for boris johnson, the sitting prime minister, the election is obout getting the parliamentary majority he needs to bulldoze his version of brexit through. and he's provided some visual aids to make his points. he says he'd take the united kingdom out of the european nion by the end of next months. his main opposition comes from the la the labor party's jeremy corbyn corbsays he'd negotiate yet hother divorce deal with the eu and hold another referendum on whether the uk should leave. he'd also nationalize many of lsitain's large public industries. the waters are even further muddied here by the smaller parties that could split the vote, and the opinion polls show the gap between the two major parties is, in fact, narrowing. gayle, it's unclear whether this election will, in fact, sort anything out. out.l right, mark. to be continued for sure. thank you so much. reporting from london. t> the parents of a toddler who ng l to her death from an open

allegations of nonconsensual sex. his representatives had no comment to cbs news about the proposed deal. jody cantor of the "new york times" helped break the story and reported news of this settlement. good morning. >> good morning. >> i think the most startling thing in this deal is, first of all, weinstein won't have to pay his accusers out of his own pocket and he's not admitting any wrongdoing? >> exactly. everybody's focused on that criminal trial that's going to start next month, but this is in a way just as important because most women with accusations against weinstein can't bring him to criminal court. it was sexual harassment they were alleging which is illegal but not criminal or there's a statute of limitations issues. so this is the venue for most of the women to bring their accusations forward in court and weinstein is essentially able to sweep it away in a single stroke

without paying anything to the victims out of his own pocket or admitting wrongdoing. >> what are you hearing from the accusers? >> it's very controversial among them. they're really unsettled. some of them say this is the best they could get. this was a bankruptcy proceeding. they lost some of the early battles on this lawsuit. on the other hand, some of them are outraged and feeling like they had no choice. >> times up, the group founded in the wake of the weinstein allegations, called the deal a symptom of a problematic broken system. what kind of effect could this deal have on other cases out there? >> we don't know yet the effect on other cases but i think the huge effect it's going to have is given the weinstein story means so much to so many people and has had so much cultural consequence, this helps answer the question of will weinstein

face legal accountability for these accusations and it's a very ambiguous answer. >> the criminal case goes on. there are two accuser there is . >> there's kind of a cultural stereo type of the weinstein victim as like an actress in a beautiful evening gown. that's true as far as it goes, but remember we're talking about many, many women, many women who were not famous, who were very young at the time or were employees or assistants. so most of the victims involved in this case are not famous, not powerful and don't have a lot of money. >> do you think this will affect the criminal trial at all in that the perception is why would you settle if you're totally innocent, why would you settle a case like that? >> i've been talking about that with lawyers and they say they don't know, but i think what it

adds to is this sort of building sense as we get into the trial of how is the law going to treat all of these accusations? on the one hand, the evidence against weinstein from women, the evidence we've documented in journalism is overwhelming. so many people, so much evidence. on the other hand, how is the law actually going to respond to that. >> it will be interesting. we talked to his lawyer who said bad behavior is not a crime and i think sometimes forget that. it will be interesting to see how this all turns out in january. the parents of a british teenager killed by an american driver are back in this country and they are still fighting for justice. ahead in an exclusive interview why they're ready for legal action in an american court. and a reminder to describe to our podcast. cbs morning news on the go. hear the days top stories in less than 20 minutes every weekday morning. we'll be right back. man: sneezes

in an exclusive interview, the family of a british teenager killed in a car crash in the uk explain why they are now ready to sue the woman who caused it in the united states. 19-year-old harry dunn was struck and killed in august by a car driven by anne scoolas. she's the wife of an american official. she left britain in the middle of the investigation claiming diplomatic immunity. imtiaz tyab spoke with dunn's parents last night, very late last night, after they arrived in this country. you did the interview at 1:00 in the morning. >> we did.

>> bravo to you that you're sitting here. >> thank you, it was they struggle. >> what is their goal here? >> it's pretty extraordinary. as you say, the family has just arrived in the u.s. to pursue this civil case. but really this case is extraordinary, and now an extraordinary legal precedent that they hope to use, the dunn family's lawyer plans to rely on ancient english common law dating back to 1774 which says even though the offense may have been committed in one country, the accused can face charge in another. now as ever, for the dunns, this isn't just about justice. it's about closure. >> we're in limbo. we're trying our hardest to get this resolved for harry and get the truth out there. >> reporter: almost four months after their son harry was killed while riding his motorcycle, tim ready to meet with their legal team in washington. it must be exhausting.

>> it is exhausting. it's -- it's 24/7. but as a family, we feel this is the right way -- we feel it's the way we have to go. >> reporter: anne scoolas had just left the air force post where her husband was stationed when she hit dunn while driving on the wrong side of the road. her legal team previously told cbs news she had no time to react before the crash, and that she cooperated with local investigators. >> she needs to still face what she's done to us and take some punishment for that. >> reporter: the family has yet to meet sacoolas face to face. they came close in october when they met president trump at the white house. sacoolas was waiting to meet them in a room nearby. >> it was -- it was quite bizarre really looking back on it now. thankfully as a family, we discussed many scenarios, including the most bizarre and

ludicrous one that we could come up with which was the fact that anne sacoolas may well have been there. >> reporter: what were you feeling in that moment? >> to be honest, we didn't feel a lot. >> like charlotte said -- >> bizarre. >> we talked about it. we -- we already had like in our minds that we were going to say no. as charlotte has said, it was -- it would have been unfair on her and on us. >> reporter: now months after the crash, harry's family says they're facing a new challenge -- the holidays without their son. >> he from what we know loved christmas. >> he did. >> reporter: and he's not going to be there this year. >> yeah. >> reporter: how does that feel? >> we're not doing christmas this year. we used to have to chop the top off of the tree to get it into our house. there's not been a year gone by where both the boys, harry especially, it's like, you know, when are we getting the tree? make sure it's bigger and better this year, mom. >> it's going to be horrific

this year. the trouble is, it's going to be difficult from now on every christmas. >> reporter: because harry loved it so much. >> it was his favorite time of year. >> now we reached out to anne scoolas. we talked to the lawyers representing this american woman about this legal step but did not receive any comment. we also spoke to some legal experts who tell us that they also have questions about jurisdiction if and when a lawsuit is filed here. but really the big question here is diplomatic immunity. will it extend to sacoolas now that she's back in the u.s. >> remember in the beginning they told us all they wanted was an apology. they said, just apologize. >> have they got -- >> they have not received the apology that they want. they want to see her in the uk, facing the criminal justice system in the uk. they say emphatically, they don't want her to go to jail. >> i wish the u.s. and the british governments could find a solution on this. >> the holidays are always the hardest.

he spoke to our kris van cleave. >> reporter: what were you seeing that worried you so much? just that people were -- that -- >> it was definitely the people, but you know, the extended amount of overtime and fatigue and stuff. and then, you know, we saw the metrics. the factory metrics were showing that the factory was in dire straits. >> we got a statement from boeing on the faa document. in part it says the actions that boeing and the faa took were fully consistent with the faa's analysis and established process. all right. major league baseball's commissioner says more teams are expanding the netting at their ballparks to protect fans from foul balls. rob manfred says all 30 teams will have expanded netting for the 2020 season. a study found in the past eight seasons more than 800 fans were injured by baseballs. seven teams will expand the netting to the foul poles. others will expands it to the outfield areas where the stands angle away from the field -- >> there's no formal baseball policy on netting.

the ball can come off the bat at 100 miles per hour and can get to a fan in literally a second. >> that's right. >> this will improve safety. i wonder if it will impact attendance. you know, it does change the way you can see the game. if you're not way up close, it's a little blurrier. >> but i want to live. >> i think that what mlb decided for fans. there was a 79-year-old woman in 2018 killed and two children hurt. good news. a quick-thinking man in houston rescued a dog after its leash got stuck in an elevator door. watch this video. surveillance video from the apartment building. look at. this the young woman walks into the elevator with her dog, but she did not realize, wait for it, wait for it, she goes in right there. she didn't realize, guys, that her pomeranian did not follow her in. >> wow. >> so -- >> on a leash. >> right. the door closed with the dog outside attached to the leash, you can see johnny mathis rushing over, his real name --

♪ ain't her fault at al it's thursday, december 12th, 2019. welcome back to cbs this morning. chances are if you follow politics or entertainment, and chances are you do, you know both the people making headlines. >> we got mayor pete buttigieg here. >> and lizzo is this year's most nominated grammy artist and "time magazine's" entertainer of the year. >> is this the best you could do this morning? >> oh, this old thing? >> what are three words that would best describe you? >> standing near lizzo right now. >> very good. what are three things that would best describe you? >> glamorous. talented. and beautiful. >> have you had any dna tests

lately? >> yes, and i am 100% -- [ laughter ] >> where are you going with that? we got a lot to discuss. this has never happened before. the mayor and lizzo at the same time in the room. i love it. we got a lot to discuss with mayor pete and lizzo coming up. but first, eye opener at 8:00. it is another historic day on capitol hill. with the initial vote on two articles of impeachment against president trump. 40 committee members gave opening statements last night. the true debate underway today. >> investigators now say that the two shooters were a couple who had possible ties to what some people consider a hate group. >> this recovery option gives family members a glimmer of hope. officials hope that the volcano will quiet down just enough to let them recover the bodies of those who didn't make it. >> royal caribbean says its hearts go out to the family. khloe's mother, who is a prosecutor herself, says the family never wanted charges to

be filed against him. >> now, what's at stake here is more than who gets to run the country. it's about what kind of country this will be and whether britain stays in or leaves the european union. >> 17 major screw ups on every level of the fbi when it comes to these filings of the fisa application against president trump and carter page. >> in each of the four applications. >> one application omitted the fact that carter page was a government informant. one relied too much on the steele dossier, and one of them was just investigate this guy cause, yeah. >> welcome back to cbs "this morning." i'm still distracted by lizzo and mayor pete. so much fun. set to take another historic step later today. here's a look inside the room where the judiciary committee is expected to send articles of peach against president trump to the full house. nancy is ounds th

nancy outside that hearing room right now. can you take us through the timeline, please? >> sure. all day long, gayle, this committee will be debating these two articles of impeachment. and at the end, they'll take a pair of votes. one on abuse of power. the other on obstruction of congress. in their opening statements last night, democrats argued that this president violated his oath, threatened national security, and stonewalled congress. while republicans called the process a sham with a predetermined outcome based on speculation. now, if this 40-member committee passes the articles today, those articles will then advance to the house floor. and a full house vote is expected next week. possibly, as early as tuesday. democrats tell us they do have the votes to impeach president trump. from there, the case would go to the senate for a trial. majority leader mitch mcconnell says he expects that trial to begin in january. exactly how long that trial will

last is anyone's guess. but republicans have been telling us recently that they prefer a shorter trial that would allow them to move on to other things as quickly as possible. >> nancy, thank you. this is the final day for democratic presidential candidates to qualify for their next debate one week from today in los angeles. so far, only seven candidates have done so, including south bend, indiana, mayor, pete buttigieg. he is surging in recent polling in iowa. he is in a tight race with the top candidates and a new poll in new hampshire has him leading the field. they are, of course, the first two states that will hold contests to pick a nominee. mayor pete buttigieg is with us at the table this morning. mayor. welcome. thanks for being here. >> good to be with you. >> as we mentioned, the house is set to vote on impeachment of the president. but the president's expected to be acquitted in the senate. so how do you think this impeachment process, is it helping or hurting the democratic race for president?

>> i think it's process of such importance that you can't think about it in terms of the politics. sometimes there's a situation so grave, constitutionally, that you just have to let it play out. and then let the chips fall where they may politically. now, when i'm on the ground talking to voters in places like iowa, south carolina, and in between, i'm mostly hearing voters asking this basic question of their presidential candidates. and it's this. how is my life going to be different? if you're president versus one of the others. and our message is about preparing for an america after trump. because by definition, we're running not only to be the nominee capable of defeating donald trump. but also, being ready to lead the era that is coming next. and we're going to have huge challenges as a country both in terms of policy making sure that we have healthcare and an economy that works for all of us. and just in terms of unifying a country that will be even more divided on that day than it is today. >> well, in order to do that, first you have to get the n nomination so you can get in office and make the changes you

would like to make. and one of the sticking points people always say about you is difficulty in attracting black voters. you know, and no candidate in recent history has won without the support of black voters. why do you think you're doing so poorly with the black voters? and what are you doing to change that? >> well, we're reaching out to african-american voters in particular in the south. where what we're seeing is there's no more negative view of me. but a lot more folks say they don't know me to begin with. >> how do you think you got in this position to begin with, mayor pete? >> well, what i'm finding is a lot of voters, in particular black voters i talk to, feel like they've not only been often abused by the republican party. but sometimes taken for granted by the democratic party. and that means when you show up and you're new on the scene as oh posed to having had years or even decades in washington, you got a lot more work to do to earn that trust. when you talk in particular to african-american women who have been the backbone of the party in so many ways, really propelled a lot of our most important victories. >> yeah. key voting.

>> and a lot of skepticism of the new person showing up. but i welcome that challenge because it's critically important not only to win but to deserve to win. >> so when you talk to those black voters, and i think you're at 2% right now in south carolina, when you have those conversations to get that 2% up to 20% and beyond, what can you say in your record? what can you point to to say, look, i've helped the lives of black americans? >> what i point is the things we have done in our community that line up with the things i'm proposing we do as a country. for example, we got a lot of ch challenges around housing right now. we've got families that have been red lined into certain neighborhoods. once those neighborhoods become desirable, they get gentrified right back out of them. in south bend, i directed resources to low income and mainly minority neighborhoods to improve the quality of life there. when we look at the -- the national picture for african-americans, we see a wealth gap and an income gap. we need economic empowerment. at home, we work to make sure

that we reduced unemployment. reduced poverty. and had a lot to show for it. so part of it's about my record. part of it's about my plans. but what i'm finding is a lot of times when i'm speak tog voters, before they want to hear anything about your plans, they want to know what's in your heart. and so the biggest thing i have to convey is how my makeup, my being, my faith teaches me my responsibility to make sure that i'm lifting up those who have so often been excluded in our society and politics. >> many of your democratic rivals are not taking big-dollar donations. why have you not adopted the same policy? >> we are getting ready for the fight of our lives. we're going up against donald trump and his allies, who i believe raised $125 million just in the last quarter in order to stay in power. if somebody wants to contribute to my campaign, to support us in taking on donald trump, then we're going to need to bring everything we've got to that fight. i have 700,000 donors. i believe the average donation

to my campaign is $32. and i'm proud. >> release a name of your big bundlers. when do you intend to do that? >> so we've already done i think for the first and second quarter. they're putting together the information for the third quarter. and remember, every single contribution to my campaign is made public. the person who made it, what they do for a living. and this is about making sure that we are ready to compete. but i make exactly one promise to anybody who makes a donation to the campaign. whether they come to an event to see me speak. or whether they go to peteforamerica.com and send in five bucks. the promise is this. i'm going to take that contribution and use it to defeat donald trump. >> i know you heard mayor bloomberg who told us all the other day all the candidates who are running so far, donald trump would eat 'em up. that includes you. what's your response to that? >> here's what it's going to take to beat donald trump. first of all, it would be good to have somebody actually from the industrial midwest. the kinds of communities this president appealed to.

secondly, i think it might be a good idea to have somebody who's actually from the middle class. i may be the only person on that debate stage who is not a millionaire. and i think it's really important right now to have somebody who is a little more in touch with the day to day lives and concerns of americans. and i'm also welcoming the opportunity to challenge this president's military chest thumping. this president thinking that it's somehow pro-military to overthrow military justice in order to benefit a war criminal. i'm happy to talk about and debate the fact that i was packing my bags for afghanistan while he was working on season 7 of celebrity apprentice. >> you have talked about a new generation of leadership and if you became president, you would be the youngest president in history. and you don't have a majority of young voters in this country, according to polls. is there a way in which you're out of touch with your own generation? >> no, but it is certainly the case that often younger candidates tend to attract more support from older voters. but we are building a coalition that's going to draw voters from every part of this country.

now, certainly -- >> you had 3 and 4% among people under the age of 44 in south carolina. it's almost as bad as minority voters. what explains that gap? >> look. there's going to be a continued process to earn support across the coalition. but it's certainly the case that many of the younger voters are more attracted to, for example, you know, the sanders campaign. definitely has more young voters. i was a big fan of bernie sanders when i was 18 years old. it's also the case that we are pulling together a coalition to talk about issues like climate. to act on issues like climate and guns and the economy. that the longer you're planning to be here, the more you have at stake. and young voters have to mobilize in a way that hasn't happened before. if we're going to be able to defeat this president. >> would you forgive all student debt like some of your rivals? >> no, i'm not going to promise we can just waive away all student debt. what i will say, and again, this is personal for me because one of the reasons why i am literally the least-wealthy candidate running for president right now is that i'm married to

a teacher. as a household, we've got six-figure student debt right now so i get it. but that doesn't mean i can just say we're going to make it all go away and it's all free now. what we should do is expand programs for debt relief through public service. we should contemplate removing the student debt of those for-profit, shady colleges that would never have stood up to scrutiny in the department of education to begin with. and make college more affordable on the front end. so what i'm proposing is that we make college tuition-free. public college. for the first 80% of americans. if you're between that 80 and 90%, over $100,000, it will be a sliding scale. if you're fortunate enough to be in that top 10%, i still wish you well. but i think you ought to pay your own tuition. and that's just a difference i have with some of the other candidates who think that even the child of the billionaire should have their college tuition debt paid -- or their college tuition -- paid completely by taxpayers. >> let's talk about other candidates because they're saying we got to go. if you couldn't vote for yourself, who would you vote for? >> i'm not going to name check

any of my competitors. >> go ahead. go ahead, mayor pete. give us a name check. >> i am proud to be part of this field. this is an extraordinary field. talented. diverse. we've been at it for almost a year now. >> when you look at a vp candidate, are you looking for someone that has -- that's maybe a little older and has more experience? or does that not factor into your thinking at this time? >> the number one criterion for a vp candidate is this is a very grave decision. i mean, look, before we even get to the voting. i mean, kidding apart. you know, this is somebody who would have to take over the country in the event that i'm killed or unable to serve. and it's the one decision you make as a candidate that's really a presidential decision because the whole country has to live with it. having said that, whether it's the vp or the cabinet, i also believe that balance is very important. diversity is extremely important. it's one of the reasons i've committed to having a cabinet that's at least 50% women. not only because it's the right thing to do. but because we'll make better decisions. and i think that balance is crucial whenever you're building out. >> it does seem women make

everything better i have to say. who is your favorite republican, mayor pete, before you go? just one name. >> dick luger, senator from indiana. wonderful person. i wish we had more like him. >> mayor, thank you very much for being here. an fo good thursday morning. we're starting off with cloudy skies and areas of fog. catching a bit of break from the rain. maybe a isolated shower this morning. this afternoon showers will be scattered in nature so light showers are possible as we head through the afternoon and even. unsettled weather pattern. 61 san francisco. 65 for san jose.

there is much more news ahead, including a performer with a lot to celebrate is here. we hear lizzo cackling in the green room. she's hanging out. >> no, i'm not. >> find out what inspired her to

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it's time to bring you some of the stories that are the "talk of the table." this morning, this is where we each pick a story we'd like to share with each other and with all of you. gayle is starting us off. did you know that? >> okay -- no, i didn't. i should read the scripts ahead of time. here we go. a man chose the wrong time to rob a convenience store. this time in newton, massachusetts. he didn't see the off-duty police officer already in the back of the store. yowsa. this is lieutenant dave this is lieutenant dave tempesta, a regular customer. he was in the back, and he heard -- he heard the conversation. he walks out, pulls his gun as the suspect was emptying the cash register. what i love is how -- the officer just walked very calmly and just stood there watching him unload the cash register. as you see, there was a struggle. the officer, the clerk, and other customers helped wrestle

the suspect to the ground. he's pleaded not guilty to charges, including armed robbery, assault, and battery on a police officer. i wonder how people can plead not guilty when we see you robbing the place, an active crime. but i thought the officer was cool, sort of sitting there, looking at him for a couple -- a beat before he pulled the gun and said that's enough. >> looked like he'd done this before. >> yes, both of them. bravo to the officer. the store clerk is grateful. >> yeah. >> very well done. >> anthony? >> my story is bears linebacker ka hi l mack played secret exacta to hundreds of -- santa to hundreds of families in his hometown paying off layaway accounts at a walmart in ft. pierce, florida. the reported cost about $80,000. walmart thanked the foundation last week for its generosity.

finger on. and we always talked about it like that weird thing that magic that happens in someone's career. that is what happened. there was a moment where somehow as culture ebbed and flowed, i caught on to that wave and everyone connected with me. you can never choose when the moment comes. >> it's your attitude, too, and your outsize personality, too, don't you think? >> i got a big-old personality. >> so i mean, look at you now, it is very hard to believe that at one point before you were a successful touring musician, you were living in your car, playing music for food. is that true? so how -- >> funny -- >> how did you get out of that? to the person watching this on their phone catching wildfire from the doughnut stop in their car, how do you get to the moment where you are today? >> that's the key moment, through. you have to move forward. i had so many moments where i wanted to give up. i was like, why am i doing this? this is so hard. >> you wanted to give up? >> twice in my life.

>> what did you tell yourself? >> well, the first time i said, you know, i'm doing there for my family. it was really important to me. i don't know why, but like a 21-year-old girl was like, the baby of her family, like, i have to take care of my mother and brother and sister. that was a thing on this drove me to continue. >> yeah. >> then the second time, which was when "truth hurts" first came out, i was like, man, i'm tired. i think that -- if i put music out, nobody would care. like i'm not making a splash. something told me to keep going because i had to make music. >> yeah. >> it literally is the joy of my life. >> one your early supporters was prince. what did he do for you? >> prince made -- the day before and the day after leaving paisley park like transformed me from just like a musician to an artist. i think i learned how to be an artist. >> what's the difference? >> the difference is, you know, i have talent, i can sing, i can rap, i can play an instrument, i can write songs. an artist creates art with those things. you know, you can do and then you can create art. i learned how to kind of marry my sounds. i had so many weird styles. i was shy and insecure. i didn't know when i was better at. you don't have to be better at

either or any of them. you have to be yourself. >> he gave you that? >> gave to me, yeah. >> that's what people like about you because you are so uniquely yourself. anthony's daughter, i have to tell you tv audience, olivia, who never comes to "cbs this morning," came this morning because she wanted to see lizzo. i said, what is it, olivia, about her. she said because you were unapologetically yourself. which leads me to the lakers game -- >> oh, my god. >> which leads me to the lakers game. the people are talking about you. so i want to know -- i was having a conversation with my friend wendy this morning who said, listen, she's an entertainer, she's always on. that's just -- that's just her personality. she's a performer. other people say, okay, lizzo, we get it, you're proud of your body positivity. but you're at the game with your butt hanging out. what is your response to that? you've heard some the flack that you've been getting about it. >> not really. >> okay. let me tell you -- >> i'm being my own positive --

>> you don't take it all in? >> well, it's their opinion. so i mean, it's not for me to really ingest. it's for them to express and for me to choose to listen to or not. >> or not. >> you know -- >> was that a spontaneous moment for you? >> yeah. it absolutely was. i think no one would have ever saw what i was wearing like the back of it if i didn't get up and dance. and the lakers girls came up and said, we're so excited that you're here. we want to perform one of your songs for you. and i remember, i was sitting there with my manager and my friend, they were like, you should get up and dance. they're doing this for you. i was like, "all right." i got up and did what i always do. anybody who knows me knows this is how i've always been. this is how i've always liked to dress. and it took me a long time -- >> did you forget that your butt was out? when you got up -- >> well, i -- i had on layers down there. so my -- it wasn't just, you know, flesh to see. >> okay. >> you know, a lot of -- contrary to popular belief. but yeah. it was out. >> yeah.

yeah. >> out. >> you've talked about -- just like -- >> you're okay with it being out. >> i'm -- of course. you know -- >> she did it. >> you know how long it took me to fall in love with this body? my butt was my least favorite thing about myself. i learned to love it. and that was the thing everybody can't stop talking about. >> people saying you should be a role model, are you being a role model even in that moment. >> be you, do you. don't let anybody steal your joy. especially not the internet. >> have you enjoyed the success? did i hear -- there are periods of times you have been depressed. >> yes. i wouldn't be human if i didn't have times where the balance, where the highs and the lows kind of happen. >> yeah. >> i accept that. i think fame is a little hard to take for me. it was never my plan. >> yeah. >> i love being successful, and i love playing music and making money. >> fame is a different animal, it is. >> yeah. you can be successful and not famous. >> yeah. >> yes. >> when the fame came -- >> you were successful and famous.
