Seconds. T seems thatth nor korea, this situation is getting pretty grave. Theyre deliberating a very significant strategy. A major conflict with north korea is possible. Do you think its likely that the u. S. Is headedor f a military confrontation . All scenarios are on the table, so it really is all up to north korea.

Announcer this mornings eye opener presented by toyota. Lets go places. Welcome to cbs this morning. President trump is raising the possibility of a military confrontation with north korea. The president says conflict with the north is possible over its nuclear and Missile Programs, though, he prefers a diplomatic solution. The warning came during a reuters interview yesterday, two days before mr. Trumps 100th day in office. Well, theres a chance that we could end up having a major major conflict with north korea. Newly released video appears to show a live drill in north korea. They fired artillery rounds from a beach. D military options against north korea. Hes at the pentagon. David, good morning. Good morning. Theres no doubt the u. S. Would win what the president calls a major major conflict with north korea, but the loss of life and destruction of property would be horrendous on both sides. This morning north korean state run television aired video of this weeks massive live fire exercise. It shows multiple rocket launchers and artillery firing as the countrys leader kim jongun and his officers cheer them on. It happened in the same week an American Nuclear powered submarine armed with cruise missiles pulled into a south korean port. A b 52 bomber patrolled over the Korean Peninsula and the Aircraft Carrier vinson came within striking range of pyongyang. North korea put out a would sink the carrier but the fact is they would be unable to complete the devastating attack. Experts like senator jack reed of the Armed ServicesCommittee Said there are no good military options for destroying north Koreas Nuclear options. There are military options but they are risky. Nobody knows that better than admiral harris who has the power to destroy north korea but not before millions could unleash a barrage on the south korean capital. 25 Million People in a relatively small area within artillery range of the dmz. U. S. Has patriot antimissile batteries in south korea, and in the coming days, a second Defense System called thaad would become operational but those are designed to shoot down guided missiles like they cannot defend against an oldfashioned artillery rocket. Isnt it incredible . It is, sir. And thaad is not designed to counter those kinds of basic weapons. And what is designed to do that . Anything . We do not have those kinds of weapons that can counter those roths once theyre launched. It would seem like this is a standoff in which each side has the capability to inflict unacceptable damage on the other, but admiral harris said this is the worst crisis hes seen, and in a crisis, all it takes to start a war is for one side to miscalculate. Gayle . All right. Thank you very much, david. President trump says that he wants south korea to pay for the controversial thaad missile system. Some oppose that. Equipment youve ever seen. Shoots missiles right out of the sky. We want to protect them, i want to protect them. Were going to protect them. But they should pay for that. President trump says he wants to renegotiate a trade deal. In response they say they have no plans to do that or pay for thaad. Today is President Trumps 99th day in office and his president ial goals are still in limbo. House leaders put off a vote on the newest plan to appeal obamacare. Congress will vote today on a oneweek budget extension to keep the government from shutting down. Tomorrow Margaret Brennan is at the white house. Margaret, good morning. Good morning. Senate democrats are pushing that shortterm funding deal to the brink, and while President Trump appears to be narrowly avoiding a Government Shutdown until that budget extension is passed, the federal government is still set to run out of money at midnight. Reporter during these 100 days. On his plan he says theyll shut down government. Another attempt came up short, even as republicans worked all day and into the night to line up votes. They are in a lose lose lose situation. House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi dared the republicans to shut down the government, placing a highstakes bet meant to discourage them from voting on health care. The 11th hour vote to suspend it past midnight paid off. I think were making very good progress. Before the latest blork mag nuv, house leader paul ryan said momentum behind the Health Care Bill picked up for most republicans. We feel like were on the right track. But republicans decided forcing the vote wasnt worth the risk. Majority leader Kevin Mccarthy said the house will vote today on a oneweek extension of government funding. Earlier this week they used the threat of a shutdown to win two other concessions, dropping the demand for border wall funding and agreeing to pay Health Care Subsidies for low income americans. The democrats have come in at the last minute and thrown a lot of monkey rehn. S in to get this thing done despite President Trumps efforts to show good faith to keep this going. If congress does sign off on this shortterm deal, it gives them just one week, gayle, to settle some of the more complicated issues. Thank you very much. The pentagon has joined the list. Retired general michael flen was paid about 34,000 for a speech in moscow nearly 18 months ago. Newly released documents show he got an official letter earlier saying he could not receive foreign fees without permission. The White House Press secretary says this has nothing to do with the Trump Administration. All of that clearance was made during the Obama Administration and apparently with knowledge of the trip that he took. So thats how the process works, and i welcome the department of defenses i. G. s review. Congressman Elijah Cummins says there is no evidence that flynn told the pentagon that the russians paid him. With us now is United States attorney general jeff sessions. Welcome. Good morning. I know you excused yourself and recused yourself from some of the things going on in the campaign. But having said that, did any of this information come to the campaign or during the campaign . Im not aware of that. Im recusedro and anything thats necessary to be donewill be done, but we in the didnt of justice dont confirm or deny the existence of investigations. With regard to mr. Flynn, is this kind of thing when youre the nations chief legal officer a violation of the law . I dont know about it to comment and i think it would be inappropriate for me to comment on it. What i would say is we have great cabinet members. We even got people doing super jobs. Like i was at the border with general kelly, Homeland Security last week. We receive a 77 reduction h the number of illegal entries since december at the border. Thats a dramatic thing. Its exciting to see that happen. Let me ask you this. I know hindsight is 20 20, but do you think the Trump Administration could have done a better job in vetting mr. Flynn that. These things are not easy to discover. Im not sure if its inpropriety or not. I dont have e job of putting together fabulous people in the cabinet. It would be a mistake to reveal he had received this payment. I just dont know enough to comment. I dont think its appropriate enough for me to talk about it. Got it. Lets talk immigration. You talked a 27 drop in illegal crossings. Why do you need a border wall . Were on the verge of creating what the American People have wanted for 30, 40 years which is a lawle system of immigration. We admit 1. 1 million each year to lawful permanent residence in the United States the right way. We need to end the illegality. Youve got a republican congress. This is so rare. And they wont even include it and not one republican supports a border wall. Thats in your own party. Yeah. Well get funding for the wall. Its important to do so. I would just say this year we could use some money this year, but its not critical because this year sends september 30th. What you need is next year and move forward. Do you get any funding from mexico as the president promised . There are a lot of ways we can fund the wall through, in effect, on charges, particularly those ending unlawfully. Youve got a problem. The state has a problem. You dont have enough people to do the job. Go ahead. We do have a hard time getting people confirmed. Ive gotten 12 confirmed by the senate. Only one yesterday took office. My fabulous deputy. Youve nominated somebody for all of those jobs. Virtually. Virtual lil. A fwad number. Im not sure were over half. Why are you having a problem nominating people . Its not a problem. You have to get fbi backgrounds before you nominate them. If you dont do the proper vettinhe not doing proper vetting before nominating. Good backgrounds are important. Let me ask you. Theres a lot in the news about Fox News Channel and sexual harassme harassment. We know that the Justice Department is inspecting and the u. S. Postal service also look into that. What is that investigation about . I cannot confirm or deny the existence of any investigation. Those matters if they are current will occur on their own, but we in the department dont talk about any investigations. And youre the chief legal officer. When the president criticizes the ninth circuit in significant ways, is that a good idea . Is it appropriate for the president to consider i mean to criticize the 9th circuit . Theyre not above being talked about. Is it right for president to do that . Its right for the president as hes done historically over the centuries to express opinions about judicial opinions. Th appointment. Their pay cant be cut and their decisions can be commented on. And the one that he criticized, i think, was wrong. But his new Supreme Court justice had some reservations to the president speaking on issues like this and he expressed it. I dont see that. I see one nominee recently said we weve got a lifetime appointment. Nothing wrong with people commenting about their opinions and thats what i feel. Look. The judges in this country are so important. I respect them. Ive practiced before them for many years. I have the highest regard for them. The greatest threat to tin pen dense of the judiciary is if judges become more political. People cease to believe theyre deciding opinions based on law and the fact. Is that what you believe . Im worried about it. I do not i believe the executive order the president issues was yep. I was talking about the travel matter, but thats the one before the ninth circuit. The question is the order itself improper . Does it in anyway improperly discriminate . What do you as an american want to do about the ninth circuit . I think some of the judges in the ninth circuit have gone a bit too far in practicing the law as it is written and advancing an agenda they may have personally. The ninth circuit has been criticized for that tendency more than any other circuit. What should be donesome. The main thing is appoint judges and ninth circuit that will be responsible and more restrained in their actions, but youre not prohibited from saying i disagree with what youre doing or else youve created a superior branch of government. We have three. Reince priebus said the nine ukt circuit is going bananas. Is that a legal term . Its not a legal term. Mr. Attorney general, always good to have you here. Thank you. Hope you come back. Thank you so much. Well bring you a special edition of cbs this morning live on monday morning from the white house. John dickerson will interview donald trump on face the nation. A Law Enforcement agency has joined the probe into the Business Practices of the fox cable news channel. Theni also involved. Jericka duncan is outside fox news headquarters in new york. Good morning. Whats the latestsome. Good morning. A investigation con girls to cbs news that inspectors with the u. S. Postal service are involve and n the Justice Department probe into fox news. It has to do with Money Matters at the network while the questions into the investigation came to light two months ago. The network in the meantime has been lashed by a series of conductrelated lawsuits. 11 current and former employees filed a Class Action Lawsuit last month claiming executives fostered a, quote, severe culture of raucous harassment going back for year. Fox news has denied the charges and vows to vigorously defend sean hannity tweeted about the turmoil inside the company referencing an article saying bill shine was on the chopping block. Hannity wrote about it and said shine if he were removed would, quote, thats the total end of the fnc as we know it, done. He continued by saying somebody high up and inside the fnc is trying to get an innocent person fired. Now, we reached out to fox news for comment on the expanding federal investigation.
