♪ >> this morning's eye opener is presented by toyota, let's go places. >> i hope that song stays with you and that energy all day. i love little kids' voices. >> i could watch that all day long. >> i want that audience in here. >> there is room. welcome to "cbs this morning." nobody is singing. a growing number of democrats, including some presidential candidates, say congress must start an impeachment investigation of president trump. this follows mueller's statement where he said the russia investigation did not clear the president of suspected kr criminali criminality. >> the president claimed mueller was conflicted and had no evidence to charge him. paula reed is at the white

house. what was the president upset about? >> reporter: good morning. this was the first time the president responded in person after robert mueller's statement yesterday. the president continued to insist there was no obstruction, even though robert mueller made it clear he has not cleared the president on that issue. >> if we had had confidence that the president clearly did not commit a crime, we would have said so. >> reporter: mueller used his first public statement in two years to make it clear he did not exonerate the president of obstruction of justice. >> we did not, however, make a determination as to whether the president did commit a crime. >> no collusion. no obstruction. >> reporter: president trump has previously claimed the report did exonerate him, after his attorney general william barr cleared the president of obstruction. yesterday, president trump appeared to take a more nuanced approach, tweeting, there was therefore in our country a person is innocent. mueller implied he could not charge the president because of a justice department policy that

a sitting president cannot be indicted. >> it would be unfair to potentially accuse somebody of a crime when there can be no court resolution of the actual charge. >> reporter: he suggested it was up to congress to pursue the eftdz evidence he uncovered. >> the constitution requires a process other than the criminal justice system to formally accuse a sitting president of wrongdoing. >> reporter: many democrats, including a number of candidates for president, took mueller's statement as a call to impeach. >> this is as close to an impeachment referral as you could get under the circumstances. >> he is laying this at the lap of congress to go forward. >> i would suggest that he told us enough to interpret what he said as a referral for impeachment proceedings. >> he is demanding that we do this now or forever lose the opportunity to act. >> reporter: mueller hopes this will be his last public comment on the matter. but house speaker nancy pelosi may have other plans. >> i think it would be useful for him to testify before

congress. >> reporter: mueller wanted to make sure that despite all the controversy swirling around the president that the public didn't lose sight of the fact that his investigation uncovered extensive efforts by russia to interfere in the 2016 election. he charged dozens of russian nationals. it's unlikely any will see the inside of a u.s. courtroom. >> thank you very much. house democrats are weighing their next steps after mueller's statement. his words put more pressure on house speaker nancy pielosi to start an inquiry. the democratic party had been split on the issue of impeachment. are they still? >> reporter: still deeply split. there were new converts to the impeach camp yesterday after mueller spoke. they viewed his remarks as essentially him tossing the ball congress' way and saying it's time for congress to act. nancy pelosi, however, speaking

in san francisco made it clear that she still prefers to wait. she said that it's important for congress to build its own airtight case before resorting to impeachment proceedings because otherwise it's doomed to fail in the republican-controlled senate. the house intelligence committee has recently worked out a deal with the department of justice to get its hands on some of the previously redacted material from the mueller report. once they are able to get a look at that, that could help determine where congress goes from here. >> mr. mueller made it clear yesterday that he hoped his remarks would be -- those remarks would be his last. nancy pelosi wants him to testify. what are the chances of that happening? >> reporter: well, the negotiations are ongoing. he had indicated that if he was going to testify, he would prefer to do most of it behind closed doors. democrats, viously, prefer the spectacle of him testifying in an open setting, because they believe that every time he talks about the president lying or

talks about obstruction of justice, it helps them to build their case. >> thank you. attorney general barr will sit down for an exclusive interview later today with jan crawford. we will hear that tomorrow on "cbs this morning." >> i like that word, exclusive. how about another one? in an exclusive interview, boeing's ceo says the new update will make the 737 one of the most safest to fly. nora o'donnell asked him about the people flying the planes. >> i have heard you suggest that the pilots could have handled the situation in the cockpit better. safety experts have told cbs news it's fair to blame the pilots. >> our purpose is not to point fingers or assign fault. that's not our job.

our purpose is to understand what happened in the accidents so we can make flying safer. >> she will be here at the table in our next half hour with more of her interview. tornadoes have damaged parts of the u.s. for 13 state days now. another round of severe weather is expected today. twisters hit north texas yesterday ripping down fences, uprooting trees and pulling shingles off roofs. we are in canton, texas. what's the damage look like? >> reporter: good morning. people living here in canton tell me they feel like they dodged a bullet, even though a tornado did come through here. look. you can see this is the damage that it left behind. this is a business off one of the main roads. the window has been -- the windows have all been blown out. the roof has come down. the machines are completely destroyed. the weather has moved out of here, headed east now. the good news is, this is giving people enough time to finally

pick up the pieces. >> power flashes. on the road right in front of us. >> reporter: for the 13th day in a row, tornado sirens blaired from pennsylvania to texas. >> i just prayed a lot. >> reporter: twisters were on the move in parts of texas wednesday. ripping trees from the ground, tossing them on cars and blowing out the windows of these businesses. part this was gas station were shredded by the winds. people emerges from their shelters to find a trail of destruction. >> you could see the rain. it was hammering down the street. we could see vehicles shaking. >> reporter: in kentucky, 70 mile per hour winds blew the roof off this building. in new jersey and

pennsylvania -- >> it looked like something out of a movie. >> reporter: people are describing a war zone. >> by the time we turned around, to get to our basement, it was over. it was that fast. >> reporter: crews have been working throughout the night to get power back up to parts of canton that have been affected. the good news is that rain is not expected for the next fee days. the system that did move through here and caused all of this damage is now moving east. it's expected to produce more rain, wind, possibly hail and even tornadoes in some areas. >> i'm going to language on ii words you said, some good news there. louisiana's democratic governor will sign a bill banning abortion as early as the sixth week of pregnancy without exception for rape or incest.

missouri is poised to close its only abortion facility tomorrow. we are in st. louis with more on this story. why is the clinic struggling to keep the doors open? >> reporter: here is what's happening today. in a critical hearing, a judge could grant a restraining order that would essentially prevent the state health officials from refusing to renew the license here at planned parenthood, which expires tomorrow. missouri state health officials say this clinic has been under investigation because of, quote, ongoing concerns about potential deficient practices at the linic, adding that planned parenthood has not agreed to full compliance with state regulations. republican governor mike parson gave examples of those concerns yesterday. which included records of alleged failed surgical abortions. he did not, however, say which violations the organization has not been able to fix.

yesterday, you may recall, planned parenthood's ceo said missouri state officials are trying to, quote, weaponize the inspections process to ban abortion. if this planned parenthood here loses its license, missouri would become the first state in the country where there is no facilities for women to have these abortions. that he's happened since the roe versus wade decision. american fighter jets are doing critical maneuvers in the arctic circle. they are a few hundred miles from russia which has sent warplanes close to u.s. airspace in recent weeks. in the story you will see only on cbs news, we went flying with u.s. forces. >> reporter: good morning from the arctic circle, a long way from home for u.s. marines in south carolina. they are playing a vital role in

these war games against an imaginary enemy that's all too real. a veteran marine pilot has spent a career targeting america's foes. on this exercise, he and his team are playing the role of the enemy. we got the rare opportunity to join them. at full throttle, the f-18 hornet takes flight in seconds, soaring into the skies above the arctic circle. we refuel with a british raf tanker, call sign ascot. before we reach combat where these fighters attempted to penetrate allied air defenses. the thunderbolts are among the most elite forces taking part in exercises involving the uk, france, germany, sweden, norway, finland, denmark and the netherlands. 140 aircraft, 1,000 personnel,

united against a common enemy, even if that enemy is unnamed. the dog fight is classified. but we, the bad guys, lost. >> it was quick. we heard hostile comesing off. you were moving in. >> we were surrounded. that why we died. we were surrounded. >> nobody here is mentioning neighboring russia. moscow has been accused of jamming communications and launching mock attacks during previous exercises. one marine commander told us, russia should be looking at these exercises as a deterrent. the southern u.s. border group is moving ahead with plans to build a private border wall in southwestern new mexico. the group says it's popular.

we are in new mexico. we spoke with the veteran behind this controversial project. good to see you. what are the plans for this wall? >> reporter: good morning. the wall is expected to be half a mile long. runs into a natural barrier. it may be complete by this weekend. within last 48 hours the mayor said, stop. you don't have permits you need. now the group claims they have been given the go ahead to continue. with this video, the group known as we build the wall declared victory. saying they are now effectively protecting a popular passage that immigrants use to enter the u.s. illegally. >> it was a highly trafficked area. >> reporter: it is spearheaded by this triple amputee veteran. he created a go fund me page. >> it's still ongoing. it's around 6 to $8 million.

>> reporter: he is as controversial as the wall. a miami radio station reported that florida's department of agriculture conferred the state is investigating the fund after receiving consumer complaints. what do you say to the critics? >> if we were doing anything wrong, go fund me would have shut this down in a heartbeat. >> reporter: who does manage the money? >> we have an audit committee. went an external audit committee. >> reporter: the wall is being built on privately owned land. this man says his son was murdered by an illegal immigrant. >> i represent every victim of illegal alien crime. >> reporter: the plan has faced criticism from city officials. tuesday, the mayor ordered the group to stop their work. >> construction on the wall is out of -- in violation of city ordinance. >> reporter: the man who owns the property wasn't available

for an interview. his representative said you have a natural barrier. it doesn't make sense to put a wall here. this law professor believes this project may generate more publicity than impact. >> it's unlikely they will get the right to build more than a small section of wall on privately owned land given they can only do so if the owners want to let them. >> reporter: what about the reality, you will do it here and it may help this landowner, but in the larger scheme of things, it will be a drop in the bucket? >> we're not here to build the entire southern border wall. we are here to have an impact with the money we raise to help the communities. >> reporter: you heard him tell me his group hired an external auditor. this morning, he showed up and said that's not the case. they haven't hired an external auditor. they plan to by the end of the tax season. critics will tell you he and his crew are sdexenophobic and whit

supremaci supremacists. he is planning a party here. they are getting ready to do fireworks and a celebration if they complete the project. they think they will by the weekend. >> thank you very much. at the end of the day, it sounds like a private landowner accecc aid fr accepted a free wall on his property. how access to mt. everest could change after a crowded and deadly cli low 60s in san francisco. mid-60s in oakland. low 70s in fremont. now to redwood city. 73 for concord and livermore. there's a slight chance to see the shower for the far north

grounded around the world since march of this year following the crashes in ethiopia and indonesia that killed 346 passengers and crew. when you heard that a second plane had crashed, the same type of plane, what went there your mind? >> this gets to the core of who we are as a company. i have been at boeing for 34 years. i have spent a career working on safe products. we pause, we assess the situation. we immediately began to take actions on what we can do to improve. and in the end, this reinforces our values as a company. >> do you think it would be appropriate to apologize, personally apologize to some of the families? >> i do personally apologize to the families. i can tell you it affects me directly as a leader of this company. it's very difficult. >> how so? >> we can't change what happened in these accidents, but we can be absolutely resolute in what we are going to do on safety.

>> you would put your family on a 737 max? >> without any hesitation, absolutely. i have been up on two of the flight tests myself with the new software and i would in a heart beat put my family on that. >> what do you say to someone in the flying public who says i am not comfortable getting on a boeing 737 max? >> we know it will take some time to earn and reearn that public confidence. and the first step will be to get the max back up and flying safely. >> flight 610 that crashed about 12 minutes after takeoff killed 189 people on board. what's your understanding of what brought that flight down? >> we know that there was inaccurate censor data that came into the airplane that there appears to have been a maintenance issue with that censor. we know that the mcas software was activated multiple times

during that flight. >> it was more than multiple times. it was two dozen times. according to the data released in the preliminary crash report the pilots were essentially in a tug of war with the plane and that plane essentially did a death dive into the ocean at 450 miles per hour. can you imagine how terrifying that was for the people on board? >> we examine every dimension of the accidents, not to try to attribute fault or point fingers, but it's to understand end to end what happened so that in some cases we can make changes to the airplane design to make it safer. >> both of these planes took a nose dive because of that erroneous flight censor information. and if one of the censors is off, it is my understanding that there could be a warning light. that light was supposed to be active on all 737 max jets, and it was not. you knew this in 2017. and you did not tell the faa for 13 months.

why? >> the implementation of that software, we did not do it correctly. our engineers discovered that. >> you are fixing that now? >> we are fixing it now. and our communication on that was not what it should have been. >> does boeing have a correct and transparency problem if they don't admit. >> the implementation of this alert was a mistake. >> in the weeks after the first crash, there were pilots who met with one of your vice presidents. there were a lot of pilots who said we didn't know about this mcas system. they blamed boeing. >> we respect that input. i'll never shy away from pilot commentary. in fact, i prefer that hard, candid feedback. i think it's good. it's good for us. it makes us a better company and in the end it makes for safety in flight. >> that's pretty strong.

how did boeing's bottom line do we think factor into his admission now? >> he says safety is their number one priority. that's a value of the company. but it's clear that it's costing this company a lot of money. the 737 is its most profitable and one of the most popular planes. he said there will be 150 million new customers in asia every year flying. and they like that market likes the 737. boeing is a great american company. it leads the dow many times. so they are doing everything. they finished the software fix that we talked about and submitted it to the faa and are waiting for the faa's approval. it could be as soon as this month. what you heard them say is that this has damaged public trust and confidence in flying. >> to that issue, do you think boeing would even consider rebranding this plane? >> as you know, president trump suggested that in a tweet. so i asked him about this.

he said this is not a rebranding issue. this is a safety issue. >> i think it is good that he spoke up. everybody that knows him says he is a really good ceo. i was curious about his demeanor offcamera because on camera he seems so clinical and a tad distant considering the pain that the two accidents have caused. can you tell us anything about him? >> i mean, he is, you know, dyed in the wool kind of boeing employee. he is an iowa farm boy who started off as an intern and made his way up to ceo. you can see he is a big-time ceo. they do a lot of defense work. he is buttoned up. so there was a change in tone in talking about personally apologizing to the families. >> i appreciate him talking to you. >> we appreciate you being here, as well. bring us more interviews like that. >> norah walked in the room and said i'm back.

investigation. >> the president continues to insist there was no obstruction. robert mueller made it clear he has not cleared the president on that issue. >> new converts to the impeach camp viewed his remarks as essentially him tossing the ball congress' way. >> what do you say to someone in the flying public who says i'm not comfortable getting on a boeing 737 max? >> it will take some time to earn that public confidence. >> people living here in canton tell me they do feel like they dodged a bullet. the weather moved out of here, headed east now, giving people enough time to finally pick up the pieces. >> and a critical hearing, a judge could grant a restraining order that would prevent the state health officials from refusing to renew the license here at planned parenthood. >> i do not believe it is appropriate for me to speak further about the investigation or to comment on the actions of the justice department before congress. >> i don't have anything more to say and i'm leaving.

see, that there my friends is conviction of a man who has booked a nonrefundable vacation and he's not going to let congress screw it up. >> robert mueller has everybody ta talking today. something to say about what he said or didn't say. >> a lot of people want him to say more too. >> i'm gayle king with anthony mason and tony dokoupil. more presidential candidates want congress to start an impeachment probe of president trump after robert mueller's first comments on his investigation. mueller said yesterday he could not exonerate the president and suggested only congress can formally accuse the sitting president. >> some democrats claim he was pointing the way to impeachment. this morning, president trump said mueller is conflicted in response to questions from our paula reed. >> robert mueller should have never been chosen because he wanted the fbi job and he didn't get it and the next day he was

picked as special counsel. so you tell somebody i'm sorry, you can't have the job, and then after you say that, he's going to make a ruling on you, doesn't work that way. >> major garrett joins us now with more. major, robert mueller chooses his words very carefully. what words stood out to you, what messages were embedded in those remarks? >> reporter: i don't really think is a process by which you have to read between the lines. it was almost a jeopardy question, the way robert mueller put it yesterday. there is a process other than the criminal justice system to charge a sitting president. what is the answer? the answer is, impeachment. essentially that was the way robert mueller laid this before congress. and it is now up to house democrats to take that implicit and explicit message from the special counsel, citing the constitutional prerogatives, and the means by which to take up this question, is a behavior of

the sitting president acceptable under the long-standinging constitutional definition, high crimes and misdemeaners, to keep him in office or begin a process of deciding whether or not charges should be brought and the senate should try the president. that's the essence of it. something just happened this morning that i think is very important. in addition to the tweet that anthony just read, the president also tweeted this, i had nothing to do with russia helping me to get elected. it was a crime that didn't exist. why is that important? i believe that it is the very first time president trump on twitter or anywhere else has said russia helped to get him elected. previously everyone in the white house said no, we went to wisconsin, we went to michigan, we went to pennsylvania, that's why we got elected. this is the sum total of the mueller investigation creeping in, not only to the public consciousness, but to the consciousness of the president and those around him. >> major acknowledgement indeed. robert mueller began his remarks

and ended his remarks by calling attention to the fact that russia interfered in the election and thought that should be important on the minds of all americans. the question now, with this acknowledgement and this tweet from the president, is the white house doing something to ensure that the 2020 election will not be interfered with in a similar fashion? >> sarah sanders said yesterday in the white house driveway, the white house and the administration have an all of government approach to prevent any kind of meddling in the 2020 election, taking it more seriously, she said, than the previous administration. meaning the obama administration. that is a long-standing talking point. but it is important to take the white house assessment of the mueller report at face value, which is the intrusion was real, it is a threat in 2020, and that can no longer be contested even though the president at times gives it a try. >> what do you think the president's tweet this morning suggests about how the white house feels about impeachment. >> well, i think it -- it feels the same way it always has about

impeachment. number one, it is a political gift for the white house. that's what they want to project. they want to continue to suggest to democrats it is folly for you to do this. i'm not saying that is true. i'm saying the white house wants to project that as a way to discourage democrats from going down this road. the white house believes house democrats are still reluctant to go there, but unless this process begins, no one will know for sure. the white house is trying to play a poker player's game, bluffing their way through this idea that if you go down the road from impeachment, you're going to guarantee the president's re-election. >> major, before you go, how should we the people process this? if you listen to the white house, they're saying case closed. if you listen to the democrats, they're saying this is really impeachment referral. how should the public process what they heard yesterday? >> it can be both, gayle. the criminal matter, it is essentially case closed. no charges brought on a broader conspiracy, or obstruction. that's not a standard necessarily for a president. a standard for a president is

did you do something in office that the congress decides is unbecoming and destructive of the institution of the presidency itself. it is a separate noncriminal question which congress, led by the house democrats, is going to have to confront sooner rather than later. >> major garrett, thank you. jan crawford will sit down later today with attorney general liam barr for an exclusive interview. you can see that tomorrow here on "cbs this morning." elton john teamed up with bernie taupin, with songs like "tiny dancer" to candle on the wind," he comes to studio 57 with jamie bell who plays him in the new movie "rocket man." ahead, what he says it is really like working with sir elton. >> i can't wait. kanye west is discussing his bipolar disorder with david letterman. >> i'm not a doctor. i can just tell you what i'm feeling at the time.

pairing? in the movie elton goes to a record company and says, please, give me a shot. they didn't want to but they handeded him a bunch of files. >> i wasn't there for that meeting. i had said something prior to thatnd i met with the gentleman in the movie, ray williams, and left an envelope of material with him. >> just chance that it ended up with elton john. >> i loved your performance. bernie, i loved the hair. >> grow it back. >> i wonder what it was like? did you have a meeting and say this is what i should do? >> i reached out to dexter and said could i get an email for bernie, please? he contacted me and we set up a meeting in santa barbara, drove up there, had a nice dinner. >> absolutely. >> i had bernie questions.

over years. >> what do you mean? >> he's notorious for being a prickly character, but i think the prickly character came from those addictions. >> which you had some discussions about which you see in the film. >> yeah. i like to think i'm somewhat of an anchor throughout the film, but i dope want to come across as squeaky clean either, because we've all had our problems with addictions, you know. we all deal with them in a different way. but as you say, i hope i was some barometer of good taste. >> you told him the truth. >> were you an elton fan before, jamie? >> yeah. even more so now. >> how so? why? >> i had karaoke machine and "candle in the wind" was o it. i didn't know who norma jean was or bernie, but i was so moved.
