tonight the legal battle between former president donald trump and the federal prosecutors investigating january 6th is nearing a crucial showdown in court just as the republican presidential race is heating up and his own former vice president is speaking out. trump's legal team has now been ordered to respond as soon as possible to the justice department, which is seeking to restrain comments about the case made by trump, who has been raging against special counsel jack smith both on the campaign trail and on social media. this weekend trump's lawyers sought a delay, but the judge tanya chutkan denied that request and gave trump a monday deadline to respond. trump pleaded not guilty this past week to criminal charges related to his alleged role in trying to overturn the 2020 election. cbs's willie james inman is in washington tracking the latest developments. willie, good evening. >> reporter: good evening, robert. ahead of monday's standoff over what former president donald trump can and can't say about this case, trump's lawyer john lauro argued that the former

president said nothing wrong. >> we call it a sham indictment. and the man that's doing it, i really believe he's mentally ill. >> reporter: ahead of what could be a contentious courtroom battle, former president trump slammed the indictment brought by special counsel jack smith. his legal team is planning to ask for a motion to dismiss the charges in the january 6th case. >> this is what's called a swiss cheese indictment. it has so many holes that we're going to be identifying and litigating a number of motions that we're going to file on first amendment grounds. >> reporter: former attorney general william barr suggested that could be an uphill battle. >> well, it's certainly a challenging case but i don't think it runs afoul of the first amendment. >> reporter: a new cbs news/ugov poll found just over half of americans believe trump tried to stay in office illegally. most americans also believe the indictments against trump are upholding the rule of law and defending democracy. at the same time a majority of those polled believe the investigations are aimed at

stopping trump's 2024 campaign. and that number was even higher among republicans. trump's grip on the republican party remains strong as he and his rivals campaign ahead of the first gop debate, which trump might skip later this month. few of trump's rivals have been critical of him, but former new jersey governor chris christie came out swinging this weekend on "cbs sunday mornings." >> he's a completely self-centered, self-possessed, self-consumed angry old man, and he doesn't care about anybody else other than him. >> reporter: trump is also pushing for a venue change in this case, possibly west virginia, but experts tell cbs news that that is unlikely to happen. robert? >> thank you, willie james inman. turning now to the weather. record flooding in alaska caused a dam to burst north of juneau that triggered a landslide, sending this house into a river. no one was inside. people in the area were warned to leave. more serious storms are brewing for a large part of the country.

threat zones and any ship carrying goods to russia will be considered a legitimate military target that can be attacked. >> ramy inocencio, thank you. today pope francis wrapped up a global catholic youth festival with an outdoor mass at a waterside park in portugal. but the week wasn't just about celebrating. as cbs news's chris livesay reports, the pope also addressed what he called the tremendous plague within the clutch. >> reporter: think of it as one part church and one part lollapalooza. one of the biggest gatherings of catholics in the world. fueled by music, unbridled excitement and its very own rock star. approximately 1.5 million attendants including nearly 30,000 from the u.s. alone. sam larson is from wisconsin. >> it's joyous and everyone here is just loving the lord, loving each other. it's beautiful. >> reporter: but it hasn't all been a celebration. francis blasted bishops here over a report earlier this year that says nearly 5,000 minors had been sexually abused by

city. thanks for staying with us. marjory stoneman douglas high school the scene of one of the deadliest shootings in u.s. history is scheduled to be demolished in the coming days. before that ballistics experts re-enacted the 2018 massacre. nearly 140 live rounds were fired inside the school friday as part of a civil lawsuit against the officer who was supposed to protect the school that day. cbs's manuel bojorquez reports. >> reporter: ballistics experts spent hours inside the school's 1200 building, shooting live rounds that would mimic the sounds heard during the 2018 mass shooting. [ gunshots ] eerie, painful but necessary says tony montalto whose daughter gina was killed. >> why a re-enactment? >> the re-enactment is an attempt to disprove the falsehoods that were mentioned during the trial of the failed deputy scott peterson. >> reporter: details of the re-enactment included setting off a fire alarm that blared during the shooting, retracing

the shooter's footsteps along the second and third floors and firing up to 139 rounds, the number fired that day. all to see what it may have sounded like outside, where surveillance cameras captured former school resource officer scott peterson on a golf cart and later taking cover outside the building on his police radio for more than 40 minutes. he did not go inside to try to stop the shooter, who killed 17 people. >> the defendant is not guilty. >> reporter: a jury in june found him not guilty of several charges stemming from his response to the shooting in a separate criminal trial. his attorneys argued he could not tell where the shots were coming from due to echoes. >> he is still guilty of running away from our children. he is still guilty of running away from the students and teachers who depended on him for protection. >> again, that was manuel bojorquez reporting. turning now to health news and the biden administration's plan to wipe out hepatitis c in the u.s. the cdc estimates more than 2 million people have the virus,

and it kills more than 15,000 americans every year. even though the disease is curable. as cbs news chief medical correspondent dr. john lapook explains, the high cost of treatment is a big obstacle for many patients. >> reporter: when william glover bay was diagnosed with hepatitis c in 1992, he never imagined what his doctor would tell him 24 years later. >> he said william, your liver has cirrhosis. >> reporter: although glover bay was aware he had the virus, many are not. about 40% of the more than 2 million americans infected with the virus are unaware they have it. and that's contributed to new infections spreading. >> this is a silent killer. >> reporter: dr. frances collins was director of the national institutes of health for 12 years. >> when you first get the virus, you may have 5, 10, 15, 20 years of feeling pretty normal. meanwhile, that virus is doing its damage. >> reporter: that damage can include liver failure and liver

cancer. the virus is usually spread through contact with blood from an infected person. but there's hope. in 2013 a new generation of oral anti-viral drugs was approved that could cure hepatitis c. >> one pill a day. 12 weeks. almost no side effects. 98% cure rate. >> reporter: one obstacle, treatment costs tens of thousands of dollars. >> at its core is this largely a health equity issue? >> this is a health equity issue. these are often people on medicaid. they may be people who are uninsured. >> reporter: after leaving the nih, dr. collins became the acting science adviser to president biden and approached him with a bold proposal, to eliminate hepatitis c in the united states. >> if we could get access to the drugs for people who are infected, we calculate in ten years you would save the federal government $13.3 billion in health care costs that we

wouldn't have to spend. liver transplants, liver cancer, liver cirrhosis. you have saved billions of dollars. and tens of thousands of lives. what's not to love here? >> reporter: in march president biden gave dr. collins his answer. >> okay. we're on it. do it. and by the way, collins, you're in charge. >> how did that feel? >> good. i'm obsessed about this. >> reporter: to help drive down the cost dr. collins pointed to a program implemented in louisiana as a possible model. it began with the support of republican senator bill cassidy, who happens to be a physician who has treated people with hepatitis c. >> the goal was to use a subscription model. we call it the netflix model. you pay a flat fee to the drug company, get as much drug as you can, and you treat as many as you can. and that was going to be principally for the medicaid, the uninsured and the incarcerated place. >> reporter: after the program began in july 2019, the number of people beginning treatment

increased dramatically, from 288 i the first three months to 1584 in the next three months. even with the pandemic slowing treatment, the total number of patients treated has grown to more than 14,000. >> it is possible that you can treat a lot more patients than you've previously treated if you take the cost of the medication, if you eliminate that as a barrier. >> reporter: president biden has proposed spending $12.3 billion over the next ten years to help eliminate hepatitis c. but congressional support for that initiative will depend heavily on a pending analysis from the budget office. >> good policy is good politics. but everybody in congress knows somebody with hepatitis c. if the administration comes up with a good plan and it can justify what it's asking for and we can show success elsewhere, i'd like to think that we can go to members of congress and get buy-in. >> reporter: for william glover bay treatment of his hepatitis c

in 2016 helped turn his life around. having likely contracted the virus by sharing needles, he's now healthy and drug-free, married, has three children, and is a community health worker for johns hopkins medicine in baltimore. well, you may be one of the soldiers in the future who go into the community and say hey, let me tell you what the story is. because you know, hearing it from the head of the national institutes of health is one thing. hearing it from a community leader who's been there is another. >> and i'm a willing participant. i give back every day. that's what my job is, to give back. >> that was dr. john lapook reporting. there's a lot more news ahead on the "cbs overnight news."

as heat waves like this become more common. eng is telling his clients to avoid the sun if they can. >> so that means running early in the morning, running late in the evening, running in the shade or running indoors. >> reporter: marathon runners are being advised to acclimatize their bodies to the heat. that means exercising in higher temperatures 10 to 14 days ahead of a race so the body adjusts. eng also suggests runners wear lighter clothing and slow down their pace. >> if you find yourself breathing hard, that's a very clear sign that you must slow down. >> reporter: warning signs for heatstroke include dizziness, headache and confusion. in this heat it's more important than ever to stay hydrated. >> making sure that you run with some kind of water or sports drink so that you are hydrating alon the way. by the time you're thirsty, you're already dehydrated. >> reporter: you can't outrun the heat, but you can be prepared for it. michael george, cbs news, new york. now to some signs of hope for the environment. utah's great salt lake is

shore. the flies are back on the shore. it tells us that if we can get water to this lake the lake will take care of itself. but -- >> you've got to get water. >> yeah. and relying on mother nature to do this mammoth snowstorm season again is not a good strategy. >> reporter: utah got more snow this past winter than it's received in at least 40 years. as that snow melts, the rivers that feed the great salt lake are running high and fast. >> a little further. >> reporter: mike freeman of the u.s. geological survey is tracking the flow on the bear river. >> the bear river provides about a little under half of the total volume that goes into the great salt lake. >> reporter: it's a bounty badly needed after a long drought, says utah's director of natural resources joel ferry. >> it's a 20-year drought at the very tail end of the worst drought in 1200 years. and it was dire.

and then -- >> reporter: the heavens opened. >> the heavens opened. this last year we received over 200% precipitation statewide. >> reporter: as well as his government job ferry runs a ranch that's been in his family for five generations. >> when we were here a year ago, this was parched. >> yeah. this was. nothing would grow here if we didn't irrigate. and now it's -- well, it's been flooded. >> reporter: flooded by the bear river. in spite of that ferry is still pushing for more conservation to send more water to the great salt lake. >> we might be out of drought today but we're preparing for the next one. it's coming. i guarantee you that we will be in drought within the next five years. >> reporter: last year we saw university of utah scientist kevin perry measuring arsenic and other heavy metals in the dust of the dry lake-bed, which is the source for dust storms that threaten the health of millions in the salt lake city region. >> you can see this wall of dust, and it reduces the

visibility, and people are very concerned about what might be in the dust that they're breathing. >> reporter: the risk of dust storms has not gone away. even with this year's water level rise of about five feet. much of the lake bed remains dry. >> we need to gain 11 feet for it to be stable. >> we would be in water here. >> oh, yes. we would be in water. >> so it's not mission accomplished, hang our hat, we're done. it's go to work, really all hands on deck to continue to save that lake. >> reporter: it's a lake that is still challenged, but from brine flies to boaters is slowly returning to life. john blackstone, great salt lake. >> t
