captioning sponsored by cbs this is the "cbs evening news." >> mason: good evening. i'm anthony mason. a promise made before christmas is fizzling before the fourth of july. president-elect trump told hundreds of carrier workers he brokered a deal to save their jobs. but it's not work out that way. the jobs are going south. here's dean reynolds. >> reporter: a steady downpour today did little to wash away the fact that 600 union employees at this carrier manufacturing plant will soon be out of work. where are the 600 jobs going? >> they're going to monterey, mexico. >> reporter: robert james is the president of the local union. do you feel betrayed? >> yes. >> reporter: betrayed because when president-elect trump visited the carrier plant last december, he boasted that he was saving 1100 jobs. >> and by the way, that number is going to go up very substantially as they expand this area, this plant.

so the 1100 is going to be a minimum number. ( cheers ) >> reporter: blafght companies for moving american jobs abroad was a feature of the trump campaign and saving the carrier jobs was advertised as a sign of his bargaining prowess. >> they're going to have a good christmas. >> reporter: but the truth is, of the 1100 jobs mr. trump mentioned, 400 were white collar positions that were never going way wae. only 700 union jobs were saved, but 600 others will be lost, and carrier is not paying a price. it actually received a $7 million incentive package from indiana to keep the plant, with its reduced workforce, open. see, i thought this is exactly what he said was not going to happen. >> it is what he said wasn't going to happen. that's what he told all of us. and a lot of these people voted for mr. trump. >> reporter: with the understanding that he would save their jobs? >> yes. >> reporter: duane oreskovic

voted for the president but is losing his carrier job. >> i like this job. this was a job they actually wanted to retire from. >> reporter: and that's not going to happen. >> it's not going to happen anymore. >> reporter: at the white house today, spokesman sean spicer said the carrier job cuts were long planned and nothing new. anthony, the first round of layoffs here will take effect next month, and the second in december, three days before christmas. >> mason: dean reynolds in indianapolis, thanks, dean. president trump signed a bill today giving top-ranking officials at the department of veterans affairs more power to fire incompetent workers and protect whistle blowers. the agency has struggled to provide health care other and services to military veterans. the legislation was prompted by a 2014 scandal at the phoenix v.a. medical center where many veterans died while waiting months to see a doctor. as mireya villarreal reports, the problem was even worse at

the lo los angeles v.a. >> susan and allen hoffman were happily married for 43 years, but navy veteran was living in pain. >> he had an enlarged prostate and they just kept saying, "it's not a problem,", you know, whatever. and then it started to get worse. >> reporter: he was scheduled to see a specialist in may 2013, but she says that didn't happen. >> she said, "no, you're here just fair consult. you have to understand people have cancer and he doesn't so...." >> reporter: and then you were escorted out the door pretty much. >> i think we were there 15 minutes. >> reporter: allen hoffman was diagnosed with stage four prostate cancer. 43% of the 225 patients who died between 2014 and august 2015 pe los angeles v.a. were waiting for appointments or needed tests they never got, ago the report does not conclude these patients died as a result of delayed consults. >> the number of patients waiting for care, the consults,

and the wait lists were much more significant here than at phoenix. >> reporter: dr dr. christian head is a surgeon at the l.a. v.a., he said 140 patient consults were deliberately deleted. >> i firstinoid an unusual number of patients presenting with delayed diagnosis, meaning that they presented to the system, they disappeared for a number of years, and then they present late with advanced cancers. those consults were being deleted, literally removed from the system. >> reporter: allen hoffman died a year and a half later. the v.a. has settled out of court with his widow. there was any doubt in your mind that they were responsible for your husband's death? >> definitely they were. >> reporter: the v.a. would not comment about hoffman's case or dr. head's allegations, but the l.a.'s hospital director admits these problems are serious. to fix them they've hired new leadership are, retraining employees and now posting wait

times online. anthony. >> mason: mireya, thanks. we have new details tonight on how the obama administration handled the russian hacking of the 2016 election. jeff pegues reports the exprt his staff agonized over how to punish russia and president putin in the middle of a volatile campaign. >> reporter: by early august, u.s. intelligence had evidence of vladimir putin had approved the operation. russian hackers had been carrying out cyber attacks and had orchestrated the disclosures of stolen democratic party emails to hurt hillary clinton and help then-candidate trump. >> wouldn't it be nice if we actually got along with russia? >> reporter: a former u.s. official tells cbs news there was a debate about, "how can we punish the russians and not have it appear like we're trying to help hillary." ultimately, the administration decided to focus on shoarg up state election systems against further attacks, rather than having the president publicly speak out. instead, the department of homeland security issued a

statement blaming russia. president obama did warn putin directly, something he only revealed months later. >> i felt that the most effective way to ensure that that didn't happen was to talk to him directly and tell him to cut it out. >> reporter: in december, the white house announced sanctions and that it had expelled 35 russian operatives from the u.s. and seized compounds in maryland and new york. cbs news' julianna goldman has been following this. >> reporter: when u.s. officials entered the compounds, they found a trove of missing and damaged material materials d have been useful in the ongoing investigation. also, some of the diplomats were kicked out because they were suspected of election interference operation. >> reporter: former deputy director of the c.i.a. michael morell says the punishment should have been worse. >> the three u.s. action, i think, were seen by vladimir putin as only a slap on the wrist. they didn't hurt him politically in any way.

>> reporter: the obama administration did consider a cyber attack in retaliation, but, anthony, multiple sources say there was no precedent for that, and it could have made the situation much worse. >> mason: jeff pegues, thanks, jeff. after the president fired james comey as f.b.i. director, as the bureau was investigating the russian elections meddling, and whether anyone in the trump campaign was involved, the justice department then appointed robert mueller as special counsel, it's no secret the president was not happy about that. he was asked about mueller in a fox interview. >> should he recuse himself? >> well, he's very, very good friends with comey, which is very bothersome, but he's also-- we're going to have to see. i mean, we're going to have to see in terms-- look, there has been no obstruction, there has been no collusion. there has been leaking by comey, but there's been no collusion, no obstruction, and virtually everybody agrees to that. so we'll have to see.

i can say that the people that have been hired are all hillary clinton supporters. >> mason: today, white house press secretary sean spicer said the president has no intention of firing mueller. the spicer briefing was closed to cameras-- thus the courtroom-style sketches. in cincinnati today, a judge declared a second mistrial in the case of a white police officer who fatally shot an unarmed black driver during a traffic stop. after five days of deliberations, the jury was deadlocked. michelle miller is at the white house. >> we are almost evenly split regarding our votes. >> reporter: after the judge's pronounce... >> declare a mistrial in this case. >> reporter: former university of cincinnati officer ray tensing showed a dlism of emotion. the fatal shooting of 43-year-old sam dubose in july of 2015 was captured on tensing's body camera. >> i didn't do nothing. >> stop! stop!

>> reporter: but after more than 30 hours, a jury of nine whites and three blarngz almost evenly split on whether it was murder. terina allen is dubose's sister. >> everything evidence shows he is a liar and a murderer. >> reporter: tensing took the stand and told the court he thought dubose was going to run him over as he was trying to remove the keys from the ignition. >> i could see his-- his head, and that's when i reached up with my right-hand and-- and-- fired a shot. >> reporter: this was the second time in seven months that a jury heard the case. the first ended in a mistrial after 24 hours of dplingz cincinnati mayor john cranley said he was disappointed with the decision and hope the city will stay calm. >> our police department will ensure that it's peaceful and safe, but also protect people's right to register their anger

and their upset if they want to do so. >> reporter: in a written statement, dubose's mother echoed that call for calm, but demanded a retrial. anthony, the prosecution says a decision on whether or not to retry this case a third time could come next week. >> mason: thanks, michele. michelle miller in cincinnati. in london, 800 apartments in five high-rises were evacuated today after it was learned their exterior siding contains material that can burn quickly. that same material is suspected of playing a role in the fast-spreading high-rise fire last week that killed 79 people. today, investigators said that fire started in a faulty refrigerator. in iraq, government forces backed by the u.s. are on the verge of retaking all of the city of mosul, but isis has mount aid bleed last stand in the few neighbors it still controls. today, a suicide bomber blew

himself up while blending in with civilians trying to escape. charlie d'agata is there. >> reporter: we swept into the old city with u.s.-backed iraqi special forces on a clowfd debris, through the twisted maze of streets, where die-hard isis fighters have dug in. when the roads narrowed too much, we had no choice but to continue on foot. this is just a hint of the destruction in the old city. the cameras really can't do it justice. it just goes on forever, for miles, just whole buildings, whole neighborhoods have been wiped out. this is what it cost to get rid of isis. and yet, the fighting continues with iraqi forces evacuating their wounded while leaving bodies of isis fighters to lie where they fell. there is still mortar and gunfire flying around in these neighborhoods as we try to pass

through. we just have to take cover as we heard one come in and exploded just a couple of buildings away. no one knows how many residents have weathered the eight months of fighting. earlier this week, isis militants bliewp the famous alnouri mosque rather than surrender it to iraqi forces. it's where the group's leader, abu bakr al baghdadi, first declared the creation of the so-called caliphate three years ago. the russians are now saying that abu bakr al baghdadi is dade dead. what do you think? "he's not important anymore," he said. "as far as we're concerned, he's just another isis fighter." for weary soldiers here, victory means making sure there's nothing left of isis. charlie d'agata, cbs news, western mosul, iraq. >> mason: still ahead on the cbs evening news, why small-town doctors are worried about the republican health care plan. and steve hartman with a son

helping his mom achieve her dreams.
