country, and they've advised nonessential american embassy personnel and private u.s. citizens should do the same. also tonight, speaker nancy pelosi wants a white house briefing on the ukraine russia situation for congress. so we have two reports tonight from here in washington and inside ukraine. cbs' ed o'keefe will start us off from the white house. good evening, ed. >> reporter: good evening, norah. a major shift in the white house on russian shift with ukraine. leaders is discussing a diplomatic solution. europe is preparing for the possibility of a new war. >> i had a very, very, very good meeting with all the european leaders. >> reporter: president biden today consulted with european allies in the situation room readying thousands of u.s. troops for possible mission in the region. >> it's very clear that the russians have no intention now of de-escalating. >> reporter: the pentagon placed

8,500 troops stationed in the u.s. on alert ready to deploy to n.a.t.o.'s eastern flank within days if the situation deteriorates. >> we are not deplying, we are not saying diplomacy is dead. >> reporter: but the administration ordered u.s. embassy families out of u.k. and ordered not to travel to russia as more troops were sent into belarus and military exercises in the baltic sea. after this weekend is he more or less concerned of the possibility of a russia invasion of ukraine. >> he said last week that military action by russia could come at any time. that remains his point of view. >> reporter: the u.s. is hoping its own show of force would deter putin. fighter jets could be sent to n.a.t.o. countries as well as warships. the uss "truman" arrived in the eastern mediterranean today for long-scheduled exercises. n.a.t.o. is bolstering defenses with the danish, and dutch sending troops. if putin invades-- >> russia will pay heavy price. >> reporter: hasn't forced the

russian leader to pull back 130,000 troops on ukraine's border. with more of his forces into belarus the administration has shifted tactics. what happened in the last few days that prompted the pentagon to present specific potential troop deployments to the president or to put it another way, why now? >> it's a part of an ongoing contingency planning process and discussion. >> reporter: also tonight, the president was asked by a fox news reporter whether rising inflation would be a liability in this year's elections. he gave this testy response as reporters walked out. >> that's a great asset. more inflation. what a stupid son of a bitch. >> reporter: the department of homeland security warns russia could launch a cyber attack against the u.s., but u.s. officials say they see no signs moscow is currently preparing such an attack. norah. >> o'donnell: ed o'keefe, thank

if the russians show up. you can take shelter here if the russians invade. ukraine is not a wealthy country. now its freedom and its young democracy are threatened by its colossal neighbor, and wso say are president vladimir putin's ambitions to create a new russian empire. tomorrow, we're expecting another shipment of emergency military assistance from the u.s. including munitions to arrive here in kiev. norah. >> o'donnell: thank you, holly williams. well, it was a roller coaster ride of a day in the stock market. fears over what's going on in ukraine along with questions

over the federal reserve's plan to curb inflation sent stocks into a freefall with the dow down more than 1,000 points by just afternoon. but after a late-day rally, all three indexes closed up in positive territory. >> all right, we're turning now to covid where another fight over restrictions is headed to court. cbs' meg oliver reports from outside a school in arlington, virginia, where the battle over masks is pitting parent against parent. >> reporter: there's a face off over face coverings in virginia public schools after the governor's executive order letting parents opt out of school mask mandates took effect today. >> it's parents that should decide the health measures taken for their children. >> reporter: and many parents agree. this morning, a group of them in stafford county arrived at their children's elementary school with the intent to send them in without masks despite the district's policy. six families were turned away and offered virtual lessons instead.

>> there is no doubt that masks have played a role in our children's lack of education and those masks are directly impacting their ability to learn. >> reporter: but seven county school boards have filed a lawsuit against governor youngkin seeking to block the executive order. the lawsuit represents more than 350,000 students across virginia, arguing that the state constitution gives local school boards the authority to enact policies that protect the health and well being of students and staff. it also cites a state law requiring school systems to follow c.d.c. health guidelines which recommends universal masking in schools regardless of vaccination status. amber bowmer, one of 13 parents in a separate lawsuit, has long covid and asthma. >> we are fighting for all of the children of virginia, and all of the teachers and the parents and all the immunocompromised individuals who work and attend the schools within our school system. >> reporter: chris wilson, a father of two, also supports mask mandates. >> not a problem.

in the testing program. meghan fitzpatrick is an expert on infectious disease modelling. >> if we had every student take a rapid test before they went to school in the morning, that would be the gold standard. >> they say districts should try to aim for 80% participation in testing and a 24 hour turn around for results. in addition to billions in federal funding. the white house recently announced each month, that it would send an additional 10 million covid tests to schools. but for some, the help may be coming too late. we had a very high positivity rate from the start of the pandemic. so, we had to take it in to our own hands and do what we needed to do for our community. >> to try to limit remote learning districts are adopting test to stay policies where despite covid exposure, students can stay in school as soon as they are asymptomatic and testing negative. as for the tests from the white house, the districts applied to

use at their laundry business after supplies dried up in the pandemic. >> we basically rolled out the product to our laundry clients first. >> reporter: they are now selling those products here. hoping business will bubble up. >> to be able to start at these markets and build the customer base, and build the product recognition. that's super important and to do it with a community like what robert is building is just super, it's just a win/win. >> reporter: could you have ever imagined that that club would turn in to this? >> i could never see that coming. matter of fact -- >> reporter: could you see yourself as a business owner switching to that? >> no way, you would never tell me i became a grocer. i wanted a bigger club downtown, something like that i was thinking. >> reporter: now what do you want? >> locations all over t don't settle for products that give you a sort-of white smile. try crest whitening emulsions... ...for 100% whiter teeth. its highly active peroxide droplets... ...swipe on in seconds.

state. it seems like a part of california that often times people forget about. >> it's the forgotten corner of the country. there's a tremendous amount of lack of investment. >> reporter: state assembly man represents this region of southern california, known as the imperial valley, his district has the sultan sea, it's an environmental disaster j zone. as the lake dries out, it is causing chronic asthma and other respiratory diseases for those that live here. but now the race to power all the electric vehicles that automakers plan to sell can unlock a new future for this valley. >> it is an opportunity to transform the economy. >> reporter: underneath the sea is one of the largest lithium deposits in the world.

>> reporter: 100%? >> 100% at this stage. >> reporter: they will provide clean renewable energy along with the lithium, there's less impact on the environment impaired to mining lithium, which consumes a lot of water and leaves toxic residue behind. down the road in this geo thermal plant, they are switching gears to focus mainly on lithium production. >> these things are no joke. >> reporter: the ceo of energy source, he said that when they opened the plant a decade ago, geo thermal energy was the surface and this liquid lithium solution was a bi-product. >> lithium was not worth very much ten years ago. you have a lot of game opportunity here. >> yes, and there's a big place, there's opportunity for a lot of us. >> there was never a let up in progress. >> reporter: opportunity has been promised in the desert for

decades. >> this unusual city the has a date with destiny. >> reporter: the salton on sea was created in 1955. it was briefly a playground for the wealthy and well known. but run-off from nearby farms helped to create a toxic stew. eclipsing any hope of a thriving resort destination. >> the hype is real. >> reporter: he said this time is different. there's potential for thousands of new jobs and a tax base that could finally help clean up the environmental mess. you sound excited about this. but often times companies will bring in workers from somewhre else and it does nothing for those here. >> that's true, we have introduced legislation to ensure that workforce comes from here. sglee hopes the neighbors will do more in jump starting the electric future. >> what we will see is a community that is far more thriving than what it is right now. >> reporter: ben tracy, in california's imperial valley.
