winterville, georgia. >> that's the overnight if new f for this friday. from the broadcast center in new york city. >> mason: doubling down on fire and fury. >> that statement may not be tough enough. >> mason: a new warning to the north koreans. >> things will happen to them like they never thought possible. >> mason: also tonight >> i'm very disappointed in mitch. >> mason: the president turns up the heat on the senate republican leader. >> i just want him to get repeal anacreplnee do. >> mason: mystery in cuba. something caused u.s. diplomats there to suffer hearing loss. and, three college pals sink all their dough into a pizza place, and help a neighborhood rise. >> we're about creating opportunities.

president trump today defended his "fire and fury" warning to north korea, saying it's time somebody stuck up for the people of america. in fact, he said, he might not have been tough enough. so he got tougher today, saying that if the north koreans even think about launching an attack, "things will happen to them like they never thought possible." and the north has been thinking about an attack on guam, the u.s. territory in the western pacific where about 160,000 people live. we begin tonight with national security correspondent david martin. >> maybe it wasn't tough enough. they've been doing this to our country for a long time, for many years. it's about time that somebody stuck up for the people of this country, and for the people of other countries. >> reporter: north korea has already denounced his earlier "fire and fury" statement as a load of nonsense, and speaking to reporters for a second time this afternoon, the president seemed as upset by some of the

things kim jong-un and his spokesmen have said, as he is about the regime's nuclear weapons program. >> he has disrespected our country greatly. he has said things that are horrific. and with me, he's not getting away with it. he got away with it for a long time, between him and his family. he's not getting away with it. this is a whole new ballgame. >> reporter: the head of north korea's rocket forces announced plans to target american military bases in guam with a salvo of four missiles that would land within 25 miles of the island as a crucial warning to the u.s. four missiles would apparently be intended to overwhelm the thaad missile defense system on guam, but pentagon officials said there were no plans to rush additional interceptors to the island, and defense secretary mattis told reporters residents of guam should not be worried. the president said it is north korea who should be worried.

>> he does something in guam, it will be an event, the likes of which nobody has seen before, what will happen in north korea. >> reporter: he seemed to hold out little hope negotiations could resolve the standoff, and doubted economic sanctions would be effective enough to pressure north korea into giving up its nuclear weapons. at the beginning of this administration, officials said they would give economic sanctions and diplomatic pressure about 12 to 15 months to work before turning seriously to military options. but it seems the commander in chief has already run out of patience. anthony. >> mason: david martin at the pentagon. thank you, david. president trump today said china, north korea's only ally, can do a lot more to resolve the crisis, and he said he thinks china will. he even suggested he'd give china a better trade deal in return. cbs news correspondent ben tracy is in beijing. ben, how likely is it, do you think, that china will step up? >> reporter: it's not likely at all. i mean, north korea does depend on china for about 90% of its

point how much north korea will even listen to what china says. in fact, the regime is very upset with chna because it went along with those tough u.s. sanctions. now, theoretically, china could cut off north korea's oil supply and eventually that could cause the regime to collapse. but the fear is that you would then have refugees streaming across china's border, and that's not something that it wants. even more so, if there is a war on the korean peninsula, china believes that south korea and the u.s. would eventually win that war, and the u.s. military on china's border is not something it's going to tolerate. >> mason: ben, what about china's relationship with this white house? >> reporter: well, i'd say it's complicated, at best. the chinese pride stability and predictability, and president trump is constantly throwing them for a loop. one day he'll compliment china on its efforts to rein in north korea, and the next day he threatens them with a trade war. just today, the trump sent a u.s. navy ship into waters that china claims is its own and that's only antagonized them more. when you consider how much the

this issue of north korea, these sorts of actions are not likely to help. anthony. >> mason: ben tracy in beijing, thanks. michael morell is a former deputy director of the c.i.a., and now our cbs news senior security contributor. he joins us from tokyo. michael, the president said his "fire and fury" warning wasn't tough enough. from your vantage point in tokyo, what do you think? president's statements of the last two days are reckless, and i think they're reckless for two reasons. one is that kim jong-un has been shown to be provokable, and so this playground game of "dare-double dare" is dangerous. the second reason that-- is that statements such as this box the president in, from a policy perspective. at a time when he should be trying to maximize policy options, he'rr

mistake here that president obama made on the syria red line. so i don't think the statements are helpful to-- to u.s. interests. >> mason: at the same time, secretary of state tillerson appears to be trying to calm things down. are mixed signals damaging u.s. credibility, though? >> anthony, clarity in foreign policy is one of the keys to success. and right now, we have three voices. we have the president's very tough rhetoric that's being read as possible u.s. preemptive action. you've got secretary tillerson's statements, which walk back significantly. and then you've got secretary of defense mattis' statements that are tough, but they talk about a u.s. response to a first step by north korea. one of the great frustrations here in east asia is, they don't know what u.s. policy is, and they're asking, "what is u.. strategy?" >> mason: michael morell in tokyo.

counter-productive deadlines. >> now, our new president has, of course, not been in this line of work before, and i think had excessive expectations about how quickly things happen in the democratic process. >> reporter: the president would not say his most important republican ally should step down, but he didn't rule it out, either. >> if he doesn't get repeal and replace done, and if he doesn't get taxes done-- meaning cuts and reform-- and if he doesn't get a very easy one to get done-- infrastructure-- if he doesn't get them done, then you can ask me that question. >> reporter: mr. trump also reacted for the first time to the f.b.i. raid on the home of former campaign chairman paul manafort as part of special counsel robert mueller's russia investigation. >> i thought it was a very, very strong signal, or whatever. they do that very seldom, so i

was surprised to see it. i was very, very surprised to see it. >> reporter: but the president dismissed reports he was considering firing mueller. >> i haven't given it any thought. i'm not dismissing anybody. >> reporter: the president also reacted to russian president vladimir putin's decision to expel hundreds of diplomatic workers from the u.s. embassy in russia. >> i want to thank him, because we're trying to cut down on payroll, and as far as i'm concerned, i'm very thankful that he let go of a large number of people because now we have a smaller payroll. there's no real reason for them to go back. >> reporter: the president also said his relationship with attorney general jeff sessions is fine, and that he is most concerned about leaks coming from the intelligence community, not those from rival factions within the white house trying to demonstrate their "love for him." anthony. >> mason: major garrett, thanks. now to one of the stranger

experiencing health problems and the cause is a mystery. julianna goldman has the latest on this story, which was broken by cbs news radio correspondent steve dorsey. >> reporter: it began last year in havana. more than a dozen staffers at the u.s. embassy experienced unexplained ailments. symptoms including headaches and sleeplessness. sources say some suffered permanent hearing damage and some had to return home. state department spokeswoman heather nauert: >> we don't know exactly where this came from, okay. we can't blame any ne individual or a country at this point yet. >> reporter: but so far, the investigation has shown that the culprit is likely a high-tech sonic device that can't be heard by humans but, clearly, can be harmful. officials believe it was operating in or near the homes of embassy workers. the question: who put it there, and why? >> it's audio, but it's beyond the range of our ears. >> reporter: vince houghton is an intelligence historian and

curator at the international spy museum. he says cuba, or even the russians, could have been carrying out an intelligence operation that went south. but houghton and other intelligence experts say it could also have been a routine intimidation campaign, taken to another level. >> so this could be new technology that has had a side effect that no one expected. on the other hand, it could have been designed to harass, to make people feel uncomfortable. >> reporter: to retaliate, the u.s. kicked out two cuban diplomats in may. last night on state television, the cuban government called the expulsions "unjustified and baseless," saying, "it has never, nor would it ever allow the cuban territory to be used for any action against accredited diplomatic officials or their families." there are indications that diplomats are still being affected, and it's not just the u.s. canada says at least one of its diplomats has also suffered hearing loss. the f.b.i. and the state department continue to investigate. anthony. >> mason: julianna goldman with a health mystery in havana. thanks.

google this week is speaking out about it. he'd written a memo criticizing the company's diversity policies. john blackstone is at google headquarters in mountain view, california. >> reporter: at google silicon valley campus, the work schedule today called for a company-wide town hall meeting where c.e.o. sundar pichai would address the controversial memo written by the now-fired software engineer james damore. damore defended himself in an interview with bloomberg news. >> the whole point of my memo was actually to improve google and google's culture, and they just punished me and shamed me for doing it. >> reporter: the memo criticized google's efforts to hire more women, suggesting "biological causes may explain why we don't see equal representation. women, on average, have more neuroticism," damore wrote. >> it's largely because of the differing interests in people versus things, which is linked to prenate

>> it is profoundly demoralizing to come up against this prejudice over and over again. >> reporter: kim scott is a silicon valley veteran who rose to management at google. she is now an author whose book, "radical candor," offers advice to managers. she agrees with damore's argument that it is hard to express conservative opinions in silicon valley, but says he went too far. >> i think he raises some good points there, but i'm not eager to talk to somebody who thinks that i am stupid or more neurotic than he is because i happen to be a woman. >> reporter: damore has filed a complaint with the national labor relations board, claiming he was treated unfairly by google. >> what james said clearly contributed to a hostile work environment. i don't think google had any choice but to fire james. >> reporter: we've just learned that google has now canceled the town hall meeting that was planned for this afternoon. the company claims it's in favor of diversity there's a class
