>> and up next. have a treat day. good morning to you, our viewers in the west. it's went, hump day, october 28th. welcome to cbs "this morning." i'm gayle king with anthony mason and tony dokoupil. we are down to the wire in campaign 2020. both candidates are pushing hard with starkly different responses to the coronavirus. how this pandemic is playing into their strategies with just six days to go. a surge of suffering in the midwest. we're tracking the virus outbreaks to show you where the spike is worse and why. plus a rare look at the federal effort to stop the spread in our road to a vaccine series. the breonna taylor grand jurors speak out in an exclusive interview. two of the jury members say they were never given the opportunity to consider murder or manslaughter charges for the officers involved. and the los angeles dodgers

are world series champions, but not without a covid controversy. we'll talk with pitcher clayton kershaw on how the team triumphed during a challenging season. >> did we think clayton went to bed? we'll find out. but first -- here's today's "eye opener," it's your world in 90 seconds. >> the dodgers are one out away. >> called strike three! the dodgers win, finally! >> over the last 32 years, the dodgers have knocked at the door a few times. this year they kicked it in. president trump making the appeal once again to suburban women. >> your husbands, they want to get back to work. right? they want to get back to work. we're getting your husbands back to work. wildfires continuing to burn across southern california forcing thousands to flee their homes. >> it's chaos for about 20, 30 minutes because you're in a panic. >> i'm physically and mentally tired. the gulf coast bracing for another storm as zeta heads

towards louisiana. >> no matter how fatigued it does not tire us. >> the national guard was deployed to philadelphia. violent demonstrations broke out last night over a deadly police shooting. >> all that -- >> listen closely. >> they want you to rocky the vote. >> it's got a lot of cameos. ♪ >> -- and all that matters -- [ cheers and applause ] >> between the dodgers and the lakers, this has probably been the biggest month ever for l.a. sports fans, but health officials say the recent spike in covid cases here was due in part to the big public celebrations after the lakers won. but, hey, you know what? you have to be willing to die for your team. it's as simple as that. >> on cbs "this morning." >> the wait is over! the dodgers are the champions of 2020 in a year like no other, where joy has been so hard to come by.

tonight, tears of joy. let 'em flow! >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" is presented by progressive, making it easy to bundle insurance. >> we were all trying to figure out what is the crying man saying? we think he's saying, "my heart is pumping so hard!" they're so excited and so happy. they're still celebrating there. >> they should be. it's been a long time, a long time. >> it's very, very satisfying. welcome to cbs "this morning." we've got a lot of news to get to, but you know we have to begin with that celebration in los angeles. the dodgers first world series win in 32 years in a year that was clouded by the coronavirus pandemic. >> yeah. we're going to talk about the win but we also have to talk about the fact that justin turner, one of the dodgers' star players, was diagnosed with the coronavirus during the game, in the eighth inning. they pulled him from the field. jamie yuccas is outside dodgers

stadium this morning. jamie, not where they played. they were in nexz, but good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you, tony. because of the virus not a single game of the series was played here. instead the teams met at a neutral site in arlington, texas, as part of the mlb strategy to create a covid bubble. that didn't stop turner's positive diagnosis, and it also didn't stop the dodgers from rolling to their first world series title in decades. >> strike three. dodgers have won it all in 2020! >> reporter: it was a long time coming, after back-to-back world series losses in 2017 and 2018, the dodgers finally came out on top. >> the postseason, and i just came to be a part of it and just happy i can contribute. >> reporter: that's dodgers' right fielder, mookie betts, whose home run in the eighth inning cemented the team's lead en route to victory. >> this is our year! we said it.

[ cheers and applause ] this is our year! >> reporter: but the pandemic also left its mark. >> we learned during the game that justin was a positive. he was immediately isolated to prevent spread. >> reporter: the coronavirus crashed the lineup tuesday, forcing dodgers third baseman, justin turner, out after the seventh inning when his test results came back positive. he later tweeted. i feel great. no symptoms at all, and he eventually returned to the field where he removed his mask to take a team photo. >> we did it, l.a.! we did it l.a.! yes! >> reporter: in los angeles, enthusiastic fans were out in droves to celebrate the world series title. many without masks on. [ cheers and applause ] it's a concern for county health officials who say that similar gatherings to celebrate the l.a. lakers nba finals win earlier this month likely contributed to a spike in covid cases. >> got him.

they've done it. >> reporter: it's the dodgers' first world series victory since 1988. that's the year dodgers pitcher and newly crowned champion, clayton kershaw, was born. >> so very thankful that we get to be on the team that is bringing back a world series to the dodger fans after 32 years. i couldn't ask for anything more. it's incredible. >> reporter: last night's win marks the dodgers seventh world series title as a franchise. vin scully, retired hall of fame broadcaster called the previous six. he tweeted this message. congratulations, what a year, what a season, what a team. gayle. >> i know, what a night. jamie, it looks like you've got a little dodger blue action going on. thank you so much. >> reporter: just a little. >> yeah. just a tad. in the next hour we're excited about this, because we get to talk to the dodgers pitcher, clayton kershaw, about their big, big win and the impact of the coronavirus. that's in our next hour. >> waited a long time. now to campaign 2020 and the

final push by president trump and joe biden to rally support with just six days to go before election day. the two candidates and their running mates held ten events yesterday in seven states, although with very different styles due to the coronavirus. as ed o'keefe reports, the biden strategy includes states like georgia, that democrats haven't won in decades. >> now, nebraska we know is looking great. okay? >> reporter: campaigning in nebraska late tuesday, president trump slammed his opponent. >> if biden wins, he will do bad things. by the way, he's not a good guy, just so you understand. >> reporter: earlier, former vice president joe biden spent tuesday right rallying supporters in atlanta, making his first stop in georgia as the democratic nominee. >> i'll work as hard for those who don't support me as those who do. that's the job of the president, a duty to care for everyone. >> reporter: biden is currently tied with the president in

georgia, and if he were to win there, had would be the first democrat to do so since 1992. >> something is happening in georgia and across america. [ cheers and applause ] people of different races, backgrounds, democrats, republicans, independents, they're coming together. >> reporter: also on the campaign trail, first lady melania trump who visited pennsylvania for her first solo campaign appearance this year and defended her husband's social media habits. >> i do not always agree what the way he says things, but it is important to him that he speaks directly to the people he serves. [ applause ] >> reporter: already an estimated 71 million americans have voted early, shattering previous records. early indications are that more of the early voters casting their ballots by mail are democrats, while more republicans vote early in person. >> it doesn't have to start on tuesday. it can start earlier, early voting. you want to be there.

>> reporter: mr. trump also complained that the election has focused too much on his response to the pandemic. >> covid. you turn on the news, covid, covid. >> reporter: that caught the attention of his predecessor. >> covid, covid, covid he's complaining. he's jealous of covid's media coverage. >> reporter: former president barack obama campaigning in orlando. >> if he had been focused on covid from the beginning, cases wouldn't be reaching new record highs across the country this week. >> reporter: biden is home today in delaware, but his campaign says he'll be getting a briefing on the pandemic from public health officials and give remarks on the federal response to the coronavirus. the president, meanwhile, plans to visit ten states in the closing days of the campaign and his team says he plans 11 in-person rallies in the 48 hours leading up to election day. tony. >> very busy schedule, ed. thank you very much. unfortunately, we do have to talk about the coronavirus because the u.s. just recorded its worst week for new cases since this pandemic began. more than half a million new

covid infections. numbers are rising in 43 states and roughly one-third of all new cases are coming from the midwest. our lead national correspondent, david begnaud, is in minneapolis. david, officials in that part of the country are sounding a lot more worried these days. >> reporter: they are. it is below freezing here in minnesota and covid-19 hospitalizations are at a record high. in fact, the governor is asking people on both sides of the political spectrum not to attend political rallies leading up to election day. i want to start this morning in wisconsin, the state right next door, where the situation is dire. the state of wisconsin set new records for cases, hospitalizations and deaths yesterday, and now a fifth patient is being treated at a field hospital set up outside of milwaukee. across the midwest, seven states are reporting a record number of coronavirus hospitalizations. illinois is now averaging more

new coronavirus cases per day than at any other point in the pandemic, and in chicago, the daily increase in coronavirus-related hospitalizations has more than doubled since october began. so the governor is now shutting down all indoor dining, starting this friday. >> chicago seemed to have this under control than other regions of illinois but that's no longer the case. >> reporter: there are stories of hope. we want you to hear them. meet carmen lerma, 52 years old, a community leader from milwaukee. she was hospitalized with coronavirus in july. she had passed out at home. she said when she woke up she was in the hospital and she was already hooked up to breathing machines. >> they said to me, you know, you're lucky you have a guardian angel watching over you, because your body oxygen was at 31% when you got here. that is to be brain dead or in a coma. >> reporter: carmen spent 45 days on a ventilator in the icu.

she only had minor underlying conditions like high blood pressure, but the virus permanently damaged her lungs. the doctors told her she needed a double lung transplant, and just last week carmen had a successful operation, but she has a long road to recovery. >> you think this is a joke. you think, oh, it's just like the virus, it's like the flu. no. it's not like the flu. it doesn't feel like the flu. i was pretty healthy. i was pretty healthy and look at me. >> reporter: you know, contact tracing works. carmen got a call from her local health department saying she had been exposed to someone who had the virus so she should quarantine and get tested and right around then she started feeling sick. quick, news on the vaccine trial. pfizer says they're not going to have the results of their vaccine trial before the election, but they are still expecting to ask the fda for an emergency use authorization order to get it into use by the end of november. gayle.

>> david, system thinking about carmen's story. she's very lucky. thank you very much. the family of a black man killed by police in philadelphia is asking for calm after a second night of violence. hundreds of protesters marched last night, and some of them confronted officers. other people looted stores around the city. 27-year-old walter wallace jr. was shot on monday as he walked toward a pair of officers allegedly carrying a knife. a family lawyer says the family had called for an ambulance to help wallace who had mental health issues. we saw that video yesterday that was sad and disturbing to watch. clearly he had something. the family said it was a dinner knife. if you're an officer, you count know what it is, but the mother was so desperate. what struck me was the desperation of this woman trying to stop her son -- >> and then the sorrow. >> and the grief. >> and watch her son being shot. >> so many questions in that case. >> all right. firefighters in southern california's orange county are getting some help from nature as they battle two huge wildfires. powerful winds that drove the

flames on monday and tuesday have calmed down. crews worked overnight to control the fires that have damaged ten homes and threatened thousands of others. tens of thousands of people have had to evacuate. california's governor says there were at least 42 new fires over fires over an. a 24-hour span. meanwhile new orleans is getting ready for a possible direct hit from hurricane zeta tonight. the storm is gaining strength as it moves north in the gulf of mexico. cbs news meteorologist and climate specialist jeff berardelli is with us. >> you're waking up to a cat 2 coming onshore and those storms cause more damage. the forward motion is fast, moving north-northwest at 17 miles an hour but at the time it makes landfall winds will be 100 miles an hour. this can cause damage, power

outages. the other things we're worried about, gusts over 100 miles an hour and storm surge as well. by the way, the storm will be making landfall probably around 5:00 or 6:00. the worst of it in new orleans, it will pass just east of new orleans. the worst of it is probably around 7:00 or so. so you can see this wind. look at all these strong winds funneling water up and wind into the coast. everything comes together in this part of the bay at that right angle. wind gusts on the eastern side because this is such a fast-moving storm, about 20 miles an hour stronger than the western side. gulfport, biloxi will see wind gusts over 100 miles an hour and storm surge as much as 6 to 9 feet. take this seriously. by the way, this will turn into a snowstorm of sorts for new england as we head towards friday. >> wow, that's interesting. jeff, thank you very much. more trouble on the gulf coast. this morning we look at one of president trump's biggest campaign promises, stopping illegal immigration. in 2015 mr. trump vowed to build a wall along the entire u.s. southern border and said mexico

would pay for it. his goal was to complete more than 500 miles of wall by the end of this year. the actual number turns out to be less than that and the money came from u.s. taxpayers. mireya villarreal road along with the border patrol to see what you paid for and to find out if it's working. >> reporter: border patrol agents in south texas change shifts right around 6:30 in the morning. >> yeah, so they have been waiting for a while. they crossed and are waiting for the right time. >> reporter: a vulnerable moment smugglers try to take advantage of. >> the bridge is there, the wall is here, new and old. >> yes. >> they're still here. >> they're still coming across. >> reporter: in just four hours, our cameras captured dozens of people trying to cross into the united states illegally. we watched as agents used drones, helicopters, dogs, and the new wall to slow the flow.

>> so we're coming through, two behind me right now, three in the brush. >> at this point is it a matter you have to use all of these tools? >> it's not a one solution problem. you need everything. you need more agents, you need border infrastructure, and you need tools and technology to help us close up this gap. >> who called it out? >> omaha. >> reporter: but not everyone survives the long journey. this is the heart-breaking reality agents are dealing with every day. people risking it all to give their families a better life. >> today america's borders are more secure than ever before. >> reporter: president trump has made it his mission since before the election to halt illegal immigration. his administration has allotted nearly $15 billion so far to spend on defending the border. customs and border patrol says that has led to just 371 miles of wall being built along the nearly 2,000-mile border.

however, much of that amounts to replacing existing structures. despite that big price tag border apprehensions peaked last fiscal year totaling nearly 1 million, leaving many to question what they got for all that spending. >> money has been wasted on something that is unnecessary. >> reporter: nayda alvarez pushed back against the government when they tried to take her property. she said it hinges on the outcome of the election. >> i'm going to fight it until the end. i'm going to fight it. even if they built the wall, i'm going to fight it to tear it down. >> reporter: the u.s. supreme court will now have a say in the border wall matter, the justices taking on a case right now challenging the use of president trump's funds, $2.5 billion that went from the pentagon to the construction of this border wall. tomorrow we will take another look at what is happening here along the border and focus on family separation as well as asylum seekers here in the u.s. and mexico.

gayle. >> all right, we'll talk to you tomorrow, thank you. ahead, our exclusive interview with two grand jurors from the breonna taylor case. they tell us why they did not

welcome back to "cbs this morning." we begin this half hour with our exclusive interview with two of the grand jurors in the breonna taylor case and their attorney, kevin glogower. taylor was shot and killed in her home during a police raid back in march. one of the officers at the scene, brett hankison, was fired and charged with wanton endangerment for shooting at the apartment next door. no one was hurt there. but no officers have been charged for taylor's death, and at least one of the officers involved has defended their actions. the jurors told us authorities never presented them with the option to consider indicting officers on more serious charges for taylor's death, which left them feeling frustrated, disgusted and even betrayed. we're not revealing their identities at their request for their safety.

>> they didn't give us the charges up front. when they gave us all of that testimony, over 20 something hours and then to say that these are the only charges that they're coming up with, it's like what did we just sit through? and then to be told that we're not charging them with anything else, to me it was a betrayal. >> so when you all looked and were told the only thing you need to consider is wanton endangerment, did anyone say, hey, are there any other options here? did either of you say that? >> almost the entire room. >> what was the answer that you were given? >> basically in a nutshell they said there were other possible charges that we considered but nothing we could make stick. >> they never gave us the opportunity to deliver anything but to charge hankson. that was it. as a matter of fact when they announced that those were the only charges, there was an uproar in that room. there was several more charges that could have gone forward on all of those officers, or at least the three shooters.

>> why is this so extraordinary, kevin? >> normally the grand jurors are presented with the law and the charges so they can listen to the facts with an open mind and apply those facts to the law, almost as a road map. >> what happened here? >> what happened here was it was done in the complete reverse. >> what stands out to you the most? >> from a legal perspective, it looked like they weren't following the grand jurors and they only wanted the grand jurors to follow them, which is contrary to the actual rule. >> grand juror number one and number two say what prompted them to ultimately speak out was that press conference held by kentucky attorney general daniel cameron, which they insist falsely represented their position on potential indictments for the officers involved in breonna taylor's death. >> while there are six possible homicide charges under kentucky law, these charges are not applicable to the facts before us because our investigation showed and the grand jury agreed

that mattingly and cosgrove were justified in their return of deadly fire. >> when he stated that there were six possible murder charges and that the grand jury had agreed that those didn't apply, the first time i heard the word six possible murder charges was in that news conference. >> it wasn't presented to you in the grand jury deliberations? >> no. >> no. >> and personally, when i do something, i take responsibility for it. we had not done that. >> i really felt that this was all cameron. this was up to him. we didn't get a choice in that at all. so i was livid. by the time i heard what he was saying, everything that came out of his mouth, i was saying liar, because we didn't agree to anything. we never met cameron. >> you've never met attorney general cameron? >> no, we never met him. he never discussed anything with us. >> i think many people will be very surprised to hear that they

had no contact with attorney general cameron whatsoever. >> i agree. if you watch the press conference, it seemed clear from the wording that mr. cameron was implying that he played a larger role in the actual presentation. >> is that normally how it works? >> well, the attorney general in kentucky doesn't normally present cases to the grand jury. but i think to answer your question, gayle, generally the highest person in the office would at least come introduce themselves to the grand jurors. >> do either of you think there was enough evidence to present charges of murder, attempted murder, manslaughter? >> yes, i think there was. just all of the evidence there, as we were listening to it, we were sure this was leading up to something like that. >> among the evidence the grand jury heard from the night of the raid was the 911 call from breonna taylor's boyfriend, kenneth walker. he said he fired a warning shot on who he thought were

intruders. officers returned fire with 32 bullets. >> 911, operator, harris, where's the emergency? >> i don't know what is happening. somebody kicked in the door and shot my girlfriend. >> the thing that stood out to me when i was talking to him, he said why would i call 911 if i thought it was the police? >> that resonated with me because he didn't know who it was that was coming in. he had no idea. you could hear the distress. everything about what he said was believable. it made sense all the way through. >> you found him credible? >> yes. >> totally believable. >> did you find the police believable? >> no. >> no. there are too many inconsistencies in their story. i understand that in a situation like that, you may not remember. but i didn't find their testimony credible. >> what was your understanding about what happened that night? >> it was a mess. it didn't seem to me that there was any organization or almost

any leadership in the whole operation. >> from the evidence that i heard, this thing started out downhill to begin with. you don't need seven cops to go up to somebody's door and say we're here to do an investigation at 1:00 in the morning. they kept going downhill from there. it was one mistake right after the other one right after the other one. they covered it up. that's what the evidence that i saw. and i felt like there should have been lots more charges on that. they covered it up. >> now, later this morning, former louisvile officer brett hankison is scheduled to be in court for a pretrial hearing on the wanton endangerment charges that he's facing. we did, by the way, reach out to kentucky attorney general daniel cameron. he did not give us a new statement but last month he told a local fox affiliate if the jurors wanted to make an assessment about different charges, they could have done that. the jurors as you see disagree with that.

jury number one is white, juror number two is black. it was juror number one that was so upset that reached out to attorney kevin glogower because he said i don't know what had, this is so frustrating. >> they were being told they went along with something they did not. >> and they said it took under two minutes to deliberate on the charges because all they had to consider were the wanton endangerment. we'll talk more with them at 8:00 about the toll that it's taking. >> this is just two members of the grand jury, we should say, but they had a very different conclusion. >> but anthony, i did ask do you think other jurors feel this way? they said, look, we can't speak for other jurors but there was an uproar in the room that everybody was unanimous about the decision. >> it's very clear these jurors were not represented in what the attorney general said. >> very interesting. incredible interview. next on "cbs this morning," the mastermind of the alleged cult nxium will likely spend the rest of his life in prison.

in our exclusive interview, two of the g in our exclusive interview, two of the jurors are describing what happened during the hearings. taylor was shot and killed in her home in a police raid in march. no officers have been charged with her death. saying their actions were

justified. jurors one and two said they were only presented with charges of wanton endangerment for shooting into a neighboring apartment. they said they were shocked. they are speaking out now so everyone understands the truth. >> the case was at least for me pretty mentally exhausting and upsetting. >> what did you think after it became the story it became and people started marching in the streets? >> i was hurting. i was upset. i wasn't sleeping. >> my first thought was breonna's mom. i needed her to know the truth. >> i was of the same mindset. >> i need her to know it wasn't us. >> i can tell you are very emotional number one talking about it. >> yes. >> where is that coming from? >> it is hurt.

i cannot imagine how she feels. i could only imagine. again, to what number two is saying, we tried. we were only allowed to decide on what they gave to us. >> is it hard to speak out now because you are going to open up a whole other door and other level of conversation? >> yes and no. doing the right thing is hard. i'm way out of my comfort zone right now. >> grand jurors juone and two sd prosecutors did not give them the option to deliberate on the case in her death. lawyers say the kentucky attorney general misrepresented the findings to the public. >> when the attorney general spoke to the public put it all on the grand jury instead of owning up to whatever decisions

were made in that office. >> it is clear they were blindsided by the attorney general's decision. >> i believe they were blindsided. >> describing breonna taylor's death as a tragedy but not a crime. >> i believe there was some crime to that. >> the way they got a warrant. it was a hodgepodge team that went in there with no coordination. >> can i ask you what you brother think were the police interpretations that night? >> negatively gent. they couldn't even provide a risk assessment. their organization leading up to this was lacking. that's what i mean by that they were negligent. >> number two? >> they were criminal leading up to this. the way they moved forward on including the warrant was

deception. >> what do you hope will come out of speaking up today, number one? >> accountability and being forth right. >> my big thing was making sure breonna's mom knew the city of louisville and in the county, there are good people in that city and county, they stood up and tried to do the right anyone. >> when grand juror number one reached out to you, what did he say specifically and what was your reaction? >> what i got out of it was the service as a grand juror was over and the service as a citizen of kentucky had started. there was a desire to make that record clear and to give clarity to the entire public. strongly about it, both of you. juror number one and juror number two. you decided you don't want your identity shown. why? >> mainly for my family's safety. there is people out there that don't agree with what we're

doing. most people do, but there is a few out there that probably don't, and i just as soon keep it that way. >> do you happen to know or can you say if other jurors feel this way? the way the two of you feel? >> this has been, i can say, definitively about other jurors, but i felt that the uproar at the end of it, i would think that, yes. >> i don't think we are alone in this. >> later this morning, former louisville officer brett hankison is scheduled to be in court for a pretile hearing on wanton endangerment charges he is facing. we wanted you to no know that we reached out to the kentucky attorney general and he did not give us a new statement. last month he told a fox affiliate, quote, if the jurors wanted to make an assessment about different charges, they could have down that. they spent a lot of time. they looked at the evidence. i am always amazed at how seriously people take this process, both of them. they took this as a very -- it mattered to them and they wanted

to get it right and they want people to know this was not their decision. >> you could tell when they talked about breonna taylor's mother they were thinking about the family involved and what this would mean to them. >> they are trying to clarify the record. that's important. is there something more that could happen legally if it turns out that the jurors were not given proper instructions? >> it's interesting. the fbi, of course, is still investigating this case. they would like to see a special prosecutor assigned to it. attorney general daniel kameron -- >> is the one appointed. >> is the one who makes the decision about a special prosecutor. they weren't very hopeful about that. but they would like to see something happen in this case. >> that's called the system. >> yes, it is. tomorrow on "cbs this morning" we will speak with ryan nichols, the president of the police union representing the louisville metro police department. ahead, chrissy teigen going public with the emotional story of the loss of her third child. how she and husband john legend are mourning and her words of support to others. you're watching "cbs this morning."

so private, and she writes this in her letter. she said i was very hesitant -- or john was very hesitant and actually hated it because she asked him to please do it because she said i need this for myself. and neither john or her mother wanted to do it. but she said i cannot express how little i care that you all hate the photos, how little i care that it's something you wouldn't have done. i lived it, i chose to do it, and more than anything, these photos aren't for anyone but the people who lived through it. >> i need to say something here because i lived through this. we lost a child in the same way. the world -- there is no way of dealing with this publicly. it's devastating for everybody who knows through it. and if you're the person who's lost the child, people don't like to talk about it. when they walk up in the street they don't know what to say to you. i am so glad that she's doing this because it just knocks a family to the ground. it's so hard to pick yourself up. the fact that she's putting it

welcome back to "cbs this morning." it's time to bring you some of the stories that are talk of the table this morning. anthony, i know you're up first but i appreciate you sharing the story you just did. tony and i were wondering if you were going to share it. thank you. >> for the people who go through it, they're so lonely after this. the loss is so huge and people don't understand. it's a conversation this country needs to have because it happens and people have nowhere to go. i'm so impressed with what chrissy teigen has done. it's so important. >> a lot of people are. so what are you thinking for your talk of the table? >> well, this pandemic has been hard. you know, i'm a music fan. i also love museums. this pandemic has been hard on both of them and the country music hall of fame will hold an extraordinary digital fund-raiser tonight called big night at the museum. it will feature modern artists

performing on some of the most iconic instruments in the museum's collection. ♪ >> that's miranda lambert playing a custom made guitar. lucinda williams will be johnny cash's customized 35-s guitar and the night's host, country music hall of famer marty stewart, love marty stewart will play bill monroe's 1923 gibson f-5 mandolin and lester flatt's 1950 d-28 guitar. tim mcgraw, brad paisley and ashley will all perform. she is so excited. the fund-raiser hopes to offset nearly $35 million in losses since march for the museum. big night at the museum will air on the country music hall of fame's youtube channel tonight

at 8:00 p.m. central time. >> are you going to be watching? >> i am going to be watching. i love all those folks. it's so cool. i know how excited they are to play those instruments. my talk of the table is related in a way because it's another sign of the times. the pandemic has been tough on museums, tough on concerts, also independent businesses, small businesses, among them bookstores. one of new york city's oldest and most beloved bookstores had to ask for help when sales nosedived because of the pandemic. but here's the good news. book lovers have stepped up. last week the owner tweeted we are ready to fight against all odds to keep the strand alive but cannot do it without book lovers like you. it worked. widen tweeted out this video one day later. take a look. >> i want to say thank you, new york, for today. >> that thank you is in reference to 25,000 plus online orders that poured in over the weekend after the strand put out the sos. there were so many orders that the website actually crashed. they usually only get 300 orders

a day. and the good news is they now expect to survive through the end of the year when they'll be able to re-evaluate their situation. they're struggling like this despite government help because people don't -- aren't able to go to places that they used to and wander through. the strand -- i've lived in new york for 15 years. if you live in new york, you've been there. miles of books. >> that's their ad campaign. and it's really a new york institution. i mean if you love books, you've been there. >> you know it. >> and there were social media posts all over the place. people were heart breaking if we lost the strand. that's a casualty we can't afford. my daughter walked over there like that day when they announced it to go shopping. >> let's see how that will turn out. mine is already done and done. we're talking about the dodgers, world series champs, ending a 32-year drought. fans crowded the streets of los angeles. they go what corona, to celebrate fireworks were set off. drivers were seen doeg doughnuts and people cheered.

we know at least one fan here at "cbs this morning" who was, well, ecstatic over the win. please let this tape play, control room. let it play, let it play, let it play. let it play. let it go, let it go. >> yes! >> that is our producer, wendy mcneill. as you can see, she's a long-time dodgers fan reacting to the dodgers victory. so she sent me this video last night. i'm sure she didn't want me to share it, but i got a big kick out of it. the subject line said, as you can see, i was a tad happy. this is what celebrating your favorite team looks like when you're practicing social distancing, because wendy does have friends, but she's also single. you can see it's okay to have a party by yourself when your team is winning. so you go, wendy mcneill.

as a matter of fact, when they won, the first person i thought of was wendy mcneill because all she talks about is the dodgers. >> i thought about the dodgers fan in bed next to me, katy. i fell asleep and she let me sleep and texted her enthusiasm silently, so i got it in the morning. >> i can see where katy trumps wendy in terms of the dodgers fans. >> wendy has been keeping us posted on the dodgers all through this. where they were, what was going well. >> every step of the way. >> you can feel her heartbreak when they lost the sglam so congratulations, wendy, and the dodgers. moving on, in our road to the vaccine series we'll take a look at operation warp speed. the trump administration's unprecedented effort to accelerate distribution of the covid vaccine. the nearly $10 billion program is producing tens of millions of vaccine doses even before we know which vaccine candidates can be proven safe and effective. in a rare interview, paul

ostrowski, director for supply, production and distribution shares how they're tackling what he calls a herculean task without sacrificing the safety. he spoke to dr. tara narula. >> operation warp speed's stated goal is to produce and deliver 300 million doses of safe and effective covid vaccines to the americans. with the initial doses available by january 2021. are you on target to accomplish that mission? >> absolutely. we are actually going to exceed that expectation. we will have vaccines, we anticipate, prior to the turn of the new year. >> you will have 300 million doses prior to the new year? >> no, we will start off with a lower amounts. over time gradually build to that. >> when should the general population expect to be able to get a vaccine? >> it will probably be prioritization based. we expect end of first quarter,

early second quarter of next year. >> it's called operation warp speed. that means big and it means fast. >> many americans are concerned when they hear operation warp speed that somehow there's going to be a compromise in terms of safety. >> we've gone through the same trial process as any other drug or vaccine ever has. and the amount of fda oversight and the approval process with the fda is just like any other drug or any other vaccine. it is unprecedented with respect to the speed. we are taking absolutely positively no shortcuts with respect to safety or efficacy. >> what challenges to you foresee in getting a vaccine to americans? >> well, at least one of them is a cold chain vaccine. in other words, it has to be kept fairly cold. we're working with that particular pharmaceutical company in order to get further studies as to how long it can be frozen and how long it can stay in a refrigerator or how long it can be at room temperature. >> will the vaccine be free for all americans? >> absolutely.

110% free, no out-of-pocket costs. >> how will the vaccine be paid for? >> simply the government has already bought the vaccines. and the government has already paid for the distribution of the vaccines. >> the trade association that represents state managers have asked congress for $8.4 billion to help sdrdistribute the vacci. will states receive sufficient federal funds to distribute the vaccine? >> we've already distributed 200 million. another 140 will be passed out soon as we have these plans now back from the states. we understand what their challenges are and what they need. >> there as a shortage of both ppe and testing supplies, especially early on in the pandemic. can you assure the american people that the distribution of avaccine will go more smoothly? >> absolutely, tara, and this is why. we've got billions of needles, billions of syringes here in the united states that we are putting together in kits. we are going to ship those kits in addition to the vaccines to an administration site. >> the trump administration has

compared operation warp speed's program to the notoriously secret government project to make the first atomic bomb. >> unlike anything our country has seen since the manhattan project. >> what would you say to your critics who worry that your program may not be transparent? >> we have been as transparent as you possibly can. you have to come together as a whole of america approach with our industry partners and get after the hard things. looking at what are the key factors wearing on the problem. so what we're trying to do now is become a lot more transparent with respect to where we're at because frankly now we have a plan and we feel good about our plans. >> the lieutenant general urged americans to trust and take the vaccine. he also told us he expects operation warp speed's same regardless of who wins the presidential election. >> a lot of important information in there, tara, thank you. ahead, we'll ask clayton kershaw of the los angeles dodgers how it feels to be a

world series champion for the first time. >> pretty good, i'll bet. >> i think prop 19 helps california's most vulnerable.

it provides property tax fairness

for disabled homeowners like cynde, stuck living with a broken elevator. nineteen helps wildfire victims, like ellie, one of 24,000 who've lost their homes to fire. and seniors like pam who need to move closer to family or medical care, without a tax penalty. prop 19 limits taxes on our most vulnerable. yes on 19.

and there, the future hall of famer, has got a ring. >> sheer joy on the face of los angeles dodgers ace clayton kershaw after becoming a world series champion last night.

it's the dodgers first championship in 32 years after a most unusual season. clayton kershaw joins us now. good morning. congratulations. you haven't been to bed yet, have you? >> i might have got an hour or two, but you know what, you only win the world series so many times, so who needs sleep, right? >> you know, you're lucky to win it once. you've been with the dodgers for 13 years. you've got three cy young awards, an mvp, a no-hitter, but i imagine this tops all of that? >> oh, without question. this is what we all work for. like you said, it's been 32 years for dodger fans. i've been playing for 13 years now. i've been to the postseason a lot and never gotten to win one of these things. so to get to celebrate and to get to be a part of it, to get to be a part of the 2020 dodgers that get to bring home a world series championship to the fans and get to be there with my teammates and celebrate with my family -- >> that's the part i like. that was my favorite part. well, there were many favorite parts. but i want to know what it's

like when your dreams come true as a little boy and then you get to celebrate with your wife, who's your high school sweetheart, and your children who come on the field. where did you guys go, what did you do and what is it like for you? i know it's great, but i want to know -- i want you to take us behind the scenes about what you're thinking. >> just so many things. i think the first thought is just content. you know, just everything that you worked for, like you said, my dream. just to be able to do that and win. just content, satisfied, maybe a little bit of relief too just to be able to get it done. we finally got it done. you know, we celebrated the best we could. obviously we're still on the bubble, we're still with our team, but we celebrated as best we could. we're excited to get out of here and go see our families. >> let's talk a little bit about that relief that you mentioned. you guys won seven consecutive division titles and an eighth this year. seven previous times you were

knocked out and didn't win the title. to do it this year, how did you psychologically get prepared for it especially after that game saturday night where you lost, the runner fell down at third base, two fielding errors and then you lose. how do you bounce back after seven years are not getting there and then that on saturday night? >> well, it's not easy to win. i think that's been such an incredible thing to be on the dodgers, such a blessing for me that we've had such great teams that we're able to every year make it to the postseason. so, you know, every year you reset, every year you come into spring training trying to be ready to go but at the end of the day only one team gets to win. the fact that we did it this year is amazing. >> i'm curious, as a left-handed pitcher, one of the greatest starters of all time, how did you feel about this much-debated decision for the rays to pull blake snell in the fifth inning? he was dominating, he was dominating, and they pulled him and the game got out of control after that. your feeling? >> i feel good about it for us.

>> what did you think when they pulled him? >> you know, it was -- that's kind of what the rays m.o. has been their whole season. they have relied really heavily on their bullpen. they're a great team and have a great bullpen. blake was throwing the ball incredibly well. i think just the fact that it was somebody different gave our guys some momentum for sure. >> let's talk about teammate justin turner, that's the other big part of the story, who tested positive, or the results were released during the game. how did you all feel about that? i was thinking why wouldn't they know that ahead of time. but then when he was pulled from the game, how did the team feel? >> we feel awful for justin, obviously. but i was in the bullpen for most of the game honestly so i still am trying to catch up as to what's going on. i really don't have any idea what's going on at this point, but obviously feel terrible for him that he couldn't celebrate. at the end of the day, we're all world series champions and they can't take that away from us. >> yeah, that's right. but he did come out and take the group picture and there were a

lot of people going oh, no, clayton, he's in the picture with everybody. was the team worried about that? did they say, justin, why don't you stand over there? or do you say we're all champions, we're doing this together, we're taking this picture, come on in, justin. >> yeah, i think just caught up in the moment and really didn't know what was going on at the time for the most part. but at the end. day, we're just excited that we won and we hope everybody is safe and healthy. that's the main goal. >> you mentioned you played the world series in a bubble. this was a season unlike any other. does it feel any different to win a world series in this season? >> you know, i think the work and the effort to try and win this year didn't feel any different, but not having fans at dodgers stadium and not being able to celebrate with our fans is obviously tough. i know some day whenever it's safe to do so, we will get that opportunity, have a parade, get to see those fans that have wanted this so badly for so long. i can't wait for that day. >> you actually grew up right

near that stadium, didn't you, in dallas? >> yeah, i live like 15 minutes from this hotel so that's been weird too. i've wanted to go home for a long time so hopefully i'll get to go. >> have you seen the video of the fans in l.a.? they went crazy last night. have you had a chance to look at that? the enthusiasm and the happiness and joy they have for all of you is infectious. listen, los angeles is having a good year. first the lakers and now you guys. did you see the fans celebrating? >> i did, i did. i'm so excited for the city. obviously with the lakers winning, how cool that was. you know, it's been 32 years for us, 32 years. every year we've gotten close, so i know they felt our pain just like we have. they deserve it. they deserve to celebrate -- >> they're cutting us off. thank you, congratulations! >> all the best. >> all the best. >> bravo. >> thanks, guys. >> we'll be right back. woman: after covid, my hours got cut.

so we can't pay our bills. and now our family budget is gonna be hit hard with prop 15. the yes on 15 ads say it only raises taxes on big corporations. that's not true - we're all going to pay. $11 billion in new property taxes will get passed on to small businesses and farms. they'll raise prices... ...higher gas, health care, food...even day care.

we can't make ends meet now. families can't afford 15. no on prop 15.
