coney barrett. >> unless something dramatic happens all republicans will vote yes and all docrats will vote no. louisiana residents are cleaning up again in the wake of hurricane della. >> parts of the southeast are bracing for dangerous amounts of rain. >> can't take no more. can't take. a deadly shooting during a protest in downtown denver. police say a 30-year-old shot and killed a protester. >> all that. >> oh, no, oh, no. >> dallas cowboys dak prescott suffers a gruesome leg injury. >> and all that matters. >> any more questions about nadal and roland garros? >> rafael nadal made history tying roger federer for the number of all time grand slam wins. final seconds here in this nba season. that's it. it's over. the lakers conquer the bubble.

and banner number 17 will soon hang in the rafters. >> we found a way to play through a pandemic. and after three months, one team has emerged victorious. the los angeles lakers are the nba's 2019-20 champions. >> this morning's eye opener is presented by progressive. making it easy to bundle insurance. >> most people i know are very happy for the lakers. myself included. they reacted like little boys. magic johnson told us earlier this week it is going to happen. it seems preor daned to me given what the lakers have been through starting with kobe bryant's death in january leading up to playing in a bubble. it is well deserved. >> a lot of people i know are happy. >> miami might beg to differ. >> maybe not people in miami. >> i get what you are seeing.

and braj facetiming his mom -- one of my favorite moments. >> yeah. >> welcome to "cbs this morning" as you wake up in the west, i know you are happen in l.a. country, but nominations are under way on a new supreme court nomination that could set the high court on a new path. sabb was nominated to succeed ruth bader ginsburg. if barrett is confirmed it would expand the court's conservative majority 6-3. >> that matters because there are a number of big issues on the line from the affordable care act to abortion rights. nancy cord he is is on the hill following all of it. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. at the start of this hearing the judiciary hear lindsey graham said it is going to be a long hearing. he is right. even before we hear from amy coney barrett we are listening to opening same from all 22 senators on the hearing with democrats expressing outrage that this hearing is happening

at all. >> bottom line here is that the senate is doing its duty constitutionally. >> reporter: today's hearing will be the first real test of the gop strategy to fast track the nomination of george amy coney barrett weeks before the election. >> simply put, i believe we should not be moving forward on this nomination, not until the election has ended and the next president has taken office. >> reporter: the 48-year-old federal appeals court judge and notre dame law professor would be the first mother of school-aged children to sit on the court. in her opening statement today, judge barrett will say the late conservative justice antonin scalia inspired her philosophy that a judge must apply the law as written, not as the judge wishes it were. >> she knows what it is to be a judge. and that is to cloak your personal preferences. >> reporter: democrats will argue that judge barrett is being rushed onto the court in time to help strike down

obamacare with a crucial case coming next month. in 2017, barrett published a journal article criticizing the rulings that upheld the affordable care act. >> a vote for judge barrett is very simple. it's a vote to take health care away from 20 million americans. >> reporter: in a new letter to the justice department, senate democrats raise concerns over judge barrett's candor citing omissions from her original disclosure forms, including an anti-abortion advertisement she signed in 2013. barrett later submitted the advertisement to the senate. president trump nominated barrett as a white house event that has now been linked to several cases of coronavirus, including two gop senators who sit on the committee. vice presidential nominee kamala harris who also sits on the committee says she will attend remotely because republicans refused to put covid testing procedures in place. some democrats argue that if republicans manage to seat a

supreme court nominee this close to the election that they should respond by adding seats to the supreme court if they win the senate and the white house. former vice president joe biden, the democratic nominee, has been asked repeatedly whether he favors this plan. and he keeps saying, tony, that he will reveal his view after the election. >> but he has spoken out against it in the past. when the confirmation hearing for judge barrett begins cbs news will bring it to you in a special report. we expect to be that happening at 9:00 a.m. eastern, 8:central. president trump will attend a political event in florida following a each at the white house on saturday where he spoke from a balcony. he spent the weekend claiming he tested negative and he is now immune from the coronavirus even though neither assertion can be confirmed by his doctors. he is now also in a new dispute

with dr. anthony fauci over the president's health. >> reporter: president trump made more claims about his health over the weekend including on a call the supporters sunday. >> i have been tested totally negative. i am going to be out in florida tomorrow working very hard. because this is an election we have to win. >> reporter: neither the white house nor the president's doctors confirmed the president has in fact tested negative for covid. >> the word immunity means something, having, really, a protective glow. >> reporter: earlier in the day the president said he has not only beat ten virus but claims he is also now immune. >> it looks like i'm immune for i don't know maybe a long time, it could be a short time. maybe a lifetime. nobody really knows. but i'm immune. so the president is in very good shape. >> reporter: but it's not yet known if people who recover from the virus are actually immune or for how long. when the president tweeted season saying he can't get or

give the virus twitter flagged his tweet for spreading misleading and potentially harmful information about covid-19. president trump's physician dr. sean conley released this memo season night saying the president is no longer considered a transmission risk to others and there is no longer evidence of actively replicating virus. that was the president's ticket to resume campaigning as polls in several states show he is trailing joe biden. >> president trump tackled the virus head on. >> reporter: the trump campaign is being criticized for a new ad in which drouch is claimed to be praise him for his handling of the virus. dr. fauci said i have never publicly endorsed any political candidate. the comments were taken out of context. president trump tweeted these are fauci's own words. but fauci was actually talking

about the white house coronavirus task force. never mentioned donald trump. president trump and former vice president joe biden were supposed to be meeting this wednesday for the second presidential debate. but it was canceled. both presidents now plan to do their own separate town halls on that night. >> our own david eggelston joins us to discuss some of the things we heard in that report. first what is a protective glow? number one. number two, the president claims he is immune and can no lot i think get the virus. address those two thing, protective glow, and is he immune? >> protective glow? i have never seen it. your body has two ways of making you immune. antibodies and t cells. the tests we have now look for the presence of antibodies, not

neutral antibodies which actually give you immunity. so there is no test for antibody immunity at the time. and the t cell test -- we don't know that the president got that doesn't. that treatment he got of monoclonal antibody cocktail did work, will work in three or four weeks in terms of protecting an individual we think from the virus. again, that haven't been proven in clinical trials. he probably has some immunity. how long it will last, i don't know. but it is difficult the say definitively, i have immunity. >> there has been a case of reinfection reported. what does that say to you in this country? >> now there are many cases of reinfection in the country. this is a very well done documented case that's published. but it is critical that immunity lasts for a certain period of time. and we don't yet have a test to know how long that is in an individual.

the hope is is that a vaccine will last for years. when you have the virus, we think you have several months of protection in general across the population. some people are shorter. some are longer. but the hope is much longer with the vaccine. >> the other thing that's confusing for a lot of people, the president said he tested negative. the white house doctor is not saying that. the words he's using is the president is no longer considered a transmission risk to others. is there a confusion between the two statements? >> as it was written as such, one assumes that there may be a positive test. realize that after covid-19 when you are not infectious, you can still test positive because the test looks for about 30 letters or 30,000 that the test is detecting. it is impossible to know whether a person is infectious or to the with the current test.

we still need better testing in the country. now the louisiana which is struggling to recover after hurricane delta barrelled through the state over the weekend. the state saw heavy flooding on roadways and in neighborhoods along with high winds and widespread destruction about seven weeks after being slammed by hurricane laura. homes have been destroyed and hundreds of thousands are still without power. david begnaud is in south louisiana and is in lake charles as we speak. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. welcome to louisiana. this is a car underneath this roof which fell on it. this was seven weeks ago after hurricane laura. family moved out, didn't come back. had they come back they would have been in the home when hurricane delta passed through this weekend. in louisiana we love stories. the story is they got pummelled

with back to back hurricanes. a lot of people are living with blue roofs and lot of people are sleeping in trailers in their front yard. from the back of a coast guard surveillance plane we stood on an open ramp belted in for our safety as the devastation below came into focus. this is creole, louisiana on the gulf coast where hurricane delta made land fall friday night with 100-mile-per-hour winds. just north north of here is lake charles. southwest louisiana is known for its oil refineries. but surrounding the refineries as far as the eye can see is that sea of blue -- blue tarps covered damaged homes that were hit by laura seven weeks ago and the delta friday night. >> we have a front bedroom where my parents stay. and the front has three bunk beds where me, my brother and sister stay. >> reporter: five people in the

uncamper. >> and three dogs. >> reporter: this is where the lebow family is living. they moved out of their home after hurricane laura tore off most of the roof seven weeks ago. friday night the plu tarps that were covering the roof were ripped off during hurricane delta. even the home they lived in after turn laura was flipped over during delta. she says she lost their homes when she was 5 and 8 years old. now she is 18. >> we can fix. >> reporter: thinks tracy joseph. she had no damage during hurricane laura seven weeks ago and took in five family members as a result of it. last weekend they evacuated because of hurricane delta. what he they came back they walked into this. >> half of the ceiling is gone. >> reporter: ms. johnson is

waking up half a block away from where we are this morning. she still has a hole in her roof. those people who died from hurricanes delta and laura died from carbon monoxide poisoning because the generators they were using were close to where they were living. if you are using a generator, keep that outside, more than 20 feet away from you because it will kill you and your animals. >> very important advice, david. thank you. covid cases are rising in the u.s. and across the atlantic as well. european countries have reported more than 451,000 new cases in just the past seven days. in some areas, new caseloads are at all-time highs. holly williams reports now on new rules in britain and other nations in response to the latest outbreak. >> reporter: they declared a state of emergency in the spanish capital, madrid, last

week banning non-essential travel in and out of the city. with 7,000 police officers to enforce the new restrictions. italy and poland have made it compulsory to wear a mask in public places. and france has put paris and several other cities on maximum alert forcing bar asks gyms to shut. meanwhile, india has become the second country after the u.s. to record more than 7 million infections. its official death toll is over 100,000. the real figure could be much higher. some experts are warning of pandemic fatigue. but professor robert west, who advises the british government says it's really confusion. you are saying they want to obey the rules but they don't know what the rules are? >> there is confusion about what the rules are. and they definitely want to obey them. there is a myth going around that people are showing less adherence to the rules as they get this concept of fatigue.

actually the evidence in the uk doesn't support that. >> reporter: starting on saturday, authorities in germany's capital, berlin, implemented a nighttime curfew for the first time since the early years of the cold war seven decades ago. >> translator: it's such bad luck said this young man whose birthday party was brought to an early end. >> reporter: here in the united kingdom the prime is expected to announce a new three-tiered alert stimulater on today. but business groups are angry that it could mean more closures and even more lost income. >> a sign of the times it seems. holly williams reporting from london. ahead the end of a very unique nba season. how the lakers and the league are celebrating after a three month coro

hello to it's monday, october 12th, 2020. welcome back to "cbs this morning." i'm gayle king with tony dokoupil and anthony mason. battle over the court nominee. amy coney barrett's testimony starts today. why democrats say health care for many americans is on the line. childhood hunger. our school matters series looks at how the pandemic is disrupting school food programs for tens of millions of kids. aaron sorkin on his historical film about a landmark fight for justice and why it is relevant today. first, here's today's eye

opener at 8:00. senate hearings are under way on a supreme court nomination that could set the high court on a new path. >> each before we hear from judge amy coney barrett today we are listening to opening statements from all 22 senators on the judiciary committee. president trump plans to return to the campaign trail today in florida. he spent the weekend claiming he has tested negative that he's now immune from the coronavirus. president trump and former vice president joe biden were supposed to be meeting thursday for the second presidential debate but that was canceled. both now plan to do their own separate town halls on that late. lebron and the lakers are the nba champions. >> this is now their 17th championship. they are now tied with the celtics for the all-time record. as you might have guessed, thousands of happy lakers fans took to the streets to celebrate last night, and probably early this morning. ♪ we are the champions, my

friend ♪ ♪ and we'll keep on fighting till the end ♪ >> hold your lighters up in the air, that's nathan apodaca. i can't get enough of him. >> i love the lakers jersey. >> last time he did that with cranberry juice he got a lot free. maybe champagne is coming his way now. >> he could turn this into a business. congrats to the lakers. we begin with the highly controversial hearing for supreme court nominee amy coney barrett that's under way this morning. republicans want to put her on the high court before the election, which would give conservatives a 6-3 majority. democrats have few options to prevent that from happening but they will argue that confirming her could lead to the end of the affordable care act. the high court is scheduled to hear an obamacare case just after the election. today just barrett and the

22 members of the senate judiciary committee are giving opening statements. that will be followed by questioning of the nominee tomorrow and on wednesday. then on thursday the committee will hear from outside witnesses for and against barrett. the committee is expected to vote next week. meanwhile, today president trump is kicking off an aggressive return to the campaign trail after his doctor cleared him to resume public activity. over the weekend, the president declared he's tested negative for the virus and said several times he was now immune to it. neither of those claims have been echoed by the white house or the president's personal doctor, who only said the president could not currently transmit the virus. >> very careful language. tonight the president will hold a rally in sanford, florida, kicking off four rallies in four days. he will also hold events this week in battleground states of pennsylvania, iowa, and north carolina. cbs news's major garrett joins us now.

good morning. >> good morning. >> vice president joe biden has had a steady or widening lead in the national polls but of course what matters is the battleground tracker polls we have been watching. what is the president's streaming for making up ground in those states. >> reporter: make up ground by making up for lost time if that's possible. it might not be. the president wants to get out and have rallies but his health is a persistent concern. those close to the president tell me he wants to do more than one rally a day but because of the fatigue associated with the coronavirus he is only going to do one. that's limited. they have to keep a close eye on his ability to carry out a rally and still feel good on the other side of it. this about what he is giving up. there is no debate on thursday. no rally will drawn audience like that or the contrast he could draw if it were to be an effective debate. ance against joe biden.

that's what he is giving up. he needs to replace it with rallies. very, very hard to do. >> clearly in 2016 he made up that ground. comparatively speaking, is the campaign in better or worse shape than it was against hillary clinton in 2016? >> there are many analysts who look at the race and don't believe it is as close as the polls indicate, which is not that close at all. here's why. this is ott an open seat race with a changer from the outside of american politics like donald trump was in 2016. what donald trump did in the closing days of the 2016 race, i was there, not only did he do four or five rallies a day, he also won the hearts and minds of undecided voters. historically late deciders simply do not break for an incumbent president, especially one who is trailing. that's where president trump finds himself now. >> donald trump did well with seniors in 2016, now, according to polls, he is trailing badly. is his message on covid and his own experience with the virus helping or hurting?

>> to be determined. there is certainly ample evidence in the polls and the shrinkage of support ung among seniors it is hurting, it is a big problem and continues to be a problem. that's why these heroic words said about "i'm immune". there is an evidence to create if not a super human quality with president trump something that's larger than most people suffering from covid-19. of course he got the best treatment unavailable to most american. that also is a problem. the pandemic is the president's biggest rival. as long as that's thedom month theme it is a problem. >> i want to tuck in one question about the supreme court. we constantly hear from voters who say they don't like x, y, or z about president trump but they value who he puts on the supreme court. with amy coney barrett's hearings ahead how is that likely to impact the race. >> this confirmation hearing and

the attendant battle will remind those voters why it is good to have a senate republican majority. things like this can happen. it also reminds democrats what happens when you have a senate republican majority. the democrats i believe, and the polls indicate this are going to be more fired up watching this because angry is always more fired up than satisfied. >> that's life. major, thank you very much. we appreciate it. tens of millions of american children rely on their schools for food, but with remote learning many are not getting the meals they need. ahead, what can be d

in o special series school matters, we're looking at a struggle millions of parents face, how to afford food for their children. during the summer the census bureau said kids in up to 13 million households did not have enough food to eat, and less than 20% of children who qualified for free and reduced lunch got the meals they needed. nan nancy cord nancy cordes looks at why it's been so difficult to keep those nutrition programs running at full capacity during remote learning. >> good morning, anthony. here's another eye opening number for you from one study that found that when schools went to remote learning in the spring, they served nearly 400 million fewer meals than they had the previous school year and with so many schools still engaged in distance learning this fall, there is a real concern among nutrition officers

from coast to coast that the 30 million kids who rely on school lunches, some of them might be going hungry. >> in cincinnati, ohio, 85% of students qualify for food assistance even before the pandemic hit. >> hey there, kiddos. how are you? >> reporter: when the schools shut down, officials made sure no student lived more than a mile from a pickup site like this one. but still, the city served just 10% of the meals it did when schools were open. >> i don't know what we would have done without it. >> reporter: ashlee o'neil runs a food truck with her husband. the mom of two worries about sending her daughters back to school in person starting this week. >> anxiety is high. we don't really know what to expect. i don't have a 9:00 to 5:00 where i absolutely have to be there, and for the people that do have that, i'm sure they're freaking out right now. >> reporter: 23.4 million families nationwide have lost income due to the pandemic.

many children qualifying for the national school lunch program for the first time because their family is suddenly making less than about $48,000 a year. community groups have stepped in to help, but schools remain a major source of food for children, and 80% of schools report serving fewer meals after they shut down last spring. >> a lot of our families are in a new position of unemployment. this is new for them not to be able to go out and purchase food. >> jessica shelly is cincinnati's director of student dining services. she has relied on waivers from the department of agriculture to distribute food regardless of whether families have formally been approved for benefits. >> i think there might be students in the district that aren't getting the nutrition they need each day, and that's why it's so important that meal boxes and meals are available for all students so there is no stigma attached to getting a school meal and that all

families can feel like they can come and get the nutrition they need. >> reporter: in late august, agriculture secretary sonny perdue told lawmakers that lawing schools to feed all children for free was beyond his agency's authority. less than two weeks later, perdue reversed course extending the summer meals program through the end of december. and last month congressman bobby scott helped secure funding for the program to continue until the end of the school year. >> don't have to go to a specific site. you don't have to show that you're qualified for a free meal or reduced price meal or a full-priced meal. you can just get your meal. there's already significant childhood hunger going on in america today. we can avoid this. we can minimize it if we fund these programs appropriately. >> at this point it's crucial. >> reporter: ryan lopez was laid off in march. >> how many kids do you have? >> three. >> three. >> reporter: he says free school meals have removed a major

burden on his budget, which is still recovering from the expiration of federal unemployment benefits. >> i went from making over, you know, $1,500 a week to, you know, now i'm just over $400 a week. there's no longevity to any of these plans. it just seems like next week we'll figure it out. next week we'll figure it out. >> reporter: and here's another problem, many nutrition programs rely on meal delivery as a source of revenue, and now that they are serving far fewer meals, they are also facing budget shortfalls. gayle, listen to this, cincinnati alone is losing more than $1 million a month. >> boy, nancy, the numbers are really hard to hear. thank you so much. you know, what ryan lopez said i think was very striking. we're just trying to figure it out, figure it out, figure it out. you know, the effects of covid, we don't even think about the ripple effect that pervades many facets of your life. >> the financial effect, the emotional effect of not knowing.

>> the emotional effect is what i think about. >> week to week how you're going to get. >> ask the stuff we take for granted. >> never thinking you're going to be a family in that situation. >> exactly. >> because of this virus, you are. >> and no end in sight as we sit here right now. it's heartbreaking. ahead with amazon's annual prime day that's about to start, we're going to find out how this pandemic is reshaping this massive online shopping event. you're watching "cbs this morning."

editor with our partners at cnet. he joins us with how prime day is different this year. good morning, good to see you. this feels so awkward to me. we just did a story with nancy cordes where people are literally trying to figure out where i get my next meal and paycheck. then we go to amazon prime where people can get discounts on food, fashion goods, all of that good stuff too. we're dealing with two realities here. it is different this year, even for amazon prime. >> it's very different for amazon prime because we're used to this amazon invented holiday that somehow has become a thing happening over the summer skprk then later on you come back in the fall and it's like holiday season and black friday and everything. for a variety of reasons including, you know, the difficulty shipping products and receiving products, amazon moved it to later in the year. they finally said, oh, okay, mid-october. so what you really have now is this holiday season sort of kicks off with this now, and then runs through black friday and the rest of the holiday season that's just sort of one big, you know, giant two and a

half month sale season. which may burn people out frankly. >> a lot of kids are learning remotely these days, i would think you're looking at computers, laptops, those kinds of things for deals? >> that's one of the most popular, you know, categories over the last several months especially since every kid who's remote learning needs their own device now, and everybody's working from home. they all need their own device. you can't have a shared family computer anymore really. whenever you see a $500 decent laptop or a good tablet, they sell out quickly. i think on prime day starting tomorrow you will see a big emphasis on these lower cost laptops, chrome books which are great for students and hopefully they'll be able to keep them in stock. previously when there have been some good deals, you have to run in and snatch them up quickly. >> kitchen and home goods, too? >> that's always really popular on prime day in previous years, and especially as now it's part of the holiday shopping season and people are also, you know, staying home and doing more

things at home, i would definitely expect interest in things like instant pots and the kitchen aid mixers or even, you know, like those little ninja blenders, you know, things that run from less expensive to fancier and more expensive and maybe it's a holiday gift for yourself and someone else. >> and realistically, dan, how much shopping are people doing? i'm still struck by nancy's report. it reminds me of the day my dad died. i was very upset, i looked at the car next to me the kids singing, laughing and joking, somebody said to me the day you're having your worst day somebody's having their best day. both are true. how much shopping are people really doing these days? >> i mean, that really is the question that this holiday season is going to haanswer. are people going to hold back because they're concerned about finances, because they don't have a job, because they're worried about having a job in the future or are people going to say, well, this is the time when things are usually on sale. i'll stock up for things now. or maybe they'll say i'll get the minimum amount of things i

think i need to get to cover the holiday season now or i'll wait for black friday. >> amazon has been a big help for a lot of people. i see you've embraced the david letterman ok. this is a kpix 5 news morning update. good monday morning. it is 8:25. pandemic safety protocols may have been a factor in the death of a san francisco firefighter for distancing purposes. only four firefighters instead of the usual eight took part in last wednesday's pump drill. a woman is dead after she fell into lake tahoe and drowned . the coast guard says she was not wearing a life jacket when she fell off a rented boat

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it is now time to bring you some of the stories that are talk of the table this morning, and i'm going to say anthony goes first. >> i'll start this off. i want to note the passing of long-time tv game show host tom kennedy. >> name that tune. and now the star of our show, tom kennedy! >> hello there. >> we learned yesterday kennedy died in california at age 93. he's best known for leading "name that tune" from 1974 to 1981. it was one of more than a dozen shows that he hosted including split second, to say the least,

password plus, you don't say. that's the show i remember as a kid, and break the bank. kennedy also did some acting having guest roles on that girl, the ghost in mrs. muir. he was the brother of another game show host, jack nars, whenever i was home sick from school, and i could watch the game shows, which i loved to do, he was one of these professional genial guys. >> i've got this image of you holding the thermometer against the stove when mom's at work. >> exactly. >> i've got a fever. >> i would stay home and watch marathon of game shows. i used to run down to the studios when i was out from school, you could get free tickets in the morning to watch the game shows live. >> i didn't mean t >> all right, gayle, what do you got? >> mine is shaquille o'neal. the nba legend. >> i have a confession, you know i always like being honest on my

podcasts. i've never voted before, america, but now i'm doing all these voting campaigns and you know one thing i never like to do is be a hypocrite. in other words, america, i've voted for the first time, and it feels good. >> it does feel good. the 48-year-old hall of famer described filling out an absentee ballot for the 2020 election. he did not say who he voted for. he encourages people to continue to go out to vote. he has no excuse for not voting earlier but credited being more involved in helping officials get elected. i think it was surprising to hear, but i'm really glad he's saying it. i think it will now encourage other people. you would be surprised how many haven't. >> i give him a lot of credit. you'd be surprised of how many people just like that that don't want to say it. but he came out and said it and it's kbasicalbasically encourag to do it. >> we are not first when it comes to participation. lots of people do not vote.

>> i am talking about what could be my two favorite new social science researchers who have a new study out which they attempt to confirm -- they scrutinize a long standing idea in psychology. that's the idea that couples start to look the same the longer they're together. we've all observed it. >> yes. >> like people and their dog. >> researchers at stanford compiled a database to test it. photos from more than 500 couples, some taken within two years of getting married and then decades later, and they checked to see, and they found, drum roll, please. no evidence, no evidence that couples look more alike as time passes. >> i wasn't expecting that ending. i wasn't expecting that ending. but they do say there is evidence that you are likely to marry somebody who looks like you at the onset, so couples do look more alike than perfect strangers in the examinations here. i love these are two restroearcs at stanford. their next is whether you can

guess a person's name based on what they look like. >> you don't end up looking more like your spouse but you do end up looking more like your pet. >> i don't have the pet research handy. >> does it say too you're attracted to people who have similar philosophies. people who can make you laugh. >> in the same way you look for someone with a similar perm personality and values, you do actually look like someone who likes like you as well. >> what's the male version of gayle king? >> consider the possibilities. >> i don't know if i want to do that. i don't want to be with somebody that looks like me. >> while we're thinking about that, think about this, the 1960s were a turbulent time for our country as president johnson escalated u.s. military involvement in vietnam, protests against the war grew. aaron sorkin focuses on this period in his latest project "the trial of the chicago 7." he wrote and directed the film. it follows the clashes between

antiwar protesters and police at the 1968 democratic national convention. seven protest organizers were charged with expertise. their trial is considered one of the most notorious in u.s. history. >> we've heard testimony from 27 witnesses under oath that say you hoped for a confrontation with the police that your plans for the convention were designed specifically to draw the police into a confrontation. >> well, if i'd known it was going to be the first which might have came true, i would have aimed a lot higher. >> it's a yes or no question. when you came to chicago, were you hoping for a confrontation with the police? i'm concerned you have to think about it. >> and aaron sorkin joins us now. this takes place in 1968, '69, but you really wanted this to be a contemporary film? >> that's right.

i wanted it to be about today, and it is. we didn't realize just how much it was going to be about today until we got to today, but i didn't want it to be an exercise of nostalgia or a history lesson. i wanted to put as little between the film and the audience as possible. >> but this project actually started, what, 14 years ago on a saturday when you went to steven spielberg's house in pacific palisades? >> that's right. in 2006 on a saturday morning, i was asked to come to steven spielberg's house, which i should point out is uncommon. pi don't hang out with steven spielberg, and he said that he wanted to make a movie about the riots in chicago in 1968 and the conspiracy trial that followed. >> and you actually knew nothing about the chicago seven? >> no, i really didn't. i had said to steven that sounds great. count me in, and then immediately called my father and asked him what steven had been

talking about, the riots in chicago. i had a vague sense that there had been some civil unrest at the democratic convention. >> you've said that directing chicago 7 was one of the most challenging things you've ever done. >> it was incredibly challenging. i had a lot of help from the cast of course and a great team of designers. but first of all, writing is challenging for me. writing a screen play. directing is new to me. >> you talk about how challenging writing can be for you. i've read that you can be very animated when you're writing? >> yeah. if anybody saw me writing, they would have me locked up. i'm very physical. i'm talking out loud. i'm playing all the parts. i'm jumping up and down from my desk. i've -- without really realizing i was doing it, i've walked like blocks away from my office while i was talking to myself, but those are the great moments. those are like when you've got

it, and it's working. those are the really great moments. the bad moments are when you're frozen in front of a blank screen with a flashing cursor. >> one of the most powerful moments in the film is when bobby seal ends up in shackles basically in the courtroom. that's not an exaggeration, is it? >> no. nothing in the film is an exaggeration. all of this happened, but surely the most terrible moment of the trial is when as you said bobby seal is taken away, roughed up by some u.s. marshals, shackled, a gag put in his mouth, sort of tape around the gag. he's bound and gagged in an american courtroom. >> you recently reunited with the original cast of "the west wing" to benefit michelle obama's voter turnout initiative. what was it like collaborating with them again? >> that was fantastic. it is a benefit for when we all

vote which is a nonpartisan, nonprofit organization, get out the vote group. it combats voter suppression. what we did was we took an episode of "the west wing" and we restaged it as a play, so we are literally doing everything any of us know how to do to get out the vote. >> aaron sorkin, thank you very much. "the trial of the chicago 7" is playing in select theaters now and can be streamed on netflix october 16th. also really looking forward to that west wing reunion. thanks again jts ahead, meet a 12-year-old genius who is the youngest kid at his college. that's right. he's in college. how he proposition 16 takes on discrimination.
