they are required by law to keep track of every single pill they ship. and they're also supposed to alert the dea of anything

suspicious, any suspicious shipments. an example, one small town in west virginia of 390 some people got shipments of 9 million opioid pills over the course of a few years. that should have set off alarm bells within the companies to tell the dea there is a problem here. but the dea whistle-blowers we talked to said that happened again and again and again. >> scott, describe your investigation. it's been more than a year in the making, right? >> that's right, norah. we began this investigation about a year ago and it was begun by a really dogged reporter at "the washington post" bied name of lenny bernstein and lenny wanted to get answers to a couple of key question, why were so many people dying of opioid epidemic of overdoses and where are all these drugs coming from? he started crashing the phones calling people and he came across this guy named joe who was a whistle-blower at the dea. he had been forced out of his job and he ran a little office in the dea called diversion

control division. len economy had never heard of it. i had never heard of it this. is a group of men and women very dedicated dea investigators who do nothing but regulate the pharmaceutical industry and pretty soon we started interviewing other whistle-blowers really amazing people across the country who brought us inside the opioid war between the dea and very powerful forces in washington, d.c. >> and, bill, i'm sure you spoke to lawmakers about this. what was their reaction? >> we tried to speak to lawmakers. we did speak to some of them. but the whistle-blowers we spoke to said that the drug industry was so powerful, so wealthy, so influential, during the course of the debate over the bill, they pumped $106 million into lobbying congress on the bill and on other legislation and the sponsors of the bills got campaign contributions, some of

them more than $100,000. and the whistle-blowers told us that they thought the influence of the drug companies was more influential than the suffering of their constituent. >> what did you hear from the lawmakers? >> well, we heard -- we tried again and again and again to get to the sponsors of the bills. we called them for months. we actually went to their offices in washington, d.c. and in one instance had the door shut in our face. we were not able to get to the sponsors of the bill to hear what they had to say. >> i mean the implications, scott, not only did people know about it, but that they were complicit in it because they were profiting from these opioid addictions and deaths, quite frankly. >> that's right. the dea people we spoke to, norah, out in the field were building these case, they were seeing people die, left and right. hundreds of millions of pills coming into these communities and they would build these cases

and send them to washington, d.c. and they would just die on the vine and they didn't understand what was going on, why their cases couldn't get through washington then they started to realize there was a lot of lobbying going own and a lot who worked at the dea lobbying their former colleagues at dea and justices and cases languished. >> this is finally i feel like putting a pace on why is this happening. why is this happening? you know, that question, that simple question. it's because you're explaining it in this investigation. >> in fact, scott, you said this is the swampiest thing you've ever seen in your investigative career. >> well, you know, at the height of the worst drug crisis in this country for congress to pass a law that hobbles the dea's efforts to rein in this epidemic is just -- it takes your breath away. >> the president has promised to drain the swamp. we'll see. >> thank you. you can see the full investigation into what's behind the opioid epidemic in sunday's
