7:04 am
without a secretary of state, remember, rex tillerson fired just over two weeks ago and with one national security adviser on the way out, the successor on his way in, president trump yesterday began to improvise about syria and in so doing calving the state department and pentagon off guard, leaving advisers in both places wondering what the president meant and what it might mean going forward to u.s. military action against isis. >> we'll be coming out of syria, like, very soon. >> reporter: speaking in ohio in what was billed as a speech about infrastructure, president trump repeatedly veered off script, appearing to make an announcement about pulling out of syria roughly 2,000 u.s. troops on the ground. >> let the other people take care of it now. >> reporter: as a candidate and president, mr. trump vowed never to make such statements. >> we should have never made such a sudden withdrawal on a timetable advertised to our enemies. we no longer tell our enemies our plans.
7:05 am
>> reporter: state department officials said they were up aware of any change in policy. >> i have not seen the president's comments myself. i can say that as a general matter, this administration looks to other countries to help out. >> reporter: the president's comments contradict u.s. officials who tell cbs news the administration has yet to present a time line for the u.s. to exit syria. one official said leaving within six months cannot be done, quote, responsibly. >> that's why i made some changes. >> reporter: the president also referenced the latest white house staff shake-up. ouster of veterans affair secretary david shulkin. >> because i wasn't happy with the speed with which our veterans were taken care of. >> reporter: mr. trump is dealing with a shrinking inner circle in recent days. he lost his longest serving and most trusted political aide hope hicks who left her post as white house communications director just yesterday. joining a list of more than two dozen officials to part ways with the trump administration. the defense secretary james mattis and the chairman of the
7:06 am
joint chiefs of staff general james dunnford met for the very first time yesterday with incoming national security adviser john bolton. afterward, mattis was overheard on camera saying to bolton, i've heard you were actually the devil incarnate and i wanted to meet you. bolton laughed. >> yikes. thank you very much, major. in a new signal to the west, russia just released video of this test launch of a new intercontinental ballistic missile called satan 2 by nato. it's capable of carrying 10 to 15 warhead. the second test of the missile since december. in moscow, the american ambassador to russia's protesting the country one to one response in the exuls of diplomats over the poisoning of a former russian spy. russia has ordered 60 embassy staff out of the country and will close the american consulate. >> that follows the u.s. expulsion of 60 russians. part of a worldwide effort to
7:07 am
condemn the kremlin for the nerve agent attack on sergei skripal and his daughter in england. charlie d'agata is in moscow, charlie, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the kremlin this morning said they weren't the ones to initiate a diplomatic war. they were forced to take retaliatory steps in response to what they called hostile illegal actions by washington. the kremlin has so far left little room for compromise. vladimir putin has given those 60 u.s. diplomats a week to pack their bags and get out. the retaliation exceeded tit-for-tat. shutting down the u.s. consulate in st. petersburg is a much bigger deal than closing the russian consulate in seattle. it's not only far larger, it was the first u.s. mission opened here. the nerve agent attack against a former russian spy turned the streets of salisbury england into a toxic crime scene that has since triggered the worst diplomatic crisis since the cold
7:08 am
war. president trump avoided any mention of the poisoning when he congratulated president putin on his election victory. which made the hard-line international reaction more surprising. >> there's been enough there not only to convince the united states but about 25 other countries that have taken similar actions that there's enough evidence to believe that the russian state was behind this action in salisbury. >> reporter: actually 28 countries in all that have expelled more than 150 russian diplomats since the attack. the russians vehemently deny any involvement and insist the backlash is nothing more than a washington orchestrated bullying campaign over its allies. you don't believe there's a level of distrust against russia? >> i think that this is what is the main goal of the united states and great britain, to make russia be regarded on the world stage, international stage, like, you know, a
7:09 am
hooligan. >> reporter: there's some good news to report about the daughter of the poisoned spy. doctors say her condition is improving. that too is an issue. the russians are demanding that the british government allow them to see her, saying she is a russian citizen. norah. >> all right, charlie d'agata in moscow, thank you. senior foreign affairs correspondent and face the nation moderator margaret brennan is with us from washington. good morning. you've seen of course what the state department has said. do you think they'll be further retaliation? >> yes, the uk and the united states insists that the expulsions of these russian nationals is not the only kind of retaliation. they're talking about sanctions. they're talking about travel restrictions. and even cyber actions. and all of this sort of unified response seemed to have taken moscow by surprise because in the past you haven't seen all of these western countries move in solidarity to kick out these so-called diplomats.
7:10 am
senior uk official i spoke with said this chemical attack is part of an assassination program that was authorized by vladimir putin and that is why you are seeing such a strong response. >> margaret what sort of impact will this move by russia have on u.s. operations in russia? >> well, practically speaking, the state department says it's going to force the layoffs of local hires, local staff. it's going to slow down operations so it might take longer to get a visa improved. it might also impact the number of americans who are able to work under diplomatic cover. that's some impact on our espionage activity. remember, there are already more than 700 staff that have been cut over the past six months due to past russian caps on our personnel in that country. there already have been those impacts. the trump administration is emphasizing its own decision this week to kick out 60 russianings is far more significant because they say the fbi identified these particular individuals as undeclared
7:11 am
russian intelligence efforts. they think they're kicking out a covert network. >> it's been reported, as you know, that donald trump said to vladimir putin, listen if you want an arms race, we can go there. what's the state of the relationship between these two? >> well, look, the phone calls may be friendly and congratulatory, but the foreign policy's anything about. and that recent icbm test you were just showing pictures of emphasizes where we are in the relationship. the u.s. has been accusing russia of going back to the obama administration, of cheating on nuclear arms control agreement, particularly this imf treaty, basically developing these kind of missiles that they had promised not to do. in response, the trump administration says they're going to start researching these kinds of missile developments as well, breaking out of that sort of cap we had on the nuclear arms race. but when you look at the national security team of the trump administration, they constantly signal to our allies around the world, don't listen
7:12 am
so much to what the president's saying, look at what we're doing, and that's pretty significant to have national security officials say something like that. look at what we're doing in ukraine, look at what we're doing with these ex-pullings, don't worry about the phone calls. >> margaret, thank you. sunday, margaret will talk with senator tim scott, trey gowdy, former presidential candidate bernie sanders and the u.n. high commissioner for refugees on "face the nation" sunday here on cbs. a federal judge says stormy daniels' lawyer cannot question president trump under oath about her agreement not to mention that she allegedly had sex with mr. trump in 2006. the judge ruled the request for a presidential deposition is premature at this point in the case. paula reid's at the white house. paula, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this is certain l a victory for the president. but this case is not over yet. the judge says he just believes that daniels' attorneys are moving too fast. the judge pointed out the fact
7:13 am
that the president and his tale, they haven't even had a chance to respond to the accusations about the payment cohen made to daniels. without any formal response from the other side, the judge said look, it's too early to talk about compelling the president to be deposed. but the next goal for the president and his team is trying to force this case into private arbitration rather than letting it play out in federal court where everything is a public record. but daniels' attorney avenatti, he seems optimistic. he tweeted that the order does not, quote, bode well for the defendants and suggest that there is a strong likelihood the court will ultimately agree with his client." but cohen's attorney called the decision sound and says he believes the judge's future decisions will also side with the president. >> all right, paula, thank you. lawyers for the family of stephon clark tell cbs news they plan to file a federal lawsuit as soon as today over his death in a police shooting. he was unarmed when two officers
7:14 am
killed him on march 18th. hundreds attended the 22-year-old's funeral yesterday. and protesters again took to the streets. jamie yuccas is in sacramento. >> reporter: the family says they will hold a press conference here at south christian center where they'll release findings from an independent autopsy. community leaders are asking for peace and reconciliation. after laying clark's body to rest yesterday. >> stephon is going to live for generations to generations to generations. >> reporter: an emotional stevante clark kisses his brother's casket. before leading the congregation in the chant "i am stephon clark." >> i am. i am. >> reporter: police shot at clark 20 times in his grandmother's backyard. believing the cell phone he was holding was a gun. the reverend al sharpton criticized the white house for calling the shooting a local
7:15 am
matter. >> no, this is not a local matter. they've been kill young black men all over the country. >> stephon clark did not choose violence that night. >> reporter: after the funeral, clark family attorney ben crump called for peace. >> we must choose nonviolence to make sure that we protest in the most productive way possible. >> reporter: black lives matter protesters blocked intersections as they marched through downtown sacramento. they did not target the nba stadium where the kings were playing as they have twice before. outside the arena, stevante clark was seen shaking hands with police. the kings announced wednesday they will partner with black lives matter to fund youth programs and bring transformational change to the city's black community. is that a big deal, to have a pro sports team -- >> my god, that's huge. a lot of people keep asking why did you go shut down the golden 1 center? that's why.
7:16 am
and look at what happened. so protest worked. >> reporter: tonight, kings players are set to attend a youth forum for healing. hundreds are expected to attend. >> thanks, jamie. a judge ruled coffee shops must serve coffee with a cancer warning in california. the judge said yesterday that chains like starbucks and whole foods must post signs telling people about a possible cancer causing chemical in their coffee. the chemical, called acrylamide, is produced in the roasting process. anna werner is here. you're trying to ruin my morning. >> keep drinking the coffee. good morning. the lawsuit was filed under california's prop 65. it requires businesses to notify consumers of exposure to cancer causing chemicals. now, while the coffee industry has long claimed the level of
7:17 am
acrylamide is dangerous, but it poses no risk. the battle brewing for years. on thursday, starbucks and other retailers were roasted. some 90 retailers named in the suit will now be required to post warnings that a chemical found in coffee may cause cancer. acrylamide is formed naturally when coffee is brewed. in studies, high doses have caused cancer in mice. >> it's kind of difficult to know where the line should be drawn. >> reporter: california law professor marsha cohen says time will tell how this ruling will impact coffee retailers. >> the real question is whether a year from now fewer people will have started their morning at a coffee shop in california. >> reporter: the nonprofit group that filed the lawsuit said it's grateful for the ruling, adding it's hopeful that the coffee industry will now agree to reduce acrylamide levels.
7:18 am
>> i'll just have two espressos instead of four to six. >> reporter: cancer warnings are already posted. but some believe warnings about coffee mean prop 65 has gone too far. >> i believe in transparency -- >> reporter: cbs news medical contributor dr. david agus says coffee in moderation has been shown to potentially decrease the risk of certain cancers. >> you put a bold declaration, x may cause cancer when there isn't data to that effect in humans. to me, it causes panic rather than inform knowledge. >> reporter: well, the national coffee association says the lawsuit makes a mockery of prop 65, confuses consumers and doesn't improve public health. defendants can appeal the judge's decision. civil penalties for coffee retailers still need to be set. and the penalties could be in the millions, maybe. we'll see. some coffee companies settled out. some sellers of coffee. rarely do we get to do a story

adriana diaz is in milwaukee and spoke with one concerned family. >> reporter: the mayor says the paint is the primary concern because lead-based paint is in at least 100,000 homes here. some residents are worried about lead from pipes even though the water is treated to keep the lead out. one milwaukee family is now dealing with the dangers of lead poisoning and they're angry about what they call the city's slow response. aminah painstakingly prepares water for her family, filtering it pitcher by pitcher. you do it by hand? >> every day. >> reporter: last year, her youngest son had a blood lead level of 11.4, more than double what's considered lead poisoning. lead can affect iq. and aminah and her husband believe it stunted their 5-year-old son's brain development. >> operating more on a 3-year-old level. i'll say hey, what's your name or how old are you.

>> reporter: what does your son say? >> he'll look at you. he'll look at you like he's trying to decipher or figure it out. >> reporter: milwaukee health officials say lead from paint poses the greatest risk to local families. but the al mujaahids believe it's in their water, after recently learning they have lead service lines. the city says its water meets standards and is treated to prevent lead from leeching from pipes. up to 10 million homes nationwide still have lead service lines. even though congress banned the lead plumbing supplies more than 30 years ago. about 74,000 are in milwaukee. where the city has a program to split the cost of replacing lead pipes are home owner, but so far only 1% has been done. water, it's alarming for me because i'm thinking about the exposure. their lives are important to us.
7:43 am
but it's difficult to see the city not care. >> reporter: the family says they tried to get a free water filter under the city's lead program. but when they went, none were left. that fits in with a recent review of the city's lead prevention program ordered by the mayor. which found insufficient staffing, underfunding and claims of mismanagement. the childhood lead poisoning prevention program doesn't have records of investigating about 100 addresses where kid's blood lead levels reached 20 or higher. health officials also don't know if 4,500 families received follow-up letters with children's lead test results. how did these kids slip through the cracks? >> well, a big part of this, we tonight know t don't know the answer to. >> reporter: the mayor tom barrett. >> i was told by my staff we did not have the documentation that established with certainty that all the kids had received this letter. that was enough for me to say, well, then, we're going to send
