Senate Democrats plan to slow down work in the upper chamber in an effort aimed at drawing attention to Republicans’ secret negotiations to craft legislation to repeal and replace Obamacare. A senior aide told CBS News’ Steven Portnoy that Democrats will begin a series of parliamentary moves at 4 p.m. ET Monday in an effort to slow the Senate agenda. Democrats plan to object to all requests for unanimous consent and they plan to make their own consent requests to move the health care negotiations into committee where the conversation can take place publicly. Democrats intend to hold the floor until late into the evening Monday, making a series of speeches condemning the closed-door GOP talks. “Republicans are drafting this bill in secret because they’re ashamed of it, plain and simple,” said Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-New York, said through an aide, calling the actions tonight “merely the first steps we’re prepared to take in order to shine a light on this shameful Trumpcare bill.” “If Republicans won’t relent and debate their health care bill in the open for the American people to see, then they shouldn’t expect business as usual in the Senate,” Schumer added. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Kentucky, has said he’d like a vote on health care by Congress’s July 4 recess, but Senate Republicans have yet to release language. On Monday, Schumer, 토토...

Ashton Kutcher is a modern-day Renaissance Man, with his movie, television and social media ventures, but this Monday, all eyes will be on him as he makes his debut on the hit sitcom “Two and a Half Men.” “Early Show” co-anchor Chris Wragge caught up with Kutcher to talk about the season premiere — and the pressure. Pictures: Fall TV on CBS So what does it feel like to be the new man on “Two and a Half Men”? “I feel like the luckiest guy in the world,” Kutcher said. And what was it that was so appealing to you about getting back into television? “I just offhandedly mentioned to a friend (that), if they offer me that job, I’d take it,” Kutcher said. “It’s always sort of nice to jump on something that’s already moving and successful and people already have an appetite for. It just seemed like the best job in the world” Perhaps too good, Wragge remarked, for its previous occupant, Charlie Sheen. His eight-season run as hard-living Charlie Harper came to an end after a series of now-infamous feuds and rants. But Kutcher is quick to say he’s not trying to fill Sheen’s shoes. “Here’s the thing,” Kutcher said. “Charlie was incredible on the show and I can’t, there’s no way I’m going to replace Charlie Sheen. I’m not playing his character. But it’s the...

Updated at 1:11 p.m. ET (AP) BEIRUT – Regime airstrikes hit a gas station in northern Syria Thursday, setting off a fiery explosion that killed at least 30 people and wounded dozens, opposition activists said. Amateur video showed thick black smoke engulfing the scene. Earlier Thursday, a Syrian military helicopter crashed near the capital of Damascus, and Syria’s Information Ministry said the helicopter went down after accidentally clipping the tail of a Syrian passenger plane with 200 people on board. The larger aircraft landed safely at Damascus International Airport and no one was hurt, the Information Ministry said. The airstrikes and the close call in the sky underscored the growing turmoil and violence in Syria. The country is embroiled in a civil war between forces fighting for President Bashar Assad and those trying to topple him. More than 23,000 people have been killed in the conflict, according to activists. In recent weeks, Assad’s regime has stepped up airstrikes in northern Syria in an attempt to dislodge rebels from areas they control there. Activists said Thursday’s airstrike hit near the town of Ain Issa, about 25 miles from the Turkish border. A day earlier, rebel fighters had seized control of a border crossing north of the town. Rami Abdul-Rahman of the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, said witnesses counted at least 30 bodies and said dozens of people were...
