This Morning from CBS News, Sept. 20, 2016
Terror probe
Investigators in New York and New Jersey are trying to piece together alleged bomber Ahmad Khan Rahami’s path to violence. There’s new information about the bombs found on both sides of the Hudson River, and Rhami’s travels and activities are beginning to build a picture of the suspect who was arrested yesterday after a shootout.
Politics of terror
The bombings in New York and New Jersey have returned terrorism to the forefront of the presidential campaign discussion. Donald Trump says profiling is needed to keep terrorists out of the U.S., while Hillary Clinton says Trump’s language is inspiring ISIS and other terror groups.
Nominees on education
Continuing our series looking at the Republican and Democratic presidential nominees’ stances on the biggest issues facing the U.S., we dive into the policy proposals from the Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton campaigns on education in America, from preschool, all the way up.
Nominees’ foreign policy
With major issues from Britain’s “Brexit” to the Iran nuclear deal and Russian hackers in the headlines this fall, foreign policy is playing a major role in the 2016 presidential campaign. We look at the key policy proposals from Donald Trump and Hillary Clinton on the topic, which have some stark differences.
Blame game
Syria’s army says the cease-fire is over, and it has resumed its fierce bombing campaign on rebel-held parts of Aleppo. Russia says it’s “verifying information” about a deadly strike on an aid convoy that activists say was likely the work of Russia’s own military, or Syria’s. The U.S. is clinging to hopes the truce deal can be revived.
Bankers getaway?
No Wall Street bankers were held criminally accountable for their role in the 2008 financial crisis. Now experts fear Well Fargo leaders could escape punishment after the bank was caught boosting sales by opening millions of sham accounts for unsuspecting customers. Is the government letting Wells off easy?
Inside Pulse
Pulse nightclub shooting survivor Chriss West describes those who regularly partied at the club as “a family.” That family changed forever early on June 12, with the loss of 49 lives. West tells CBS’ Orlando affiliate about the evening that started with love, fun and friendship, but turned to mayhem.
Bono
U2 is marking its 40th year in the music business. Lead singer Bono is also well-known for his philanthropic work around the world. He’s in New York this week for the United Nations General Assembly, and tells Charlie Rose about his activism, music and his view on U.S. politics.
