during the d-day invasion. that number 9,380 is only a third of the americans lost in the battle of normandy. their headstones are all facing home towards the u.s. on the way home we got a sense of enthusiasm here in normandy. drove back vehicles, many flying american and french flags. this is a community who always embraced and honored those who sacrificed for their freedom. more than 150,000 troops landed on the beaches of normandy that started the campaign to liberate nazi-occupied europe. it was delayed 24 hours befittingly scattered showers expected today as well. and tomorrow will be one of the last opportunities to honor those who fought in world war ii with veteran still alive. of the more than 16 million americans who served, fewer than half a million are still with

the past two days of president trump's uk state visit have been filled with royal pageantry, protests, and politics. but on the eve of the 75th anniversary of d-day, president trump continues to try to clear up any insults he may have made about his royal hosts during a british television interview. >> do you think meghan markle is nasty or not? >> no, the question was asked to me and i didn't know she said anything bad about me. that's okay. join the crowd. >> the president isser fromming to his description of the duchess of sussex after he was told markle called him miss son nis tick if he got elected. >> she said she would move to canada. >> a lot of people are moving here. i didn't say she was nasty.

i said she was nasty about me. >> the president was asked if he could have served in the vietnam war, a draft he would have served if it were not for bone spurs. >> i would have been hoared but i think i'm making up for that now rapidly because we're rebuilding our military at a level never seen before. >> the president was also pressed on his decision to ban transgender people from serving in the military, blaming it on the cost of medication. >> they take massive amounts of drugs, they have to. and also, you're not allowed -- in the military, you're not allowed to take any drugs. >> the cost of the administration is minuscule compared to the overall budget. the u.s. military spends a lot more money, for example, on giving viagra to service men and women. >> i didn't know that. >> that answer directly contradicts what the department of defense said back in 2017 when equipment it first announced transgender people could serve openly in the military. at the time it cited a study

th which found little or no impact, cohesionness, opportunity or effectiveness and the cost of gender-related health care were relatively low. >> we will have full coverage of tomorrow's ceremony in normandy, recognizing the 75th anniversary of d-day. our coverage begins at 2:00 p.m. pacific time here on cbs. and our next hour i will sit down with three veterans of invasion of normandy, the youngest of whom is 96. they're amazing guys. see you soon. >> can't wait, anthony. we will see you later on today. tooks a lot. office. many republicans oppose his plan to put tariffs on all mexican goods. they would start next week at 5% and go up from there unless mexico does more to prevent illegal border crossings. republicans indicate they could vote to tie the president's

hands, but he dismisses that idea. >> i don't think they will do that. i think if they do, it's foolish. there's nothing more important than borders. >> nancy cordes is on capitol hill with more on this story. good morning to you, nancy. why do you think the republicans are rebelling against the president on this? >> reporter: well, because free trade, gayle, is a long time core republican principle. they say you hike tariffs on mexico by as much as 25%, which is what the president is threatening right now, and you simply end up charging american consumers more for mexican goods. senate republicans gave white house officials an earful at a lunch meeting yesterday, urging them to reconsider or risk a resolution of disapproval. here's senate leader mitch mcconnell. >> there is not much support in my conference for tariffs. that's for shoe. >> will you try to block those tariffs? >> what i'm telling you is we're hoping that doesn't happen.

>> reporter: the united states imported about $350 billion worth of goods from mexico last year alone. tariffsi tariffs could not only raise those prices but threaten the nearly 5 million u.s. jobs that depend on trade with mexico. mexico's foreign minister is going to be sitting down today with the secretary of state and the vice president. he says he thinks this can all be worked out. but so far, dana, we haven't seen much indication from the president he's willing to bend on this. >> nancy, thank you very much. the mysterious death of a former state senator is shaking arkansas's political world. linda collins-smith was reportedly found dead of an apparent gunshot wound outside her home in pocahontas, arkansas. the lieutenant governor tweeted, quote, i'm in shock over the news, heartbroken for her family and friends. state police say the republican's death is being investigated as a homicide. we're learning that a third american has mysteriously died at a hotel in the dominican

republic. a pennsylvania woman was reported dead last month. that's five days before a maryland couple died, apparently under similar circumstances. ctm lead national correspondent david begnaud is here with more. this is very disturbing. the more you hear, the worse it sounds. do you think the deaths are connected? >> we don't know for sure, gayle, but it's interesting that both the state department and the fbi are looking into it. that's very telling. so you had the pennsylvania woman's family that say she died from the same lung condition as the maryland couple, but we don't yet know how they died. 41-year-old miranda warner was found dead. she was celebrating her ninth wedding anniversary with her husband.

time. there were no signs of violence. relatives say all three americans were healthy at the time they died. we should tell you reason, but people can find it. >> grand principe. >> oh, we are. thank you very much, david. many families of the 17 people killed in the parkland, florida, school massacre are applauding the arrest of former deputy scott peterson, who's accused of failing to keep students safe. manuel bojorquez is outside marjory stoneman douglas high school. manuel, what does the lawyer say? >> reporter: his attorney calls the charges politically motivated and says they should be dismissed immediately. peterson was the only armed school resource officer here on campus on the day of the shooting when parents say he should have taken action instead of taking cover. >> it's a step towards more

accountability for letting my daughter get murdered. >> reporter: after more than a year demanding scott peterson be held accountable following one of the nation's worst school shootings, loved ones of the 17 students and staff killed at marjory stoneman douglas high school expressed some relief on tuesday. >> it's absolutely a nightmare, and this is the only thing we wanted for. it's what we've been fighting for. >> reporter: fred guttenburg, whose daughter jamie died, tweeted after the arrest, rot in hell, you could have saved some of the 17. >> it's very painful for me to know that he had a gun, was supposed to act. he had a duty to act. that was his job. >> reporter: peterson was charged following a 15-month investigation. the 56-year-old faces 11 criminal count, including child neglect, culpable negligence. surveillance video shows he never confronted the gunman.

instead, a commission report says he hid for about 48 minutes after the first shots. peterson could be heard radioing for backup during the rampage. >> get some units over here. >> there is a difference between cowardice and criminal activity. i think what you found here are examples of both. >> reporter: in an interview a year ago, peterson said he's not solely responsible. >> i never had a chance. i never thought even for a moment of being scared or a coward because i was just doing things the whole time. >> reporter: peterson's attorney does not believe his client can be prosecuted on child neglect charges because he was not, quote, a caregiver of the students. peterson was booked in jail with bail set at $102,000. he is in the same jail, actually, as the confessed shooter. dana? >> all right. just a bizarre coincidence there with that. thank you. flood warnings will remain in place across parts of the

central u.s. into next week and new storms are threatening more than a half dozen states. where are we going to see the biggest threat here with this weather? >> you're dealing with flash flooding along the gulf coast. you have river flooding inland from that. and it's all because of the same culprit. we have this tropical system in the gulf of mexico putting down a lot of moisture. today you're looking at places like corpus christi to houston. this is where you're going to see the biggest rain. it's where you see the biggest rain throughout your daytime hours today. we're talking 4 to 6 inches of rain. even some local areas could see 10 inches of rain. then it pushes to the east. by tonight, it's into western louisiana with 3 to 6 inches of rain. by tomorrow, it's into the new orleans area, 2 to 4 inches of rain. even into the panhandle by friday. but it's not just right along the coast. you've got to take a look at the radar signature here. yes, heaviest activity along the coast, but that swath of moisture goes way inland. here's the problem. consider where the mississippi river is. you've got mountains to the wers

-- west of it, mountains to the east. any rain drop that falls, flows down those mountains and into the river. they're already at major flood stages. the mississippi river having a problem as well. every single drop of rain now seeks the lowest point. what's the lowest point? the gulf of mexico. everything coming down the mississippi. some of these rivers will not get below flood stage for maybe a month or so. >> wow. that's a long time. thank you very much. a 74-year-old woman is recovering this morning after a dramatic rescue in the arizona mountains. take a look at this. video captures a gurney spinning uncontrollably in midair while the woman was being lifted into a helicopter. the phoenix fire department says the woman was hiking when she fell yesterday, suffering injuries to her head and face. well, the rescue appears to be a cause for concern. fire officials assure us the woman was secured safely in the gurney. look at that. >> she had a little bit of dizziness and nausea that they were able to give medications

for. reports from the hospital are that she's stable and suffered no effects from the spin. >> officials say this type of spinning is a rare occurrence during a helicopter rescue, but crews are trained to handle it. a little bit of nausea indeed. >> i would have had a lot a bit. >> i would like to know his definition of a little bit of dizziness. but she's okay. that's the most important thing. ahead, payback for thousands of college students given illegal high-interest loans. how the cbs series "whistleblower" helped t good wednesday morning to you. the heat is on once again. highs soaring especially inland into the low- to mid-90s with plenty of sunshine for the bay. low to mid 70s and for the coast in the mid-60s and breezy. so about a 32-degree temperature spread from the coast to inland. so here is the seven-day forecast. much cooler for tomorrow with onshore flow kicking in. cooler still for friday with heating back up sunday into

"cbs this morning" saturday

co-host michelle miller has covered the central park five for years and joins us with this latest turn of events. michelle, good morning to you. >> good morning. many are hearing about this case for the first time because of the series "when they see us." linda fairstein is a role played by felicity huffman, a role she played before admitting to her participation in the college admissions scandal. she's seen as a single-minded prosecutor convinced of the young men's guilt. >> they brutally raped a woman and discarded her like a piece of garbage. >> reporter: "when they see us" revisited the central park five, a case that drew headlines in 1989. it focuses not only on the black and latino teens who were accused of attacking and raping a female investment banker but also on the woman who helped successfully convict them. >> these kids were on a rampage. >> the accused later said they were coerced into confessing. >> these young men were the proxies for all kinds of other agendas. >> reporter: sarah burns produced and directed a 2012

documentary about the case. >> i think a lot of people now with the new series are coming to this story and learning about what happened, and it makes people upset. >> i didn't see a lady or hit anyone. >> raymond saw you hit her! >> who's raymond? >> reporter: the city of new york reached a $41 million settlement with the five in 2014, years after another man confessed, linked to the crime by dna evidence. since the netflix series debut last friday, the backlash against fairstein, now an author, has exploded. the hashtag cancel linda fairstein trended on twitter. and more than 75,000 people signed an online petition calling for a boycott of her children's books and mystery novels. >> raymond santana left jail a free man. >> reporter: we interviewed raymond santana, one of the central park five after his exoneration. >> what do you say to the people

out there who just don't believe you're innocent? >> these people have their mind fixated on us being guilty. we have tried everything we possibly could to prove our innocence. >> reporter: santana now tells tmz that fairstein deserves the scrutiny she's now getting. >> even though it's 30 years later, she has to pay for her crime. >> reporter: in the wake of the mini series release, fairstein has resigned from vassar college's board of trustees, as well as the victim service agency safe horizon. in a letter to the agency's chairman, she says the show depicts me in a fictionalized version of events in a grossly and maliciously inaccurate manner. >> i think in part why this is directed more at linda is she has remained steadfast in her belief in the guilt of central park five. >> in a statement to "cbs this morning," fairstein's lawyer said the series director ignored

the vast majority of readily publicly available material about the case, all in the name of fabricated sensationalism. they declined request for comment. >> ava was here at the table before the series came out. it was very clear about all the research she had done, all the interviews she personally conducted herself. when you talk to the central park five and you hear their story, their story -- and i asked them individually, does this film represent what happened to you? they said it's eerie how dead on and how right they said ava got this piece. >> and if you're wondering what fairstein thinks about the case, she talked to "the new yorker" back in 2002 about the investigation. she said things like, a kid would say something like a dark-skinned guy is who lived on 102nd street and these detectives would go out and find them. i think it was one of the most brilliant police investigations i've ever seen. >> which is exactly how it's

depicted in that netflix documentary. they were exonerated. you look for an apology at the least. or own your decision. >> she says she has nothing to apologize for. that's the problem. >> this is really a lesson. it's a lesson about the power of justice in the hands of those who have it. the police, the prosecutors, the public defenders, and the judges. >> she called it brilliant twice in that interview. we'll have more on this. >> and we'd like to talk to linda. we've invited her. facial recognition technology is spreading around the world. ahead, carter evans shows us how one trucking company is using it to find distracted drivers. plus, vladimir duthiers is in our green room with what to watch, including a cookie responsible for a lottery jackpot. bring the cookies, please. you're watching "cbs this morning." you're watching "cbs this morning." turns out i was just sensitive to a protein commonly found in milk. now, with a2 milk®... ...i can finally enjoy cereal again.

and sudden kidney problems. ketoacidosis is a serious side effect that may be fatal. a rare, but life-threatening, bacterial infection in the skin of the perineum could occur. stop taking jardiance and call your doctor right away if you have symptoms of this bacterial infection, ketoacidosis, or an allergic reaction. do not take jardiance if you are on dialysis or have severe kidney problems. taking jardiance with a sulfonylurea or insulin may cause low blood sugar. so, what do you think? now i feel i can do more to go beyond lowering a1c. ask your doctor about jardiance today. i'm workin♪ to make each day a little sweeter. to give every idea the perfect soundtrack. ♪ to make each journey more elegant. at adp we're designing a better way to work, so you can achieve what you're working for.

♪ for the first time in the u.s., some schools could start using facial recognition for security. it's one of the many areas of society relying on the technology, and that's raising new privacy and civil rights concerns. carter evans met with industry

experts to see how this type of technology works and why there's pushback. >> all it has to see is part of my face. >> correct, just your profile. >> reporter: many of us still see facial recognition technology as part of the future. for sean moore, the future is now. >> it identified me the second i walked in the room. >> it did, yes. that's the power of the technology. >> reporter: we visited his l.a.-based company, true face, where he showed us their capabilities with a photo of me found online. >> what exactly is the camera looking at? >> it's looking at those facial features and basically the mathematical representation of your face. >> reporter: an algorithm is trained to recognize the person in the photo and look for someone who could be a match. >> what are some of the things you see this being used for? >> things like mobile banking, access control is another very, very big market for us where you're entering a building using your face. >> reporter: and the company is now moving beyond the face, developing algorithms to detect body movement. >> you look at the dimensions on your eyes.

if you look distracted down to the left. >> this is where the concern comes in with your office. you don't want them necessarily using this to know where you're looking every second. >> this was not intended for use in an office to monitor employees and where they're looking around. >> but someone might see this and go, hmm. >> fortunately for us, we get to choose our clients. we work very intimately with them and understand their use case and make sure it falls within our obligation to society. >> reporter: in dchina, the government is putting facial recognition to use with plans to install 400 million cameras within the next three years, tracking everyone from jaywalkers to ethnic minorities they see as a separatist threat. >> in the u.s., it's largely unregulated. >> reporter: but some computer science experts are concerned how companies might use the technology. >> is this person packing the boxes too slowly compared to her or his co-workers?

here's a camera that's doing it constantly and turning up the pressure, turning up the heat with no discretion. >> reporter: at richie trucking in fresno, drivers are tracked by face-reading cameras. >> there's two infrared beams that sit here. >> so it's looking for the driver's eyes. >> reporter: if a driver is distracted or begins to close their eyes, an alarm sounds and the seat vibrates. >> really, as soon as your eyes start to close. >> as soon as it detects that, it's enough of a close. it really gets going. >> reporter: the system also sends a video clip of the incident back to headquarters. the company argues the technology could save lives. this former employee was let go because cameras captured him using a cell phone while driving, which is illegal in the state of california. >> we don't fire them on the spot. you know, we try to figure out, you know, why do you think this happened. >> so human involvement is key. >> correct. because it's not just a black and white deal. maybe they were up with a sick

morrow and his team of correspondents because everyone had such a vested interest in the war and everyone had a loved one who was fighting in the war. >> reporter: cbs news veteran edward r. murrah, who broadcast from a rooftop in london during german bombings, on d-day would read the words of encouragement from commander general dwight d. eisenhower. >> we will accept nothing less than full victory. good luck. >> reporter: cbs news radio was on front lines of the allied invasion that day and inside the living room of the american public. >> this is charles collingwood. we're on the beach today on d-day. we caught a ride in a small boat loaded with a thousand pounds of tnt, half a ton of explosives on this beach which still under

kribl heavy enemy gun fire. >> reporter: cbs news correspondent charles collingwood was embedded with allied troops along a 50-mile stretch of french coastline. >> these boys are apparently having a pretty tough time here on the beaches. it's not very pleasant. it's exposed, and it must have been a rugged fight. this place even smells like an invasion. i as a curious odor, which we always associate with modern war. it's small of oil and explosives and burning things. >> everything they did was new. the american people received updates on the war live every night. that was the first time in history that the american people had been able to receive that time of mediasy from credible journalists who they could trust. >> then as we turned in over the coast -- >> reporter: cbs news

correspondent richard hottelet was own of those voices. >> the bombs and the shells burst together on the target. >> reporter: he was aboard an american bomber, witnessed the first wave of allied forces invading normandy and the germans trying to hold the line. >> 4,500 feet up, our plane was rocked by the concussion. we dropped the bombs on schedule. we saw done below dozens of scores of white streaks as the assault boats raced over to the blue water to the beach, white wakes stretched out behind them. >> reporter: it took more than two months for the allies to break out of normandy following d-day, liberating paris and securing victory over germany by the spring of 1945.

but d-day came at a tremendous cost. 10,000 men were killed, wounded or missing in action, including more than 6600 americans, many of whom are buried in the cemetery behind me. gayle. >> that's the other side of war, certainly. >> anthony, one of the men you talked to who, his prayer was, i know someone has to die, i hope if it's me, but if it isn't me please let me go and not be maimed when i go back home. and what it means to you, too. because you were there for the 50th anniversary, too, in normandy. >> every time you come back here it's just as breathtaking as the first. the scale of what happened here is just so mind-boggling. almost incomprehensible. what the soldiers went through on that day i find it almost unimaginable. >> thank you, anthony. i think the journalists, too, who were telling the story. the picture they painted it

makes me proud of the work that cbs news radio did. >> you have to have help me visualize. >> so simple and direct with chaos all around them. fantastic work. writer wajahat ali makes his case for having kids in his t.e.d. talk. >> i'm an exhausted dad, currently own and dominated by two dictators who rule my life with an iron fist while wearing their huggies diaper and he's in our toyota green room with why he belie right now, earn 60,000 bonus miles

the decision to start a family is of course an intensely personal one, but if you ever considered how having kids achkts your friends, your community, even the country or the world, this morning we're looking at the declining birthrate here in america. the cdc says the rate is at its lowest level in 32 years. we're focused on that for our partnership with ted to highlight individuals and ideas shaping our world in our series "ideas that matter." "new york times" contributing op-ed writer wajahat ali made

his case for having kids in his ted talk that has been viewed more than a million times. >> we need to invest in babies in developed countries if we want to help save our economy and pensions. but that's not the reason you have babies. that's not the main reason. babies have always represented humanity's best, boldest, most beautiful, infinite possibilities. and if we in developed countries, as a whole, opt o ou future generations, then what the hell's the point? >> and waj joins us here at the table. so not having kids. well -- >> tony has a new baby. >> very biased today. >> if i move out of the light, you can see the bags. i always say having kids can ruin your body more than night life ever could. but you're making the case for having kids. >> i'm going to make mothers very happy today. >> let's do it. what do you got? >> first of all, having babies is a deeply personal choice. there are many who want to but can't. we have to acknowledge that. and we have to acknowledge the reasons not to have kids.

global warming, carbon footprint, overpopulation. but in developed countries, some of the world's largest economies, japan, the united states, china, people are not having enough kids. the global fertility rate has been halved in the past 50 years. in china, it's a crisis. they're literally begging people to have children. >> but is it any surprise? when you have kids, you lose sleep, lose money, lose the ability to live your life as freely as you may want to. >> gayle said it, it's expensive. in the united states, we have hit our historic lowest birthrate last year. when you do the research, why aren't people having kids in the united states of america? they can't afford it. >> do you have any numbers? >> here's the numbers. the united states is the most expensive country in the world to have a kid if you don't have insurance. if everything goes perfectly, it will cost you $32,000 to have a kid. the united states is the only industrialized country in the world that does not offer paid parental leave. so congratulations. you have a kid and then your

employer says get back to work. now you have childcare. it costs me $40,000 a year for childcare. so imagine young people with student debt, millennials who actually don't have as much as the previous generation. now you're saying have kids, raise the birthrate. who's taking care of me? that's why i said in the ted talk, in order to inforvest in future, we have to invest in the present and help people who choose to have babies. >> and you say there are other countries doing it better, that have this down. >> sweden and france, for example. in europe, the birthrate is declining, but sweden and france, ironically, offering pronatal policies, subsidized day care, helping women stay in the work force, affordable health care. the birthrate went up. so in the united states, maybe we should help people who want to have kids, help young people, help women stay in the work force. crazy idea, affordable childcare. >> in the middle of your ted talk, the thing that stopped everybody cold is that you're preparing -- you're in the middle of the ted talk on

monday. what happens? >> my wife calls me and says -- she calls me from d.c. crying. she's a strong woman. she said i took my baby girl to the hospital. i found bumps. i said what happened? they found bumps all over her live r liver. my wife is a doctor. she said most likely this is going to be cancer. i said, should i come back? the universe just sucker punches you in the gut. she said stay, let's find out. thursday was my talk. they said just stay there, crush the talk for our little girl. three hours before my talk, the official diagnosis came out. stage four liver cancer. >> wow. >> three hours before the talk. >> yeah, so i integrated in the talk and did it for my daughter. we named her after a warrior princess. >> and she's just that. >> she came home yesterday. she did her fifth chemo. >> you did this talk last month. this is all very fresh. >> all very fresh. as a parent, you make -- as soon as you hear something like that,

you make this negotiation with god or the universe. trade my life. but the world doesn't work that way. so you have to fight for your kids you have to fight for your daughter. >> with that kind of heart ache in having kids, you still recommend it. >> it's the best thing we've ever done. i said that in the ted talk. my wife and i talked about it. we don't regret it for a second. >> your closing line in ted talk, we'll get it a little later on. we'll take a break. we'll be right back.
