  We'll start in Iowa,
• 0:35
  where former President Donald Trump kicked off the 2024 campaign
• 0:38
  with a landslide victory in the caucuses.
• 0:42
  He won 51% of the vote.

  Donald Trump: I just want to thank you all.
• 0:46
  This is a very special night, and…
• 0:47
  Person in crowd: We love you!
• 0:48
  Trump: … this is the first because the big night
• 0:52
  is going to be in November when we take back our country,
• 0:56
  [CHEERING AND APPLAUSE]
• 0:56
  and truly, we do make our country great again.
• 0:59
  Thank you very much, everybody. Great honor. Thank you very much.

  Thank you.

  Resnick, Narrating: Ron DeSantis and Nikki Haley were far behind him,
• 1:08
  getting 21% and 19% of the vote, respectively.
• 1:11
  Both did try to frame the loss as a win.
• 1:15
  [START C-SPAN ARCHIVAL CLIP]
• 1:15
  Ron DeSantis: Because of your support,
• 1:17
  in spite of all of that that they threw at us,
• 1:19
  everyone against us, we've got our ticket punched out of Iowa.
• 1:24
  [CHEERING]
• 1:29
  [END C-SPAN ARCHIVAL CLIP]
• 1:30
  Resnick, Narrating: And Haley argued that her numbers in other states put her ahead of DeSantis
• 1:34
  as the leading Trump alternative in the race.
• 1:36
  [START PBS NEWSHOUR ARCHIVAL CLIP]
• 1:37
  Nikki Haley: When you look at how we're doing in New Hampshire,
• 1:41
  in South Carolina, and beyond,
• 1:44
  [CHEERING]
• 1:52
  I can safely say, tonight,
• 1:57
  Iowa made this Republican primary a two-person race.
• 2:01
  [CHEERING]
• 2:06
  [END PBS NEWSHOUR ARCHIVAL CLIP]
• 2:06
  Resnick, Narrating: A second-place finish in Iowa might have helped propel Haley more.
• 2:10
  The next contest is the primary in New Hampshire next Tuesday.
• 2:14
  On "CBS,"
• 2:15
  Republican political analyst Leslie Sanchez said the state
• 2:18
  could be more favorable territory for other candidates.
• 2:21
  But the kind of support Trump showed in Iowa will be hard to overcome.
• 2:25
  [START CBS NEWS ARCHIVAL CLIP]
• 2:25
  Leslie Sanchez: Going into New Hampshire,
• 2:27
  a lot more independents, people that are open-minded conservatives,
• 2:30
  are leaning Republican,
• 2:32
  that are frustrated with Trump at the top of the ticket.
• 2:35
  That is open territory for Nikki Haley.
• 2:38
  But when you get past that, it gets incredibly difficult.
• 2:41
  The math gets incredibly difficult.
• 2:43

  Resnick, Narrating: Turnout last night was quite a bit lower than the competitive 2016 caucus,
• 2:47
  which could be expected given the weather.
• 2:50
  One Republican candidate has decided not to keep fighting
• 2:53
  for what looks like a race for second.
• 2:55
  Vivek Ramaswamy dropped out after finishing a distant fourth in Iowa.

  Now we want to highlight a story you might have missed this week,
• 3:21
  remembering someone who made an impact.
• 3:23
  Ten days after the mass shooting at Perry High School in Iowa,
• 3:27
  [MUSIC FADES OUT]
• 3:27
  the school's long-time principal, Dan Marburger, died at 56.
• 3:31
  He was shot while trying to distract the shooter.
• 3:35
  Witnesses say that Marburger gave several students time to escape.
• 3:40
  Marburger and his wife had five children.
• 3:42
  His daughter Claire said on social media that as soon as she heard
• 3:45
  there'd been a shooting, she had a feeling that her father would have tried to help.
• 3:50
  He has been lauded by Iowa authorities as a hero
• 3:53
  for intervening in a mass shooting that could have been more deadly.
• 3:56
  Sixth grader Ahmir Jolliff was also killed in the shooting.
• 4:00
  He was a student at the middle school in the building adjacent
• 4:03
  to Perry High School.
• 4:05
  Several others were wounded and the gunman died by suicide.
• 4:09
  Marburger worked in the Perry School District
• 4:11
  for nearly 30 years
• 4:13
  as a teacher, coach, administrator, and more.
• 4:16
  And according to "The Des Moines Register,"
• 4:17
  he once said he always knew he'd be a teacher.
• 4:21
  Claire Marburger said her father took no greater pride
• 4:25
  than seeing students graduate.
• 4:27
  She said he made sure to pronounce students' names correctly,
• 4:29
  spending months before graduation studying flashcards with each name.
• 4:33

• 4:34
  Iowa's governor ordered flags to fly at half-staff in his honor.
• 4:48
  Now, let's take a quick look at some other stories
• 4:50
  that are in the news.
• 4:52
  Israel's defense minister says the military is close
• 4:55
  to completing its most intense phase of fighting against Hamas in Gaza.
• 4:59
  [MUSIC FADES OUT]
• 4:59
  But the military says there is still more fighting ahead,
• 5:02
  including a vast network of tunnels to clear.
• 5:05
  The Biden administration has been pressuring Israel
• 5:07
  to move into a lower-intensity campaign
• 5:10
  that focuses on precision attacks on Hamas,
• 5:12
  not the broad airstrikes and large ground deployments
• 5:15
  that have been part of the war so far.
• 5:19
  In legal news, former President Trump may testify
• 5:22
  at a defamation trial that starts in New York today.
• 5:25
  The judge said that he would extend the trial if necessary
• 5:28
  so Trump could take the stand.
• 5:30
  This trial will decide how much
• 5:32
  he's required to pay the author, E. Jean Carroll,
• 5:35
  for defamatory comments that he made in 2019.
• 5:38
  This will be the second trial involving Carroll.
• 5:41
  Last year, a jury found Trump liable for defamation
• 5:44
  and for sexually abusing her in the 1990s.
• 5:47
  Trump is appealing that case.
• 5:50
  And in entertainment news, "Succession" and "The Bear"
• 5:53
  were the big winners at the Emmys last night,
• 5:55
  taking home the top prizes for best drama and comedy.
• 5:59
  Three members of the "Succession" cast took home acting trophies,
• 6:02
  including Sarah Snook, who thanked her very young daughter.

  It seems like every week there is a new water bottle obsession.
• 6:34
  There's S'well, Hydro Flask, Nalgene, CamelBak, and more.
• 6:38
  [MUSIC FADES OUT]
• 6:39
  Maybe you've seen someone on social media literally showing off their collection.
• 6:43
  But recently one type of water bottle from the company Stanley
• 6:46
  has been getting a lot of attention.
• 6:49
  "CNBC" takes a closer look at the rise of the Quencher bottle.
• 6:53
  Until recently, Stanley didn't have a lot of buzz.
• 6:56
  It's been around for more than a hundred years
• 6:58
  and mostly targeted campers and blue-collar workers
• 7:01
  with its humble but practical green thermoses.
• 7:05
  But that all changed around 2020 with a group of women influencers in Utah
• 7:10
  who thought the cup had potential to reach a broader market.
• 7:14
  Ashlee LeSueur co-founded a shopping blog called "The Buy Guide."
• 7:19
  Ashlee LeSueur: We felt really strongly that for a working mom
• 7:22
  to take her Stanley all day to hydrate her throughout her day does not
• 7:25
  in any way illustrate less strength
• 7:27
  than somebody taking a water bottle on a hike.
• 7:31
  Resnick, Narrating: LeSueur partnered with Stanley executives to promote the brand,
• 7:34
  and the company rolled out new colors for the Quenchers
• 7:37
  to try to broaden its appeal.
• 7:39
  And the sales went way up.
• 7:41
  Today, Stanley Quenchers are among the most popular water bottles
• 7:44
  in the world,
• 7:45
  with some customers camping outside of stores overnight
• 7:48
  to get their hands on new limited editions.
• 7:51
  In 2023, Stanley was projected to make more than $750 million in sales.
• 7:57
  Just a few years before, that figure was $70 million.
• 8:00
  [MUSIC FADES IN]
• 8:01
  And today, these ginormous $45 water bottles
• 8:04
  have become more than just something practical to drink out of.
• 8:08
  They're a kind of status symbol of wellness, health, and spending power.
• 8:16
