week in the gulf of oman. charlie d'agata is in the united arab emirates, what can you tell us? >> good morning. while the trump administration may be piling up evidence that iran is to be blamed for what's now become a series of attacks here, the international community remains divided. germany's foreign minister has cast doubt, france remains uncommitted. and even here in the uae, they've been reluctant to point the finger of blame directly at iran. president trump says he has no doubt who is behind back-to-back explosions that damed tankers here in the gulf of oman on thursday. >> well, iran did do it and you know they did it because you saw the boat. i guess one of the mines didn't explode and it's probably got essentially iran written all over it. fwl what he's referring to, images released from the u.s. military showing one of the tankers with a hole blown in the starboard side and what military
4:07 am
officials say is an unexploded mine still attached to the hull. later, an american aircraft captured this footage, what the u.s. says is an iranian boat with islamic revolutionary guards seen detaching the mine and making off with it. >> that was the boat, that was them. and they didn't want the evidence left behind. >> u.s. investigators boarded the japanese tanker, and found pieces of the magnet that fixed the mine to the ship. the other tanker, norwegian-owned stained three explosions and burned for hours. iran insists it had nothing tdo. and they follow similar coordinated attacks less than a month ago, that targeted four tankers right off this port. iran denies any involvement in those attacks, too. a passing iranian cargo ship rescued the crew of the "altair." but then remaining romanian boats surrounded the ship and
4:08 am
got the crew. cranking up tensions in the region that have been rising for the past few weeks. now trump administration officials are looking to garner support from u.s. allies. >> we have an international situation there in the middle east. it's not a u.s. situation. and the focus for myself and ambassador bolton and secretary pompeo is to build international consensus to this international problem. >> that international cooperation might look like reflagging oil tankers traveling through what's now clearly become a dangerous stretch of water and essentially providing military escort. something done during the height of tensions here in the 1980s. dana? >> charlie, thank you. a birthday present for president trump on friday after the justice department released a legal opinion saying that treasury secretary steven mnuchin was right to withhold president trump's tax returns from a house committee that subpoenaed them. nicole killian is at the white
4:09 am
house with more. nicole, good morning. go good morning to you, dana. this appears to be a victory for president trump at least for now. you'll recall back in may the house ways and means committee issued a subpoena for six years' worth of the president's tax returns. at the time treasury secretary steve mnuchin refused to turn over the documents, saying the request lacked a legitimate legislative purpose. in its decision, the justice department backed that up. the 33-page opinion said because the committee's chairman, congressman richard neal wanted to make the president's tax returns public, the request didn't meet criteria for a legitimate legislative function. the battle for president trump's tax returns has been going on since before he was elected in 2016. the partisan battle got new life in 2018, when democrats took back the majority in the house. this decision is likely to fan the flames between congressional democrats and attorney general william barr, who they accuse of trying to stonewall congress.
4:10 am
oregon senator ron widen said the opinion further reflects attorney general barr's willingness to protect the president at all costs. besides mr. trump, every president since richard nixon has made his tax returns public. anthony? >> nicole, thank you. president trump has tried to walk back some of the explosive comments he made about his willingness to accept dirt on a political opponent from a foreign government. without feeling an obligation to notify law enforcement. the comments raised red flags among democrats and some republicans. we're at the white house with more. >> i think i might want to listen. there's nothing wrong with listening. >> president trump said he would not refuse dirt on a political rival if another country offered it. even though it's a crime for a campaign to knowingly accept anything valuable from a foreign government. >> you want that kind of interference in our elections? >> it's not an interference, they have information, i think i'd take it.
4:11 am
if i thought there were something wrong i would go maybe to the fbi if i thought there were something wrong. >> fbi director christopher wray said the right thing to do in every case is to report it. >> that's something that the fbi would want to know about. >> the fbi director is wrong. >> the controversy is unfolding as congress continues to investigate russian meddling in the 2016 campaign. donald trump jr. testified about meeting with a russian lawyer promising damaging information about hillary clinton. >> i will tell you this -- russia, if you're listening -- >> then candidate trump once asked moscow to investigate his opponent. >> there was an assault on our democracy. house speaker nancy pelosi said the president is inviting foreign governments to play a role in our elections. >> the president gave us once again evidence that he does not know right from wrong. it's a very sad thing. >> even republicans are struggling to defend mr. trump. senator lindsey graham, a faithful ally, called him out.
4:12 am
>> i think it's a mistake. i think it's a mistake of law. i don't want to send a signal to encourage this. >> cbs news, the white house. "new york magazine" reporter gabrielle benedetti joins us. lindsey graham said there are republicans have uncomfortable with the president. what's the fallout. >> a lot of people are uncomfortable. republicans have said it was a mistake. but most of the president's allies have not said much. democrats have been raising alarms, saying it's an essentially invitation to foreign governments to meddle in our elections. the president said it's a long way from no collusion. >> the president did clarify his position yesterday. with that clarification enough? or did he just feed more into the ammo to his critics. >> it was a bit of a clarification. he essentially said no, i would do it even if it wasn't, most of the material wasn't that bad. so it wasn't much of a real
4:13 am
clarification. again i'm old enough to remember when he was saying no collusion. now he's saying you know you can talk to foreign governments most of the time. it's kind of okay. >> for democrats did it just reinvigorate those looking towards impeachment. >> there are those who say this is yet more evidence that this president is lawless and unfit to govern. but nancy pelosi, in charge of this process is saying the majority of my caucus is not there yet. this is not going to be the thing that pushes us over the edge. there's no doubt that pressure is increasing from the left. >> let's turn to the president's assertion that iran was behind the attack of two tankers. how serious is this situation become, do you think? >> we don't know because the president keeps saying something more is cing. haveo wha thereeebe a div i xts le ofcand international allies that are trying to ratchet tensions down. a lot of people saying we don't want to go down the road to war
4:14 am
with iran. >> for me, this is, in is big. because if you attack a u.s. vessel, that's reason f how, why aren't they saying how they know it's iran? for sure? >> well the president says he knows it's iran. but there's clear divide in washington as to how real this intelligence is. obviously this is all very sensitive. i suspect that we're going to get a lot more information about this in coming days. or there will be more pressure for this information. because there's nothing that republican and democratic lawmakers in washington are more wary of these days, than calls for war, calls for ratcheting up tension with an adversary with so little intel. >> is there something that has been dpleened from the war in the '80s that can be used now? >> a lot of the intel is very sketchy now so they're trying to look back at that and other wars that have happened since then. other situations where there were attacks that weren't really
4:15 am
clear where it was from. you have a lot of people in washington trying to look back at that and say, obviously we didn't escalate tensions to a full war then. we don't want to do that now. >> the official line-ups for the first democratic debate have been set. 20 candidates appearing over two nights. >> 2-0. >> some got left out. which is -- >> that's right. >> that's pretty rough. so what do you think the strategy for the dems going in here has to be in. >> it depends. candidate to candidate. but you have nine other people on stage with you. everyone is going to be trying to have a breakout moment. particularly if you're one of these candidates that's not that well known. there are a lot of heavyweights on each of the nights. the major candidates. but if you're someone who we don't talk about that much on tv you're going to be trying to have a moment or something that makes you stand out. >> is this a make-or-break moment for some candidates? >> absolutely. they're going to run out of money and attention if not. tomorrow morning on "face the nation" margaret brennan's guests will dru democratic

and forming a clot. in a clinical study, brilinta worked better than plavix. brilinta reduced the chance of having another heart attack... ...or dying from one. don't stop taking brilinta without talking to your doctor, since stopping it too soon increases your risk of clots in your stent, heart attack, stroke, and even death. brilinta may cause bruising or bleeding more easily, or serious, sometimes fatal bleeding. don't take brilinta if you have bleeding, like stomach ulcers, a history of bleeding in the brain, or severe liver problems. slow heart rhythm has been reported. tell your doctor about bleeding new or unexpected shortness of breath any planned surgery, and all medicines you take. if you recently had a heart attack, ask your doctor if brilinta is right for you. my heart is worth brilinta. if you can't afford your medication, astrazeneca may be able to help. so kim, you going for our big drive safe & save discount? yup, using the app. i've been quite vigilant. sharon says step on it. the meeting's started. ok, write her back 'dear sharon, don't mess with my discount!' faster mommy, i gotta go to the bathroom. i do too honey, but we're gonna hold it for mommy's discount.
