>> the nearly $1.5 trillion bill is viewed as a victory for trump and and the largest tax overhaul in decades including tax cuts for businesses and high income people with more modest breaks for others. >> after the vote president trump tweeted, we are one step closer to delivering massive tax cuts for working families across america. look forward to signing a final bill before christmas. errol barnett is in our washington bureau with more. >> reporter: there was an in tensive fort to get this bill over the finish line. it required an incredible amount of behind the scenes horse trading and last minute handwritten additions but in the end the senate succeeded in passing tax reform. >> the yeas are 51 and the nays are 49. the tax cuts and jobs act as amended is passed. >>. >> reporter: it was almost 2:00

>> reporter: retiring tennessee senator bob corker, the only republican to vote no was turned off by the $1.5 trillion price tag but other republicans argued the cuts will grow the economy. >> this is what this bill is about. take home pay. more money for the american people. >> reporter: while the corporate tax rate is being slashed permanently, individual cuts are not set in stone. a family of four for example earning $75,000 a year would initially get a tax break averaging $2,200. but democrats note, those savings will be temporary. >> i think the priorities of this tax bill are all wrong. >> reporter: now also included in this senate plan were other republican goals, including a provision to allow drilling in the arctic national wildlife refuge in alaska and an appeal of the obama mandate that individuals purchase health insurance. >> thank you. the apparent

hours after michael flynn ne-- pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi. he is cooperating with the robert mueller investigation. >> on friday president trump ignored questions from reporters as he welcomed the libya prime minister to the white house. >> cbs news justice correspondent jeff pegues is in our washington bureau with more. >> reporter: good morning. tye cob tried to put distance between the president and the guilty plea s guilty plea by saying it hurts no one but flynn but they are moving closer to the president's inner circle. michael flynn arrived at the courthouse to plead guilty to making false statements to the fbi. once inside a federal judge asked him if he was

willingly and vol untear illy. the general answered with a simple yes, sir, according to court papers he lied to fbi agents about the details of two phone calls with then russian ambassador to the u.s. sergey kislyak during the presidential transition. cbs news has learned flynn was direced to make the first call by president trump's son-in-law jared kushner described in papers as a very senior member of the transition team. on december 22nd, 2016, flynn called kislyak to urge russia to delay or defeet a united nations resolution concerning israeli settlements. a week later flynn spoke to kislyak again this time about new sanctions on russia and relayed to the ambassador that trump team did not want russia to escalate the situation. flynn made that goal after consulting with someone court papers identify as a senior

cbs news has learned that was flynn's deputy k.t. mcfarland. after the second kislyak call, russian president vladimir putin announced he would not retaliate for the u.s. sanctions and trump tweeted putin was very smart. flynn was a loyal trump surrogate during the campaign but fired as the president's national security adviser after just 24 days when it became clear he had already lied to vice president pence about his communications with kislyak. pence had publicly said they did not discuss sanctions. >> it was strictlyco -- coincidental and they did not dus anything having to do with the united states decision to expel -- >> reporter: he is required to cooperate with the investigation n. a state flynn said his actions were wrong and his

interest of my family and of our country. >> what does flynn's cooperation signal about the direction of this investigation? >> it signals it is going forward and it is moving and advancing very quickly. >> reporter: peter decidenberg a former federal prosecutor. >> if anyone is interacting with the russians or would know about, it would be flynn. so if you could get him to talk, it would be worth giving him a great deal. >> considering the allegations against him, this is a good deal for flynn who might have otherwise phased decades behind bars. he was other scrutiny for failing to disclose payments from russian backed companies and trying to, straight the kidnapping avenue turkish cleric in exchange for $15 million. alex. >> jeff, you say this is a good deal for mike flynn. what indications do we have about the level of cooperation he may be offering to special counsel. >> reporter: well in his own statement he said th h

cooperating with the special counsel investigation. mike flynn is a unique video in this investigation. i say that because he straddled the campaign, the transition, and then the first few weeks of this white house and he was at the top level of the campaign transition and the white house early on. and so he was in on some of the top level discussions and what investigators are trying to figure out is why the russians were so intent on helping the trump campaign and whether any deals were made. >> jeff you reported that jared kushner directed flynn to make contact with the russian ambassador about a u.n. resolution. what might this mean for the president's son-in-law in terms of this investigation. >> reporter: well kushner has already been under scrutiny. he left about a hundred meetings off a security clearance form that he had to fill out accurately and including meetings with russians. so he's under scrutiny for that and also reportedly in on the convti

james comey. so the scrutiny has been there on kushner. it now increases. we know that he was interviewed by the special counsel office early last month and most of those questions we're told focus on flynn. so the heat is on jared kushner as well. >> jeff pegues, thank you. special counsel robert mueller was pointed after president trump fired fbi director james comey. angry that he would not drop the russia investigation. after the flynn guilty plea on friday, comey made his first ever instagram post. a passage from the book of amos in the bible, quote, but let justice roll down like waters an righteousness like an ever flowing stream. >> that is ominous. president trump denied he wanted to fire rex tillerson. he told reports that speculation that he was on his way out was, quote, laughable. president trump called reports about ousting tillerson fake

mr. trump said tillerson is not leaving and the white house said he still has president trump's support. for more on an eventful 24 hours in the capitol, they all seem eventful, we turn to philip bunt. good morning. >> good morning. >> let's talk about the most recent news which happened while most of us slept. maybe you weren't sleeping. but this is a major legislative win for the president and something he's looking for but it is not law yet. where does it go from here. >> that is right. so the house passed a version of the tax cuts already that passed without notice because the house is -- has a much tronger republican majority. the senate bill now has a different set of changes to tax laws. and now they go into conference, where the house and the senate try to work to together and figure out one unified package and then it goes back to both chambers for another vote. so this is not over. it is a much further along process than what was the health care bill for example which we all know failed in the senate earlier this year.

republicans in that sense. >> it is significant also in so far as it bucks a decade of republican orthodox about not adding to the federal deficit. by the most rosie estimates this will cost at least a trillion dollars. >> that is exactly right. so there is a group called the joint committee on taxation which a congressional nonpartisan group which assessed the bill an even incorporated economicest masts for how the economy will grow, this is a $1 trillion hit on the deficit. this is something however that republicans have largely dismissed. mitch mcconnell saying that essentially this will pay for itself and there will be enough growth. there are very few economists who say that will happen so this is a stark change. >> the democrats complained loudly that they didn't have time to read the amendments and some of them arrived happened written with words you can't even understand. we saw john testa there. but does this set a president dent in terms of how bills are drafted and passed. >> we'll see if it sets a pressa

dent. this is hard to predict. but the republicans has learned of a way of avoiding public out cry. the health care bill for example was drafted very quickly and in part that was to avoid the sort of organized activity by grassroots americans coming out and saying they object to it. and now this has to go back to the house and senate there is time to raise objections or support if they choose to do so but it was clear part of the speed was metropolitan to try to offset objections. >> we talk about this as a tax bill but it is also a health bill. it will repeal obamacare video man dade which is crucial to the survival of the market place. what are the implications for the broad sector of american economy touched by this. >> there are huge implications. it is a totally important point. and to some extent we don't even know what all of the implications are in part because of the bill was cobbled together yesterday and has a lot of potential loopholes an potential implications but the health care

one. this is almost certainly going to lead to more people who are dropping out of health care and coverage or more people who end up declaring bankruptcy because they don't have health care coverage. the congressional budget office looked at this and because of the repeal of the individual mandate there is essentially -- the federal government will make money off people who make less than $40,000 despite the tax cuts because they are saving money on not helping to subsidize health insurance. in that regard, this is even more beneficial to the wealthy and less beneficial to poor americans because of that change to the video mandate. >> but at the same time, philip, the president had -- what is his biggest legislative victory and overshadowed by the flynn situation. >> right. >> what do we think the white house is feeling right now? because their initial reaction is this is not a big deal. >> if you look at what donald trump said, at every point along the way he said this is not a big deal. even after the

donald trump jr. and the russian lawyer emerged last year. so that is the white house standard line. but this is a big deal. that michael flynn was charged with only one small thing suggests he is working with robert mueller team and he is prepared to give testimony and robert mueller won't make a deal to give up some low ranking member of the trump staff. there is clearly some bigger fish we're looking at here and there are stealed indictments and we don't know all of the answers but it is clear that mueller has his eyes on something big. >> the significance of flynn's information may be equally dio metrically opposed to the small size of the charges. philip bump from the washington post, thank you. tomorrow morning on face the nation here, john dickerson's guests will include republican senate lindsey graham of south carolina, mick mulvaney and senate angus king, independent of maine.

illegal possession of a firearm. and how this is again raising questions about so-called sanctuary cities such as san francisco. >> reporter: a day after zarate was found not guilty in the murder of kate steinle, he faces deportation and potential federal prison time for violating his problems. an amended arrest warrant unsealed on friday said he must be returned to forward custody and transported to texas for sentencing. but it is unclear whether he would serve his time in the stein lee case before he is turned over to the feds. he faces up to three years behind bars when he is sentenced. thursday's verdict has also reignited an in tense national debate over immigration and sanctuary city policies like san francisco. >> from day one, this case was used as a means to ferment hate. >> reporter: he had been recently released from the san francisco jail when h

shot steinle in 2015. under sanctuary city policy he had not been turned over to immigration authorities. president trump referenced the killing throughout his campaign. >> another victim is kate steinle. gunned down in the sanctuary city of san francisco. >> reporter: the president weighed in on the verdict on twitter on friday accusing tom democrats of being weak on crime and calling the exoneration a travesty of justice and san francisco has pushed back against criticism vowing to stand by their so-called sanctuary city policy.

including one that could determine how we draw up congressional districts. two other cases before the court could also have major implications. >> one involves government access to our cell phone records. the other looks at whether business owners can refuse to accommodate same-sex couples due to religious objections. >> start with the cell phone record. on tap with that case? >> this case comes amongst a larger conversation how much access law enforcement can get to our digital records. no doubt, there is more information about me on this cell phone than in my entire home. in this case law enforcement was

robberies, without a warrant able to get cell phone location data. when your cell phone pings to a tower. the suss spent got to the supreme court, convicted partially on this data. they had almost 13,000 points of data fo him and he sued saying they shouldn't have been able to get this without a warrant. >> the case involves the fourth amendment literally written centuries ago and now applied to new technology. how difficult to interpret this? >> a longstanding principle once you give your information or data to ta third party it's fair game for law enforcement. look at our phones and think how much information you almost have to hand over to a third party if you want a cell phone. there are laws on the books that speak this to, but from the mid-80s. think about what technology was like then. they don't apply. the justices are in a spot and need to clarify so law enforcement can do their job and seem open in argument. curtailing this, perhaps, a

involves a colorado cake shop, significant implications for same-sex couples. tell us about it? >> the only thing stressful than law enforcement and technology is wedding planning. tell you right now. in this case, a christian business owner, jack phillips, he is a christian businessman and employs a lot of credit principles in his business. for example, not open on sundays. he has refused to make cakes that involve alcohol or for halloween or that celebrate divorce. so, of course, a same-sex couple came to his bake shop want add cake and he refused. they sued arguing that colorado's anti-discrimination laws do not allow him to refuse to bake this cake. he actually challenged that on first amendment grounds. interesting. not arguing about religious freedom. he's saying the state cannot compel me to create a message i

disagree with. >> what are the implications here potentially for businesses? >> sweeping implications. some concerns that now anyone who's in a quote/unquote artistic business that would be in terms of marriage, florists, hair salons, calligraphers, could now refuse to provide services. some say, look, a pre-techtural argument, it's a pretty good one. a hunt for a while after the supreme court decided same-sex marriage is marriage, there's a hunt for cases that could get back to the supreme court to try to carve out exceptions like this here. >> interesting. not at the supreme court level, you've reported on a department of justice investigation involving prominent ivy league university and affirmative action policies. >> right. this could potentially go back to the supreme court. that's part of the idea. the president himself has said perhaps it is time for affirmative action to be revisited. do we still need it? under that umbrella t

investigating harvard university for possibly discriminating against asian students in its affirmative action policies. now, harvard has declined to provide the justice department with everything it wants in this investigation. just late last night i spoke with harvard and they accepted they have complied, given the justice department everything they want and so far we've seen in the case compliance, having trouble agrees what exactly that is, what that means. we'll see monday whether or not the justice department sues them, or if the two sides will continue to proceed with this investigation, but it is unprecedented. unusual for the justice department to investigate systemic discrimination as a university and also happened amid a time when the justice department sieve's rights division is rolling back. >> political appointees at the justice department leading this investigation, right? >> yes. the civil rights division at the justice department and we tried to ask the attorney general about this earlier this week and you've seen on cbs "this morning" and "evening news" those quest s

crew and animals along with an immense construction project. demille commissioned designer paul ereceive known as the father of art deco to build a lavish set, 12 stories high, 800 feed wide in the guadeloupe sand dunes of the california coast. after filming wrapped, the set was too expensive to move and demille ordered it buried. >> no such thing as over the top for cecil b. demille. >> reporter: this author wrote the biography, "empire of dreams." >> they believed in the physicality of movies. if they were going to do the civil war, they did the civil war. they got a couple hundred people or a couple thousand people and made the civil war. if he's re-creating ancient egypt he builds it on the same scale as ancient egypt was

unearthed one of the 21 sphinxes demille left behind. this week discovered a 300-pound head still intact after nearly a century in the sand. >> given these objects lasted for years even though only built to last two months during filming, it speaks to the craftsmanship and level of skill the artisans who built them. >> reporter: recovery of these hollywood artifacts is a delicate process. unlike the great sphinx of giza carved by ang sent egyptians ow bedrock, the ones built here are made of plaster of paris. despite agility, the statues have a surviving characteristic. they were painted, even though in a black and white film. >> would have used different pigments to create shadows and light and prevent this very solid look of one color either blac

so in the movie these are great. >> wow! >> what a production. >> i love this. >> the good news for wannabe indiana joneses like myself who came to see this magical foe egypt, the sphinx heads on display at the guadeloupe dunes starting next year. >> okay. i'm going. >> book your ticket now. >> i love it when the sets were as epic as the movie. >> right. and other director, might use them. so bury them in the sand for 100 years. the physicality of movies. ?- >> they don't make them like they used to. >> sure don't. speaking of a hollywood tale, andy weir, the mind behind the blockbuster movie "the martian." he tells us about his new book, his interest in scientific detail and what nearly killed his career. stick around. you're watching

welcome to cbs welcome to cbs this morning saturday. i'm anthony mason. >> and i'm alex wagner. coming up this hour, michael flynn's guilty plea brings special counsel robert mueller closer to president trump and his top adviser. the former national security adviser is cooperating with mueller to answer the question, did president trump collude with russia to win the 2016 election. >> americans have led the way in their obsession with coffee but growing coffee here has never been commercially viable. we'll show you why that's changing and where it's happening. >> and for over 15 years, the band spoon has built a dedicated following with critically

live shows. we'll talk with them about their road to stardom, that's ahead. overhauling taxes. the senate voted early this morning 51-49 to pass a major tax reform bill that's viewed as a victory for president trump. the $1.5 trillion measure would slash corporate tax rate to 20% and repeal a fee paid by some americans who do not buy health insurance under obamacare. it's projected to raise the deficit by $1.4 trillion over the next decade. >> no democrats voted for the measure and many complained they did not get enough time to read all the last-minute changes. >> everybody had plenty of opportunity to see the measure. you complain about process when you're losing. that's what you heard on the floor tonight. >> after the vote, president trump tweeted h

passed. it must now be reconcileled with the house version of the bill. russia meddling investigation led by special counsel robert mueller has reached into president trump's inner circle. former national security adviser flynn pleaded guilty to lying to the fbi. it is part of a deal that retires the three-star army general to cooperate with the investigation. white house lawyer ty cobb distanced the guilty plea from the president by saying the charge implicates no one other than michael flynn. >> for more on the busy 24 hours in washington, we turn to ed o'keefe, a congressional reporter for "the washington post" and a cbs news contributor. ed, good morning. >> good morning, guys. >> how did republicans get to the finish line in the early hours of this morning? >> 1:49 a.m., anthony, most things don't happen in this town that late or early in the morning. they had to cut some deals with various republicans to make sure they would vote for this thing. pwhen you only have 52 republicans in the senate, you needed at least

among other things, they made some changes to how much you can deduct in your property taxes, how much certain so-called pass-through companies will be able to benefit from tax cuts. and even had to do things like permit drilling in the alaska national wildlife refuge in order to get votes from lisa murkowski, the senator from alaska. this is how horse trading works and republicans did what they needed to do. >> democrats were not happy about their ability to view the bill. senator clay mccaskill said she got revisions from lobbyists rather than her own colleagues across the aisle. did republicans know what was in this bill? >> i think it's fair to say, alex, that no member of the u.s. senate read the whole thing or was totally aware of what's in it. mitch mcconnell makes a good point. when you're complaining about process, you're losing. but democrats have a fair point as well. you have more than 500 --

roughly 500 pages of new tax policy that adds more than $1.5 trillion to the deficit most likely and how can you be passing that without, you know, taking a breath and trying to sort out what exactly is in there. similar charges were made back in the day when the affordable care act was passed and republicans complained that democrats were rushing the process but as mcconnell said, when you're losing, this is all you can really complain about. the house and the senate now have to get together over the next few days, try to come up with a final compromise. undoubtedly, you're going to see similar rush jobs on certain aspects of the legislation. this is not the final product. >> ed, as you alluded to, the senate bill gets rid of most state and local tax deduction, which is going to hurt taxpayers in states like new york, new jersey, california and big cities which have high local taxes. is this a potential problem with republican house members in those states? >> it is. they did not vote for the house plan because there were

folks from those states. they called it s.a.l.t., state and local taxes. we've been calling the lawmakers concerned about this saltines for the last several weeks. they're going to be a factor. there's about 20 of them in the house. republicans can't afford to lose too many votes. the compromise in the senate was folks could deduct up to $10,000 in your property taxes. we'll see if that's an acceptable compromise to those republicans in the house. >> and there is a government shutdown looming, is there not, ed? >> that's right. friday. circle your calendar. if congress can't pass some kind of short-term spending plan by then, we may have a partial government shutdown. >> as if there wasn't enough drama in washington already, ed

shocked the french and recogn e recognized california as a world class wine region. >> california has long been a leader in agriculture but one crop that's never been commercially viable anywhere in the continental u.s. is coffee until now. jamie has the story. >> reporter: the coffee market is estimated to be an $80 billion industry. grown in 50 countries. now a farmer has the coffee world buzzing. the question is whether americans will pay the same for a high end cup of coffee as they would for a glass of that california chardonnay. high above the pacific ocean in galita california, referred to by locals as the good land, jay has been farming the land for 25 years, growing an eclectic mix of tropical crops from avocados to passion fruit to dragon fruit. how many acres does this farm go in total? >> about 40

half is dedicated to agriculture. >> reporter: it's a long ride down this narrow country road just to make it off the mountain. having coffee around the house is convenient. but he has taken that to a whole new level. >> this is our gish sha coffee. want you to take a little whiff of that. you can -- >> reporter: oh, boy, wow. this geisha was grown here on his farm. >> it's a layered agricultural system. >> reporter: rusty and his colleague lindsay showed us some of the approximately 1,500 coffee trees kept shaded by larger fruit trees. >> you can see coffee blossoms forming along the stem here. each of these flowers will eventually become a coffee cherry which has two seeds in it. >> reporter: those cherry seeds are what we know as beans. >> so take a coffee cherry and just pop it in your mouth. >> reporter: okay. it's very

it's almost got like a mild pepper taste. a little sweetness to it. >> that sweetness is what we need for a really good cup of coffee. >> reporter: the land in the continental united states has never been hospiceable for growing coffee. because the cherries mature faster in the heat, coffee is traditionally produced in hot climates. adding shade slows down the process but increases the quality. why do you think no one's ever tried it before in california? >> the main reason is that there wasn't a market for it. >> now there's a new giant sized instant maxwell house, a really big jar of coffee. >> reporter: for decades, coffee was packaged and sold to the masses as an inexpensive commodity. >> we make it a special way so you can save money. >> mm, great coffee. >> reporter: beginning in the late '60s, companies like starbucks brought in a second wave, focusing on quality and the cafe experience. >> in 2002,

movement of coffee shops that had smaller roefsters and wante to know where the coffee was coming from. the consumers would pay a little more for that. >> reporter: an audacious idea began brewing. when you started thinking about this and developing this, did people tell you you were crazy to think about growing coffee in california? >> yes, it was a weekly event for people. i've had people call on the phone and it will be the first two sentences. they say, hey, you jay? yeah, you're crazy, you can't be growing coffee outside. all right. it's rapid seed development for sure. >> reporter: this year, he teamed up with charlie of blue bottle coffee which operates 48 cafes in cities around the u.s. and tokyo. >> looks like you're going to be ready to pick again in two months. >> they're going to slow down and work on quality. so we're really eight months away. >> reporter: he travels five months a year purchasing coffee in places like ethiopia, guatemala, u

the northern california native had been tracking rusky's path from afar. >> it can compete with the best coffees in the world. this isn't just support for the coffee because it's coming from california but it is a strong val uation that we want to make on this market on behalf of consumers so that we can have that conversation with people about why coffee costs what it costs. >> reporter: blue bottle purchased the entire 2017 crop. 300 pounds. we were there when the shipment left for roasting facility in oakland. it will be sold in blue bottle also across the country for $16 a cup. he says blue bottle is not just selling a cup of coffee but the story of where it came from. but for many american consumers, they just got used to a 3, $4 cup of coffee. for the average person, where does that land? >> i think if you walk into a cafe and if you

275, $4.50, $18, right, the first thing that you're going to need to know to make sense out of that $18 cup is why is it so expensive. >> reporter: after significant investments in research and development, it costs him approximately $30 a pound to produce and blue bottle $65 a pound to purchase. >> if you drink coffee and if you do have a couple of moments to reflect on where it comes from, exactly how it tastes, you know, maybe why it tastes that way, if roasters are doing a good enough job of helping you understand it, i think it's a really easy step to take. >> reporter: all right, so this is my favorite part. >> it's really fresh coffee. it explodes in bubbles just like what just happened here. >> reporter: nice, the whole ritual of the coffee making, the anticipation for the cup. >> piping hot. >> reporter: piping hot, very smooth.

rusky's new venture is working closely with farmers throughout southern california to make the entire region a coffee powerhouse. >> it's just like wine. if you have a really good wine crop, there are people out there that want to experience what you've been working hard on and that's what we're offering. >> reporter: when you look ahead, what does success look like to you? >> southern california is well known for having the most rarest and flavorful cups of coffees in the world. that would be ultimately successful for me. >> reporter: then you figure out another crazy idea i think. >> probably. >> his good land organic coffee will be available at blue bottle later this month. >> you think when the coffee came here, the price would go down, not up. >> that's true. >> i got to say, jamie, for 16 bucks, i want a dozen amazing doughnuts with that cup of coffee. >> i will say it was possibly the best cup of coffee i've ever had. it was very, very special. >> it's an incredible story. >> you didn't bring any free
