lindsey vonn slips on the slopes and american men miss their mark on the ice. it's a multimillion dollar business with its own eye on the olympic games. we will go inside the world of e sports and the participants who say they are not playing around. we begin with a look at today's eye opener, your world in 90 seconds. >> alleges that they want to promote discord and undermine public confidence in democracy. in democracy. >> the president tweeted, quote, the trump campaign did nothing wrong. there was no collusion. >> he's engaged some magical thinking here that this exonerates him. nothing of the kind. >> they failed to follow protocol following information on the florida shooter. >> we truly regret the additional pain this has caused. >> chief of staff john kelly is making big changes with how

employees obtain security clearance. >> it's going require the doj and fbi to do more. >> president trump is in florida giving his condolences to victims at the high school massacre. >> a powerful earthquake strikes mexico. >> all that -- >> maybe a preview of the dunk. >> -- and all that matters. >> it's the reason we love the olympics. he came in last, still smiling. he was greeted by a group of competitors. >> -- on "cbs this morning: saturday." >> good news. robert moouler indicted 13 russian nationals. >> they posed as sociallyive americans. >> they went to great lengths to appear like they were regular

americans. they bought space on american servers, used american slang, they gained 50 pounds. >> and welcome to the weekend everyone. i'm anthony mason. welcome. >> great to be here glmpt is we begin with the investigation of special counsel robert mueller on election tampering which has led to the first indictments of russian nationals. more than a dozen are charged with conspiracy to tamper with the election process in an effort to undermine confidence. there is no allegation that anyone in the trump campaign was knowingly involved. president trump was briefed on the matter friday afternoon. the president ignored shouted questions from reporters before he left washington for a weekend at his resort. >> reporter: good morning. the russia investigation was

bolstered by the deputy attorney general announcing in details charges against russian nationals and russian companies. with national security under threat president trump chose to comment on his personal vindication. >> the defendants allegedly conducted what they called information warfare against the united states. >> reporter: deputy attorney general said russian nationals using stolen identities posing as politically active americans had a clear and consistent goal. to promote discord in the united states and undermine public confidence in democracy. >> reporter: prosecutors say the operation began in 2014 and was run in this building. according to the indictment 13 russian nationals and three rulsh companies with a budget of more than $1.2 million per month made hundreds of fake social

media profiles posting attacks on hillary clinton while appl d applauding bernie sanders and then candidate donald trump. rosenstein and fbi director previously briefed president trump on this indictment. in a statement the white house said there was no collusion between the trump campaign and russia noting the outcome of the election was not changed or effected. court documents show russian operatives were told to quote use any opportunity to criticize hillary clinton and the rest except sanders and trump. we support them. >> that was a democrat hoax. it was an excuse for losing the election. president trump repeatedly calls the special counsel's probe a hoax. are investigators believe the russian agenda was also aimed to suppress minority turnout. an instagram message from a fake group discouraged voting.

we cannot resort to the lesser of two devils then we would be better off not voting at all. rosenstein emphasized that this report claims no american knowingly played any role. >> they made it appear that they were ordinary american political activists. >> reporter: republican house speaker paul ryan says washington needs to follow the facts in the wake of the charges while democratic leaders say this is more proof president trump needs to implement the sanctions against russia approved by congress. >> thanks. here to discuss more on the indictments is cbs news justice reporter in our washington bureau. >> good morning. >> what can you tell us about some of the principles named in this indictment? >> let's start with the russian businessman with close ties to vladimir putin. according to court documents he

helped to fund the internet research agency that helped launch. the others are accused of working for that agency to effectively operate as a troll farm. these were people who spoke english well enough to be credible as they pumped out the messages on social media. we also know that some defends travelled here to the united states to collect jeintelligenc and then to launch events. >> otherwise known as putin's chef does have close ties to putin. the kremlin and the russian government has not been implicated. there is no wrong doing alleged. where does that leave the investigation going forward? >> this lays out a way to possibly charge folks here in the united states. the documents specifically say that the russians worked with americans here on the ground. so the question for robert

mueller is whether or not the americans knew who they were working with and what the russians were up to. if you knowingly work with the russians to sway votes or to put on any of these events you could be charged with conspiracy. >> tell us who richard pineta was. he pled guilty to selling bank accounts. >> he is a self-described digital marketing strategist. according to court documents he helps provide documents to people to get around security features or identification requirements for e bay or amazon. according to court documents he purchased stolen banking information before selling it to clients. while his lawyers say he had no knowledge of who he was working with or what they were up to, clearly selling other people's personal information is a crime. >> we are learning about more charges this morning against paul manafort. what are they? >> it is new possible charges.

new evidence was revealed in a court filing that revealed they have new evidence that paul manafort may have committed bank fraud in addition to other charges. he allegedly used doctored profit and loss statements overstating how much money he was being paid as a consultant. this has been a consistent theme throughout the manafort prosecution. the reason he doesn't have an official bail agreement is because the court can't figure out how much he is worth. if you look at the documents he signed estimates of net worth varied so greatly. it is unclear whether or not special counsel would use this new evidence to pursue other charges. they have a lot of time because this trial is not expected to start until the fall. >> it is stunning to think there are four trump associates who have been charged. fbi director christopher

wray is under fire for his agency's handling of suspected florida shooter nikolas cruz. the fbi revealed it did not investigate a warning of the attack. last night president trump visited with law enforcement officers who responded to the shooting. he was joined by rick scott who called for wray to resign. mr. trump did not discuss wray's future or the fbi. instead he praised the first responders. >> the president visited a south florida hospital where some victims are being treated. president trump is spending the holiday weekend at his florida resort about 40 miles from parkland. >> reporter: good morning. the fbi says it will investigate how it mishandled that tip which the agency says came from

someone woo who was close to th shooting suspect. 5 1/2 weeks before cruz allegedly gunned down 17 people at stoneman douglas high the fbi said it received a tip about the gun ownership, desire to kill people and the potential of him conducting a school shooting. the tip did not get passed on to the miami field office for follow up. florida governor rick scott is calling for fbi director christopher wray to resign. miami fbi agent in charge. >> what would you say to people who believe fbi missed a chance? >> the potential of the fbi to miss something is always there. we will be looking into where and how if the protocol broke down and we will come back stronger than we ever were before. >> reporter: it was the second time the fbi received a tip. the other in november about a youtube comment.

it said i'm going to be a professional school shooter. the agency said it could not determine where it came from. after wednesday's shooting surveillance video from 3:01 p.m. when the fbi says cruz walked into a mcdonald's restaurant appears to show his calm demeanor. sheriff's records revealed 20 calls for service during the past few years over disturbances involving cruz and his younger brother. sheriffs responding to a call were met by cruz's mother and a therapist who said he suffered from mental illness. on top of that he had mentioned in the past that he would like to purchase a firearm. as the investigation unfolds the first funeral was held yesterday for 14-year-old alissa. >> i am a father. i have kids. this hit very close to home. >> reporter: three days after the shooting happened and you can see this remains an active

crime scene. school officials say one of the buildings behind me will eventually be torn down. >> three days later and our hearts still ache for those families. thank you. white house chief of staff john kelly has ordered major changes in how the white house clears staff members to gain access to top secret information. that follows revelations that former staff secretary had an interim security clearance despite allegations of domestic violence by his two ex-wives. kelly acknowledged that the administration must do better. he also said that the fbi and the justice department need to provide more timely updates on background investigations. >> for more we turn to national correspondent for the "washington post." we heard about the legal ramifications of this indictment of 13 russian nationals. what are the political ramifications? >> it's a good question.

it is sort of hard to say in part because we should remember this is only one part of what the russians are suspected to have done during the 2016 election. there was the hacking of the democratic national committee and campaign chairman for hillary clinton. that isn't covered by the indictment that came out yesterday. we don't yet have a full picture of what happened in 2016. this does reveal that any assurances presented by president trump that this was a hoax are not the case. this is pretty clear evidence that something happened there. we don't yet know what the long term fallout is because we don't have while the president and republicans insist that there was no collusion we don't know with certainty. there isn't evidence yet that there was the collusion that people think may have happened. >> yet the president tweeted no collusion yesterday. does this make it that much more difficult for the president if he wanted to to fire bob mueller?

>> yes. it's not clear how president trump is going to react to the revelations that came out yesterday. it's not clear what he wants to do with this moving forward. there are indications that he feels that this was a vindication so he may therefore not want to fire the special counsel in a way that he might have two weeks ago. we don't know what is going to come out. he is still supposed to speak with bob mueller's team. we need to negotiate. they need to get information from him which may change the calculus. i think the president see yesterday as being vin vindicat >> yet again we have an indictment or action by mueller which we had no forewarning about, no leaks on this whatsoever. >> it's remarkable. this is washington, d.c. you get leaks on everything before breakfast.

bob mueller is the former director of the fbi. this guy certainly knows how to work washington. i think that it is a testament to his team that we haven't had these leaks because it suggests that they are keeping their heads down and just pushing forward on their work. >> it is still stunning after we hear of the indictments against 13 russian nationals that the president chose not to implement the sanctions that were asked by congress. some people were reading into rob rosenstein going out and issuing the statement that he did yesterday saying it implies a warning not only for russia but is also speaking to the president. is that reading too much into it? >> it is a good question. he was the one that gave the briefing because attorney general jeff sessions had recused himself from anything regarding the russia investigation. i think there will be a lot of political pressure ondent trump. his line all along has been this

russia thing is a hoax. nothing happened here. it is impossible for him to say that at this point. he basically acknowledged something had happened. there will be more political pressure on him to take action. we have seen that his party hasn't tried to twist his arm on things like this. >> i want to talk about immigration. senate tried and failed to come up with a compromise for the dreamers. time is running out. is there still a chance here? >> there is always a chance. congress likes to wait until the 11th hour to do something. there doesn't seem to be political will to get something done that will formalize the protections that these daca recipients currently enjoy. it doesn't seem to be the will on capitol hill to do something and isn't clear president trump will be able to coral them to get something done. this morning millions of people in mexrico are on edge following friday's prolonged and

powerful earthquake. minor damage was reported in buildings. power was knocked out. electric lights and wires can be seen shaking as the 7.2 quake struck. two people were killed when a helicopter carrying officials crashed. the u.s. geological survey says the quake was not in the after shock zone from a more powerful and deadly quake last accesepte. could the face of america's winter team win gold? dana jacobson is in pyeongchang, south korea with the answers as the olympics start their second week. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. lindsey vonn's eight-year wait to return to olympic skiing action is over. it was not the return she was hoping for. super-g her first competition

know your city has struggled for years. why base income? >> the idea is almost as old as the republican. thomas payne was called for it. dr. king. even richard nixon. the idea is especially in california. californians can't handle a $40 emergency. a group called the economic security project was looking for a city to fund. given the challenges and also gifrps the resilience, i thought it would be a good fit for us that you know the first stop of the criticism is give people money, they won't work, it doesn't incentivize them, it's just a welfare program. >> they found something

different. they found $4,000 to $6,000 a year did good things for folks. drug use went down. there was no labor market impact. >> you've got a wide span of supporters, everyone from bernie sanders and elon musk. >> we had a program director. in the next couple of months she'll bo working with the community, figuring out criteria selection and hopefully by the time school starts, we're starting. >> what are some of the criteria if you get the basic income. what are some of the things you put in the program to avoid some of the criticism? >> the idea o is to be as universal as possible. in the second ten net will be no strings attached. that we trust that people are smart and resilient to make the best decision for them and their families with the money.

store and buy an ar-15, how quick is the process? how quickly could i get one? >> you would fill this form out. if you're a law-abiding citizen, we can sell you that gun. >> how long would the process take? >> the whole process would take 15 minutes. > and i could walk out. >> if you have a conceal license. >> reporter: more than a thousand people created a sea of candlelight thursday night honoring the victims. glenn and angela goad were there. their 14-year-old daughter goes to the school. the registered republicans say this incident has changed their view on guns. >> i have friends who are avid hunters and gunmen and friends who are probably like me, never owned a gun. >> they want assault rifles banned and more security and mental health funding for schools. >> i'm embarrassed as a father

filed. they're focused a secret effort cared out on social media, aimed at mainly helping then candidate donald trump, defeating hillary clinton. just this week director of national intelligence dan coats warned the senate intel jet committee that the u.s. is still under attack by russian hackers just as the 2018 elections season is gearing up. so what can we do with primary elections just a few weeks away? we're joined by frank cilluffo, director of the senn for for cyber and homeland security at the george washington university and michael waldman, president of the brennan center for justice at new york university school of law. welcome to you both. what does it tell you about the scope of mueller's investigation and how far the russians have gone? >> firstly if you read the indictment itself, it reads like a novel. it's fascinating in terms of the

details it provides, but i think most importantly it underscores that the scale and scope is significant here. this isn't a onesy and twosies operation. it's about equal what campaigns themselves were spending and a lot of people, 80 full-time employees devoted to this. so this wasn't a small operation. it was a major russian intelligence operation. and what they refer to as an information warfare campaign aimed at the united states, aimed at not only the elections but the democracies themselves. >> michael, last year the federal government designated the election system as critical infrastructure, but a lot of that infrastructure is outdated. just how vulnerable are we? >> you're exactly right. we have in many respect as ramshackle election system run by counties and states all over. much of the equipment is old, many of the systems are old, and not really ready to withstand a sustain and focused attack like

this. we now know how vulnerable we are. the question i think patriotic responses should not be to say, i didn't do it, but what can we do to make sure it doesn't happen again. >> frank, doesn't it really start with the president acknowledging it? even h.r. mcmaster said it's beyond dispute that russia meddled in our elections. we're still playing catchup. we're months away from the midterms. they got detailed information about the u.s. voters and the voting system. what can the president do now? >> i mean all of the president's national security leadership has underscored the same thing. i mean when they went around, all the intelligence heads at the senate intelligence hearing this past week, they all said yes, yes, yes, and yes. i think clearly this is -- this is more evidence in terms of details as to what, in fact, occurred. and, yes, i think the fact that russia meddled with our

elections, we've known that for quite some time but you're starting to see the political ramifications come into play. general mcmaster, but it's not only general mcmaster. it's the entire intelligence community. >> back to this question of vulnerability, michael, the center for american progress gave a report card to all the states on sort of their election preparedne preparedness, security preparedness, and not one state got an "a." what can we do? what should we be doing at this point? >> first of all, states need to buy new vote machines. they're out of date. they're using windows 2000. you can't get security patches for these old systems. so there's new vote machines and steps to harden and strengthen the computerized databases of voter registration files. these are things that can be done. that i require money and they require will, and unfortunately states need to help and congress hasn't even moved at all so far

on bringing that kind of help to these elections. >> and, frank, what we heard from rod rosenstein, the intent was to show discord in our electoral system. now the focus is on republicans and russians helping donald trump. but that's not necessarily the case going forwarding correct. >> exactly. if you look back, the technology changes, human nature remains consistent. what we've seen play out with the meddling of the elections we've actually seen in the physical world for years. it was selling dysinformation, cyberive measures. so active measure campaigns go back to years. there was a rumor for years that cia was behind cha. this was a physical example. here you're starting to see how technoloy can expand that reach exponentially. but it's ultimately about

driving wedges, selling distrust and having us point fingers at one another. putin must be sitting there laughing. >> do you think the indictments scare up the russians in any way? >> i think they know people are watching, but so far they haven't seen many consequences. they're not going to in all likelihood be extradited. the consequences that would come would be when we were attacked after 9/11 or pearl harbor, we strengthen our defenses so it doesn't happen again. bipartisan, that would help with this. people need to take it really seriously. we can't have elections if people don't trust the integrity and accuracy of the elections, and that's what we're facing right now. >> and the sanctions that were passed by the bipartisan fashion were also. we'll see if the president will do something now. thank you so much, gentlemen. >> thank you. well, the quest for a cure for a devastating illness. up next in our morning rounds,

this morning a special edition of our "morning rounds," medical news. alzheimer's disease is a growing health crisis. more than 5 million americans are estimated to have it and that number could top it, 15 million by 2050. >> british neuroscientist joseph jebelli has studied alzheimer's's throughout his career. welcome. >> thank you. >> what motivated you to go on this very personal journey. >> i first became interested when i saw it in my grandfather.

when i was a teenager, he was going through it. i wanted answers. what is this disease, what is happening to him and how can we stop it. that's how i sort of became interested in the field. i then decided to write the book because i wanted to give the public an accessful account of where we are in the research, what the history of the research is and how we got to where we are and ultimately where we are. >> by 2050 it's going to overtake cancer as the leading cause of death. what is the difference between alzheimer's and dementia? >> sure. so dementia just describes a set of symptoms that you see of a patient. memory loss, navigational loss, confusion, problems in general, i thinking abilities. a good way to think of it, it's like saying if you say someone has dementia, it oohs like saying they have cancer without

identifying what type of cancer. alzheimer's is a type of dementia. >> how much has the attitude toward the disease change oefrd the years? >> massively. as i documented in the book we've gone from fair and indifferent to understanding and hope. when it was described in 1986 he was essentially ignored by his peers because at the time the idea of linking a biological manifestation in the brain to a behavioral manifestation, it was alien. it's fairly common now. it's taken a long time to wake up to this problem. it was rediscovered by amazing scientists. since then we've sort of had a reawakening of what alzheimer's is and understands that it's a disease process and something we yield to science and reason in the same way cancer will. >> when you talk about early warning signs, you gave examples

of somebody misplacing their keys and being alarmed. you say that's not what should alarm you. what should alarm you is if you don't remember what keys are for. >> forgetting where your car keys are and glasses are is normal. everybody does that. you weren't paying attentioning you're tired. it's when you find them and think, what are these for, and confusion sets in. that's something more sinister and you should consider seeing a doctor about. >> and loss of mobility is an early sign too. >> lot of . that's actually one of the first signs maybe before memory signs itself. loss of navigation, getting lost. >> you've talked about how we've moved from fear toward hope. how close are we to a break point? >> sure. it's one i can describe to you because i'm a natural optimist, between 10 to 20 years that we'll have an effective treatment. what we really need do is push

the illness back. the cure for alzheimer's is not what many people think. it will be a treatment that pushes it back. if we can push it back by a year, there will be 9 million cases by 2030. if we push it back half, that would be half of those affected by alzheimer's disease. we need to push it back, change the course of the disease itself so a victim never has to experience any of the symptoms of the disease. >> and by pushing it back, you mean they will succumb to something else other than alzheimer's. >> yes. die naturally of old age. won't have to go through this devastating process, you know, in their final years. >> what are we talking about? a vaccine? a cure? a treatment? will this be a chronic treatment the way we treat diabetes? >> yes. it's seeming more and more now it's a treatment that will have to be given very early. it's a disease process that evolves over decades at a time. it starts 10 or 20 years before you see any symptoms. so doctors are looking for these

very early telltale signs like spinal fluid, the blood, maybe the patient something at that point to divert the disease entirely. >> quickly. you went to iceland, colombia, and india to research this. what did you learn there? >> i did travel far and wide. i learned as a natural scientisting you should leave no stone unturned. who would have thought there were people in iceland who are protected from it. who would have thought there are groups of columbia who have early on set alzheimer's who are helping shed light on the course of alzheimer's. so we really do need to widen the net in search of a cure because this is a much more complicated disease than we previously thought. so i think as a scientist these what we took away from it. >> the fight against alzheimer's. thanks for being with us. he's 43 years old and never

skied until last year and he's from a place where there is no snow. so what happened when he competed in the olympics? his story ahead. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday."
