gusting upwards of 90 miles an hour. beaufort is a s community. 13,000 people that live here. there are mandatory evacuations. i don't know who the heck would be out on the street right now. it's a ghost town and it's a dark town. power is out. i've got to tell you that this complex is vibrating throughout the night as the wind is rushing by the building. florence is battering the east coast.

>> reporter: david, thank you very much in beaufort. apologies you could not hear a lot of that as we're going to be dealing with technical issuese the rain really pick up here. let's check in with meghan glaros to get the latest on the track. meghan, this is still just moving so slowly, right? >> reporter: yeah, listen. we are in the eye wall jeff right now, which essentially means here in wilmington, we've been driving around. the rain is coming inside ways as you clearly know from standing out there. what we're dealing with is some of the worst that we're seeing here. the problem is, we expect it to continue. it's not over yet. if we look at this radar picture here, from a good chunk of the carolina coast line here, we are actually in the worst of it. you can see where the reds and

the oranges are located right now, that's what's called the eye wall. it's kind of moving the car around a little bit as you can see. right here where you actually see a little bit of blue, that's the center of so when that goes over our area, it will actually calm down for a little bit, but let it not lull you into a false sense of security because there's a back side to this eye wall as well and that will eventually come through too. at the moment we're getting hurricane force gusts, sustained winds well into the 60s and 70s. it's coming and going. it's hard to say what we're getting. we have trees down all over the street here. there are still some cars out and about, but see sensely what we're seeing is the worst of it. my concern is how long it's been raining and how long we expect it to continue raining. we have got hours of this left. in fact, the track is going to take it so slowly through north and south carolina that the potential for us to see these

kind of winds and rain for at least 24 to "48 hours", possibly 72 hours in terms of the rain is there. right now it's a category one storm. winds sustained to 90 miles an it's moving west at 6, 6 miles an hour, that's it. it's going to take forever for it to get through here. it is expected to make its way inland and picked up by the regular weather patterns and moved out as a rain maker for the northeast. at the moment we are concerned that at 2:00 a.m. saturday morning is still there. see where i'm pointing? that's still south /northarolin and that's almost 24 hours from now. expecting it to progress off to the west and not likely get to tropical storm status until sometime saturday afternoon. so what we're in right now is what we're going to find for a long chunk of time here and we do expect potentially to see these kind of conditions here. and then what you've got is you've got trees that are now on saturated ground. you have trees with shallow root

systems. we're not talking about a ton of palm trees that you would find in the caribbean and southern florida. we're talking about shallow rooted trees. essentially what that means is that's going to go down easily. the longer we have the winds and the longer we have the rains, the more likely that kind of activity is going to happen. the rain is a concern. fresh water flooding is a concern of ours as well. all of this rain is going to come down. even if it's raining farther west, it has to flush out down these rivers and empty into the atlantic. right now we have the storm surge, we have the heavy rain. eventually what we're going to find essentially is all of that water coming back down emptying back out into the atlantic. we have days left of weather just like this. >> reporter: meghan, thank you. we just lost power at our location. we jieoined 300,000 other north

caroli carolinans. those numbers are going to rise dramatically over the next couple of hours. we saw power flicker on and off throughout the night as the worst of florence comes in. by the way, the worst is here and we expect more of this for quite a while unfortunately when it comes to potential flooding risks. >> jeff, stay safe. we will come back to you later on this morning. it's important to reiterate to our viewers that though this is a slow moving storm, the winds are still extremely high, 90 mile per hour winds. one of the reasons we couldn't even hear david bagnos so clearly. so it's important for people to heed that warning. >> it changes so quickly. at the beginning of the live shot we could understand him. at the end we couldn't. it looks like a "saturday night live" skit but it's not. >> it's here to stay for hours

if not days ahead. for live updates on hurricane florence on the go download the cbs news app or visit cbsnews.com/florence. >> we'll have complete coverage of hurricane florence on cbs this morning starting at 7:00. for many of you this special expanded addition of the prod cast. coverage will continue throughout the day on your news on this cbs station and on our 24 hour streaming network. >> this has been a cbs news special report. cbs news new york. cbs news new york. for when the day turns into night, my hash browns turn into my $3 munchie mash-ups. crispy hash browns and tasty white cheese. mashed up with your choice savory egg and bacon, buffalo chicken and ranch, or jalapeños and bacon. try my $3 munchie mash-ups, back for a limited time. only at jack in the box.

between homes n.carolina beach, the roads are more suited for boats than cars. on cape hatteras sand dunes are like minor speed bumps, barely slowing down rising tides. with a mandatory evacuation, all these houses should be empty, but a local police chief estimated 25% of residents here will ride out the storm at home. when had you see the waves get this close, make you nervous? >> no. >> reporter: 71-year-old dick thomson, a lifelong resident here, is a hurricane holdout. >> we're going to have a surge problem. there's no way to avoid it. >> reporter: at high tide tonight, the churning surf behind me will give the holdouts a better sense of whether they made the right call by staying put. they know the worst of this storm is now a day away. >> the storm surge is going to be a factor for those along the coastline and the coastal inlet as well. look at the rainfall totals. we're talking about more than 30

inches of rain across a large chunk of south carolina, north carolina and even farther inland. across mountainous areas we'll get very heavy rains as well. that's a giant factor. also looking at the surge potential, that will impact a smaller number of people i think so the rain is a little more widespread event for everybody. now it's kind of an entity in and of itself meandering a little bit. the problem is may meander long enough that we vim packets of hurricane force for a long time, potentially here all the way through saturday. so it's not going to leave this area for quite some time. >> there you go, mr. howie. >> we've got bars on the side. >> reporter: this morning was go time at this fayetteville nursing home. bus after bus pulled up to evacuate some of the most vulnerable. >> mr. thornhill, we're going on vacation. >> reporter: 96-year-old world war ii army veteran roger thornhill was among several dozen being taken to higher ground. >> i've been through of them. this is the worst one yet. >> and our main concern at heritage place is this creek bed

here. >> reporter: single living's kevin carlin says the river that runs behind the building is the biggest worry. >> during matthew the water, if you can imagine, rose to almost the bottom of this bridge, so we're always on the overly cautious side. >> reporter: scenes like this one from hurricane harvey is the reason why. this facility wasn't evacuated. residents were left partially submerged in the murky floodwaters. many of the elderly are coming here to the cumberland village assisted living center. cherie redus is counting on this generator to keep the power going while the staff prepares for emotional need, especially for patients with dementia or alzheimer's. >> they start feeling insecure, they start wondering what's going on, so our job is to help them feel safe. >> reporter: now even though the residents have evacuated the staff will be carefully monitoring this creek for the next couple of days. jeff, state officials say more than 900 patients and residents living in coastal and eastern

counties here in the state have evacuated so far. >> president trump insists the federal government is ready for this storm, and he's blaming democrats for inflating the death toll from the last major hurricane maria. that storm devastated puerto rico, and the government report says it led to the deaths of nearly 3,000 americans. president trump disputes that number claiming it's a plot by democrats to make him look bad. weija jiang reports. >> reporter: 3,000 people did not die in the two hurricanes that hit puerto rico, president trump declared this morning on twitter, dismissing the official death toll of 2,975 victims. the president has defended his administration's response to hurricane maria which devastated puerto rico nearly a year ago. >> i think that puerto rico was an incredible unsung success. a lot of love in this room. >> reporter: president trump visited the island shortly after the storm hit.

today he said when he left they had anywhere from 6 to 18 deaths. he said the increase in fatalities was done by the democrats in order to make me look as bad as possible. puerto rico's democratic governor ricardo rosello says the official count was not political. >> we sanctioned an independent group to do a study to make it transparent. >> the death toll is based on the work of george washington university researchers who looked at how many people were expected to die in the six months following hurricane maria had the storm not occurred compared to actual fatalities. house speaker paul ryan. >> casualties don't make a person look bad. that's not -- so i have no reason to dispute these numbers. >> reporter: in a new statement just out tonight, the white house says every death from hurricane maria is a horror but says the study is just a statistical estimate and not a confirmed list of deaths. pope francis summoned american church leaders to the

vatican to discuss the priest sexual abuse scandal, and he accepted the resignation of one bishop who has been accused. seth doane reports. >> the u.s. bishop said pope francis listened deeply from the heart in their discussions today, but they offered few details and no next steps. cardinal daniel dinardo, the head of all u.s. bishops, pushed for this meeting and wants a vatican investigation into how disgraced former cardinal theodore mccarrick rose to the highest levels of the church despite allegations of sexual misconduct, but now dinardo himself is accused of allowing a predator priest to remain in his own archdiocese in texas. in a statement the archdiocese explained that one. cases against the accused priest was dropped years ago by the minor's family and a second case brought last month was taken seriously and reported to authorities. also today bishop michael bransfield of west virginia resigned amid accusations he sexually harassed adults.

this is the "cbs overnight news." >> "60 minutes" will debut its 51st season this sunday, but it will do so without longtime executive producer jeff fager who was fired wednesday after sending a threatening text to our own jericka duncan who was reporting on misconduct allegations against him. in a statement fager claims he just wanted the report to be fair, but he admits his texts used harsh language. he he here's a duncan. >> sunday night i reached out to comment for comment on the most

recent allegations. he denied them and sent me a warning. in a text message jeff fager wrote if you r accusations without any of your own reporting to back them up, you will be held responsible for harming me. he went on to say be careful. there are people who lost their jobs trying to harm me, and if you pass on these damaging claims without your own reporting to back them up, that will become a serious problem. >> this is the board of stories. >> reporter: fager who led "60 minutes" since 2004 indicated that message is why he was fired. in a statement he wrote my language was harsh, and despite the fact that journalists receive harsh demands for fairness all the time, cbs did not like it. one such note should not result in termination after 36 years. before that language was made public, cbs news president david rhodes addressed the staff at "60 minutes" in what one employee called an intense meeting. rhodes faced questions from journal i was who were said to be incredibly angry. correspondent steve kroft later

characterized fager's text message to me as threatening and inappropriate. he added the situation saddens me. >> i can't talk to you about it. >> reporter: as he left the meeting, rose wouldn't comment on whether the text message was the reason he fired fager. however in an e-mail to the news division he wrote the dismissal is not directly related to the allegations that surfaced in press reports. the "new yorker" has reported on claims that fager would touch employees in ways that would make them uncomfortable and am loud harassment in the division. fager has denied that. as previous chairman of cbs news, fager brought charlie rose back to the network in the late 1990s. >> jeff fager, my friend, my colleague, my boss. >> reporter: cbs fired rose last year over sexual harassment allegations. "60 minutes" marked its 50th year last season. >> our job is to seek out the truth and not everybody wants the truth out. >> reporter: fnly tse ecutive pe show's history. >> the fundamentals haven't

changed over all these year, and i really think that's a big part of success. >> reporter: the fundamentals of reporting including asking questions of those we cover and that's exactly what we were doing. fager, rose and former ceo leslie moonves have now all been forced out of cbs after allegations of misconduct. two outside law firms are conducting an ongoing investigation into those reports and into the overall culture here at cbs. >> norah o'donnell was invited into fbi headquarters to interview director christopher wray. it is his first extended sit-down with any news organization. nora began with the controversial op-ed that described the white house has in chaos. >> the president said that he wants the attorney general to investigation who wrote that anonymous "new york times" op-ed. do you believe as the president does that this is an issue of national security? >> well, first of course, i can tell you i didn't write it.

i didn't have anything to do with it. second, i would tell you that we're not really in the practice of confirming or discussing whether we're going to be conducting a particular investigation. i would tell you that we're going to make decisions about that kind of thing based on all the factors we normally do which is whether or not we have sufficient evidence of federal crime >> you said you did not write the "new york times" op-ed. >> right. >> i know that you have denied that. i want to ask you about the content. it described the president's leadership style as impetuous, adversarial, petty and ineffective. it says that the root of the president's problem is his, quote, amorality. does that sound like the president you know? >> i try very hard to make sure that my relationship with the president is a professional one, and beyond that i'm not going to really be weighing in on opinion, especially anonymously expressed opinions. i can tell you that there are lots of ways for people to express their views and their disagreements. for me the idea of doing it through an anonymous op-ed is

about the furthest thing from my mind. >> let me turn now to russia and its malign activities. when vladimir putin said that russia has never interfered and is not going to interfere in american affairs including the election process, was he lying? >> well, again, i'm not going to accuse somebody of lying. i'll just say that that doesn't jive with our read of the evidence, and we're pretty confident in our read. >> reporter: what is russia doing to disrupt the mid-terms that are now just about 60 days away? >> so what we're seeing now is a continuation of the -- of what we call the malign foreign influence efforts. what they do is sow both inaccurate information, disinformation, the kind of information warfare, and then propaganda, exaggerated half truths, distortions. >> reporter: why are we letting this happen? why are we letting russia do this? we have the greatest law enforcement agency in the world,

the fbi, the greatest tech companies. why are we allowing russia to do this? >> i don't see it as allowing them to did it. we're countering it. >> reporter: how are we countering it? how are we fighting back? >> in some cases we somewhere law enforcement investigations that lead to charges. in some cases we have steps that the technology companies can take themselves, and in some cases we're raising awareness because the best defense against disinformation and propaganda is accurate information. >> reporter: so come november, can americans be confident that it was a fair election? >> i think americans can have confidence in our election system. if i look at our counterintelligence mission overall, china is our top priority in that space. we've had cases involving everything from turbine technology in places like upstate new york to corn seed development in iowa. >> reporter: what do you mean corn seed? they are trying to steal our corn seed? >> well, of course, we have america's agriculture is the envy of the world, and we're very proud of it, and we should

be. and whenever we're the best at something, somebody else is chasing us. it's something that i think most americans don't understand. >> reporter: well, what are they trying to stealle? what do they want? >> they are trying to steal our trade secrets, our ideas, our innovation. >> reporter: the u.s. trade representative put a figure on the theft of intellectual property, and it's up to $600 billion annually? that's enormous. >> the thing that people need to understand is that this has an impact on everyday people. it has an impact on american businesses. it has an impact on american jobs. it has an impact on american consumers. >> reporter: how so? >> well, china's goal is to take what it can and become essentially self-sufficient and put american businesses out of business. >> reporter: well, to replace america as the world's economic superpower? >> i think that's their goal, and they are pretty open about it. >> reporter: it's not only these individuals who are engaged in spying, it's companies.

you've raised concerns about the chinese telecom giants. why are they natural security risks? >> well, any time you start talking about foreign companies that are bow holden to foreign governments that don't share our values and our dedication to the rule of law, it enables them to conduct economic espionage. it enables them to conduct different kinds of cyber attacks. it enables them to steal information in a variety of ways. >> reporter: the president intervened a few months ago to save zte from some of these crippling financial penalties that congress wanted. was the president wrong? >> i continue to be very concerned, and i think the intelligence community continues to be very concerned about the threat to our telecommunications infrastructure presented by some of the kinds of companies that our beholden to foreign governments that don't share our values, and the idea of letting

the fox in the hen house is something that i think people need to be really, really careful about before we find out that we're going to regret if. >> reporter: director wray, i know you have been asked this many times, but i do want to ask it of you because the president has issued repeated attacks on the fbi, on the innegative its work, on the people who work here at the fbi. in fact, he said that the reputation of the fbi is in tatters. those attacks have to have taken their toll. >> i'll tell you what i see. i see 37,000 men and women who get up every day trying to keep 325 million american people safe. i see people who work their tails off in that effort, who are people of character, of courage, of professionalism and diligence, and we do thousands and thousands of investigations every year. i think about the agents that i swear in at quantico several times a year who compete like

heck to be accepted into the ranks of the fbi. i could give you example after example. that's the fbi that i see. that's the real fbi, and that's what we're about. >> reporter: how would you describe your relationship with president trump? >> my focus is on having a very professional relationship with the president. i think that's what i've been trying to do since day one, and that's true today just as much as it was on day one. >> reporter: he tweets a lot about cabinet members and top members of his administration, but you specifically have never been the subject of one of his tweets. >> well, i'm not much of a twitter guy, as people will tell you, and that's not meant to criticize twitter. social media commentary has its place. i just find that i've got enough i just find that i've got enough

it only takes a second for an everyday item to become dangerous. i just find that i've got enough tide pods child-guard pac. helps keep your laundry pacs safe, and your child safer. to close, twist until it clicks. tide pods child-guard packaging.

an unmanned nasa satellite is on a collision course with an asteroid. the idea is to scrape off some of the asteroid and carry is back to earth. critics say that's easier said than done. >> reporter: nasa unveiled these new images of bennu, an asteroid and the focus of a $15 billion mission to collect samples from its surface. >> reporter: the sigh chris rex spacecraft was launched almost

two years ago and is now close enough to get a look at the asteroid. by december it will begin a delicate dance with bennu steering close enough to collect dust from the surface. at just the right moment it will make its break back for earth bringing with it its treasure trove of other worldly samples by 2023. >> it's chock full of amino acids, some of the building blocks of life. we think it's got a fair amount of water, and it's these kinds of objects that bombarded the earth after the earth was create that had we believe may have brought the material so necessary to have sparked life here on earth. >> reporter: nasa believes bennu contains carbon that dates back 4 billion years to the start of our solar system. the mission, if successful, will bring back the largest selection of space samples since the apollo moon rocks. >> going there and bringing back a sample, that's the only time we'll though for sure how this fits into our evolution.

>> this is another reason bennu has nasa's attention. it has a 1 in 2,700 chance of when you humble yourself under the mighty hand of god, in due time he will exalt you. hi, i'm joel osteen. i'm excited about being with you every week. i hope you'll tune in. you'll be inspired, you'll be encouraged. i'm looking forward to seeing you right here. you are fully loaded and completely equipped for the race that's been designed for you.

it took 60 years but a reverend and his wife finally got their honeymoon in the poconos thanks in large part to a bunch of fifth graders. steve hartman explains. >> reporter: at the mt. errey resort in the poconos of pennsylvania, reverend gilbert caldwell and his wife grace are arriving for their second honeymoon. >> we're here, we're here. >> reporter: they were greeted warmly. >> how are you. >> reporter: a sharp contrast to their first visit 60 years earlier. in 1957, they were married in north carolina, then drove eight hours only to be turned back for being black. how did they put it? did they give you a reason? >> first they pretended i didn't have a reservation, where i actually brought a copy and then

they said if we said yes our guests would be very unhappeny. >> they had to stay at a black-owned hunting lodge instead. >> men with big guns. >> reporter: not what you were planning on for your honeymoon? >> not what we were planning on. >> reporter: gill immersed himself in the civil rights movement working side by side with martin luther king jr. take he speaks about the movement which is how he ended up at bear titus elementary and told the honeymoon story as he had done for hundreds of years before but for this reason this group of fifth graders really took it to heart. >> at the end of the story i was like that was just terrible. >> it was heartbreaking. >> just because it's so wrong. >> i feel like that's the worst thing someone could do to someone. >> reporter: even months after the caldwells' visit, kids like emmy eshelman are still this affected. you feel bad for them? that they had to go through that? >> a ton. >> reporter: a ton? >> yeah.

>> reporter: which is why each fifth grader wrote a letter to mt. errey. one said the caldwells made me think about not only standingp for myself but standing up for others and fixing mistakes that were made in the world. in closing, the kids requested an you will expense paid honeymoon redo which they got. [ applause ] >> made me feel really good inside because we know even though we're just kids we made an impact on the world. >> it was really magnificent to know that kids cared that much. >> oh, the rug feels so nice. >> reporter: i should mention that the original mt. airy was torn down years ago. this is a new building with new owners who were so impressed with the kids they wanted to help make it right. >> is this worth waiting 60 years ago? >> reporter: obviously this does not make up for decade of racial injustice but it's a step and a sign that we can get there. steve hartman, on the road, in
