High above the earth. But a look at todays eye opener. Your world in 90 seconds. We are not nation building again. We are killing terrorists. The president rolls out his plan for afghanistan. Afghanistan has been beating the tar out of invaders for thousands of years. The only answer is to step away and take our people out. President trump has the smarts to listen to his generals and take their advice rather than going the political way. Later today the president will hold a rally in phoenix. The timing could not be worse. Dozens of people are hurt after a train crash outside philadelphia. The navy is ordering a broad investigation after two major ship collisions in two months. Ten sailors are still missing. We need to get to the the man suspected of driving his van into a crowd of people in barcelona killing 13 people is now dead. A strong storm off the coast of italy. Crews continue to rescue survivors. Anger erupts at the First City Council meeting following the deadly violence. A storm system hit kansas city hard. Rivers and dams were inundated and floods were and he wins it on a walkoff bunt and throwing error. And all that matters its gone. Were in darkness. You know what i see . Nothing. Absolutely nothing. I need more more than ever and if you only hold me tight. On cbs this morning. Nobody in america enjoyed it more than fox news smith. A total eclipse of the bang. Wow would you look at that . Sa total eclipse of the sun. I have a total eclipse of the phone. That one is orange and this one is pink. Kwha are they having, guys . Total eclipse of the sun. Can you feel it . Welcome to cbs this morning. Charlie rose is off. Were glad with margaret and bill are here or id be sitting at the table alone. President trump says he has a new strategy to fight the 16yearold war in afghanistan. One way or another, these problems will be solved. Im a Problem Solver and in the end, we will win. The president used a prime time speech last night to suggest more americans will be sent to the war zone. Thats a big reversal from his position as a candidate. Mr. Trump insisted his support is not open ended. Major garrett is at the white house. Reporter for years donald trump told americans it was a waste of time but after months of discussion President Trump will not only stay in afghanistan but increase the u. S. Troop presence. There was talk but very few specifics and even fewer benchmarks. The American People are weary of war without victory. The president confided to a military audience and the nation that a complete withdrawal from afghanistan was a real option. My original instinct was to pull out and historically i like following my instincts. But all my life ive heard that decisions are much different when you sit behind the desk in the oval office. Reporter President Trump said he inherited a bad and very complex hand but the risks of abandoning afghanistan were too high. Terrorists who slaughter innocent people will find no glory in this life or the next. They are nothing but thugs and criminals and predators and thats right, losers. Reporter mr. President complained about terror cells and he fretted about pakistan and india. Pakistan gives safe haven to agents of chaos, violence and terror. The threat is worse because pakistan and india are two Nuclear Armed states. Reporter the president did not specify how many troops he will send to afghanistan. Advisors say the numbers could rise to 4,000, but with the fighting season expected to rise this fall their impact may not be seen until 2018. I will not say when we are going to attack, but attack we will. Mr. Trump walked a fine line between open ended commitment and a new deadline for withdrawal. We are not nation building again. We are killing terrorists. However, our commitment is not unlimited. And our support is not a blank check. Nato nations are expected to provide more troops and a bit more financing. The white house said repeatedly this new strategy will be judged on its results not held to a time line but asked to describe what quote, wink wouning would like, one Senior Advisor said we will know what progress looks like. The first combat troops were sent after the 9 11 attacks. The number now closer to 8,400 americans there. Charlie has reported extensively on americas longest war and this morning hes in kabul with the latest. Reporter good morning. When you speak to afghan field commanders as weve done over the summer, they need a lot more u. S. Forces. They need them in a hurry and they need them as close to the front lines as possible. In that regard the speech left a few unanswered questions. As far as the official reaction from kabul this morning, that came from the president who said in a statement, im grateful to President Trump and the American People for his affirmation of support for our efforts to achieve selfreliance. The time we spent with u. S. Marines, they are a long way from selfreliance. 40 of the country has fallen to the taliban. Theyre heavily dependent on u. S. Marines, many who fought for the territory theyre standing over, that very soil where so Many American forces lost their lives now under taliban control again. The taliban have weighed in too, saying they would continue their fight as long as a single american soldier remains on afghan soil. Thank you. Congressional republicans are applauding the new strategy for afghanistan. Chairman john mccain called the president s plan a big step in the right direction. And a tv town hall meeting paul ryan said last night he was pleased with the decision. I think i heard a new trump strategy or a doctrine so to speak. Principle real iechl is hism is described it. I think its important that we have a comprehensive doctrine that we apply. House minority leader said this plan raises in her words, serious questions. She called it an open ended commitment of american lives with no accountability to the American People. The Navy Announced that divers found remains in sealed compartments on a u. S. Destroyer that hit an oil tanker early yesterday. Theyve been searching for ten sailors missing since the collision with u. S. S. John mccain. Now the u. S. Navy is temporarily suspending all ship operations worldwide. Were tracking development from beijing. Good morning. Reporter good morning. So the navy is taking what its called an operational pause. What they want to do is give their ship commanders a chance to work with their crews on team work after several incidents in training. C have called into a gaping hole in the side of another u. S. Warship could be a sign of a bigger problem in the pacific. The u. S. S. John mccain suffered damage while it collided with a tanker in singapore. Navy officials have not considered a looss of steering. We need to get to the bottom of this, so lets get to it. In a video, the chief of Naval Operations called for all u. S. Navy ships worldwide to Halt Operations and review basic training. A more comprehensive review to ensure that we get at the contributing factors, the root causes of these incidents. Just two months ago another ship from the 7th fleet, the u. S. S. Fitzgerald collided with a merchant ship off the coast of jap japan. On friday the captain was relieved of his duties and several other sailors were punished, a sign that mistakes were made. It does show theres some kind of issue on the deck of whether or not there are people that are qualified, whether theyre certified and whether or not they are using all of the things at their disposal to make sure this doesnt happen again. There have now been four incidents involving ships from the p seventh fleet. A guided missile cruiser and another cruiser ran aground in tokyo bay. I think every commander will look at their specific units, evaluate the climate and make changes in order to make that unit better. China is now taking advantage of these incidents with these u. S. Navy ships. An editorial today said very bluntly that the u. S. Navy is becoming a dangerous obstacle in asian waters and posing a threat to and a half gags. Part of the reason china is saying this is because it opposes u. S. Navy ships through waters it claims as its own. More than 40 people were hurt overnight when a cteutde philad. It happened just after midnight. The local Transportation Authority said the high speed train slammed into an empty parked train. At least four of those injuries are serious and one passenger described the moment of impact. My face hit the wall, put a big hole in the wall and i went straight down, i blacked out. It was loud and it hurt, but service delays are expected this morning. The cause is under investigation. They voted to drape the statues of robert e. Lee in black fabric after chaos broke out at a City Council Meeting last night. The people screamed and chanted angry about how the city handled the rally ten days ago now. Police removed several people from that meeting. Counselors scrapped the rest of the agenda and agreed to hear 300 people speak. They later voted to cover the statues to honor the memory of heather heyer. Trumps speech is expected to draw thousands of protesters and supporters. Now, the president has been attedsiat odds with republican senators. Now the citys democratic presi delay the rally following the violence in charlottesville, virginia. Carter evans is out at the Convention Center in phoenix with the president is due to speak. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Vice president pence is also expected to attend this Campaign Style rally tonight. Now, arizona traditionally leans republican. Local polling puts support for the president , his Approval Rating at about 42 . That is higher than the National Average but there are going to be some protesters here tonight. They are already setting up here in the street. There are going to be at least six protests, the largest could draw about 3,000 people. I will assure you that we are well prepared. Phoenix police chief is reassuring the city that local Law Enforcement is ready for President Trumps downtown rally. But given the violence in charlottesville just ten days ago and current Political Tension here in phoenix, the citys mayor says this is not the right time for this large scale political event. I believe the true intention is to really inflame peoples passion to further divide the country and thats why i said the president should delay this trip to phoenix. A major concern says the president could use this rally to pardon the lawman awaiting sentencing of up to six months in jail after a federal judge found he broke the law when his office carried out traffic patrols that targeted immigrants. That would just put gasoline on that potential flame. That would be a really bad thing, not just for phoenix but for the entire united states. Among a number of arizona politicians currently at odds with the president including some in his own party. Its a shell of a bill right now. It was arizonas republican senator john mccain who provided the crucial no vote that doomed the trump administrations effort to repeal the Affordable Care act. If you just have, you know, erratic behavior unmoored from principle thats not a good combination. He called him weak on borders and crime and toxic while endorsing his opponent. There are going to be a lot of Trump Supporters here tonight. Weve already seen some of them here since 3 00 a. M. But before he comes here the president will be in yuma, arizona to visit customs there.

Daylight returning showed miles of traffic intersecting the eclipses past. Grid lock extended to this airport in oregon where more than 400 planes were reportedly waiting to take off.
