7:09 am
what did you guys talk about going in? >> the coach is an amazing coach. he set up an amazing game plan. we wanted to execute that from the standpoint and make sure mahomes couldn't get to his right, forcing him to his left. making tough throws whether he's on one foot or on the ground, where he couldn't throw the football. that was our ultimate goal. >> let's talk about tom brady. the difference that he's made for the team. they're making jokes like champa bay or tompa bay. what do you think about the leadership of the team? >> tom is an incredible leader. i wish you could have been in the locker room at the beginning of the game. we talked about honor and the ability to win this game and the people around you and yourself will be honored for years to come. and forevermore. it was exciting to have a guy like that, to have that speech and know he's been in those situations before.

7:13 am
for stimulus checks and holding off on a $15 minimum wage. but on other provisions like $400-a-week unemployment benefits for the next six months, mr. biden is holding firm to the frustration of a group of senate republicans who had hoped he would meet them halfway. >> the administration is showing very clearly they don't care if they have to work with us. >> reporter: the covid bill could be overshadowed this week by the second senate impeachment trial of former president trump, accused of inciting an insurrection last month. >> we're going to walk down to the capitol -- >> reporter: over the weekend, wyoming republican liz cheney was censured by her state party. but the congresswoman said she did not regret voting to impeach. >> what we already know is enough for his impeachment. this is not something that we can simply look past or pretend didn't happen or try to move on. >> reporter: a conviction in the senate is unlikely. >> this impeachment in the eyes of most republicans is an unconstitutional exercise. >> reporter: mr. biden told cbs
7:14 am
news that his predecessor should no longer get classified intelligence briefings. >> reporter: why not? >> because of his erratic behavior unrelated to the insurrection. >> reporter: after that interview, white house press secretary jen psaki clarified that president trump has deep trust in his own intelligence team to make that ultimate determination about whether president trump should continue to receive those intelligence briefings. also, over the weekend, president biden was among those paying tribute to george schultz who was president reagan's secretary of state. schultz, president biden said, was a man of honor and ideas. he died on saturday at the age of 100 years old. anthony? >> an extraordinary career in public service. nancy, thank you. there's new concern this morning over a more infectious coronavirus strain that's starting to spread in the u.s. south africa has stopped giving

last month requiring chain grocery stores to pay $4 an hour more for at least 120 days, parent company kroger announced the store was one of two closing. their reason -- the store couldn't afford to stay open. do you feel like you're stuck in the middle of politics here? >> yes. >> reporter: the union says her food 4 less store saw sales from march to august rise 29% from the year before and says according to financial records, kroger, the largest grocery chain in the country, earned twice as much last year as the previous year. the hero pay ordinance has also prompted a lawsuit from the california grocers association. ron fong is the group's president. >> you know, the one thing that we do agree with is that our employees are our heroes. however, it is really unprecedented to have a city council demand what businesses should do with their wages. >> reporter: fong says grocers should decide if they want to give employees hazard pay.

7:30 am
back now at 7:30. the popular trading app robinhood is under new scrutiny as part of a lawsuit centered on a tragedy. the site is part of the reason gamestop shares recently surged against expectations before quickly plunging again costing many small investors large amounts of money. it was a painful reminder for one family of their own son's death by suicide last june at a time when he believed he'd racked up massive losses on the robinhood app. we spoke to his parents who blame the company for his death. >> to be honest, it was really a joyful household. >> it was. >> reporter: late last spring,
7:31 am
dan and dorothy kearns had a full house after the pandemic brought their 20-year-old son alex home from college. >> one night he says to me, like, mom, i don't know what i want to do with my life yet, but i do know i want to help people. >> reporter: but alex was also interested in investing and had opened an account with robinhood, an app that lets anybody buy and sell stocks with no fees and no experience. >> didn't see the harm in doing that. it was limited exposure. so -- >> reporter: where did he get the money that he had from? >> that was grandma and grandpa money, gifts. all told, maybe $5,000 into savings. >> reporter: what the kearns didn't realize is he had also been approved by robinhood to buy and sell options, a riskier instrument with the potential for huge losses. >> i don't understand how they allowed that to happen in the first place. >> reporter: they say alex's inexperience is what got him into trouble one night last june when his robinhood account showed a negative balance of more than $700,000. at 3:26 a.m., the company sent
7:32 am
an automated email demanding alex take immediate action, requesting a payment of more than $170,000 on his debt. >> he thought he blew up his life. he thought he screwed up beyond repair. >> reporter: robinhood has no customer service number, but alex emailed three times to help understand whether he could still offset the losses with another trade. could someone please look into this, he wrote, receiving back nothing more than an automated message. >> and their response was a canned reply, basically we'll get back to you later. >> reporter: what do you do with that thought? >> it haunts me. it really does. >> reporter: later that day, the sheriff knocked on the kearns' front door to deliver the news -- alex had killed himself. >> i lost the love of my life. he -- i miss more than anything.
7:33 am
it's the kind o of pain t that don't think should be humanly popossible. >> reporter: robininhood says i mission is to democratize finance, bringing younger and more diverse investors into the market. an approach the company highlighted in a super bowl ad. >> you don't need to become an investor, you were born one. robinhood. >> it's the conduct. this conduct is reprehensible. >> reporter: william galvin is the chief financial regulator in the state of massachusetts and one of robinhood's chief critics. >> it was a very deliberate effort on the part of robinhood to particularly entice younger inexperienced investors. >> yeah, i bet he's investing right now -- >> reporter: he points to the company's marketing claiming it rewards daily usage of the app and encourages frequent trading. >> a new kind of investor i is changing things up. >> reporter: even working in virtual confetti in what a recent complaint by galvin's office described as gamefication. >> they call themselves robinhood for a reason.
7:34 am
right, robinhood steals from the rich and goes giveives to the p. is that happening? >> i don't think so. they've not acted in the best interests of their customers. it's not true. >> reporter: what happened to alex kearns is a particular worry to galvin and his team. they found more than 600 examples in his state alone of robinhood customers who by the company's own standards should not have been approved for options trading but were. >> their rush to make money out of this has caused them to add people to their base and to recklessly bring people on board who they probably should have said no, we won't qualify you for options now. >> reporter: we, too, were curious to know how easy it is to get approved for basic options trading. one of the first questions is how much investment experience do you have? i'm going to choose none. that resulted in a rejection. but it's giving me the choice to update my experience if i'd like to -- by simply changing no experience to not much, we got approved immediately.
7:35 am
welcome to options. >> how are those guardrails? how does that stop an 18-year-old from making risky trades that they don't really understand? >> reporter: in a suicide note to his parents, alex had similar questions. how is a 20-year-old with no income able to get assigned almost a million dollars worth of leverage, he wrote, adding, i also have no clue what i was doing. >> he said in a note, i didn't want to die. >> he also said that he was doing this for us. he was trying to save us from what he thought was impending financial disaster. >> reporter: in a wrongful death lawsuit they plan to file today, dan and dorothy kearns say robinhood must be held accountable. do you think if robinhood had somebody manning an email account or picking up a phone that alex would be here today? >> absolutely. >> yeah. i have no doubt. >> he just wanted an answer. >> he just needed a little help. he could have gotten answers to those questions, and there was nobody there to do that for him.
7:36 am
>> reporter: it wasn't until the day after alex kearns killed himself that robinhood sent an email suggesting he didn's and alex was trading, and also added a feature for customers in his situation to request a callback from the company. however, it still does not have a phone number for customers to call themselves. the company said it disagrees with the allegations made by the commonwealth of massachusetts. robinhood declined to address why it did not respond to alex kearns' emails the night before his death. >> let me get this straight -- he may not have lost any money at all? it may be a mistaken email? >> it appears he was led to believe he was deeply in debt and had ruined himself and his parents when, in fact, he
7:37 am
wasn't. so at issue here -- the state of massachusetts brings this up -- is robinhood is like your broker. your broker cannot lead you to believe you have ruined yourself if you have not. that's -- that's a big part of the issue here. >> it is a heartbreaking story. i'm trying to figure out, what is brief brobinhood's responsib? if you go on and willingly sign and you're over 18 which makes you an adult in many places, what is their responsibility? >> a duty of care to a customer who is like a person who you're giving financial advice to in esse essence. a broker/dealer relationship. it's different in each state. something the parents bring up which is key is alex was too young to go las vegas and gamble. >> yeah. yeah. >> he could go on robinhood in his bedroom upstairs and gamble just the same. >> a lot of questions. heartbreaking story. >> i want to understand -- basically if this is true then an erroneous email caused this young man's suicide. >> yes. >> which is just -- i mean -- >> so key question is why don't they have customer service available at a phone number's reach? we're going to talk about that
7:38 am
tomorrow. we investigate why robinhood has no phone number for customers to call, and we speak with former employees who have described some of the problems that they faced when robinhood users needed help. next, how a series of deadly avalanches shows the growing danger for skiers and hikers escaping to remote areas during the pandemic. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." alright, i i brought i in ensusure max prorotein... ...to o give you t the proteiein you needed with lesess of the s sugar you't (grurunting noisise) i'll take ththat. yeeeeeeeah! 30 grams o of protein n and 1 1 gram of susugar drinink, play, a and win bigig e powered byby protein c challeng! ♪♪

the senate begins donald trump's second impeachment trial tomorrow. the house impeached then-president trump last month, accusing him of inciting the january 6th assault on the capitol. the senate must decide if he should be convicted and if he should be prevented from holding federal office in the future.
8:16 am
tony shows us what to expect. >> people should remember, first of all, that impeachment is a political process, not a legal one. and it's also exceedingly rare -- or it was prior to president trump. there were only two presidential impeachments in all of american history. that would be andrew johnson in 1868, and bill clinton, 130 years later. consider that we have now seen it twice in a single administration. let's talk conviction. the senate needs a two-thirds vote to convict mr. trump. that means democrats and their independent allies would need 17 republicans to cross over. that's unlikely. only five republicans voted to have this trial at all. house impeachment managers are going to work like prosecutors preventing evidence to argue that mr. trump's rhetoric encouraged and resulted in lawless action at the capitol. mr. trump's lawyers meanwhile will offer a defense, he'll have an opportunity to build what amounts to be a case on a tech coloity. they're going -- technicality. they're going to see you've got to be present to be impeached from the presidency.

democrats say that essentially gives the president a blank check for behavior late in the term. the other point republicans are making is, look, polarization is a problem in this country. we've got to move on and now's the time. to that, democrats counter you can't have uniification without accountability first. >> and the january 6th incident at the capitol was a significant event that have to be accounted for. president biden wants to keep the focus on his agenda, not the former president's trial. "cbs evening news" anchor norah o'donnell spoke with president biden in his first network television interview since taking office. he talked about covid relief, sanctions on iran, and his return to the white house as president. >> reporter: mr. president, you've certainly been around the white house for a long time. you've walked into the oval office, you were vice president for eight years. but did it feel a little different when you walked in as president of the united states and sat down on the other side of theies resolute desk? >> you know what felt different? when i walked through the front
8:18 am
doors of the white house after being sworn in. >> reporter: there was that picture of you end bracing the first lady. >> yeah. yeah. president clinton and i used to talk about who's read the most biographies of presidents. he's probably red more than i, but i've -- read more than i, but i've read a lot of them. i thought of presidents in terms of abraham lincoln up there or, you know, franklin roosevelt, or george washington. and i thought to myself, how in god's name could i, you know, do -- compare myself to them. then i realized i know eight presidents, i've served eight terms, i know them. they're all really fine men. and it sort of brought it back down to life size. and you know their strengths and weaknesses, and it gave a little more of, well, you know, no, don't get me wrong, i think it's an incredibly challenging job, and i'm extremely flattered to have the chance to do it. i hope to god i live up to it. but it seemed to make it more
8:19 am
life size. >> and norah o'donnell joins us from washington. good morning. you've interviewed joe biden over the years many times. but never when he was president of the united states. this is the first time as sitting president. what stood out to you? what felt different if anything? >> well, i think president biden now realizes and feels the weight of being a wartime president. you know, i said something like you've been in office for 2.5 weeks. he said, it feels a lot longer than that. you know, i think there's the sense of really wanting to crush the coronavirus, the world's problems that exist up there. i mean, he would say they're trying to clean up from the past administration. and so that's all part of what this white house is dealing with. you know, already this week, right, they're going to try and lay out school guidelines, the cdc, to get kids back in school. they are trying to encourage moderna and pfizer to ramp up productions. i've learned from sources close to the white house that the president is going to in the coming weeks visit either the
8:20 am
moderna production or pfizer facilities in order to get a sense of that. and so they're really trying to project this idea of a competent president who's trying to push forward on this, and of course this week they're going to move forward on their own policy track while the senate is going forward on the impeachment track. >> on the covid front talking about schools, as you mentioned, he said the cdc will release requirements to reopen schools perhaps as soon as wednesday. any sense of what -- he talked specifically about reopening them safely, he paused to say that word. do we know what safely is likely to mean? >> well, he's talking about getting teachers vaccinated, although not a requirement. he's talking about ventilation systems and social distancing and masks in classrooms. but look, you have democratic mayors at odds with teachers unions in cities like chicago, san francisco, and other places. and so i think the question has been, you know, mike bloomberg, the former mayor of new york, said it's time for president biden to stand up to the
8:21 am
teachers unions and the teachers and get them back to school. it was something i asked the president about, you'll hear his answer tonight on the "evening news." there need to be leadership from the white house, leadership, science guidelines from the cdc. you see -- in chicago they've reached a deal. they're waiting for those guidelines from the cdc, that that could be the next step. how do we do this safely? can someone please tell us what we need to do? so that's what's coming this week. so there will be i think a lot of news from the white house on th froat because schools, of course, a top issue. as the president acknowledged in the interview, the fact that kids are not in school, some 20 million kids, that means a lot of women are drooping out of the work force. and the president acknowledged this is a national emergency. >> congrats on the interview. i know you only had 20 minutes with the president. you covered a lot of topics. i'm curious if you got to ask about hunter biden's book? a lot of eyebrows are being raised, called "beautiful things," talking about his battle with drug addiction. people are wondering about the timing of the book considering
8:22 am
his dad just got in the white house. did you goat ask about that? >> i did. we released that clip over the weekend. he said, i'm very proud of my son. i think he used the phrase he's back, he got very emotional. the book is in many ways not only about dealing with his -- the loss of his brother, beau, from brain cancer, but also about his own personal struggle with addiction and recovery. and so it's a very personal memoir. as the president said, he said, i don't need -- know one family in america that doesn't have someone in their own family or knows someone who has dealt with alcoholism -- >> did he know the book was coming out? >> the president told me that he did not know that the book was coming out. that he just learned about it recently. and he had just gotten the galleys in the last week. >> all right. norah o'donnell, thank you. you can watch more of norah's interview with president biden tonight on the "cbs evening news" when they'll discuss re reopening schools. we'll be right back. so gooood to seee you.
