[ laughter ]

>> just like that, the white house had to reset their sign back to zero. [ laughter ] >> announcer: this morning's "eye opener" is presented by toyota. toyota. let's go places. captioning funded by cbs welcome to "cbs this morning." charlie rose is off, as you know. but i have news, a charlie rose sighting. a woman came up to me and saw him in a restaurant. i said did you talk to him? no, i was afraid i'd bother him. if you see charlie rose out, say hi. >> he likes to engage. anthony mason is with us so you know you're in good hands. we're going to start with this. u.s. military is rushing to launch a defense missile in south korea. north korea released the first video of monday surprised launches. state media said overnight the military was simulating military

strikes on u.s. bases in japan. it launched out in 200 miles east of the japan coast. more than 20,000 american military personnel are stationed. david martin is at the pentagon. good morning. >> good morning, the official north korea news agency says he's launches were conducted by a unit whose mission is to attack u.s. military bases in japan. the launch has triggered an early start to the installation of a new missile defense system on the korean peninsula. >> reporter: american military cargo planes landed in south korea early tuesday morning, delivering the first elements of the missile defense system known as thaad. a controversial system that wasn't scheduled to arrive until later this year. u.s. military officials moved it up after the latest launches by north korea. u.s. and south korea insist t

thaad's purpose is defending missiles in the north. on monday, u.s. satellites detected only one launch at first. later, analysts concluded north korea had actually fired five medium range missiles simultaneously. one failed but the other four flew 600 miles across the korean peninsula and landed 200 miles off the coast of japan. these missile launches were supervised by jong-un himself. he were fired without warning. had they been fired from the east coast, they could have reached japan. they weren't capable of carrying a nuclear weapon and not very accurate, but they caught u.s. intelligence by surprise. president trump spoke with both japan's prime minister and the acting president of south korea by phone yesterday. he emphasized america's ironclad commitment to stand with japan and south korea in the face of the serious threat posed by

north korea. japan's prime minister shinzo abe told reporters president trump said the united states is with japan 100%. north korean officials said the missile launches were in response to a u.s./south korean military exercise which the north claims is preparation for a brpreemptive nuclear strike. that is scheduled for two months and almost certainly the north koreans will launch more mifrls. >> thanks. house republicans who voted dozens of time to repeal the affordable care act have finally unveiled their plan to replace it. the gop plan does not require health coverage. it relies on tax credit to help people buy insurance. it's still unclear how many people will be included in the plan and what kind of coverage will be available. nancy cordes is on capitol hill where two house committees plan

hearings on the legislation today. nancy, good morning. >> good morning. this is a major milestone for republican leaders who have been fending off questions about whether they could even craft a credible alternative to obamacare. however, there are still key details that are missing like the cost of the plan, because republican leaders rushed to get this bill out before some of the numbers crunches was done. >> reporter: the republican bill eliminates many of the main tenets of obamacare, including the individual mand daylight. the employer mandate and most taxes. in their place, a dramatic expansion of health savings accounts plus refundable tax credits to low and middle income americans who don't get insurance through their work. the credits would range from $2,000 to $14,000 a year. >> we're like the ambulance crew that showed up at the scene of the wreck. we're here to clean up the mess.

>> reporter: the bill protects people with preexisting conditions and allow young adults to stay on their parents' plan until age 26. the plan will wait until 2020 to kale back the medicare recessions. >> this would have been very difficult for us. and for a lot of people who right now are getting coverage under standing medicaid for things like drug treatment. >> reporter: the question now, can gop leaders win over conservatives who want deeper cuts to medicaid and oppose the low-income tax credits. without their support, the bill will go nowhere. alden says they should be happy with the changes. >> we're repealing or replacing obamacare. it would be one of the biggest title reforms as president and reform welfare. >> we should know fairly quickly whether republicans of all stripes are going to rally around this plan. and some are predicting that

there will be pretty major changes before everything is said and done. democrats are already slamming the bill. they say it provides much less assistance than obamacare, especially for older americans, and they predict those people will no longer be able to afford insurance. nancy, thank you. white house budget director mick mulvaney joins us from washington. good morning, director. >> good morning. >> when all is said and done, will the republican health care plan cover more americans or less americans than obamacare? >> we really think it will cover more. keep in mind, it's easy to claim success with obamacare when you have a government mandate because you say everybody is covered but is that really the question? the question is if you get sick, you don't care whether or not you have insurance. you care whether you can get health care. that's why obamacare came up short. it created a system that was affordable to buy insurance, but not affordable to actually go to a doctor. we think that the system last

night that we worked with very closely with the house and support provides actually more affordable health care for people so when they do get sick, they can afford to go to the doctor. >> i know you were hoping to do an across the board tax credit for everyone. for families making $75,000 a year or families making $150,000 a year. why the change? >> well, we got input from a bunch of different folks, and some people were uncomfortable as we started the negotiations with allowing folks who were making that to get the tax credit. it was only designed to cover people or assist people who don't get coverage at work. >> director, one of the key changes here is that you're eliminating the government's mandate that you must have health insurance. and replacing it with a penalty for a lapse in coverage. increase in premiums. how exactly is that going to work. >> it's called continuous coverage. it's sort of how we propose to deal with this concept called

adverse selection. one of the problems with obamacare now is that you can wait to buy insurance until after you get sick. what we try and do is give people incentives to go off and say, look, if you're really worried about that, go up and sign now, make sure you can prove that you have continuous coverage. if you do get sick, you can't lose your coverage. >> but if you have a penalty kicking in, if your insurance lapsed, wouldn't that encourage people to get back in the insurance market? >> no, it would encourage people, young healthy groups to get back in the system. that's one of the things of d dismal economic failure. >> what can you tell us about the costs? because right now the congressional budget office hasn't reviewed it. >> right. we don't expect the congressional budget office to give us numbers for the next days. a couple of other agencies, hhs, we've done our own numbers,

we're convinced -- for example, we're giving states for the first time, more control over their medicaid money. we do feel like it's down to the weeds. and allows tremendous long-term savings. >> director, one of the things the republican plan did provide coverage for pre-existing coverage. one of the things that obamacare did is expand prevent tiive car such as mammograms, and contraceptive health screening. >> the dramatic expansion of health savings accounts so that you can use your pre-tax dollars. we've doubled the size of them. nearly doubled the size of them and then dramatically increased where you can use them. so, we do feel people will still have that ability to get that care in a very affordable fashion. >> in the next hour, we'll get a response from the top democrat in the house, nancy pelosi will

be here in studio 57. president trump's new travel ban is expected to lead to more legal battles. the revised executive order he signed yesterday attempts to limit pushback from democrats and immigrants rights groups. the secretary of state, homeland security secretary revealed a meeting without the president. major garrett at the white house. good morning. >> good morning, unlike the first travel ban which took effect immediately this revised version won't go into motion for another nine days. that giving the agency and travelers some time to prepare. president trump signed this executive order in private without reporters or television cameras. the only available evidence, a picture supplied by white house staff. that's a stark contrast to the fanfare of the first travel ban which was drafted with very little congressional consultation. that order generated confusion and prompted outrage at airports in the form of protests. and it was eventually blocked in federal court.

the new court bars new visa being issued for traveler from six muslim majority countries for 90 days. iraq is no longer on the list. current visa holders are exempted. an administration official said 300 people who came to this country as refugees are now the subject into investigations of terrorist-related activities. but anthony, the administration gave no details as to the refugees, if they were from the six countries named or what charges they might ever face. president trump's top aides are backing his unsupported claim that former president obama ordered wiretaps on his campaign headquarters in trump quarter. and the white house says fbi director james comey should also back up the president, even though comey asked the justice department to deny the allegation. press secretary sean spicer says, quote, i have not seen anything aside from another report based on anonymous sources, that that actually happened." jeff pegues is outside of fbi

headquarters in washington. jeff, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, almost three days after senior white house officials asked the justice department to publicly reject the president's claim the silence has been deafening. doj has not talked about this issue, increasing the tension between the white house and the fbi. >> i won't discuss any intelligence conversations that the president has with his intelligence communities on any matter. >> reporter: senior adviser kellyanne conway would not divulge where the president was getting his information, but reiterated mr. trump's assertion that trump tower was wiretapped and the fbi director should tell the public. >> director comey is not shy and he's willing to speak publicly when he feels he should and wants to. >> reporter: the administration has offered no evidence and comey took the unusual step of asking the justice department to publicly refute the claims. law enforcement sources say comey was angered by the

president's tweets by falsely implying agents had broken the law by wiretapping u.s. citizens. it's the latest sign of a strain between the director and the president. just last month it was revealed that the fbi declined a request from the white house to push back on reports of contact between trump associates and russian operatives. >> san fbi director cannot stay in this type of conflict with the president for very long. >> reporter: legal scholar jonathan turley said conflict between the president and director is a potentially dangerous situation for both men. >> you have a president who is asking another branch to investigate his branch. you have an fbi director who is asking another department to correct the president publicly. that's all putting this in rather uncharted and uneasy waters. >> reporter: the president has asked congress to look into the alleged wiretapping. but last night, arizona

republican senator john mccain joined the chorus of lawmakers asking the president to release whatever evidence he has to the american people. norah. >> president can do that. jeff pegues, thank you so much. many people in the midwest are waking up for extensive damage from tornadoes. the dangerous gusts flattened buildings and toppled trees. more than dozen people were hurt. at least 29 tornadoes reports in kansas, illinois, iowa and missouri. our affiliate kctv is near kansas city at the airport. stephenny, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this airport was hit hard by the storm. it damaged several planes, smashed the windows of nearly 20 cars and chipped the paint. and it worsted officials to work overnight to clear the runway and fix a gas leak.

fierce winds, rain and tornadoes tore through the midwest overnight. in oak road, missouri, east of kansas city, tornadoes ripped doors off their hinges and sliced roofs clean off their walls. at least ten people suffered minor injuries. to the north, winds up to 50 miles per hour sent debris flying, smashing in garage doors, shattering windows and downing power lines. matt pinkerton hid in his basement. >> just like bang, bang. and we got a couple of the boards all through the house. it's pretty scary. >> reporter: the storm flipped over planes, damaged hangars and smashed car windows at the executive airport in johnson county kansas. >> wow. >> reporter: in minnesota, a tornado touched down north of minneapolis, damaging homes and knocking out power to thousands. and it wasn't just the rain and wind that caused problems.

>> there goes my car, bro. >> reporter: the storm also dropped hail, the size of golf balls across the region. schools in the area will be closed today. we won't know the full extent of the damage until later today. assessment crews are waiting until daylight before they come out to survey the full extent of the damage. gayle. >> thank you, stephanie. >> there's another one there, there goes my car, bro. u.s. iraqi forces are battling in mosul. for part of the city which is still under isis control. holly williams was with iraqi troops yesterday as they advance closer to the buildings in the face of isis snipers. potential suicide car bombers are part of the wave of isis counterattacks. u.s. troops are working with iraqi forces near the front lines. billionaire jeff bezos will unveil the future of his plans

"usa today" reports on new photos that show the crowds at barack obama inauguration in 2009 in fact bigger than at president trump's. the national parks service released the photos yesterday. the images seem to prove mr. trump was wrong when he claimed that crowds at his ceremony went back to the washington monument. the day after his inauguration, president trump accused the media of lying about the size of the crowd. the "los angeles times" said

pat-downs are being stepped up for security. standardizing procedures when physically screening passengers. the tsa declined to give details. the travel agency is expecting passengers to step up complaints about some of these more invasive searches. i noticed that, too. on friday. >> the sacramento bee said fab's is now flagging fake news. sources of reliable information are listed. facebook relies on user, software and several fact-checking groups to spot falsehoods. and "the new york times" said the white house offered to continue federal funding for planned parenthood if the group stops performing abortions. the president said we won't back down in the face of threats or intimidation. jan crawford is in washington with politics behind the funding model. >> in its media campaigns, planned parenthood emphasizes it

provides general care and testing. only about 3% of its work is abortion services. but the organization says it will not stop performing abortions even if it loses federal funding that makes up about half of its annual revenue. >> they have millions of people going through planned parenthood throughout his presidential campaign donald trump praised planned parenthood's services for women. like other republicans didn't back down on promising to repeal the organization's federal za . subsidies. >> reporter: on monday it was offered that the white house could continue funding planned parenthood if the organization agreed to stop providing abortions. in a statement, mr. tread said i am pro-life and i am deeply admitted to investing in women's health and plan to significantly increase federal funding in support of nonabortion services such as cancer screenings. >> this is the same as we've seen for years.

>> reporter: planned parenthood sec tiff vice president dawn mcgeehan said the proposal holds health care hostage. >> we would never turn our back on any of the women that we serve. and we will certainly not do it for the supposed promise of more money. >> reporter: planned parenthood mainly provides health services including cancer screenings, sexually transmitted disease testing and access to birth control. the organization says none of the roughly $500 million of federal funding it receives goes towards abortion. >> based on what president trump has said because he's doing it understa under the guise of false assessmentment. >> reporter: it would cut up federal funds to planned parenthood for one year. >> we don't want to commit taxpayer funding for abortion. and planned parenthood is the largest abortion provider. >> now, we may be seeing this

change in the president's position because some senate republicans opposed it. so the president's campaign suggesting to stop the federal funding, well, that's also unpopular among voters. one recent poll said 62% are opposed to cutting funding for planned parenthood. norah. >> jan, thank you. planned parenthood tread cecile richards will be riding here in studio 57. amazon ceo jeff bezos is expected to unveil plans today for the future of his space company blue origin. he tweeted the first photos of the main engine of his company's future rocket yesterday. it's designed to take tourists into space and to the man. chip reid is at the washington, d.c. convention center where bezos is expected to make the announcement to show how it could shake up the race to spax x. >> good morning. entrepreneurs and enthusiasts are gathering here to discuss

♪ well, good morning. it's tuesday, march 7th, 2017. and welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is more real news ahead, including the obamacare replacement that republican leaders are backing. we'll ask house minority leader nancy pelosi what democrats will do to try and block that. but first, here's today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> north korea says these launches were conducted by a unit whose mission is to attack u.s. military bases. >> this is a major milestone for republican leaders. however, there are still some key details that are missing. >> will the republican plan cover more americans or less americans than obamacare? >> we really think it will cover more. but that's not really the question. if you get sick, you don't care

if you have insurance. you care whether or not you can get health care. >> the revised version won't go into motion for another eight days that will give agencies and travelers to prepare. >> dozens of tornados. >> it smashed the windows of nearly 20 cars. >> call it the trump effect. stephen colbert has been relentlessly skewering r ining t trump. >> president trump's tweets read terrible. just found out that obama had my wires tapped. this is mccarthyism. there's no way trump knows what mccarthyism is. [ laughter ] he definitely means this mccarthy. [ laughter ] i'm norah o'donnell with gayle king and anthony mason. charlie is off and recovering nicely. united states military is speeding up deployment of a

controversial new missile defense system. after north korea practiced ballistic missile attacks aimed toward u.s. troops. north korea overnight released the first video of monday's launch. four missiles landed in the sea of japan, within range of thousands of american troops stationed in japan. overnight, the military uploaded parts of the anti-missile defense system in south korea. president trump vowed to protect u.s. allies, south korea and japan in call to their leaders just last night. house republicans have unveiled a highly anticipated plan to repeal and replace obamacare. the american health care act removings the individual mandates to have insurance. instead, people who let their coverage lapse face a 30% increase in premiums. it also drops any mandate for employers. the proposal provides tax credits to help pay for premiums. some under the age of 30 would get $2,000. some 60 and older would get $4,000. the full credit is only for individuals making less than

$75,000 a year. and families earning less than $150,000. the gop plan would also end medicaid expansion in 2020. and states would receive federal funds for each person enrolled. some obamacare rules would stay. insurers will have to cover preexisting conditions. and children can stay on a parent's plan until age 26. on twitter this morning, president trump said, quote, our wonderful new health care bill is now out for review and negotiation. obamacare is a complete and total disaster. is imploding fast. >> democratic congresswoman nancy pelosi is the house minority leader. she was speaker of the house when the affordable care act passed in 2010. congresswoman, welcome to the table. >> good morning. >> mick mill veulvaney this is d

obamacare. >> just when you see it all republicans go to more extreme place. this will make millions of people, 10, 15, 20 million people off of having health insurance. it will be the biggest transfer of wealth from low-income people to wealthy people in our country. you don't think of it that way. show us the numbers. the numbers with the people, the numbers as to how many people will be thrown off. it couldn't be worse. >> but the thing that does keep in place some elements of obamacare, coverage for preexisting conditions, allowing children to remain on their parents' plan until they're 26 years old. no lifetime cap. so isn't it better than at least scrapping the whole thing? >> no, it isn't. and there are reasons. because in order do those things act together.the affordable care and maybe that gives us a great

opportunity for affordable care. but you have to have insurance. they don't talk about how much it's going to cost. preexisting conditions coverage is very, very expensive. you talk about $2,000, $4,000. we're not talking about something that is manageable. >> but you don't see the insurance companies lining up against this. why not? >> well, it just came out a little while ago. by the way, we'll have a big bonus for insurance company ceos. that's unfortunate because the ceos -- i sense the insurance companies have been trying to be responsible. >> the midlevel affordable care act are estimated to increase 25%. you can say that obamacare is working? >> yes, oh, please, thank you for the question. here's the thing. take it back to before, take it back to before, before we had the affordable care act which is what i call it with all due respect to the president.

before premiums were soaring. you couldn't even get insurance. the affordable care act, in some instances there will be some increases, not across the board. but in some instances there will be increases but nothing compared to what it has been without the affordable care act. and the coverage is far superior. all of the benefits. so, the goal of the affordable care act was to improve benefits, to expand coverage as to who is included and to lower costs. it has succeeded in every one of those things. and it has contained the interest of costs in the way -- in the 50 years that's been, they haven't seen such containment of costs. >> do you feel that the two sides can work together because the democrats can say this, republicans can say this, we can do this for days and days. at some point, don't the two have to sit down and say what can we do to figure this out? >> point is what they're doing

on the whole systemic -- >> i hear that -- >> -- to try to get as many people as possible. if they want to talk about how we could do some things to improve the affordable care act, we certainly can do that. but you don't do it by pulling the plug. you mentioned in your presentation that there -- what they're doing to medicare. very, very destructive. very destructive. maybe we should have a side-by-side of what this means in a person's life. because that's really what's important here. not policy. but what it means in a person's life. and this is a very, very bad -- very bad one. the one that the president says -- he doesn't even have the faintest idea of what he's talking about. >> let me ask you about it, you are the longest serving member of the house intelligence committee, right? >> yes. >> as you know, the president has alleged that president obama

ordered the wiretapping of trump tower. you have seen evidence of that in your role on intelligence committee? >> once again, the president doesn't know what he's talking about, because, first of all, the president can't do that. maybe he's projecting that's something he'd like to do. but that isn't what president obama did or could do. >> because it would have to go through the justice department and then the courts? >> yes. he's the deflector in chief. he wants to deflect this because of the russian connection, the political, or financial to him, he wants to deflect the fact that the ban is unpopular on muslim chunts countries for th community. he wants to deflect the fact he has no jobs or infrastructure. >> do you think fbi director james comey should speak publicly on this? >> he did.

he has spoken out. he said they should retract that to protect the integrity of the fbi. he has spoken against it. but the justice department seems to be missing in action. and other aspects of the justice department. this is, again, before the saevn days -- by the time president obama was in office four weeks he signed a bill that produced and saved 4 million jobs. we've seen nothing in terms of any initiative on of the part of donald trump. >> you think he's been ineffective? >> totally. nothing. except tell us, deflector in chief. you know what, he's in charge, he's responsible. he should be held accountable for what he does. and not being passed off as --

since the moment you started your business, you started a foundation. what's the new goal about in terms of making this campaign to embrace ambition? >> you know, i think it's such a harmful stereotype. we need for once and all get rid of it. when a man is ambitious, it's celebrated and when a woman is ambitious it's distasteful. >> she's a bitch and ruthless. >> uncomfortable it's in beginning -- >> i'm guilty of it. the first article ever written on me. someone called me up and said, i loved the article and you shied away from the words ambition. 13 years later i realize it's true. it's not something that i was proud of back then but i want other people to have the confidence to embrace their goals. it doesn't have to be in the workforce. it can be being a mom. >> tilt is a terrible thing but somebody's got to do it. what are you hoping women do?

>> what do you see happening in the workforce in that regard? >> well, i think i've seen it, just i can tell you, in terms of myself. i have seen the sort of pat on my back as it's okay. >> well, the introduction as a female ceo. >> that was the best. i got up for an event and someone introduced me as here is tory burch, the female ceo. i started to think about it and i laughed. and i said i've never heard a man be introduced as a mamale c. it's about equality. it's not about disliking men. it's about equal rights for women. >> what are the different ways that women can embrace ambition? it's not necessarily being a ceo of a company? >> no, bought i think it's own your confidence. own your skills. be okay to ask for a raise. it's a learned skill. i think we've all been trained.
