norah o'donnell is in moore, oklahoma. norah, good morning. the man said it all. we're oakies and we'll rebuild. >> reporter: that's right. good morning to you, charlie. it is a tough morning here but we've seen people from the beginning trying to pick up from this tornado. >> here at the newest information on the tornado. officials say they're confident no one is missing or trapped in the rubble. the death toll is still 24 including nine children. more than 320 people were treated for injuries at local hospitals. >> reporter: the national weather service now says the tornado had winds above 200 miles an hour. and take a look around me. you can see some of the damage that those winds did. we're in a different position than we were actually. on the other side of the hospital where we were standing yesterday. right behind me is actually what's left of what was a community bank. i actually talked with the manager of the bank. one of his trucks is here.

he came back yesterday to see if there was anything still vallageable from his truck. we'll talk more about that and show you some of the pictures. we should note that thousands of tornado survivors are now facing the very huge task of trying to rebuild. jeff glor has been talking to some of them. jeff, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning to you. what the national weather service confirms is this was a top-scale tornado. the tornado that killed dozens and destroyed thousands of homes on monday has been officially classified as an ef-5 the highest most violent rating. >> this is horrible horrible. >> reporter: oklahoma city mayor rick cornett can't believe anybody's around. >> no one could have survived this, and yet they did. it's the storm of storms. >> reporter: in the city of moore, they're crawling back in.

what are you finding here? anything? >> some of the stuff i can't find. i had a couple of motorcycles in the shed. nowhere to be found. >> reporter: this is where they lived. >> we always rode it out in our master bedroom closet. >> reporter: this is the closet where he and ann were planning to hide. at the last minute they decided to leave. have you thought about how fortunate that decision was to leave? >> yeah. as soon as he pulled up it was just found dachlgts everything was gone. >> reporter: state officials now say 24 people were killed. among them 9 children from two local schools. >> the tornado went in. >> reporter: isabella row ha survived. she is 7 years old and filled

with gratitude. >> i was so scared i was crying. and whenever the police came out, it was like oh, thank you, thank you for saving me. >> reporter: one quarter of the homes in moore were damaged or destroyed. more than 5,000 in all. the city does not believe there are other survivors or bodies to recover. by this morning their goal was to have searched every damaged piece of property at least three times. then the giant process of rebuilding will begin, one small step at a time. and moore's mayor says it starts with something very simple norah, and that is putting up street signs. even for long-time residents here, it's very difficult to get their bearings given this damage. >> reporter: thank you for that. mark strassmann is also on the ground here in moore. he's covering the devastation in the area. mark, tell us what you're seeing this morning. >> reporter: good morning,

norah. jeff was talking about the 5,000 homes damage order destroyed. this is one of them. i'm standing in a home that's a couple of blocks from plaza elementary. look at what's happening. the entire roof is gone. the front window is gone. the side wall is completely gone. these folks in many instances only had 15 minutes if they were home to try to get out of here and get away from winds that were as high as 200 miles an hour. where do you start? where do you start in a house like this? where do you start to rebuild your life? >> most folks are going to look for important papers photos insurance obviously, but when you have a situation like this i mean where do you start? norah? >> reporter: mark strassmann thank you. moore is also the hometown of oklahoma congressman tom cole. good morning. >> good morning.

>> you lived here for 15 years. you came back from washington. describe what you saw? it's defer stating. literally we visited on tour with the congressional delegation, governor fallen. the first stop was the plaza schools. i've been there a million times. i used to keep the grounds there when i was in college. it's a polling place. you literally couldn't recognize it. you couldn't tell it was a school building. you lose your bearings. the houses were every bit destroyed. it's pretty devastating to look at and sadly it's a sad thing to look at. it's not our first tornado. >> you describe the school as ground zero that school just demolished. how is it that the school didn't have safe rooms? >> it's an older school. it's still the strongest building in the area. it's the place to go honestly. everybody made the right

decisions. but i think it's something the legislature will look at and local people. normally again it would have been a fairly secure location but when you've got an ef-5 above ground there is no good location. >> should there be shelters at public schools? >> i think that's something to look at. building underground is tough. >> reporter: what about disaster relief aid? what do the people here need? >> you know first of all, let me be the first to tell you this. they need your prayers. second, help the reputable salvation army local red cross. those kinds of things will be helpful. third, the state and local

legislation. they're drafting up -- >> do you agree with senator tom cole that any state -- >> you mean tom coburn. i'm tom cole. >> two toms. i know you well. yes, do you agree with him? >> let's wait and see the extoechblt the damage. i don't want to spend time funding fights. there's always better ways to do thing, but once the disaster happens, the people on the ground need to know they're getting help. if we can do that in a prudent way, i want do that. but at the end of the day, my objective is to get it here. >> reporter: congressman tom cole, thank you. good to see you again. >> good to see you. >> reporter: coming up we'll talk with an 8-year-old gill who was injured at plaza school. her mother talks about her frantic search to find her daughter. she like so many other parents once they found out the school was hit were racing to see if their kids were already.

this morning we're learning about a shooting in orlando, florida. it involves the fbi and a suspect who may have been involved in the boston marathon bombing. our cbs correspondent john miller joins us on the phone. tell us what you know happened? >> sometime after mind last night, fbi agents who had been at the windover complex in yoernld, florida, had returned to question an individual they had been looking at for some time actually just after identifying the bombing suspects in boston. he was a friend of the older brother in that case tamerlan tsarnaev. he had been interviewed along with a number of other people in the apartment complex, but the interest in him was higher because of a number of factors. he was in contact with tamer

lynntamerlan tsarnaev. the fbi was back to question him again. there was some indication he canceled that trip, but in the encounter in the apartment, something went wrong. those are the details we don't have charlie, which is did he come out with a weapon, was there a fight, but there were shots fired by the fbi agents. he is deceased and a fairly significant fbi shooting investigation is going on around that. >> john, thank you. we'll continue to follow this story. it's been 12 days since the internal revenue service has admitted to targeting committees. tl witness is going to invoke her fifth amendment. nancy cordes is on capitol hill.

good morning. >> reporter: good morning, charlie. lois lerner was going to speak. she also apparently didn't inform her superiors or lawmakers and now that a criminal investigation is under way, her lawyers advised her to plead the fifth. lois lerner headed the division at the heart of the irs controversy. according to a treasury didn't report, lerner was advised in 2011 that some irs agentles had been signaling some tea parties for 18 months. some of it continued. and her superiors testified tuesday they were not informed. the attorney general began investigating a year later. house oversight chairman darrell issa wrote it appears you provided false or misleading information on four separate

occasions last year. her lawyer wrote back she has not committed any crime or made any misrepresentation. under the circumstances she has no choice but to plead the fifth. >> i had partial facts. douglas schulman who was appointed by president bush in 2008 expressed regret but he frustrated those looking for an explanation. >> how did this happen? >> mr. chairman, i can't say that i know that answer. >> what we need to do is to bring before this committee some people who might actually know the answers. it's frustrating to have no answers for a hearing like this. >> the white house explanation of what it knew when has shifted over the past few days. initially a white house spokesperson said they were informed a few weeks ago that this investigation was wrapping up but they now say a few white

house officials may have spoken to irs officials about how to make all of this public. >> nancy, turning from that to immigration, the senate judiciary committee passed an immigration bill on yez. so what does that say about the process of getting immigration reform? >> well, that was a big milestone that passed out of the committee after a debate of over 300 amendments. it had all of them supporting it and three republicans. it now goes to the senate floor for what will probably be three weeks of debate. and it's not clear whether. >> thank you. the fbi men who knew about the attack on benghazi. all of men are under surveillance in libya. they hope to eventually try them in a united states court. meanwhile david petraeus fought to keep specific details to

talking points. they were favorable to his image and that of the agency. that led to bureaucratic in-fighting. critics say it's evidence of a white house coverup. after months of rumors anthony weiner says he's going to run for mayor of new york city. jim axelrod with a look at his bid. >> the last time it was for a mistakenly sent tweet. this morning he's out with a highly graphic video saying he will be out for the mayor's race here in new york. >> you work hard make your way into the middle class, maybe make life easier for your kids. >> reporter: he's on a video this morning on youtube. he's making a pitch for mayor of new york despite hissing ates in

congress. >> i've also learned a lesson. i hope i get a second chance to work for you. >> it was just two weeks that weiner resigned from cob after admitting he sent lewd pictures of himself to several women. >> this was a personal failing and i hope they don't see it that way. if they do that's their decision. i'm going to have work very hard. >> reporter: since then he's become a father and he's touted it in his video. perhaps one key of overcoming his edge is his wife houma. >> we love this city. and no one will work harder than anthony. >> her weight will carry more than most political spouses. >> i think she's got to be there to support him and say, look it if i can forgive him, so can

you. >> he's got the name recognition. by all accounts he's got more than $4 million which makes him not only second in polls but second in war chest. >> there's still plenty of ground for weiner to make up. christine quinn is also running for the nomination and has a double digit lead. she would be the first female and first openly gay mayor. >> it's a crime that has no shortage of precedence. look at governor mark sanford selected four year after his political career fell apart after having an affair with a woman in south america. the question is, charlie, while anthony weern has certainly made the race more interesting, has he made it any closer. >> we'll take a look. time to show you some of

this morning's headlines from around the globe. "the new york times" saysing the number of contentious debate over their legality. the prot expected to speech tomorrow. that follows allegations of adultery and assault. it's the latest in the string of scandals to rock the military. "the wall street journal" says the ceoo jpmorgan has let go of his hand. last year a multi-build bill on-dollar trading fiasco tainted dimon's image and an evacuation has been ordered for an area in north dakota. heavy rains are blamed. it is now

welcome back to "cbs this morning." norah is in moore, oklahoma. norah, good morning again. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you charlie. coming up in this half hour a teacher who threw herself on top of students to save them. at least one child is alive because of her quick thinking. she tells us what she said to the kids while they were all trapped in the rubble. and when the tornado hit two elementary schools here in moore, the children had no place to hide. we'll look at what stopped the school from having safe rooms. that is ahead. and the tornado killed seven

children inside plaza towers elementary school but miraculously several students were pulled out alive, and we talked to one survivor and her mother. where did the teacher tell you to take shelter? >> hallway. >> reporter: were you kneeling down? >> yeah. i was on my knees like that. >> reporter: from her hospital bed 8-year-old courtney brown recalled the moment the warnings sirens first sounded. >> the doors kept opening and shutting opening and shutting by themselves. >> reporter: because of the wind? >> yeah. and there was like this thing that looked like a twister, and it was tearing the ceiling up. >> reporter: you saw that. >> yeah. it was like that. >> reporter: the tornado took direct aim at plaza towers elementary as courtney and her second grade class huddled in the hallway. >> reporter: you think something may have hit you in the back of

the head. >> i don't know what it was. i didn't know i was hurt but everybody else told me i went into an ambulance, and here i am. >> reporter: were you scared? >> mm-hmm. >> reporter: what were you thinking? >> about my mom. >> reporter: what were you thinking about your mom? >> that i missed her and hoped that she was okay. >> reporter: courtney's mom raquel was at work at the time. did you think she was dead? >> i did. the first i heard about the school, my mom called and said the school was demolished. there's nothing left. she said i don't know how anyone survived. so the whole time i'm trying to get to the school it's hysterically crying. >> reporter: when she arrived she quickly reunited with her 11-year-old boys. she couldn't find her daughter. >> reporter: luckily her teacher

was there. she came to me and said courtney went to the hospital. she was bleeding but she's okay. >> reporter: it was just this year that courtney and the boys posed for this photo on the first day of school. now all that's left of the school is a pile of mangled debris. >> reporter: you know what happened to your school. >> it turned into crumbles. >> reporter: yeah, it did turn into crumbles. how do you feel about that? >> sad. >> reporter: the family's home was also destroyed. still, courtney's mom considers herself lucky. >> reporter: you lost your house too? >> yeah. but i wasn't worried about my house. my biggest worry -- and i'm still not worried about my house. my biggest worry is my children. as long as they're okay i'm good. i can replace everything else. >> reporter: you can hear raquel say the most important thing is her children are alive and her family is safe. and, in fact courtney could be

released from the hospital today. with were talking about plaza towers elementary school and some of the teacherers there. of course, incredible teachers at that school. one of those teachers did so much to save her students and keep them safe. she was a third grade teacher who was pregnant and she used her own body as a shield. in part because of her braveryiesybravery, at least one little boy survived. vinita nair hasta story. >> reporter: jennifer doan still struggles to speak, but the love she has for her students extends beyond words. seven of them were killed when the tornado ripped through moore. seven in a class of 20. >> we were trying so hard to keep them all calm. >> reporter: do you remember what you were saying to them. >> that everything was going to be okay. >> reporter: within minutes the tornado tore the school apart.

do you remember using your body to cover some of the kids? >> i used my arms to wrap around two of them. i said someone will come for us. >> reporter: how did you get out of there? >> we were stuck and somebody suddenly came. they knew that we were there. they knew we were there. so we kept thinking -- we kept thinking for us. >> reporter: once rescuers pulled her from the rubble she said all she could do is think of her students. she doesn't consider herself a hero but she may have to get used to the title. for "cbs this morning," vinita nair moore, oklahoma. >> what an incredible story. and jennifer is doing well this morning as well as her child. you know the elementary school destroyed here in moore had no safe rooms, did not have an

underground shelter either as a place where the kids could have taken shelter during the tornado. we asked elaine quijano why they didn't have those safety things in place. good morning, elaine. >> reporter: good morning to you, norah. well, it turns out here in the heart of toerntdrnado alley, there are no requirements for schools or any other structures for that matter to be built to guard against tornado force winds or to have shelters for students. many new school buildings in oklahoma have included safe rooms, reinforced steel and concrete bunkers but it's strictly voluntary and it often comes down to money. >> you have a limited amount of funds that are used for litigation members and when you have a limited number of funds, you set priorities on which schools you do want to ask for. >> reporter: more than 100 safe rooms have been built in

oklahoma schools. it was before they knew how to fortify buildings against tornadoes. structural engineer john joyce says older schools only get attention when they're erecting new buildings. >> to try to converts a building, i think it would probably be as cost effective to go ahead and, you know build a whole new edition. >> the schools also lacked underground spaces that could act as shelters. >> you have bedrocks. it makes cellars exactly difficult. you have to blast or dynamite that out and that's not something that a lot of people can afford. >> reporter: in 2000 an oklahoma climb a toe logical survey said many places inside schools where they would seek slel ter were not sufficient reinforced. monday's twister had winds up to 210 miles per hour but buildings in oklahoma are only required to

withstand 90-mile-per-hour winds. now, there are many that hope this tragedy will spark a discussion how to construct safe rooms. it's going to require time and money, about $1.4 million per school. norah? >> elaine quijano. thank you. this town's going to clean up first. they're going to take care of everybody, but as congress mentioned it's something the legislature will look at. >> thank you, norah. angelina jolie stunned everyone with her own test. and tomorrow morning regis philbin returns to television. he joins us here in studio 56. that's tomorrow on "cbs this morning."

angelina jolie's high risk for breast cancer was revealed by a genetic test but "the new york times" reveals how much that test and other tests costs. >> good morning. >> good morning, gayle and charlie. >> why is this test so expensive? >> in the '90s the government's research team identified a gene that says you might get breast cancer. the company charged $4,000 to do the test. well you can see your entire genome for $1,000 why are we charge 4g$,000 for an entire test. >> why? because they have moonopoly. they can charge whatever they

want. >> how much do you think they should charge? >> there are many out there that do genetic tests for $100 and $200. >> are you saying you get the same result with not that test but other tests that could cost that little? >> yes. it cost $1/00 to $200 to sequence the genes to given you the data and they charge thousands. the company's answer is hey, well, insurance companies pays for high-risk people, but it ooh tess wrong'. who pays the premium? it's us as the individual if it's a private insurance or tax. >> dock, to let me interrupt you for a second because we have a statement from the company. as you point out in your company, right now they are the only ones that issue this particular test, but myriad the company that offers the block of tests says it is covered by nearly all private and public health inshoers medicare and

70% of the individuals on medicaid. so the test is widely acceptn't. they have a paetschtient assistant problem to cut costs or pay for free. what's your response to that? >> when you say it's accessible and paid for, again, we're paying the premium. that $4,000 cost is paid by insurance. that's why our premiums are so high. is that's why health care coughs in our country are out of control. when you give somebody a monopoly, they should not be allowed to do predator practice. we have to make it available so not only high high risk people can get it everybody can get it

side. we're not going to come close it to. we'll take the help that's appropriate but most of -- the loss of life is the biggest concern for us on the morning that will happen. oklahomans are so hardy. we'll build and come back from this and we'll do this in a way that makes us stronger and better. >> there's the point you raised about disaster relief in the past and now affects your home state. you continue to assist even though it's okay that there should be an offset in the federal budget correct? >> well i think any time we do an emergency supplyingmental bill, i believe we ought to pay for it. you know it's hard to equate when you're wasting at least $200 billion a year on fraud duplication and waste in the federal government that we would go and borrow more money.

i've always had that position and it doesn't matter where it is. and oklahomans basically have that position. if we need help -- by the way, the private industry has come in. yesterday about $20 million was raised in private money and red cross and the salvation army are doing a lot. we'll take the help as taxpayers and the government but we want it done wisely. >> it sounds like you would do the same if it was raised in oklahoma. do you worry about alienating your constituents? >> no. look, my constituents doan want us to charge our everyday living expenses to their kids the very kids that were rescued from the school, the very kids that we're interested in. why should we saddle them when we're wasting money. the hurricane sandy bill -- look, i voted for the first

section of that when it came through the first time and then we added another $60 billion of which $40 billion won't be spent for the next five years. it became a christmas tree. if you actually look at the bill, the $20 billion that's actually necessary for the sandy expenses and rebuilding sandy was there. we added $40 billion on top of it and then charged it to our kids. >> all right. senator, thank you. >> it's just not an appropriate way to run the future for our children. >> some say they need to come up with another bill that's not tied to budget cuts but i know that that's another topic. thank you for joining us. we appreciate it. the oklahoma city thunder's kevin durant is stepping up. the nba foundation is offer 1g million to match the pledge to red cross. this jersey was found in the wreck alk. he says he hopes to return today

>> definitely not and you no longer need a title or palace form to be a woman in power. also melinda gates. she deserves it because she's been the draving force behind the largest foundation. >> yes. a foundation over $30 million is the fact that she's disrupting how traditional fillphilanthropy is being done and she like much of the other women are negotiating with the states. she's one of the most influential change makers not just for today but to come. >> how do you look at them? >> it's a much more expabsive look on what power means today. . we rank them on three categories. money, how much influence they make or control and we look at media momentum. how often are they not just making new bus driving news. that includes social media.

else. >> does that mean you can't have customer service -- >> obviously not in terms of what they say in the survey. >> again if you're measuring the physical distance between you and the seat in front of you, our seats are tighter but we allow them to travel -- >> could charlie fit in one of those seats? >> he could absolutely fit in a front seat for $20 or $40 more. >> i've got to hand it to you for being here because most ceos in your position if they were rated at the bottom, they wouldn't say let's go on "cbs this morning." they'd say i have a ped cue. >> most would come and say we're full. >> let's talk about the lit. you're saying bottom of the list but we're income ber one for margin performance for investors, we're growing faster than any otherarily. we're employed more people. we're the lowest fare in the industry. so we're in um beer one in the

you lost the crewcut. go ahead. >> my original theory is if you see a man with a mullet or a woman with an old hairstyle, my first theory is that people wear their hair the same way they wore it the last time they got laid on a regular basis. >> i'll take that. >> i since refined it to people ware their hair the same way they wore it since the last time there was a major change in their life. so for women especially -- not for menace much but for women, if you have girlfriend sthas have a breakup, divorce, new career, they graduate, something like that from college, they always get a new hairstyle to announce to the world that i'm a new person. >> why were you interested in doing this job in the first place? >> i wasn't. i turned them down the first time. i thought, that old man show blah, blah blah. when i first got the call i was on a show called the power of ten. wit as a game show that was on

for a while on prime time on cbs. i'd done the pilot and i had been off for a while and was off everybody's radar, but i was taking acting lessons and after i was doing the pilot i was driving down the post and i got a call from my agent. he said i got the most interesting call from cbs casting. he said, how would you like to take over for bob barker for "the price is right?" i'm like what? i had a whole different idea in my head, like drama. >> how did they convince you? >> then they picked up "the power of ten." and then they came at us again and i said well how much does it pay. my agent goes i don't know. what's the hours. he goes, i don't know. some agent. >> the hours are good. >> yeah the hours are great. i thought, i should take a

meeting with cbs since i picked up "the power of ten." i picked up a daytime meeting and one of the producers with "the price is right." here we're all drinking sodas or whatever and the one producer goes what's your favorite thing to do? i said i like to leave tips that makes me happiest. put a smile on someone's face. he said, you know on "the price is right," you get to do thaefr day. that's when it clicked in my head. could do that every day, give away prizes. >> clearly you like it. i hear you're on vacation but you mention work. >> i was thinking about work and how fun it was and i wish i was going to work today. isn't that weird? it's the greatest thing where you have a job and think, oh i miss work. i have so much fun. i can't wait to get back. >> did you leave standup behind?
