about, oh, an eighth tenth of an inch of snow to paralyze the region. car crashes. slick streets. and crowded roads. made driving nearly impossible washington, d.c. last night. gridlocking roads until after midnight. more than 160 accidents in the area turned the nation's capital into a mess. >> i thought that i was going to make it up the hill and then i realized a lot of other people thought the same thing, and here we are. >> reporter: cars that weren't sliding, were left stranded. >> that's the road. there are people stuck everywhere. >> reporter: less than an inch and a half of snow was enough to turn quick commutes into marathon trips to nowhere. >> as you can see, they didn't treat the roads and this is what i'm dealing with. >> reporter: major highways were brought to a standstill as

the regionon was unprepared for light snow! >> the traffic, i've been in traffic three hours to get home. ridiculous. i don't understand why they didn't prepare.e. an hour now. >> reporter: even president weather. his motorcade skidded and slogged its wayhrough traffic along with the rest of d.c. commuters. thee mayor's office admitted this storm, before the storm, caught the district off-guard. late last night, the city launched an additional 100 sasa trucks t thelp clear roads. school districts across the region are either delayed or canceledorning. d.c.'s mayor is expected at a press conference to talk about storm preparations later today. you can bet she is going to get some tough questions. >> we feel your pain there. thank you, kris. snow and freing rain in tennessee created icy roads. police r rponded to s seral crashes along major highways

further to the north. snowfall totals are still pretty darn impressive with this thing. i think the bull's-eye is washington, d.c. you can see a foot of snow outside of new york city into portions of virginia and west virginia and the bull's-eye, again, with a foot to two feet of snow and maybe more than that around washington, d.c. into virginia and into west virgrgia. i don't know if there is a rivalry between the university of virginia and and marco rubio who is tied for thd. major garrett in washington is following the top gop candidates. >> reporter: good morning. let's talk about the republican machine you've heard so much about. it's sputtering. how do we know? donald trump and ted cruz continue ti dominate the gop race.

rididile the establishment, the machine at every turn. but, lately, these lines are blurring and that means cruz must denounce anyone who backs trump as an establishment toty. anyone that is, not named sarah palin. >> even today, the gop machine, they are attacking their own front-runner. reporter: sarah palin hit the road w wh donald trump on wednesday aiming to fortify the front-runner's conservative credential. >> our candidate is ballsy enough to get out there and put those issues on the table! >> reporter: each as palin soaked up cheers and pulse that she spoke openly about pain within her family. >> guess it's kind of an elephant in the room. >>eporter: palin's oldest son track, a a iraq warveteran, was arrested on domestic violence and weapons charges earlier this week. palin linked the assault to post-traumatic stress and used the moment to take a shot at president obama. >> my son, like so many others, they come back a bit different. they come back hardened.

around there for a very, very long time. it's from these groups are, in fact, part of the establishment. >> reporter: sanders is trying to position himself as an outsider. clinton camp says he is too far outside. >> i think the term socialist doesn't make it easier to win. >> reporter: kentucky governor argued wednesday that putting a socialist at the top of the ticket would hurt democrats down the ballot in november. new york congressman steve israel. >> a place to carry the socialist barn. no questioabout it.% i'm not particularly concerned that in certain districts the banner you want to parade it. >> reporter: clinton backers said his past positions would make sanders an easy target to republicans. in the '70s, sanders favored 100% tax on income over a million dollars. at the cbs debate, sanders joked he has backed off that position -- a bit. >> we haven't come up with an

high as the number under dwight d. eisenhower under 90% but i'm not that shmuch of a socialist compared to eisenhower. >> polls show sanders would do better against top republicans this clinton were. her team argues that is just because she is the one taking all of the incoming fire from republicans, a sign, they argue, the republicans stilliew her as a tougher opponent in the fall.. >> nanay, thanks. a british judge this morning, said russia's president likely approved the killing of a former spy. a new report said alexander litvinenko died in london after drinking poisonous tea in 2006. charlie dgata is in london with more. >> reporter: alexandra litvininko was delelerately poisoned and assassinated was never in question but this goes further and says his killers

of e-mails and documents late wednesday. one by an aide said that other state official are worried about people in flint turning this issue into a political football. but these e-mails don't change the reality for the people living here. they canan drink the tap water and depend on bottled water to survive. in september 25th e-mail to governor snyder, his chief of staff ro the real responsibilities rests with the county, city, and kwa referring to a water authority. he continued and since the issue here is of the health of citizens and their children we are taking a pro active approach. much more retired yesterday. days after that e-mail the governor announced the severity of the city's water problem after he he said he received confirmation of lead contamination. are these e-mails enough? >> no. >> reporter: this man lost re-election innovember. >> too little here to tell. this is missing a whole year and it's missing all of the key

was found on the far edge of the system. astronomers at the california institute of technhnogy have not directly seen it yet but thinks it's up to ten times bigger than earth and 20 times farther away than neptune. derrick pitts is chief astronomer and director of the planetarium planetarium. how exciting is this to the world of asstrontronomy? >> it's exciting. for the first time we are identifying another planet in our solar system. like an indication we really don't know everything there is to know about our solar system and there is lots more to learn a. >> reporter: what is the evidence it's there? >> the evidence we can look at objects orbiting around our solar system and figure out why their motions are the way they are. cause of the gravitational influences of everything else around. we looked at objects and

understand their motion. however, if we insert into the equation an object about the size of this planet nine, everything then worked out perfectly. so that is what gives the suspicion that it reaeay does exist.t. >> so you don't see it, but you said it's all about the numbers. two scientists are playing around with numbers and they think what? >> they think, this doesn't add up. we need to ask some other folks to take a look at this for us and tell us if we are crazy. sure enough, that is what they gp the cal tech astronomers sai you know the idea about being another planet? it's not a crazy idea and it looks like it'sseally possibib. now what they will do is let this information out to the rest of the astro none cal community to figure out what is going on and make sure everything is correct and do the observations. >> some are stepping toward too say they are convinced? >> well, it is -- yes, they are pretty well convinced. now they need the visual evidence to back it up because, as i said, the numbers don't lie. >> how h hd is it toet the visual evidence?

was interested in. pluto 4.6 billion miles from the sun. >> right. >> this new planet would be out 20 billion miles from the sun. >> it's even further out than that at its greatest extent. the point is we can develop instrumentation that goes on big telescopes around the world will give us the capability to see it. the real trick we have to know where to look and right now we don't know where to look. astronomers are incredible hunters and can figure this out. >> the numbers are awesome. how long would it take to navigate the sun? >> it's a 20,000-year orbit. >> 20,000 years? >> we won't be here! >> not only will we not be here but in the history of us looking at the sky, we have not yet really seen this. we don't know if it's come around to our part of the solar system or not. but one of the really cool things about this sto is that one of the astronomers mike brown said since he was the person that downgraded the

daughter has been a little upset with him. he says perhaps this will make up for that. >> when i grew up we were taught there were nine planets. coming full circle. >> i feel much better now there is a ninth planet. >> the next step is further examine the evidence they have? >> right. they will keep looking at the numbers to see if they can find any other way this can manifest itself. and objects could manifest itself this way and they are looking for the visual. >> next time you come, would you wear a brighter tie? i need my sunglasses. >> you are out of this world. >> it looks like it came from the south of france. >> i like it. >> thank you. i'll go for that. millio nationwide are waking up this morning to below freezing conditions. but 2015 was the hottest year on record. federal government findings announced yesterday show the earth's temperature went up 0.03 of a degree. last ar's warmest t t warmest

this election is on track to break all spending records. it could likely cost several billion dollars by the end of last year, presidential campaigns and outside groups supporting them raised more than $600 million. between e ndidates, superer pacs and other committees, that number is going to explode. funded in part from donors. but with all of those groups asking for money, it can be confusing. julianna goldman is in washington with a cbs news investigation that reveals why it's important for donors to do their homework. >> reporter: behind@every politica solicitation, there is an entire industry of consultants who hunt for donors but times they few vars actually make it to specific candidates. now this technically isn't illegal because, believe it or

related purposes. >> a lot of people were older. >> reporr: kristinana and c.j were paid. >> whatever the number, whatever you felt like you could work out of them. >> reporter: they worked for this milwaukee-based telemarketing firm called american liberty group. public records show it was paeds 400,000 by a political action committee called conservative strike force. zubic sasa one donor said he was dying of cancer so she asked a supervisor for guidance. >> why didn't you tell him this is an opportunity to give one big last donation. >> reporter: give one last big donation before he dies?? >> yes. >> reporter: american liberty also solicited money from veterans on behalf of conservative strike force. cbs news obtained this script saying, can strikeforce count on your support of our veterans during thehe important times? but we couldn't find any money going to veterans causes.

found since 2011, conservative strike strikeforce and other pacs raised over $33 million large from republican retirees but only 8% went to the causes they claimed to support. the rest went to a group of companies who used those donatitis to make more money. is it a scam? >> oh, no question. you just can't say an organization out there that is spending 95% of its money just to raise more m mey and never has any intention of doing the things it's telling the people that it's talking to that it anythinglse. >> rorter: former virginia attorney general ken cuccinelli was the 2012 republican conservative strike force used his name in the fund-raisin pitches without his approval. he said they made false promises to voters so he sued them. >> they listed four thin. they didn't dony of those things. >> reporter: so when donors give to conservative strikeforce,

the pac, as well as six others have the same treasurer. a man named scott mckenzie and have the same a aress 37. p.o. bochltx 806 at this u.p.s. store. mackenzie is paid to be the treasurer of all of these different pacs. >> reporter: mackenzie wouldn't speak on camera and says he doest have any current ties to the vendors. he says as treasurer for total of 25 pacs, he takes all of the heat for decisions that other people make. already in this election cycle, donald trump asked mackenzie to shut down his unauthorized group patriots for trump. mackenzie said he will imply. in the meantime this former telemarketer in milwaukee had some advice. >> don't give anytytng over the phone phone. if you want to support something, go to the website of

support and, and i'm sorry. i'm sorry for my part in that. >> reporter: kristina and c.j. both felt because they felt uncomfortable with what was happening. we asked mackenzie about the causes for veteran causes and said they were test calls andnd no money was raised. kristina verified payments but doesn't remember how much. already in 2016 some of mackenzie pacs have report spending hundreds of thousands of dollars largely from contacting voters across the country. >> wow. really disturbing. did you find, are these limited to conservates or does this also happen on the left too? >> reporter: while these kind of scams are most prevalent on the right it's not limited to conservative causes. bernie sanders campaign sent a cease and desist letter to a man running an attack and runnini sanders campaign and that man is connected to eight other pacs. a family connection to the white house will not land one very high profile graation

it's just a different day they've got the assault of online. the millennial shopper is not that into retail in terms of buying clothes. they want experiential pchases like vacations, going out to dinner. and that's a lot to overcome. >> mellody, thank you so much. >> great to see you. >> always good to see you. sarah palin's endorsement of donald trump also launched a debate about fashion. now her decision to wear a glitzy jacket on stage is sparking a very strong response, you could say. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." jacket o o stage is
