7:05 am
the team of expert divers in hopes to rescue the remain boys and coach in a shorter period of time. here is how this dangerous rescue mission works. each of the boys wears a dive mask interning the murky water. they can barely see anything in front of them. they are led by a diver carrying their oxygen tank and guided by a rope. another follows from behind. the entire journey covers 2.5 miles through deep water and steep climbs. the biggest concern is a pinch point in the cave that is just 15 inches across. in that area the boys have to separate from the divers in order to fit through and reach a small patch of dry land before going back to the water. the thai government says each boy ranging from 11 to 16 years old and the coach was assessed and cleared by a doctor and the boys were made fully aware of the rescue plan agreeing to face whatever it took to get out of
7:06 am
the cave. now officials say it could take 24 to 48 hours to rescue everyone in the cave. theoriesing time and theoriesing the weather. they want to make sure to get everybody out before any sort of heavy rains come and potentially flood that cave which would make the rescue more challenging. mora. >> ben, how do they decide which boys go out first? >> reporter: the local governor here acting as the head of the rescue mission, he says they are taking the strongest out first, that may seem counterintuitive. but the reasoning for that is likely they want the boys have the best chance of surviving getting through the rescue mission first. they want to give the divers the chance to go through this several times before getting to the boys perhaps weaker and would be more risky. mora. >> all the successful rescues have kept morale up. that's important. the rescue team members are

taken to chiang rai hospitals. the boys were admitted yesterday are here. thailand's interior minister says they are strong and seep safe. anna warner is at the to want good morning. >> reporter: and what we have seen is the ambulances arriving bringing the latest boys in quick succession here to the hospital. we do not yet know anything about their medical condition. what we know is the first group of four boys, between the ages of 14 and 16, all of them are reported to be in stable condition. now over the next few days all of these boys will be receiving detailed medical checks. doctors will be looking out for immediate problems like dehide drags, malnutrition. also kept in isolation in case they have any viruses or diseases. you want to keep them separated. and they will will eventually see families. any arrived at the hospital yesterday after a 37-mile

7:09 am
parts, the visibility is poor not only because it's in the dark but also the storm water of the monsoon would have churned up lots of mud on the way. and the cave itself has constrictens on route which cause difficulties. >> toby, this is a challenge even for the most experienced divers. explain to us what it must be like to try to teach a young boy some of whom don't know how to swim how to go threw the perilous journey. >> difficult. no two ways about it. but the divers at the front and cutting edge of the rescue are of a sure of themselves and able to project capability and confidence very clearly. in order to ensure this trust between the rescue team and the divers themselves. >> all right, toby, the world is watching. everyone is watching hoping and praying at the same time but so far so good. thank you for joining us this morning. >> no problems thank you very much. >> and some of the parents have
7:10 am
sent letters to kids inside. one says know that mommy is waiting for you in front of the cave. i miss you please don't feel bad. another mom says dad and momma waiting to arrange the birthday party. please get out soon. mommy knows you can do it. imagine that. the best letter goes to the coach from the parents. please don't blame yourself for this. we want you to rest assured every parent is not upset and angry. and everybody understands and supports you. that must mean a lot. >> and he apologized from inside. you know, you read the letters and you imagine a small boy being under water and you look at the cave and the way it goes, how they can read and have the patience and restraint to make it out. >> one story is that coach. he apparently studied at a buddhist temple. he is a calm guy guy. >> we all sneed a little meditation until this is taken care of. >> true. >> we will bring you news on the rescue as it breaks and ahead -- ahead talk to cave diving

another rescue mission. the four boys who were rescued first, those boys on sunday were rushed to a local hospitalrai. the interior minister said those boys are well and safe but they will need routine checks. there are already 18 divers assigned to this complex operation. the changing conditions inside have increased the urgency of this situation to get these boys out. now, the entire journey covers about 2.5 miles. they go through deep water, steep climbs. the biggest concern is a pinch point in the cave that is just 15 inches across. now, in that area the boys have to separate from the divers that are guiding them in order to fit through and reach a small patch of dry land before they go back down into the water. now, the other issue here, of course, is the weather. we have seen on and off heavy rains here. what they're trying to do is get all these boys out before monsoon rains return, potentially flooding that cave and making this rescue effort

7:36 am
really need to keep in mind. these boys aren't used to being in the water. they don't even know how to swim. they haven't had scuba apparatus on, and then to have to get separated from the rescuer and then get stuck through a small hole, it's going to be stressful for them. >> what are you focusing on? as a layperson, we're just saying, please, hurry, get them out as quickly as they can. when you hear an operation is underway, what are you focusing on and saying, oh, this is going well, or, houston, we have a problem here? >> some people don't understand that just being in over your head is extremely stressful to some people. we don't even let people start cave training until at least 18 years of age, and there's a reason for that. these kids are so young. plus they're supposed to have a good comfort level in the water before they can start. these kids don't even know how to swim. they haven't even been open water scuba training, so they've

8:01 am
through saving 12 soccer players. they have rescued four more of these boys. >> from what we have seen tonight, is those ambulances arriving bringing the latest boys in quick succession to the hospital. we have seen it rise and fall and rise and fall again, and one of those judges is at the cop and that's brett kavana kavanagh. >> a case of international espionage has turned into a murder investigation. we have seen a number of reunificatio reunifications, a handful over the last few weeks, but people across the country are growing more frustrated with what they say is government in action. his cat decided there was way too much going on, way too much talking.
8:02 am
>> leave it to the cat to steal the show, they always do. >> that cat was on a mission, didn't seem to care that his owner was in the middle of an interview. >> he had other plans. >> i'm norah o'donnell with john dickerson and gayle king. there is some breaking news this morning, a second round of rescue operations in thailand is over this morning avenue recovering more people from a flooded cave. rescuers have been trying to save a youth sock ersoccer team their coach since jewuly 23. >> the local governor says there are concerns about more rain and flooding. ben tracey is in thailand with the urgent push to rescue the boys. >> reporter: it was surprisingly dry here today so rescuers were seizing the moment to get as many of the boys out of the cave
8:03 am
as they can before rains return here and the water floods the cave. the second face of this rescue operation is over for the day. four more boys were taken out of the cave on stretchers. they are still pumping water out to make sure that the rescue is as safe as possible. now if the cave were to flood more, the remaining boys could be stuck on a piece of land that is only about 100 square feet. that concern is part of what prompted this risky rescue operation to begin. now to giet out of this cave, oe diver is following with a rope. the journey out of the cave is said to take up to eight hours. one of the most difficult points is a pinch point that's just 15 inches across. that is where these boys have to
8:04 am
separate from the divers just to fit through. officials are telling us that it could take another 24 to 48 hours to finish this entire process, to get everybody out of the cave, but they're clearly ahead of schedule, and that is a good sign. >> it is, ben tracey, it's great, great, great news and we are all waiting and hoping and praying it continues. thanks a lot. the rescued boys are getting a full medical examination at the hospital in thailand. this doctor is trained to conduct exams in similar circumstances. back at the table again.ve you let's talk about the lack of sunlight for over two weeks. what does that do to you when you haven't seen sunlight. >> let's talk about sensory depravati depravation, that essentially makes your brain act unusual. your heart, your blood vessels, there are changes that occur, and without specific areas of the brain that are -- you can't
8:05 am
really have a sense of who you are, but also others around you. >> they're 11 to 16 years old. the brain is still developing, executive dpunfunction is up in air, explain how that would affect children of this age. >> kids of this age are very resilient, between the ages of 10 and 16. they have a lot of blood in their heart and blood vessels so they're able to with stand stress. part of this reserve is actually in their fat stores. because what they have are lots of brown fat and this is metabolically active fact. this is exactly what they need to stay alive. so we would understand that. different from white fat which is not metabolically are in the hospital and they're being kept separate in their family because they're way reasonable doubt abo worried about infection.
8:06 am
>> they're worried about a ba bacteria that's comes from the droppings of bats, the problem is the incubation can be up to three weeks. a quarantine time would where insufficient. the psychological effects are really more severe at this point. so infection would be less. >> it wouldn't you want to be with your parents immediately and getting to hug you. >> this is so critical, i think that children need to be hugged, love is so important, support, they have to understand that their parents are here for them. certainly the divers are there and they have been an incredible and immense support of love and comfort as well. but it's that reunion with parents and family that are so cree. >> the kids on the other hand are sending notes back to their parents saying don't worry about me, i'm fine, everything is okay. i can't help but think how terrified they must be and the
8:07 am
psychological effects this could have on them. >> fear of the unknown, it's dark, we talked about sensory depravation, the brain is trying to stay active keeping itself alert. without that input, your brain really suffers, while some kids can get through better than others, it's really collectively, they have to bond together. so stimulating themselves, talking, meditating, telling stories, this is key to getting to any kind of severe, prolonged situations. >> you must be very encouraged as a doctor by what you're seeing so far? >> very encouraged. it's a credit to their strength, their conditioning. and also their mental condition. >> you just told us so much new information that was really helpful. thank you so much. we're going to learn who president trump wants for the
8:08 am
supreme court later today, we'll see the names that make up president trump's short
8:09 am
8:10 am
president trump says you can't go wrong with his final four supreme court candidates. the president will announce his
8:11 am
nominee tonight. sources tell nbc news, contenders are sprkupreme court judges are amy coney barrett, brett kavanagh and john hardim n hardiman, hardiman and kethledge may be easier to confirm. the executive vice president of the federalist society, a conservative lawyer's group, he's currently on leave. he advices president trump on judicial ncandidates and he helped create the list for the president. good morning. >> good morning. >> when was the last time you talked to the president and has he made a decision? >> i spoke to him yesterday, he had not yet made a decision, indicated that he wanted to make a decision tonight, or last night or this morning. so that's what we're waiting for and i'm sure he' announce this evening of course and maybe there will be a bit of a heads up.
8:12 am
he's had these names for a while, you helped him craft them, he's talked about it during the campaign, what's he weighing now and why is anything still up in the air? >> well, he spent a pretty significant amount of time over the weekend asking questions, talking to people, thinking about this further. this is a really big decision for him. as you may remember, he spent a good part of his campaign talking about this issue, this was a big reason why people voted for him. he wants to get it right, like neil gorsuch. >> what does getting it right mean? this has been on his mind for a while, so what's still puzzling him? >> there are three things that he looks at. one is being extraordinarily well qualified and that's looking at the record. but also he wants someone who's going to be courageous, independent and fair. and a lot of that has to do with talking to people, who know these nominees, talking to people who have known them for years, getting a sense of how they have dealt with difficult
8:13 am
issues in their career. you really have to get to know somebody and that requires not only an interview, but thinking about what happened in that interview andal to lot people i profession and elsewhere. >> let's go through sma hardimap somewhat enamored with his biography, he's not from the ivy leagues, he paid for college by being a taxi driver. he was one of the runners up with neil gorsuch in the past. what are some of his strengths? >> first of all, he's been both an appeals judge and a trial judge for many years. he has many judicial decisions, he's demonstrated interpreting laws according to their text and their original meeting. he's very compelling as you mentioned, coming from a modest background and having worked his way through college, so i think he's someone who would appeal to many people in our country.vanaa
8:14 am
judge, worked for george w. bush, some have suggested that he has too long of a paper trail toe confirmed, your take on that? >> well, look, judge kavanagh's really one of the most distinguished jurists in the country, he's written over 300 opinions, he looks a lot like neil gorsuch in the sense that he cares before deeply about respecting and enforcing limits on government power. i think he's someone who, again, is very much like the gorsuch model, which the president's been focusing on. >> you helped him put the list together, who's your favorite? >> all the people the president is looking at are great. >> okay. >> it's very exciting. >> all right, thank you. enter leonard leo, thanks very much. cbs news will bring you a special report when president trump announces his nominee for the supreme court this evening. you can see it at 6:00 pacific time right here on cbs.
