with the southwest in the middle of a decades long mega drought, states are facing the biggest water crisis in generations. in tonight's "eye on america," we head back to arizona, where earlier this year we reported on foreign-owned farms that are draining the state's water supply. cbs's ben tracy reports officials are now working to cancel those controversial leases. >> this was your well. >> this was my well. >> and now you got nothing. >> nothing but dust. >> reporter: arizona cattle rancher brad mead says his well went dry. >> you can toss a rock in, and it's gone. >> reporter: because of his neighbor's farm down the road. it's run by fondomonte, owned by one of the largest dairy companies in saudi arabia. it grows alfalfa here to feed cattle back in the middle east. it's illegal to grow it in saudi arabia because it uses so much water. >> so when you look out there and you see all that green, what

3:31 am
nation's history. for the first time in our country's 247 years, a former president of the united states has been arraigned on criminal charges of trying to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. cbs news was inside the courtroom for the entire hearing, which lasted less than 30 minutes. the former president, in a blue suit and a red tie, appeared calm as he said aloud "not guilty." also in court today, six d.c. federal judges sitting in the back row, including one who said those who egged on the january 6th rioters, quote, stoked the flames of fear. the four-count indictment details donald trump's alleged criminal plot to hold on to power and overturn the 2020 presidential election. security was tight around the courthouse in d.c. just blocks from the u.s. capitol. there's a lot to get to tonight, and cbs's robert costa is here to start us off. good evening, robert. >> good evening to you, norah. it was something americans have never seen before. a former president accused of
3:32 am
trying to defraud the nation he once led. and arriving back in washington to a crowd gathered not at the white house but at a federal courthouse. former president donald trump took on his critics after he left his arraignment in washington. >> this is a persecution of a political opponent. this was never supposed to happen in america. >> reporter: he traveled to the federal courthouse under heavy security, escorted by his secret service detail. throngs of protesters and fans gathered outside. once inside, he was processed, but no mug shot was taken. inside, trump was fingerprinted. in the courtroom, he raised his right hand to be sworn in. he stated his name and gave his age as seven-seven, 77. he pleaded not guilty to four charges brought in a grand jury investigation being led by special counsel jack smith, who was also in the courtroom. three counts of conspiracy, one for obstruction for allegedly
3:33 am
leading a criminal conspiracy to try to overthrow the 2020 presidential election. the judge told trump the obstruction charge alone carries a maximum of 20 years in prison. former trump attorney tim parlatore says prosecutors have an uphill climb, proving trump knew he lost. >> did he know at the time that the claims of fraud were false? did he know at the time that he'd actually lost the election? >> reporter: the indictment says trump deliberately disregarded the truth, a view shared by former attorney general william barr. >> i have come to believe that he knew well that he had lost the election. >> reporter: sources say trump's lawyers plan to argue that trump's false claims about the election were not criminal and that his efforts were driven by the advice of outside attorneys like sidney powell, rudy giuliani, and john eastman, among others. cbs news has learned that they are likely some of the six alleged co-conspirators cited in the indictment. the judge scheduled the next hearing for august 28th.
3:34 am
the special counsel has called for a speedy trial, but sources close to trump's legal team say they will push for a delay, arguing they need time to navigate the many cases facing trump. >> robert costa, thank you. john dickerson is also with us here. all right, john. this is the third criminal indictment this year, but it does include some of the most serious charges so far. how will this look in the history books? >> i think historians will go all the way back to the beginning. 236 years ago at this moment in philadelphia, they were designing the presidency and the constitution. the founders had two fears, a president who would put personal ambition over the obligations of the job and a public that would resort to political violence. both of those questions are at the center of what president trump is facing in this case, and the test for history going forward is whether that system the founders created can handle this stress test. >> part of his legal strategy is also a political strategy, which is to try and get re-elected and
3:35 am
become president again. >> and between the indictment and the january 6th report from the house, plus what president trump has said about these events, we've never had a more detailed look at how a candidate would act in office. and a lot of this detail comes from people under oath. so voters who want to know whether this candidate will preserve, protect, and defend can look at the details here and find out does he use his power wisely? does he listen to aides when they give him advice? does he act on impulse or by the obligations of the job? they'll have it all there to read to make their determination about whether he can handle four more years. >> always brilliant analysis, john dickerson, and great reporting, robert costa. thank you so much. let's turn now to some breaking news. federal prosecutors today charged two active duty navy sailors with selling sensitive national defense information to china. cbs's mark strassmann reports some of the information includes details about a large-scale military exercise and navy
3:36 am
warships. >> reporter: cash over country. >> we sometimes discover that threats to our national security come from inside our most esteemed institutions. >> reporter: for almost two years, today's indictment charges 26-year-old petty officer wenheng zhao betrayed his country, selling military secrets to the chinese government. >> mr. zhao chose a path of corruption, and in doing so, he sold out his colleagues at the u.s. navy. >> reporter: among the secrets zhao allegedly sold, details about his post at the naval base in ventura county, plans for this large-scale military exercise in the indo-pacific region earlier this year, and blueprints for a radar system on a u.s. base in okinawa. zhao's contact, a chinese intelligence officer. in return, zhao allegedly took nearly $15,000 in bribes. >> the scheme alleged here is just one more example of the
3:37 am
people republic of china's ongoing and brazen campaign to target u.s. officials with access to sensitive military secrets. >> reporter: arrested separately on espionanage chargeses, jinch wewei, a 22-yeyear-old macachin mate aboard the "uss essex." wei allegedly sold the chinese naval defense information and dozens of technical and mechanical military manuals, all while he was applying to become a u.s. citizen. >> the officer even congratulated him when he became a u.s. citizen. >> reporter: both sailors had first appearances today, zhao here at the federal courthouse in los angeles. in full uniform with shackles on his combat boots, he pleaded not guilty but, if convicted of bribery, faces up to 20 years. wei, if convicted of espionage, could get life. norah. >> very serious charges. mark strassmann, thank you. a rare federal death sentence was handed down today to the white nationalist gunman

president of the united states has been arraigned on criminal charges of trying to disrupt the peaceful transfer of power. cbs news was inside the courtroom for the entire hearing, which lasted less than 30 minutes. the former president, in a blue suit and a red tie, appeared calm as he said aloud "not guilty." also in court today, six d.c. federal judges sitting in the back row, including one who said those who egged on the january 6th rioters, quote, stoked the flames of fear. the four-count indictment details donald trump's alleged criminal plot to hold on to power and overturn the 2020 presidential election. security was tight around the courthouse in d.c. just blocks from the u.s. capitol. there's a lot to get to tonight, and cbs's robert costa is here to start us off. good evening, robert. >> good evening to you, norah. it was something americans have never seen before. a former president accused of trying to defraud the nation he

the judge told trump the obstruction charge alone carries a maximum of 20 years in prison. former trump attorney tim parlatore says prosecutors have an uphill climb, proving trump knew he lost. >> did he know at the time that the claims of fraud were false? did he know at the time that he'd actually lost the election? >> reporter: the indictment says trump deliberately disregarded the truth, a view shared by former attorney general william barr. >> i have come to believe that he knew well that he had lost the election. >> reporter: sources say trump's lawyers plan to argue that trump's false claims about the election were not criminal and that his efforts were driven by the advice of outside attorneys like sidney powell, rudy giuliani, and john eastman, among others. cbs news has learned that they are likely some of the six alleged co-conspirators cited in the indictment. the judge scheduled the next hearing for august 28th. the special counsel has called for a speedy trial, but sources close to trump's legal team say
4:06 am
they will push for a delay, arguing they need time to navigate the many cases facing trump. >> robert costa, thank you. john dickerson is also with us here. all right, john. this is the third criminal indictment this year, but it does include some of the most srious charges so far. how will this look in the history books? >> i think historians will go all the way back to the beginning. 236 years ago at this moment in philadelphia, they were designing the presidency and the constitution. the founders had two fears, a president who would put personal ambition over the obligations of the job and a public that would resort to political violence. both of those questions are at the center of what president trump is facing in this case, and the test for history going forward is whether that system the founders created can handle this stress test. >> part of his legal strategy is also a political strategy, which is to try and get re-elected and become president again. >> and between the indictment and the january 6th report from
4:07 am
the house, plus what president trump has said about these events, we've never had a more detailed look at how a candidate would act in office. and a lot of this detail comes from people under oath. so voters who want to know whether this candidate will preserve, protect, and defend can look at the details here and find out does he use his power wisely? does he listen to aides when they give him advice? does he act on impulse or by the obligations of the job? they'll have it all there to read to make their determination about whether he can handle four more years. > always brilliant analysis, john dickerson, and great reporting, robert costa. thank you so much. a rare federal death sentence was handed down today to the white nationalist gunman behind the deadliest attack on jewish people in u.s. history. robert bowers made anti-semitic rants online before killing 11 worshippers at the tree of life synagogue in pittsburgh. seven other people were wounded in the 2018 attack. a powerful explosion destroyed a home in new jersey

4:11 am
federal prosecutors today charged two active-duty navy sailors with selling sensitive national defense information to china. cbs's mark strassmann reports some of the information includes details about a large-scale military exercise and navy warships. >> reporter: cash over country. >> we sometimes discover that threats to our national security come from inside our most esteemed institutions. >> reporter: for almost two years, today's indictment charges 26-year-old petty officer wenheng zhao betrayed his country, selling military secrets to the chinese government. >> mr. zhao chose a path of corruption, and in doing so, he sold out his colleagues at the u.s. navy. >> reporter: among the secrets zhao allegedly sold, details about his post at the naval base in ventura county, plans for this large-scale military exercise in the indo-pacific region earlier this year, and blueprints for a radar system on a u.s. base in okinawa.
4:12 am
zhao's contact, a chinese intelligence officer. in return, zhao allegedly took nearly $15,000 in bribes. >> the scheme alleged here is just one more example of the people republic of china's ongoing and brazen campaign to target u.s. officials with access to sensitive military secrets. >> reporter: arrested separately onon espionagege charges, , jin wei, a 22-year-old machinist mate aboard the "uss essex." wei allegedly sold the chinese naval defense information and dozens of technical and mechanical military manuals, all while he was applying to become a u.s. citizen. >> the officer even congratulated him when he became a u.s. citizen. >> reporter: both sailors had first appearances today, zhao here at the federal courthouse in los angeles. in full uniform with shackles on his combat boots, he pleaded not
4:13 am
guilty but, if convicted of bribery, faces up to 20 years. wei, if convicted of espionage, could get life. norah. >> very serious charges. mark strassmann, thank you. now to a tragedy on the southern border. mexican authorities have recovered the bodies of two possible drowning victims in the rio grande. cbs's omar villafranca reports one of the bodies was found near a floating barrier that was recently installed by the texas government to deter migrants. >> reporter: the two bodies were discovered in this remote stretch of the rio grande. the first migrant from honduras was found by texas troopers tangled on the controversial floating barrier buoys. later, mexican authorities found another body three miles upstream. officials are investigating what led to their deaths. they spoke to his emotional mother, who says he was her oldest son. before he left, she told reporters he gave her one last hug and said, "we can't keep
4:14 am
starving here. i have to go." mexican officials blame the drownings on the barriers. a spokesperson for texas governor greg abbott disagrees, saying the mexican government is flat-out wrong. to be clear, preliminary information points to the drowning occurring before the body was even near the barriers. the deaths come less than three weeks after the 1,000-foot barrier was placed in the water to deter illegal crossings, a part of governor greg abbott's $5 billion border security plan, operation lone star. >> it's too deep. they have a child. jesus. >> reporter: this woman's farm bumps up to the rio grande and the buoys. [ speaking in a global language ] >> reporter: where we saw state troopers rescue a small migrant group with children baking in the texas sun. urbina says the buoys haven't stopped migrants from crossing the river. >> they don't change anything. it doesn't deter or doesn't stop.
4:15 am
it doesn't do anything. >> reporter: the doj has sued the state of texas, saying that the barriers are not safe, they're unlawful, and they want them removed. but texas governor greg abbott says the state has a right to defend its borders. both sides are waiting on the court's decision. norah. >> omar villafranca, thank you. we want to turn now to some terrifying incidents on board several planes. on wednesday, delta crew members and passengers helped subdue a man following a violent attack on a flight attendant in new orleans. in a separate incident, one person was injured when a tire was blown out during a hard landing in atlanta. cbs's kris van cleave has new details about a near collision at boston's logan airport. >> reporter: tonight a dramatic new picture of a close call on a boston runway, taken from a jetblue cockpit shows a business jet taking off without permission in february, forcing the airliner to take evasive action to avoid a catastrophic collllision. also tonight, the faa is investigating what caused a fiery tire blowout as delta flight 1437 landed in atlanta
4:16 am
yesterday. >> it sounds like we blew a tire, 1437, is that correct? >> yes, sir. we did see smoke and fire coming off of one of your tires. your number one main gear is on fire. >> reporter: the 190 passengers on board the boeing 757 used emergency slides as fire crews responded. at least one passenger was injured. >> anytime you have fire on an airplane, it's not a good situation at all. and so evacuating sounds to me like it's probably the best option. >> reporter: just hours earlier at the new orleans airport -- >> looks like we have a passenger that's gotten up. can we go ahead and sit right here? >> reporter: sheriff's deputies say 39-year-old nelson montgomery allegedly stabbed himself before grabbing a flight attendant moments after delta flight 2432 landed from atlanta. that's him on the stretcher. passengers jumped in to restrain the man. >> that flight attendant weighed maybe 110 pounds. if we hadn't been there to restrain him, she would have been out of luck.
4:17 am
>> reporter: raquel davis was on board. >> the people that subdued the man, i'm thankful for them, that they took the time to put their lives at risk. >> reporter: the flight attendant was treated for minor injuries and montgomery arrested. while the number of disruptive passengers has come down considerably from its record high in 2021, so far this year the faa has received nearly 1,200 reports, and that's despite stepped-up penalties. norah. >> kris van cleave, thank you. >> kris van cleave, thank you. the "cbs overnight news" - [w[warrior 1 1] woundeded war prproject hahas been w with e evevery stepep of my j journ. - aaaaron, howow you doioing b? - - [warrioror 2] withth expers that helelp me reaealize ththat i'm n not alonene. - [w[warrior 3 3] and spspeciad prprogramsms that givive me thehe tools to traiain my bodody and mimin. - [warririor 4] nonow it's p poe for meme to getet back ouout there.. - - [warrioror 1] to g get oa my c comfort z zone and try y new thinings. - - [warrioror 5] toto buid and bebe part ofof a commumuy ththat suppoports otheher warr. - - [warrioror 6] itit's posse toto get thehe help i i need fofor me andnd my famimily. - [w[warrior 7 7] i got t y confnfidence b back. i'm setttting goalals and i'm achihieving ththem. - [warririor 8] itit's possise to feel l understotood.
