morning saturday is here. the bulty of the red light, it goes on and somebody is here. >> that i may be running in but somebody will be here. >> i'm very glad it's us today. we begin with this. president trump is showing what his re-election campaign will look like in his first rally since the completion of the mueller report. the president spoke for nearly an hour and a half in grand rapids, michigan last night. he claimed victory for the investigation that found no grounds to charge him with collusion. >> after three years of lies and smears and slander, the russia hoax is finally dead. the collusion delusion is over. >> the president made fresh attacks on obamacare and his opponents as his supporters cheered him on. major garrett is at the white house. good morning. >> good morning. ever since the mueller investigation began, president trump has told crowds he never

colluded with russia and boy did they believe him. in michigan last night he acted as if the mueller report summarized by the attorney general was his "good housekeeping" seal of proof and he says now his democratic rivals and critics are discredited and re-election will be a breeze. >> the single greatest political hoax in the history of our country, and guess what? we won. it's a beautiful thing. it's a beautiful thing. >> reporter: for a president who loves to tell the nation and the world he's already right, president trump relished his first campaign rally after the completion of the russia investigation. it was a profaned victory lap. >> the democrats will have to decide whether they will continue frauding the public with ridiculous [ bleep ]. >> reporter: the president, who as a candidate, led chants of lock her up against hillary clinton missed the irony of this post-mueller observation.

>> in this country we cannot criminalize political differences. >> reporter: without having seen the mueller report, mr. trump acted if he had nothing to fear, even though the report runs more than 300 pages. democrats, he said, had overplayed their hands and may not recover. >> and this group of major losers, they're on artificial respirators right now. they're getting mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. >> reporter: a recent cbs news poll shows 77% of americans want the special counsel report released. >> no, thank you, mr. attorney general. we do not need your interpretation. >> reporter: house speaker nancy pelosi dismissed attorney general william barr's four-pam sujry as mueller's report as condescending. >> show us the report and we can draw our own conclusions. >> reporter: in michigan mueller wasn't the only topic on the president's mind. >> we have a chance of killing obamacare. we almost did it.

>> reporter: despite republican misgivings on timing and tactics, he plowed ahead on one of his biggest legislative failures. >> the republican party will become the party of great health care. it's good. it's important. >> reporter: the president called re-election one big cakewalk. >> when i campaign, it's going to be so much easier the second time. >> reporter: and received encouragement from the crowd. >> four more years! >> reporter: the attorney general is still reviewing and in some cases redacting the mueller report. house democratic staffers tell us one of the issues predictable all along is what to do with grand jury testimony, bringing that out for full public view rather might require either a subpoena or court order or some combination of the two. >> major, thank you. at that rally in michigan, the president singled out a number of democrats, especially the chairman of the house intelligence committee. >> little pencil neck adam

schiff got the smallest, thinnest neck i've ever seen. he's not a long-ball hitter. but i saw him today, well, we don't really know. there could still have been some russia collusion. these are sick people. >> reporter: schiff continues to accuse the president of collusion with russia. now republicans are demanding that the california congressman resign his chairmanship. ed o'keefe is on capitol hill for us. ed, good morning. >> good morning, all. nine republicans in the house intelligence committee are calling on schiff to go, saying they no longer have confidence in his ability to lead the committee. republican mike conway is leading the charge telling schiff yesterday his continued claims of collusion are, quote, incompatible with his duty. but schiff doubling down and slamming republicans for denying the president's alleged conduct. >> you might say that's all okay. you might say that's just what you need to do to win.

but i don't think it's okay. i think it's immoral, i think it's unethical, i think it's unpatriotic, and, yes, i think it's corrupt. evidenthey believe the deta mueller's report will be bad for the president and going to do everything in their power to get the report released. but there's little members of the minority party can do to oust the chairman of the majority party. schiff has no plans to resign and still enjoys the support of house democrats, including house speaker nancy pelosi. >> and adding to the intrigue on capitol hill, jared kushner, the president's son-in-law and senior adviser was spotted there. what's that about? >> we don't know all of the details but we know he met behind doors with the senate intelligence committee. it's a reminder there are eight different committees, house and senate, investigating the

president, his businesses and russia's interference in our elections. and more than anything, kushner's appearance is a reminder the investigations will continue even after the mueller report's conclusion. that's likely to come florida ka complicate the president's ability to work with democrats on anything else. >> ed, thank you. we wish you a slow news day. >> and we're glad you're not calling people pencil necks, too. president trump said his administration will not cut special olympics funding from next year's budget after days of criticism. >> i have been to the special olympics. i think it's incredible, and i just authorized a funding. i heard about it this morning. i have overridden my people. >> education secretary betsy devos defended the $17.6 million budget cut this week. she told congress that special olympics should be funded through private donations. after the president spoke yesterday, devos said she was grateful. the statement says this, this is funding i have fought for behind the scenes over the last several years.

at least 13 of the 33 parents charged in the massive college admission scheme will appear in a boston courtroom today. they're expected to enter pleas on conspiracy charges. this comes one day after a key defendant, former yale soccer coach rudy meredith, became the third person in the case to ble plead guilty. carter evans is at the boston courthouse. >> reporter: good morning. parents are expected to appear in court include actresses felicity huffman and lori loughlin will be here next wednesday. this after the man whose action exposed the scandal admitted his wrongdoing. >> do you have anything to say to the student you helped get into yale? >> reporter: former yale soccer coach rudy meredith didn't say a word as he left the boston courthouse thursday surrounded by a crush of cameras. inside the 51-year-old pleaded guilty to pocketing more than $860,000 in bribes to help parents get their children into yale.

four documents show that in 2017, rick singer, the mastermind behind the scheme paid meredith $400,000 to get the daughter of a wealthy couple into the ivy league school. meredith designated her as one of his recruits, even though she never played competitive soccer. this week yale announced its rescinding that student's remission. yale students in boston covering the scandal for the school paper -- >> do you think what happened here today will bring a close ur to this? >> i think so. the biggest amount of closure students would like to see is the confirmation everybody at yale got into yale fairly. >> reporter: meredith's downfall apparently came when he tried to work a deal on his own. according to federal authorities, he directly sought out $450,000 in bribes last year from a wealthy father but that parent was already under investigation by federal authorities for securities fraud, and the father tipped off the fbi, ultimately exposing

singer's wide-ranging, $25 million scheme. >> it's clear by all of that that we need reform. >> reporter: in california thursday, lawmakers proposed a series of measures aimed at keeping college applicants from cheating the system, including requiring three college administrators to sign off on special admissions and banning special treatment for children of donors and alumni. >> we want to put faith back into the admissions policy that if you work hard, you have a fair shot. because right now you don't. >> reporter: among the parents expected here today are a couple accuse rd accused of paying $200,000 to fake college volleyball records and father who paid $75,000 to have his son a.c.t. test answers corrected. meredith will be back in court june 20th for sentencing, that's one day after rick singer's sentencing. tony? >> a reminder where you go to college does not determine everything about the rest of your life to take some of the

findings and address any areas of concerns. >> i make a motion we adjourn. >> reporter: they didn't take any questions before filing out, feeding the frustration of a community demanding insight into exactly how the little girl died. >> can you wait outside for two hours and you're going to adjourn the meeting and leave? no questions or answers! >> reporter: video from a 2017 church event shows raniya's mother gushing over her daughter's love for education. >> her favorite subject in school and math and science and she says when she grows up, she wants to be a teacher. >> reporter: it's a stark contrast to the picture and message she posted on facebook from her daughter's hospital room before she died. this is what bullying causes. keep the prayers coming for my sweet baby girl. officials have not said whether bullying was a factor in the incident. dozens of people gathered together to pray at a vigil yesterday and some expressed concerns for the safety of their own children. >> i thought up until now it was a safe haven for the little ones

in elementary school and apparently it's not. >> an autopsy is scheduled for today. the colliton county school districts say another student involved in the fight was a fifth grader and suspended. no charges have been filed. >> so many things wrong, especially given she's an elementary school student dyeing at the hands of another elementary school student. why aren't they saying exactly what happened? >> i called the school and they will not say more than their statement. they've fighting privacy lauers. >> perplexing on many levels. >> very, very upsetting. thank you, nikki. some airlines are offering discounts to passengers stranded when wow air suddenly shut down. some 4,000 travelers in north america and europe scrambled to find new flights yesterday. it's unclear if or how many of them will get their refunds.

that's what new york city looks like this morning. pretty good. welcome back to "cbs this morning." there are three things you should know this morning. boeing faces what may be the first wrongful death lawsuit for its role in the deadly 737 max-8 jet crash in ethiopia earlier this month. the claim was filed on behalf of one of the victim's estates. it alleged that boeing defectively designed the 737 max's automated flight control system and then failed to warn others of the defect. boeing has declined to comment on this lawsuit.

the "wall street journal" reports crash investigators reached a preliminary conclusion that the suspect flight control feature was activated just before the plane nose dived into the ground. boeing outlined fixes to the system earlier this week. and twitter is considering a new feature that would label offensive tweets by public figures. very interesting. the company says it's exploring ways to give users more context to tweets that actually violate the platform's rules but are deemed newsworthy and in the public interest. the tech giant, however, does draw the line at direct violent threats against individuals. this move is part of twitter's effort to curb hate speech and offensive content. and seven of music's biggest legends will be inducted into the rock and roll hall of fame. it includes janet jackson, def leppard, and stevie nicks. ♪ sings a song

smollett's alleged behavior. >> let me be really clear about something. the only reason jussie smollett thought he could take advantage of a hoax of a hate crime is because of the toxic environment donald trump created. >> emanuel is demanding smollett pay $135,000 to cover the overtime worked by more than two dozen chicago police who spent weeks investigating smollett's claim that he was the subject of a bigoted attack. >> given that he doesn't feel any sense of contrition and remorse, my recommendation is when he writes the check in the memo section he can put the word, i'm accountable for the hoax. >> smollett has consistently maintained his innocence. on thursday, one of his attorneys explained why he initially described his attackers as white. even though brothers ola and abe l, who told police smollett paid them to stage the alleged assault, are black. >> you could disguise that, put maikel on. >> smollett said little upon arriving in los angeles this

hometown of miami there. state lawmakers in utah just passed a new law to try to make trampoline parks safer. utah joins at least seven other states requiring more oversight from insurance companies and annual inspections. the popular theme parks have exploded into a billion dollar industry. in the last eight years alone, the number of trampoline parks has, here's a pun, jumped. there are more than 1,000 around the world. in this country, they all operate without any federal oversight. meg oliver has been looking into the rise in injuries at these parks. meg, good morning. >> good morning to all of you. just days before that utah law was signed, a high school football player was paralyzed after being injured at a trampoline park in that state.

in the last seven years, cbs news has confirmed at least six people have died from injuries at trampoline parks. that number could be even higher because many of those injured are often forced into arbitration and sign confidentiality agreements that stop them from speaking out. on most weekends, trampoline parks are packed with hundreds of kids bouncing, jumping into pits, and playing tag. their popularity is leading to new cases for attorneys like david chacin. he represents more than a dozen people injured at trampoline parks in new jersey. >> look below the screen there. >> at the bottom right of the screen, a father unknowingly causes what's known as a double bounce. his 4-year-old son falls to the mat. >> the force of the trampoline coming back up from the father's hop across broke the 4-year-old's femur. >> oh, my gosh. >> it takes almost a full minute before anyone, including the guard on duty, realizes the

child is squirming in pain. don mcpherson has coached gymnastics for more than 40 years. >> bravo. >> since 2011, he's been an expert witness in more than 200 plaintiff cases against trampoline parks. he says the injuries they can cause are life altering. >> broken necks, broken backs. dislocated and open fractured elbows. shoulders. >> these are injuries that seem like military grade. >> they're all catastrophic injuries. >> mcpherson says the danger lies in the design. several trampolines are connected with steel cables or chain links under thin padding. as people jump, waves of energy are generated in all directions, which can cause those double bounces that can end in high-impact coalitions. >> they're moving at speeds and with energy that when they hit or get hit by somebody else that's twice their weight, they end up with crush injuries. >> injuries so severe, they can

lead to death. at his peak, ric swezey was a world-class gymnast. >> other than his children and me that mattered most in his life was his gymnastics. >> that all changed in 2017 when ric visited a trampoline park in virginia with his husband, nick, and their twins. nick says ric was jumping on the trampoline when he came down wrong on his foot, stumbled and hit his head against a thinly padded wall. >> the c-2 vertebrae cracked, constricted his airway and his blood flow. paralyzed him. he was over 90% brain dead. >> within three minutes. you lost the love of your life. >> yeah. i watched the lights go out in his eyes. >> in the last few years, emergency room visits caused by trampoline park injuries has skyrocketed. according to the consumer

product safety commission, the numbers have shot up from 2500 in 2013 to almost 18,000 in 2017. >> everybody in the gymnastics community calls them death parks. >> mcpherson took us to a trampoline park outside chicago. >> this whole setup is wrong. >> he pointed out several red flags from lack of supervision. >> there's no one here. >> and trampolines flush against thinly padded walls. >> how dangerous is that? >> dangerous. you get a brain bleed from hitting this. >> to foam pits adjacent to trampolines that mcpherson says are too shallow. >> they probably enough foam, but it's the design of the foam pits. they're not deep enough. >> are you risking your life when you go to these trampoline parks? >> yes, unknowingly. >> for families like nick's, the message is simple. >> never. birthday parties, no. never. never, never, never. >> you believe they're that dangerous. >> i don't know how to believe any other way, right? my husband was an elite level

opened up the market for a lot of people. >> and they were doing okay for a long time. >> for a long time. >> how were they doing okay, the introductory rate and then prices go up. >> kind of like how startups are worth billions of dollars and lose money every year. the same with airlines. trying to build critical mass with people trusting the airline. everything is about psychology with airlines, and they were trying to break into a market, take customers away from the main carriers. the problem, is you know, once your credit runs up in the airline business you need a lot of cash to run airlines, so if you don't have, you know, that line of credit, which happened this week, i mean, they started taking the planes away right away. >> the point that the woman made who got stranded and she said they probably knew it was going to happen. why did they let me fly? >> well, you know, everything -- you know, they had a prayer that more funding would come in. it was about to. a u.s. hedge fund was about to invest which would have kept things going. it just at the very last minute didn't and now thousand of people are stranded. >> what do you do? >> the first thing you do. >> i'm now in paris with no way

home. >> so a lot of airlines are offering rescue fares. the problem with the rescue fares is all the flights out of, especially reykjavik are full for the next six days and you have to pay out of your own pocket. the sail no longer. they are not paying for anything. >> can you call your credit card company? >> the very best tip i have is your shed card should be able to assist. several cards give you trip interruption and cancellation insurance. why you buy airfare use a credit card that offers that. some that have no annual feels will cover up to $10,000 so you'll get your ticket price back and it will cover your hotel for five nights so people who book use the right card can buy a new ticket out and rim burst it later on. >> i like the guy who said i showed up for my flight, not the flight but airline was cancelled, and we heard about quite a few cancellations of budget airlines in recent months. >> yeah. >> where do you stand on them going forward? would you buy a budget ticket? >> you know, i -- i would -- you

know, there's none right now -- >> i'm 6'7" so i don't generally fly because i don't fit in the seats. >> for people who are not 6'7"? >> i would but use a credit card that offers protection and if you don't have a credit card that offers protection buy trip insurance because you are takin% a risk. >> not from the airline. >> the airlines offer trip protection and whenever they make it easy to tack on the end, that's not the best policy. get an independent policy backed by an insurer that gives you peace of mind. if you're going cheap, make sure you've got the protection. >> or buy two seats and you can stretch out even if you're 6'7". >> with $99 seats. brian, thank you very much. appreciate it. monarch butterflies may in trouble. ahead, we'll take to you a remote forest in central mexico for one of nature's

>> curry offered the petition to protect the monarch as a federally endangered species. >> in the united states monarchs are threatened by climate change because of more severe storms when they are migrating in the spring and fall. >> so the bigger storms, just blow them out of the air? >> blow them out of the air, disrupt migration. cause them to get stuck in places or if it's too warm then they stay north too long and then it gets cold and then they die. >> reporter: in fact, an estimated 40% of all insect species are in decline. a diouf that threatens an animal much higher on the food chain. >> the human being eat biodiversity. >> reporter: our presence on the planet is dependant on their presence on planet. >> my point exactly. >> they are so important culturally. no one has ever said i hope the mop arc goes extinct. >> hope we're not in trouble for getting into that remote part of the park. i can imagine some people thinking i like one butterfly on
