in the west tuesday june, 2019. welcome back to "cbs this morning." ahead what could happen next in the newest fight between the u.s. and iran. we'll talk with former acting cbs director michael morell. plus the missing piece of stone hinge that might explain what that ancient stone circle is all about. but first, eye-opener at th to i morning with tensions between u.s. and iran growing. >> the droops will provide greater defense against possible missile attacks and additional surveillance of the iranian military. >> carrie lam did offer her apologies and said she's sad about the protest and violence that rocked the city in the past
8:01 am
week. >> more than 300 people inside the building where the gunman opened fire. federal agents able to take out the attacker. >> the suspect, alberto rodriguez mota paid $8,000 for the hit. >> even though there has been an apology for the officer's actions, the family does not believe justice has been served. >> friends and fans saluting fashion pioneer gloria vanderbilt. her son, anderson cooper, called her an extraordinary woman that lived life on her terms. >> trump dumping polsters. >> showed the president trailing joe biden by double digits in key states. >> it's like firing a canary in a coal mine for its bad attitude. wake up, you lousy, damn bird. come on. you're fired. pack up your stuff and leave soon, because i'm feeling
8:02 am
sleepy. >> i don't know. colbert, you could end every 8:00 hour with his show the night before. i'm tony. gayle king on assignment. tensions soaring with u.s. and iran means more troops going to the middle east. defense department deploying 1,000 more troops after u.s. accused iran of leading last week's oil tanker attack in the gulf of oman. they released these images yesterday. they show iran moving a mine from the hull of one tanker and what it looked like after the mine was taken away. >> secretary of state mike pompeo said on "face the nation," a military response is possible. >> the united states is considering a full range of options. we've briefed the president a couple of times. we'll continue to keep him updated. >> you say a full range of options, does that include a military response? >> of course.
8:03 am
of course. the president will consider everything we could do. >> the president said we will go to war with ira keep it from getting nuclear weapons but not necessarily to protect oil supplies. >> they are reacting to the tanker attack in different ways. charlie d'agata at the united arab emirates with the united states response. >> united states trying to ramp up international support but the case against iran is not a slam-dunk here. officials here in the uae have been careful not to directly name check iran, instead saying the attacks are the work of an unnamed state actor. iran's regional archrival saudi arabia has taken a far more aggressive approach releasing video of saudi military aircraft and u.s. fighter jets in formation conducting exercises over the persian gulf in a clear show of force and a message aimed directly at iran. the saudi crown prince has flat-out accused iran and its
8:04 am
protecti proxies of being behind the attacks. both tankers off the coast but we're kept away from them. in fact, we've been told in no uncertain terms taking a boat out and doing filming of any description is strictly forbidden. that underlines the extreme sensitivities here. >> senior national contributor michael morell deputy director and acting director of the cia. good morning, michael. >> good morning, anthony. >> the defense department saying we're not seeking conflict with iran, so what message are we sending by sending 1,000 troops to the middle east? >> anthony, i think we're sending a message we're going to gofundme our interest. i actually think this step is prudent. as david martin told us earlier in the program, the job of these additional forces is going to be increased surveillance, watching the iranians, to defend u.s. forces and u.s. military bases.
8:05 am
i think it makes sense from a message perspective and defensive armed forces perspective. >> michael, this comes as iran is increasing its nuclear enrichment. one u.s. official called this nuclear blackmail. is that how you see it? >> this is a step by the iranians to put additional pressure on the international community, to push us to stop our maximum pressure campaign. that's what they tried to do last we're with the attack on ships. that's what they are trying to do now by taking one step away from the nuclear agreement. they are under severe pressure from sanctions. they want that to stop. this the course they have chosen. i think it's really important to note adriana that they are still a long way -- even if they break this threshold for low enriched uranium, they are a long way away from a nuclear weapon. we are not on the verge of a nuclear crisis here. that would be at least a year away. >> michael, what do you think of the intelligence released by the u.s.ving
8:06 am
mine on the hull of one of these tankers? does that support mike pompeo and the president's position that iran is definitely behind these attacks? >> tony, i think so. i was persuaded by the high-resolution photographs. i was persuaded by the time line that the administration released yesterday. i was persuaded last thursday by the secretary of state's strong statement. and most importantly, i was persuaded on sunday on "face the nation" when adam schiff, the ranking democrat of the house intelligence committee told margaret brennan that the evidence that the iranians are behind this is strong. adam is no fan of the administration. so the fact that he has seen the intelligence and says it's strong is convincing to me. >> michael, when you're talking about this area of the world, grainy photos allegedly showing something, a lot of people their minds back 2003 run-up to iraq.
8:07 am
are our allies punishing us today for mistakes made back then? >> i think there are three issues, tony. one is the iraq issue. that's going to take a long time before that gets out of people's memory. the second issue is that this administrati administration, let's face it, says false hoods every day, particularly out of the white house. that has undermined our credit able. we have to overcome that. perhaps most important are the other nations of the world including our allies and partners actually blame us for the situation that we're in today. they blame us for pulling out of the nuclear deal and creating this crisis. so when you put all three of those together, that's why they are responding the way they are to what happened last week. >> so how close, michael, do you think we are to a conflict with iran here? >> i believe neither country at this point wants war. iran doesn't want it, president trump doesn't want it, the united states doesn't want it. i think that could change if
8:08 am
they get close to a nuclear weapon but as i say, that's a year away. i think the risk of conflict would be miscalculation. if iranians miscalculate and were to attack a u.s. military base and actually kill americans, i think we would be in a different place. if the saudis or emiratis were to respond and attack iran, i think we'd be in a different place. miscalculation could bring us to conflict. >> michael morell for us. thank you very much. technology is changing the future of work. we are starting off the date with areas of fog. otherwise, mainly clear skies. you will see plenty of sunshine all across the region as we head to the afternoons. you will have to clearing even as

every tuday, every tuesday, our "eye on money" series looks at financial issues americans face. this week we focus on marriage and money. june is a very popular month for weddings, and according to the planning website, couples pay
8:15 am
-- paid almost $33,000 on weddings last year. 80% said they set a budget, but 45% said they went over it. we asked one new york bride and groom about their pre-wedding finances. ♪ >> we got engaged in october. we went to the park and were having a picnic and he was playing guitar, and it was just a nice, beautiful day, and then there it was, a beautiful ring. >> we were getting married in brooklyn. we found a beautiful venue. >> an average wedding in new york is $70,000, and we wanted to do well below that. we set a budget of $50,000. >> you have to negotiate. everything is negotiable. >> the catering was 8 to 10k, the florist 8k.
8:16 am
it gets kind of crazy. >> if you are paying for your own wedding, you will have to make sacrifices. >> we didn't go on vacation for a while. >> we didn't. >> but it was worth it because this is the wedding we want to have and we don't have a choice but to pay for it ourselves. >> it's the most important day of your life. it will beincredible. i'm super excited. analyst jill schlesinger is here with important financial reminders for the big day and beyond. jill, i'm so happy you're here. >> come into my office, adriana. >> free financial advice. >> clear my schedule. i'm a bit late. i'm getting married in a couple of weeks. i could have used this advice a little bit earlier. so for people who are just starting out their planning, what are the financial issues and things that should be on their checklist? >> okay. so for the wedding itself, we have to figure out who's contributing what. gone are the days where it's the
8:17 am
bride's family is paying for this and the groom's family is paying for this. just figure out who is willing and able to chip in. then you've got that budget. 45% of people blow through the budget but have the budget, know what you're going to spend. remember, this is an important day so i appreciate our couple that said it's the most important day of your life, but you may think forward and say, well, do i want to spend that much money because there's going to be another important day where i might want to have that money set aside. >> three-quarters of people say they're welling to take on debt for their wedding. is that a good idea? >> that is a terrible idea. that is beyond a terrible idea. that is such a bad idea. as my father liked to say to me, way back when a hundred years ago. he said on one hand you have a pile of money, on the other hand you have a dirty cake knife. so you want to say why are we going into debt for this? you can have a great marriage. >> i love the image of the wedding for you is a dirty cake
8:18 am
knife. the thing that's really interesting is that people are going into debt maybe for things that they don't ultimately appreciate. we have surveys where people said if i had just invited fewer people, that would cut down the cost. if i spent less on the wedding planner, flowers, the type of food. no one is going to say at adriana's wedding, which we're all crashing, you know what, the food was so good. they're going to say she looked beautiful, happy, it was a wonderful event. >> so there is the wedding and then there is the marriage. there's a -- 54% of people don't actually discuss their finances -- or they do, only about half the people discuss their finances before being married. don't you think you should have that conversation ahead of time? what do you have in your bank account? i've got this much. >> absolutely. that's a mind-blowing statistic. they're spending more time planning their wedding than their financial future. you want to share information. you want to say this is how much debt i have, this is what my assets are. and then you want to come to a
8:19 am
determination. are we going to merge our money or are we going to keep it separate? it doesn't matter. you just have to come to an agreement. if one person loves to manage money, then let that person be the one who follows the money. if one person loves to run the investments, let her run the investments, but talk about it, come up with a game plan and revisit that game plan every quarter. don't do it in the middle of a fight but have these conversations. >> good advice. i also like what we discussed at this table, which is don't focus on the wedding, focus on celebrating the 15th year or the 20th year. that's where the hard stuff talks. >> my aunt and uncle's 60th anniversary today. >> congratulations to them. we asked people to tell us whether they would sign a prenup. jill will explain who should consider a prenup during the break. harvard accepted a survivor of the parkland shooting and then said no a few months later.

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it's time to bring you softhrief the table this morning. this is where we eat. pick a story we'd like to share with each other and all of you. adriana, start us off. >> the story we saw this morning and thought it was really interesting and controversial is from parkland, florida. one of the student activists, kyle kashuv, he was kind of the countervoice to the group of students calling for stricter gun laws. he was admitted to harvard but his admission has been rescinded after comments that he made that were racist, some that were anti-semitic surfaced. another student posted them and they spread. harvard got wind of it, asked him to explain himself in a letter. he did take full responsibility and owned up to it but it wasn't enough for harvard.
8:31 am
they voted to not admit him to harvard. harvard said they made their decisions made on maturity and moral character. one of the victims of the parkland shooting, her brother said this was just because of his political views. >> he made these remarks two years ago. >> when he was on a junior. it was on a google doc that he shared with other students. it's a reminder to people that, number one, you know, to think about these things before you say them and think about what you really believe before you put it down on paper. >> there's a little clause when you're accepted to college, they can rescind the admissions decision if they find new information about your record. i think the reason people are talking about this is because it raises the question of if you did something as a 16-year-old and you say you've moved on as an 18-year-old, should you be held accountable for it, under what circumstances should you be held accountable for it. not everybody is guided expertly or appropriately as a teenager. >> he says it's not reflective of who he is now, particularly

after parkland. >> he says he's grown a lot and wants the opportunity to grow more. he's dedicated to school safety and is a new person. but he said these things, he oengd up owned up to it and these are the consequences. >> if you're a parent and haven't had a conversation about this kind of language, have it today. i've got a story about world population. you probably have been hearing for years that it's going to go off the charts. i remember back in the '70s there was a conversation about how world population was going to grow so much we were all going to be fighting each other for food and resources would run out. now pew is telling us that based on their latest analysis, global population is actually going to peak and then basically decline slightly at about 2100, ending of the century. >> really? >> that's amazing to me. everybody said it was just going to keep going up and up. >> it's a big reversal and it's kind of a problem because it means the global population is going to age. it means governments like ours aren't going to have enough people paying into social security, paying into insurance programs to support our old
8:33 am
bodies. >> that's a huge issue in europe but also in china. that's why they amended the one child policy because they need the children to support the aging population. >> people, get busy tonight. there's still time to act. >> they said the median age will go from 31 to 42 by the end of the century. that's just amazing. my story is a little on the bizarre side. a man was caught at new york's jfk airport with 34 live birds, finches, in his carry-on luggage. each one was hidden in a hair curler. apparently this is not strange at jfk airport. there were 200 finches discovered last year. why? apparently they come from guy anna and they're apparently really good singers and they hold singing contests in the bronx and in the city and really good singing birds are very valuable. they can fetch $3,000 to $10,000.
8:34 am
so there's a whole kennedy airport. >> can i raise my hand right now to do that story? >> i'm obsessed. i want to see one of these contests. >> as a miami boy, miami international and jfk, check your luggage tag. you don't want somebody else's bag. >> they caught a guy last year with 70 finches in a black duffel bag. >> i think the giveaway was this was a man with a bag full of hair curlers. >> you never know, tony. >> maybe it was the singing coming from the bag? >> could have been. >> 30 finches can make a lot of noise. since the 1960s, cbs news has reported on the impact of advancing technology on workers. >> with machine muscles and a computerized brain, the robots of tomorrow will take over an astonishing number of jobs for man. >> can i help you find something? >> reporter: this autonomous
8:35 am
multi-lingual robot is designed to help customers at the home improvement chain, lowe's, get their shopping done as quickly as possible. >> it's estimated in the next 15 to 20 years, 32% of jobs will change significantly due to automation. 14% will be completely automated. right now 60% of adults don't have the skills for emerging jobs. the new book "how to win in a winner take all world" has advice for how to succeed in this economy. the author is neil irwin. neil joins us at the table. good morning. >> good morning, tony. >> a lot of anxiety out there. you write in the book that the old adage of show up early, work hard and learn your trade no longer good enough. >> it isn't. you know, i think we all learn when we're growing up, the thing you're good at, do more of it. if you're good at a certain sport, keep at it. but the reality is what the modern workplace rewards is flexibility, the ability to adapt and work across different specialty functions and make teams work better together.
8:36 am
compared to a relay race, it's not just going fast, it's also about getting the handoff right. modern companies need that handoff to w not. i think it's a trait that can be cultivated. we're not natural public speakers. you can work at it and become adaptable when you're young. >> you reached out to companies asking for their most successful performers from goldman sachs to shake shack. when you said i want to go in and figure out what your secret sauce is what was their reaction? >> normally i write about gdp and unemployment numbers, but i think there's some changes in the economy that are tied to these changes in the corporate world. so i go to microsoft or ge or goldman sachs and say, okay, how does it work here in the 21st century? what does it take to thrive here? i think they were initially, well, i don't know about that but i fe intse or lot of
8:37 am
people. >> so there are lessons in your book working for big corporations. are there takeaways f people who are not working in an office environment? >> yeah, we're not all going to work at goldman sachs or google, but i think these lessons apply across the board. you know, this idea of adaptability, of understanding how you can drive technological change, not be a victim of technological change, that's true whether you're in the executive suite or on the factory floor. >> whether you shower before work or after. >> walmart has been raising wages lately and adding training. not out of the goodness of their heart but because they need workers skilled in these changes in the retail industry. >> you say company loyalty is a thing of the past. >> yeah. this idea it's like a marriage isn't true anymore. it's more like a series of hook-ups. you do it two or three years, move on. even if you stay with a company for a long time, i only had two employers. that's fine to stay at one place for a long time. but make sure you're growing and
8:38 am
finding new opportunities within that organization. >> what are some examples? you talk about a glou person. what is a glue person? >> a glue person is one of these people, and i met them all over the place, who make the teams they're on better. they understand how to work with the person with that technical skill and this person who's in financial and this computer programmer and make that team come together to be better than the sum of their parts. i think this adaptability, doing all these different jobs, exposing yourself to different things is how you can make yourself a glue person. those people have a lot of success in the modern organization. >> i've been living my professional life with just a regular clock on the wall. you've given me a new clock with a quarter million hours on it. what's the significance of that number? >> if you finish college at 22, retire at 65, clean at 8 hours a night, you have about a quarter million hours to work with that's your entire working hours. there's all these trade-offs we make between work and fun and family, hobbies. and i think being thoughtful about those choices you make and using those quarter million hours well and according to your

own priorities for life is the real lesson here. the book is called "how to win" it's not just how to make the most money. it's how to have a career that's rewarding, durdurable, fulfillf how much should we fear automation? >> the key is not to fear or not fear automation, the key is to make sure you understand how your industry is changing, how automation is going to affect it and that you can be the person who drives that automation, drives that change rather than the one who's the victim of it who is displaced and has to find something completely new. >> neil irwin, thank you very much for being with us. a lot of scary stuff but we're trying to take it all in and understand it. hopefully they won't find a way to automate newscasters. how to win in a winner take all world is on sale today. thousands will visit one of the most ancient sites in the world this week to witness the summer solstice. how a small piece of rock missing for more than half a

stonehenge in southern england is one of the most distinctive and mysterious monuments in the world, attracting more than 1.5 million visitors last year. the stone circle is thought to be 5,000 years old. the heaviest stone weighs 38 tons but nobody knows how the stones got there or the reason they look the way they do. well, as ian lee reports, a piece removed from one of the stones six decades ago could bring some answers. >> reporter: there's a new dawn of discovery at stonehenge. one that illuminates mysteries concealed for thousands of years. at first glance, you might find the discovery this cylinder of rock unremarkable. >> holes were drilled in the rock. >> reporter: but for robin and lewis phillips, it went one thing, their dad, robert. >> when you come back here, do you have that connection with your father? >> yes, very much so. he talked about it and it was
8:45 am
very important to the work that he did. he's always been interested in archaeology. >> reporter: in 1958 robert phillips worked on a major restoration project commissioned by the british government to make the monument safer and help historians better understand what stonehenge was and why it was there. they drilled through the largest of the rocks, removing three stone cores. >> you can see one just there to about -- you see that one there? >> reporter: robert phillips was gifted one as a souvenir. the other two it's thought were discarded. >> that core sample that you guys brought back at that time back in the '50s, it was just a piece -- >> kind of waste material. >> waste material, yeah. it wasn't perceived to have that historical value? >> no. i think that the standards of the day were a bit different in conservation, were a bit different to what they are now. >> reporter: fast forward six decades. philips now in his 90s asked his
8:46 am
sons to return the waste material to stonehenge. what happened next wasn't your typical homecoming. >> this is the holy grail really for stonehenge. >> reporter: what had become a family heirloom was to season greaney, a key to unlock history. >> when the phillips family first got in touch with us, we had no idea this existed. >> reporter: in 1958, samples like this couldn't say much. but today it can tell a life story. >> when you learn where they're from, then what does that tell you? >> that helps us understand the method, how they were transported, the route that they were transported. so it opens up a whole slate of new questions for us to go answer. >> reporter: for archaeologists, there remains one question, likely as old as the stones themselves. >> why move all these rocks to this one location? >> we don't know. the simple answer, we don't know. we think this is a prehistoric temple. it's aloigned with the movement
8:47 am
of the sun so we think it's a ceremonial space. but exactly what the stones mean, why they built them in the way they set them up as we can see today, there are a lot of mysteries of stonehenge that we have yet to get to the bottom of. >> reporter: who knows, maybe something unremarkable could solve the most remarkable mystery of all. for "cbs this morning," ian lee, stonehenge, england. >> it's eluded answers for all these years. >> testing that rock whatever you call it -- >> the tube. >> put that in the finder outer machine. >> finder outer machine? >> it's amazing that she said you can use that and test it to see how it was moved. it's amazing that a rock can reveal the way of transport possibly. >> we've got to send ian back for the results. on today's "cbs this morning" podcast, our dr. david shares the mental benefits of exercise, including how i

8:52 am
weekend. schieber's father was pa in 2007 while running the chicago marathon. schieber said he invited the officers because he wanted a part of his dad to be there. >> i think he would be filled with so much joy knowing that they cared that much about his family, knowing that even though he's gone, his family is still protected and loved. >> the officers spent the evening sharing stories about schieber's father and even gave him his father's old uniform. >> that's so great. >> a dozen years after his father's death and they show up for a party. that's really great. >> 18 cops at a high school graduation problem is usually a problem. >> yes, it is. usually you don't like to see that. that does it for us. be sure to tune into the cbs evening news tonight. we'll see you tomorrow on "cbs this morning." bye-bye. a little bird told me that you
