water is a nationwide issue. children in flint, michigan, were found to have learning delays after the lead water crisis began there ten years ago. today, chicago's department of water management told cbs news it has an issue with the study's methodology, saying its results only indicated whether there is a lead service line, not routine exposure. chicago environmental advocate sha key na perry is calling on the city to immediately replace lead water pipes. >> so not only is this a public health crisis, but it's also an environmental justice issue. and so when you look at it through that lens, that should create a sense of urgency to say that we can't wait any longer. >> reporter: the biden administration has vowed to remove all lead pipes nationwide. here in chicago, the department of water management says it's already introduced programs to remove the city's 400,000 lead service lines and offers residents with free water testing. nora. >> charlie de mar, thank you.

decades, and critics say this ruling is an affront to federal law. the case now heads back to the court of appeals to decide if it is constitutional or not. in the meantime, it's a major victory for texas and republican governor greg abbott. the white house said that they fundamentally disagree with the supreme court's order. cbs's ed o'keefe is on the campaign trail with the president, and he'll start us off tonight from las vegas. >> reporter: razor wire and texas national guard troops along the u.s./mexico border reinforced tonight by the u.s. supreme court. now lone star state sheriff and police departments can arrest, jail, and judges can prosecute migrants accused of illegally entering the u.s. >> he's not denying illegal entry. president biden is aiding and abetting illegal entry. >> reporter: texas governor greg abbott, who's been locked in a years-long fight with the federal government over border security, last year signed what is known as the sb4 law. today he called the supreme court's ruling a positive development. the white house sought to block

the law and today said it's another example of republican officials politicizing the border while blocking real solutions. he called on congress to pass a bipartisan security plan currently being blocked in the house. the supreme court allowed the law to take effect but still faces a challenge in a lower federal court. today conservative justices brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett urged the appeals court to rule quickly. liberal justices sonia sotomayor questioned the constitutionality and said it will upend the long-standing balance of power and sow chaos. multiple law enforcement officials tell cbs news they're already short-staffed and don't have the training from the state in how to enforce the law. >> it's not like, oh, he looks illegal and we're going to put him in jail. we can't do that, you know. we can't stereotype someone, you know, someone from mexico and do that. >> reporter: and that potential for racial profiling across texas is what concerns migrant activists like dylan corbett. >> it's not just against recently arriving migrants, migrants who are coming to the

border today, but this really goes after texans throughout the state. >> reporter: tonight the mexican government says it won't accept migrants that texas officials try to send back under the new law. campaigning here in nevada, president biden had no comment on the ruling. coincidentally, he's headed next to the border states of arizona and texas. norah. >> ed o'keefe, thank you very much. today former trump white house adviser peter navarro became the first person from the trump administration to go to prison over matters related to the january 6th attack on the capitol. cbs's robert costa reports navarro was convicted of contempt of congress and remained defiant to the very end. >> reporter: peter navarro made it clear he understood his fate this morning, and addressing reporters outside miami's federal correctional institution, the 74-year-old former trump trade adviser said he wasn't happy about it. >> i'm pissed. that's what i'm feeling right

now. but i'm also afraid of only one thing. i'm afraid for this country because this, what they're doing, should have a chilling effect on every american regardless of their party. if they come for me, they can come for you. >> reporter: navarro will live in an 80-person dormitory reserved for older inmates. he'll have access to a phone, email, and tv. >> the president's going to sign another order. >> reporter: once a combative fixture at trump's side, navarro now becomes the first ever former white house official jailed for contempt of congress. the four-month sentence handed down after he defied a subpoena from the house january 6th committee probing his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election. >> the election's over. the voting's over. but the outcome is not. >> reporter: navarro was an advocate of a proposed scheme to help trump stay in power. the former president, who continues to falsely claim the election was stolen and praises

those who face prosecution for their conduct on january 6th, said navarro was wronged. >> i think it's a shame. i think it's a disgrace. >> reporter: behind the scenes, republican sources tell me trump now faces intense stress politically and financially. his prize properties like trump tower and 40 wall street could be seized on monday by the new york attorney general if he doesn't secure its $454 million bond. >> robert costa, thank you. well, tonight two former mississippi sheriff's deputies are behind bars after being sentenced for taking part in the racially motivated torture of two black men last year. the deputies were among a group of white law enforcement officers who called themselves the goon squad because of their willingness to use excessive force. cbs's errol barnett reports. >> reporter: egregious and despicable. those words from a federal judge in mississippi describing the actions of former cops hunter elwood, sentenced to 20 years,

and jeffrey middleton, sentenced to more than 17 years. they along with four others, some of whom referred to themselves as the goon squad, pleaded guilty to breaking into this home early last year without a warrant, then terrorizing and torturing two black men, all apparently because they stayed at this house with a white woman. >> the six white police officers involved in this assault sought to dehumanize their victims. >> reporter: during the ordeal, both were handcuffed as deputies poured milk, alcohol, and syrup on their faces, calling them racial slurs. at one point, michael jenkins was shot in the mouth. >> he was looking at me. i was looking at him. we sat there for a minute, and he pulled the trigger. >> you could see the bullet coming out of the gun, the fire coming out. it was horrific. >> reporter: the federal charges were brought by the department of justice's civil rights division. >> it's hard to imagine a more atrocious set of civil rights

violations than those carried out by these guys. >> reporter: an investigation by the associated press revealed that since 2019, some of these deputies had been involved in at least four violent assaults on black men. they resulted in two deaths and another suffering lasting injuries. >> they're not just depriving victims of their civil rights. they're degrading the public's trust in our criminal justice system. >> reporter: now, there are still four additional deputies to be sentenced later this week. and during today's hearing in the federal courthouse you see behind me, hunter elwood addressed the court, said he accepted responsibility and said to the two victims, norah, that he apologized. at that point, one of the victims, eddie parker, stood, turned to him, and said, "i forgive you." >> oh, my goodness. wow. errol barnett, thank you. errol barnett, thank you. there's a lot more news life doesn't stop for a cold. honey... honey... dayquil severe honey. powerful cold and flu symptom relief with a honey-licious taste. dayquil honey, the honey-licious, daytime,

>> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." i'm olivia gazis in washington. thanks for staying with us. congressional leaders say they've hammered out a deal to keep the government funded, and the race is on to pass the legislation before a weekend shutdown deadline. the deal does not include funding for ukraine in its war with russia. overseas, the european union is debating whether to seize frozen russian assets to help arm ukraine. meanwhile, on the battlefield, american armor that's already been delivered is playing a crucial role. charlie d'agata reports. >> reporter: for the paratroopers of ukraine's 80th air assault brigade, these u.s.-supplied striker infantry vehicles have been lifesavers, literally, getting reinforcements into the fight or pulling them out of trouble in a hurry. you can see how bouncy it is

inside these vehicles, but they're very effective, very fast at getting soldiers from one part of the battlefield to another and providing protection. we're at a secret training base not far from the front lines in eastern ukraine, where the brigade is close enough to be rapidly deployed if necessary. strikers have been the workhorse of the u.s. military for years, now replacing dilapidated soviet-era vehicles here. agile eight-wheel drive capable of covering rough terrain at about to 16 miles an hour. armored personnel carriers are crucial for penetrating defenses and launching surprise assaults. and the men of the 80th air assault have themselves seen some of the most brutal fighting in and around the battle zones like bakhmut. though with ukrainian forces losing ground outdone and outnumbered, transporting troops sometimes means retreating under fire. this soldier, call sign titan,

is a driver for his unit. [ speaking in a global language ] >> reporter: "thanks to these vehicles, we have more advantages," he says. "it's easier for us with them. more people survive." the men are grateful for the new strikers, but there's a sense with dwindling supplies and dwindling western support, they face an uncertain future. charl charlie d'agata, cbs news, in eastern ukraine. closer to home, the biggest lake in california is slowly dying. but in the process, the salton sea is providing the local community a lifeline. john blackstone has that story. >> reporter: in california's imperial valley, the salton sea, the state's largest lake, has been shrinking for years, leaving a toxic, dusty shoreline. but now there's growing confidence the arid land around the salton sea holds a vast supply of lithium. >> it's a very significant sort of what we call a word-class

lithium resource. >> reporter: geologist pat dobson led a recent federal study of salton sea lithium reserves. >> that represents enough lithium to manufacture hundreds of millions of ev batteries. >> reporter: the move to electric vehicles has created a worldwide search for lithium to make batteries. but lithium around the salton sea has been no secret. >> and we've known that for decades. but what we didn't have before is there was not a great demand for lithium. >> reporter: for 40 years, lithium has been treated as an unwanted by-product by geothermal power plants in the area. the plants produce electricity by tapping superheated fluid called brine a mile beneath the earth's surface. the brine produces steam and then is injected back into the earth. lithium is one of the minerals in the brine. >> for decades we've been pulling lithium out of the ground and then putting it back. and so what we're looking at now is the opportunity to recover that lithium from the brine and utilize it for making batteries.

>> reporter: and that is bringing hope to imperial valley, where unemployment is high, wages are low, and agriculture is the dominant industry. >> this is something big for the valley, you know what i mean? because we never really had nothing of our own. >> reporter: johnny haywood is one of those in a night class of imperial valley college training mature students. some here are farmworkers. >> working the fields in the daytime. >> and at night i come to school. >> reporter: sammy gonzalez and his father, jose, both worked in the fields and are now looking for something better. >> it's a great opportunity. >> yeah, it's a great opportunity. i'm so happy because we are starting together. >> i don't want any industry to say we have to bring outside people because there's not a ready workforce in imperial county. >> reporter: efren silva, dean at imperial valley college, created the training program for lithium industry jobs. >> we hope and expect that there will be other industries joining

the lithium industry, such as battery manufacturing. >> reporter: the imperial valley dreams of becoming lithium valley. but the salton sea is a reminder of lost opportunities here. >> if you go back to a map of california in 1880, there is no salton sea in the salton sea. >> reporter: the salton sea was an accident created in 1905 when a levee broke and water from the colorado river poured into the valley. the lake brought new life to the desert. >> an idea that has intrigued and attracted and literally thrilled thousands upon thousands of men, women, and children. >> reporter: in the 1950s, it became a popular tourist destination, but that faded over the years as the lake became polluted with agricultural runoff and grew twice as salty as the pacific ocean. as a lake in the desert, the salton sea is important to wildlife, particularly birds on the pacific flyway, which is why in the 1990s, the local congressman campaigned vigorously to save the salton sea. the congressman was sonny bono.

yes, that sonny bono. ♪ i got you babe ♪ >> reporter: sonny and cher's popularity in the 1960s boosted bono's political profile when he ran for congress in 1994. his efforts helped prompt the salton sea restoration act, but the act didn't become law until months after bono died in a skiing accident in 1998. although the act directed the government to reclaim the salton sea, it has continued to shrink as water is diverted from the imperial valley to cities in the san diego area. but now lithium could change everything. >> this is the magic? >> this is -- this is where the magic happens. >> reporter: david deke is with energy source minerals, one of the companies developing methods for collecting lithium from geothermal brine. >> so each of these columns will contain absorb ant that absorbs lithium into it. >> reporter: this demonstration unit is in aship be container but the company is planning a

facility that will be the size of a thousand shipping containers. >> so you're confident. >> yeah. >> this is going to work a thousand times bigger. >> exactly. highly confident, yeah. >> so optimistically, the first commercially available licht yum from your plant is at least two years away? >> i would say that, yeah. if we close on financing and start construction immediately thereafter, we'll be in production and delivering to customers by 2026. >> reporter: in a region that has known plenty of hard times, there's a chance this time will be different. john blackstone, imperial valley, california. the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. i'm jonathan lawson, here to tell you about life insurance through the colonial penn program. if you're age 50 to 85 and looking to buy life insurance on a fixed budget, remember the three p's. what are the three p's? the three p's of life insurance on a fixed budget are price, price, and price.

notion or they have this miss conceived theory that the dogs are forced to run. and we can't force them to run. >> their performance is showing how well they're being taken care of. and our dogs get chiropractic work. they get massage care. everything that these dogs get is so -- >> olympic stuff. >> yeah. it's far above and beyond what the average house dog will ever get. >> reporter: so fernando took me along on a training run, one of several he does each day, where the dogs run up to 18 miles an hour to prepare for races as long as 30 miles. >> it's amazing. >> reporter: i learned about the rescue dog that came as a surprise to the ramirez family. a blind puppy named humberto. >> that's my boy. >> reporter: who helps lead the pack despite the odds stacked against him. >> he has such a fire and a passion. this dog with no eyes, he's helping to lead an entire team. he ignites a fire in everybody

else because he has such passion. >> what is the message of that kind of recovery and adaptation? >> i like to see it as if we really want to achieve something, life at times and most often will hand us a raw deal, right? we don't like the cards we're dealt with, but it's what we do with the cards we have at hand is what matters of the most. >> reporter: it's a lesson these dogs put on display around the world. unlikely competitors representing team usa in three world championships so far. >> you know, i stop to look back sometimes, like, how did this happen, you know? how did this happen? >> do you still feel like underdogs? >> oh, yeah. every day, yeah. all the time, yeah. >> reporter: though humility is definitely a top dog kin of

investors expect the federal reserve will not lower interest rates at its meeting this week. lower rates are seen as a

lifeline for the real estate industry, which is about to undergo the biggest change in decades. elise preston reports. >> reporter: it's a positive sign in a challenging market. the standard realtor commission could soon be going away. >> long-term, this is a seismic shift in a stodgy old business called real estate. >> reporter: the national association of realtors agreed to pay $418 million in damages to settle a series of lawsuits alleging it conspired to boost agent commissions. right now the u.s. average commission rate is about 5% or 6%, one of the highest in the world. u.s. consumers pay about $100 billion in commissions each year, which could be reduced by 30%. >> i think for sellers, you're going to negotiate with your agent to come up with a fee that is reasonable for you. for buyers, it's a game-changer. you may decide you don't even want a realtor.

>> reporter: new jersey-based broker michael latman says this is a radical shift for realtors. >> do you foresee brokers and agents leaving the business? >> a year from now, we might see 10% or morphewer realtors. brokers are going to need to step up their game in terms of what is their value proposition. >> reporter: and with historically low inventory and hi higher mortgage rates, experts say it could take some time to see a drop in home prices. the settlement has one final hurdle to clear. it has to be approved by the courts. but the new rules could take effect as early as july. elise preston, cbs news, los angeles. and that's the overnight news for this wednesday. reporting from the nation's capital, i'm olivia gazis. this is "cbs news flash."

i'm shanelle kaul in new york. a federal appeals court has put the texas immigration law known as sb4 back on hold. a hearing is scheduled for today. the bill gives texas power to jail and prosecute migrants suspected of illegally crossing the border. it wasas previously allowed to into effect by the supreme court tuesday pending a decision from the appeals court. israeli prime minister benjamin netanyahu will speak to senate republicans by video today. last week, senate majority leader chuck schumer called for elections for a new government in i ael. and beyoncé has revealed the cover art for her upcoming album, "act ii: cowboy carter." it's out on march 29th. for more, download the cbs news app on your cell phone or i'm shanelle kaul, cbs news, new york. this is a "show me your papers" law. >> breaking news.

texas can now arrest and detain anyone suspected of illegally crossing into the state from mexico. the fight over who can police the border escalating, and the supreme court weighing in. >> nearly half a million people here in el paso have to basically justify their presence in the united states because of the color of their skin. >> what this means for the battle over immigration. >> texas very simply is enforcing the laws. >> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." good evening. i'm norah o'donnell, and thank you for being with us. we want to begin tonight with a ruling from the supreme court that allows a sweeping texas immigration law to go into effect for now. in a 6-3 decision, the nation's highest court said it won't block the law known as sb4 that gives local and state police the power to arrest and detain migrants suspected of crossing the border illegally. the federal government has been the sole authority of immigration enforcement for

decades, and critics say this ruling is an affront to federal law. the case now heads back to the court of appeals to decide if it is constitutional or not. in the meantime, it's a major victory for texas and republican governor greg abbott. the white house said that they fundamentally disagree with the supreme court's order. cbs's ed o'keefe is on the campaign trail with the president, and he'll start us off tonight from las vegas. >> reporter: razor wire and texas national guard troops along the u.s./mexico border reinforced tonight by the u.s. supreme court. now lone star state sheriff and police departments can arrest, jail, and judges can prosecute migrants accused of illegally entering the u.s. >> he's not denying illegal entry. president biden is aiding and abetting illegal entry. >> reporter: texas governor greg abbott, who's been locked in a years-long fight with the federal government over border security, last year signed what is known as the sb4 law. today he called the supreme court's ruling a positive development. the white house sought to block the law and today said it's

another example of republican officials politicizing the border while blocking real solutions. he called on congress to pass a bipartisan security plan currently being blocked in the house. the supreme court allowed the law to take effect but still faces a challenge in a lower federal court. today, conservative justices brett kavanaugh and amy coney barrett urged the appeals court to rule quickly. liberal justices sonia sotomayor and ketanji brown jackson questioned the law's constitutionality and said it will upend the long-standing federal-state balance of power and sow chaos. multiple law enforcement officials tell cbs news they're already short-staffed and don't have the training from the state in how to enforce the law. >> it's not like, oh, he looks illegal and we're going to put him in jail. we can't do that, you know. we can't stereotype someone, you know, someone from mexico and do that. >> reporter: and that potential for racial profiling across texas is what concerns migrant activists like dylan corbett. >> it's not just against recently arriving migrants, migrants who are coming to the border today, but this really goes after texans throughout the

state. >> reporter: tonight the mexican government says it won't accept migrants that texas officials try to send back under the new law. campaigning here in nevada, president biden had no comment on the ruling. coincidentally, he's headed next to the border states of arizona and texas. norah. >> ed o'keefe, thank you very much. today former trump white house adviser peter navarro became the first person from the trump administration to go to prison over matters related to the january 6th attack on the capitol. cbs's robert costa reports navarro was convicted of contempt of congress and remained defiant to the very end. >> reporter: peter navarro made it clear he understood his fate this morning, and addressing reporters outside miami's federal correctional institution, the 74-year-old former trump trade adviser said he wasn't happy about it. >> i'm pissed. that's what i'm feeling right now.

but i'm also afraid of only one thing. i'm afraid for this country because this, what they're doing, should have a chilling effect on every american regardless of their party. if they come for me, they can come for you. >> reporter: navarro will live in an 80-person dormitory reserved for older inmates. he'll have access to a phone, email, and tv. >> the president's going to sign another order. >> reporter: once a combative fixture at trump's side, navarro now becomes the first ever former white house official jailed for contempt of congress. the four-month sentence handed down after he defied a subpoena from the house january 6th committee probing his role in trying to overturn the 2020 election. >> the election's over. the voting's over. but the outcome is not. >> reporter: navarro was an advocate of a proposed scheme to help trump stay in power. the former president, who continues to falsely claim the election was stolen and praises those who face prosecution for

their conduct on january 6th, said navarro was wronged. >> i think it's a shame. i think it's a disgrace. >> reporter: behind the scenes, republican sources tell me trump now faces intense stress politically and financially. his prize properties like trump tower and 40 wall street could be seized on monday by the new york attorney general if he doesn't secure its $454 million bond. >> robert costa, thank you. well, tonight two former mississippi sheriff's deputies are behind bars after being sentenced for taking part in the racially motivated torture of two black men last year. the deputies were among a group of white law enforcement officers who called themselves the goon squad because of their willingness to use excessive force. cbs's errol barnett reports. >> reporter: egregious and despicable. those words from a federal judge in mississippi describing the actions of former cops hunter elwood, sentenced to 20 years,

and jeffrey middleton, sentenced to more than 17 years. they along with four others, some of whom referred to themselves as the goon squad, pleaded guilty to breaking into this home early last year without a warrant, then terrorizing and torturing two black men, all apparently because they stayed at this house with a white woman. >> the six white police officers involved in this assault sought to dehumanize their victims. >> reporter: during the ordeal, both were handcuffed as deputies poured milk, alcohol, and syrup on their faces, calling them racial slurs. at one point, michael jenkins was shot in the mouth. >> he was looking at me. i was looking at him. we sat there for a minute, and he pulled the trigger. >> you could see the bullet coming out of the gun, i mean the fire coming out. it was horrific. >> reporter: the federal charges were brought by the department of justice's civil rights division.

>> it's hard to imagine a more atrocious set of civil rights violations than those carried out by these guys. >> reporter: an investigation by the associated press revealed that since 2019, some of these deputies had been involved in at least four violent assaults on black men. they resulted in two deaths and another suffering lasting injuries. >> they're not just depriving victims of their civil rights. they're degrading the public's trust in our criminal justice system. >> reporter: now, there are still four additional deputies to be sentenced later this week. and during today's hearing in the federal courthouse you see behind me, hunter elwood addressed the court, said he accepted responsibility and said to the two victims, norah, that he apologized. at that point, one of the victims, eddie parker, stood, turned to him, and said, "i forgive you." >> oh, my goodness. wow. errol barnett, thank you.

might happen? >> no idea. no idea. >> reporter: this woman, who did not want her identity revealed, came to the airport early this morning with no baggage in hand, scared for those she leaves behind. >> the thing is people go inside your house, killing, raping, all those things, burning your house. you don't know tomorrow what's going to happen. >> reporter: cbs miami reporter tania francois was also in cap-haitien, where she was on board one of the several missionary flights bringing aid and evacuating people. >> airport workers tell me this is the first flight to come in from the united states with passengers, also with supplies. >> reporter: residents in the capital of port-au-prince see no end to a crisis that has their city plagued by gang violence. more than 86,000 people are displaced with no access to food or gas. people on the streets are on the brink of starvation. widespread power outages are leaving some stranded and still hoping for a way out. manuel bojorquez, cbs news,

children in flint, michigan, were found to have learning delays after the lead water crisis began there ten years ago. today chicago's department of water management told cbs news it has an issue with the study's methodology, saying its results only indicated whether there is a lead service line, not routine exposure. chicago environmental advocate sha key na perry is calling on the city to immediately replace lead water pipes. >> so not only is this a public health kries, but it's also an environmental justice issue. when you look at through that lens, that should create a sense of urgency to say that we can't wait any longer. >> reporter: the biden administration has vowed to remove all lead pipes nationwide. here in chicago, the department of water management says it's already introduced programs to remove the city's 400,000 lead service lines and offers residents with free water testing. norah. >> charlie de mar, thank you.
