before the opening bell caused the stock to plunge. boeing is building a brand-new 747 air force one, he wrote, costs out of control. more than $4 billion. cancel order. >> i think it is ridiculous, i think boeing is doing a little bit of a number. we want boeing to make a lot of money but not that much money. >> the two planes that currently serve as air force one are more than 25 years old, the the passenger jets still in use in the united states. the air force contracted with boeing last year to begin to design two or three replacements, slated for completion in 2023. mark rosinger over saw the acts. >> it is cheaper to buy a brand-new aircraft, bring it into the 21st century, than to try to maintain the aircraft built in the '80s. >> it was unclear what triggered

it came just moments after they posted these comments regarding boeing's ceo when it comes to trade with china. the president-elect has also signalled a preference for his own jet insisting last summer that air force one is a step down in every way. although his 757 can't refuel mid-air or deflect missiles. >> it's a beautiful aircraft, but can't serve the president of praised this company, softbank. >> and he just agreed to invest $50 billion in the united states and 50,000 jobs. >> now president-elect trump had sticker shock over the air force one, but wait until he hears what the embassies across the

oversight committee chairman jason chaffetz has thoughts on it. >> he has accused them of taking a risky approach to building embassies, taking too long and spending too much. now the next secretary of state will have to determine how to build the fortresses. >> reporter: a striking building in london has a sizeable tag, the building will soon exceed its more than $1 billion projection, according to house chair jason chaffetz. >> i feel very misled by the state department, because if we are not opening the doors, the cost is high for staying open. >> the existing u.s. embassy will be used to house our personnel until the new london embassy is ready.

account for a $22 million cost increase. the house oversight committee found quibbling over a glass wall in indonesia caused tens of millions and change over the request, and millions spent over art in pakistan. one of the biggest bills came from mexico, where the u.s. paid hundreds of millions on the lot and chaffetz, who visited the site, said costs will cost more than the $93 million estimate. >> something has to change, they're building them slower, coming in over budget, and not necessarily secure. >> so the next secretary of state, will it be the top of the list. >> i'm glad we have mr. trump coming in, i think he will fix it quickly. >> but the strict standards is

project. state department deputy spokesperson mark toner. >> do you have a time line as to when these embassies will be both secure and finished? >> all i can say is our diplomatic security bureau and our management work hand in hand to make sure that safety is the main issue. >> they are mindful of how looks impact perception of the but they insist that despite the delays the projects will remain within budget. >> and a new study shows that driving while drowsy is as bad as driving drunk. err errol burnett has more. >> they want to make sure people drive with enough sleep, because they have a hard time keeping their eyes open which is proving to be deadly.

a drowsy driver can lose control. >> i remember screaming at the top of my lungs and sort of collapsing because that could not be true. >> cary's 18-year-old son tyler was killed after he crashed his car, months after graduating high school. he was on a mid-afternoon drive, when a witness saw him flip and go through three lanes and crash six years later, his family still is full of grief. >> definitely cheated, it is so unfair. >> it's hard every day. i mean, it's been six years. but little things come in and it is very difficult. >> police found no signs of control or drugs in tyler's system. the lack of skid marks led investigators to conclude that tyler fell asleep at the wheel. his family said he was getting

night. >> i knew about texting and driving and distracted driving and joy riding and impaired driving, all of those things we're educated about. but not once was there a conversation about young adults and drowsy driving. >> teenagers, older adults and people who have a sleep debt are among the highest risk groups. >> jake nelson is aaa's director of advocacy and research. >> one in five involve a driver who was drowsy or had not had enough sleep the night before. >> in a new study, it shows that people are twice as likely to be in an accident when they get five to six hours of sleep. more than four times as likely with five hours, and more than 12 times likely with less than four hours. >> driving with having only earned four hours of sleep in a

impairing as driving drunk. >> how aware do you think people are of this? >> not aware at all, and i think it's the punch line. when your cough returns. one pill lasts 12 hours, so... looks like i'm good all night! some cough medicines only last 4 hours. but just one mucinex lasts 12 hours. let's end this. i pinky promised my little girl a fabulous garden party for her birthday. so i mowed the lawn, put up all the decorations. i thought i got everything.

before the opening bell caused the stock to plunge before the opening bell of the day. mr. trump wrote costs are out of control, more than $4 billion. cancel order. >> i think it's ridiculous, i think boeing is doing a little bit of a number. we want boeing to make a lot of money but not that much money. >> the two planes that currently serve as air force one are more than 25 years old, the the 747 passenger jets still used in the united states. the air force contracted with boeing to complete them in 2023. mark rosinger over saw the result. >> it is cheaper to buy a new aircraft, than to try to maintain the aircraft built in the '80s. >> it was not clear what

it came just after the highlighted differences between mr. trump and boeing's ceo when it comes to trade with china. the president-elect insisted last summer that air force one is a step down in every way. although his 757 can't refuel mid-air or deflect missiles. >> it's a beautiful aircraft but is not capable of supporting the president of the united states. >> a few hours after boeing, mr. trump praised a japanese company, softbank, making this announcement in the lobby of trump tower with softbank's ceo. >> and he just agreed to invest $50 billion in the united states and 50,000 jobs. >> now president-elect trump has sticker shock over air force one, but wait until he hears what other embassies cost around the world.

oversight committee jason chaffetz has the results. >> well, that investigation was led by top republican jason chaffetz who accuses the administration of spending too much and taking too long. now the next secretary of state will have to determine whether or not to construct surrounded by glass will soon exceed its billions in projection. >> i feel very misled by the state department because he hif are not opening the doors in february, the cost is about $100,000 a day in a facility that we used to own. >> that facility will be used to house our personnel until the new london embassy is ready.

accounts for a $22 million cost increase. the house oversight committee found that arguing over a glass wall in indonesia cost tens of millions of dollars in change order requests. and nearly $3 million was spent on u.s. art at the embassy in pakistan, one of the biggest bills came from mexico, where the u.s. paid for a 15 acre lot and $56 million on the mission. yet. chaffetz, who visited the site, said it will cost millions. >> something has to change, they're building them slower, coming in over budget, they're not necessarily secure. >> so for the next secretary of state, is this the top of the list? >> i am glad we have mr. trump coming in. i think he will fix it in a hurry. >> but the strict standards for

night. >> i knew about texting and driving, and joy riding, cell phones, impaired driving, all of those things we're educated about. but not once was there a conversation about young adults and drowsy driving. >> teenagers, older adults, and people who have a sleep debt are among the highest risk groups. >> jake nelson is the manager of research. >> not one crash where somebody driver who was drowsy or had not earned enough sleep the night before. >> in a new study, aaa finds that sleepy drivers are five times likely to get in an accident with five hours of sleep. more than four times as likely with four hours, and 12 times with less than four hours. >> drivers who only earned four

driving drunk. >> how aware do you think people are? >> not aware at all. and i think that is really the punch line. one pill lasts 12 hours, so... looks like i'm good all night! some cough medicines only last 4 hours. but just one mucinex lasts 12 hours. let's end this. ? rooms come in all sorts of shapes and sizes. with eight times more fragrance control, the air wick? scented oil warmer lets you dial up or down for the perfect amount of fragrance. no matter the size of the room. air wick?. home is in the air. thank you for dining with us. hope to see you again soon. whoa, whoa, i got this.

including brothers, families, in a war that had not been declared. >> when we talk to people they would say oh, my father or grandfather wouldn't tell us anything until they were 60 years old, they were told to just forget about it and get on with their life. >> craig nelson spent the last five years recounting the pearl harbor, december 7th possibly just as perfeivotal to history as 1776. >> it completely transformed the united states, at that point we were 14th military power behind sweden. >> so it served as a rallying cry. >> it made us put on our big boy pants and become a global leader. >> the u.s. did bounce back in double time. all but three of the ships
