governor christie, good morning. >> good morning. >> that's quite a list. let me ask you about one of those members, roger stone. you were a former u.s. attorney. roger stone is complaining about the way he was treated in that pre-dawn raid. is that out of the ordinary? >> yes, it is, and i will tell you that one of the things when i was watching the reports of that, my wife asked me would you have done that, and i said the only way i would ever done that as u.s. attorney is if we knew that he had a gun, and if so someone has a gun and you're indicting them you worry about them killing themselves or harming others. when i found out that roger stone did not have a gun, i think it was over the top for them to do that because otherwise he's not a flight risk. how could roger stone get out of country? >> cbs jeff pegues reports that the fbi told him that the fbi came in and seized electronic devices, multiple cell phones that he had. could that have been the purpose of this raid? >> you can do that, but you don't need to bring, you know, guys with ar-15s and in flack jackets as if they are going to get shot. when i saw them coming in with all the protective gear it signalled to me, well, they most
8:06 am
know there are weapons inside in florida -- >> what do you think -- >> they were trying to intimidate him and it's the wrong thing for prosecutors to do. i think that mr. mueller made a mistake in authorizing that because you're going to be criticized and rightfully so if you're a prosecutor using those means as a means of intimidation. if you're using it as a way to protect fbi agents, that's completely appropriate, and i've done it. >> as a former law enforcement official it's interesting to hear you side against robert mueller and for someone like roger stone. >> because i've supported mueller all along but when you're wrong, you're wrong. >> he said he was treated fairly and profession little, yeah. >> yeah, they did act that way. i didn't expect the fbi to ask differently but when you get a pound on your door at 6:00 a.m. in the dark a a b of fbi agents with flack jackets on and semiautomatic weapons, i mean, to take somebody oute tha and i talk about this during the
8:07 am
time i was u.s. attorney in the book. these are tough decisions to make, but you always have to err on the side of having people of confidence in the justice system. i have confidence in mr. mueller and his objectivity. i worked with him when he was director of the fbi so i've defended bob all throughout this investigation. i don't believe it's a witch hunt, but when you do stuff like that, those are unforced errors that make everybody take a step back and say, come on. >> let's talk about your book. you paint a picture here of the trump administration that is a complete and thorough mess. this is the presidency of the united states. he's got people working for him who are going after him. he's got members of his family undermining him. they undermined you. you've done all the work on the transition which is had a major operation, $4 trillion government. they throw it all in the trash can. president trump came into office saying i have a special ability because of my business experience to run places in ship shape. what you describe here is a total jalopy mess. >> well, listen, what i try to do in the book is to let people
8:08 am
know the truth. unlike some of these other books that gossip and give these back room kind of like, you know, titillating stories, i was in all these rooms and helping to prepare this guy for the presidency, and to prepare the transition, and i think the untold story is not -- has not been spoken enough about is that transition got thrown out 140 people, not me. 140 people worked on that transition from may until november and steve bannon and jared kushner and rick dearborn made the decision for the president to throw that out and they told them we'll handle it, and that turned out to be a mistake and i think even the president today acknowledges that that was a mistake. >> you also talk about the russia investigation, and you go hard after jeff sessions saying that he should not have recused himself. why? most legal experts say he should have. >> or that he should have told the president about it up front. >> how would he have known -- >> first of all, we all knew it was ongoing at that time. everybody knew there was an investigation going on at that time. >> not after he met with the russians though.
8:09 am
>> i'm talking about when the president came to him to say i want you to be attorney general. he knew at that point he had been b didn't know it in november. he knew it, and the problem, bianna, is the president had a right to know that. he may have picked sessions anyway, but he had a right to know that sessions was going to recuse himself so he could evaluate that along with the other candidates and decide. is jeff still the best person that i want in maybe the president wouldn't decide to do that. i think he deprived the president of information needed. this is what i'm talking about throughout the book, john, you know, the president's been ill served by people who are not ready for primetime, and -- and that's happened again and again and again, and these jobs are tough enough when you have a good staff. >> sure. >> governor christ year, you paint a picture of repeated mistakes over and over again even when you counseled him differently. thanks so much for joining us this morning. >> good to see you all again. >> "let me finish" goes on sale tomorrow. pope francis is back at the vatican this morning after the catholic world youth day rally

among youth threatens five decades of public health gains. our dr. tara narula is here. good morning. >> good morning. >> when you look at the numbers, e-cigarette use up 78% among high school students just in the past year. is it an epidemic? >> let me put this in perspective for you. in march, the american academy of pediatrics and other organizations like the american cancer society, aha, sued the fda saying they are not doing enough in terms of regulating e-cigarettes. they have delayed what we call premarket approval until 2022. and it is an epidemic. the surgeon general says that, in fact, it is. it is affecting 3.6 million youth. they are the ones that are users. about 20% of hurricane students, 5% of middle school students, and we know it's not just the harms of the e-cigarettes but the fact that it is a gateway to traditional cigarette use. >> i was -- >> increases that risk. >> i was surprised when the pediatrician asked my 10-year-old if they had ever used an e-cigarette. pediatricians are on notice.
8:19 am
describe the health dangers. >> there are a lot. let's start with nicotine itself. we know that nicotine is extremely addictive. whether you use it once, twice, a couple of weeks, you can become addicted. the amount of nicotine that kids get from e-cigarettes may be much more than they would get from traditional cigarettes. in fact, one of these pods has as much nicotine as a whole pack of cigarettes. nicotine has cardiovascular side effects, and it affects the adolescent brain. the brain develops until the age of 25. nicotine has the potential to change learning, memory, impulse control. also can affect mood disorders, increasing the risk of mood disorders, and prime the brain for risk of addiction to other substances. >> yeah. >> now let's talk about what else is in the e-cigarettes bides nicotine. ultrafine particles that can be irritants or affect the lungs. the flavorings which we think are generally recognized as safe for ingestion, may not be safe for inhalation. there are toxins, carcinogens. risk of accidental ingestion of the liquid that's led to poison control calls. many of them. as well as burns and fires.
8:20 am
i mean, the list is -- >> you are doing a good job of describing how dangerous this is. >> what are the effects on bystanders, like secondhand smoke? >> there's not been a lot of study looking into that. we really don't know. certainly it does linger in the air, and there could well be effects on bystanders. >> the point is some of the damage to the lungs or brain, you can't reverse. >> we don't think so. we haven't studied it long term. >> what about parents with -- of a teenager, what can they do? >> parents can do a lot. the aap says parents should be screening, talking to their kids and saying, are you using e-cigarettes? have you been around them. if they are, why are you using this. and helping to get them help if they need help. and not importantly punishing them, but recognizing that this is a health problem. it is an addiction. and unfortunately, we don't have a lot of treatments for kids who are hooked to vaping. we don't have the same kind of treatments like we might offer replacement therapy. patches, et cetera, or medications. they haven't been approved for
8:21 am
kids. >> i think the point you make is a good one, explaining that the adolescent mind is developing until the age of 25. so any of the toxins, carcinogens, stimulants that you place in that brain are going to affect you for life. >> yeah. >> what's so unimportant is that the marketing to kids -- unfortunate is that the marketing to kids has been aggressive. marketing on television which is not allowed on traditional media, media, sporting events. some it offer scholarships to kids -- >> it is not a benign habit. thank you. lin-manuel miranda and the cast of "hamilton" took a bow in puerto rico one last time. ahead, the emotional final performance of the hit broadway musical on the island. you're watching "cbs this morning."

"the office" -- >> props to "the office" and the beegees. that's all you need. >> hopefully this office does not conduct itself in the same way as the satirical "office." >> professionals here. the flu season is in full force. the cdc says about seven million americans have contracted the virus so far. the "wall street journal" reports some employees are fighting back against colleagues who insist on coming in to work even when they're unwell. it says so-called sick shamers are offering cough drops and breaking out the disineffecttant. that's a hint. one woman quoted says she had asked coughing co-workers to sequester themselves in a nearby room, creating an office quarantine. she has followed snivelers and nose-blowers around with disinfectant and ordered them not to touch door handles. we have more on the workplace issues from "the journal." he's explaining why the sick day may be disappearing. great to have you at the table. you're healthy, i assume? >> we have disinfectant here --

>> and quarantine room there. not everyone has paid sick days. 71% of americans do. why do some still insist on coming to work when they're sonic. >> i think oftentimes a lot of companies, bosses, make it all but impossible not to come in. you feel pressured to kind of finish that project. you feel pressure to show your face in the office. even if you have paid time off, people feel like they have heavy workloads, they have to be there even if they're sick and grossing colleagues out. >> when my kid has a cold, i still send them to school. you get a note saying if you have a fever, then you stay at home. if it's just a sniffle, go to school. why would it be different going to work? >> it vaefs person to person. -- it varies person to person. a lot of people make the case, i have a cough, i'm not contagious, i'm okay to work. a lot of colleagues may not know that. they're worried they're going to get sick because we're in open offices, there's not a barrier between us. they're concerned a cough that's

that's an important point. doing that enable someone to stay home. >> and it's how effective you are. we talk about in sleeping segments, people don't get enough sleep and are not as effective at work. is the same when you're sick? >>ings that that's it. in academics, there's a field that studies this. they say you get more done at the office than you would be at home watching movies with a box of clean ex-next to you -- kleenex next to you. at the same time, you're not a peak performer. get rest, come back when you can. everybody will be better for it. >> chip cutter, thank you, interesting story. atlanta is one of america's signature cities, especially for music. ahead, we'll go back to the super bowl host city and talk
