"wall street journal" reports his son-in-law jared kushner is being considered for a top level white house role and sources tell cbs news mr. trump is offering key administration positions to some candidates. chip reid is watching the transition for us. chip, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. president-elect trump's transition team is on a full-court press to show they

conference call with reporters announcing their plan to institute a lobbying ban on any person who is part of the transition or the new administration which could pose a problem for some of the people going in and out of trump tower. the evidentors at trump tower were kept busy as a stream of transition members, possible administration picks, and well-wishers went up and down greeting president-elect donald trump. today, he plans to meet with a group that includes former secretary of state henry haley and the current director of the nsa. cbs news has also learned that trump has five front-runners for key positions in the trump white house. former director of the defense intelligence agency, mike flynn is the favorite for national security adviser. flynn was loyal to trump throughout the campaign and claims that he was fired from his former post at the dia for strong views against radical islam. senator jeff sessions of baum

loyal trump supporter is believed to be a favorite for attorney attorney general. sessions was the only nonfamily noncampaign member in hour-long meeting yesterday on supreme court nominees. >> you don't form a federal government overnight. >> reporter: the transition team continues to push back on stories of inner turmoil. >> president obama didn't have his entire cabinet formed within the first week. we make sure we get it right. >> reporter: in fact, president obama waited 20 days making his first announcement on november bill clinton waited until december. trump is only on day eight of the transition. >> went very well. >> reporter: vice president bider defended the incoming administration while welcoming mike pence to his future home. >> no administration is ready on day one. we weren't ready on day one. i've never met one that is ready on day one but i'm confident on day one everything will be in good hands. >> in response to reports that world leaders were scrambling how to figure out how to contact

list of 29 world leaders that trump and pence have spoken to over the last week. charlie? >> chip, thanks. kellyanne conway is a senior adviser to the trump transition team and she was campaign manager for the president-elect and we are pleased to have you here. welcome. >> thank you, charlie. >> i'm reading the papers this morning. a personal question. i see the name of kushner and bannon and sessions and priebus and ryan and mcconnell and pence and the family. what is it that you might be doing in this new >> i appreciate you asking me. i just want to go for my highest and best use to serve president-elect trump and vice president-elect pence. >> have you a special relationship. you came in at an important moment in the campaign. >> i have a special relationship with both of them and i'm thrilled they will be leading this country. charlie, i am still sorting that out. i have four small children and i'm sure many of your viewers can relate to that and i need to balance the personal considerations for the professional ones. i've been with president-elect

activity that is trump terry and transition down in washington where i was also this week. >> have you been asked to serve a role? >> i have. i was asked immediately what i would like to do. >> you were? >> yes. >> turn to the people who will be coming including heads of state. the japanese prime minister. as you well know, the candidate said, during the campaign, that he might want to reconsider and have japan consider how many he is willing to prepare and pay >> maybe they will discuss that today. i think it's a much more informal meeting than all of that since we have a current president and commander in chief and president obama is still the president. we are sensitive to the fact that these early meetings with heads of state occur within that construct, that fact, charlie. but, at the same time, i'm very happy the prime minister is there to meet with president-elect trump and vice president-elect pence today. but president obama is on his last foreign trip in that capacity, so i think any deeper

the united states will have to wait until after the inauguration. >> the front page of "wall street journal" is reporting that jared kushner will probably get a top post in the administration. >> i spoke to him last night. he has not applied to any job and has no security clearance but he is incredibly important to his father-in-law president-elect trump and was a big, big part of our election victory, franklin. jared has been intimately involved in the campaign strategy from day one and i'm her brothers will continue to be very supportive, but time will tell in terms of the positions that different people -- >> traditionally, the president announces his national security staff first. south carolina governor nikki haley is heading to trump tower today. her lieutenant governor told local reporters she is under consideration to be secretary of state. is she on the short list? >> well, we have long short

transition. i think some people are expected on this list and some people would surprise you to be unexpected. this is what president-elect trump is doing every day. meeting with advisers, having interviews with potential candidates for each of these positions. its serious business. i took a look yesterday at the time lines from past administrations and we are basically right on target with respect to where other presidential administrations in formation have been including president obama. i very much appreciated what vice president biden said vice president-elect pence. we in our world did not have our administration formed in week one and they don't either. it would probably be irresponsible to go ahead and name all of the people right at once, but we are very happy that governor haley is coming to meet with president-elect trump. i'm sure they will have a wide ranging conversation and i think everybody should be very not surprised the number of people have come forward expressing interest in high level positions. >> does it mean the president-elect is seeking out

because of some of the questions raised during the campaign? he wants to make sure women are in his administration? >> the major qualification is can you do the job? that is a major criterion. are you qualified to do this job? and then i think, secondly, charlie, it's do you support what president-elect trump has put forward as his first 100-day plan. it's specific and out there for all to see. and any of these individuals who would serve in his cabinet on a senior staff should be well aware this is a man who intends to get things done quickly. he is a he accountable for results and he delivers and he produces. the excuses of divided government that has existed for probably six years having two parties in power in washington, d.c. is gone now. you have one party in power. i think it's luplifted you can execute and deliver and produce and takes away the excuse i think many have been using in washington, d.c. to not get things done. >> is rudy giuliani, he has been very vocal about his desire to be secretary of state.

>> he's a leading contender for any number of positions. he is incredibly loyal to donald trump. he was very important during the campaign. >> are you concerned about his business connections that have been raised? >> no. no, i'm not. and i understand that people want to vet things publicly but, again, we have a process that should be respected and gayle, i just can't help but feel whether it's the protesters or whether it's some of the unfortunate and frankly inaccurate headlines about the would-be team and cabinet members floating through steve bannon headline? i assume you're referring to that. >> pretty much everything. the man is brilliant and he treats everyone kindly and the same. i think people are cherry-picking some headlines and maybe even some projects that he was not -- he was not involved with. he has the ear and the trust of the president-elect and rudy giuliani would be -- if he was our secretary of state, he would command a certain presence worldwide but i think he is qualified for many different positions. >> great to have you here.

washington last night one week after conceding the presidential election. she received a very warm reception from supporters of the children's defense fund. it's a nonprofit advocacy group she worked as a young lawyer. she asked the country to believe in its heart and look forward. nancy cordes, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. clinton made a commitment before the election to deliver this speech and so she kept her promise. these remarks, at times, were pretty personal after her former boss called her the people's president. clinton shed some light on what the last week has been like for her. chont w clinton was greeted with a standing ovation and kiss on the cheek from the woman who hired clinton out of yale law school in the 1970s. >> i will admit, coming here tonight wasn't the easy thing for me.

past week when all i wanted to do is just to curl up with a good book or our dogs and never leave the house again. i know many of you are deeply disappointed about the results of the election. i am, too. more than i can ever express. >> reporter: she has been largely out of sight since her return to private life, except for this photo captured during a hike in the wood near her chappaqua new york home last week. >> i urge you, please, don't lo share. >> reporter: dckeemocrats are trying to figure out how to promote those values now that republicans will control both the white house and congress. the new senate minority leader new york's chuck schumer created new leadership roles for vermont's bernie sanders and wisconsin's tammy baldwin, as the party tries to reach out to both progressives and midwesterners. clinton acknowledged that the base is still reeling. >> i know that over the past

themselves whether america is the country we thought it was. the divisions laid bare by this election run deep. but please, listen to me, when i say this. america is worth it. >> reporter: the former secretary of state spoke for about 20 minutes and she didn't give any hints about what might come next for her. she did say that she wishes she could go back in time and tell her mother that her daughter would go on to win the majority of votes, abo charlie? >> nancy, thanks are. an investigation this morning is trying to determine the cause of a deadly gas explosion in central illinois. the massive blast rocked downtown canton and heavily damaged several buildings. one person was killed and 11 others were hurt. don dahler is in canton where the explosion was felt across a wide area. don, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. there used to be a building

there is debris and broken glass that is scattered around the streets in all directions. a total of 17 local agencies took part in the rescue efforts. and residents here say it could have been far worse. >> there used to be a building right there, guys. >> reporter: video captured shortly after the blast shows how powerful the explosion really was. >> i'd say this was pretty damn serious. there is where the building used to be. >> reporter: officials say it was around 6:00 p.m. when a natural gas explosion ripped apart this building, killing one man. reports say he was a utility worker investigating a leak. 11 others were injured. >> there was just glass and stuff blown everywhere. it scared the living jesus out of me. >> reporter: debris from damaged buildings littered the streets, while emergency workers scrambled to help any of the injured. this surveillance video taken from inside a nearby local business displayed the strength of the explosion. >> just a massive rumble and a

crashing down at one time. >> reporter: overnight, community members wasted no time picking up the pieces, boarding up broken windows and cleaning up affected businesses. >> i might loss the building. >> reporter: jeff hawk owns a building in downtown canton that was also devastated by the blast:there are reports people felt it all the way on the other side of the lake which is five miles from the downtown. away. >> reporter: city officials moved quickly to shut down gas lines throughout the area. they have now brought in a team of structural engineers to check all of the nearby buildings to make sure that they haven't been compromised by the explosion. norah? >> don, thank you so much. a minnesota police officer set to appear in court tomorrow for the deadly shooting of a black man during a traffic stop. st. anthony, minnesota, police

i don't believe we are a fundamentally different country today than we were two weeks ago. the same country with all its grace and flaws and volatility and strength and resilience exists today as existed two weeks ago. the same country that elected donald trump, elected barack obama. i feel whom this election will mean more uncertainty and insecurity. but i also feel like this fight has never been easy. the ultimate irony of this election is the cynical strategy of the republicans which is our position is government doesn't work. we are going to make sure that it doesn't but they are not

are the swamp and what they decided to do was i'm going to make sure government doesn't work and then i'm going to use its lack of working as evidence of it. donald trump is a reaction not just to democrats, but to republicans. he's not a republican. he's a repudiation of republicans but they will reap the benefit of his victory in all of their sinnicynicism. i guarantee you people are coming t of government. one of the things that struck me odd about this election and maybe i missed it, but nobody asked donald trump what makes america great. and that was the part that i -- >> reporter: he wants to make america great again but nobody said to him what is it that makes america great? >> correct. >> reporter: what is it you want to do that we are not doing now? >> what are the metrics? because it seems like, from listening to him, the metrics

what makes us great is america is a homily in the world. there are a lot of people, and i think his candidacy has animated that thought that a multiethnic democracy, a multicultural democracy is impossible. and that is what america, by its founding and constitutionally is. >> reporter: and become more and more, year by year. >> correct, correct. >> reporter: but do you think it's healthy thatha now, that, in fact, this real sense of finding out who we are and whether we have gone off track in some way? >> absolute. you know, i think you -- i would rather have this conversation openly and honestly than in dog years. somebody say there might be an anti-semite working in the white house and have you listened to the nixon tapes? forgot about advising the president. the president.

do you know our history? you know? this is -- and we also have to caution ourselves to the complexity of that history. i thought donald trump disqualified himself at numerous points, but there is now this idea that anyone who voted for him is -- has to be defined by the worst of his rhetoric. like there are guys in my neighborhood that i love, that i respect, that i think have incredible qualities who are not afraid of mexicans and not afraid of muslims and not afraid they are afraid of their insurance premiums. in the liberal community you hate this idea of creating people as a mondomonolith. they are individuals and it would be ignorance. but everybody who voted for trump is a monolith, is a racist. that hypocrisy is real in our country. this is the fight we wage against ourselves and each other. america is not natural.

thousands of years of human behavior and history to create something that no one has ever -- that is what is exceptional about america and that is what is -- like, this ain't easy. it's an incredible thing. >> incredible thing. it's so nice to hear from him, charlie, about this. >> he is very reflective about the country and the election. he does not miss being at comedy central but has a lot to say and you know how much his voice was missed when you heard him. >> yes. >> i like it. >> very interesting points. >> i like how he, r dismissing trump or those who voted for him, tried to explain and understand why they voted for him and not -- don't paint them as a monolith. >> about all of the things the people are talking about in terms of muslims and that, they are worried about insurance premiums. >> shows you how people jump to conclusions and jon stewart is basically saying, calm down. everybody think. america is going to be okay. >> he is fatiscinating but he ao talks about "the daily show" and

>> did you say he doesn't miss it? >> i believe he has moved to another state. >> i do too. >> we will bring you more of our conversation with jon stewart and author chris smith next week. their new become reveals the behind the scenes history of "the daily show" with jon stewart at the helm. some of the popular news on facebook never really happened. ahead the numbers that show millions of americans were fooled by fake stories in the last weeks of the campaign! subscribe to our "cbs this morning" podcast and get extended interviews and news of the day and podcast originals and find them all on itunes and apples podcast app. we will be right back. ?

thank you for being here. >> my pleasure. >> i know you have called this epidemic unprecedented and horrific. why is this problem still growing? >> it's a great question. it's growing and it's growing fast. you're right. more people die from drug overdose than from car accidents or firearm violence. in fact, the numbers aren't even that close. 30,000 people who die each year here is 47,000. 50% higher. it's awful. >> the question is why? >> the question is why. there are a lot of prescription pills out there. and here is the problem. we know that 4 out of 5 new heroin i don'ters started on prescription pills. and most of the people who start on prescription pills get them out of someone's medicine cabinet. get it, quote/unquote, legitimately. and so there is a pill problem

education. we have created a stem-base curriculum we can drop into any middle school or high school in america and tell people what the science of opioid addiction is and we can help parents and kid and teachers have conversations about it. another example to your question, gayle. >> the national takeback. >> critical stuff. we did twice the past year. here's a big number. we took in 1.6 million pounds of unwanted and >> no questions? >> no questions asked. now by some estimates, only about 10% of what we get on take-back are opioids. that is still 160,000 pounds of opioids out of medicine cabinets and off the streets so this is a good thing. >> a lot of work to be done but you're saying we are doing it? >> look. the men and women of dea are amazing. they have a hard and dangerous job but we need help. we need it from doctors and

popular product and more train sets. >> they will be faster? >> as we upgrade the infrastructure, they will be faster and faster and faster, although there are limitations because of the way the route is designed on how fast we can go. >> i know that acello can reach 150 miles per hour. the actual speed is so much slower. why is that? why can't we have fast trains or even faster trains? >> right. it's a really good question. the limitations is the fact that the railroad was built -- basically in the 19th sent relationsh century. the curvature it doesn't allow for high speed. curvature is what limits speed so you would have to build a whole new route. >> how much would that cost between d.c. and new york? >> you know, i haven't seen the latest estimates, but it's tens and tens of billions of dollars. >> you have to go buy the land. >> you have to go buy the land and engineer it and you have to
