On monday he had this message about north korea for china china has been taking out massive amounts of money and wealth from the u. S. In totally onesided trade but wont help with north korea. Nice. That prompted this response from chinas state News Agency Twitter shouldnt become an instrument of foreign policy. Foreign policy isnt childs play. But twitter has proven an important tool for trump, a modern way of talking directly to the people. I want to tell you what has been done in the last few days. Reporter like f. D. R. Through radio and j. F. K. With television. I have several announcements to make. Reporter in todays social media era, trumps tweets can dominate a news cycle. He said on twitter.

Reporter two former president ial chiefs of staff, Democrat Bill daley and republican andy card told cbs this morning they dont expect him the walk away from the medium hes made his own. I think the tweet world will be our world for a long time. Think before you tweet or speak. It was before it was before you speak. Now its before you tweet. Reporter now beyond foreign capitals, trumps tweets are also rattleling corporate boardrooms and have even affected the stock price of specific companies.

Elliott that was one of three times that mr. Trump fired Omarosa Manigault on the apprentice. Well, today he hired her to be director of communications in the office of public liaison. And there is pushback against mr. Trumps choice for attorney general. Six arrests were made last night when protestors from the naacp staged a sitin after Jeff Sessions Senate Office in alabama. Theyve blasted his record on civil rights and Voting Rights enforcement. More now from David Begnaud. The protesters said they were taking a stand by sitting down. They refused to leave senator Jeff Sessions mobile, alabama, office. This is what they got. Six protesters were arrested last night. One of them was bernard simelton, president of the alabama naacp state conference. You were handcuffed, taken to jail, mugshot. Yep. Reporter was it worth it . Oh, absolutely, absolutely. Elliott sessions was the first senator to endorse donald trump and became the first president elects first cabinet selection, nominated to be attorney general. Critics like simelton say sessions record as Alabama State attorney general and then federal prosecutor make him unqualified. Ensuring that people like you and i, our civil rights are protected, we this not believe that he will do that. Elliott simelton points to sessions admission to the u. S. Senate in 1986 that he had previously called the naacp unamerican for its advocacy tactics. Senators rejected sessions appointment the a federal judgeship. Senator sessions may be a good person, but hes not the right person for this job. Elliott William Smith disagrees. Hes from alabama and hes worked with senator sessions for ten years. Hes known him for 20. The people making these allegations havent spent any time with senator sessions. You wont find anyone who has spent a substantial amount of time with senator sessions who would make these allegations, no one. Elliott on tuesday senator sessions goes before the same Senate Judiciary committee that rejected him in 1986, although there are new members now. Josh, the naacp has taken their protest from here in alabama to d. C. They wouldnt tell us what theyre planning. Elliott David Begnaud in birmingham, david, thank you. Today in south carolina, dylann roof spoke to the jury that will decide whether he gets the Death Penalty for the Charleston Church massacre. The same jury convicted him of federal hate crimes for the murders of nine black parishioners. Mark strassmann is in charleston. Reporter dylann roof spoke softly and calmly to jurors. The reason i chose to represent myself was to prevent my lawyers from presenting a Mental Health evaluation. Forget what my attorneys have told you about my Mental Health. There is nothing wrong with me psychologically. He did not apologize. He also never admitted to the killings the way he did to f. B. I. Agents the day he was arrested. I went to that church in charleston. I did it. Reporter assistant u. S. Attorney Nathan Williams was emphatic today. This defendants horrific acts justify the Death Penalty. He killed them because of the color of their skin. This case is worse because of the premeditation, because of this defendants lack of remorse. Williams introduced roofs jailhouse journal, which he wrote six weeks after the murders. I would like the make it Crystal Clear i do not regret what i did. I am not sorry. I do not shed a tear for the innocent people i killed. Clementa pinckney, mother emanuels pastor, was one of them. His wife jennifer and sixyearold daughter malana were hiding under a desk in this adjoining office during the massacre. Jennifer pinckney told jurors, as roof kept shooting, the petrified girl whispered to her, mama, is daddy going to die . By then Clementa Pinckney lay among the dead and dying. Sharon rishers mother and two of her cousins were among the victims. To have him nonexistence on this earth, i mean, my life still has to go on. If he dies, its not going to make my life better. Reporter at one point roof objected to the sheer number of relatives and friends testifying about their losses. Josh, the judge reminded him, thats because there are so many victims. Elliott mark strassmann, thank you. Well, chicago, which just had one of its most violent years ever, was the scene of a horrifying attack this week. A young man described as Law Enforcement sources as developmentally challenged was beaten, kicked and tormented for half an hour. Video of the assault streamed live on facebook yesterday. The victim had been reported missing from his home in the suburbs. He is now in the hospital and four suspects are in custody. While in new york today, more than 100 people were injured during the morning rush when packed commuter train crashed as it entered its brooklyn terminal. Many had cuts and bruises. The worst suffered a broken leg. The Long Island Railroad train, toe moving slowly, plowed through a bumper block. The from the of the train lifted off the track and crashed into a work area. Federal investigators are now on the scene. Still to come here on the cbs evening news, consumers find a big tax on soft drinks hard to swallow.

Grocery store owner jeff brown says its hurting his customers. This threeliter soda, our price is 1. 39, and the additional tax is 1. 52. Then theres sales tax.

Aside from health benefits, deputy revenue commissioner Marisa Waxman says the tax is meant to help the community.

Reporter but Irving Graham says the city has to find a better way. He returned his iced tea after realizing he paid almost 2 in beverage taxes. I got my money back. Reporter some people told me theyll consider traveling outside of philadelphia to avoid the tax altogether, and others say theyll simply start drinking more water. Josh, at least four other cities across the country have passed a similar tax on sugary drinks. Elliott more water certainly cant hurt. Jericka duncan in philadelphia. Thank you.
