The Turkish Military is pushing deeper into Northern Syria this morning in its massive offensive against kurdish allies of the United States. Turkey accuses the kurds of being terrorists. A Human Rights Group says at least 16 people have been killed, and 33 wounded in the assault so far. Turkish forces attacked by land and air after u. S. Troops in the region pulled back from their positions near the syrian border. President trump who agreed to withdraw the troops is now calling the turkish attack, quote, a bad idea. Charlie dagata is in Northern Syria this morning. He has reported extensively from the region. Reporter well, we just crossed that river from iraq to here in Northern Syria. Its a crossing weve made several times in the past year. But this time, its different. The Kurdish Forces who weve accompanied in their fight against isis are now under attack themselves from a u. S. And nato ally. The Turkish Military unleashed an onslaught of artillery and air strikes overnight targeting tlabid and another syrian town. Both recently vacated by u. S. Forces. Thats not all. The Turkish Defense ministry say they struck 180 socalled terrorist targets across 150mile span that includes key cities. And they say a ground offensive has begun today. It is already underway. Now commanders of the kurdish Led Syrian Democratic forces say theyve had to pause operations against isis in order to face down this turkish invasion. They also say the offensive has jeopardized the security of prisons housing thousands of isis prisoners, risking a breakout or possibly leading to an isis resurgence. The military action the past 24 hours has sparked a mass exodus of thousands of civilians who are trying to flee the reach of turkish artillery and air strikes. And the sdf has warned of the humanitarian catastrophe if this turkish offensive continues at this intensity. Now i can tell you we spent years with these sdf forces, watching from the front lines in their fight against isis. Men and women who have helped protect us. They say they were broadsided by what happened. They feel abandoned and betrayed. Charlie dagata, thank you. At the white house yesterday President Trump answered questions about syria and turkey and his decision to pull bk u. S. Troops. I think were doing a great job. I think the people of this country, i campaigned on ending the endless wars. Were all over the world fighting wars. We are doing the right thing, and i think the country feels that, too. Weve had tremendous support outside of the washington, Little Washington area. And even in Washington People are saying youre doing the right ing. At least a dozen republican senators have publicly criticized the publics decision. Face the nation moderator and Senior Foreign Affairs correspondent Margaret Brennan joins us now. Good morning. Based on your reporting, is it your understanding that the president has support of people from his administration and National Security team on this issue . Reporter no. The pentagon and state Department Officials all the way up to the secretary of state had argued for a much stronger response to prevent turkey from harming u. S. Allies in syria. But this policy is being driven by the president s conviction here. He is totally convinced and solely focused that he nodes to pull out u. S. Troops he needs to pull out u. S. Troops, and this is despite the white house has opposed the turkish invasion. It is what he said to turkeys president erdogan that contradicted the u. S. Stance because he agreed to pull u. S. Troops out of the area, and that was seen as a green light. Margaret, we heard the president threaten Major Economic consequences for forecast if it goes too turkey if it goes too far. What exactly is the red line here . Reporter exactly, no ones defined too far. Generally in is a threat of sanctions. U. S. Officials are concerned by a few things. One, that civilians are getting killed. That the turks are going to target kurdish fighters that the u. S. Fought alongside. In the future, what happens to all those Syrian Refugees . Turkeys erdogan suggested he wants to push millions of them who fled the war back into the border area. The u. S. Wants it to happen in a humane way. Is it possible to u. S. Troops could be drawn back into the region . Reporter it always is in the middle east. You wont lose money betting that. Im told in this case, turkeys erdogan is not expected to stand down. He is hellbent on this invasion. The focus is on just how far turkish troops go into syria and if it extends beyond the safe zone. There are still roughly about 1,000 troops, u. S. Troops, at other locations in that country. Margaret, what happens with the isis fighters being held by the kurds . Whats likely to happen to them . Reporter there are two in particular that have gotten a lot of attention. The scheduled beatles, the u. S. And the u. K. Are negotiating over them because they were directly involved in the killing of american journalists including james foley. They man extradited to the u. S. , but the u. K. Has to agree. Other highvalue detainees are being moved from prisons that have been jointly secured by the u. S. And kurdish fighters into military prisons. The challenge for months now is that there are thousands of fighters whose home countries stripped them of citizenship. And now many of those European Countries are refusing to take them back. Its the fate of those fighters and their families who are living in camps inside syria that many are worried about because the concern is that in the chaos that will result from this invasion, it could allow isis to regroup. All right. Margaret brennan. Thank you. Cbs news has obtained the full contents of the whistleblower memo at the center of the house impeachment inquiry. And a fox news poll released yesterday shows 51 of registered voters believe President Trump should be impeached and removed from office. Thats an increase of 9 in the past three months. Weijia jiang is at the white house. What more do we know about the whistleblower . Reporter well, right now we are talking about this memo because President Trump continues to call it a scam, pointing to the whistleblower being a registered democrat. Cbs news has learned that the person was a has a prior working relationship with a current democratic president ial contenders. But lawyers say their client has never worked for or advised a Political Party or a campaign, and say the real issue here is the president s conduct and not the whistleblowers resume. I had a perfect phone call with the president of ukraine. Reporter the whistleblowers twopage memo memorializes how a white house official who was listening in described President Trumps phone call as crazy, fraught new england, and completely frightening, and completely lacking in substance related to National Security. The official was visibly shaken. The president s personal lawyer, rudolph giuliani, tells cbs news the memo discredits the whistleblowers formal complaint. This poor little sissy was worried. Nobody was threatening anyone. But in the officials view, mr. Trump had clearly committed a criminal act. On wednesday, former Vice President joe biden joined his fellow 2020 president ial candidates and called for President Trumps impeachment for the first time. Hes shooting holes in the constitution. And we cannot let him get away with it. [ applause ] reporter biden also told cbs boston station wbz that he did nothing wrong as Vice President while his son, hunter, served on the board of a Ukrainian Energy company. I dont discuss things with my son and my family because i dont want to have any knowledge of any i dont want to be accused of, well, talk with your son, whomever. Reporter bides camp said he changed his minds on impeachment in part because of the president s decision to refuse to cooperate with congress. The whole thing is a scam. Its a fix. Reporter with or without President Trumps cooperation, democrats are charging forwards with their investigation. Cbs news has learned that the three house committees working on this have requested that fiona hill, the president s former senior director for russia on the National Security council, testify next week. Tony . All right. Thank you so much. We want to get to news out of california which is facing a critical fire danger this morning. At least a half dozen wildfires are burning across the state at this hour. And forecasters say high winds and low humidity are increasing the risk. Those conditions prompted the states largest power utility, pg e, to shut off electricity to more than 700,000 customers. John Jonathan Vigliotti is in sonoma. Doesnt sound good. How is it affecting People Living there . Reporter yeah, very hard as you can imagine. A lot of people still without power. It could last for days. One expert telling us that the state could lose in total about 2. 5 billion, billion with a b. Some of the hardest hit areas, downtowns like here in sonoma. The power was cut yesterday morning as the high winds started to pick up. Some people telling us they only got a few hours notice before the lights were cut. The high winds that fueled wildfires Late Wednesday continued overnight. The dangerous mix of swaying trees and power lines would increase the wildfire threat if the power wasnt already cut. Ron blasingame is coping with the blackout. I should have bought a generator. Those are gone. Theyre gone. Nobody has those. Reporter he says pacific gas and electric hasnt been doing its job to keep its infrastructure safe. They havent cleared the brush from their lines, but they want to pay dividends and give their executives money. Its public utility, you know, were paying for that. Reporter whats your mortgage to pg e . Do your job. Protect the public. Reporter many waited in long lines to fill their gas tanks before the puchs lost electricity pumps lost electricity and shut down. Barry friedmans Home Improvement store lost power but managed to stay open. Guiding customers by flashlight to buy among other things flashlights. A lot of people coming in, is it fair to say some were caught offguard by this . For sure. Unfortunately, weve run out of some of the products they need. Reporter Debbie Medina relies on her cpap and will oxygen generators to stay alive. Her condition prevents her from getting to community centers. What are you going to do with people like myself . I know im not the only one. Reporter a lot of people say they feel like they are being punished for what theyre calling pg es failures. Listen, this is going to be a longterm problem. To put this in perspective, it could cause as much as 110 billion to place all of the overheadlines undergrounds, some of the more pressing concerns as simple as communications. A lot of people coming up, asking to charge their cell phones, using our generators. Anthony . Jonathan, thank you. A top German Security official says authorities are not ruling out terrorism as a possible motive for a deadly shooting near a synagogue. Police say the suspected gunman killed two people yesterday in the city of halle. The entire rampage was live streamed. The man is seen showing off weapons and ammunition inside a car. Police say he shot and killed a woman in the street and a man inside a store. The gunman also tried breaking into a synagogue where dozens of worshippers were observing yom kippur. He was not able to get in. Police ultimately arrested the gunman. Former nbc news anchor matt lauer is breaking his silence amid new allegations of rape almost two years from being fired from the network. In an open letter, lauer denied he sexually assaulted a coworker while working at the 2014 Winter Olympics in sochi. Lauer said his relationship with Brooke Nevils was completely consensual and called her Rape Allegation categorically false. The graphic details are revealed in ronan farrows soon to be released book catch and kill. In a fiery response to the Rape Allegation against him, former today show host matt lauer in a public letter state his silence has been a mistake, writing, for two years, the women with whom i had extramarital relationships have abandoned shared responsibility and instead shielded themselves from blame behinds false allegations. Lauer directed most of his sharp denials of the Sexual Misconduct allegations against him toward Brooke Nevils who told ronan in catch and kill that he raped her in the hotel room at the olympics in 2014. Lauer writes, there was absolutely nothing aggressive about the encounter. At no time did she appear in a way that made it appear she was incapable of consent. Wednesday, nevils called the open letter an attempt to bully a former colleague into silence. She says, i am not afraid of him now regardless of his threats and the shaming and predatory tactics. In catch and kill, farrow writes he uncovered seven allegations of workplace Sexual Misconduct against lauer predating his november, 2017, firing. In a memo to employees, nbc news chairman andy lack says any suggestion executives knew of allegations against lauer before his firing are absolutely false and offensive. In a statement, nbc called lauers conduct appalling, horrific, and reprehensible, adding he was fire wednesdayin 24 hours of us first learning fired less than 24 hours of the claim. Fair row claimed weinstein used leverage to suppress stories about himself and made it known to the network that he was aware u of lauers behavior and capable of revealing it. Farro eventuallyly took the story to the new yorker, and lack defended the networks handling of the weinstein story saying farrow didnt have our standard for broadcast. A media reporter for the Los Angeles Times the bosses tend to be supportive of their executives. Unless there is flagrant wrongdoing, i doubt that were going to see any type of executive changes because of this. Reporter on twitter wednesday, nevils broke her silence and said she wanted to thank the many survivors who shared their stories with her and offered their support.

We start with a tough story here that for the first time were hearing from the family of a 9yearold boy accused of intentionally setting a deadly home fire in illinois. Kyle allwood is charged with five counts of first degree murder. Five people died in the april fire including some of kyles young relatives. We spoke exclusively with kyles mother. Reporter Katie Allwood tells us prosecutors have gone too far in charging her son. She says because of multiple death threats, kyle is having to live with other relatives. But she also says he was recently diagnosed with a form of schizophrenia, adhd and bipolar disorder. She says her son is a loving person who deserves a second chance. Everyone is looking at him like hes some kind of monster, but thats not who she is. Reporter katie fighting back tears as she speaks about her 9yearold son kyle charged this week with killing five people back in april when he set fire to the family home. Yes, its a horrible tragedy but its still not something to throw his life away over. The victims are all members of the family. Katies other children, her grandmother, her fiance and her niece. Katie was in the home when the fire broke out while most of the victims were sleeping but was only able to save herself. I stood at the window and i told my kids i was sorry i couldnt save them, mommy was right here and i loved them. At least hopefully they heard that. I told jason i love him, ill always love him. Something told me that theyre gone. So there was a moment where you can hear them screaming . Yeah. You could hear your fiance . Yeah. And then it ended. I dont know whats worse, hearing him scream or when it stopped. We walk with katie through her sisters home next door. Samantha was roses mother. She got me out of bed. She made my days better and it hurts her not being here. Unlike her sister, samantha wants her nephew kyle to face a strict punishment. I think he should go somewhere until hes legal age to go to juvy and then from this to prison. At the end of the day, whether he meant to or not, he knew what fire did. Gloria Brown Marshall says pinning a murder charge on a child is an abuse of power by the prosecutor. Its difficult to understand how a 9yearold would have the state of mind to know that their action would result in a death. Katie says her son deserves to pay for his alleged actions, but says the family has already suffered enough. I did hlose, you know, my family too, but i forgive him. I love him no matter what. The family telling us kyle had previously shown an interest in lighters and in fire, but katie says she hopes the judge takes into consideration his mental state as well as the person she says he is. The local prosecutor here is defending the decision to file murder charges and tells us kyle is only likely to face probation. That little boy will face a judge here at this court house on the 21st. Wow. Thats a powerful interview. You layout the story so well. Very disturbing. Its a really tough one. Just a complete tragedy for that family. Theyll never be the same. You can understand why the mother doesnt want to lose really in effect an additional child by putting that cld away forever.

You buy them in the story, theyre about 60 apiece. Theres been so much coverage about the legal market, and no ones been covering the illicit market. Reporter mark hoashi runs an app to provides customer reviews on cannabis products. A year and a half ago long before reports of deaths and illnesses across the country, he noticed something people were getting sick. Like they were getting headaches on this product and this product. Reporter many of the vape cartridges came from an underground scene like the one we went to. The current black market comes with a cartridge that has a brand, that has social media, that has websites, and its hard to distinguish between what is a Legal Cannabis product and what is an elicit product. Reporter thats becoming a big problem for art kushkyan. Good morning reporter he founded pure vape, a legal thc oil producer licensed in california. By law, his tamperproof vapes include warning labels and lab results on the page. Are you worried someone might pry to copy your package might try to copy your package egg and a dangerous product . Very much so. Reporter hes already seen counterfeit pure Vape Products on the black market and warns chers. If it comes it customers. If it comes from a place on the list, we cant guarantee the product. Even if it says pure vape on the package. Unfortunately, i know its crazy, but thats the truth. Reporter we took our black market vapes to bell costa lapse in long beach. Myron renee is ceo. Whats the first thing youve found . I would say predominantly in the underground market is a slew of pesticides. Reporter that was the case for the elicit vapes we picked up. They failed for a total of five pesticides including one called myclobutanil. When you heat myclobutanil, youre then getting hiden cyanide. Reporter cyanide. Something you dont want to inhale. No. Reporter whats the message here . Shop legal. If youre in a state that doesnt have Legal Cannabis, dont buy it. Reporter black market thv cartridges are tough to combat especially in states where more more is still illegal. Federally the food and Drug Administration doesnt regulate thc products because its still considered an illegal drug. Jericka . What an eyeopening report. Thank you. Yeah. Really interesting. Most of these cases around the country, people with lung injuries, the cdc saying theyre tied to the thc stuff. Many consume the black market, street stuff. Dont do it if you never started.

John lennons birthday. We all sign on. Here are a few stories we think youll be talking about today. The nba pressed ahead with an exhibition game between the lakers and nets in shanghai that is happening now. Earlier banners advertising the nba preseason games were taken down amid backlash against the league. The controversy was triggered by a newdeleted tweet by the general manager of the rockets who showed support for the prodemocracy movement in hong kong. Some nba events ahead of the game were canceled, and the game will not be broadcast anywhere in china. The teams have one more game scheduled inchina. That is happening on saturday. A couple of big advertisers pulling out. Its amazing how much power the Chinese Government has over commerce this that country. Shocking.

You would think he just has to type a w and it would fill in the rest. Welcome back to cbs this morning. We have breaking news. Two men connected to Rudy Giuliani have been arrested on Campaign Finance charges. They reportedly helped giuliani make political connections inside ukraine. Federal prosecutors in new york city allege they made an illegal contribution of 325,000 to a Political Action Committee Supporting President Trumps reelection. The indictment claims the men tried to, quote, funnel foreign money to candidates for federal and state office. Giuliani has said that they are clients of his. The former new york mayor has worked with ukraines government to encourage an investigation of former Vice President joe biden and his son. Turkey is escalating attacks on u. S. Backed kurdish fighters in Northern Syria while the Trump Administration defends moving american troops out of the way. Turkish artillery, warplanes, and troops have killed at least 16 kurdish fighters and wounded 33, according to one Human Rights Group. President trumps critics including some republicans say the u. S. Abandoned the kurds who fought isis on americas behalf. The president agreed to pull back u. S. Troops after a sunday phone call with turkeys president. Yesterday, mr. Trump called the invasion a bad idea. Republican senator rand paul is backing President Trumps decision to withdraw u. S. Troops from Northern Syria. The kentucky lawmaker who ran against President Trump in the 2016 election has become a supporter of his Foreign Policy. Senator pauls new book is called the case against socialism. He writes about u. S. Politics including 2020 president ial contender senator Bernie Sanders. Senator paul joins us now for his First Television interview about the book. Senator, good morning. Good morning. Let me start with syria, if i can. In a report from syria earlier in this broadcast, charlie dagget said kurdish fighters feel abandoned and betrayed. Have we left ourself in a verbal position . Initially when President Trump decided to go in, he said our goal was to defeat isis. I think weve achieved that goal. Many keep shifting the goalposts. Lindsey graham said now were going to stay until iran good luck. That could be a long time. Think about what were talking about. Were talking about 50 soldiers. What kind of war do you go to with 50 soldiers . Were moving 50 soldiers out of the onslaught of tens of thousands of turkish troops. Its a smart thing to do and reminds me of beirut. Peti putting 300 people in a be barracks and its a suicide bombing. And then were drug into a greater war. Who are we going to fight . Are we going to fight turkey, the kurds, assad, the russians, iranians . The whole thing is a mess. The kurds have been good allies. What we need is not 50 soldiers fighting. We need a group to sit down and hammer out peace. I think the kurds are mechanore likely t try to find peace now that they are going to have to fight to find peace. Maybe we have been impeding these talk. Senator, if you clarify your position on impeachment before we get to the book. Do you think it was appropriate for President Trump to solicit foreign help in the 2020 campaign or do you think it was inappropriate but just not impeachable . I think the American People want everybody tbe treated equally. And so i think when they see joe biden doing similar similar accusations, joe biden threatened their aid if they didnt fire a prosecutor that was looking into a company where hunter biden was making 50,000 a month. If thats going on and democrat senators are also threatening aid, now theyre saying President Trump threatened the aid t sounds like everybody is threatening ukraines aid over ukraine doing what they want them to do. If you want to be equal, if you want to impeach President Trump, they should have impeached joe biden as well for similar activity. Is it wrong or isnt it . I think its not incorrect or wrong its okay for the president no, let me finish. Aid we give to other countries should be contingent upon behavior and whether or not we should have ukraine trying to eradicate corruption, yes. So this was specifically about well, i dont know. Ask the American People. Im asking you. Youre a senator. I know, but ask the American People do you think 50,000 a month hunter biden was getting might be corrupt . You were running for president in 16. Would you have done this . I think everybody has different ways they would approach things, but sir, you. Well, the thing is now were getting down to whether or not its personality and how he reacted in a phone call. Do you impeach people because he has a more direct way of approaching . Its not a question of impeachment. The question is, is it right or wrong to ask a foreign leader to help in an election with, by the way, nearly 40 400 million in a hanging over his head. Would you say we cant invest corruption if they have to be a political figure. He wasnt speaking to broader corruption. He was speaking he used that word, but he spoke specifically about mr. Biden. If Hunter Bidens father was an industrial magnet in the United States, youd say its okay that he asked to investigate hunter biden. Just because he was a politician you say hes somehow involved in politician. Hes more than a politician. Hes the Democratic Front runner. The i think the chances of joe biden being the nominee are almost thats the i would say do American People want corruption to be looked at equally . They want equal protection under the law. If were going to say what President Trump did was wrong, were going to have to say what joe biden did was wrong. Youre not answering my question. Was it wrong. Im trying. Was it wrong . Four Democratic Senators came forward and said hey, if you dont keep investigating trump, were going to get vote against your aid. Everybody, republican or democrat are doing the exact same thing, so how can we say its impeachable on one side and excuse joe biden on the other side. Notably absent is the answer to the question whether you think its appropriate, however i do want to get to the book because socialism is also in the news. You write that people misunderstand it. They throw the term out there but when you ask them to define it its a problematic thing. These polls to show support are kind of misleading. I think a lot of the next generation, the young people in the country may have forgotten that socialism has been almost invariably associated with genocide and famine. Socialism has evolved into authoritarianism. We want scanned ydinavianism. We make the point that scan nafna scandinavia is not socialist. The big lie youre getting that that rich people pay for it, the top 1 will pay for it. Thats not the way they do it. The working class prepare a huge burden of 25 sales tax for everybody. You have an income tax of 60 that starts at 60,000, so they do have a lot of so hi called free stuff, socialist kind of stuff, welfare stuff in scandinavia, but the middle class pay for it. Nothing is for free. They have enormous taxes, so its a false allure when they say the top 1 will pay for this. Its not enough work. The middle class has took taxed. You also talk a lot in your book about finding Common Ground. How do you do that . How do you do that when you look at the rhetoric thats happening and even the position that youve taken with not being able to answer a question directly. Here is the thing. I was at columbia last night and they asked me what are thing you like about Bernie Sanders and the interesting thing he and i worked together on a lot of things. For example, on war, whether or not the presidt should be allowed to go to war in iran without Congress Voting on it. And while you or bernd might be able to do that, how do you make sure that the president of the United States and others who are in even more powerful positions find that Common Ground . And have you actually spoken to the president in reference to syria . I have not since the decision to move 50 troops around, i have not talked to the president. I talked to the president about two weeks ago and every couple weeks i do talk to the president. What i would say is i think theres a misreporting of acrimony in our country. There iss lot of acrimony on the internet and on television. When you go to washington, youll be surprised to find bernie and i get along. Ive been to his office. Hes been to my office. We talk about things like criminal justice reform. We talk about trying not to go to war without a declaration. Weve worked together on trying toen the war in yemen. I dont like socialism. I think its a disaster. When we talk we dont actually bring up socialism because we disagree on that, but we bring up Foreign Policy and we get on just fine. There are a lot of things that socialism would help with Like Health Care and all the rest. Maybe are other issues in socialism to get to thosens. Fine the money. Were about a trillion dollars short trying to do the stuff you want from government. If you want more from government, tell me where to fine the money. It is all about choices. Senator rand paul, thank you very much. The case against socialism goes on sale october 15th.

To this day, this community does not have a gas station, a bank, or even a grocery store. The categoryfive hurricane barrelled into mexico beach, florida, last october. A year later, reminders of the deadly storm are everywhere. So a year ago that looked exactly the same . Nothing changed . Nothing. Reporter al cathey runs the local Hardware Store and has been mayor for 15 years. When 75 of your city is destroyed, things arent going to happen quickly in a year. Reporter there is clearly progress, but people hearsay insurance payouts have been slow. And dealing with government red tape is frustrating. 1,200 lived here before the storm. Now, its just around 400. Its been a lot of lows in the very beginning, the last six months we you know, got a little click in our heels. Reporter but in nearby panama city, hundreds still live in fema trailer parks more than 2,400 bay District Of Columbia schoolkids are listed as displaced or homeless. And Tyndall Air Force base, a major employer, has spent 700 million on repairs, but still has more to do. I was like reporter trudy white and her husband relocated to florida after losing everything in hurricane katrina. Their cajun restaurant on Panama City Beach avoided a direct hit from michael, but many of her employees werent so lucky. What has been the biggest hurdle to recovery here . Keeping the employees. A lot of people lost their homes in town, and they had to move away because they didnt have any place to live. The people who were able to stay looking for a new place to live, the rent went sky high for everybody. Reporter back on mexico beach, Jessica Schwark is general manager at mango marleys, which is still operating out of a food truck. She says the tide here has begun to turn. When i would see people at first, we would cry and hug. Its still nice to see them, but its a little more normal. You know, were its sad, but this is kind of just our new normal. Reporter this is the new normal. Yeah. Most days we dont even think about the hurricane really. Reporter and despite that progress, clearly there is a long way to go here. Before Hurricane Michael, between houses, apartments, and condos, there were 2,700 unit here. Now, barely 500 of those are livable. Tony . So glad were sticking with the story.

All right. The childrens tv show sesame street is addressing the issue of addiction for the first time. A muppet named carly is in foster care due to her mother battling the problem, in one clip elmo is trying to understand the issue. Take a look. How come carlys mommy had to go away . Well, son, carlys mommy has a kind of sickness, and she had to get some help. Sickness . Oh look, elmo has the sniffles no. Its not that kind of sickness. Carlys mommy has a disease called addiction. Addiction makes people feel like they need a grownup drink called alcohol or another kind of drug to feel okay. Sesame street said data shows 5. 7 million children under the age of 11 live in households with a parent, with a Substance Use disorder. So i think this is so important to be able to target young children, let them know theyre not alone. I mean, even the fact that carlys a foster child, theres well over 600,000 children i believe that are in the foster care system at any given year. So sesame streets always been great about this. About very progressive to be able to tackle that in a delicate way. Talking about real stuff in a way kids can relate to. Now its a resource for when people find the problem comes to their household if it does. Good job, sesame street. Heres mine a new survey suggests that for the first time teenagers in the u. S. Are spending more time on youtube than on netflix. This comes out of a fall, 2019, survey by piper jaffrey. The teens reported spending 37 of their daily video consumption on youtube. They spent 35 on netflix. So youtube has surpassed netflix for the first time. Analysts attributed the popularity to its diverse content options like music videos, video streaming, and influencer videos. They asked teens about what they liked in a whole lot of categories. And the top the top priority was, surprise, surprise, food. The numberone restaurant, chickfila. Very interesting. I love chickfila. There you go. Gayle gayle would have some words for popeyes. Its interesting. Teens do what they call the leanin viewing when youre like this as opposed to the leanback viewing, a netflix thing. Ive seen that. At my home, my kids are like theres a lot of netflix watching. Its free. Yes. Were on youtube. We might be driving this. Call piper jaffray. Thanks. Ill tell you about Something Else this is literally the talk of my table in my household. You know, when theres breaking news, that is a predicament for parents in the news business. Theyve got to somehow juggle home life and the and the life on camera or in the pages of a newspaper. And thats what happened yesterday. An unexpected moment on tv for a correspondent on msnbc. Courtney cuby was reporting on breaking news when she had a visitor. Take a look. Reporter their concern is that they want their concern is that they want to have excuse me, my kids are here. Live television. Courtney later explained that breaking news in syria didnt line up with preschool dropoff. So he and his twin brother were there with me. I think its beautiful. I love hey, me, me, mom, look at my hand. I need your attention. The Network Shared the video on twitter with the hash tags msnbcmoms, and i should point out that im married to an msnbc you are. She is a working mom. The clip has been viewed more than two million times. I think its great. It Shows Parents doing what parents do. We are juggling. I love it. Every day. Love it. All right. Cool. Speaking of very real we have former National Security adviser susan rice. She told us she feels or democracy is under assault, and the attack is coming from within. She was responding to the president s call for ukraine and china to investigate the biden family. That was last week. This week, we are talking to rice about her more than 25 years in Public Service including as u. S. Ambassador to the united nations. We met her across the street from her old offices in new york. Shes got a memoir called tough love my story of the things worth fighting for, published by simon and schuster, a division of cbs. And rice says she wrote the book right now as opposed to later to take back control of her life and career and define it in her terms after feeling targeted in what was one of the most bruising political fights in memory. I was close to president obama. And he was a target. Im an africanamerican woman. I dont take craf of pple. And im confident in my own skin. Putting that together, put it in a political context of a campaign, and maybe i was an attractive target. Susan rice says she may never know why she was swept into the controversy surrounding the 2012 benghazi terror attacks. Accused by republicans of lying about a deadly assault on the u. S. Embassy in libya. I dont trust her. The reason i dont trust her is because i think she knew better, and if she didnt know better she shouldnt be the voice of america. Remember the context, right. We tragically four americans including ambassador Christopher Stevens who was a colleague and friend of mine. For better or for worse, i agreed to be the Administration Representative on those five sunday shows days after that. Do you regret doing it . Yeah. Reporter the intelligence she shared on those shows turned out to be wrong. Rice, who had been a frontrunner to be the next secretary of state, felt pushed to withdraw. So you regret going on the show in part because it stopped you which is to have other people define me for me. Reporter but what really hurts, rice says, is the toll the benghazi episode took on her then9yearold daughter. She was scared. She was seeing images of men coming out of the walls at her. We didnt know what else to characterize these as than hallucinations. We took her to all kind of doctors and were left with the conclusion that in all likelihood this was a stress reaction to what i was going through. And we as parents, i regret, i think, failed to understand that, you know, a tv in the background that we are tuning out, little kid may not. Reporter that would make me as a parent irate. I mean, that kind of impact on my child. You could say i felt the same. Reporter not that conflict or capitol hill were new to susan rice. Her father, emmett, was a governor of the federal reserve, while her mother, lois, rose to a senior job at the college board. But while they were washingtons elite by day, by night they were at each others throat. Screaming and yelling. And the throwing of objects got, you know, pretty frightening for me and my baby brother. Reporter you write that your family was burning down. Why did you run into the fire . I didnt know anything else. Reporter rice not only survived, she thrived. Catapulting to stanford and oxford and then the white house. First as a member of bill clintons National Security council, before joining the obama administration. Has the presidency of donald trump been worse than expected . Of donald trump been worse than expected . Far worse than i ever could have imagined. Far worse. Reporter and yet youre hopeful . Im not hopeful about this president or his policies. Im desperately concerned to be as frank as i can. What im hopeful about is americas capacity to grow and change and to renew itself. Reporter these days, part of that renewal is happening at rices own dinner table. Her son, jake, is a young republican, while her daughter, maris, is a teenage progressive. And while they often disagree, she says, theyre always a family. What makes us able to hang together is that we realize that family is so much more important than our political or policy differences. And so in the same vein, americans need to understand that at the end of the day were in this boat together. We get two choices, like we talked about earlier. You get knocked down, you stay down or get back up. I also asked if shed want to serve as secretary of state if the next president is a democrat, and she told me she would be open to it. Its so interesting to hear her talk about her daughter. And you realize the human cost of the toxic political dialogue that we have when you hear stories like that. Yeah. Thats just devastating. Absolutely. And you know, i want to say, i knew her public persona which is pretty tough and gruff. I knew she was a policy expert. This memoir is very good as a family story. Yeah. Families are complicated, hers morthan most. She came out of it. We saw that picture of her parents, and we all commented, what a great looking couple. Your next line was that wasnt always so great. Not how it looks. It humanizes her. You look at officials like that and forget they have families, they have backgrounds, but shes overcome a lot. Its survivable. Thats the thing. Family chaos, you can get through it. Shes had a remarkable career. Appreciate the conversation. Tomorrow we are broadcasting live from 1200 feet above new york city. Only o cbs this morning, well go to the top of the Empire State Building to report from a brandnew viewing platform on the 102nd floor.
