what comes out of your mouth matters. >> sepp blatter forced to resign and with each saga, the beautiful game becomes uglier. >> everybody is trying to figure out how to tell the announced winner she is first runner-up. >> it was my mistake. a horrible mistake but the right thing. i can show it to you right here. >> in a fraction of a second, the cutting edge airbag technology kicked into gear when needed most. >> show up to work. you pull out your phone and press a button and go to work. you come out your tank is filled up and tires are aired up and windows are clean. >> they slammed hillary clinton for briefly appearing after a commercial break. >> sorry. >> i'm anthony mason with vinita nair and kristine johnson. investigators are trying to learn why a woman plowed through

police say it appeared to be intentional. one person was killed and nearly 40 were hurt. the driver is in her 20s and had a 3-year-old child in the car. neither of them was hurt. witnesses said victims flew through the air and were dragged down the street. >> the violent rampage started near the planet hollywood resort and reached the paris hotel and casino. the driver who is in custody drove off the street and onto the sidewalk several times. las vegas police ruled out terrorism. presidential candidate bernie sanders has suspended two campaign staffers this morning for the misuse of democratic party voter information. the campaign's data director was fired last week. a glitch in the party's voter database allowed them to read hillary clinton's private campaign data. sanders apologized to clinton at saturday's democratic debate, but the candidates did focus mainly on gun control, donald trump, and isis.

crush and destroy isis. crush and destroy isis. >> we heard from the senator just this week that we must put aside the issue of how quickly we get i said rid of assad and come together with countries including russia and arena to destroy isis first. is he wrong? >> i think he is missing the point here. we are doing both at the same time. >> we shouldn't be the ones declaring that assad must go. where did -- did it ever say in the constitution where is it written it is the job of the united states of america or its secretary of state to determine when dictators have to go? >> fountain united states does not lead, there is not another there is a vacuum. >> isil training videos are telling lone wolves the easiest way to buy a combat assault weapon is at a gun show and because of the flip-flopping political approach of washington that both of my two colleagues on this stage have represented there for the last 40 years. >> whoa. do not tell me that i have not shown courage in standing up to the gun people! trump comes along and says i know the answers.

mexicans, they are criminals and rapists? we ought to hate the mexicans, those are your enemies. we hate all of the muslims because the muslims are terrorists. we have to hate the muslims. i believe we stand together to address the real issues facing this country! not allow them to divide us by race or where we come from! >> donald trump is sending a message to muslims here in the united states and literally around the world that there is a clash of civilization. >> there was a breach because the dnc vendor screwed up. information came to our campaign. in this case, our staff did the wrong thing. >> does secretary clinton deserve an apology tonight? >> yes. i apologize. >> senator bernie sanders is with us from burlington, vermont. good morning, senator. >> good morning. >> your campaign fired your national data director and you've suspended two others. you're conducting an investigation. can you tell us the status of that now and are more

>> well, as you know, this is the second breach that the dnc vendors have allowed to happen. what we are asking for now is a thorough investigation with the dnc from day one of these campaigns to see what the implications of these breaches have been. or have information, in fact, go both ways. i don't know if that is the case but a possibility. the bottom line is the first time there was a breach when we had access to clinton's camp information, our people said, this is wrong, this is crazy. they went to the dnc. the second time, we had at least one staffer who did not do the right thing and that person is gone. we have suspended several others. but we certainly want to get to the bottom of this. we are working with the dnc to make sure that we have all of the information and we do not want these breaches from dnc vendors to take place again.

the dnc to basically shut us off from all of the information that we have put into that base, the life blood of our campaign, was totally inappropriate. that is an issue we continue to deal with them on. >> senator sanders, i want to ask you about donald trump asking for a new apology this morning. i'm sure you're well aware of what i'm speaking of. donald trump basically saying a reference him being a recruitment tool to isis should have never been a topic of this debate. >> let me say this about donald trump and what i said the other day. i fear that donald trump is doing a great disservice to our country internationally and united states all over the world and i have to say this. if you know me, you know, i am not the most partisan guy in the world and i don't like taking, you know, harsh attacks against my opponents but i think that liar. when he goes before the american people and says he saw on a

people in new jersey standing up and being so happy and celebrating 9/11 and the destruction of the twin towers, it never happened. it never happened. there is no -- >> what is your response to donald trump and hillary clinton should be apologizing? >> i think that donald trump, right now, i'll let hillary clinton deal with that. i think donald trump deserves to people. that is delusional. now either thousands of people and celebrating or they weren't. there is not any indication that that took place. any indication that he saw that on television and, yet, he goes around the country talking about it. that is doing a disservice to the muslim people of this country and our relationship with the muslim people all over the world. >> senator, the -- >> and he deserves -- >> senator the battleground tracker poll show you ahead in new hampshire. but trailing behind in some of the other states. we only have a few more weeks now until the iowa caucuses. what is your campaign going to

numbers? >> well, look. if you remember that when i started this campaign 7 1/2 months or so ago, we were considered a fringe campaign, fringe candidate. i was 3% or 4% in the polls. nobody knew bernie sanders and who i am or believed in. talking about why the middle class is disappearing and massive wealth and income and inequality in america and corrupt campaign finance system that buys billionaires to buy elections. our campaign caught on. i think the latest polls has us up in new hampshire and have us not so far behind in iowa. we have a very strong grassroots movement in iowa and new hampshire of volunteers and paid staff and we are knocking on a lot of doors and making a lot of telephone calls. i tell you, i think we have a shot to win in iowa. i'm leaving for iowa in a few hours and we are going to be spending a lot of time in iowa and new hampshire the next five or six weeks. we are speaking to many, many thousands of people.

if we can win in iowa, if we can win in new hampshire, i think we are on our way to a national victory and one of the great political upsets in the history of america. look. people want a political revolution. people are tired of the top 1% getting it all and everybody else is getting poorer. people want real change and i think our campaign is a vehicle for that change. >> senator sanders is joining us live this morning. thank you so much. governor chris christie's campaign depends on voters in one state. major garrett is riding with the candidate this morning. >> reporter: chris christie has spent a lot of time on the roads of new hampshire and now he says it's finally paying off. the governor talks to us about his recent rise in the polls and what he has learned about

in a statement, quote. we asked if any of orbit's own testing found trist or other concerning chemicals and orbit had no comment. but orbit is not alone. the ecology center found 75% of car seats tested contained potentially harmful retardants but orbit claims otherwise. along with the international association of firefighters and academy of pediatrics, they are trying to ban fire retardant chemicals from children's products and many want them out of car seats as well. >> they protect only against small flames. >> car seats save lives but bloom stresses the time your kids spend in one and never let your baby in the car seat

country or guide a country when it's most anxious? >> through honesty and strength. first is honesty. you have to tell the people what the real nature of the threat is and it's going to mean there are times you are fearful. you better not offer blanket assurances because you can't give it so you say to people i under the constitution to be able to keep you safe. >> reporter: we also asked what christie has learned from the resurrection of his campaign. >> i think the biggest challenge to a presidential campaign is patience. nobody wants to have it but you have to have it. >> reporter: christie says his personality legendarily combative demands action. >> you want it to happen like this. it doesn't happen that way in a presidential campaign. >> reporter: christie has four paid staffers here in new hampshire and the same number in iowa. but he is trailing badly in iowa and has only one staffer in south carolina. christie knows this isn't nearly enough but says he'll be able to raise all of the money he needs

wins new hampshire. >> thank you, major. about his personality because that so often is brought up in all of this. >> oh, yeah. times. >> everything on the line now for new hampshire. nearly a third of americans do not spend time with their neighbors. according to a report out this year. the number of interactions has declined since the 1970s partly due to lower levels of trust. next door is a new private social network to revive neighborhoods to connect people on safety and find a babysitter and more than 85,000 neighbors across the country uses the networking site and the cofounder is here with us. how does it work? >> next door is free and easy. it's a private social network and makes it easy for you to and communicate about the things that matter. >> is it an app our phone? >> it is an app as well as a website. you can go to nextdoor.com and

part of the conversations your neighbors are having to create a stronger and safer community for >> you're not talking about setting up a network people can post more selfies. you're looking if you need to get rid of a couch, there are safety concerns in the things? >> we are a social network but a social network about solving problems problems. it's about coming together with your neighbors to solve problems like finding a babysitter maybe more personal things like finding a lost dog or critical things like coming together in times of crime or natural disaster. >> how do you make sure the people using this are legitimate? >> well, nextdoor is a private social network and privacy to us means two things. the first thing you have to verify your address to join the service. so that when you go and talk with your neighbors you know they are your actual neighbors. the second thing about nextdoor is all of the conversations are private. you won't find them with a google search or shared on other social networks. we try to make it safe to share

would feel safe sharing i don't have line. >> i think something interesting in this app you suggest go next door and borrow a cup of sugar or something. what do you say to people this will allow people to isolate themselves even more? >> when we started the company, almost 30% of americans didn't know a single neighbor by name. part of the culprit was technology. technology in our busy lives. now technology can play a role in bringing back that sense of community and next door is an ice-breaker. not a replacement for the conversations that you have with your neighbors. to happen. >> you actually are having partnerships with police departments in some communities. how does that work? >> one of the key cases for nextdoor is for neighbors to get together and create a virtual neighborhood watch to keep the neighborhood safer. one participate in those discussions needs to be the local police department. we have partnered with almost 1500 police departments across the country to create a great dialogue between neighbors and police to keep communities safer. >> how about neighborhoods

can you potentially get banned from the site and do you watch out for that kind of stuff? >> on nextdoor you have to use your real name and verify your behaving badly is very, very low. at the same time, nextdoor is about solving problems so not about social things like gossip or getting to know your neighbors. it's about tapping into the power of the neighborhood. >> as with so many of these start-ups there is often criticism and one of the biggest criticisms for you guys there could be some component of racial profiling. you've been very avenctive. u.s. we consider profiling to be unacceptable. how do you police that behavior? >> it's not up to us to police it but up to the neighbors. we made it clear that racial profiling is completely unacceptable on nextdoor. it hardly even happens but one occurrence is too many. we will do everything we can to remind our members that the constructive dialogue on nextdoor should stay civil and neighborly. >> how do you make money? >> we don't. we have been focused on creating

we move forward to creating a business model we i think a tremendous opportunity to connect neighbors and local businesses. >> you talk about you don't want these gossip sites. how do you prevent that? you're relying essentially on the community to police this system themselves. >> yeah. they don't really have to police the system. because the whole system is built to solve problems. it's about finding a babysitter, about getting rid of a used couch. it's about coming together if there are floods or fires. so the content itself doesn't really lend itself to gossip or people being nasty. the content lends itself to people coming together and helping each other to creating stronger and more tight-knit communities. >> we have heard a lot of about packages being stolen from porches around this time of the season especially. how does nextdoor help that? >> if your package has been stolen you can ask your neighbors if they have seen anything. if you know you're not going to be home when the package is being delivered you can ask a trusty neighbor to take possession of that package instead of you. >> it's a smart idea. it's nice.

>> i think it would be very useful. >> thank you so much for your time. >> thanks for having me. homeland veteran damian lewis brings a different voice to drama but not this one. >> whoa! >> slamming me. lead you down to the rubber dub

>> up next, lewis and i'm coming app an ambitious u.s. attorney taking on a brash hedge fund billionaire is not the latest headline on wall street but the plot of a new showtime drama called "billions" debuting in january and stars paul giamatti and damien lewis as combatants in the high stakes finance. >> reporter: damian allow buse yanian lewis is a family face to "homeland." he is back and playing another convicted villain. at least you might believe until you meet the guy played by paul giamatti. >> the good man didn't try to kill a fresh bull. you wait until he has been stuck

>> reporter: it's not really easy to say where the good guy and bad guy is in the whole breakdown of this. is that something that attracted you to this? >> oh, i'm the good guy. >> reporter: with financial market wounds, still fresh for those who endured the wall street crisis nearly a decade ago, billions will touch a nerve. >> a question on the business. like highlander. there could be only one. >> co-stars damien lewis and paul giamatti relied on insiders and federal prosecutors to develop their job. anything unusual you found out about the job? >> i learned it's an arduous job with very little roux mun radiation. they don't get paid much and work in not very pleasant conditions and not an ounce of glamour to it.

fund guys are dr of themselves? >> only if they break the law. in drama, i think my character does, do you know what i mean? >> reporter: what real-life figures did you look at? >> i met a cross-section of these hedge fund billionaires and there wasn't really a discernible type. i think they all want to win. they all talk about the game. i think there is a point at which they have enough money obviously to live. but just making more money as part of the games like being at the casino. you want to beat the house. >> when was it a crime to succeed in this country? >> reporter: the role of conflicted american is one of the british-born actor has played before. damian lewis won a gold globe on "homeland." >> i'm a lucky man. >> reporter: are you finding there is as much internal and external conflict in the world of american finance as you found in the world of american terrorism? >> yes, i am. and i think one, at the moment,

history, one is pretty supposed to not like a hedge fund billionaire given the crash of '07-'08 and the way in which some people got very rich and benefited from it. >> reporter: since we mentioned damian lewis is british you probably wonder what happened to his accent? well, so did we. is it difficult for you to slide back into your original english accent at all or have you lost it? >> core, governor! lead you down the rubber dub and bring the ball and chain. >> no. no. problem at all. i'm stuck here in american accent today because i'm just filming all day and i've heard -- >> how consciously do you do that? i'll notice observe times i'm forgetting you and hear you american all the time. are you conscious about it?

pretty much when you jump in the van in the morning and talk to my first american of the day and flips me over and it's easy. >> reporter: aside from playing another american on what he hopes will be another television hit, damian lewis may soon be on the big screen in a role that is actually british. online oddsmakers currently have him as the favorite to be the next james bond. with all of the attention to the character of james bond is getting right now, your name keeps getting bandied are. >> are you going to do? >> are you going to be the next james bond? we have a scoop right here. that. >> reporter: have you really? >> but i've restrained myself. >> reporter: paul and i are asking you, damian. >> nobody has called me, put it that way. nobody has called me. >> reporter: should they call you? >> you shouldn't believe it because it's on the internet. >> we will have to wait to see who gets to play bond, but

>> i was so distracted by him speaking american! you're british! >> he really finds if he stays in that place on a day to be shooting, which we were on the set, that it helps him stay in character. >> i get it. >> we all do it, anthony. ugly holiday sweaters find a beautiful place in history in kansas! that is next on "cbs this
