now to our "60 minutes" interview you'll see this weekend. general mark milley just finished his four-year term as america's highest ranking officer. as the president's top military adviser, he spent a lot of time at the white house. so we asked him about his experience with the commander in chief. >> president joe biden has been portrayed by his political opponents and even some of his allies as too old to be president. i'm not asking for your political opinion here, but how does he seem to you? >> look it, i'm not going to comment. i didn't comment on the former president's mental health, physical health, and i'm not going to comment on the currentment's mental health or physical health. i think that's highly inappropriate for the senior office of the united states military to do that. i would just tell you that i meet frequently with the president, and every single time i meet with him, he is just fine. i hope people interpret that as up to them, but i engage with him frequently, and alert,

sound, does his homework, reads the papers, reads all the read-ahead material, and is very, very engaging in issues of very serious matters of war and peace and life and death. so if the american people are worried about an individual who is, you know, someone who's making decisions of war and peace and has access -- you know, makes the decisions of nuclear weapons and that sort of thing, i think they can rest easy. >> our story with general milley, including his public falling out with former president trump and his thoughts on the war in ukraine will air on "60 minutes" this sunday. we turn now to a widely publicized pet problem at the white house. the president and first lady forced between to remove one of their beloved german shepherds from the premises after a serious of biting incidents. cbs's weijia jiang has more on commander's move from the white house to the dog house. >> reporter: president biden's dog, commander, was spotted at

the white house on saturday. but after biting someone last monday night, he no longer lives here. cbs news has learned there have been more than 11 biting incidents involving the 2-year-old german shepherd and secret service officers. at least two had to be taken to the hospital for treatment. following an incident last november, one secret service officer emailed a colleague. my leg and arm still hurts. he bit me twice and ran at me twice. a fellow secret service officer replied, what a joke. if it wasn't their dog, he would already have been put down. sources tell cbs commander also bit white house residential staff and other workers. the dog, a gift from the president's brother, is the second to be removed from the white house. major bit two people in one month back in 2021. >> he's a sweet dog. 85% of the people there love him. all he does is lick them and wag his tail. >> reporter: dog trainer robert

contract brawl says canine behavior depends often several factors like genetics, scialization, and training. >> when you're dealing with the president's dog, nobody is going to want to correct the president's dog. and sadly when you're in a position of power, people are going to tell you what you want to hear and not tell you the truth. the truth is this dog needs structure. >> reporter: tonight the white house is not saying whether commander is permanently banned from living here on the grounds or if he'll be returning. the biden dogs are not the first presidential pups to act out either. in just one example in 2008, president george w. bush's scottish terrier barney bit a reporter's finger. norah. >> i remember that. weijia jiang, thank you. weijia jiang, thank you. the "cbs (peaceful music) - time to get up, sweetie!

that president biden vowed never to do. 18-foot-high steel panels will be installed along a 20-mile stretch of the rio grande near mcallen, texas. they're meant to stop scenes like this. hundreds of migrants racing towards the u.s. border on tuesday night. president biden insisted today he didn't want to build the wall but that his hands were tied by a law congress passed in 2019. >> they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. i can't stop that. >> do you believe the border wall works? >> no. >> reporter: but his own homeland security secretary, traveling in mexico, said they do work. secretary mayorkas issued a notice stating there is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers in order to prevent unlawful entries into the united states. immigration is a sensitive political issue for president biden, who made this campaign promise in 2020.

>> there will not be another foot of wall constructed in my administration. >> reporter: but as illegal border crossings have surged above 200,000 last month alone, even some of his political allies have grown critical. in chicago, hundreds of migrants are sleeping on the sidewalks outside police stations. illinois governor j.b. pritzker wrote, "the federal government's lack of intervention and coordination at the border has created an untenable situation for illinois." new york city's democratic mayor has also been outspoken and issued this warning in mexico today. >> we want to give a real picture of what's happening in new york city. we are at capacity. >> reporter: late this afternoon, the administration announced it will be restarting direct deportations of venezuelan migrants back to their home country. venezuelans accounted for nearly a quarter of all illegal border crossings last month. norah. >> nancy cordes, thank you.

made a trip to this region to raise soldier morale. today he condemned the attack as no blind strike and brutal. so brutal it's one of the bloodiest since the first two months of russia's invasion when missile strikes killed hundreds in a theater in mariupol and more than 60 at a rail station in kramamatorsk. this new strike comes as a new poll shows american support for more military aid to ukraine falling, down 5% since the summer. >> how worried are you about defense spending for ukraine? >> 100% worried. >> reporter: oleksandra ustinova is a ukrainian congresswoman overseeing weapons from overseas. >> and the most needed types of weapons right now for us is the air defense missiles. if we don't have any more of those coming, we would have hundreds and thousands of civilians dead this winter. >> reporter: for the village of hroza, any missiles that would have come to defend are too late. and congresswoman ustinova told

us the himars, the mobile rocket launchers that the u.s. gave ukraine, are idle 90% of the time. that's because missiles just aren't available. norah. >> ramy inocencio, thank you. tonight there's been an arrest in a stabbing death that shocked and saddened many in new york city. cbs new york was at the scene when 18-year-old brian dowling was taken into custody at his homeme this morning. he's charged with murdering 32-year-old social activist ryan carson in a brutal attack caught on surveillance video. it happened on a brooklyn street early monday when carson and his girlfriend were heading home from a wedding. no word yet on a motive. we turn now to a widely publicized pet problem at the white house. the president and first lady forced again to remove one of their beloved german shepherds from the premises after a series of biting incidents. cbs's weijia jiang has more on commander's move from the white house to the doghouse.

mexican border and just 99 sworn deputies. chases like this captured on officer body camera video in may. the driver crashed and made a run for it as his car caught on fire. >> i can't see the release. hang on. >> reporter: with a migrant in the trunk. >> get out, get out, come on. >> reporter: deputies managed to get him out unhurt. >> smuggling and trafficking drugs, humans -- >> it's every day. >> it's every day. >> reporter: county swlif mark dannels. >> and every time i hear a deputy, an officer, an agent, say we have a pursuit. we have a failure to yield, i cringe. >> reporter: in october 2021, a 16-year-old suspected smuggler crashed into a 65-year-old headed to her own birthday dinner. she died. last year, arizona passed a strict new felony human smuggling statute trying to address the problem. the sheriff says the vast majority of the more than 400 arrested since are american citizens who came from out of town, many recruited by drug

cartels using social media. messages like these intercepted by investigators, promising would-be drivers thousands to race migrants away from the border. >> we had over 100 juveniles in the last 18 months that we've apprehended in this county smuggling, all the way to the ages of 13 and 12 years of age. down here, driving grandma's car, a friend's car, mom and dad's car, and it's social media. >> reporter: we witnessed this firsthand when an 18-year-old from north carolina led deputies on a lengthy chase. he's since pleaded guilty to assisting a human smuggling operation, telling investigators he was directed to pick up three migrants in the desert after responding to a message on tiktok. >> was it an advertisement? >> it was like an advertisement. >> what was that advertisement like? >> it was just showing money. >> what is that doing for the quality of life in this county? >> cart thes don't care about america. they don't care about you or i

or anybody else they're exploiting. they care about the dollar bill and power. >> it's a deal with the devil. >> it's a deal with the devil. >> reporter: back with deputy oh let ski, as night fell, the team pulled over this car for speeding as it entered the town of tombstone. the 23-year-old driver was from three hours north in phoenix. in the back, an undocumented migrant. >> and i'm sorry that i did this, and i'm sorry i'm sitting here wasting your guys' time. >> we're heading southbound. >> reporter: just minutes later, we were racing to intercept a suspected smuggler after the speeding vehicle refused to stop. >> border patrol ended up in a pursuit. that vehicle fled from border patrol. >> reporter: the goal is to stop the suv before it gets into town. as the police pursuit approaches, oh let ski lays down a spike strip. it's now where what had become routine became anything but, and the life and death consequences this community faces became instantly real. >> hang on, hang on. he went down over the edge. stay where you are. >> reporter: we flagged down

this passing border patrol agent who called for help. >> this is dangerous work. after spike stripping that fleeing suv, our deputy slipped and fell off the embankment here about 10 feet down onto concrete. he's going to have to be airlifted to a hospital in tucson. >> reporter: the driver, 47-year-old bernadette of the phoenix area was arrested a couple of miles up the road. the spike strip took out three of her tires. at least six suspected migrants ran from the scene. >> why didn't you stop for the police? >> reporter: she's charged with human smuggling and dui and will likely face additional charges stemming from oh let ski's injuries. >> one of your deputies was almost killed last night. >> yeah. >> does it make you angry? >> it pisses me off because we've been talking about this for almost three years. i've testified in front of congress. i've met with anybody that will listen to us. and every day that goes by, i see another tragedy. >> you've got these folks that are hellbent on getting away. wouldn't it be safer to not

pursue? >> we have revised our pursuit policy. we have revised our operational, our interdiction. you name it, we've done it. but when you have a car going 100 miles an hour and you turn your head and go the other way and they kill a family, how do you live with yourself? you can't. >> reporter: deputy oh let ski is in stable condition. he suffered a broken femur, broken pelvis, broken wrist, and broken elbow. there's some concern about a potential head injury from the fall. but the sheriff says before he went into surgery, he told his wife he plans to go back to work, back to patrolling those rural roads turned into smuggling speedways. smuggling speedways. >> that w was kri ugugh, this guguy again.... popops! ay s son! ya got a l little someththin' on yuhuh face. neededed a quickck shave. ququick shave?e? respect ththe process!s! it ainin't my dad'd's razor, d, it's's from gillllettelabs.. gilletette...labs?s? gillette's's ultimatee shshaving expeperience. thisis green barar releasess trtrapped hairirs from my y f. gamechchanga! whilile the flexexdisc cocontours to o it. lookin' ' smooth. feelinin' even smomoother. how w 'boutut hookin' m me uph sosome gillettttelabs?

the administration is moving forward with plans to build new border barriers in south texas. that's an abrupt change from a campaign pledge made by then-candidate joe biden. the president defended his decision saying he has no choice because the funding was approved specifically for a border wall. for just the second time in history, data from the department of homeland security southern border surpassed 2 million in the past year. southern states are not alone in feeling the impact with texas governor greg abbott sending busloads of asylum seekers to so-called sanctuary cities. mayors from new york to los angeles say they are being overwhelmed by the massive influx of migrants. cbs's nancy cordes is going to start us off tonight from the white house. good evening, nancy. >> reporter: norah, good evening. not only is the biden administration fast-tracking the construction of this wall, it's also waiving 26 different laws and regulations to do something that president biden vowed never to do. 18-foot-high steel panels will

be installed along a 20-mile stretch of the rio grande near mcallen, texas. they're meant to stop scenes like this. hundreds of migrants racing towards the u.s. border on tuesday night. president biden insisted today he didn't want to build the wall but that his hands were tied by a law congress passed in 2019. >> they have to use the money for what it was appropriated for. i can't stop that. >> do you believe the border wall works? >> no. >> reporter: but his own homeland security secretary, traveling in mexico, said they do work. secretary mayorkas issued a notice stating there is presently an acute and immediate need to construct physical barriers in order to prevent unlawful entries into the united states. immigration is a sensitive political issue for president biden, who made this campaign promise in 2020. >> there will not be another foot of wall constructed in my administration.

>> reporter: but as illegal border crossings have surged above 200,000 last month alone, even some of his political allies have grown critical. in chicago, hundreds of migrants are sleeping on the sidewalks outside police stations. illinois governor j.b. pritzker wrote, "the federal government's lack of intervention and coordination at the border has created an untenable situation for illinois." new york city's democratic mayor has also been outspoken and issued this warning in mexico today. >> we want to give a real picture of what's happening in new york city. we are at capacity. >> reporter: late this afternoon, the administration announced it will be restarting direct deportations of venezuelan migrants back to their home country. venezuelans accounted for nearly a quarter of all illegal border crossings last month. norah. >> nancy cordes, thank you. turning overseas to ukraine and one of the deadliest attacks against civilians in the war.

no blind strike and brutal. so brutal it's one of the bloodiest since the first two months of russia's invasion when missile strikes killed hundreds inin a theater i in mariupol an more than 60 at a rail station in kramatorsk. this new strike comes as a new poll shows american support for more military aid to ukraine falling, down 5% since the summer. >> how worried are you about defense spending for ukraine? >> 100% worried. >> reporter: oleksandra ustinova is a ukrainian congresswoman overseeing weapons from overseas. >> and the most needed types of weapons right now for us is the air defense missiles. if we don't have any more of those coming, we would have hundreds and thousands of civilians dead this winter. >> reporter: for the village of hroza, any missiles that would have come to defend are too late. and congresswoman ustinova told us the himars, the mobile rocket launchers that the u.s. gave ukraine, are idle 90% of the time.

that's because missiles just aren't available. norah. >> ramy inocencio, thank you. tonight there's been an arrest in a stabbing death that shocked and saddened many in new york city. cbs new york was at the scene when 18-year-old brian dowling was tataken into c custody at h home this morning. he's charged with murdering 32-year-old social activist ryan carson in a brutal attack caught on surveillance video. it happened on a brooklyn street early monday when carson and his girlfriend were heading home from a wedding. no word yet on a motive. there's a lot more news ahead on the "cbs overnight news."

where today elodie nicholas got her prescriptions and her groceries. >> yeah, absolutely i believe it. i'm buying less. >> reporter: she started taking ozempic after having two heart attacks, and she's lost 36 pounds since may. >> has it changed what you eat? >> 100%. the sweet stuff, it just literally turns my stomach. my appetite used to be overflowing because i'd have all the junk and the sodas and all that. now it's half -- less than half of what it used to be. >> reporter: walmart has one of the most sophisticated systems for collecting data on its shoppers, and u.s. ceo john furner told bloomberg they've seen smaller checkouts from people taking these medications. "we do see a slight pullback in overall basket, less units, slightly less calories." >> does it surprise you that walmart is looking at this sort of data? >> i think every large retailer is looking at this sort of data. they have the data through their loyalty programs. >> reporter: leo feler is the chief economist at numerator, a company that analyzes shopping

receipts for millions of people. >> then we use that data to help inform retailers, to help inform food manufacturers. >> reporter: health care providers wrote more than 9 million prescriptions for drugs used for weight loss in the last three months of 2022, and morgan stanley estimates 7% of the u.s. population will be taking these medications by 2035. >> over the course of the next ten years, this will likely change the way that consumers shop and what consumers are buying. >> reporter: for elodie nicholas and her husband, that's already happened. >> i buy the groceries. it's also helping him to eat healthy. >> reporter: as more people start taking these medications, an analysis from jeffries financial group says snack makers like kellogg, hershey's and hostess could be impacted. but even airlines might benefit from this with lower fuel costs as passengers lose weight. walmart did not respond to our inquiries. norah. >> fascinating. carter evans, thank you.

now to our "60 minutes" interview you'll see this weekend. general mark milley just finished his four-year term as america's highest ranking officer. as the president's top military adviser, he spent a lot of time at the white house. so we asked him about his experience with the commander in chief. >> president joe biden has been portrayed by his political opponents and even some of his allies as too old to be president. i'm not asking for your political opinion here, but how does he seem to you? >> look it, i'm not going to comment. i didn't comment on the former president's mental health, physical health, and i'm not going to comment on the current president's mental health or physical health. i think that's highly inappropriate for the senior officer of the united states military to do that. >> mm-hmm. >> i would just tell you that i meet frequently with the president, and every single time i meet with him, he is just fine. how people interpret that is up to them, but i engage with him frequently, and alert, sound,

does his homework, reads the papers, reads all the read-ahead material, and is very, very engaging in issues of very serious matters of war and peace and life and death. so if the american people are worried about an individual who is, you know, someone who's making decisions of war and peace and has access -- you know, makes the decisions of nuclear weapons and that sort of thing, i think they can rest easy. >> our story with general milley, including his public falling out with former president trump and his thoughts on the war in ukraine, will air on "60 minutes" this sunday. we turn now to a widely publicized pet problem at the white house. the president and first lady forced again to remove one of their beloved german shepherds from the premises after a series of biting incidents. cbs's weijia jiang has more on commander's move from the white house to the doghouse. >> reporter: president biden's dog, commander, was spotted at

the white house on saturday. but after biting someone last monday night, he no longer lives here. cbs news has learned there have been more than 11 biting incidents involving the 2-year-old german shepherd and secret service officers. at least two had to be taken to the hospital for treatment. following an incident last november, one secret service officer emailed a colleague. "my leg and arm still hurts. he bit me twice and ran at me twice." a fellow secret service officer replied, "what a joke. if it wasn't their dog, he would already have been put down." sources tell cbs commander also bit white house residential staff and other workers. the dog, a gift from the president's brother, is the second to be removed from the white house. major bit two people in one month back in 2021. >> he's a sweet dog. 85% of the people there love him. all he does is lick them and wag his tail. >> reporter: dog trainer robert

cabral says canine behavior depends on several factors like genetics, socialization, and training. >> when you're dealing with the president's dog, nobody is going to want to correct the president's dog. and sadly when you're in a position of power, people are going to tell you what you want to hear and not tell you the truth. the truth is this dog needs structure. >> reporter: tonight the white house is not saying whether commander is permanently banned from living here on the grounds or if he'll be returning. the biden dogs are not the first presidential pups to act out either. in just one example in 2008, president george w. bush's scottish terrier barney bit a reporter's finger. norah. >> i remember that. weijia jiang, thank you. the "cbs overnight news" will b
