Hurricane Francine latest, Alaska Airlines pilot on midair incident, more | The Daily Report

23 years since terrorists unleashed the most concentrated burst of loss heartache bravery and resilience in American history it's also a reminder that American leaders particularly a president can face in a Flash unimaginable strain which embeds them in the tracks of History where day after day they must make life and death decisions which will affect Generations the candidates fying to put on that burden met for a debate last night one of the ways voters can see if the person they're hiring for that kind of pressure filled day job has the temperament to handle it Major Garrett will give us his thoughts on the night's events we'll also evaluate new inflation data price increases are cooling but what does that mean plus an interview with one of the Alaska Airlines pilots who was flying when the door plug blew we'll also have an update on fires and floods and so help us a report from Springfield Ohio on a story you might rightfully think is not worth your attention or ours in a world of such chall but that might be exactly why it's worth our time we'll try to explain the daily report starts in a [Music] moment hello thank you for joining us we begin our report here in New York City As Americans came together as we do every year on this day to remember and honor the lives lost on on September 11th 2001 23 years ago 2,977 people were killed in the deadliest attack on us soil at least 2,000 more have died in the year since from illnesses resulting from that day many of them The Rescuers the men and women of the police force and fire brigades who rushed into the collapsing buildings memorials were held at the three sites where the planes used in the attack crashed the Pentagon in Washington a field in Shanksville Pennsylvania and the former site of the World Trade Center in downtown Manhattan that is where dozens of politicians gathered Wednesday morning including former president Donald Trump and vice president kamla Harris who met face to face for a second time in his many days their handshake Wednesday came with thanks and even Trump patting the vice president's hand a more gracious tone than the night before as the two shook hands before an hour and a half long debate filled with acrimony and arguments over policy understand what it would mean if Donald Trump were back in the white house with no guard rails because certainly we know now the court won't stop him we know JD Vance is not going to stop him I probably took a bullet to the head because of the things that they say about me they talk about democracy I'm a threat to democracy they're the threat to democracy I'd invite you to know that Donald Trump actually has no plan for you because he is more interested in defending himself than he is in looking out for you she doesn't have a plan she copied Biden's plan and it's like four sentences like Run Spot Run CBS News Chief Washington correspondent Major Garrett joins me now major you've had 24 hours to digest all that was said or not said during the debate so where are you now 24 hours later John you and I love this work and one of the things that we've learned covering presidential debat is there is something humbling about what we regard and circle on our transcripts of moments we thought were super vital and we go out and talk to voters they have something else completely different circled in their minds of what stuck out to them what resonates with them so I'm always cautious about this process but some things were obvious there is this Fantastical story that you're going to deal with later in the show about Springfield Ohio and whether Haitian immigrants are eating pets they are not but somehow that found its way on the debate stage it didn't need to be there and it undermine something that Trump has a legitimate policy difference and something that voters really care about immigration much of that momentum to the degree that it existed now lost because of this Fantastical story what I heard today from many Republicans was a sense of many lost opportunities for the former president what I heard from Democrats was kamla Harris did the thing that she most needed to do keep the momentum going and keep the sense that she is not just a candidate about Joy but a genuine alternative who know knows what the presidency looks like and can stand on stage with its most recent occupant that is a political opponent of hers that was crucial for Democrats and their levels of expectations going in they felt very satisfied that they were met at least to their standards as you so perfectly put it the perspective is key in understanding how this shakes out with actual humans who are going to do the voting but with that in mind nevertheless how do these performances make the campaign easier or harder for the two candidates going forward in say the next couple of weeks or so so C these debates are external and internal events they're external events for the voters watching them and judging them and making decisions about them we'll find out in a week whether or not there's a bump for either candidate about that they're also internal events what do they make the candidate feel like afterwards what do they make the Inner Circle feel like what do they make the volume of supporters meeting volunteers and others people who write checks people who donate and people were part of the larger structure Democrats last night felt very good about their larger structural momentum after the debate Republicans less so they felt that they were going to need at least 24 to 48 hours to sort of dig back out of this trench created by the underperformance of former president Trump not an impossible task it's just one that they'd rather not have to devote time and energy to Democrats have no such concerns right okay so now uh the other big news of the evening Taylor Swift now as you and I know endorsements don't often mean much but Taylor Swift has Galactic Fame uh and this comes at a distinct moment after this debate so if it matters well what do you what's your take does it matter might it matter it might matter in this sense and it's a very real very practical sense John earlier in other campaign Cycles Taylor Swift has said register to vote because I'm asking you to I think it's important for you to participate and in certain places registration numbers Rose noticeably right after that appeal from Taylor Swift newly registered voters John participate on a probabilistic scale at 85% in the next most recent election that is to say the election that they are registering to participate in if there's a boost in participation it will be driven by registration and if it's driven by Taylor Swift that will matter perfect Major Garrett from Wasing thanks as always major sure after rapidly strengthening over the Gulf of Mexico hurricane Francine has made landfall in Louisiana as a category 2 storm the hurricane is bearing down near New Orleans with heavy rain and winds up to 100 miles an hour both Louisiana and Mississippi Governors have declared states of emergency in preparation for the weather system CBS News corresponded Janet Shaman joins us from Gulfport Mississippi uh Janet what are you seeing I want to give you a look John this thing came ashore in Louisiana but that doesn't mean we're not getting pelted here in gulport Mississippi angry Seas a lot of wind right now we're awaiting the storm surge and conditions are going to continue like this for quite a bit of time it was a category 1 until just about 15 or 20 minutes before it made landfall and it came on Shore as it two and we're now just hoping that people in this community and others like it have taken the necessary precautions John and so Janet what are the big threats in you mentioned some of them but what are the big threats now in the coming days now that this has made landfall yeah right right offshore here where people are going to want to get back in the water uh strong rip tides for the next couple of days not just here but along the Gulf Coast uh we've got an elevated tornado wrist right the ton level is up there and that's that's for the next six or eight hours and the water is already it's like quicksand here on the beach the water's you know coming up quite a bit so that's that's what it is right people here landfall it made landfall and they want to get out again but this is really the most dangerous time John and are folks prepared what's been happening in advance of all of this so Gul Park let me tell you about Gulfport like this is where I was uh 19 years ago for Hurricane Katrina they they really took a hard hit here so Mississippi and Louisiana I mean they're used to these storms but I would say just in terms of being in this community the past 24 hours uh they're ready people take things seriously but also this community has been rebuilt to a higher standard so I think you know everything's been shut down right except for emergency services the businesses are closed uh schools uh courts everything like that and people are just waiting it out at this point joh and Janet is this a situation where official what are what are officials saying are they saying get out of Dodge or are they saying hunker down stay inside what's the level of volume there for the most part this is a hunker down situation right I want to show you there's a few cars on the road I think most of them are reporters uh like ourself but we're not seeing anybody out there are no mandatory evacuations here but there were some in low-lying areas further west but we know we know each time there are mandatory evacuations people stay anyway so we're not going to hear anything about that unless there's a Calamity and we'll know that tonight overnight the good news on this John is that this is a very fast moving storm right now it is going to be a tropical depression by tomorrow it's going to be out of here and pushing us Way North into places like Tennessee Janet Shaman thank you so much Janet 8 months ago the door plug blew off of an Alaska Airlines 737 max9 jetliner in the middle of a flight the incident sparked investigations into Boeing the planes manufacturer CBS News senior Transportation correspondent Chris Van Cleave spoke with one of the pilots aboard that flight and I opened the flight deck door and I saw calm quiet hundreds of eyes staring right back at me and I looked at my flight attendants and I said are you okay and in that response I heard whole four five empty seats and injuries and are you thinking when they said empty seats that you'd lost people yes yes she can fly a plane and tell a story CBS News senior Transportation correspondent Chris Van Cleave joins us now uh Chris this pilot did safely land that plane with all 171 passengers and six crew members on board how how does she react to being called a hero well as you wouldn't as you won't be surprised John uh she deflected that a little bit um but that's certainly been the conversation you know there were two pilots in that cockpit uh the the captain and the first officer here that were unaware that there was a hole in the airplane they knew the plane had depressurized and that in and of itself was very disrupting they they described it as as an explosion in her ears when the when the depressurization happened but they didn't know there was a hole until after they were on the ground uh what they did know was there was a problem and they needed to get the the plane down quickly here's how she responded to that very question people are going to call you and the captain Heroes how do you feel about that you're right my captain is a hero same with the flight attendants same with all the Personnel that was there to support us that day and that should be celebrated every and that's really the important thing here John is everybody got off that airplane you know it was an almost full airplane too the fact that uh there was no one seated right next to where that panel blew out uh remains a miraculous event really indeed um any other details that she told you about that um harrowing moment you know what what stands out to her in and in telling the story just how loud it was in the cockpit you know they they felt that in their ears there was this loud bang and then uh she just described a really incredibly noisy cockpit they have oxygen masks on she's having trouble hearing the captain they can't really communicate with the flight attendants so in in many ways they were Flying Blind on as to what was happening behind them on the airplane and really just focused on Landing Shela said their oxygen Mass started to fog up right as they were lining the plane up to land it was certainly a harrowing experience wow well that's what all that training goes into uh preparing them for remind us what what have what investigators have found looking into what have they found looking into this incident yeah so the national Transportation safety board investigation is ongoing but we know uh so far in their investigation they are really focused on the manufacturing process around this airplane because it appears that the plane left the factory without the four bolts that hold that door panel in place and ultimately uh as the ntsp is trying to sort out exactly why that happened it really does appear that this was a manufacturing mistake that put a a nearly brand new airplane in a situation where a panel literally flew off the plane as it was climbing out of Portland on a cold January night Chris Van CLE with a fascinating interview thank you so much Chris sure thing coming up Donald Trump told a variety of lies in Tuesday night's debate but one in particular is spotlighting a small town in the midwest we'll speak to our correspondent in Springfield Ohio about how the community is reacting to the spotlight plus US inflation is on a downward Trend ahead we'll have more analysis on the

discriminated against do you think there are people living in institutions in Illinois that don't need to be living there yeah because they're proving it as soon as they get [Music] out there are many debunked Rumors in the world most don't require our attention in fact one of the challenges of our time is to keep our attention from being hijacked by the diversionary and frivolous but Donald Trump and JD Vance in an effort to show the Damage Done by LAX Biden Harris policies have promoted a debunk rumor that Haitian migrants in Springfield Ohio are abducting and eating people's pets City officials say there's quote no credible reports or specific claims of pets being harmed injured or abused by individuals within the Immigrant Community when a debunk rumor is repeated it becomes a lie when it is spread on a large stage like the debate stage where Trump mentioned mentioned it last night it becomes a lie that aims white hot attention on small communities Lilia Luciano is in that small community and reports on what it's like to be collateral damage in a misinformation campaign Lilia tell us more about the community of Springfield hey John uh it's hard to even address such a false issue but here's what I've learned from people who I've talked to throughout the day today this is one of those belt communities that had a significant uh amount of of loss of productivity of jobs of population uh that was towards you know the end of the 20th century and uh now in the 21st century there has been some industry that has recovered I've heard that there have been you know Amazon plants and other industries that have tried to flourish and during the pandemic a lot of people this is from recruiters I talked to today were uh what the recruiters said and part and it's very loud from the cars around uh around us one of the recruiters was telling me is they had a really hard time filling uh the jobs that were available after some of these industries flourished when that happened W started spreading among some of the Haitian refugees and Asylum Seekers uh and immigrants in this community who were already here who were telling their peers and their family members at a time when hati was enduring such a horrible collapse of its democracy of its government uh and and facing just unparalleled violence at that time people were fleeing Haiti out of necessity and when they arrived in the United States many of them most of them now with work permits because they have temporary protected status they were hearing from family from friends that there were opportunities job opportunities in this town of Springfield as the community started growing locals started worrying that resources may be scares that maybe uh the local organizations that were providing food assistance and helping immigrants navigate the job opportunities that were available would run out of those so there was tension in this community and then last year there was one incident where there was one Haitian immigrant uh who were was driving without a license and hit a school bus one 11 year-old boy tragically died and that's when tension hit its peak after that it seems that there has been a lot of misinformation spread and all also a lot of concerns about safety I talked to people who Aid migrants and people who employed migrants and also to Haitian immigrants who say sometimes you know there's concern because of the language Gap uh that is being bridged by organizations and settlement a resettlement agencies here has created a problem in terms of communication in job training but there are many hands and many people in this community who are trying to bridge that Gap uh to connect with the local concerns and also to connect the uh Workforce that has emerged in this community from uh Haitians who have income with those job opportunities while not disregarding the concerns of the community of course then you have misinformation spreading online and things that you know frankly are difficult to platform given that local officials have said this is not a real thing so very briefly before I lose you Lilia um what are what are the residents saying about this specific lie that's being spread I talked to you know I talked to some locals and they said look it's it's hateful rhetoric uh I talked to a business owner who is a is a real EST estate broker now used to be a civil engineer in Haiti and he said look that's not going to break us we're hardworking we're trying to help this community flourish we you know work multiple jobs even multiple careers and I understand that this is the kind of thing that's being said in campaigns and it'll pass and we not let it divide the community further Lilia Luciano in Springfield Ohio thank you so much thank [Music] you the Federal Reserve is aiming for 2% inflation to ensure price stability and long-term economic prosperity in August the Consumer Price Index grew at an annual rate of 2 and a half% inflation that's slightly above the target but down from 2.9% in July and Below economists expectations since this time last year gasoline prices have fallen by nearly 12% the Energy Information Administration says the average of a price uh average price of a regular gallon of gas in August was $3.39 triaa reports the current price is even lower at $3.25 short-term inflation the change in prices over a month was up. 2% last month in part due to high food and housing costs a sign that the FED might interpret as evidence of lingering inflationary pressures which might make an expected rate cut smaller than expected for more on this I want to bring in Martin beerx he is a senior editor and chief markets correspondent for the financial news site the street Martin it's good to be with you again the Federal Reserve is prepared according to its chair uh to begin cutting interest rates next week as the US approaches this 2% goal how do you think they read these numbers it's interesting isn't it John because we're seeing some stickiness in the various measurements that the FED tries to use to sort of read the path of of price pressures going into the timate and Beyond um you talk about that headline rate to 2.5% it is getting close to the fed's Target but when we start to strip away some of the more volatile components and we look at core underlying prices they're still stubbornly high we're seeing them in shelter um we're seeing them in things like insurance and daycare and all sorts of other expenses that can't really be avoided so I think to some degree the FED is going to be a little bit frustrated by that and as a result they're probably likely to take that path of interest rate cuts a lot more patiently now that might test the patients of Wall Street um because they've been looking for movement from the FED for a number of months now they will get it next week in Washington they just won't get as much and they may have to wait longer for the ultimate destination so I help people understand that the market is looking at these numbers and saying huh the FED seeing the stickiness inflation might just tweak rates down a quarter percent rather than 50% is that the thinking and and if that's the thinking what are the what does the market then think will happen to economic activity well that's precisely right John I think at the moment you have sort of a a a split discussion you have those who would like to see the FED move faster maybe even cut interest rates by about a half a percentage point in order to get in front of what people think will be economic weakness going forward there are other people who say If the Fed were to make that decision they might be seeing things on the economic Horizon that we are not and that could induce some lack of confidence that's exactly what the market doesn't need at this point because there's so much uncertainty out there already so it is a bit of a knife edge but I think you've placed it really well in the sense that Wall Street is looking for support from the FED it's going to get it it just may take a little bit longer what else are you watching Martin or or should anybody be watching in terms of whether the FED is able to achieve the so-called soft landing outside of inflation what else might be worth keeping an eye on well chairman Jerome pal made a keynote address at the annual Retreat that they have in Jackson Hall Wyoming sounds like quite a nice Gathering I must say and they do it every year and it's a chance for them to be a little bit wonkish in terms of policy but his keynote addresses something we all pay very much attention to and he talked about the fact that the fed's twin mandate one of them is about price stability but the other is about full employment is coming into better balance so the FED is looking at the job market with the lot more clarity than maybe it did in the past and as a result Wall Street is very much focused on job market activity particularly things like weekly unemployment claims um sentiment indicators from the Federation for independent businesses and many others if we see a Slowdown in the job market and there was evidence of that in the August numbers then the FED will be minded to move perhaps a bit more quickly because not only will that mean slower inflation going forward unfortunately it could mean a cooling broader economy into the Autumn months but John it has to be said the economy is holding up incredibly well the last assessment from the Atlanta fed said the economy is ticking over at a two and a half% clip that is really firm growth heading into the Autumn much higher than people would have imagined and nowhere near recessionary territory at this point right and a long way off from the dire days post pandemic when there was recession talk all over the place Martin backer with the street thank you so much Martin thank you John Secretary of State Anthony blinkin is announcing new

Trump is currently set to be the only one between the two however the Harris campaign is calling for another matchup in October Trump says he's less inclined to debate Harris a second time Americans across the country have had mixed reactions to Tuesday night's presidential debate Nicole Killian had the opportunity to watch the debate with some voters in the Battleground state of Pennsylvania the here is some of their reactions tell me who you believe won this debate tonight we'll start with You Bridget definitely kamla Harris I would say KLA Harris Donald Trump trump KLA Harris how would you compare this debate to the last debate with President Biden both candidates were present last debate Trump was President Biden wasn't what were your first impressions well what I said at the one of the things I was really looking for I was hopeful that we would get the truth from both sides I so sorely disappointed I was seeing how kamla herois was trying to do what Biden did in 2020 and try and play herself as a moderate but I see I see through that facade she's she's not a moderate she's a progressive you know let's talk about some of the issues that were raised this evening starting with the economy right now they did not discuss the economy enough for me right now I know a lot of families are living paycheck to paycheck which I think is so unfortunate um I do think that either plan by either candidate I just want to see the economy get better what about the exchange on Reproductive Rights how did you feel about that Trump has been uh going over the top talking about how they're aborting babies at 9 months or having the baby Bard and then executed I might be a little too too far uh construted but at the end of the day um I believe that the choice should be available I agree 100% I think that KLA stood her ground on her position I think that she's always been more pro-choice I want to get back to immigration I know you raised that as a key issue do you feel that the former president and the vice president for that matter did enough to address the issue overall were your questions and we have seen what Biden and Harris have done to this country by not securing the Border I've seen it firsthand it so I I I agree with that I mean the Border should be tightly controlled and monitored I agree that we need strong border controls um I don't believe that we can uh Deport everybody in the country but did it surprise any of view that this conspiracy theory about Haitian migrants and cats came up during this part of the debate and what was your reaction to that yes even Donald Trump I did not think was going to go there how could he possibly bring that up it's just beyond belief and when he mentioned that I I always initially had that same Rel uh reaction I was like what was he doing what do you make of the fact that the former president four years later still does not accept the results of the 2020 election if he loses this election he will not concede this election and more and more people sign on with this and it just fragments the country more and more and more did this debate change your mind in any way uh kind of did make me sway a little bit toward Kamala Harris quick show of hand how many of you feel that there should be another debate all of you Secretary of State Anthony blinkin and his British counterpart traveled to Ukraine's capital city of keev Wednesday the visit comes as Ukrainian officials seek permission to strike deep inside Russian territory using americanmade weapons the United States has so far resisted those requests out of concern it could escalate the conflict but the US continues to support Ukraine financially with blink announcing $700 million of infrastructure and humanitarian assistance we remain fully committed to Ukraine's Victory to not only ensuring that Ukraine can defend itself today but can stand on its own feet strongly militarily economically democratically for many many days ahead the bottom line is this we want Ukraine to win Seth Jones joins us now he's a senior vice president and director of the International Security program at the center for strategic and International Studies Seth I want to grab on to what blinkin said there at the end we want Ukraine to win Donald Trump in the debate notably would not say when pressed whether he wanted Ukraine to win what does that language mean for Blinn to say it and then if a president did not say it or an Administration did not say it well look I I think uh it has a great deal of impact on what an Administration is going to be willing to provide to Ukraine for um lincol to say that he wants Ukraine to win means that he will continue with peace negotiations uh and until any kind of a ceasefire or settlement is established to provide weapons to Ukraine uh that's unclear with the Trump Administration if he were to come into office he talks about a peace settlement but that's going to be very difficult to do the two sides are are really far apart right now on this question of whether the US should allow Ukraine to strike into deeper inside Russia with us Munitions what um what's the thinking on the US point there and and might the US find a way to accommodate the needs of the Ukrainian officials well I think there's no doubt at this point that uh that us officials should come around to the Ukrainian request and to use not just us but also British and other European weapons for strikes into Russian territory for several reasons one is uh that they're actually helpful in uh degrading Russia's capability to wage war uh the Russia has moved a lot of its Logistics uh outside of the range of a number of weapon systems but attachs for example can hit them a second is the Russians are using Iranian Chinese and North Korean weapons in Ukraine so we've already pass that Rubicon and then the third issue just briefly is at every stage of this war there's been concern about escalation what are the Russians going to do if we take these kinds of steps and I think it's clear that uh that Putin has has called our Bluff every time he's not he's not he's not going to escalate he can't really escalate at this point so I think concerns and risks are are actually relatively low help me understand that why can't I'm always fascinated what restrains him why can't can't he escalate well I think at this point um as we saw after uh Ukrainian forces took areas of K oblast and they still hold uh a number of areas in Russian territory the Russian response was in part to conduct a range of cruise missile ballistic missile and drone attacks across Ukraine in multiple oblasts multiple areas of Ukraine well they've been doing that since the War Began uh they have done the Russians have done basically everything within their means except for using nuclear weapons in Ukraine so I mean I think they've gone up to the top of that escalatory ladder in my view and finally Seth during the presidential debate is you you mentioned Donald Trump says that he could have a deal right away in reality what is this nature or state of kind of Peace negotiations I mean they don't really exist do they but give us a sense of of where things stand on the willingness to even have peace talks well I think both sides have been willing to lay out conditions the problem is they're really far apart right now what the Russians are asking for for Ukraine is essentially to get rid of most of its Conventional Weapons uh and after being invaded in February of 2022 what Ukrainian president in their right mind would not defend him or herself against a foreign aggressor uh there are you know the ukrainians want back the territory that the Russians have seized so it would be very difficult domestically for someone like president zinski to hand over to Russia territory that Russia has seized by force and that means that what both sides are asking for right now we just they're just far apart Seth Jones with the center for strategic and international studies thank you so much thank you as always Israel said Wednesday it struck 30 Hezbollah targets overnight in parts of Southern Lebanon air strikes come one day after the IDF said it killed a senior Hezbollah commander in the same region the Iranian backed group later confirmed the official's death meanwhile with the war in Gaza in its 11th month Palestinian officials say an Israeli air strike hit a un School Sheltering displaced families CBS News senior foreign correspondent Elizabeth Palmer has more from Tel Aviv once again there were Israeli air strikes in Gaza today as the military pursues its mission to eradicate Hamas missiles hit the aluni boys school it's a un school it's in nerat refugee camp and since the start of the war it's been
