7:09 am
that begs the question when he really believes it in the first place. back in 2016 he said i think it's russia or a lot of people. he essentially held the position and continues to. and also the moral equivalence, suggesting that america and russia were equally to blame for state of relations. >> i've been following russian media and even they are confused by the president's reaction. >> i would expect the white house would think we're not talking about this three days after what that they not would be a progressive summit. in an interview last night, the president also questioned a centerpiece of nato policy. that the u.s. allies will respond on an attack from nerve. but talking on fox news, he

seemed to pull up back from that pledge. >> let's say montenegro during last year's attack, why should my son go to montenegro to defend against an attack? >> what you're saying, mon montenegro is a very small country with very strong people. vereop. and congratulations, you're you're in world war iii. i understand and that's the way it was set up. >> president tweeted at the nato meeting where he pushed other members to increase military spending was an acknowledged triumph, according to the president. jeff glor will interview him tonight on cbs evening nows and tomorrow here on "cbs this morning." a russian woman accused of being an agent for the kremlin returns to court today in washington. a grand jury indicted mariia

good morning to our viewers in the west. it's wednesday jewuly 18. france townsend looks as how the summit could have a negative impact on u.s. intelligence. and the pros and cons of using facial recognition technology while parents see what their children are doing at camp. but first, here's today's eye opener. trump insists that big results will come out of his summit december is spite the uproar over his news conference. >> president trump said he wanted to revise his comments
8:01 am
after realizing he made that one mistake. and world leaders are accepting president trump's stance with alienating the intelligence community and remembe members of his own party. the 12 thai soccer players talk about their experience for the first time. and the company believes it doesn't owe any of the victims a dime. torrential rains triggered flash floods and drivers yesterday. >> he lets it fly, and he hits it. oh, my goodness? >> and tiffany hayes drains the shot at half court to give the
8:02 am
team the win. i'm john dickerson with gayle king, nora is on assignment. president trump says this morning that his controversial summit with russian president vladimir putin produced real benefits. that follows an effort to amend an effort he made saying he didn't see why russia would interfere in the 2016 campaign. >> in a key sentence in my remarks, i said the word would instead of wouldn't. >> president trump says he accepts the intelligence committee's conclusion that russia carried out election related hacking. president trump tweeted about the summit saying many positive things will come out of that summit. >> president trump spoke with cbs reporter before the summit. >> your dni dan coats said that
8:03 am
america is at a critical infrastructure right now. in some ways it's like before 9/11 in that we're susceptible to a large scale attack, do you agree with that? >> i don't know, but i have a lot of respect for dan and that's what he does. >> as far as hacking, i think it was russia, but i think we also get hacked by other countries and other people. >> the president said yesterday his administration is doing everything in its power to prevent russia from interfering in this year's election. cbs news senior security analyst joins us. you've seen the president make his comments yesterday, what do you believe he thinks about
8:04 am
russian interference? >> he always makes these qualifying statements. there's two things i think about it. one, i think he equates collusion and the effect of meddling in the election. the intelligence community has been very clear with him. and after his fumble in helsinki, it's a fact that the russians interfered in the 2016 election and they continue meddling until today. and no one -- bob mueller hasn't opined yet about collusion. so these are separate things the president seems to conflate. >> let's take those two things apart. let's leave the past in the past. can coats in february said that america was under attack from the russians, and last week we said a version of the same thing, from the russians. that's what's happening today. and he if your director of
8:05 am
intelligence says we're under attack, wouldn't he have to look at it? >> he's been briefed about it in excruciating detail. dan coats is in there two hours a day talking to him. so i'm quite sure he's been briefed about it. it's not clear why he's hedging her. it's very clear that the russians interfered into the 2016 election. other countries do hack into the united states, but it's not the election. the president seems incapable of just stating the facts. >> he went into would and wouldn't, shouldn't somebody have said immediately let's correct this right away instead of waiting 26 hours to do so? >> i was in a white house and you often have to correct a statement, normally the staff
8:06 am
gets sent out, it's the old washington thing, john knows. what the president meant to say was his press secretary was with him. if it was a mere misstatement of would and wouldn't, sarah huckabee sanders would have done it right there. so it's just not credible. and by the way, if he really wanted to correct and fix his relationship with his intelligence community, you would have fixed it on foreign soil, where you insulted them, not waited 26 hours back in the white house. >> what about the morale in the intelligence communities. mike morrell was saying yesterday that some of these officials should consider stepping down. >> we have a president who's not prone to correcting himself publicly to go out 26 hours later. and you've got to assume there was some pretty tough talk inside the white house in advance of that correction, by intelligence chiefs who may well
8:07 am
have threatened to resign. the president's first interview since returning from helsinki will be tonight. they'll meet later today at the white house for part two of jeff's interview that started overseas over the weekend. ahead, we'll take you back to thailand for the very latest on the soccer players' news conference, we're learning new details about their

♪ the 12 soccer tand thislepublicly for trapped in a the hospital a day early. doctors say they're in good health. anna warner was at that news conference in thailand. >> reporter: this was a huge day for these boys and actually for the country of thailand who watched this news conference live on radio and tv across the country. the boys came out to talk about their experiences in the cave, year hopes for the future. it was a somber moment when they remembered the thai navy s.e.a.l. who died trying to
8:11 am
rescue them. they said they felt very guilty about that and very sad about what happened to him. they brought out a portrait of the s.e.a.l. that they had all signed and they hoped the portrait would go to the family. when they first came out in this news conference 1r, people chee. they were batting the soccer balls around in front of stage. and today we learned that all of the boys actually can swim. it was said during the rescue that they couldn't swim. but they said it was never true and they take part in swimming activities. one of the boys recalled the moment they saw the first rescue divers. he said his heart was filled with hope. now you may remember their rescue was completed eight days ago, the divers took each boy one at a time wearing oxygen masks on stretchers through
8:12 am
twisting tunnels in the rock. they had been trapped by the high floodwaters june 23 while exploring the cave after practice. now they called this a news conference, but there was a man who was actually a thai television presenter who did q & a on stage. he actually asked them about their experiences, it was a little bit more like watching a talk show with all of the boys. they prescreened a lot of the questions that came in from the media. they didn't want anyone to ask the boys questions that would hurt them. so they took out some of the questions they might not want to ask here. but it was fascinating in detail about what happened to them in the cave and everybody in thailand hoping they move on and have good lives. >> you want to hear every single detail of this story. >> as the boys head home, they still face physical and psych lodge copsych -- psychological challenges.
8:13 am
they have each gained six pounds each, they look really healthy. >> they lost about nine, so they gained almost all of it back. and on their faces, they looked like typical 11-year-old kids. the tale of the rescue was remarkable, just to hear the story, there was a rope that said if i shake this rope twice, it means i'm able to get out. they were looking for water, it turned out that there was water dripping down the side of the cave and they were able to drink this, they had no food. the question was do you go forwar backwards instead of forwards, to see if there was another exit to the cave. i am concern about what happens when the camera lights go out, right now their adrenaline is
8:14 am
flowing, but weeks and months or even longer than that, or even later, when they're quiet, when the press is around, when they're not getting as much attention,nx so,ik ptsd. there's more of a problem if you're depressed when you go into this. but think of all the things, being in the dark, being cold, it was very scary for them when it got dark and there was no ability to see anything. >> we were concerned that they wouldn't be able to swim as they started their descent. that is good news that they cleared that up for us. but from a psychological stand point, does their age benefit them? because they were so young, we think back to the chilean miners who were much older and a lot of them did go through some psychological problems. >> being young is good, because you're more resilient, you're physically stronger.
8:15 am
but when they get home, they may be a little bit more clingy, they may be afraid of the dark, they may have anxiety could something like this happen again, they may have anxiety when they're swimming and they feel the water, could trigger something. i love the fact that hay had a psychiatrist, a psychologist, they said there's a support system. i do worry about the whole issue, this suman kunan is a retired navy s.e.a.l. and they did mention they feel guilty about that and i do worry when the lights are out and they're calmer that they may start feeling more guilt about that. at a time when the world can't agree about anything, but the entire world came together for

8:34 am
so it makes sense that heart attacks are happening more in our pregnant women, as well. >> what do you mean by with pre between the year 2002 and 2014. 25% increase is significant. >> what do you attribute it to? >> first of all, pregnancy is a big risk on the heart. so a pregnant woman is significantly more likely to have a heart attack than nonpregnant women because you have a bigger blood volume. you gain weight. your heart rate increases. your blood pressure increases. and right at the time of delivery, you have to prevent bleeding. so your body clamps down and you become more likely to form blood clots, all predispose you to heart attacks. but i think what's happening in our young women is the risk factors for heart disease are increasing in this country. high blood pressure, high cold front ral, diabetes with all higher in our young women and stress probably play aes factor, as well. >> what can women do who are pregnant? >> i'd like all women to know heart disease is the number one cause of death for women and it's a very preventable disease.

8:37 am
>> the technology used at rolling river is called waldo photos. the software uses an algorithm and a family-provided selfie of a camper. it scans photographs taken at the camp that are uploaded to waldo. the software then matches those images to the selfie and sends the camp's pictures and text messages to parents. >> if not for this, what would you use? >> i would scan through hundreds of pictures until i found him. >> did you have any hesitation about participating in what is facial recognition technology? >> i didn't, no. i know some people have a lot of concerns about privacy. but, you know, i already had had given the permission to the camp to take his picture and to put it on facebook and instagram, so to me, it didn't seem that many steps removed to let waldo have the facial recognition. >> most people's perception when they hear facial recognition is they think, oh, my gosh, this company has run facial recognition on me or one of my family members. now they have this stored

we felt we had never seen the city represents in a way we know it to be. we were trying to tell an oakland story. when you do that, there are a lot of other issues. >> it started with a police shooting. >> it does. conceiving the product was around 2009 after oscar grant was injured. the discussion at that time was around police shootings and oscar's nation was on on everything incident. almost no one is affected by the tragedy except colin because he happens to be there to witness it. >> i want to get back to oakland. there's this device you use about probation. >> mm-hmm. >> there's a way in which the viewer -- i i may have this
8:46 am
totally wrong. you feel the tension. were you trying to replicate the tension of what it's like to be a young black man walking on the streets with cops look after you? >> there's a moment in the film where almost everyone sits in his shoes. it's a cultural difference that not everybody gets to feel, but when we're all in the theater, we get to feel it. that clock is a technique to give a countdown, but it's also real if you know anybody on probation. that's a trap. there are a southeast of traps because they make money off you. >> and race. there's a lot of friction in your relationship. >> yeah. well, you know, miles and colin grew up together. they happen to have almost the same contacts. one may be white, one may be black. their context is changing and
8:47 am
they're in different kinds of things that they built themselves. >> what's so amazing about the probation idea is if you put a foot wrong, you go back to jail. but when that stopsing it's still there. >> yeah, yeah. yes. there are traps everywhere for a lot of dichbltd kinds of people and one of the biggest traps in the film is poverty. none of them necessarily have the means to move or leave the situation, but they're having their feet go out from under them. this are fewer and fewer things to do in the city that they can participate in. >> the reviews have many times we have filmmakers here and say who do you want this movie to be directed wards? >> oh, yeah.
8:48 am
>> to read the widest audience possible. that must be so gratifying. >> it is. it's our first film and i think we get a lot of credit for breaking convention. but i think a lot of that is because we didn't know any of the conventions. >> that you were breaking. >> yeah. but it's -- it's a dream come true that it's actually coming out and i want more than anything for as many people as possible to see it. >> and the title "blindspotting" is genius and the way you explain that in the movie. >> yeah. it's a slang term. we pride ourselves in creating slang in the bay area. it's a very oakland thing to do and all slang is derivative. val, who plays collin's girlfriend is studying psychology. and she creates slang terms as a way of memorizing psyche terms. blindspotting is what she comes up to remember this phenomenon of rubin's face but it's either a face or two vases and all of your life experiences are going
