let's go places. welcome to cbs this morning. i'm norah o'donnell with gayle king and vladimir dudiers. >> roy moore says he's going to take off the gloves with two weeks left in the campaign. moore made his first public appearance at a rally last night. he denied allegations including those from a decade ago. >> hay, hey, hey. >> follow orders. >> outside, members of moore's team confronted reporters covering the rally. at one point as you see in the campaign an official shove add cameraman. >> mark strassmann is in fort pain, alabama, where the rally was held. mark, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. roy moore's campaign has yet to comment about what happened with that photographer and moore has spent much of the last couple of weeks avoiding questions about his alleged sexual misbehavior

priority. the tax overhaul. senate republicans hope for a vote this week on a bill but it's not clear they will have enough support for it to pass. nancy cordes is on capitol hill with why some republicans are not on board. nancy, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. republicans can only afford to lose two votes in the senate and right now gop leaders are scrambling to accommodate the holdout. senator ron johnson of wisconsin and steve daines of montana said they will not vote for this bill in its current form. they worry that small business owners are getting a worse deal than big companies under the plan. corporations would get a sizable tax cut in the plan, but that's not going to help small business owners who have to pay individual taxes directly, which johnson says affects over 90% of american companies. now, these two senators say they are willing to change their votes if the bill is changed, but making those changes could put gop leaders in a bind

because it would cost even more money that they then have to try to make up somewhere else. still, already projected to add $1.4 trillion to the deficit over ten years. the president himself is going to be working to win over some of the holdouts today when he comes to have lunch with all the republican senators. the second time he's done so. one perennial wild card, however who does seal to be on board is senator rand paul of kentucky. he announced he is going to vote for the bill and the president issued a personal tweet of thanks in response, norah. >> all right, busy day for you, nancy, thank you so much. some native american groups are calling president trump insensitive. he referred to democratic senator elizabeth warren as pocahontas during a ceremony honoring world war ii veterans. major garrett is at the white house where the incident added more drama to the legal fight over who's running a watchdog government agency. >> reporter: good morning. this fight is over the consumer protection bureau created after

the great recession and, believe it or not, there are clashing lawsuits over who is now in charge. meanwhile, president trump took aim at the democratic senator who helped create this agency, injecting race into the most benign of oval office settings. >> you're very, very special people. you were here long before any of us were here. >> reporter: with navajo code talkers at his side, president trump chose the event to reignite a smoulderring racially charged feud with massachusetts senator elizabeth warren. >> we have a representative in congress who they say was here a long time ago, they call her pocahontas. >> i've answered the questions about how i was born. >> reporter: warren in 2012 could not back up family folklore that she was native american. candidate trump mocked the inconsistency. >> pocahontas is not happy, she's not happy.

she's got less native american blood in her than i have, okay. >> i guess he thinks it's going to shut me up. >> reporter: warren accused the president of using a racial slur. warren is also in the middle of a new power struggle over who is running the consumer financial protection bureau or cfpb. >> president trump is trying to create chaos at the agency. >> reporter: she appeared with the deputy director of the cfpb, leandra english, an obama administration holdover who sued the trump administration after it appointed budget chief mick mulvaney to replace former director richard cordray. mulvaney questions the bureau's benefit to consumers and its secretive procedures. >> i'm sorry, i'm not allowed to comment. >> reporter: bureau staff arrived on monday unsure who their boss was. in competing e-mails, english and mulvaney both claimed the acting director title. >> you're the acting director? >> -- in an official capacity --

>> reporter: in a fund-raising e-mail sent out last night, warren accused the president of using gutter politics to distract from what she said was the administration's effort to allow big banks to, quote, scam ordinary americans. for its part, the white house said warren's attempt to claim native american heritage made the pocahontas nickname fair game. >> major garrett, thank you very much. another former staffer of democratic congressman john conyers is accusing him of sexual harassment. his former deputy chief of staff deanna maher told conyers touched her leg and once suggested sharing a hotel suite. the house ethics committee is already investigating a report conyers paid a woman more than $20,000 to settle a complaint. the current longest serving member of congress denies any wrongdoing. he stepped down as the top democrat on the house judiciary

committee. senator al franken vows to regain the trust of minnesota voters. he returned to capitol hill yesterday while continuing to face allegations of sexual misconduct. franken first drew backlash over a photo from 2006 uso tour. three other women allege he also groped them when photographers took pictures during campaign events. >> from the stories, it's been clear that there are some women and one is too many, who feel that i've done something disrespectful and that's hurt them and for that i am tremendously sorry. >> franken is dismissing calls to resign from the senate. >> harvey wieinstein faces allegation of sex trafficking in a new lawsuit. the actress says the disgraced movie mogul sexually assaulted her in 2014 during the cannes film festival in france. in an interview first on cbs this morning, she says weinstein

lured her to his hotel room with the promise of a movie role. noble's lawsuit claims weinstein recruits, solicits and entices young female actresses. jericka duncan is here. >> reporter: good morning. she says she met weinstein three months before the alleged assault. she says that's when weinstein told her he had a film role in mind for her and when he said it will be good for you, she believed him. >> i still can hear it, the rattle from -- while he had grip of me. >> reporter: british actress kadian noble said she was forced into a hotel bathroom and sexually assaulted by harvey weinstein in may of 2014. noble says weinstein approached her at the majestic hotel during the film festival in cannes, france. inviting her upstairs to his room to watch her audition reel. >> it seems like it went on forever and he basically took

just completely touched me inappropriate and forced my hand in places. >> reporter: noble is suing harvey weinstein, his brother bob and the weinstein company for damages. according to the complaint, as noble fought back, weinstein told her, everything will be taken care of for you if you relax. jeff herman is noble's attorney. >> harvey wasn't acting alone. harvey wasn't allowed and enabled to do what he did to kadian and other women without help. >> reporter: the federal lawsuit claims weinstein engaged in sex trafficking by traveling from the u.s. to london and france where the alleged assault took place. cbs news legal analyst rikki klieman. >> by using this sex trafficking law, you could extend the statute of limitations for a civil suit to ten years. so it's a very creative use of the sex trafficking law. >> harvey was a legend, he was

someone i thought was going to make my dream a reality. >> reporter: noble says this experience has broken her. >> i'm not the same person, you know, i've had to have counseling, just so much, but i've had to keep it to myself. i've kept it to myself. i've kept it to myself. >> reporter: herman believes his client is entitled to millions. the authorities in los angeles and new york have been communicating about other allegations. harvey weinstein has already unequivocally denied any wrongdoing. we reached out to harvey and bob weinstein and the weinstein company for comment on this suit, but vu not heard back. >> again this is a situation, too, i asked her, did you tell the police, did you tell someone. she said she did tell a friend and she said she also told one of harvey weinstein's assistants so -- >> jericka, thank you very much. investigators are trying to track down who is responsible for two mail bombs that went off in the bay area. our cbs san francisco station kpix reports one was sent to a police officer's home in alameda

just outside oakland on friday. the other went to a house in east palo alto two months ago. both caused minor injuries. postal investigators believe one person built both bombs and it's likely they were sent by the same person. the atf is among the agencies helping with the investigation. nearly 60,000 travelers are stranded in indonesia today after volcanic ash closed bali's international airport. time lapsed video shows the clouds more than 14,000 feet above mt. lagun. the highest alert level is now in place. rebecca henschke is in bali near the volcano. >> reporter: it is sending out thick clouds of ash smoke and gas behind me with increasing intensity. the airport here in bali has been closed for a second day because of this threat of an imminent eruption from the volcano at night which is in

just a few hours time. we're able to see a red glow of the lava in the crater, a sign volcanologists say that the molten lava has risen to the top and shows that a full-scale eruption could be soon. the government has told people to get out from an area 12 kilometer radius area, saying it's no longer safe. but when we went in there today, people are still living there, going about their business, reluctant to move away from their homes and their livelihoods. but the government is saying that they do need to get out and they may be forcibly evicted as an eruption, they say, is imminent. back to you in the studio, norah. >> all right, rebecca henschke in bali, thank you. prince harry and his prince harry is opening up about his engagement with megan

mark markle, and he is saying that she is the win. in the first joint interview, we go to charlie at kensington palace in london. good morning. >> good morning. he may be a prince and she may be a famous tv star, but the proposal took place over a chicken dinner here at home, but in this case, home is kensington palace. >> reporter: once prince harry got down on bended knee, meghan didn't think twice. >> yes, as a matter of fact, i could barely finish you proposing and i said, i can say yes now. >> yes, and she said yes, and hugs, and rings in my finger, and i said, can i give you the ring, and she said of course. >> reporter: that chemistry is no act says mishal husan who conducted the interview. >> what you saw is how they were off camera as well.

i was struck by the obvious bond between the two of them. >> can you show us the ring, please. >> reporter: and harry has tried to distance himself from a media he is saying is operating with racial undertones with meghan who describes herself as biracial. >> of course, it is disheartening, and that is the shame that it is the climate in the world to focus on that or that it would be discriminatory in that sense, but i think that at the end of the day, i am just proud of who i am and where i come from and we have never put any focus on that, and we have just focused on who we are as a couple. >> reporter: and harry said that he had to really make sure that she understood where she was going. >> i had to have frank conversations with her to tell her what she is letting herself this is a big deal and whatever we have to tackle individually or together is always going be us as a team.

american red cross officials to make sure that texans are getting the help they deserve. in the august interview on "cbs this morning" red cross ceo and president gail mcgovern defended the organization's spending. >> we are very proud of the fact that we keep the overhead low. >> reporter: the red cross says that 91 cents of every dollar goes to help victims. >> i don't know if i believe that. >> reporter: senator grassly said that he criticized the red cross n. a memo he claimed that they spent one fourth of the $487.6 million raised for the relief effort. he also accused the organization of trying to kwaush a congressional watchdog review of its practices. the red cross told us that they strongly disagree with grassley's report. the red cross says that it has

♪ good morning, to our viewers in the west. it is tuesday, november 28th, 2017. welcome back to "cbs this morning." ahead, we'll talk to republican senator rob portman about tax reform. what it will take to pass and how long it will take for workers to see benefits from that and prince harry's fiancee has come a long way from south l.a. a look at meghan markle's journey from windsor hills to windsor castle. first today's eye eacher. roy moore made his first public appearance in 11 days at a rally last night. >> he spent the last couple of week as voiding questions about his alleged sexual misbehavior four decades ago but to his supporters he had a lot to say. republicans can only afford to lose two votes in the senate

gop leaders scrambling to accommodate the hold-out. >> president trump referred to her as pocahontas during a ceremony honoring navajo world war ii veterans. >> sending out thick clouds of ash, smoke and gas behind me i has been closed for a second day. >> he may be a prince and she may be a famous tv star but the proposal took place over chicken dinner at home. >> love everybody about them. >> truly bizarre story. duel for a top job. >> the power struggle that would make an episode of "the apprentice" tame. >> two people showed up each claiming to be in charge and tonight, ladies and gentlemen, they settle it in the octagon. that's the only way. >> yeah. >> it's time to regulate!

>> i'm gayle king with norah o'donnell and vladimir duthiers. president trump heads to capitol hill to push for tax reform. he says he wants to have the overhaul finished before the end of the year but the clock is ticking and the bill faces challenges in the senate. >> senators ron johnson of wisconsin and steve danes of montana have both said they do not support the bill in its current form. they are worried the bill does not do enough for so-called pass-through businesses. the owners of those pay taxes on their personal returns. this covers more than 90% of u.s. businesses. >> at least seven other republicans have not said how they will vote. they are concerned about issues ranging from the impact on the federal deficit to removing obamacare's individual mandate. republicans can only afford to lose two votes. >> rob portman is a member of the senate finance committee with us from capitol hill this morning. senator, good morning. thanks so much for joining us. >> thanks for having me on. >> we laid out two republicans

currently against the bill. how do you see things changing? >> i think about 90% of the republicans have said they are supportive of it, in fact, strongly supportive then we've got some folks still look at various aspects but all want to get a yes and all want middle class tax cuts and simplification and pro-growth policies and something this complicated there will be differences but i feel comfortable accident we'll come together. >> one of the interesting things, if you address some of the concerns that some of the senators like ron johnson have which is to help these pass-through businesses which account for 90% of businesses in the country, do that but add to the deficit and lose some of your republicans who are, of course, deficit hawks. how do you find compromise on that. >> you're right. there is a balance here but i will say among those companies that are called pass-through companies, it is the majority of companies in our country and employ about 50% of the people. they're significant tax cuts because the businesses will invest more in their plant and

equipment and people that we hire, productivity for more economic growth. that's in there. his question is whether it's a balance. in other words, whether there's parity with the multinational companies to be competitive globally. it is a balance but in the end we'll get there because overwhelmingly republicans and a lot of democrats by the way are very supportive of the middle class tax cuts, the simplification and juice the general focus which is how to get more jobs and increase wage. >> so how is this really a tax cut, senator, for the middle class. "the new york times" analyst found that more than 13 million middle class families will be paying more. >> well, if you look at the information that's objective which would be the joint committee on taxation and the nonpartisan group up here, it's pretty clear and there's some analysis of this, a tax foundation a good place to look on line or jct.gov but if you're i median company income you will get a tax cut on average of about $2,375.

and that doesn't include the advantage you get from having again a more competitive economy that many have said that's several thousand dollars through that same family as well every year. now for families that are in a living paycheck to paycheck it's a big deal and progressive in the sense if you are a family of four, two kids making00,000 bucks you get a 36% tax cut on average if you're making 85,000 bucks you get a 20%, $165,000 a year 8% tax cut so the benefit is really focused on the middle class and in this range of 30 to 70,000 bucks. >> there is an argument for corporate tax cuts and it's that they will reinvest and pass those savings on to middle class americans. but the tax policy center said it could take up to 20 years. why will it take so much time to put money back in employees' pockets. >> i think ovary economist who looks at it says we have to change the way we tax our companies because they can't be competitive and that some of the

benefit is going to go directly to workers. people disagree. some say that's 80% of the benefit. some say 25% of the benefit but you're right. that's going to go to families and working family as cross america. i think it'll happen very quickly. i know there is a one-year delay in the corporate cuts and there is an immediate cut for families, but i do think during that time period because expensing will be something that a lot of companies will take advantage of. immediate expensing and a lot of investment and that's what the economists seem to say. i can't understand why it would take that long. what you'll see is immediate decisions made by companies knowing they'll have this ability to invest more increase productivity and get wages back up. >> do you think it was appropriate for president trump to call one of your colleagues, senator warren pocahontas? >> well, you know, they have a back and forth that i'm going to stay out of. it's long-standing. that event yesterday was to honor an incredible achievement which was these navajo code talkers and should have focused on that and what they did in

world war ii is truly spectacular and, you know, there aren't a lot of them left an it was a time to pay tribute to them and honor them. >> yes, a lot of people agree with you on that, senator. we thank you for taking the time. before you go, are you as excited about harry and meghan getting engaged as i am. >> poor harry, he hasn't gotten the attention he deserves. >> i can tell, senator -- >> seems like a nice guy. >> i can tell you love love too. >> thank you very much. >> we learned a short time ago that prince harry and his fiancee will be married in may at windsor castle outside london. it says an exact date has not been chosen. markle will be baptized into the royal family's angfully can church before the wedding. in their first interview the royal couple told our partners at the bbc how the relationship just grew over the past 18 months. >> i think we were able to really have so much time just to connect and we never went longer than would weeks without seeing

each other even though we were obviously doing a long distance relationship so it's -- we made it work. >> the fact that i fell in love with meghan so incredibly quickly was sort of confirmation to me that everything -- all the stars were aligned. everything was just perfect. it was this beautiful woman sort of literally tripped and fell into my life. i fell into her life and the fact that she -- i know the fact that she'll be really unbelievably good at the job part of it as well is honestly a huge relief to me because she'll be able to deal with all the stuff that comes with it. >> it is like the stars aligned. >> it really is. >> so adorable together. >> her engagement takes the american actress a long way from her humble beginnings in los angeles. jamie yuca shows us her improbable journey. >> reporter: meghan markle marrying prince harry is being called a 21 century sintdzer rell la story at buckingham palace.

fresh faced markle comes from the humblest of beginnings going from this working class south l.a. home to windsor castle. this is where markle's rags to riches fairy tale started here at her childhood home. earlier a note was passed out on kensington palace stationary tanking for privacy. she started in high school with they are theater career but in it came time to running roles she would run out of gas on the way to auditions. >> i love this car and in the morning would start and sounded like a steamboat engine. >> reporter: she was the first in her family to glad wait college. markle believes her mixed race may have prevented her from getting roles in a label driven industry. but led to her starring role as rachel in the long-running series "suits." >> do attractive women intimidate you. >> reporter: she had wed trevor engelson in 2011. the marriage lasted just two years. markle also has become as much an activist as an actor. just like her fiance across the pond.

>> good evening. >> what may be the most important feature about this royal couple is the two really like each other. andrew morton wrote princess diana's biography. >> you can see the sparkle in each other's eyes. call me old fashion but that's a great romance. >> reporter: in an interview she said i personally love a great love story. she is certainly writing her own. jamie yuccas, abc news, los angeles. >> i love that they met, guys, on a blind date. most blind dates i have i say to the person are you mad at me about something? this is clearly that something that clicked from the beginning and during the news conference i love how she was just rubbing his arm. such a sweet tender moment between the two of them. >> apparently the queen's corgis took to her immediately. >> always a good sign. >> always bark at him but they like her. >> something special about the two of them together. >> many americans on this giving tuesday will open their wallets for charity. ahead learn how to make sure an organization is not a

today is giving tuesday. it's a movement that began back in 2012 to boost charitable giving at the end of the year. people donated more than $281 billion to charities last year. a new bank rate survey out this morning says 40% of people give money. but fraud is a big problem here. two government agencies are warning consumers to be wary of scammers. cbs news analyst jill schlessinger is here to tell you what to look for. i got an e-mail yesterday from david reuben stein asking me to donate to a charity. and i was just about to click on and do it but it signed, we all have a lot to be thankful for, dave. i've never known him to be a

dave. so i e-mailed him and said, is this you? and he said no, it's not. but if this person hadn't signed it dave, i would have never questioned it because i didn't check the e-mail until i became suspicious. that's well played out. >> it sure is. the irs warned that charitable frauds are on the rise. and it usually coincide wes a disaster, maybe hurricane relief. but just like you said, it can happen from my area. so i know everyone is going to get inundated with asks today and throughout the end of the year. healthy skepticism would be great. and the most important thing to remember, please, please tell everyone you know don't be giving cash, don't send wires, don't share your personal information. this is identity theft, as well. one of the key characteristics of these frauds is that they will tend to sound like a charity that you're familiar with. so it may not be the american cancer society. they may change it to the american cancer organization, something close but not the

actual charity. >> so what are the safest ways to send your money? >> the safest ways would be clear, to have a check, credit card, a text is fine. you have to keep good records. if you want to check to see whether the charity is legitimate, the irs has a great tool that you should be looking at. it will help you understand whether or not it has a tax i.d. number. all you have to do is irs.gov plus charity. you'll get to the tool. that's a wonderful with way to check on that. >> how do you check if the percent of the money you're giving is going to the cause you're wanting it to? comparing compareties, charity navigator looks at each one. generally speaking, we like to see that 75% of your money goes to the charity's ultimate outcome rather than the overhead. if you're seeing half and half, that's not a good sign. so check that out. charity navigator.org, really a

bordering on obsession. >> this is my research room. >> reporter: over the past year, weaver collected a library of documents, letters, and pictures hoping to parse the truth from fork lore. >> one of the elders in the community said, you know, his name wasn't neris. it was nathan and he was from maryland. >> the oldest letter from 1895. >> after digging for over 2500 hours, it started to come together. >> i got so excited. >> reporter: debby staples, a great granddaughter of green's had heard the tales of whisky from her grandmother. >> she had no reason to make up the story like that. >> reporter: in the late 1850s jack daniel, an orphan, started working for a wealthy landowner and whisky distiller named dan call. >> this is where jack daniel grew up. >> reporter: okay. he teamed daniel with the slave

and the main whisky man. >> after slavery he started his own company. and the person he went to first was his mentor. and he did not see race as a barrier. she began pulling out all the research. >> reporter: weaver soon found evidence in black and white. a 1972 article in the tennessee historical quarterly listed neris green as jack daniel's first head distiller. mark mccown is the president of jack daniels brands. >> when we've known and understood the weight of this story, all i can offer is anything we can do to continue to honor the name, we'll do. >> the company first acknowledged green as jack daniel's mentor last year. >> there was an enormous amount of blow back. >> such as it? >> it ranged from positive commentary to very visit yachtic. it was a intense time in america, as well. then we were into that month or two leading up to the u.s.

presidential election. i thought the last thing that america needed at that time was for jack daniel to come out -- after all this commentary and raise up the story again. >> reporter: people had been saying this for a very long time. but there was not one shred of proof. and so if you have a story that you know will be controversial, because most people don't listen to the full story. >> what do they hear? >> they immediately jack daniel had slaves. >> by all accounts, he did not. it is believed that daniel opened his distillery in 1866, a year after the 13th amendment abolished slavery. and working with daniel helped to make green and his children wealthier than many of their white neighbors. today green is mentioned in tours of the distillery. >> that's jack daniel himself. and this is his crew. back in the early 1900s.

>> there's no known photograph of green. but this is his son george. sitting right next to jack daniel. at a time when black employees were often relegated to the back. three living green descend ends still work in the distillery. including stables. >> it means a lot to me that know the world will know. our country is divided, i know there's a lot of hate going but, you know, to be in the south and to have a relationship with someone that you would think that would never happen. >> despite the deep racial divides of the american south in the 19th century, an improbable relationship brewed. one at the heart of a american brand. >> for me the project ends when i can go anywhere around the world and say neris green and people know who he is. i have never lived in this type of climate of race, and when i look at this story, this is the

one story that has given me hope through everything else. >> weaver hopes to honor green's legacy by building a memorial park, republishing jack daniel's biography and creating a new whisky called uncle neris with the scholarship going to support the neris green various efforts. there's so much about that relationship between the two men that is just astounded me. one of the things that came out of this story was how jack daniel treated his black and white workers. and he paid them, essentially, according to weaver, and according to the distillery, he paid them the same wage for the same work. >> wow. >> back then -- it was based on tenure. >> wow. >> how long you had been with the company. >> i admire fawn weaver.

we need an investigation we need to call her. all the work she's done. that's amazing! >> i know. she's a passionate young woman. >> no wonder her dad was the author of "love child" for motown. >> can you believe that? >> such an incredible story. >> incredible. >> can you buy this? is it available? >> yes, it is. >> she's terrific. >> yeah. >> thank you. >> that was a great story. beautifully done. >> thank you. >> the halls of the white house are transformed for the holiday's. ahead the make over that doubles time-honored traditions. hear more of "cbs this morning" on pod cast on itunes and apple's app. jennifer egan discusses her new book "manhattan beach" and why she writes the first drafts of her book by hand. you're watching "cbs this morning." y hand. you're watching "cbs this morning."
