they have to put the bill on the floor and own up to where they are and stare their constituents in the eye and say yay or nay. that's what we're elected to do. they're running and hiding because of the nra. >> congresswoman, i heard joe manchin say stop playing partisan, stop being democrats, stop being republican, just be americans. do you think you've moved the needle at all? "the new york times" is calling if a spectacle. sprooin calling it a pub -- paul ryan is calling it a publicity stunt. do you think you've moved the needle at all with this tactic? >> absolutely. we have more than 70% of americans that agree with us that we should make sure that people on a terrorist watch list or on the no-fly list or should not have a gun should not be able to get one. that we should have universal background checks and close all the loopholes so if you shouldn't be able to get a gun that you can't get one. and the republicans refuse to allow v onse

pieces of legislation. look, they vote however they want. they need to do their jobs and face the music and stop cowering in the corner because of their fear of the nra and retribution. >> congresswoman, we've never seen anything like it. thank you very much for joining us this morning. >> thank you. the presidential candidates are off the campaign trail after two days of attacks. donald trump called hillary clinton a world-class liar, saying she might be the most corrupt presidential candidate ever. hillary clinton responded with her own barrage, accusing trump of outlandish lies. major garrett is following the race and joins us this morning. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. donald trump distilled his general election message not only against hillary clinton but washington itself. it's a message that trump's campaign manager, paul manafort, has been pushing internally for months, but now might have the power to drive his candidate to keep focused on, well, at least until the gop convention. >> ham

it's thursday, june 23rd, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is more real news ahead including congress fighting over gun control, while british voters decide their future in the european union. we'll ask melee -- mellody hobson how the brexit vote could affect the united states. first, here's today's "eye opener" at 8:00. the rules appear to have go out the window. this hour, there are sfwil a dozen house democrats on the floor. >> hasn't the speaker adjourned congress and said you can go home until after the july 4th holiday? >> he has, but that doesn't mean we can't continue. lddonamp tru has distilled his election message not only against hillary clinton but washington itself.

>> this is some of the damage that was done when the tornado struck overnight. and this is one of the bricks that was torn from the facade of this gas station and tossed around like a tennis ball. it's a wonder that no one was seriously hurt. i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. a handful of democrats this morning are still holding an extraordinary sits-in on the house floor. they want a vote on new guidance laws. >> call these republicans up on the phone and tell them we want a vote! >> bring common sense gun control legislation to the house floor. give us a vote! >> the '60s-style protest even include members singing "we shall overcome." >> cameras and microphones were off, so members streamed the sit-in fm

phones. house speaker paul ryan tried to bring order. >> the chair appreciates that members will differ on matters of policy and will seek to express those differences. the chair would hope the business of the house can be conducted in a fashion that reflects positively on the dignity and decorum of this institution. >> nancy cordes is outside the house chamber after the all-night protest and joins us. good to see you again. >> reporter: good morning to you. >> the house has adjourned until after july 4th. july 5th they go back into session. where do democrats go from here? >> reporter: that's what they'll be discussing in one of the democratic leaders' offices later on. one hand, they don't want to pack it in without something to show for their efforts. on the other hand, how much bang for their bug do they really get by occupying the house floor for two week over a recess during a holiday? thatha

figure out right now. >> you know, this is the first time that we've ever seen anything like this. we've had the shooting in newtown, we've had it in aurora, colorado. there was a shooting in the church in south carolina. why do you think now is the time they decided we are going to do something now? >> reporter: frankly, democrats feel that the previous strategy hasn't worked. they've been completely unsuccessful at passing new gun legislation even though they believe that public opinion is on their side. they felt that they needed to do something dramatic. republicans say, hey, drama's fine, but you need respect the rules of the institution. otherwise, this place will turn into a free for all any time either say has an axe to grind. >> what's the harm in having a vote? >> reporter: because house republicans believe that democrats simply want to make them look bad. democrats know that most republicans will vote no this measure, and then they will use that to

during elections that are taking place in just a few months. beyond that, house republicans say it's the principle of the thing, that democrats shouldn't be able to break the rules, disrupt the business of the house, and then be rewarded for it. >> nancy, thank you very much. the battle in the house extended to the campaign trail. donald trump and hillary clinton used their speeches yesterday to portray each other as dangerous for the country. >> she lacks the temmeperant and the judgment and the competence to lead our country. >> he's going after me personally because he has no answers on the substance. [ cheers ] >> the candidates offered some substance to go along with their attacks. >> let's make college debt free for all! >> i will change immigration rules to give unemployed americans an opportunity to fill good, really good paying jobs. >> let's rewrite thees

more companies share profits with their employees, and fewer ship profits and jobs overseas. >> we'll cancel rules and regulati tonshat send jobs overseas and everywhere else but our country. [ applause ] >> let's make sure that wall etstre corporations and the super rich pay their fair share of taxes. [ cheers ] >> pass massive tax reftoorm create millions of new jobs and lower taxes for everyone. >> allf ohi ts depends upon putting our families first. >> one common theme in all of these reforms -- it's going to be america first. [ applause ] >> clinton and trump also reached out to bernie sanders' voters, asking for their support in november. >> the world is watching this morning as voters in the united kingdom decide whether britain will leave the european union. here's a look at the early turnout at polling stations.

"the new york times" says more than 46 million people are registered to vote. recent polls show a neck and neck battle. >> britain's departure known as brexit. if the u.k. leaves the 28-nation partnership, the shockwaves could rattle the global economy. mellody hobson is at the table. good morning. >> good morning. >> we're going to talk about how this could affect our mortgage rates and other things at home. first, what are your sources telling you about how it vote may go? >> very close. it's going to be very close. on the one hand, it looks like it will come through. they will remain. the market seems to be signaling that. as of monday, it breathed a sigh of relief. you also see the bookmakers saying the odds are with staying. the polls are saying stay. however, some question the polls because they overindex for the cities which are more likely to be in favor of staying. people are worried about the generational divide. young people are in favor of staying. older people are in favor of leaving. older people are the votes you can count on. >> what's the impacts of

impact of the death and murder of the member of parliament? >> some feel that's helped those who want to stay. it's come across as being very extreme. as a result, it's turned some people saying i don't want to be associated with this person in this horrible, horrible outcome in terms of this death of this m.p. so in some ways, it did help those who want to stay as horrible as that is to say. >> this vote has great implications for what happens in this country, as well. >> implications for the globe. the u.k. is small but mighty. 65 million people, second largest economy in europe. there's never been a country to go out. so this makes a big statement about free trade. it makes a big statement about how people feel about open borders. as a result, we'll see repercussions in the market for sure. if this vote goes the wrong way, hold on to your seat tomorrow and for the coming days. there also is a sense it could be the first domino to fall. so other countries that are feeling a little antsy might

and it really would start a very bad situation. we're already looking at slow growth in europe. this could slow it even further. >> we want them to stay. >> we want them to stay. yes. the investment community in the u.s. wants them to stay. fingers crossed. >> mark phillips said this vote is being as much driven by fear as economic concerns. explain that. >> it resonates with some of the things that donald trump is saying. just now -- america first. make america great. it's about this idea of terrorism. so the fear around my personal security. my financial security, are these immigrant taking -- immigrants taking my job? free trade, they also call them economic migrants, not just syrian immigrants. people are coming to europe for a better life. the issues around free trade, nationalism, anti-government vote, as well. there's a lot that resonates. >> and it will have political repercussions in great britain in

cameron. >> if cameron loses the vote, he called nature referendum, he although -- called for this referendum, he loses his job. everyone says it. >> this summer saw the queen, the prime minister, and got involved in this and said if in fact they leave, not giving advice, but if in fact you leave, you're going to have to go to the end of the queue in terms of relationships with the united states on trading and economic matters. >> i also think it's going to affect the reps with the e.u. even if they stay. this is bad versus very bad. bad because they've already signaled we may want out. you don't get welcomed back to the table enthusiastically. when you've sort of had one foot out the door. that's going to be hard to repair over time. >> well, and mark n mark's piece, he says the bookies are predicting as close as it is that they will vote to stay. >> they will remain. >> here's the only question -- if they vote to stay, could they vote again later if the vote is really close? it may not be one and done. down the road.

>> all right. we'll be watching. thanks a lot. if all the recent headlines are keeping you up at night, some new technology might help you get a little extra sleep. ahead, we'll show you how effective those gadgets really

why should over two hundred years of citi® history matter to you? well, because it tells us something powerful about progress. that whether times are good or bad,

$26 billion with a "b." this is microsoft's biggest acquisition in its history. linkedin ceo jeff weiner will remain in his post after the sale is complete. we are so pleased that he is back here with us at the table. hello, jeff weiner, and congratulations. >> thank you. exciting. >> i love in the letter to your employees you said that the head of microsoft had you at the word "independence." how did this come about? you call him? he call you? what happened? >> satya myself, reed hoffman, founder of linkedin, bill gates, have known each other for some years now. and i've long had admiration for the job that satya's been doing there. in the last two years since taking over as ceo, you've seen microsoft being more agile, innovative, a more purpose-driven organization. we've been trying to connect and talk about ways in which the companies could work together. and earlier this year, we had a chance to sit down, and we realized there's such strong alignment there that maybe we should talk about a combination.

what tell add to microsoft and to linkedin? >> it's interesting. when we sat down, we realized how strongly aligned the organizations were in terms of our purpose and mission which i wouldn't necessarily have expected. we're about helping our members to be prosecutor productive and successful. microsoft -- to be more productive and successful. microsoft wants to help its customers achieve more. we've done it through a professional network. they've done it through the cloud. the combination of the assets changes the game. >> people want to read this as a sign that microsoft is becoming a different kind of company, and you give it some leverage to do that. >> i think for starters, we can add a social layer, a social fabric to all of microsoft's products. so they reach over a billion customers through applications like outlook, calendar, office, windows, skype, active directory dynamics. and imagine being able to understand who you're talking to, connecting with within that environment, through calendar integration. you're on your way to a meeting with someo

well. we can send you a push notification that said we want to learn more about what you have in common with this person. connections in common. the fact that you went to the same school. you used to work at the same company. thing like it can change the way people work by virtue of getting to know how you know somebody. >> when i first heard it, i was worried. i thought what's this going to mean for jeff weiner. normally somebody's out of a job. you'd have the money, but what are you going to do for work? were you worried? >> how many billion it was again? >> 26. >> that's -- that's a different issue. >> to have you still in the top spot, isn't that an unusual -- >> she's worried about that. >> i appreciate it. thank you for your compassion -- >> what you can do, will you get another job or not? >> i'm all set. no need to worry. >> you know what i mean. >> of course. in that -- >> motherly advice. >> in that first exchange we had, we talked about the important of alignment on at least two dimensions. one was purpose, which we covered. the other was structure. how would this be structured. i didn't knha

mind. it would be reasonable to assume a certain degree of integration, almost absorption, would i have to move up north. >> yeah. >> and as i wrote in the e-mail to our employees, he had me at independence because he said this was going work differently. he had in mind a model that he believes will be more scaleable over time, that you've seen other companies utilize with great success. google and youtube. facebook and what'sapp. oculus rift, instagram. we talked about a model of i remain ceo, we continue to pursue or mission and vision in a way that continues to manifest our culture and values. and so the opportunity to pursue what we've always dreamt of pursuing with this opportunity to fully leverage microsoft's footprint across a billion customers on a global basis is exciting stuff. >> sound like a win-win. you're known for your compassionate management. what does that mean? what are you trying to do? >> yeah. it's a lesson i learned a long time ago in a previous organization where i thinke

executives or managers i was projected on to my -- projecting on to my team an expectation of how i did things. it's not the most effective way to work with people. i think another approach is to be more compassionate. to manage compassionately where you put yourself in the shoes of other people, you understand their intentions, motivations, their dreams and fears. in doing so, it can very much change the way in which you connect with the people you work with. >> you are one of the few ceos i've even heard use the words compassion and empathy when they're running a company and talking about employees. i respect you so. i'm curious about the linkedin profile -- >> she's worried it you. >> compassion. >> we can use another person at the table. the right person. >> comfortable environment. >> you have to take your shirt off, though. >> what's going on with the shirt taking off stuff? >> no -- it was a larry wilmore joke. your judged of a great -- your idea of a great linkedin profile? what jumps out? this is really

foremost. be yourself. represent who you are. it's not just your experiences. this is not a resume. it's not static or linear. this is a more dramatic approach to representing your experiences, your skills, your objectives, what you know, what you're interested in within a professional context. and it's not just about the comprehensiveness. it's also about the freshness of the information. and the more complete and the more fresh, the more recent that information has been updated, the more opportunities are going to accrue to our members. >> does it also provide a means for meeting other people, for dating purposes? >> you know, it's funny, charlie. i have stories -- i get a lot of wonderful outreach from our members in terms of how we've changed their lives. more often than not, it's related to -- norah will get a kick out of it -- more often than not, it's related to jobs. i just got an e-mail about a couple that met over 30 years ago. and i believe the gentleman was serving in the military, and they fell in love quickly. they lost touch with one another.
