7:09 am
separations. the order also says parents can not be deported before being preunited with their children. under the current system, the judge writes under the present system, migrant children are not accounted for with the same efficiency and accuracy as property. certainly that cannot satisfy the requirement of due process. >> we do not want any children separated from their parents. >> reporter: told they would not return the children -- >> if the parent remains in ask detention unfortunately under rules set by congress and the courts, they cannot be reunited. >> reporter: azar is referring to the flores agreement. that says that immigrant children cannot be held that detention for more than 20 days. now, hhs says there are currently 2,047 children still separated from their parents. that's six less than the number the government gave us last week. >> last week, we had about 3100.
7:10 am
we have been consistently over 4,200 apprehensions a week >> reporter: we went to see manuel padilla who runs the busiest sector on the border. he said last week the number of apprehensions dropped. >> preliminarily what does that say to you? >> that it works. having a consequence to illegal entry works. >> reporter: even if the separating of families did act as a deterrent, critics of that type of policy say it is immoral. the pope said that, this week, we're told that first lady melania trump will visit another facility where children are being held. maybe she can do something to help speed up the process. >> i'm glad you updated us on the numbers. thank you so much. president trump is claiming vindication after the supreme court allowed his travel ban to stay in place. the court's conservative majority upheld the ban. that affects seven countries.
7:11 am
the 5-4 ruling declared the president has brought authority to make national security judgments over immigration. after the ruling the president tweeted supreme court upholds the trump travel ban. wow, exclamation point. jan crawford is at the supreme court with the significance of this decision. jan, good morning. >> good morning, norah. you know, vindication, because the president had lost at almost every turn in the lower courts. he vowed he would continue fighting for an immigration system that he says will serve the interests of american citizens. >> i will always be defending the sovereignty, the safety and security of the american people. >> reporter: the administration framed the decision as a victory for security. >> this decision is critical to ensuring the continuing authority of president trump. >> reporter: as the supreme court emphasized presidents have long had sweeping authority in defense of the nation, but democrats were quick to call the ban discrimination that hurts the country. >> it is dangerous. it makes us less safe.
7:12 am
>> reporter: chief judge justice robert's decision says this. it covered five countries that past administrations had identified as security risks. the policy is a far cry from the president's first effort that caused chaos at airports worldwide. >> donald j. trump is calling for a total and complete shutdown of muslims entering the united states. >> reporter: dissenting justices said his campaign statement showed it was motivated by religious hostility. justice sonia sotomayor wrote a reasonable observer would conclude it was motivated by anti-muslim animus. >> we note that. >> reporter: romney is a u.s. citizen whose yemeni wife and children are waiting for visas. their future and that of other immigrant families is now in question.
7:13 am
>> we are all equal in this country, and we have rights, and it's protected. well, guess what? it's not. >> reporter: now, the opinion said it was not endorsing the soundness of the policy. and justice anthony kennedy wrote a separate concurring opinion, he was in the majority. and without outruling president trump. officials must stay committed to preserving our constitutional liberties that an ancient world is watching. john. >> jan crawford, thanks so much. passengers on a jetblue flight say they were terrified when armed officers suddenly stormed the plane in new york. it was about to take off for los angeles when the equipment failure caused pilots to lose communication. then a false alarm triggered the massive police response. kris van cleave is following this complicated story. kris, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. we're getting new information here, the flight did eventually make it to los angeles.

7:18 am
on the streets of the bronx, whether it's trinitarios or any other gang in involved in behavior of this sort. >> reporter: the nypd says the information they've received from tip s online and phone cals actually have helped them to make a number of arrests in the case. they have also said there appears to be a link between the case and the teen who was attacked on the highway. >> thank you very much. a white police officer is now charged with criminal homicide for the deadly shooting of an unarmed teenager. his attorney said michael rosfeld turned himself this morning. he's due back in court this week. rosfeld shot antwon rose last week. he had been sworn in just hours before the incident. criticism from the president can bring together people you wouldn't expect to see in one place. ahead, the story behind how

7:21 am
were aware this type of data collection that's actually for political questions could have been controversial. >> ahead, a conversation with the insider who said she felt compelled to speak out. >> you're watching "cbs this morning." >> announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by toyota. let's go places. easy... ♪ [engine accelerating] ♪ get outta the way! ♪ they've gone wild! ♪ saddle up! ♪ toyota. let's go places.

january before the company shut down. they processed data for several republican clients, including donald trump's presidential campaign. it drew attention when it was revealed the company harvested data from 87 million unknowing facebook users and cameras caught its ceo discussing underhanded tactics like bribery and sex stings. kaiser says she wants to speak out now about what she sees as the wild west attitude of data gathering. cambridge analytica has been in the news because of the use of facebook data, 87 million facebook profiles. could it be more than what we know that cambridge analytica had access to? >> in terms of what cambridge analytica had access to, i know for a fact that there were more than just the, this is your digital life app that tends to be getting a lot of press these days. >> that's the personality quiz that gathered information on facebook users and their
7:41 am
friends. brittany kaiser says she knows of two similar programs cambridge analytica developed to collect information. >> so, what are we looking at here? >> this was an all-company e-mail. >> she showed us a 2015 note from a data scientist behind a quiz called music walrus. he asked colleagues to share it with family and friends but added please do not mention that it is an scl thing. say that a friend of yours made it. >> and why would the senior data scientist be working on this app not want somebody to say that it came from scl, the parent company of cambridge analytica. >> at the time they were receiving significant press for its political work and this data scientist was probably well aware of what might have happened in the press, if it looked like that company was undertaking data collection on social media. >> but another internal source tells cbs news the project never launched. no data was collected.
7:42 am
he suggests the intention of the e-mail was to see how the app would grow organically. without the corporate nature to make it less enticing. >> did anybody, from a moral standpoint say, when you give somebody something but you're really doing it to get something else from them, that's just not the way we should behave, regardless of the rules or regulations? >> i don't think too many people looked back and questioned that. if you are interacting with anything on your phone or your computer, it is specifically designed to collect as much data about you as possible so that that can then be monetized. >> i've decided to take the responsible and ethical decision to share my experience at the company. >> in her role as director of business development, kaiser sold cambridge analytica data services to both political and corporate clients. about 30 states prohibit voter data from being used for commercial purposes and kaiser questions whether that might have happened.
7:43 am
>> there's not proper legislation, regulation or technology available to track and trace the usage of that data. and i think going forward there needs to be a better solution for making sure that agencies much bigger than cambridge analytica as well are playing by the rules. >> what investigators have you been talking to? >> i'm currently working to be as helpful as possible to any government investigations where i can provide assistance, but i can't comment on that right now while they're ongoing. >> kaiser also won't say why she left cambridge analytica, but she departed in january before the facebook scandal broke and before her former ceo was exposed on hidden camera. >> offer them a deal that's too good to be true and make sure that's video recorded. >> he later denied that the company engaged in dirty political tricks. >> did you know of any of that or hear of anything like that when you were there? >> never.
7:44 am
it's so disappointing to see things like that in the media. i haven't even been able to bring myself to watch those videos. i saw enough of the quotes to know that i didn't want to know more. >> when you saw those quotes, did you think, i can't believe it? or did you think, well, hmm -- >> it sounded like an overblown sales pitch, like he had gone above and beyond the call of duty to explain what was possible in order to win. i had never heard him say anything like that before so i was shocked and embarrassed. >> in your feeling, having worked there, was cambridge analytica just being aggressive with this exciting new tool or was it breaking the law? >> my personal belief was that everybody was aggressively trying to grow the company as quickly as possible, and just like another company that's currently under scrutiny, the phrase move fast and break things, i think, definitely
7:45 am
broke a lot of things in the last campaign. >> kaiser is comparing cambridge an lachlt ytica to facebook, the famous facebook motto. we also talked about a visit she paid to julian assange. former ceo alexander nicks says she's an unreliable witness, claims that the quizes never got beyond the testing phase and there was nothing nefarious about them. he also said processes were in place to ensure that political data was not used for commercial purposes. >> she's raising interesting things. why is she talking now, do you think? >> she said she wants to make sure that this data collection, when regulations are put into place, that they capture everything that was going on that might be problematic. that's a word she used a lot. she gave us part of the picture. she knows other things. she's talking to investigators. so, we'll know the full picture at some point later when all of that comes out. >> good story. thank you, john.

more women seem to be in less of a hurry to have a family. cd figures show for the first time ever women in their 30s are having more children than those in their 20s. but putting off childbearing can affect a woman's chances to get pregnant. a san francisco-based start-up called modern fertility has launched an at-home hormone test similar to those done in fertility clinics. mireya villarreal shows us how they work and why the results may not tell the whole story. >> reporter: lauren denham is a lifestyle blogger and actress. >> you know what, if you won't do it, i will. >> reporter: she's also a stand-in for stars like reese witherspoon on tv and movie sets. denham says she was so focused on her career that having children didn't cross her mind until she turned 30 last year. >> i was, like, well, i'm not ready but my body is, and it
8:18 am
probably is time to start thinking about it. and that's when i started thinking about oh, maybe i should freeze my eggs, look at my options. >> reporter: because eggs decrease in both quantity and quality with age, an increasing number of women are choosing to freeze their eggs during their primary productive years. denham wanted to know whether she should move forward now or wait, which is what led her to modern fertility. the company referred us to denham for her story. >> this is something i could order online right now, take the test, and get the results in a couple days. >> reporter: after a woman ordered the test online, she pricks her finger, places drops of blood on a test strip and send it back to an accredited lab where it's tested for nine hormo hormones. they send back a physician profile explaining how her hormone levels may have the number of eggs she has left, if she's ovulating normally and potential red flags that could affect her window.

8:20 am
alone cannot predict if women will be able to conceive naturally. >> patients may be led to conclusions that may be incorrect because the test results show all the levels are normal, it doesn't mean they're fertile necessarily. >> reporter: there are critics that will say you're not doctors, this could give people a false sense of hope. how do you respond to that? >> there are many things that are required far successful pregnancy, and at modern fertility we're focused on fertility education. the only way you can tell whether you're fertile is to have a baby. but there are tests that you can take where you can get more information about what's going on in your body so that you can make the decisions that are right for you. >> reporter: but dr. aldo palmieri and the company recommend consulting with a dock for about the test results. >> i'm at the very bottom, yeah. >> reporter: and that result is concerning. >> mm-hmm. >> reporter: denham's profile showed low levels of a key hormone that affects the number of eggs she's producing. that prompted her to meet with her gynecologist who recommended retesting her hormones in a few months.
