7:03 am
>> announcer: this morning's eye opener is brought to you by toyota, let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning." for the first time in american history, a woman is the presumptive presidential nominee of a major political party. a cbs news estimate confirms hillary clinton has the delegate support she needs to secure the nomination at next month's democratic convention. >> now h we want to show you how we reached that conclusion. clinton needs 2,383 delegates to clinch the nomination. she's earned 1,812 pledged delegates from the primaries and caucuses. cbs news estimates 80%, or 571, super delegates are now committed to clinton. super delegates are high-ranking democrats who are support whoever they want. the ne
7:04 am
magic number. >> but bernie sanders says it's not over yet. he believes he can still get many of those super delegates to change their mind before the convention. he trails hillary clinton by a total of 820 delegates, including 523 super delegates. sanders hopes for an upset in today's california primary, where 475 delegates are up for grabs. it is one of six states voting today. got all that? we've got full political team coverage here in studio 57 to cover these big developments. we begin with nancy cordes, who's covering the democrat's new presumptive nominee. >> good morning. it was on this day eight years ago that clinton conceded to then-senator barack obama. now she's the presumptive nominee. though, she probably would not have minded waiting one more day to clinch that title. >> we are on the brink of a historic, historic,
7:05 am
unprecedented moment. but we still have work to do, don't we? >> on the stump and online, clinton urged her supporters in six states not to get complacent today and to finish the primary strong. she'll need all of them because recent polls of the nation's largest state show clinton leading by just two points. >> we have a really important election now. >> her democratic opponent wasn't ready to accept the news either. >> we're going to go into that convention with enormous momentum. >> sanders argued mondays he can still convince super delegates backing clinton to change their minds between now and july's convention. >> in every instance, we beat trump by far larger margins than does hillary clinton. >> he basically seems to be suggesting that super delegates should overturn the will of the
7:06 am
sanders this week, alerting him he would soon endorse clinton, urging him to help unify the party. >> i really think it's not appropriate to talk about my discussions with the president. >> democratic groups aren't waiting for sanders to come around. the largest super pac backing clinton has a new ad that will hit the air waves tomorrow in potential battleground states. it highlights trump's mockery of a disabled reporter. >> oh, i don't know what i said, oh, i don't remember. >> when i saw donald trump mock somebody with a disable, it showed me his soul. >> clinton may not need the delegates up for grabs today, but big wins in new jersey and california would blunt sanders' argument that he's got a mandate to stay in the race. he heads home to vermont tomorrow to assess where his campaign goes from here. >> they're hoping people still turn out and vote today. >> exactly. on both sides. >> nancy, thank you. presumptive republican nominee donald trump is trying to change his tone after complaining for days that a mexican-american judge is
7:07 am
a long list of republican leaders strongly criticized trump for suggesting the judge is unfair because of hisser it taj. major garrett is here with trump's reaction to the critics in his own party. >> good morning. donald trump knows what he wants to do and say, but hardly anyone else attached to his campaign is on the same page. trump's instincts have brought him this far, but as this racially charged debate over a federal judge illustrates, neither trump nor anyone attached to what passes for a campaign infrastructure is as tactical or as nimble as a general election campaign demands. >> i don't care if the judge is mexican or not. i'm going to do great with the mexican people. >> in a stark reversal, donald trump said the mexican heritage of a judge handling a class-action lawsuit against trump university was of no consequence. >> mexican or not mexican, i want him to be -- all i want him to do is give me a fair shake. >> but it was trump who first brought up the judge's race. >> i have a judge who is a
7:08 am
a hater. he's a hater. what happens is the judge, who happens to be, we believe, mexican, which is great. i think that's fine. >> trump sharpened that judgment on "face the nation." >> he's a member of a club or society for a strongly pro-mexican, which is all fine. but i say he's got bias. i want to build a wall. i'm going to build a wall. >> president ronald reagan's son michael wrote on twitter that his father would likely not support trump's nomination, and senator lindsey graham called the remarks un-american, adding, there will come a time when the love of country will trump hatred of hillary. former rival senator marco rubio also condemned the comment. >> i don't think it reflects well on the republican party. i don't think it reflects well on us as a nation. >> and maine senator susan collins, who's not yet endorsed trump, said the party leader should apologize. >> that indicates a fundamental disrespect for the judicial system. >> one potential vice presidential candidate, former
7:09 am
took a hard line. >> once you go down that road, you destroy america. >> but after trump softened his tone, gingrich followed. >> i thought he did a very good job of narrowing down his complaint. if you look at the record, it's totally legitimate. >> after all this incoming fire from fellow republicans, trump held a conference call with supporters and urged them to come to his defense over trump university. in a related development, the associated press reported that florida's attorney general pam bondy personally asked trump for a campaign contribution around the same time her office was deciding whether to join the lawsuit against trump university. ultimately, trump donated and florida stayed out. >> thank you, major. joining us at the table with nancy and major is john heilman. he's managing editor for bloomberg politics, also co-host and executive producer of "the circus" which returns next months on showtime, a division of cbs. john, welcome.
7:10 am
>> good morning. >> a lot of stuff to talk about today. >> it's a historic time. >> let me start with you, mr. heilman. big primary day. we have the president say he's going to endorse hillary at some point. at least that's what we assume he said to bernie sanders. so where are we in terms of a moment in this campaign? >> well, i think, you know, it has been pretty clear for a couple months that hillary clinton was almost certain to be the democratic nominee. she now is getting to the place where all the numbers are demonstrating that's true. she will, after tonight, barring some kind of act of god, she will be far ahead of bernie sanders in pledged delegates, in the popular vote, and in terms of super delegate commitments. now the question comes down to just really simply, what does senator sanders want to do with that fact? does he want to move rather swiftly towards trying to unify
7:11 am
continue to fight from now until and all the way into the democratic convention? that will be a huge factor for hillary clinton. unifying the party is essential to her if she wants to beat donald trump. >> nancy, that decision imminent, you think? >> i think it is. what you heard from bernie sanders yesterday is probably very different from what you'll hear from him tomorrow after these races, whether he wins or loses in california. obviously he would love a win in california. and he could certainly pull it off. the largest state in the country. but he's got a lot of pressure now from, as we know, the white house. but things are going to change tomorrow. you're going to have a flood of endorsements and donations coming hillary clinton's way. with that comes a lot of pressure that has not been on bernie sanders up until this point to change his argument. big wigs in the democratic party, leaders who he respects, saying out loud in public, it's really time, bernie, to step aside and acknowledge t
7:12 am
presumptive nominee, which he didn't acknowledge last night. >> i think this is an importantly enormous week for democrats. by thursday, democrats are going to know how strongly the president is going to be behind hillary clinton, how magnanimous hillary clinton will be in victory, and how accepting bernie sanders will be of the larger task of unifying the party and focusing and galvanizing democrats against donald trump. all of that will be known and revealed by thursday. how it happens will be fascinating. >> do you see any irony that on the day she becomes the presumptive nominee is the day, the same day years ago that she dropped out of the race. >> and it's an instructive lesson and one she can by implication suggest to bernie sanders. >> and a case the president himself has been making to bernie sanders. look what she did eight years ago. she saw the writing on the wall. it was a much closer race back then than it is now, and she still said president obama is the nominee, i support him 100%. we don't expect that's going to happen this quickly with bernie sanders, but they say it has to
7:13 am
>> this is one of these strange moments in politics where i think all of the power is with the vanquished rather than with the victor. the vanquished can turn to his or her supporters and say, you know, i fought a great fight, we all fought a great fight together, you now must do what's right for the party. eight years ago you mentioned the hillary clinton thing. she came to new york city on the last night of the primaries eight years ago. a crowd of people, thousands of people chanted denver, denver, denver. they wanted her to fight all the way to the convention. terry mcauliffe said she was the next president of the united states. her top advisers wanted her to go, many of them. she gave her speech, got up the next morning, went down to washington, d.c., went to her headquarte headquarters, and dropped out. senator sanders, i don't doubt his sincerity of anything he said. as nancy said, tomorrow there's going to be a different psychology that's going to come into play. he's going to go back to vermont and sit with his wife and say, all right, where are we? i think he will think about it in a very different way than he has so far. >> one last quick point. we've talked about the party. for bernie sanders, for most of his
7:14 am
construct when you think about the democratic party. those loyalties and that infrastructure, all that visits upon himself differently. >> i love your intro there, major, where it says he's on one page, but it doesn't seem like anybody else is on the same page. >> that's a significant problem within the campaign, both radiating the message, defending his message, and putting together a national campaign strategy. >> we'll talk about donald trump later in the program. thank you so much for being with us this morning. our streaming news network cbsn will have full coverage of tonight's election. watch on the cbs news app and devices it like roku, apple tv, and amazon fire. and in other news, there is other news today, tropical storm colin made landfall overnight in florida. pheavy rain this morning is pounding tampa. much of the sunshine state is under a severe weather threat. colin is crossing over northern florida with winds around
7:15 am
miles an hour. it is expected to pass over southern georgia and head towards the carolinas. >> reporter: it's been a miserable 12 to 24 hours here in florida. that's downtown tampa behind me. this is the iconic bay shore boulevard. historic homes well known in this area, and it's nearly ankle deep, deeper than that as we trudge through it this morning. the last of colin is moving through here. this storm has rain bands that extend 500 miles from the center. we're feeling the effects right now, but within the next six to seven hours, we're told it should be clear. drenching rains, blistering winds, and widespread flooding took aim at northern florida monday as tropical storm colin barrelled toward the sunshine state. at least one possible tornado was spotted near jacksonville. surveillance video captured the strong winds tearing through a
7:16 am
>> i could hear the freight train sound. i said, let's get away from the window now. >> reporter: more than six inches of rain in parts of the state and wind gusts of nearly 65 miles per hour sent waves surging. in manatee county, the coast guard helped rescue a sailor, whose boat slammed into the side of a bridge. there was flooding in the tampa bay area, where more than 7,000 people lost power. the storm splintered trees and toppled trucks, but it spare's ken's home. >> i feel very lucky it didn't hit our house. that would have torn the damn roof right off. >> reporter: with much of the state facing severe weather, tourists and thrill seekers still visited the beaches to take in those oversized swells. it was a serious concern for lifeguards in clearwater beach. >> this is not a day where you want people in the water. >> for us in our line of work, conditions right now, we strongly advise people to stay out of the water. we still have a lot of weather
7:17 am
happen. >> reporter: half the counties in the state of florida are under a state of emergency right now. there have been no injuries or deaths related to this storm. and norah, when i looked at the radar, you look at that final rain band moving through, once it's gone, the radar is clear, dry. >> wow. david, amazing to see you walk through that flooded street there. thank you. funeral arrangements are set this morning for muhammad ali. the champ will be honored by two events open to the public. an islamic prayer service thursday and the funeral friday. they will be held in ali's hometown of louisville, kentucky. former heads of states and celebrities are all expected to pay their respects. jericka duncan is outside the center. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, norah. later today 29,000 free tickets will be given away to those who want to wish their final good-bye to the champ. now, those services at the end of the week will carry
7:18 am
of inclusiveness, something that guided ali's great life. >> it certainly will be like a funeral i've never seen before. >> reporter: this will imam will lead the prayer service. it will be held at louisville's freedom hall, where in 1961 ali defeated willie in a match that helped launch the young boxer to greatness. several years later after defeating sunny liston, cassius clay announced to the world he converted to islam and wanted to be called muhammad ali. >> muhammad ali. muhammad means worthy of all praises. >> reporter: how and where he's buried will adhere to ali's muslim faith, a process that started on friday when his body was washed shortly after his heart stopped. >> i've never seen a body as
7:19 am
muhammad ali. we're going to have a brief recitation from the quran, and maybe one or two people will give a grief talk. >> reporter: the next day, ali's casket will travel by motorcade through the streets of louisville. the final good-bye will happen at an interfaith funeral held at the city's kfc yum center. 15,000 tickets will be handed out to an event where millions can watch a live stream of the service online. >> when you lose a person of that magnitude, it leaves a gaping hole in the community that's not likely to be filled. >> reporter: ali's body will be buried at louisville's cays hill cemetery. along with relatives and friends, pall bearerers will include actor will smith and former champion lennox lewis. >> jericka, thank you very much. prison employees completed crossword puzzles instead of checking on ma

about $23 million in police overtime alone. on june 5th after six months of planning, sweat and matt snaked through holes cut in the back walls of their cells, which led them through an 18-inch diameter steam pipe, then to a tunnel, ending at a manhole cover on a village street. state investigators said tunnel inspects were rarely performed. matt and sweat left these taunting notes behind, including matt's painting of tony so pra know, which said, time to go, kid. the state inspector general's report details a culture of complacency at the clinton correctional facility, where security officers either failed to conduct required hourly rounds or did so negligently. she said cell searches were inadequate. guards would falsify records, and there was poor supervision of inmates and employees. over approximately 85 nights that sweat was working in the tunnels, more than 400 inmate counts should have

a documented search of matt's cell failed to detect the 18 1/2-inch by 14 1/2-inch hole in the rear wall. the ig said former employee joyce mitchell, who's now in prison, was able to smuggle in maps and other escape tools because she knew security staff at the prison's front gate did not conduct required checks of employees' bags. matt was shot and killed by a u.s. customs and border protection officer about 30 miles from the prison. sweat was shot and captured near the canadian border on june 28th. well, the state says it's made improvements, spending nearly $600,000. the inspector general interviewed more than 170 people but said her investigation was made more difficult by a lack of cooperation from staff, who she said provided testimony under oath that was incomplete and at times not credible, which she called reprehensible.

missteps at the prison that allowed the two men to sneak away. >> bernie sanders stopped at a los angeles bar popular among the lgbt community. said sanders, no, i said i wanted a blt. what's the "g" for? better not be guacamole because that costs an arm and a leg. i'm charlie rose with gayle

hillary clinton is the first woman ever to be the presumptive presidential nominee of a major american political party. even before today's primaries in six states, cbs news estimates clinton has enough delegates to clinch the democratic nomination. it was eight years ago today that she conceded the 2008 democratic race to barack obama. >> although we weren't able to shatter that highest, hardest glass ceiling this time, thanks to you, it got about 18 million cracks in it. >> she went on to say that next time it would be easier. house democratic leader nancy pelosi endorsed clinton this morning, trying to help her win today's california primary. >> but clinton is not yet embracing the role of presumptive nominee. she said last night, quote, we are on the brink of an historic moment, and she urged her supporters not to get complacent and keep fighting for every vote. bernie sanders argues that
8:03 am
still change their mind and vote for him, but even if 285 of them, about half the super delegates, pledged to clinton switch to bernie sanders, he would still have fewer delegates. and he trails hillary clinton by more than 3 million votes. >> our former chief washington correspondent and "face the nation" moderator has covered every presidential election since, what year? >> abraham lincoln. >> actually, 1964. >> 1964. >> yeah, but nationally since 1968. >> let's just say a very long time. you know all the stuff. >> we should note -- i mean, this is a historic moment for our country and for the democratic party. >> it really is. i mean, the first woman to be nominated for president and all that. you really can't make too much of that. that's kind of a big thing. you know, my guess is that hillary clinton would have preferred that this become known later today because there is a downsideo

she has to be very careful now to get here people out to vote. there's nothing like telling people we've already won to cause people to say, well, maybe i'll go to the starbucks or something instead of standing in a voting line. >> she still has all the votes she needs. >> well, she's won. that's the total upside. but she would really like to win california. >> of course she would. >> whether she needs california or not, i mean, it is the biggest state. they would really like to come out of this with a victory here. you know, she's had some tough times. just trying to shake somebody like bernie sanders, you know, he was never looked at as a democrat before. he's like gum on your shoe. it's just gone on and on. she's got to show people now and really turn to donald trump as quickly as she can. >> speaking of donald trump, he continues to go down this line about the mexican heritage
8:05 am
judge. he says he's biased against him. >> it's unbelievable. i'm going to be the first to say -- you know, i thought he had to be taken seriously in the beginning. we've talked about that. but when he said john mccain was a loser, when he got into it with megyn kelly, when he made fun of that poor guy, the reporter from "the new york times" who had challenges and all of that, every time i thought that happened, i thought there's no way he's going to get past that. >> is it different this time? >> it may be. >> why? >> because we're on a different golf course now. donald, of course, owns a lot of golf courses. donald trump got more votes, i guess, than any republican in a primary, but that's 5% of the registered voters in the united states of america. we're in a different zone here now. >> it's different because it's the general election we're moving into, or is it different because this particular event, like the muslim ban, seems to go beyond what's acceptable?
