7:05 am
that is his primary source as he begins working on a book. but in the course of those interviews, he also gets these people to turn over diaries and notes they kept during their time in office so he is working from a wealth of material and we should point out that after some of the white house denunes yagss of the book yesterday, bob woodward said he stands by his reporting. >> david, there's always back biting and palace intrigue in any white house. this account of this white house is extraordinarily different because it paints the president as incompetent in many ways. specifically, the accounts, there's a lot by the defense secretary mattis. he does not do many interviews since you cover the pentagon. in one particular exchange you hit on the president questions why we have troops on the korean peninsula to which the defense secretary said, we are trying to prevent world war iii.
7:06 am
do you believe that the defense secretary spoke with bob woodward on deep background? >> reporter: no. in fact, i know he didn't speak with bob woodward on any ground rules. but mattis comes across here as sort of the trump whisperer in this administration. the one official who somehow knows how to handle trump. and he does that by essentially agreeing with whatever the president says. you have a good point, mr. president. your instincts are correct. but let's try and do it this way. and the bottom line is u.s. has not withdrawn from any my tail alliances and the u.s. has not engaged in any reckless military operations overseas. >> all right. david, great to have you this morning. thank you so much. and only on cbs you can watch david's full interview with bob woodward this sunday on

7:08 am
pressley put it recently, it is not good enough for democrats in power. it matters who those democrats are. pressley is one of a handful of mostly female minority liberals winning races across the country. connecticut, for example, has probably going to elect the first black female congresswoman in november. stacy abrams running for governor. gillum won a primary in florida and pressley running unopposing but others may struggle. >> ed, thanks. the remnant of tropical storm gordon are hitting the southeast with heavy rain and flooding. national hurricane center said this morning gordon weakened to a tropical depression. it is now blamed for at least one death. gordon made landfall in dauphin island, louisiana, last night. a child was killed in pensacola, florida, after the limb of an oak tree crashed down on a

7:10 am
impassable. flooding remains the biggest threat for millions of americans as the storm moves inland. up to a foot of rain is expected in some areas and that could produce flash flooding. for some, the damage is done. this boat nearly collapsed due to violent wind gusts. and here in pensacola, a young child was killed when a large limb from an oak tree fell on this mobile home. crews there worked through the night and after a few hours were able to recover the body. the storm will weaken to a tropical depression but that does not mean that the threat of damage or flooding is over. in fact, as the system moves north, the threat of isolated tornadoes will remain. >> manny, thank you. nike's defending the controversial new ad campaign after backlash from president trump and other critics. in an interview, the president sard nike is sending a terrible message by partnering with unsigned nfl quarterback colin kaepernick. but he added their freedom to do

"cbs this morning"g" saturday co-host joins us at the table. dana, good morning. >> good morning. this is not going away and the season hasn't even started yet. a nfl executive, at least one, expressed support of kaepernick saying in part the social justice issues that colin and other professional athletes have raised deserve our attention and action. but nike's decision is also fanning the flames on social media. nike's controversial endorsement of colin kaepernick is reigniting the debate over nfl players taking a knee in the national anthem. some critics are destroying the nike branded gear. other praise the iconic company. super bowl champion chris long. >> kids looking at that and saying, if i take a risk like colin and speak my mind and tell

7:13 am
that some of the key consumers they're trying to win over, younger people, that buy a lot of nike gear, are siding with colin kaepernick. >> reporter: nike lost about $3.75 billion in market cap at the end of trading on tuesday. important to point out, some analysts also attributed that to negotiations over nafta. despite the loss, one estimate reportedly says nike earned at least $43 million worth of media exposure following the kaepernick ad. you can't pay for this. >> yeah. >> important point about courting younger, younger people out there. >> yes. >> looking fard them. >> they know the audience. >> exactly. >> calculated risk. >> thank you, dana. a woman arrested for traffic violations found dead in the nevada jail cell three days later. why her family said guards ignored the pleas for help and the treatment of her amounts to
