miscellaneous -- mickey mouse now chairman mouse. announcer: this portion of "cbs this morning" sponsored by toyota. let's go places. welcome to "cbs this morning." attorney general loretta lynch has decided not to make the final decisions in the investigation of hillary clinton's e-mail server. that news confirmed this morning follows lynch's controversial private meeting with former president bill clinton. >> a justice department official tells cbs news lynch will announce today that she will accept the recommendation of career prosecutors on whether or not to file charges. lynch says she and the former president did not discuss the fbi investigation into clinton's use of private e-mail while she was secretary of state. nancy cordes is in washington where clinton opponents want lynch to completely step aside from the case. what does this mean. >> reporter: as attorney general, lynch doesn't have to accept the advice of her prosecutors. she typically has the latitude to go her own way. but she is now saying she will
7:04 am
essentially go along with whatever they recommend, even if she insists she didn't do anything inappropriate. >> i was arriving, he was leaving. he came on to say hello. we spoke about a number of things. there is not much more to it than that. >> reporter: for a third straight day, the attorney general insisted she did not discuss anything sensitive with the former president when they met for about half an hour on her plane at a phoenix airport. but that did not quiet the critics. >> this gets worse and worse for her. i just think this is icing on the cake. >> reporter: texas senator john cornyn and other republican leaders called on lynch to immediately recuse herself and appoint a special council in the case. donald trump called the meeting shocking. >> i thought they were joking. i thought the people who told me, i said no way. no way that is going to happen. i am just -- i'm flabbergasted by it. i think it's amazing. i've never seen anything like that it before. >> reporter: democratic leaders
7:05 am
rushed to lynch's offense. >> all i can say is loretta lynch is one of the most outstanding human beings i've ever known. >> reporter: lynch and clinton have known each other for decade. he nominated her to be the u.s. attorney for the eastern district of new york in 1999 and why some republicans have long argued she cannot be impartial as the final arbitrator into the fbi's investigation into hillary clinton's use of a private server as secretary of state. president obama ignored a question about the wisdom of the meeting on thursday. and his white house press secretary danced around it too. >> the question you're raising what potential impact does this optic have on the investigation. i'm not going to talk about it. >> reporter: but other democrats were saying publicly an error in judgment for the two to meet like that even if it was impromptu and a social visit. the attorney general is speaking at a festival in colorado late this morning and we expect she will have more to say about this decision then.
7:06 am
>> i'm sure they will. thank you, nancy. donald trump faces a very important popularity test this morning. he will speak to thousands of conservatives at the western conservative summit in denver. trump lost the colorado republican caucuses to ted cruz three months ago and now he returns as a gop's presumptive nominee trying to unite the party ahead of this month's convention. major garrett is at the colorado convention center in denver where donald trump will speak in just a few hours. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. let's simplify things if we can. what does donald trump most want right now? party unity. when does he want it? now. what better way to test that than to come here? the conservative actioni that occurs three weeks before the republican national convention. sarah palin will speak on behalf of donald trump and early endorser in the iowa caucuses and duck dine phil robertson
7:07 am
will also be here and ben sasse and erick ericsson. and also on that list are governor chris accuracy and newt gingrich. the idea currently is to announce trump's running mate the thursday or friday before the convention in cleveland. speaking of that convention, charlie, coming here for trump will be a test of whether or not he can get these conservative activists on his side and if does he that will build momentumum and if he fails that will only deepen republican anxiety about trump. >> interesting to see. thank you. "face the nation" moderator john dickerson is in aspen, colorado. that is where he has been moderating discussions at the festival and having an overall good time. >> good morning, charlie.
7:08 am
>> we saw you talking to mitt romney and others. let us begin with the democrats. how much damage is done here and, two, can she recover the whole controversy about this by simply saying, i will not make the final decision? >> well, the damage here is in the short-term. this puts a bright light on a bad story for hillary clinton. and that story is bad because the inspector general and the state department said she didn't operate within the spirit and letter of the law. recent a.p. reporting has shown both that the reasons hillary clinton is given for her e-mail server aren't exactly in reality what she has said. they have shown there was an e-mail sent worrying about this private server that she set up which was an extraordinary system that was deleted and not turned over. and also the problem, so the general problem for her is puts light on a story where a big distance between what hillary clinton has said and what we have come to know. the long-term problem is that this shines a problem -- shines
7:09 am
a light on her big problem which is the trust instinct. voters will make a determination which candidate is going to do the right thing when no one is looking and what the e-mail story shows she didn't bend over lines and this meeting bill clinton had echoes that, which is that he decided to have a meeting that at the very least looks very bad. this recusal is helpful for the moment but doesn't mean this is going away. >> john, but it's sort of -- she's not removing herself from the case. the attorney general is not removing herself from the case. she says she will accept the recommendation of the career prosecutors. why not just do away once again, with the appearance of any conflict and say i'm recusing myself? >> well, it's a good question. and whether that really matters in the end, i mean, if the fbi decides to go forward with some kind of action against hillary clinton, then it won't really matter. but in the end if the findings are not harmful to hillary
7:10 am
clinton there will always be this question that will be raised. >> i assume a fear if she removed themselves they want to appoint a special counsel and not what they want. >> that might be so. >> john, it's like this is a house of card scene. if it was so secretive they wouldn't have done it in a public place is what some people are saying and can we take them to their word they are talking about their grandkids and he is asking me about my husband. could that possibly be true? >> it might be but why have the meeting at all? she is investigating his wife and in the middle of a political campaign. the questions from voters what is the instinct by the clinton family when things like this come up if she is president? and a lot of her critics talk about the drama of the clintons. this was not a compulsory meeting and totally option meeting giving the heightened meeting and why have it at all. >> does this raise questions about bill clinton and his judgment and the role he will play in this campaign? >> he is an ex-president.
7:11 am
he is going to do what he is going to do and there will be these little eruptions so something that voters will keep in mind when they look at the two candidates, which of the two candidates will have a sort of sense of drama around them that might get in the way of their ability to govern the country and have to add bill clinton into the mix as the voters make the determination between the two candidates. >> john, have fun in aspen. thank you for joining us. >> thanks. >> john mccain and lindy graham will be john's guest on "face the nation" and a panel on leading officers on presidents and general douglas macarthur. turkey made arrests overnight. three terrorists are thought to be seen in this photo. holly williams is outside the istanbul apartment where police think the man have been staying. holly, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. this apartment building is where
7:12 am
the sued bombers are believed to have lived in the weeks before the attack. and we have been speaking with one local resident in this working class neighborhood who told us he noticed something suspicious. new security camera video shows terror in the departures area as one of the armed attackers went looking for victims. one of the suicide bombers is thought to have been a russian citizen from the north caucuses region and the two others from uzbekistan and kyrgyzstan. it's estimated that several thousands fighters from russia and a former soviet republics have joined isis. the neighborhood where the attackers apparently holed up is popular with people traveling to and from syria. this man is the local plumber and told us when one of the man asked him to fix a leaking tap just a few days ago, he noticed a strange odor in the apartment.
7:13 am
i asked the man what it was, he told us. but he just waved me away. explosive experts believe it might have been a chemical precursor used in the suicide vests. the bombs reportedly used a cocktail of substances, raising questions about how the attackers got hold of it. turkish media and a u.s. official say this man was the organizer of the massacre. ahmed sitev an isis commander from chechen. they say they are not doing enough to stop people from passing their territory and it seems some of the those foreign fighters may have targeted turkey and its biggest airport. an 8-year-old boy in critical condition this morning after found unresponsive in a pool on one of the world's

largest cruise ships. anthem of the seas was heading to bermuda when it turned to port in new jersey for the emergency. don, good morning. >> reporter: the cruise liner was only a few miles into its trip when the child was found in one of the ship's four pools. but it was the ship's proximity to shore and rapid access to emergency crews that gave the boy a chance to survival. new york city rescue crews quickly unloaded the point from an nypd helicopter and into the back of a waiting ambulance which then rushed him to a nearby hospital. the boy from maryland was found unresponsive on in a swimming pool on the caribbean crews liner anthem of the seas and according to officials, he was without oxygen for about 18 minutes. this video, shot on board the ship, shows new york fire and police boats swarming the anthem of the seas, along with the
7:15 am
coast guard. >> very, very quickly they got him down to the second deck where the medical office is. >> reporter: 54-year-old mike richie is a passenger on board the ship. >> i think four police boats and two fire boats and a couple of helicopters all came out with various medical crews to take the kid and they air-lifted him off the ship. >> reporter: anthem of the seas, one of the largest cruise ships on the planet, is no stranger to mishaps while in open ocean. in february, the ship ran into a storm on its way to florida, battling 30-foot swells and high winds that left passengers shaken and the ship damaged. and only weeks later, anthem of the seas was forced to cut a trip short after an outbreak of noro virus. anthem of the seas is already back at sea on its way to bermuda. royal caribbean confirmed to "cbs this morning" that it does not employ any lifeguards on its ships.
7:16 am
1,500 employs on the ship and no lifeguards but it provides children life vests on the ship. >> i don't know why you can't have a lifeguard. >> particularly in that setting with so many children. federal safety regulate orgs this morning investigating the first deadly crash involving a self-driving car. joshua brown was using the autopilot feature in may when he was killed in a florida highway collision. brown posted this video to youtube last year showing the car's ability to avoid an accident. his death raises big questions, not just about tesla's autopilot. kris van cleave shows us the new focus on the wider push for self-driving technology. he is in washington. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. tesla is acknowledging the government investigation into this fatal crash. now the investigators from the national transportation safety board are going to look at the tesla model s sedan as well as the autopilot feature and they will look at the performance and development of this program.
7:17 am
>> i do with my hands down here. >> reporter: joshua brown was enthusiastic about his self-driving tesla model s sedan as seen in a series of videos posted to his youtube page. >> get to your destination slightly slower but at least you don't have to worry about anything. it's just let it go. >> reporter: but in may, the former navy s.e.a. lechlt's tesla collided with a semi on the highway. the truck pulling a semi trailer made a urks turn and tesla passed underneath it and didn't stop until it passed through two fences and hit a pole. in a statement, tesla confirms the car's autopilot was activated and says neither autopilot nor the driver noticed the white side of the tractor-trailer against a brightly lit sky, so the brake was not applied. >> if the system cannot see, it's going to think it has a clear path. so that is where the human comes in to be a second check for the
7:18 am
computer and just sort of hit the brakes accordingly. >> reporter: tesla's ceo elon musk demonstrated autopilot for carter evans two years ago. since 2014, california has been keeping track of accidents involving self-driving cars. it has counted a total of 15 but none were fatal. tesla says the florida accident marks the first known fatality in more than 130 miles of driving the model s in autopilot mode. >> i think consumers need to be reassured this is a safe technology and if that involves more testing from tesla and that is something they need to take a look at in order to for people to feel more comfortable with using it. >> reporter: tesla stresses that the autopilot feature is not a truly autonomous or self-driving car feature. in fact, the company says drivers are required to keep their hands on the wheel and need to be prepared to take over at any time. the investigation is preliminary and likely take several months
7:19 am
at the very least. the police investigation into that fatal crash is still ongoing. >> more to find out. thank you. a powerful thunderstorm swamped the las vegas valley last night. >> i've never seen a hail storm like this in las vegas. >> reporter: hail stones the size of golf balls that pounded backyards and parked cars and leaving areas blanketed in ice. flood water rushed city streets and left some stranded. eight people were rescued from the flash flooding include one man and his cat and two people hospitalized and wind gusts toppling 60 miles per hour brought down trees and power lines and forcing highways to close. the convicted murderer gets a new chance at freedom. ahead, why a judge ordered a new

♪ it is friday, july 1st, 2016. can you believe that already? welcome back to "cbs this morning." there is more real news ahead, including new fallout after the attorney general's meeting with bill clinton. we will talk to cbs news justice reporter paula reed how loretta lynch will not decide any final charges in the hillary clinton e-mail server probe. first, here's a look at today's "eye opener" at 8:00. >> as attorney general, lynch doesn't have to accept the advice of her prosecutors. she has the latitude to go her own way. >> can we take them at their word we are talking about our grandkids and he is asking me about my husband? could that possibly be true? >> it might be true but why have the meeting at all? she is investigating his wife
8:01 am
and she is in the middle of a political campaign. >> what did donald trump most right now? party unity and wants it now and what better way to test that proposition than come here. >> not doing enough to stop foreign fighters from passing through its territory and coming from isis to hear. >> rapid emergency crews that gave the boy a chance at survival. >> investigators from the nhtsa are looking at the tesla sedan and autopilot feature and look at the performance and development. >> july fourth is on monday. but remember, fireworks can be dangerous. last year, two nfl players lost fingers setting off fireworks. they blew their fingers off which is awful. a good reminder if you go to play with fireworks, play soccer. >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and norah o'donnell. attorney general loretta lynch will not decide if charges will be filed over hillary

clinton's private e-mail server. a justice department official confirms career prosecutors will have the final say. that official says lynch made that decision before promptu meeting with bill clinton. >> you don't believe that gives off the appearance of impropriety while your agency is investigate is his wife? >> my agency is looking into matters of state department policies and issues and is being handled by career investigators and career agents who always follow the facts and the law. >> reporter paula reed covers the justice department for us. good morning. >> good morning. >> so this is a change in attorney general lynch's role. but it does not mean she is stepping aside. what does it mean? >> that is exactly right. she is not recusing or removing
8:03 am
herself from the case. what she has said she will take any recommendation that comes to her from the fbi investigators and career department of justice prosecutors who are working on this case. now with most of these investigations, the fbi looks at all of the evidence, they talk to prosecutors and they make a recommendation to the attorney general who can go with that recommendation or decide to make lesser charges or more significant charges. so here she is giving up that role as a final decider and says she will take whatever recommendation comes her way. >> why doesn't she simply recuse herself entirely? >> charlie, i think the reason she didn't want to step off this case she didn't want to risk a appointee coming in and having power over the case and could have passed it on to security deputy sally yates but she doesn't think anything improper with her meeting with bill clinton earlier in this week. she does not believe she needs to recuse herself and this resolution creates a politically
8:04 am
advantageous resolution for everyone. >> does it mean anything, paula, that the decision was made before the impromptu meeting? >> the department of justice offerings say this decision was made before the meeting on the tarmac but the fact it's only coming out now. gayle, this is an investigation. there have been many leaks. we don't get too much information about what is going on behind closed doors into this investigation. so the fact that this is being made public, again, it's a politically advantageous resolution to what is becoming an increasingly controversial meeting. >> paula, thank you very much for joining us this morning. syrian flees that country's civil war are finding it hard to settle in europe or the united states but canada is embracing them. this morning's "the new york times" right there on the front page reads refuges encounter a foreign word -- welcome. reporting jodi kantor spoke to canadian who help refuges to find jobs and homes and she found the process can be surprising really for both sides on. jodi kantor is a cbs news

contributor and her article is one of the most e-mailed items on the times today. people see the word syria and refuges and say no thanks, we don't want them here, please don't come. what do you think makes canadians so open about this? >> canadians in some ways are placing the opposite bet on syrian refuges of a lot of the rest of the world. they are not only taking in syrian refuges, but they are saying come into our homes. we are ordinary citizens and have no connection to the middle east but we will volunteer our time and money and spend a year of our lives getting you settled. >> why do you think they are doing that? >> if you look at the article, it's an nytimes.com/refuges. canadians has a different attitude towards immigration and borders. we are a time of closing and protection and fear all over the world. canada wants more population. they have not experienced a 9/11
8:06 am
type of event in their lifetime. readers are telling us they are moved about the general rossity and trust they see here and feels different than what they see in most of the world. >> it does feel different. president obama said we will take just 10,000 refuges. so far, we have only taken about half of that amount? >> yes. to be fair, we don't know what is going to happen with this canadian project, right? of course, there is always the fear of terrorism. and not only that, but this is a really odd couple relationship. the people we covered are toronto residents, they are very much like citizens of new york or san francisco or chicago. they are taking in these families. the families we reported on are from small towns. they have first and second grade education. only a few of them have what we would think of as careers -- >> and the refuges are afraid who are coming here. >> when the -- these refuges are not used to being wanted or
8:07 am
welcomed. they have been barely hanging on for years. and when they find out that a bunch of strangers are going to spend a year helping them, their attitude is who are you? i can't believe this. what is your motive? >> like what is the catch? >> yes. a part what have is fascinating to me about the reporting is watching these two sides work out their relationship, right? i mean, these families eventually have to make money but should the syrian women work? that is not something they would have done back home. are their husbands comfortable with them working? >> you capture this humanity, i think. that is what struck me about reading it. i got a lump reading it about talking about the individual stores. >> it's the humanity and the kurlte culture. i love the photographs. >> what happens when the year of sponsorship is up? >> that is part of the suspense. if you read the stories, there are all of the emotional moments about the bonds between these people. there is a birth story.
8:08 am
and, yet, you say when the year is up, does the financial relationship continue if the families are not self-sufficient? do they get more help? then in 20 or 30 years, what is their relationship looking like? and, also, are these new families going to be okay in canada? do they have the skills, even the language skills? some of them are not literate in arabic, let alone english. do they have the communication skills to survive after a year. >> but it starts with a good idea to welcome them. >> especially in the context of the worldwide refuge crisis which is so stuck. what i think we would say is that this is an interesting area and there are, by the way, discussions about bringing something like this to the united states. >> thank you, jodi. >> thank you. transgender people can serve openly in the armed forces after a historic decision. defense secretary ash carter made the announcement yesterday. the move lifts one of the last bans facing service members.

8:11 am
world is much more important than what could be under our loathe. gender is completely independent of your sex. >> reporter: does that mean gender and sex are not the same? a lot of people are confused about that. >> it is confusing and not obvious. yes, your sense of gender do you consider yourself a male or female may not align what your doctor told your parents when you were born. when it aligns and most of the time everything is fine in society. when it doesn't align, big problem. >> i think the military says they are helping to pay for transition surgery. >> that's right. yeah. and what landon wilson told me yesterday he is so happy about this but he said, look, our military commanders have to be responsible. they have to take a leadership role here. he is still concerned. >> this holiday weekend, "time" magazine looks at 240 reasons to celebrate america right now. i'd like to point out reason number 38. you might recognize somebody there. ahead, learn how brad is better than ever and the magic of
