♪ i'm stuck in some traffic ♪ in downtown l.a. ♪ singing car karaoke >> this morning's "eye opener" is presented by toyota. let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning." as you wake up in the west, president trump has named his choice to be fbi director. he tweeted this morning "i will be nominating christopher a. wray, a man of impeccable credentials, to be the new director." >> wray was chosen one day before congressional testimony from james comey. the president fired him as fbi director last month. major garrett is at the white house with the long-awaited decision. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. president trump's abrupt announcement on twitter follows a lengthy and meandering search for an fbi director, one that's culminated in a former bush justice department official with

substantial background in white collar prosecutions, but very little terrorism or national security-related experience. wray served from 2003 to 2005 as assistant attorney general in charge of the criminal division, and that work focused on prosecuting largely corporate fraud cases. chief among those, enron. wray has been in private practice since leaving the justice department and was part of the legal team that defended new jersey governor, chris christie, in the so-called bridgegate scandal. that scandal led to the convictions of two senior kris christie aides. christie is a long-time advisor to president trump. wray is not expected to encounter stiff resistance during his confirmation hearings in the republican-controlled senate. several candidates originally high on president trump's short list for fbi director withdrew their names from consideration as revelations about the attempt to influence james comey to drop

the investigation into fired michael flynn. the president's tweet this morning took his communications team by surprise, and there is as yet no formal statement on wray's appointment, and the nomination has not been formally september to the senate. now, gayle, the first time we might have an opportunity to hear from the president is later today in cincinnati, where the topics at least on the schedule are infrastructure reform and repealing and replace the affordable care act. >> thank you, major. we are learning more about james comey's highly anticipated testimony to congress tomorrow. a source close toey tells cbs news the director was mr. trump made requests that comey believed were inappropriate. >> there are also new signs this morning that sessions and the president are at odds over the handling of the russia investigation. margaret brennan is at the white house. margaret, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. nominating a new fbi director changes the story, but it keeps the spotlight on that russia

investigation, which is making it more difficult for president trump to accomplish his legislative goals. >> i wish him luck. >> reporter: president trump made no mention of acrimony toward fired fbi director james comey, who is set to testify to even joking with republican lawmakers about the rising profile of his son-in-law, jared kushner. >> jared, jared has actually become much more famous than me. i'm a little bit upset about that. >> reporter: the ribbing drew comparisons to president trump singling out of then fbi director comey just two days after his inauguration. >> he's become more famous than me. >> reporter: a source close to comey tells cbs news that the president's outreach amid an ongoing fbi investigation made the former fbi director so uncomfortable that he asked attorney general jeff sessions not to leave him alone in a room with mr. trump. in comey's view, the president's request for him to drop the probe into fired national security advisor michael flynn's contacts with russia was

inappropriate. but a source says comey will stick to the facts and will not accuse the president of trying to obstruct justice. >> few others can say that their work matters so much. >> reporter: tensions developed between president trump and his attorney general after sessions recused himself from the russia investigation, a decision that paved the way for special prosecutor robert mueller to take over the probe. white house press secretary sean spicer refused to say whether mr. trump still had confidence in sessions. >> i said i have not had a discussion with him on the question. >> reporter: paback in may, spir said the same thing about comey just hours before he was fired. >> i have no reason to believe -- i haven't asked him. i have not asked the president since the last time we spoke about this. >> reporter: sessions' deputy, rod rosenstein, as well as the director of national intelligence, dan coats, are speaking now to the senate intelligence committee about russia. coats issued a statement saying that he has never felt any

pressure from the president to influence any investigation. >> margaret, thanks. in our next hour we'll talk with one of the senators who will question comey tomorrow. that's democratic vice chairman of the intelligence committee, senator mark warner, will join us from washington. and tomorrow we'll bring you live coverage of james comey's senate testimony. john dickerson will be with us an a team of correspondents will cover the hearing and the reaction. the special report starts tomorrow at 7:00 a.m. pacific time here on cbs. you can also watch on cbsn, which streams on our cbs news app and at cbsnews.com. if you are interested at all in what's going on in this country, tomorrow will be one of the most highly anticipated testimonies in a long, long time. >> block it off on the calendar. >> indeed. go to bed early. >> i like that we will have a front row seat. looking forward to it. russian hackers may have used a phony news story to create a growing diplomatic dispute in the middle east. it involves the country of qatar, a key ally of the united

states. it hosts a major american air base. six arab nations, including other u.s. ally, have cut off relations to qatar over its ties to iran. cbs news has confirmed the fbi is helping qatar's government investigate a cyber breach of a state-run news outlet that ran the fake story. >> president trump is praising the arab countries' move against qatar saying he inspired it during last month's trip to the middle east. he tweeted this yesterday. so good to see the saudi arabia visit with the king and 50 countries already paying off. perhaps this will be the beginning of the end to the horror of terrorism. jeff pegues is at qatar's embassy in washington right now. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. a top russian official denied that russian hackers were behind the fake news story, saying that there was zero evidence, but law enforcement sources confirm that there was at least some russian involvement suspected in the cyber attack that created this diplomatic crisis. >> relationship is extremely

good. >> reporter: president trump recognized qatar during a visit to the region last month. >> qatar, which hosts the u.s. central command, is a crucial strategic partner. >> reporter: but earlier this week, six arab nations, including saudi arabia and the united arab emirates, broke diplomatic and commercial ties with the critical u.s. ally, citing its financial support of terrorism. qatar's isolation is reportedly in reaction to a false news report planted by cyber hackers on may 23rd. the story attributed false remarks to the qatari leader that appeared friendly to iran and israel and questioned whether president trump would last in office. the fbi has confirmed the hack may have resulted in fake news sharing and that russia is a suspect. >> part of russia's activity is to drive a wedge between the u.s. and our allies at large. >> reporter: cbs news security

contributor says the u.s. cannot let the incident undermine its relationship with qatar, which hosts the largest american military base in the middle east. >> the u.s. presence in qatar is so critical to our campaign against isis, and our aerial campaign in the region. >> reporter: the secretaries of state and defense have tried to de-escalate the crisis, but yesterday the president appeared to take credit for the arab states' decision. in a series of tweets he wrote his recent visit to the middle east was already paying off and that extremism funding was pointing to qatar. >> guys, let's move off this social media thing. >> reporter: state department spokesman heather tried to downplay the significance of the tweets. >> we recognize qatar continues to make itself to stop the financing of terror groups. >> reporter: during a call yesterday with the king of saudi arabia, white house officials say that president trump urged unity among gulf states, apparently walking back his earlier tweets. qatari officials, they don't point to the russians for the

hack, they blame the saudis. the ongoing news about russia and other issues interfering with the white house efforts to implement its agenda. president trump goes to cincinnati this morning to promote his plan for infrastructure. gary cohn joins us now from the white house. good morning. >> good morning, charlie. >> how much of a threat is the focus on the russian probe to the president's domestic agenda, including health care, tax reform and infrastructure? >> look, charlie, we're here to implement the president's agenda. the president ran on a pro-economic growth, pro-job croatian agenda. that's what we're doing. we're working every day to do that. we're just plowing ahead with that. >> clearly that sounds like a canned answer that you expected to that question. how are you going to get it through congress when so much attention and so much >> as you know, you said we're going to cincinnati today. we're going to look at our inland waterway system. we've got 12,000 miles of inland

waterways. enormous amount of freight moves through those inland waterways. we are a huge exporter of agricultural products to the world that moves through the inland waterways, the ohio river and mississippi river. we talked on monday about air traffic control and the privatization of air traffic control. we're doing all of these things to make american citizens' lives better. we're trying to improve the quality of life of american citizens and we're committed to that agenda. >> gary, that really clearly isn't what people are talking about and focusing on right now. i'm curious about where the president's head is at right now. yesterday we heard him say he wished james comey luck as he testifies tomorrow. is he frustrated by what's happening? does he plan to watch the hearings tomorrow? what is he thinking in the white house as we get ready for a very big day tomorrow? >> on tomorrow's agenda, i've got the president booked up on a bunch of infrastructure projects. we've got a bunch of mayors and governors in, bipartisan group in talking about infrastructure tomorrow. this is infrastructure week.

every day we're working on different infrastructure products. remember, infrastructure affects every scitizen. the president cares about infrastructure. he's going to be fully engaged in a bipartisan discussion with governors and mayors tomorrow on infrastructure. >> will the infrastructure plan be married to a tax measure, yes or no? >> i don't know. i don't know. >> gary, if you're serious about infrastructure, why isn't there a detailed plan? >> we will have a detailed plan. think of what we've done already this week. we announced a privatization of air traffic control system. one of the most important assets in the united states. we did that without a bill. we sent a recommendation to congress, both the senate and the house, to put air traffic control system into a private nonprofit company. that affects every american in this country. we're all affected by the air traffic control company. >> gary, there's no doubt you could get democratic support on

an infrastructure plan and there's political support for an infrastructure plan. the question is how the white house is operating and whether you're doing all those steps to actually get something done. senator tom harper, the democrat you should be working on, says there has been no outreach at all from the white house. >> look, i think we're doing an enormous effort on infrastructure. we're working with everyone who wants to work with us on infrastructure. we had an enormous group in the east wing on monday announcing air traffic control. we had support from all the participants. we had many leaders of both the senate and the house here. we're working with everyone that wants to work with us on infrastructure. this is important to american citizens. >> also what's important to american citizens is what's happening to the climate. it is said that you supported the paris accord, although it's not necessary for you to tell us how you advised the president. but has the impact of the decision to leave paris had an impact on the relationship with countries in europe?

>> look, charlie, we've got great relationships with all of our allied nations. we're continuously working with them on many different aspects, whether it's national security, military, economic. we're in constant dialogue with them. we've got many of our secretaries around the world. we've got our defense leaders around the world. we've got our intelligence leaders around the world. we're continuously having dialogue with the world leaders. the president and many of us are going to the g20 meetings in germany in early july. we're in continuous interaction with our allies around the world. >> gary cohn, thank you for joining us this morning. >> thanks for having me. terrorists in iran's capital struck two high-profile targets this morning. isis claims responsibility for the attacks. cameras captured this explosion at the mausoleum holding the body of iran's former leader, the ayatollah khamenei. the other attack hid iran's parliament about 20 miles away.

♪ good morning to our viewers in the west. wednesday, june 7. welcome back to "cbs this morning." ahead breaking news, president trump announces that he will nominate christopher wray to be the fbi director. mark warner on tomorrow's testimony from former fbi director, james comey. but first, here's today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> president trump has named his fbi director. >> wray was chosen one day before congressional testimony from james comey. >> president trump's abrupt announcement follows a lengthy and meandering search for the fbi director. >> this changes the story, but not the russia investigation making it more difficult to

accomplish his legislative goals. >> the president ran on a pro economic growth, pro jobs creation agenda that's what we're doing. we're working every day to do that. we're just plowing ahead with that. >> but clearly, that sounds like kind of a canned answer that you expected to that question. >> terrorists in iran's capital struck two high profile targets this morn, isis claims responsibility for the attack. >> reality winner is being held in the county jail on espionage charges. she called her parents decided to speak out on her behalf. >> we're here in the beautiful historical central westminster. this is so amazing. you know martin luther king gave a speech here. winston churchill spoke here in this very hall and despite all of that, they still allowed me to come here and make a television show. >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell.

breaking news from the white house. president trump has found a replacement for fired fbi director james comey. the president tweeted i will be nominating christopher a. wray, a man of impeccable credential to be new director. >> let's go right now to margaret brennan. she's at the white house. good morning. what can you tell us? >> good morning. gayle, this is a very trumpian way to make an announcement, via tweet instead of a traditional ceremony in the rose garden. the white house said very little what went into the thinking on the final decision. but we know it comes after he fired director comey back at the beginning of last month. now, this goes on -- this nomination into a time of a lot of pressure because of the ongoing probe into connections between russia and the trump administration and trump campaign. what we know is christopher wray is a litigation attorney who comes with the endorsement so to speak of new jersey governor chris christie because he served christie in a role during that bridgegate candle.

-- scandal. we know that wray came to the white house to meet with president trump to interview for the job last tuesday. he was one of two remaining candidates at that time. there had been others in the running, but a few had withdrawn themselves due to the scale and scope of the job. whoever steps into the position faces a lot of scrutiny, not just on the fbi director, but also on the position that his boss or direct boss, attorney general jeff sessions is facing. as we have been reporting the president has been frustrated recently with the justice department and his attorney general. so now having chris wray report to sessions he's stepping into a big role at a time there's incredible scrutiny on him, on the fbi and pressure from the white house to change the focus. change the narrative from the question about alleged contact with russia. for the moment t story has changed but the spotlight remains on the russia probe. fbi director comey will be testifying tomorrow on capitol hill.

norah? >> margaret, thanks. the senate intelligence committee is starting two days of hearing. the committee is likely to ask about russia today. when top intelligence officials and the deputy attorney general testify about fisa warrants. former fbi director comey testifies tomorrow. a source tells cbs news that he told jeff sessions he did not want to be alone with the president. this followed the meeting that comey said that the president asked him not to investigate then national security adviser flynn. sources say comey does not plan to allege obstruction of justice. senator mark warner of virginia is the top democrat on the senate intelligence committee and he's with us this morning from capitol hill. good morning. >> good morning. >> a lot to talk to you about today, but first, let's get to the breaking news. the president announcing via twitter his choice to be the new fbi director.

christopher wray. do you know him? >> i don't know christopher wray but i hear he's got a good reputation. this is an effort to try to distract attention from our hearings today and tomorrow. >> well -- >> well, i think we'll hear some interesting things this morning. because not only do we have reports that the president tried to intervene with fbi director comey and ask him to back off the investigation of general flynn which would be totally inappropriate, but we also have reports that he also asked the director of national intelligence dan coates and the head of the nsa admiral rodgers to also back off or try to down play the fbi investigation into mr. trump and his affiliates. we'll have a chance to talk with those gentlemen this morning. if they -- they may try to, you

know, hide behind executive privilege or legalese. but if we have today evidence of a pattern of the president trying to intervene and then tomorrow with even more direct evidence when jim comey gets to tell his story, i think all of those efforts to tract the public that the -- to distract the public that the president is throwing up aren't going to work. >> if in fact those things are confirmed does that constitute p>> i'm not -- i went to law school, but i never practiced a day of law i will leave that to better legal minds than me. but what it shows is a disturbing pattern. one thing we have learned from watergate, it's not the right role for the president to intervene in the ongoing investigation particularly when that investigation involves potentially the president and his affiliates. what we do know for sure is this president said there were no contacts with russians. that just isn't true. we had his nsa adviser general flynn resign because he didn't

tell about the contacts. we have had his attorney general recuse himselves. we have now one of his closest advisers mr. kushner, a whole series of contacts. why so many contacts, why want they revealed and we need to figure it why is the president trying to back down this investigation. >> senator warner, you have said to me and others in interviews that this is the most important thing that you have been involved in. we had former dni mr. clapper, general clapper, admiral clapper say yesterday in australia that this is far worse than watergate. based on your knowledge so far is it? >> well, this has got more moving parts than watergate or any other potential investigation that i am aware of in modern times. there's not a week that goes by there's not a new story about contacts, russian intervention that really we have to get to the bottom of it.

the good news is that at least in the senate intelligence committee we're doing this in a bipartisan way because the worst thing that could happen would be if this committee splits and we ended up with a democratic narrative and a republican narrative. i don't believe that's going to happen. i think we are going follow the facts wherever they lead. >> senator, i just heard you say that you intend to press them pretty hard today. what your strategy, what is it you want to know? >> what i want to know, and i understand that -- i have a great deal of respect for dan coates. he used to be a colleague of mine on the intelligence committee. and admiral rodgers has served close to 40 years both in the military and as the head of nsa. i understand they're active members of this administration. some of the questions i'm going to ask are going to be a bit uncomfortable. but i think in this case, the american public's need to know with this cloud that hangs over everything that this administration is doing, if they can help clarify, i hope they'll

step up and i think we will have at least in the case of admiral rodgers some other evidence that the call took place and that there is some memorializing of that call. and that's very, very concerning to me. >> senator, one of the other things we're learning is that former fbi director comey told the attorney general, jeff sessions, he didn't want to be alone with the president of the united states. and yet, the former fbi director didn't tell anybody in the justice department about that. if he believes that the president was trying to obstruct justice why didn't he tell the justice department? >> well, that's a good question. that's a question that needs to be asked. but what you may have here is a series of interventions that i believe these individuals all felt was at least improper or up comfortable. you just don't have a sitting president ask about an ongoing

investigation particularly when that ongoing investigation involves close associates of the president. and if the president went as far as to say, back off or in the case of general flynn, can you just let the whole thing go, that is just unacceptable. others will make the decision whether that crosses a legal boundary, but clearly, you kn , know, -- as a former governor i would never put people who worked for me in that kind of circumstance. >> senator, based on what you know as the minority -- as the minority member of this committee, do you fear this goes far more than anything we have known so far? far deeper, far wider. >> i feel like what i thought most of the time we'd be spending would be spent on contacts between trump affiliates and associates and the russians prior to the election. there's a whole series of interviews and potential stories that we have not even gotten to yet. because we have also had this whole series of contacts

including with the attorney general including with mr. kushner that took place between the election and the swearing in. really again an unprecedented level of contacts with a country that at least until recently has been an adversary and a country that massively intervened in our elections. and now we've got these series of interventions by the president with his top intelligence officials. and the one thing that we pride ourselves in this country is that our intelligence officials speak truth to power. they are not supposed to be political. and if we prove out today that a top two rodgers, coats asked him to back off and then if we have comey coming forward with memos that were contemporaneous with the series of conversations from the president, you know, in total, we're going to see pattern here that even the biggest skeptic would have to say this is very, very serious. >> senator warner, thank you for

joining us this morning. >> thank you. >> we'll bring you live coverage, james comey testimony. we'll be here in studio 57, and the team of correspondents will cover the hearing and reaction from washington. the cbs news special report begins at 7:00 tomorrow here.
