3:10 am
some of the problems mr. trump promised to solve last night don't actually exist. the president said correctly that 94 million americans are out of the labor force, but that's not an unemployment figure. our research department found that in that official number, about 15 million are students, 44 million are retired, and 28 million are disabled or caring for someone at home. if 94 million people were looking for a job, the unemployment rate would be 40% rather than the 4.8% that it is now. in the run-up of stock prices since election day, the dow has now been pushed above 21,000 for the first time. the blue chip index gained more
3:11 am
than 300 points today to close at 21,115. jim axelrod is here with more about what's called "the trump rally." jim? >> reporter: well, scott, we've been watching the market soar more than 15% since donald trump won the presidency. as it climbed its way first past 19,000, then 20,000, and now 21,000. but this is the first time since election day we've seen a single-day gain of more than 300 points. what's going on here? well, last night's speech only deepened the optimism that corporate earnings will continue to climb, especially with mr. trump's pro-business stance. the combination of proposals, corporate tax cuts, the loosening of regulations is exactly what wall street wants to hear. throw in a proposed $1 trillion of infrastructure spending the president discussed last night and signals the fed may soon raise interest rates to keep growth smooth, and you'll end up with a dow jones industrial average somewhere it has never
3:12 am
been before, over 21,000. as an investor once put it, short term the market is a voting machine. people vote on what they think will happen economically, and right now, scott, they're thinking very positive thoughts. >> jim axelrod for us. jim, thank you. during the president's address last night, he introduced the nation to carryn owens, the widow of navy seal ryan owens. owens was killed in a counter- terrorism raid in yemen 30 days ago. that mission did not go as planned. mr. trump gave the order, but he has not accepted the responsibility. here's david martin. >> reporter: rarely has someone struggled so hard and so publicly to keep it together as carryn owens, widow of navy s.e.a.l. ryan owens. for one minute and 38 seconds, one of the longest standing ovations in memory, she fought back tears and looked heavenward, apparently speaking to her late husband.
3:13 am
>> ryan is looking down right now, you know that, and he's very happy, because i think he just broke a record. >> reporter: upset that her father-in-law had publicly questioned the need for the operation in which her husband was killed, carryn owens put a heartbroken face on the controversial commando raid against the al qaeda stronghold in yemen. president trump approved the operation after barely a week in office. but he subsequently tried to distance himself from it. the commander-in-chief putting the onus on his military advisers and describing it as a piece of unfinished business leftover from the obama administration. >> well, this was a mission that was started before i got here. they explained what they wanted to do, the generals, who were very respected. my generals are the most respected we've had in many decades, i believe, and they lost ryan. >> he was killed in the initial exchange that took place on the objective. >> reporter: general joseph votel, commander of the u.s. forces in the middle east,
3:14 am
monitored the raid in real-time. as owens was fatally wounded, a medevac aircraft crash landed and an air strike killed some two dozen civilians, all in an effort to capture cell phones, laptops and hard drives that contained intelligence on the al qaeda network in yemen. >> we accomplished the mission that we went there for. we certainly paid a very heavy price for this. >> reporter: nowhere was that price more in evidence than on the face of carryn owens last night before a packed house chamber and a national television audience. david martin, cbs news, the pentagon. as poignant as his salute to ryan owens was, mr. trump did not mention other americans fighting overseas, nor very much about foreign policy at all. here's margaret brennan. >> reporter: scott, the president's speech left diplomats and allies wondering just how president trump views america's role in the world. he made no mention of the thousands of u.s. troops in
3:15 am
afghanistan and iraq or the small number in syria, and he did not explain why he's expanding the fight against al qaeda in yemen. there was a statement of support for israel, but no explanation of his repeated calls for a new relationship with russia. that's been worrying european allies in nato, who president trump again called on to spend more on their own defense. now, here at the state department, many see that white house proposal to cut 30% or more from the foreign aid budget as a sign that the president does not value diplomacy. rex tillerson, the secretary of state, did release a statement today clarifying that u.s. policy is still to promote freedom, democracy, and stability. but scott, none of those terms, were in mr. trump's speech. >> margaret brennan for us. stability is exactly what a u.s. nato ally is praying for, but sharing a border with russia, estonia fears that vladimir putin has been emboldened by his conquest in ukraine.
3:16 am
elizabeth palmer is in estonia. >> reporter: these may look like soldiers. actually they're ordinary men and women with day jobs who volunteer in the estonian defense league, a kind of citizens militia. here they're competing in an annual exercise. [ gunfire ] more than 13,000 of them prepare to rise up if estonia were attacked. right now they believe their aggressive neighbor to the east, russia, is enemy number one, especially after its invasion of ukraine. estonia has a professional military, too. it was on display in this weekend's independence day parade. this small country spends big on defense. it's a fully paid-up member of nato, and that buys it powerful friends. this year u.s. soldiers deployed to estonia were part of the parade, and for the very first
3:17 am
time they brought tanks. american tanks on the streets of estonia's capital send a powerful signal to the people here, that the u.s. will stand by its nato allies. they also send a very clear signal to the kremlin. that signal -- a russian attack on an estonia backed by nato would be dangerous. >> estonia is not alone. >> reporter: margus tsahkna is estonia's defense minister. >> we're sending the message to russia very clearly that we are able to speak the same language as mr. putin does, and it's a language that we are ready to fight. >> reporter: and staying ready means constant training. on saturday near the town of voru, local women in the defense league were learning to use gps equipment. for ruth madla, it's about learning new skills. she doesn't really expect the russians to invade but -- you're part of this force. >> yes.
3:18 am
>> reporter: that sends a message. >> yes. maybe it's good to have the message. >> reporter: that message to russia is loud and clear. estonia is spending record amounts on its military, and the defense leagues have never had more volunteers. elizabeth palmer, cbs news, tallinn, estonia. still ahead, the ceo of uber gets into a heated argument with one of his drivers. i'm joy bauer, and as a nutritionist i know probiotics can often help. try digestive advantage. it is tougher than your stomach's harsh environment, so it surivies a hundred times better than the leading probiotic. get the digestive advantage.

an uber driver got into an argument with a passenger who happened to be uber's ceo here's ben tracy. >> reporter: this video obtained by bloomberg news shows uber ceo travis kalanick swaying to the music in the back seat of an uber black car, but at the end of the ride, he also gets an earful from the driver, identified as fawzi kamel. >> reporter: kamel tells kalanick drastic cuts in uber rates hurt him financially.
3:22 am
>> reporter: in a memo to uber employees last night, kalanick apologized, writing -- "it's clear this video is a reflection of me. i must fundamentally change as a leader and grow up. this is the first time i've been willing to admit that i need leadership help and i intend to get it." lately, the company that made it possible to catch a cab using an app can't seem to catch a break. last week a lawsuit was filed alleging uber stole trade secrets for the development of its self-driving cars, which uber denies. and uber recently launched an internal investigation after an ex-employee leveled allegations of sexual harassment. we asked uber for an interview and they declined. i did take three uber rides in san francisco today, all three drivers well aware of the company's problems. scott, one driver told me he thinks the ceo should get himself a private chauffeur. >> ben tracy. up next, a hollywood ending for the winners of the worst

we're giving michigan voters the last word on trump's address. mr. trump won michigan by fewer than 11,000 votes. it was the state's slimmest margin of victory in a presidential race since 1940. how do they like him now? here's dean reynolds. >> reporter: among those who gathered at the hideout brewery in grand rapids last night to
3:28 am
watch the president's speech, shirley hampton needed no convincing. when you saw him up there, did you see a leader? >> i do. i do. i see a man who stands behind his word. the most important thing that i love about him is he keeps telling everybody, we got to band together. >> reporter: but upstairs damien sanchez and chris peterson disagreed. >> who can argue against unity? but has he been a divisive president to this point? of course he has. >> i don't think unity should be an objective. i think where we disagree with him, we ought to be strong in that resistance. >> look at this place. isn't this incredible? >> reporter: grand rapids was the final stop on the trump campaign last november just hours before he won the state. >> yeah, we have cinnamon or raisin. >> reporter: at breakfast today we found an answer to the democrats' question about who could support donald trump. there are people like leon alderman. >> everything trump has said and everything he's done so far i like. >> repeal and replace obamacare.
3:29 am
>> the media doesn't like him. hollywood doesn't like him. what more could you ask for? >> reporter: andrew dine praised the speech with a kind of back-handed compliment. >> i think that it was a breath of fresh air compared to how donald trump usually is in the last month or so. i think he was much more professional and grounded. >> reporter: presidential? >> absolutely, absolutely. >> reporter: for any new president, that would be a step in the right direction. dean reynolds, cbs news, grand rapids. that's the "overnight news" for this thursday. for some of you, the news continues. for others, check back with us a little bit later for the morning news and do not miss "cbs this morning." from the broadcast center in new york city, i'm scott pelley. -- captions by vitac -- www.vitac.com
3:30 am
this is the "cbs overnight news." welcome to the "overnight news." i'm tony dokoupil. president trump is getting high marks for his first-ever address to a joint session of congress, at least from the american public. a cbs news poll found 82% say president trump's speech was, well, presidential. that includes 97% of republicans and more than half of democrats polled. the president's positive tone and call for unity was a welcome change for many. for others like house speaker nancy pelosi, it was a bait and switch. long on rhetoric and short on specifics. major garrett reports. >> it begins as of now. we think we're going to have tremendous success. >> reporter: president trump met with republican congressional looep -- leadership after
3:31 am
delivering a speech that was, by standards, quiet, conventional, and non-confrontational. >> a new national pride is sweeping across our nation, and a new surge of optimism is placing impossible dreams firmly within our grasp. >> reporter: a cbs news poll found 61% of viewers were more optimistic about a trump presidency after the speech, but there are questions about what policies he plans to pursue. >> i believe that real and positive immigration reform is possible. >> reporter: in a lunch meeting with tv anchors tuesday, the president said he was open to providing legal status to millions of undocumented immigrants. he said nothing about that to congress. on "cbs this morning," norah o'donnell pressed vice president mike pence for details. >> he intends to build a wall, to have the kind of internal enforcement that puts the safety of the american people first, that identifies the criminal element. >> reporter: we've heard that. the question was whether he is open to pathway for undocumented immigrants here, or are you just not there yet?
3:32 am
>> well, i think as the president said in the campaign, we'll see. >> reporter: senate democratic leader chuck schumer. >> this is the third time he has mentioned to people, oh, let's do reform, and then the next day his advisers, his base say pull it back. this speech was vehemently anti-immigrant. one topic in the speech making political waves on capitol hill, his plan to repeal and replace obamacare. cbs' nancy cordes has that. >> reporter: republicans met today to finalize their obamacare replacement plan, after the president laid out the broad strokes last night. >> we should help americans purchase their own coverage through the use of tax credits and expanded health savings accounts. >> reporter: in some ways, that resembles obamacare, which helps americans pay for insurance with a combination of income-based tax credits and subsidies. but the tax credits in a recently leaked draft of the gop plan are based solely on age. the wealthy and the poor get the same amount.
3:33 am
>> lower income people would get significantly less help under these republican tax credits. >> reporter: larry levitt is with the kaiser family foundation. which has been studying the republican proposal. >> so far these plans would likely result in significant reductions in the number of people insured. >> reporter: the vice president made the opposite case today. >> no one is going to fall through the cracks in this. >> reporter: and republicans argue that a simpler plan with fewer government mandates will unleash competition. >> the principles are good principles. they're the right ones. >> reporter: one big question -- what would republicans do about medicaid? obamacare expanded it by 11 million americans at a cost of a trillion dollars. south carolina's lindsey graham. >> if we repackage obamacare and call it something else, we haven't succeeded. vice president mike pence is denying reports that the commando raid in yemen turned up no significant intelligence. that raid played a central role in the president's congressional address.
3:34 am
david martin reports. >> reporter: rarely has someone struggled so hard and so publicly to keep it together as carryn owens, widow of navy s.e.a.l. ryan owens. for one minute and 38 seconds, one of the longest standing ovations in memory, she fought back tears and looked heavenward, apparently speaking to her late husband. >> ryan is looking down right now, you know that, and he's very happy, because i think he just broke a record. >> reporter: upset that her father-in-law had publicly questioned the need for the operation in which her husband was killed, carryn owens put a heartbroken face on the controversial commando raid against the al qaeda stronghold in yemen. president trump approved the operation after barely a week in office. but he subsequently tried to distance himself from it. the commander-in-chief putting the onus on his military advisers and describing it as a piece of unfinished business leftover from the obama

3:36 am
worries day and night what vladamir putin is planning. elizabeth palmer went there. >> reporter: these may look like soldiers. actually, they're ordinary men and women with day jobs who volunteer in the estonian defense league, a kind of citizens militia. here, they're competing in an annual exercise.

3:40 am
emotional highlight of president trump's address to a joint session of congress involved carry owens, the wife of slain navy s.e.a.l. ryan owens. he was the commando killed in a raid in yemen approved by the president just days into his administration. >> ryan's legacy is etched into eternity. thank you. [ applause ] >> in were several standing ovations as the president spoke of owens. one of them continued for more than a minute and a half. norah o'donnell discussed this and other topics with vice president mike pence. >> we are here in the ceremonial office of the vice president of the united states. mr. vice president, thank you so much for having us. >> good morning. >> we just showed that incredibly moving moment last night when the president honored
3:41 am
navy s.e.a.l. william ryan owens and his widow, carryn owens. how did that tribute come about? >> well, the president reached out to the family after ryan owens fell in what was, as the president said last night, a highly successful operation that obtained significant intelligence information. but i was there in the oval office when the president spoke to her at length. the president traveled to dover air force base to be with the family, and he felt very strongly about acknowledging her courageous husband. just as much acknowledging the family. because as you know, those that serve in the military serve as families, are supported by families. the tribute last night was the likes of which i've never seen. i was in the congress for 12 years. i really don't remember a sustained and proper tribute and
3:42 am
applause. >> both republicans and democrats for more than two minutes. she kept looking up almost to heaven. i know your wife was sitting next to her. >> she did. and i have to tell you, i don't think there was a dry eye in the house to see her looking up, expressing words of love for her husband. and afterwards, the president and i spent a little bit more time with her and reminded her that the congress represents the entire country and that the tribute that her husband and her family received was really how all the american people feel about him and those that serve. >> i know the president made a point last night of pointing out, he said that raid gathered "large amounts of vital intelligence." have you seen some of that intelligence? what does that help us with? >> we were briefed again yesterday by secretary mattis, giving us a summary of the intelligence that was gathered.
3:43 am
this was a strike that was directed at obtaining information about al qaeda operating out of yemen and we do believe it will lay a foundation for victories in the future. but it was -- i think it was all together fitting that the president paid tribute to that courageous navy s.e.a.l., to his wonderful family. in the context of the speech where he put the security of the american people first, he made a commitment to rebuilding the military after years of cutbacks. and the support for that. i truly believe it will be part of the bipartisan accomplishments that this congress can achieve. >> nbc has reported that there was no significant intelligence gathered from that raid. is that wrong? >> that is wrong. i can tell you that secretary mattis, as recently as yesterday, confirmed again to the administration that there was significant intelligence that was gathered, that will lead to american success and to
3:44 am
the safety and security of the american people. >> let me ask you about immigration. you guys have take an hard line on immigration. build the wall, tougher enforcement. the president signaled yesterday in a meeting that he was open to a legal pathway for undocumented immigrants. are you on board with that, as well? are you open to such a pathway? >> well, let me say that last night was not only a great speech but a great night for america. because what the american people saw was a president laying out the specifics of an agenda that he ran on and communicating both his strength and his heart in expressing that. and whether it be with repealing or replacing obamacare, tax relief in the economy or whether it be with immigration. i think the american people heard -- they really heard the president in full, and last night he made it very clear that
3:45 am
he intends to build a wall, to have the kind of internal enforcement that puts the safety of the american first, that identifies the criminal element that is a part of -- >> believe me, we have heard that. the question though, was whether he is open to a pathway for the undocumented immigrants here, or are you just not there yet? >> i think as the president said in the campaign, we'll see. we'll see. he gave that famous speech in arizona where he literally said look, we have to do first things first. we've got to secure our border. the president has said many times that a nation is not a nation without borders and it's not secure. so we'll secure or border with that wall. we'll strengthen our laws, provide more -- not only border agents, more immigrations and customs. these are things the president has put into motion. once we do that, just like he said in arizona that with regard to those remaining in this country, that we'll look at
3:46 am
options, we'll engage the congress. i think the overall tone of the president's speech last night is frankly just the same as i see every day. president trump is someone who leads by collaboration. he brings people together. and last night he really challenged the congress to come together on behalf of the country and solve these intractable problems that we've frankly ignored for decades. >> you said the trump you see every day is the trump the american people saw last night. let me ask you about some additional policies, because the new executive order on the travel ban is coming out and cbs learned that iraqi citizens may not be included in the president's revised ban. is that the case and why so? >> i think we're evaluating both the ninth circuit's decision and other considerations. in the days ahead we'll have a revised executive order. the president is determined to defend the first executive order
3:47 am
in the courts, which we continue to believe is in his purview and his presidential authority. but also to take that authority that is undisputed in the law with a new executive order. we live in a dangerous world. i was just in europe meeting with leaders of many of our allies. we all recognize the threat of terrorism in the world and president trump is absolutely determined to do what we can in this moment to ensure the safety and security of the american people, put into place new vetting procedures, and the revised executive order will be reflective of that. and the president's best judgment. >> and will more countries be added to that? >> well, i don't want to get ahead of the deliberation. i know that through a variety of agencies, they're putting the finishing touches on that executive order and it should be out in the next few days. >> last night's speech, did that signal a change? it was different in tone from the inaugural address.
3:48 am
did it signal a change? >> i just think there's something very special about a joint session of congress. there's a moment where the president has the opportunity to speak in a completely unfiltered way to people across the country. and what i can tell people as someone who has worked with the president every day since the election and gotten to know him very well, that was all him. what we have in president trump is someone who has broad shoulders, he's a fighter, willing to fight for what he believes in. he's got a big heart. i think the american people saw that last night. and my hope is that members of congress in both parties will look at the agenda that the president laid out, work with this administration to ensure the security and the prosperity of the american people. >> let the legislating begin. >> that's right. >> that's right. all right, mr. vice president, thank you so much. >> thank you, norah. >> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. my sweethearts gone sayonara.

3:52 am
voted for hillary clinton, and one didn't vote for either one of them. frank later discussed it all on "cbs this morning." >> we did watch what he said tonight. tell me what you thought was better, what exceeded your expectations. >> he was conciliatory. he acted presidential. i think that's a very good first step. >> what else? >> i like the fact that he brought everyone together, democrats and republicans, regarding veterans and taking care of our veterans. that's not a political issue. regardless of what you think, these are people that served in the military. they're down on their luck financially. >> he did not address the problem with the v.a. the v.a. is not doing anything. very little for vets. >> and we all want to see a change. that was the point. there has to be a change, and it's for both sides. >> i do believe he will take action to change it. >> he went from the hate crimes, which i was concerned he wouldn't talk about and he did, unity, and he went on how to try
3:53 am
to come up with solutions to replace obamacare. >> he talked about the hate crimes and the desecration of the jewish cemeteries, which is horrible. he neglected to mention the desecration of the indian burial ground with the pipeline. >> he said, my job is to be the president of all americans. can you ask for anything -- >> did he deliver that tonight? >> yes, he did. >> what are we going to see tomorrow? that's what we need to be watching for. up until now, we haven't seen anything like this, and he's spoken in broad platitudes. who doesn't want our kids to be safe and healthy and have a good education? >> well, frank luntz joins us from los angeles. the president for the most part is getting rave reviews for his speech last night, including
3:54 am
that he sounded presidential and looked presidential. what was the overall response from your group? >> out of 21 people, 16 out of 21 say he exceeded expectations. only one person who spoke in that little clip felt that he fell short. the reason why is that he seemed to appeal universally to republicans and democrats. to treat the country as a whole rather than looking at individual groups. trump people felt that he kept his promises and hasn't backed down. and our clinton people felt that he is making an effort to reach across the aisle. and what's fascinating to me is they watched the democratic response as well. and they were rather critical, because they thought that was too partisan. one more thing. it's interesting that they always talk about what the president didn't say. even though the speech lasts what, 45, 50 minutes. so often the american people are listening for what they don't hear and that's what they complain about. ng pc-17 f1
