their report out this morning found warning signs were missed by federal law enforcement and capitol police. >> part of the reason it was overlooked is people were saying this just can't happen. and these groups of folks, they can't do that. now we know they can. we know that what happens on the internet can be translated into physical action on the capitol grounds or in towns across this country. we've got to treat domestic terrorism with the seriousness that it deserves. >> these police officers were put, as i said, in impossible positions. they didn't have adequate training or adequate training. they didn't have adequate barriers, they didn't have the intelligence to know what was coming. and yet, they valiantly supported the effort to protect the capitol, protecting the vice president, protecting all the members of congress, protecting democracy. >> reporter: the report says around 75% of the capitol police officers working on the 6th did not have protective equipment like helmets and shields. one unit wasn't able to access

their gear because it was locked in a bus. some riot shields were shattered when used. >> when the acting chief of staff of the army was asked about how come this didn't come together right away, and he said, you know, the national guard is incredible, but you just can't pick this moment to have it be like a pickup game. like they're all going to be able to combine with no contingency plan in place. he said this was a super bowl of attacks and you need a plan. >> the focus of the report was on the response and not the whys, the things leading up to this attack. but there are a couple of points in there where they reference the crowd that had gathered for president trump's speech, his speech on the mall is given in its entirety as an appendix. would the attack on the capitol have happened without that event on the ellipse?

>> no. this wouldn't have happened if he hadn't done all those things. his claims of this -- of this election is what led to this. >> our job was not to go back and talk about what happened in terms of the motivation, it was about, okay, once it happened, you know, what did we do here in the capitol and how could this have happened and how can we ensure it never happens again? >> doesn't somebody need to look at the how, not just the why? >> yes! >> at the same time, you have the justice department pursuing 450 prosecutions right now. i think you're going to find a lot of information that you could only find in one way, and that's to pursue this through the legal system, and that will lead you to new places if it's necessary to go there. >> doesn't that kind of give a pass, though, to the rhetoric and the conspiracy theorys that are being spread, even by members of the senate about the election and what happened on january 6?

the justice department is looking purely at, you know, criminal activity on the day of january 6. >> okay. so i just want to enter seed here, because roy and i don't agree on this point. our country needs this 9/11-style commission to get to the bottom of all this. while all the prosecutions are going on, you can be looking at the causes and everything. but our mission right now was to protect this capitol going forward. >> reporter: the senate rules committee and the homeland security and governmental affairs committee jointly made 20 recommendations, including appointing a new capitol police chief, enhancing communication between law enforcement agencies, improving coordination across federal, state, and local governments and evaluating threats of violence on social media. marking a rare moment of agreement in a very divided congress. >> we believe that our duty was not just to say oh, what a mess this was and we disagree. >> part of the message here is that we can figure this out

together. >> reporter: senators klobuchar and blount will pursue legislation that will allow the capitol police chief to ask the national guard for assistance, if needed. they tell us in part, it welcomes the analysis and agrees improvements are needed, specific to intelligence analysis and dissemination, but insisted at no point prior to the 6th did it receive actionable intelligence about a large-scale attack. we learned the number two attack in the department who was involved in the response on january 6 was forced to resign. >> our kris van cleave reporting there. you're watching the "cbs overnight news." feeling sluggishsh or weighed down? it could be a sign that your digegestive syststem isn't w wog atat it's bestst takingng metamucilil everydayn help. metamucil l psyllium f fiber, gs to trar p

along the western cape of south africa, they have a shark problem. but the problem is, there aren't many sharks any more. debra patta went on a search for answers. >> reporter: it's a bumpy ride as we head off with these shark experts. this was once the shark capital of the world. but now the apex predator, which has survived over 400 million years, is in deep trouble. four years ago, you would see

between 5 to 20 great white sharks a day during peak season. now you would be lucky to see that many in an entire year. this trip just happened to be one of those lucky days. so no great white sharks is an alarm. >> yeah. it is sad. that was excellent timing. >> what happened? >> reporter: this is the first white shark she's seen in over two years. getting a sample is crucial. not so easy when your subject keeps on hitting you with its me curial movements. but after several attempts, there is calls for celebration..

but after several attempts, there is calls for celebration. >> what does it mean to get a sample from the great white? >> so it can give us an indication of whether we have new sharks coming in. >> reporter: so where have all the other s sharks gogone? mamany scienentists believe long-line fishing is one of the main culprits. it legally targets smaller shark species, exported to australia for fish and chips. the problem is this is also the shark's food. >> so we are depleting their food resources. if you deplete the food resources, it creates greater competition between individuals, which makes it more individual for each individual white shark to survive. >> reporter: then there's the problem of fishermen inadvertently catching sharks. >> they put down the big nets and they catch sharks.

>> so itit's collalateral dama. >> itit's c collaterall damage. >> reporter: some blame the disappearance on another predator, killer orca whales saying they have chased the shark population awaway. but she's not buying this. orcas and great whites have lived within close proximity of this area before with no problems. >> my biggest fear is whether we are arguing whether they move or being killed off, we lose the few still left. >> reporter: over 100 miles away in another hot spot, the shark population has also declined dramatically. she's watched the numbers dwindle firsthand. and for 12 years, he's been a shock spotter, sounding the alarm when they swim dangerously close. but that siren has been see relate for a long time. >> they are very on top of the food chain, so they keep the

seals population in check. >> reporter: without the sharks circling the bay, there's been a proliferation of seals. more seals mean more fish are being eaten, affecting the delicate ecosystem of the ocean. an ocean we depend on for oxygen. >> if you don't have the top predators keeping everything in check, our oceans will eventually die. so protecting the oceans is protecting ourselves. >> reporter: great whites are often incorrectly portrayed as blood irs thirsty killers preying on humans. debra patta. so the quest to make a more human robot is taking a big step forward in italy. scientists there are working on robots that can detect and respond to all kinds of human emotions. ian lee has this story. >> reporter: able is learning to

smile, snarl, and frown. 20 motors under his artificial skin give the robot emotions just like us. engineers in italy hope some day able will be a friend for people with cognitive disorders like autism or also himer's. this researcher says we want able to know how people are feeling to keep them healthy, not just physically butmentally and emotionally. to make able look eerily real, they teamed up with a special effects artist. right now, someone has to wear sensors for the robot to recognize their emotions. the next step may seem like something out of science fiction. >> to give able a human brain. >> reporter: with the help of tissue taken from stem cells. >> it's an aggregate of stem

cells which self-organize to resemble the structure and function of a human organ. >> reporter: scientists say that would allow able to read our expressions all on his own. and if they're successful, i ex when you humble yourself

>> it should be great. it's over there. >> reporter: it doesn't take long to spot real life giants. >> it's beyond, it's beyond. incredible. >> reporter: they are hutchback whales we can see, and now hear, too. fofor the firirst timee scienen have proof off humpback's singig in this area, not just i in t t caribbean breeding grounds. >> there's a r real performance going on out in the water. >> yeahah, absolutelyly. >> repeporter: julia analyzezede thanan 6,000 0 hours of underw recordings captured by cornell scientists and couldn't believe her ears. >> all of a sudden in the background it starts q quiet an gegets l louder. i was s so exciteded to heaear . >> reporteter: they s sound mysteriousus, even eerie to us. but to whales they may be love songs, loud and long, sometimes lasting hours. >> they all sing the same song within a population, and that song changes from year to year, kind of like pop songs.

>> reporter: one of these massive humpbacks have been spotted here near new york city. but these are busy commercial waters and one of the biggest threats to these species is ship strikes. >> we've had some pretty close encounters with cargo ships. >> reporter: scientists say studying their songs could help prot protect humpbacks. >> the more people interact with them they become real and you care more. >> reporter: a siren song, asking us to listen. bradley blackburn, cbs news, new york. and get this, the songs of the humpback whales can be heard underwater for more than 20 miles. talk about range. that is the "overnight news" for this wednesday. for some of you, the news continues. for others check back with us for "cbs this morning" and follow us online at any time at cbsnews online.
