i'm norah o'donnell with gayle king and john dickerson. we're following breaking news of a shooting outside the headquarters of the national security agency. one of the key u.s. intelligence facilities. a law enforcement source says an suv apparently tried to ram a security gate this morning at a secure nsa entrance at fort meade, maryland, northeast of washington. >> and you can see the bullet holes in the vehicle's with windshield. three people were injured but no one was hurt by the gunfire. a suspect is in custody. a top white house adviser tells cbs news the west wing is, quote, coming apart at seams in the fallout from staff secretary rob porter's resignation. fbi director christopher wray testified to congress yesterday that porter's security check was finished before allegations of domestic abuse forced porter to leave. white house officials had said the process was still ongoing. porter denies the allegations. according to wray the fbi submitted a partial report last month and finished its
8:03 am
background investigation in late july. wray said the bureau followed up on additional information in november after a request. the fbi closed porter's file last month. >> without press secretary sarah sanders said career officials were aware of issues back in november but she does insist that top advisors were not notified about the extent of those allegations until just last week. sanders says the white house personnel security office received the fbi's information but did not make a recommendation to senior staff about his security clearance. >> cbs news senior national security analyst fran townsend spent 13 years working in the justice department and was homeland security adviser to president george w. bush. good morning. >> good morning. >> you've been through the process yourself. >> i have. >> many times. how unusual is it to have someone with repeated interim security clearances with access to this top secret security? >> it's not clear he had access to top secrets. he would have had an interim
8:04 am
secret clearance first. he worked on capitol hill and probably been through the security vet proceediting proce. given his prior government experience he was still in an interim security clearance position right. the staff secretary job, normally this is moving paper around, it's not, for example, the president's daily intelligence brief comes in with the director of the cia. the staff secretary is not touching the most sensitive secrets. but still, the notion that given rob porter's prior government experience, you would be surprised that he was still on ar interim state. if you never served in government that's more understandable it would take longer to get you through the process, but it's clear that this was -- there were problems in the investigation, people were aware going back. >> the fbi director made clear they have alerted the white house many times throughout the past year. they even closed the file in january. does it pass the smell test that either a deputy chief of staff or the chief of staff wouldn't know about these problems? >> it is not possible to me. look, i think sarah sanders from
8:05 am
the podium is relying on -- there's this career staff in the white house that determines the security clearances but those career people, norah, they report to political people. in this case that office is overseen by the deputy chief of staff, joe hagan, who sits next to john kelly. and they would have alerted joe that there were problems in this investigation. by the way, when the fbi completed it in july and the white house asked additional questions, the white house would not have gone back to the fbi to ask additional questions without clearance from leadership in the white house. >> in other words, if it had not risen to something higher than just kind of career staff. >> that's right. and the fbi, john, didn't say they had completed it without running to ground these domestic abuse allegations. that was resolved in july. now whatever the white house asked between july and november, fine, but those domestic abuse allegations were completed and looked into to the satisfaction of the fbi by july. >> what's the big question that you have? >> i think you want to know how many outstanding interim
8:06 am
clearances are there now into the second year of the administration. in fairness, i will tell you, this administration brought in more people who had never served in government and those take longer because typically they served in government before and come back in, you just have to update your clearance and so -- but i think we need to know. they do have access to sort of all the foreign policy discussions and the intelligence before those discussions. >> fran townsend, always good to have your expertise. thank you. epa administrator scott pruitt is hearing criticism and new information on one of his trips. a visit to italy in june for meetings at the vatican cost $43,000. most of that paid for on military jet from cincinnati to new york so pruitt could make his flight to rome. >> pruitt's round-trip business trip ticket cost another $7,000. sources say he returned to the u.s. on an emirates flight, government employees including cabinet members are usually required to fly on u.s.

>> the only thing predictable about flu is it's unpredictable. in an average year flu kills tens of thousands of americans and sends hundreds of thousands to the hospital. it's not the common cold. it's a serious illness that can be deadly particularly for people who are older, weakened immune systems, health problems or other challenges. what we've known for some time is that this year's particular strain, something known as h3n2, is harder on old people and kids. and unfortunately, this year's vaccine doesn't appear to be working as well as we would like. >> that suggests the cdc is making this judgment in the ab ceps of information. that's not just true. you can look at australia and see the strain developing there, and other places around the world, doesn't that give you some predictability. >> absolutely. there's a great global collaboration to track flu as it moves around the world so we can predict which vaccine strains to put into our vaccine and how bad the year is going to be. >> what about the japanese drugmaker that says they have this pill that all of a sudden

flu season and a few more weeks or months until the flu season recedes for this year. >> but in this acute moment we know what you're supposed to do right now but in planning for maybe the next time this happens what better and more can be done to maybe not get to an acute situation? >> in a long term we need a universal flu vaccine but that may be a decade or two away. things we can do in the interim to figure out which vaccines work better, cell based vaccines, high dose, we don't know if any of those are better, but we should rigorously study that to know and have the best products for as many people as can get them. >> more money for cdc? >> absolutely. i'm concerned that the administration proposed a 20% cut in the cdc's budget this week. that would bring cdc's budget back to nearly 15, 20 years ago when finding nemo was released. this is not the way to protect americans. it risks more cancer, more outbreaks, less safe americans. >> cutting the budget when you need it now more than ever.
