7:03 am
welcome to "cbs this morning." every public school in the country is being drawn into the controversy over transgender rights. the obama administration is telling all schools to allow students to use the bathroom consistent with their gender identity. otherwise, they could face a possible loss of federal funds. >> the sweeping director comes amid protests over north carolina's new bathroom law and the administration's legal battle with the state. the north carolina measure requires people to use the restroom corresponding with the sex on their birth certificate. margaret brennan is at the white house with what the new guidance means for schools. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. in is the letter that's going to all public school districts in the country today. it puts them on notice. if you do not comply with the obama administration's interpretation of the law, you could lose federal funds under title 9.
7:04 am
that's the law that prohibits discrimination based on sex for all educational programs that receive federal funding. the letter from the departments of justice and education tells teachers they must make sure their transgender students are not discriminated against. students must be treated consistent with the gender they identify with even if records indicate a different sex. schools must give access to bathrooms, housing, sports facilities, and even refer to students by whatever the preferred pronoun the students ask to be called by. these rules apply even in the case where students, parents, or community members raise objections or concerns. [ cheers ] >> reporter: the new directive comes amidst the administration's legal fight with north carolina over its new law requiring people to use the bathroom corresponding with the sex on their birth certificate. >> this action is about a great deal more than bathrooms. >> reporter: president obama also voiced
7:05 am
transgender rights last month. >> i think it's very important for us not to send signals that anybody is treated differently. >> reporter: and the issue has hit the campaign trail. hillary clinton and bernie sanders have thrown their support behind transgender rights. and while former republican candidate ted cruz supported north carolina's law -- >> donald trump argued that grown men should be allowed to go into girls' restrooms. >> reporter: front-runner donald trump showed his indifference. >> people go, they use the bathroom that they feel is appropriate. there has been so little trouble. >> i am going to take a pee in the ladies room. >> reporter: transgender celebrity caitlyn jenner took him up on the offer. >> thank you, donald. i appreciate it. and by the way -- >> reporter: we've reached out to hillary clinton and donald trump's campaigns but haven't heard where they stand on this new directive. i have to say that this challenge is going to be a big one for the white house because the argument rests on some shaky legal
7:06 am
the court still have not ruled on whether federal laws prohibiting sex discrimination also apply to gender identity. so right now, president obama has spoken out saying, though, he believes that public opinion is changing faster on this social issue than any other. >> all right. it's sending quite a message today. thank you very much. house speaker paul ryan says his meeting with donald trump was encouraging. the highest ranking republican elected official is still not ready to endorse donald trump for president. ryan gave him credit for bringing in new voter but said the two still need to find more common ground. chip reid has more on trump's trip to washington. good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning. donald trump met with republican leaders from both the house and the senate. before the meetings, there was a lot of worrying about significant policy differences between trump and conservative leaders here on the hill. after the meeting, for the most part, they were all singing a happier tune. >> we discussed a lot of things, impot
7:07 am
very good meeting. >> reporter: donald trump sounded vague but hopeful thursday night after meeting with republican leaders. >> i think for the most part we agree on a lot of different items, and we're getting there. >> reporter: the trump show charge interested washington early thursday, dashing around town, creating a circus-like atmosphere with protesters at every turn. the most closely watched meeting on trump's schedule -- >> mr. ryan will meet with me today, and he will do what i say! >> reporter: a face to face with house speaker ryan and reince priebus. >> there's no secret that we've had our differences. we talked about those differences today. >> reporter: worried about the party's conservative agenda, ryan is still unwilling to endorse trump, hoping to keep some leverage over his policies. >> i want to make sure that we truly understand each other and that we are committed to the conservative principles that make the republican party, that built this country. >> reporter: and the division exists among ryan's
7:08 am
own man. i think he's going to come together with a policy to put forward. we're going to get behind it. >> i'm not with him on trade. i don't think he's right on immigration. i have no idea where he's at on the minimum wage. >> reporter: despite the differences, there is one thing republicans can agree on now -- >> a hillary clinton presidency would be a disaster for this country. >> people understand that hillary clinton would be a disaster. >> this is not a woman that should be president. >> reporter: in another possible sign of republican unity, senator lindsey graham who once called trump a jack ass had a phone call with trump yesterday in which he said trump was very cordial. >> thank you. our senior adviser to mitt romney and paul ryan during the 2012 campaign joins us. welcome. >> good to be with you guys. >> you know them both. no one has been more out front than mitt romney it donald trump. the speech and comments that have been searing. >> yes. >> does
7:09 am
opinion of trump for running mate? >> i think paul has rervez reservations. first of all, if you look at how paul rose in politics, he basically had been engaged in the war of ideas. he's wanted to develop an ideas-based conservative governing agenda. he's a conviction politician. for cynics, this is hard to understand. he's a conviction, principle-based politician. he got into it for the ideas debate. donald trump is many things. one thing he's not committed to is ideas and policy debates, there doesn't seem to be conviction and principle. paul's style of pliex -- paul is very much about getting along with people he disagrees with. fighting respectfully. having vigorous debates. and donald trump's style of politics is to ostracize, be provocative, bombastic. that's not who paul ryan is. >> one followup. is paul ryan's sense of donald trump that he's a heretic to
7:10 am
conservativism? >> yes. i mean, that is basically how he's fell for some time. paul has two primary concerns, which is why he's been reticent to endorse. he wants an open channel with trump, see if he can work with him. he has two concerns. one, he's the speaker of the house. he's got to protect the house majority. he's very concerned that donald trump could undermine the policy agenda of house republicans and make it harder for house republicans to run for re-election, a. b, he's also concerned that donald trump's schoolyard antics, his style of dealing with people, whether it's the bullying, when it's the dabbling
7:11 am
they differ on trade. they differ on the minimum wage. they differ on the muslim ban. entitlements, taxes, every issue. how can paul ryan ever endorse donald trump or chair the convention? >> i think he's going through a difficult process. he believes, to give him his due, he believes -- he's a persuasive guy. when he starts to push medicare reform among house republicans, 2009/2010, most were against it. he worked one after the other to persuade the conference to take there difficult position. he believes, give me time with donald trump, i'm going to educate him, i'm going work with him, i think i can modulate his policy commitments and his behavior. i'm skeptical that it will work. but i think that's partly why he's withholding on the endorsement. he wants there to be a trial period to see if they can possibly work. if it doesn't, he has space. >> dan senor, thank you very much. facebook ceo mark zuckerberg is
7:12 am
accusations of political bias. he invited conservative leaders to meet about a report that it cites liberal views in trending topics. zuckerberg writes, "we have rigorous guidelines that do not permit the prioritization of one topic over another." >> reporter: in the post, zuckerberg said that facebook does not sensor conservative topics. his decision to personally address the controversy comes after facebook announced it was investigating claims that workers put a liberal spin on social media content. >> the internet has enabled all of us to access and share more ideas and information than ever before. >> reporter: with more than 1.6 billion users, facebook has become a key player in the distribution of news. ceo mark zuckerberg is battling claims the site doesn't play fair. >> i know what everyone's saying and sharing and likind
7:13 am
liking. >> reporter: at issue is a process facebook uses to decide what's trending after a report that facebook manipulates user data to weed out politically conservative news stories. "the guardian" newspaper got a copy of facebook's internal guidelines. reporters sam fieldman. >> they can go in and inject new topics. they can delete topics that are duplicate or inappropriate. they can plaque -- can blackliss things. i think the guidelines are straightforward, and i think they try hard to maintain objectivity. >> reporter: republican senator john thune called for a congressional inquiry. >> consumers have rights, and we want to make sure that we're protecting consumers' rights and that businesses aren't, in fact, engaging in any deceptive practice. >> reporter: zuckerberg says he wants to meet with leading conservatives and people from across the political spectrum to discuss how facebook can remain "as open as possible." >> they have a history
7:14 am
to maintain good public relations, and they're going to do it. my question would be whether or not that will affect their internal operations. i suspect it won't. >> reporter: after those internal documents were leaked, facebook then made the internal guidelines public. the company is really trying to emphasize in its words that while a team of editors vets the content, that what's trending is primarily generated by those computer algorithms. >> thank you very much. a new blackeye for the tsa after a huge baggage mixup. thousands of bags could not be screen ted phoenix airport pause of a computer glitch, so the luggage piled up high outside the terminal as passengers had to leave without them. we have more from reagan national airport outside washington where the tsa will face reporters later today. chris, they cannot be looking ford that meeting. -- looking forward to that meeting. >> reporter: no. there are tough questions. airlines are saying wait times are up
7:15 am
airports. tens of thousands missing flights. at the 10th largest airport yesterday, it was the line for luggage. checked bags were everywhere but where they were supposed to be. even filling what's normally the cell phone waiting area. more than 3,000 missed their flights out of phoenix sky harbor airport thursday due to an unprecedented server failure that crippled the tsa, preventing officers from using machines to screen the luggage. >> very stressful because i hope that everything that i packed is in there after people have hand-checked it. >> reporter: thousands of bags are being sent to surrounding airports to be screened. it could take days to get to destinations. across the country, it's growing long, slow lines at checkpoints that are frustrating flyers. at chicago's midway airport, video and pictures posted on line showed seemingly endless security lines stretching through the terminal. flyers are using the hash tag
7:16 am
are coming from congress, too. >> it's a huge failing government program. >> reporter: at a hearing yesterday, house lawmakers blasted the tsa. agency administrator peter neffenger. >> we cannot address the system to the peak volume period. >> reporter: he took over the tsa last july, weeks after an internal investigation revealed airport screeners failed 95% of tests to detect fake explosives and weapons. the tsa has refocused on screening and opened a new centralized training academy in georgia. >> when we criticize you today about having long lines and taking too long to screen people, next week if there's a breach, we will haul you up here and lambast you for not being more thorough. >> reporter: the tsa says it is back up and running in phoenix this morning. and they do have a contingency plan in place just in case. norah? >> that's good to know. thank you very much. the 2016

7:19 am
>> i met prince. i was swimming, and he was on his phone ready to do medal stuff. i said, "hey, boss?" >> reporter: that's how we talk. >> he looks, and i said, "how did you like the sitting volleyball game?" he was like, "man, it was brilliant." yeah, it was. >> reporter: it was. brett is training for the paralympics in 2020 for sitting volleyball, the sport that he and his team took home gold. gayle? >> thank you very much. i love that. hey, boss? i like those games. >> cleeongratulations to seam u. dramatic rescue brings a kidnapped 9-year-old back to her family. how two volunteers found the missing girl in remote terrain

8:03 am
among many to trumpism, ryan trying to preserve it as a move dedicated to economic growth and political reform." ryan made the point after speaking with donald trump. >> i am interested in going forward and seeing where that common ground exists to make sure that we can have a unified republican party that, yes, there will be different republicans that have different views on various policy ideas. the question is, can we unify on common core principles that make our party. i'm encouraged that the answer to that is yes. >> others say that donald trump came out on top. a column in the "washington post" says this, "trump has stolen his party, and there's nothing ryan can do in the short term to get it back." donald trump credit sized the paper and its owner last night. >> we're getting calls from reporters from the "washington post" asking ridiculous questions. i will tell you, this is owned as a toy by jeff bezos who controls amazon.

8:05 am
>> exactly. >> reporter: in 2012, what did the doctors tell you? >> your cancer is back. >> reporter: with recurrent glioblast oma, there were no options other than the one that was tried. stephanie became the first to experiment with the polio virus. the virus is a creation of molecular biologist mathia mathias bromeyer. he reengineered the virus removing a key genetic sequence. he replaced it with a harmless bit of cold virus. the modified virus can't cause paralysis or death because it can't reproduce in normal cells. in cancer cells, it does. in the process of replicating, it releases toxins that poison the cell. this process also awakens the immune system to the cancer that it had never noticed before. why di
8:06 am
react to the cancer to begin with? >> so cancers, all human cancers, they develop a shield, a shroud of protective measures that make them invisible to the immune system. this is precisely what we try to reverse with our virus. so by infecting the tumor, we are actually removing this protective shield and telling -- enabling the immune system to come in and attack. >> reporter: it appears the polio starts the killing, but the immune system does most of the damage. stephanie lipscomb's tumor shrank for 21 months until it was gone. three years after the infusion, something unimaginable had happened. this is from an mri in august, 2014. and there's no cancer in this picture at all? >> we don't see any cancer, active cancer cells.
