7:05 am
pale. >> reporter: the children rarely ventured outside, but on sunday morn, police say a 17-year-old girl did leave, or as authorities say, she escaped. >> the young lady managed to escape that residence and find a phone and call the police to notify them that she and her siblings had been held captive in their home. >> reporter: investigators found 12 children, several shackled to their beds with chains and padlocks. authorities say they claimed to be starving. and described the surroundings as dark and foul smelling. the youngest child is 2 years old. police say they initially thought all 13 were minors. but were shocked to discover seven of them were adults. the oldest is 29. the six minors were admitted to riverside university hospital. the adults are being treated here at corona regional medical center. >> they're all in very stable condition and they're all in -- they're doing very well considering the magnitude of of what's been described. >> reporter: the children were

it. >> yes. >> i'm glad that simone is speaking out. i know that's painful. >> me, too. >> yes, it will help. thank you, jon. the anger over president trump's reported vulgar talk on immigration is now closer to forcing a government shutdown. congress needs to pass some kind of spending bill by friday. but now that is in jeopardy by gop plans to phase out the daca program that protects young undocumented immigrants. nancy cordes is on capitol hill. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. some democrats are saying they will not vote to fund the government at the end of this week unless republicans embrace a bipartisan solution for the so-called dreamers, young people who were brought to this country illegally. and that is raising the possibility of the first government shutdown since 2013. >> i urge the president to lead us to that bipartisan solution. mr. president, close the deal. >> reporter: republican senator lindsey graham called on the president to broker a solution for daca. that also fixes a broken
7:12 am
immigration system. >> it's not going to be done on twitter. by tweeting. it's going to be done by talking. >> reporter: president trump returned from his florida resort to a feud in washington over the future of the dreamers and a government funding deadline. a bipartisan group of senators did reach agreement on a replacement for daca last week. >> we prepared a bill, a bipartisan bill, that hit all four elements the president asked for. >> reporter: and his president said he'd sign a bill brought to his desk. >> i'm not going to say, oh, gee, i want this, i want that. i'll be signing it. >> reporter: that's the deal the president rejected in that now infamous meeting where he referred to some caribbean and african countries as expletive holes. >> the exact word used by the president. >> reporter: mr. trump tweeted on monday that illinois democrat dick durbin totally misrepresented what was said in that meeting and that durbin blew daca. >> i'll stick with my original interpretation. >> reporter: durbin says the
7:13 am
device over immigration policy is the real problem. >> if the president will keep his word, as of last tuesday, if he'll move forward, endorse this bipartisan agreement, we can get this done this week. >> reporter: some democrats believe a government funding bill is the leverage they need to demand a compromise on dreamers. senate republicans need at least nine democratic votes to pass any measure to fund the government past this friday's deadline. republicans warn that if there is a government shutdown, democrats would get the blame. and privately, some democrats worry about that possibility. the best hope for some kind of bipartisan solution now appears to be, john, the talks that are quietly going on between the number one and number two republican in the house and senate but they'll have to come up with something pretty quickly. >> and they'll have to get the president to sign it, thank you. the president's homeland security secretary tell us immigrants in the daca program will need to follow the law. kirstjen nielsen is appearing
7:14 am
before the committee right now. she was in the impassioned white house meeting on daca. we asked the secretary about the meeting and the president's views on immigration. the president made a broad characterization when he talked about people who came from haiti and african countries versus people from norway. so why is he making broad characterizations about people who come from those countries when you're saying u.s. policy, trying to move away from broad characterizations and move towards people? >> i think the context of that conversation, there was so much covered in that meeting. but part of the conversation was really focused on this merit-based concept. so he had just met with the prime minister of norway. was very impressed with what she told him about successes that norway has experienced. so he was just using that as an example of a place that accepts immigrants, in part, based on mart. >> let me ask you about your testimony on tuesday. senator durbin who was in this oval office meeting about which there has been so much
7:15 am
discussion, is going to be there. what if he asks you whether you agree with his representation of the meeting? >> i have no problem repeating what i've said. i just don't -- i don't -- i don't -- that's not a word i remember being used. it was very impassioned. people on all sides feel very strongly about this issue, frankly, as well as they should. there was a lot of conversations happening at the same time. it's not a particular phrase that i heard. >> let me ask you about deferred action for childhood arrivals. there's a chance that might not get worked out based on the way things seem to be going. >> i hope it will. >> if it's not, what does the immigration customs and enforcement agency do with these kids who are here? >> it's not going to be a priority of the immigration and customs enforcement to prioritize their removal. i've said that before. that's not the policy of dhs. >> if this doesn't get worked out and i'm a dreamer, the way i'm supposed to read what you just said, is this is not going
7:16 am
to be a priority advice. >> if you are a daca that's compliant with your registration, meaning you haven't committed a crime and you, in fact, are registered, you're not priority for enforcement for i.c.e. should the program end. >> is that in peurpose truety? >> that means you cannot commit a crime and we will enforce the law. >> highlights of a new report showing who is being charged with terrorism and where they come from. that's ahead on "cbs this morning." millions of people across commute this morning after - getting slammed by the snow, freezing rain and ice too. the blast of winter caused slick roads, school cancellations and a lot of flight delays from memphis to houston. the storm is now moving east and will impact a huge area from atlanta to boston by tomorrow. the deep freeze is expected to follow the snow and send windchills plunging to single digits in parts of the south, oh, boy. >> the music world is paying tribute this morning to the talent of cranberries singer

7:32 am
president over comments in michael wolff's book that's called "fire and fury." earlier this month, the president claimed that steve bannon had lost his mind. britain's royal air force scrambled two fighter jets to intercept russian planes flying near the united kingdom's airspace. it said the two russian strategic bombers were not responding to air traffic control. they were intercepted over the north sea and never entered sovereign uk airspace. russia's defense ministry said the planes were training over neutral waters. the incident is the latest example of russian jets flying near britain. for the first time, the honda accord -- that's what i drive -- is named the north american car of the year. it was announced at the north american enter national auto show in detroit. the 10th-generation accord won judges over with its high fuel efficiency and pleasant driving

experience. the 2018 lincoln navigator was named truck of the year. the volvo xc60 was awarded suv of the year. >> congratulations. driving the car of the year. >> very proud. >> good taste in all things. a very serious story. a california mother reported her family -- her family, rather, reported her death two days after being diagnosed with the flu. this is a new sign of the danger of the epidemic. her family says that katy oxley thomas was a healthy marathon runner before she got sick. she was 40 years old. she had three children ranging in age from 8 to 17. she's one of 42 people in california under the age of 65 who have died from the flu this season. flu is widespread in every state except hawaii. the epidemic is so serious that the centers for disease control postponed a nuclear disaster response briefing today. instead, experts they say will be focusing on the flu. hawaii's false missile alert is drawing attention to problems in the national system that warns the public about emergencies. fear of a nuclear missile strike saturday sent many people in hawaii running for cover. officials blame the alarm on an employee at the state's

emergency management agency who pressed the wrong button. jan crawford is in washington outside the f.c.c. with why critics say the nation's warning network needs reforms. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the federal communications commission which has jurisdiction over these alerts which is promising a full investigation. the commission's chairman is worried that these kind of mistakes in the future could undermine the public's confidence in emergency alerts. as alerts were broadcast saturday on televisions and radios across hawaii -- >> the u.s. pacific command has detected a missile threat to hawaii. >> reporter: they also hit cell phones. >> this wasn't a tweeted message. this was the government alert system going off. >> reporter: in the digital era, the public's awareness and panic was almost instant. >> everyone was freaking out. everyone was on their phones like what do we do, where do we go? >> this isn't a joke. this isn't a drill. we need to go, so people started
7:35 am
scurrying around. >> reporter: while state officials blame human error, investigators are also looking at the wireless emergency alert system that sent the alarming message to cell phones. introduced in 2012, national, state, and local authorities have used the program to issue more than 30,000 messages across the country. not without scrutiny. during hurricane harvey, officials in texas couldn't target alerts to people in evacuation zones without also sending them to those unlikely to be affected. that difficulty in pinpointing messages has discouraged some safety officials from issuing alerts altogether. as wildfires raged in california last october, some people weren't notified because emergency workers feared spreading mass panic. retired admiral david simpson is the former chief of the fcc's public safety and homeland security bureau. >> the number-one complaint received at the fcc about
7:36 am
emergency alerts is that i was woken up at 2:00 in the morning for an alert that had nothing to do with me. >> reporter: in hawaii, it took 38 minutes before a second message confirming the false alarm was issued. something simpson says should happen within a minute or less. >> the ability to send out an immediate retraction needs to be practiced. it needs to be exercised so it's as second nature as sending the original alert. >> reporter: hawaii is going to requiring two people to send out these alerts instead of just one. here in washington the f.c.c. already had been looking for ways to improve the alert system. later this month the commission is going to consider an order that would enhance the accuracy of these alerts so it would reach a target audience within one tenth of a mile.

families are starting to move into what is being called the first solar-powered town. babcock ranch is a half mile southeast of florida. homes are being built for a projected 50,000 people. when the town is finished, it's supposed to produce more electricity than it consumes. manuel bojorquez has a unique view of the massive solar field powering the community. manuel, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. up high is really the best way to give you a sense of scale here. just take a look at this.
7:42 am
more than 300,000 solar panels over 440 acres. that's enough to power the town, and even some surrounding areas. it's operated by florida power and light on land donated by the developer of babcock ranch who believes it will serve as a model for sustainability. you're going to give us a spin? >> let's give it a try. >> reporter: all right. in the city of the future, people leave their car in the garage and take rides in self-driving shuttle buses. how far away are we from being able to do that? >> i think it's a lot sooner than i think people understand. it's much sooner. [ bell ] >> reporter: this autonomous vehicle hailed with an app is zero emotions. it's powered by electricity generated from the sun just like the street lamps, the buildings, and the lights we used for this interview. >> we want to be the most sustainable new town in the united states. >> reporter: kitson, a developer, wouldn't want it any

for this impasse. welcome, john, to this mid-january summary of bipartisanship president trump style. >> thanks. homeland security secretary kirstjen nielsen is testifying on capitol hill right now about a new dhs study. it shows at least 549 people were convicted in u.s. federal courts on international terrorism related charges between september 11th 2001 and the end of 2016. 73% of them were foreign born. 148 of those convicted had become naturalized u.s. citizens, another 147 were born in the u.s. secretary kneel sen spoke to us about the lessons from that study. you have a new report that has been created by the department of homeland security and the department of justice. what does the report say? >> i'll just start by telling you its very concerning. we need to be very clear who's coming into our country, make sure they're not a terrorist. the most important figure i
8:06 am
think from the report is that 73% of all those convicted of international related terrorism offenses over the last 15 years were foreign born, so that's quite a substantial percentage. >> so if you're concerned, is this clear and present danger? >> of course, absolutely. i think the president's been very clear. i think this underscores the need to not only implement the executive orders that he's issued over the past year but i feel very strongly about going to congress today during my hearing and work with them to close the loopholes that prevent us from removing known suspected terrorists and other criminals in the united states. >> what policy rises up out of these numbers? >> i think what we take directly away from the report we need to continue to enhance our screening and vetting. it also tells us we need to continually vet those who are here. we have examples unfortunately over the last decade of terrorist attacks from legal permanent residents and others that were naturalized. we need to continue up until the point they become a u.s. citizen

to make sure they haven't become radicalized. >> what do they of to do that they're not up to no good? >> it's checking against intelligence we gather. >> so should these people presume they're under surveillance? >> it would be -- it's a very natural part of becoming a citizen, up until the point that you're a citizen, we want to continue to make sure we understand who you are and why you're here. >> let's say a foreign nationals who are responsible for murders during the time period you've looked at here, how many foreign born nationals are responsible for terrorism deaths in america? >> terrorism deaths? i would have to get back to you. the number that we're looking at what we've used as a number that's related to international terrorism related charges, so that could be a death abroad, that could be a death here or an attack on a u.s. interest abroad or here. but they're all prosecuted in federal court so that's 73% number, that foreign born. >> reporter: in the history of america in this period, what's
8:08 am
caused more mayhem or more deaths, u.s. citizens or foreign born? >> i don't believe that i can give you that. i would say we're worried about both. >> reporter: isn't it wild little the case that it's more that are u.s. citizens when you think of the pulse nightclub shootings and -- >> some of them were naturalized, yes. some of them were legal permanent residents. >> reporter: and some were born in america? >> yes. >> reporter: in those cases, when you're born in america, those are people just killing more americans than foreign born? >> i've not ready to commit to that than because we have a lot of ongoing investigations and a lot of plots that we've obstructed but your point is right. we need to do more to prevent radicalization. the ininspiration of terrorism in this country. >> the secretary didn't answer whether american born or foreign born terrorists have caused more death. a report looks at the period between the 9/11 attacks and the end of 2015. it estimates that more than
8:09 am
three times as many people were killed in terrorist attacks by native born americans than foreign born individuals. >> that's a very interesting point to make. the study has limitations. what are they and what are the implications do you think? >> what the secretary's doing is saying we need more to do what we're doing. your report shows all the people that are being arrested and the focus and the time of limited attention and resources should be on the people who are causing the most mayhem and that's these radicalized americans and so that's where the real focus should be. it'll be a debate over priorities. that study we looked at over a 41 year perld the chance of an american being killed by a natural is one in 3.6 million per year. that's the numbers that the study will have to combat as people are saying how much money and time and attention should we pay to various parts of the homeland security threat. >> thank you. and tomorrow, former today show coanchor ann curry will

shape popular culture and our lives. morning. >> good morning. >> first, the controversy over this paul video. why did it take youtube nearly ten days to respond? >> you know, these are complicated problems. i don't work on this specific suv. i know the people that do and a lot of them have kids and they take these things very seriously. it's easy to say we should go back to a model where everything gets reviewed before we see it pore the first time. but it's become really hard when you have 400 hours of video that get uploaded every minute and culture is changing to quickly. these are tough problems. as we go forward, we have youtube taking on this challenge by a combination of human reviewing and trying to balance the enforcement of its rules and to enable the diversity and creativity that people so appreciate about it. >> what about users and parents who -- i asked my son about this. he said what youtube does is children. by which he meant he and his cousins are watching at an early age and they get hooked and they're off to the races and they're going to watch all the time. do we need to be paying more
8:35 am
attention to what youtube means for younger viewers? >> i mean, i think, of course, like we have a whole generation of people that are growing up with these new technologies across all different platforms. it's important that we think about the implications of them. i think the book really looks at the ways that we as viewers shape these platforms and by watching we are incentivizing and participating in the popularity of different things. i think that's going to be an interesting challenge that we have to think about not just now but in the coming decades. >> you have said, kevin, in the book that youtube is one of the most visited sites in in the world. most of us don't know how that works. that's true. it reflects who we haare and wh we care about. what's that picture? you go on there and see some really goofy stuff. >> it's true. this is the first time in the history of media that we've had incredible diversity of interests and passions being able to be reflected. when we watch youtube, we have communities that form around all
8:36 am
different kinds of things that allow beauty and gaming to become huge and some things where you have small passionate people na connect around the things that they love. it shows how today we have entered this time in which individuals play a role in shaping popular culture in a way that was never really popular before. >> your book was hard foe me to read because i would read and then have to go and look up the video. have you heard the about the rainbow video? the beauty of the rainbow video is there's nobody in it. >> that's right. >> whoa. that's a cool rainbow. all the way. double rainbow. oh, my god. it's a double rainbow. >> i wasn't sure what i was doing while he was looking at the rainbow, but you said the beauty of that is we experience what he's experiencing. and that's the beauty of youtube. >> that's true. the double rainbow is one of my all-time favorite. it's years ago, but it sort of

fulfilled by. that's the different. it's not what here is what we want you to see, but here is what you want to see reflected back to you. >> kevin, thanks. videocracy is on sale next tuesday. actor john lithgo says being on stage is, quote, hite like a drug. ahead, how he the rain came and went while most of you were sleeping it was a week overnight and now we are left with patchy fog this morning and not much measurable rain at all. san jose did not get any measurable rain. san francisco got a few hundredths of an inch. not above two tents. they seem to be the winner. high surf advisory until 4:00 today. we have breaks expected at 20 feet. more waves on the way. thursday and friday with the next-door. cbs eye on the community...
