night. u it looks like as firefighters fight to beat back the flames. >> it's been snowing steadily overnight. some of this region has reported 15 inches. >> all oas to the canadian border. we're talking over a 2,000-mile swath. >> you can see palestinians have lit some tires on fire behind me. they are throwing rocks toward israeli forces. >> forces tell us franks had asked his aides whether they would ever be able to serve as pregnancy surrogates. >> president trump's attending the opening of the civil rights museum is triggering protests. >> amazon is creating a shopping profile for your cat. yeah. all you have to do is go to amazon and write i am single.

i'm gayle king with norah o'donnell and bianna golodryga. firefighters in southern california are now battling six raging wildfires. two new fires erupted yesterday including one in san diego county mchlt theiren 220 square miles of southern california burned this week. these fires have destroyed more than 500 homes and buildings. >> reporter: more than 500,000 people are under evacuation orders. at least one person is dead. an astronaut aboard the international space station took these photographs. look at the plumes extended over the pacific ocean. >> incredibl firefighters last battled to saving homes like this one in bonsall, california. 1,300 national guard members have been called to help with the fires.
8:03 am
carter evans is in california where the lilac fire is burning. carter, goodorni. morning. this home caug fast night. it hasn't been burning for 12 hours. there is nothing left. the fire quickly exploded in size. it was blown by winds gusting up to 30 miles an hour. at least sex people including two firefighters were injured by the flames yesterday. at least a dozen structures have been destroyed including one neighborhood where nearly one block of homes caught fire. at a nearby training facility hundreds of horses had to be set free. nearly 25 died while trying to escape. more than 115,000 acres have burned and there are boys that shifting winds caught cause it to spread even more. one of the reasons it's been so bad is because of the heavy
8:04 am
rains last year and this year. that created a lot more plant growth which has since dried out and become fuel for all of these flames. there are about 5,700 firefighters working on all of these fires right now in southern california, and the winds are what are driving these flames right now and these windy conditions are expected to continue through tonight, bianna, and in some cases into the weekend. >> we should commend the brave firefighters risking their lives 24/7. carter, thank you. congress passed an emergency spending bill last night to keep the government open for two more weeks. it gives lawmakers until december 22nd to reach a long-term deal. that's just one issue they want to address before the upcoming holiday break. another issue is tax reform. the house and senate may need to settle things. john thune is named to the tax reform conference committee to negotiate.
8:05 am
good to have you here. >> good morning. nice to be here. >> let me show you the poll. americans see these tax cuts as overwhelmingly benefiting corporations and the wealthy. as a matter of fact, two-thirds think corporations won't use it to reinvest. do you have any research? >> it may vary how much they put back in the business, how much they distribute in dividends or raise wages or benefits. it's a big amount. all the analysis has bun done that reducing the corporate race, the business rate is going to flow back into higher wages. we've seen an increase of 14%. >> you've even suggested to corporations they could use the tax cut money to give their
8:06 am
workers a raise. we've heard some corporations say, no, they're going to pass it on to the shareholders. is there anything that can be done or anything to convince them that, you know, it meet be a good thing. >> of course, aisle encourage it but in a free market economy, they're going to make the final decision. giving it to theeholders, that's going to benefit. >> but not the workers. >> anybody who sees their tax burden reduced by that amount if they want to grow and expand their operation are going have to hire more workers and in a competitive market, we think that raises wages for our country. >> one is the children's health insurance program, chp. there c.h.i.p. they're saying please save kids'
8:07 am
health care. it ran out in november. it will run out next year if it's not replenished. 13,000 in your state alone. why can't congress come together when it comes to providing health care for our youngest? >> we will. that's something everybody agrees on. c.h.i.p. first got authorized when i joined congress. it will hitch a ride on whatever year the spending bill we will do. as you noted if my state, for example, the impact isn't going to do be felt next year, so we have a little bit of a window. i think it will be done next week. >> a lot of worried families out there. >> right. >> let me ask you this. we did a median household check where the average income your state is $51,000. they would pay 1.4. the wealthiest would pay 4%
8:08 am
less. that's based on the senate tax plan. so what would you say to the middle-class citizen in south dakota saying why are they getting a bigger cut? >> well, if you look at, norah, for example the tax foundation has done an analysis of the average cut in my state. i ask people to sit down and look at your own tax circumstances, plug into your numbers to your tax return. if you double the standard deduction, the child tax credit, if you get the benefit of the lower rates, an average family of four with a combined annual income of $73,000 a year is going to see a $2,300 difference. everybody's circumstances are going to be different but if you're on the lower en, i think you're going to soo a dramatically lower rate. >> what about those losing taxes they counseled on, the stujts loan interest. all of those could really hit
8:09 am
people. >> well, there will be fewer itemizers. although many of those deductions that you mentioned are kept in the senate version of that bill. if you want to itemize, you can porganizations.itable, those could -- if you choose to itemize, you could still take advantage of that. i think where they're going to benefit is the reduction of rates, particularly if you look at the senate bill and how that floats through the different income categories, but everybody's tax circumstances are different. i encourage people to sit down and figure out the impact. >> i ask you to address the concerns over adding to the deficit. i know the numbers are not final. but we had senator bernie sanders yesterday. i know he's on the opposite political spectrum than you. >> bernie had a different view than i? >> he did. >> in order to balance the budget, there be be coming cuts
8:10 am
in medicare and social security. can you guarantee that those cuts won't be made? >> what i guarantee is if we make reforms and if we do, we need to make entitlement programs sustainable, those are going to be reforms that might, for example, say ls rate of growth over some of those programs over a period of time. one of the ways you deal with the deficit and debt is to deal with it. if we get the economy growing at 2.5% as opposed to 1.5% and 2%, you're going to get more government rev now. it generates about $3 trillion. so one of the ways to deal with a problem that bernie's identified, yes, we've got to restrain spending and you accomplish that by reforming the dress code. >> can we return to the resignation of al frank condition. he says the irony is not lost on him, that the man who bragged about his history of sexual
8:11 am
assault now sits inhe oval office. what do you say to that now that it looks like al franken might be coming to senate? >> there are many across the industry learning there are consequences of bad behavior. what happened yesterday is unfortunate for the senate but i think the discussion we're having is long overdue and i think it points out action is needed. we can't continue to accept the status quo or anyone else. >> you have called for the recall of roy moore. >> if he comes to washington, he'll immediately be under an ethics cloud cloud. there could be different things the ethics committee could conclude. but it's a huge distraction. the simplest wises him to do in the best there of the country and party is to step
8:12 am
aside and allow another republican to get into the race. >> yet the rncs are supporting him. >> that's unfortunate. i don't condone that. i think they made the right in the first place. >> you look as good in person as you do on tv. >> thanks, gayle. >> you're welcome. cramps can be a very big obstacle for athletes. dana jacobson looks at a very workable solution. >> how what's in here affects those on the football field. coming up on

reportedly a $6.6 billion industry and many rely on brands like gatorade or power aid to help. but now they're turning to something in a very different section of the supermarket. dana. really? >> it is true. they're drinking pickle brian. experts will tell you it may work, but you may be surprised by how it works. after a long practice, it's not what you expect to see. maryland football players looking to replenish, reaching for pickles, like linebacker jermaine carter. >> i like to eat the pickle and then drink the juice. >> reporter: that juice called brian. >> do you notice a different from using the pickle. >> i definitely. you don't cramp as much. you feel more hydrated.
8:19 am
>> brian is that yellowy pickly juice. >> it's a way to recover and replenish. >> reporter: rick court thinks it's safe if they find it effective. >> is it better than some of the other things that people are using? >> i don't know if it's better, but it definitely gives it a twist of a different taste and flavor for guys. i do think some guys swear by it more. >> blake coleman swears by it. the new jersey devils player gained attention when he was handed a jar of pickles as he came off the ice. he started drinking pickle brian in college when his teammate suggested it. >> you have to think this is a little bit crazy. >> >> yeah. it's still kratzy. but it works. it's something about tricking your brain. >> it turns out he's right.

the net worth of u.s. households reached $96 trillion. household welt climbed amid solid business and come super confidence and a stronger labor market and americans are saving more. napele's traditional art of making it. the u.n.'s corporate organization. they argue the art of preparing the dough and baking it in the oven was part of its tradition. it's one of 33 traditions added to unesco's national list. students are diving into come puder code. students completed a so-called hour of code this week. the lessons are part of a campaign created by code.org. it's working to offer an interest in computer and science communication. nearly 500 million students and educators all around the world
8:32 am
have learned basic computer coding through the program since code.org toby is here at the table. we should thank you and your twin brother for this. >> thank you very much for having me. >> we're glad you're here r, hotty. they're scared and you say don't be scared. >> what you learn in one hour -- you don't become a coder in one hour. what you learn is it isn't as intimidating as what you see on tv. that's not how it's done. >> you taught yourself coding at the age of 10? >> the reason we're trying to
8:33 am
get it into schools is many have the opportunity to learn but most aren't going to be self-taught. it should be integrated into the school system so if they want to, they can take the chance. >> i know you pushed the trump administration to redirect $200 million into this and silicon valley follows with another 300. how does that half a billion in computer science funding translate into coding? >> so the real -- the real use of that marijuana, what's important to do, is to help america's teachers to learn how to teach computer science. if you go to the school and ask why they don't teach it, they'll say we don't have teach whoers know it. you have to start somewhere. it's to train existing teacher, math teachers, english teachers, so they can teach a little bit of it as part of the school day. >> one of the problems you're hearing from the corporate world when it comes to hiring, they say the jobs are here but they
8:34 am
don't have anybody trained for the jobs. no offense to the math industry, they say don't deed trigonometry. teach coding. these are the courses and skill sets that the children's of tomorrow's generation are going to need rchl you starting to see that change in school districts around the country yet? >> we're not saying don't teach something. just to be clearing we don't want to pick fights with trig nomcy. >> but, hadi, some would say coding is more useful than trig nomty. >> certainly more jobs and money. but in education you want a background in all sorts of things. we want to offer it as an option. the majority of the schools don't offer it as a choice to teach computer science. so if your child is in a school that doesn't offer it, you'll never have a chance. >> what's your explanation to let people know what coding is. we've all heard of the word. there are a lot of numbers. what exactly does it do? >> writing code is giving a
8:35 am
computer ichb strukzs for something you want to do. if you ever have an idea they should build an app for blah, blah, blah. first you should think, i should build an app. do it using coding. >> we call that female empowerment. you talk about that in silicon valley specifically. more stem jobs for women in particular. science, technology, math, engineering. you hear organizations like girls who code. what are you doing specifically. it's important for the guys on how to do it, but what are you doing to taylor women, to bring them on to the sector as well? >> this is so important and part of why we're trying to get this into the school system, when you teach something that's part of school, you get much more balanced. mathematics in hydrant schools is equal between girls and boys, 49, 51. we've just announced 10 million girls do it.
8:36 am
if only 1% of the girls were coding on code.org and went on to study it in college, it would disparage men. >> i love it. a young cadet praises her mom for her historic achievement. >> how much do you credit your mother with where yo ryu today? >> about 110% of it. every single ounce of it. my mom kept me business and she'll tell you it was to keep me away from boys and out of trouble, and it worked. >> ahead in our new series proi files in service, meet the first

""profiles in service."" it's a look at people who dedicate their lives to help others. we visited with askew at west point to learn what inspires her to commit her service. >> this is the oldest service academy, more than 200 years old, but never in its history has it had someone like simon askew. at 21 she is the hydrantest ranking cadet at west point, commanding a brigade of 4,400. >> so you're the only one with this amount of stripes and stars. >> exactly. >> reporter: askew is the first african-american woman selected to serve as first captain of the core of cadets. >> my focus now is to really be the best first captain i can be regardless of gender or race and that when the first c class graduates in may i'm remembered
8:42 am
a as good leader and not necessarily the first african-american woman. >> race does set her apart. as the daughter of a white mom and black dad, it forces her. >> in all senses it was a positive thing. >> reporter: at west point, 22% of cadets are women and less than 4% are black women. >> reporter: seeing someone at least at the surface who you can relate to provides motivation. >> i would ask you to strive for greater things. >> reporter: for some that person is simon, and for her, that person is pat locke. >> it makes everything that you do, that you endure worth it. >> reporter: in 1980 locke was one of the first two african-american women to
8:43 am
graduate from the academy. >> we've been building to simon for the last 35 years. you see so much of our nation in her, the way that she thinks, the way that she carries herself. she knows she wants to be a leader because she knows she can make a difference. >> reporter: it's a dedication to service askew learned from her mom. >> what does service mean to you? >> it's really giving when there is not a foreseeable benefit or beneficial outcome to yourself. >> reporter: so when did that idea selfless service come to you? >> it was definitely the example of my mom. >> reporter: she develops affordable housing for primarily black communities in washington, d.c. >> that is service to a community that she doesn't receive benefit from or at least initially does not have any connection to, and seeing her do that and be committed and devoted to that was something i knew i wanted to do when i grew
8:44 am
up, just to be exactly like h. her. >> how much do you credit your mother with where you are? >> about 110% of it. every single ounce of it. my mom kept me busy. she'll tell you it was to keep me away from boys and out of trouble, and it worked. >> she credits a big volleyball tournament in hydrant skl with helping her learn what she calls the most important qualities of hydrant school. temperament. >> it was down to the last game point. i freaked out. i didn't feel comfortable and we lost the game. and i credited a lot of that to my inability to remain calm. that along with many others taught me a lot about what i valued in leaders and also the type of leaders that i wanted to be. >> reporter: now askew is trying to be a leader her fellow cadets
8:45 am
deserve. >> after listening to you i see how temperament leads to performance, leads to surge says. >> yeah. it's so important because it sets a climate in your own head, but also in the atmosphere around you, making sure you make other people feel comfortable is really the key to success in a lot of what we do in the army, because it is a people business. >> isn't it incredible? let me say this. simon askew is also one of 32 american students awarding the prestigious rhodes scholarship this year to continue her stories at the university of oxford in england and after that, she says she's going to stay in the military as long as they will have her, and for now today is her 21st birthday. happy birthday. >> does she play the piano and make her own clothes.
8:46 am
>> ever since, you were raving about simon and i so get it. wanting to be the best rega regardless of gender and race. love her. lock her mom. >> there is r so many people dedicated to the service of our country every day. she is among others and she's a bright leader. what a gift she is for the country. >> it's a people's business. >> i can hear it. you can hear more of "cbs this morning" on our podcast. find them all on i tups and apple's ipodcasts. coming up next, we e'll look at all that mattered this week. you're watching "cbs this first apartment 60 second rotini ah, here we go. hi, honey! hey mom! are you eating well? umm...yeah i'm actually making something right now. new barilla ready pasta. deliciously al dente in just 60 seconds. simply add your favorite ingredients...
