>> there's a tunnel of ice-coated strees in oklahoma. some branches crashed down. the ice storm is blamed for six deaths. it's creating havocs on roads and at airports. from new mexico up to iowa. it stretches all the way into parts of the northeast. omar villafranca is in oklahoma which is covered in ice. omar, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. that storm rolled across texas and into oklahoma and brought with it freezing rain that coated power lines and trees like this one behind me. it looks like it's a tree made of glass, but let me show you what we're dealing with. it's actually ice, about a half inch up to an inch thick. this storm basically crippled the area and left millions at a standstill. overnight storms pounded texas bringing heavy rains, flooding, and tornadoes. >> whoa. >> reporter: two touched down south of dallas. heavy winds near one

hangar at the grand prairie airport. further north, ice more than an inch thick in some places crippled parts of the great plains in the midwest, crushing trees, cracking power lines, and disabling cars. >> it covered up my pickup, come covered up our car, neighbor's van. been digging ever since. >> reporter: battered by freezing rain and snow, leaving thousands of people without power. on the roads crews worked overtime clearing ice and snow. >> oh, there goes another one right there. >> reporter: the ice storm devastated highways, leaving drivers spinning out of crow. a dash cam shows a kansas city trooper making a narrow mistake after a semitractor trailer loses control on a busy road. in

winter weather alerts including an ice storm warning across kansas, iowa, and nebraska. we could see a quarter to a half an inch on top of what we've already seen. of course, that's going to cause more slick roads, power out angs and many travel disruptions. many officials are telling folks to stay inside and stay put if you can. in addition to the ice, snow is going to be the big story especially over parts of colorado and western kansas where we expect some areas to pick up 3 to 6 inches of snow. charlie? >> jeff jamison, thank you. at least 37 people were killed. the turn eric cargo plane was flying from hong kong to istanbul. it was about to make a planned stop when it

outside ma is in airport. most of those kill wrd on the ground. the cause of the crash isn't known, but the jet was trying to land in heavy fog. president-elect trump is in an angry dispute with a legend in the civil rightsre aa on this martin luther king jr. day. lewis and other house democrats plan to skip friday's inauguration, and yesterday mr. trump hit back at cia director john brennan tweeting that the agency couldn't do much worse and asking was the leaker of fake news. major garrett is covering the trump transition with four days to go. good morning. >> good morning. mr. trump was responding. the head of the spy agency also refused to confirm or deny if the cia had any evidence about contacts between the president-elect's camp

the russians pointing instead to the fbi. >> i very much hope that our relationship with russia improves in the coming administration. >> reporter: on sunday john brennan warned the president-elect about temper and judgment. >> therefore, when he speaks or when he reacts, he has to make sure he understands the implications could be profound. >> mr. trump had for weeks doubted reports on russia tampering, cyber and otherwise, in the 2016 election. >> as far as hacking, i think it was russia. >> before reversing course during his news conference last week. >> i don't see the president-elect as a legitimate president. >> it's led people like john lewis to question his legitimacy. >> i think the russians participated in helping this man get elected, and t

destroy the candidacy of hillary clinton. >> lewis said he will boycott the inauguration. on saturday trump turned to twitter. john lewis should spend time helping his district which is in horrible shape and falling apart not to mention crime infested. all talk. talk, talk. no action or results. sad. lewis represents a district with wealth and prestige. it includes atlanta's hartsfield-jackson airport, the centers for disease control and prevention, and the georgia institute of technology. >> donald trump won this election fair and square. >> on "face the nation" mike pence tried to soften mr. trump's tone. >> it was deeply disappointing to me and also to hear h

inauguration this friday. i hope he reconsiders both statements. >> pence also said none of the conversations that michael flynn had with the ambassador to the u.s. were related to the sanctions tied to an election on hacking. gayle, it is unclear if mr. trump will maintain those sanctions. >> all right. thank you very much, major. in his final interview, president obama says he'll have to get the intelligence community to trust him. steve kroft asked the president about mr. trump's criticism. >> we're in this transition period and one of the first things that he has done in this transition period is to pick a fight with the intelligence agency. do you think that that's a smart move? >> you're not going to be able to make good decisions without building some relationship of trust between yourself and that community. >> do you see that happening? >> not yet, but,

again, he hasn't gotten sworn in office yet. >> president obama also said he believes the affordable care act will be one of his lasting legacies. president-elect trump says he plans to present a better alternative to obamacare soon. he didn't offer specifics to the "washington post." he said the republican plan was in the final strokes and said, quote, we're going to have insurance for everybody. mr. trump said the replacement plan, there was a philosophy in some circles if you can't pay for it, you don't get it. that's not going happen with us. he warned the pharmaceutical companies, they're politically protected but not anymore. senators bernie sanders and chuck schumer told a crowd in warren they would fight the repeal of the law that protects 20 million americans. john, good rn

thanks for having me. >> how do we define exactly what the president-elect wants to do. is it universal health care? here's what he told scott pelley. i'm going to take care of everybody. i don't care if it costs me votes or not. they'll be taken care of much better than they're taken care of now. >> i think his goal is to make sure everybody's got health care but one of the beauties of having a president like donald trump, he knows,000 create deals. >> more people are going to have access to health care under the obamacare plan? >> i think not only are they going have greater access but greater choice. they're going have more plans an more doctors available, something they're not having now. you see in market after market people who at one point had two, three plans to choose from are now being told the only plan

other competition is available. what he's going to do is reinstill a sense of competition and choice in the marketplace, allow greater competition to drive down costs, give consumers more options. >> why haven't we heard the details yet, sean? >> because he's not president yet. i get that you're excited about what he's going to do. but we've got four days to go. he's got plans on a lot of things that are going make this country move in the right direction, whether it's how we're going help our veterans and create better options. >> sean, that's a big promise, insurance for everybody. what does that look like? does that mean government pays for it or government mandates that businesses pay for it? >> well, again, norah, i think the goal as the president-elect stated in the "washington post" article, his goal is to make sure everyone's covered but he wants to do so in a way that brings all

table. so there's a pharmaceutical component to this, there's a competition and a marketplace access issue meaning right now the plans cannot compete across state lines which limits competition. so there are ways to deal with the price side that drive the price down and give consumers greater choice. >> let me ask you about john lewis and john brennan. was that necessary on behalf of the president notwithstanding what john lewis had said. >> look. i think john lewis is an icon on this martin luther king jr.'s anniversary. >> exactly. >> he's been a stalwart for that. that's why i think his comments were disappointing. john lewis more than anybody understands the need to enfranchise people, to get them out to vote, and when he makes a comment about the ill le legitimacy oan

think it ubds mines what he's done. he's been such a champion, working to get more people to vote and the legitimacy and apparatus of systems. to see him make a comment like that, i think, was disappointing. >> the president-elect doesn't have to respond to every criticism. >> i understand that. but when someone of john lewis's stature goes out and attacks the legitimacy of an election and his legitimacy as president, there is something when someone of that huge stature and iconic nature attacks him. the president-elect has a right as he's done over and over again of fighting back and making sure that hi shows he's not going to sit back and take attacks without responding. >> thank you so much for joining us. susan page is "usa today's" washington bureau chief. good morning. >> good morning. >> insurance for everybody. who pays for it. >> it sounds

people who have worked on health care for decades don't understand how that's going to work. it's what we've struggled with as a nation for a long time. now, i may be talking about universal access to insurance. that's something speaker paul ryan has talked about. that's something more different and limited than universal coverage. >> access is a big deal. >> it would be a big deal, protecting the people with pre-existing issues. that would be a big deal. >> and trump has said he's inclined to do that. >> that's right. but you do have to pay for it. a lot of russian news ore the weekend. we heard the cia director say donald trump does not have a full appreciation of russian capabilities and the president-elect saying he could do away with some of these russian sanctions. >> and he was a leaker. >> and we heard that nato is obsolete. so these are things that -- you know, trump has been a disrupter in many way

russia as well. the idea that he may actually move to lift the sanctions just imposed by president obama for meddling in our election, these are things that have gotten everybody's attention. this would be a fundamental shift in the approach that american presidents in general and particularly republican president-ele presidents have take en. >> what does vladimir putin have to do to get trump to lift the sanctions? >> maybe they'll have to invite them back to the talks. >> what do you make of his squabble now with john lewis? there are very strong feelings on both sides of this dice putte? >> there's nothing that seems to get the president-elect's attention more than questioning hiss legitimacy. that's when it comes to russia

lost the popular vote to hillary clinton. these are things that really get his attention. he's insensitive perhaps to some of the racial aspects including the offense that john lewis and othering took when he questioned the legitimacy of barack obama's presidency. >> four days to go. he says he's going to unite the country. >> leets hope that happens. >> yes. cbs news will have full coverage. it begin us with us on friday on cbs. protests of hundreds of thousands of people will likely compromise security on inauguration day. inside we'll go inside the command center to see how law enforcement arou

>> unbelievable. >> grout to be there in person. >> yeah. >> very cool. >> big match-ups ahead too. >> you had a good time. >> really good time. >> watching the patriots? >> really good time. >> is tom brady as good up close and personal -- >> i didn't get that close. but watching them all play. a shout-out, the houston texass had a great game too. but the patriots came out on top. >> did they ask you about us? >> i'm not the guest in the a block. >> you're smiling awfully hard. >> very giggly. >> very giggly today, miss o'donnell. >> maybe it's -- >> i'm just happy. >> what are we missing, charlie? >> it says charlie on the prompter now. >> okay. >> i'm charlie rose with gayle king and miss norah o'donnell. at least six people are dead after dangerous ice storm batteruced mh of the central united states. the system pounded parts of texas overnight with heavy rain,

flooding, and tornadoes. two touched down south of dallas. it damaged a hangar at the grand prairie municipal airports. >> an ice storm crushed trees, cracked power lines and sent cars out of control. ice and winter storm warnings are in place from new mexico up to iowa. winter weather advisories are in effect to the north and the east. donald trump will be sworn in as the 45th president in four days. he still has a strange relationship with the intelligence community. he blasted cia director john brennan last night on twitter writing, was this the leaker of fake news. mr. trump was reacted to brennan's response when he was asked if the president understands the threat from russia. >> i don't think he has a full appreciation of russian capabilities, russia's intentions and actions that they're undertaking in many parts of the d.

and sponlts of the intelligence community is. >> in two interviews the president-elect said he's open to taking another look at sanctions against russia if that country helped the u.s. he also attacked john lewis from making these comments on friday. >> i don't see the president-elect as a legitimate president. >> you dmot consider him a legitimate president. why is that? >> i think the russians participated in helping this man get elected, and they helped destroy the candidacy of hillary clinton. >> mr. trump tweeted, quote, congressman john lewis should spend more time fixing and helping his district which the in horrible shape and falling apart not to mention crime-infested instead of complaining about the election results. all talk, talk, talk. no action or results.

john lewis is a civil icon of the civil right air force rah. he was beaten in the march with dr. martin luther king jr. atlanta to trump, wrong. and on twitter, people posted pictures of that district with the #defendthe5th. this friday the inauguration begins with us on "cbs this morning." it will continue all day long on cbs. the president-elect says he is almost ready to unveil his proposal to replace obamacare. donald trump told the "washington post" the plan will provide insurance for everybody. he said it is very much formulated down to the final strokes. mr. trump said he would use executive power if necessary to replace the affordable care act. rallies took place across the country yesterday. thousands attended for a protest led by bernie sanders yesterd

>> what we're saying to the republicans is if you want to improve the affordable care act, let's work together. but if you think you're simply going to throw millions off of health insurance, you've got another guess coming. >> so what could plan to replace obamacare actually look like. shannon, good morning and congratulations on your new job and a promotion. >> thank you. >> so when sean spicer was here this last hour he said he couldn't really talk about the specifics because the president-elect is not the president yet. you've been working the story. so what does it look like? >> from republicans in congress i'm hearing a lot of the same republican ideas that they've been talking about for years now, health savings accounts, you know, getting rid of these essential core benefits that the obamacare plans have to include things like birth control, psychiatric care, well visits. they say

the costs of plans now and if we got writ of those, it would make it more affordable. they don't like panhandledates or the government telling people they have to buy insurance or employers. those are things we keep hearing. pre-existing conditions we keep hearing over and over again. we don't want people with pre-existing conditions not to get care. if people have no incentive or pressure to buy an insurance plan, then they're going to wait until they get sick. oh, i have a pre-existing condition, you still have to koer me and they'll buy it then and that's the worst-case scenario. >> does it affect trooper's values, the kinds of things he's talked about over the years? >> one thing he li'd like to se included is lowering drug prices. that's something, if we think we're going get a plan through easily and quickly, if he goes after drug prices which he is

essentially proposing, that's going to create a very big bat well congress because republicans in congress feel like this price negotiation, this letting the government set drug prices goes against their free market values. it might be trump's values of lowering drug prices but they think it's going hurt business and innovation. >> as a consumer, you think, yeah, great idea. >> right. and in a lot of countries they do is it the price of drugs. it's a very, very popular idea. >> he has really shown to use the white house, even though he's not there yet, as a bully pulpit against businesses. >> what we don't know is how much of the plan is going to be driven by congress and how much will be driven by the trump administration. is it going to be the trm p administration telling them what to do or congress saying here's plan, an idea we agree on, here's a bill, sign it. that determines a l

included and what ideas get left on the cutting room floor. >> lowering prices is something everyone agrees on. they're the most -- other than the nra, they're the most powerful people in terms of washington and the lobbying sector. that will be a thing worth watching. the second thing is the president-elect is promising insurance for everybody, and i think as reporters and others, the question has to be, who is going to pay for this. you can't have insurance. it doesn't come free. either the government is going to pay for it and taxpayers are going to pay for it or businesses pay for it, which is what congress was. which one is it? >> well, republicans are hoping they can do that by making health care affordable, by getting rid of some of these required benefits, improving malpractice reform, buy into free market. they believe if their principles are put in place, they'll be able to afford it or they'll be lowered for the

that's all theoretic cal and needs to be tested and played out. that's what they're hoping for sure. >> everybody has access to insurance. it's whether you can afford it or not or the type of insurance. >> or if you can pay for it. >> you can get casualty insurance. it's an extremely high deductible. this is a debate and a debate worth having. >> if the government pays for it it's medicare or a single payer system. >> right. we'll see when the plan comes out. we're waiting with bated breath. >> thank you so much. ahead,

likes to read a lot. >> i get to learn new words and stuff. >> so what's one of the words that you are learning now? >> i've already learned

punctilliuoness. >> i believe that means on time. that's ahead. you're watching "cbs this morning." bloomin' onion big! it's a bloomin' onion topped with our aussie cheese fries... but hurry in... just a few more days for this happy bloomin' new year... from outback. if you have moderate to severe plaque psoriasis isn't it time to let the real you shine through? introducing otezla, apremilast. otezla is not an injection, or a cream. it's a pill that treats plaque psoriasis differently. some people who took otezla saw 75% clearer skin after 4 months. and otezla's prescribing information has no requirement for routine lab monitoring. don't take otezla if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. otezla may increase the risk of depression. tell your doctor if you have a history of depression or suicidal thoughts, or if these feelings develop.

"buzzfee "buzzfeed." you're a failing pile of garbage. i'll tell you why. i took your quiz. i'm joey, array chel. >> he fired back on seasonal words. not funny. the cast is terrible. always a hit job. for years the presidents have had to get used to being the butt of comedians' jokes. jan crawford is in washington with some of the best political satire. good morning. >> they're always poking fun of the politicians in washington and some presidents have actually tried to laugh along. in 1975 chevy chase ushered in a new era of political humor. >> hello. hello. >> impersonating president gerald ford during the first season of "saturday night live." since then both democrats. >> there's going to be a whole bunch of thing

police clinton. >> reporter: and the clintons. >> one guy who scares me more than my dad. >> reporter: posing for truth behind political personas. >> and as i stand here in my borrowed work jacket in front of a sign that says the real deal. >> reporter: jon stewart honed his style of political humor over more than 15 years of comedy central's ""the daily show."" and explained it in a recent interview with charlie rose. >> i'm going with a scalpel at the crux of your identity as a politician to expose it for everybody to see and then i'm going have to make a joke about it and walk away and you're going to laugh and it's going to humanize you. >> reporter: many politicians have learned to laugh at themselves. >> the election is about who can take the

impersonation became almost as famous as the bushes themselves. >> the way is to start out with mister rogers. it's a beautiful day in the neighborhood. then you add a little john wayne. here we go. go over the rich. you put them together. you've got george herbert walker bush. >> first up, i want to say how sclieted aim to be in front of both the liberal media as well as the regular liberal media. >> reporter: in 2008 tina fey's impersonation of sarah palin may have been the first to go viral. >> hillary and i don't agree on everything. >> anything. >> i believe that diplomacy should be the cornerstone of any foreign policy. >> and i can see russia from my house. >> reporter: 2015 president obama embraced key & peele's

>> i received my fair share of criticism from the republican party. >> i can't even give malia an allowance. >> inviting him to deliver his white house correspondence speech. >> we need to stay focused on climate change? listen, y'all. in case you haven't noticed, california is bone dry. it looked like a trailer for the new mad max movie up in there. >> reporter: darrell hammond impersonated numerous politicians including vice president dick cheney. >> sorry i shot my friend in the face. >> reporter: perhaps most famously president bill clinton. >> saddam, are you still there? >> who is that? one of your jewish friends? >> no. well, yes, sort of. >> reporter: the times i have been around him, he's always been very gracious. cheney was very nice. i went to a couple of christmas parties at his house. >>'ve made a pretty good living on making fun of

>> reporter: christopher buckley who's been making fun of washington for decades argues the goal of satire is to show politicians how silly they really are. >> i also have an underlying respect for them. if you have no respect for them, you know, what's the point of making fun of them. >> now, after that highly contested election, i mean voters could probably use a laugh, and as the president-elect is set sboolg the white house, he's probably going have to get used to the jokes or he can turn off his tv. gayle? >> i guess it's funny if it's not you. but wouldn't it be funny if donald trump had alec baldwin at the white house press correspondents' dinner and was in on the joke? >> i don't think that's going to happen. a big scare for dozens of people in a newly opened sports hall. the video shows

for a long time, is how he can pass on the run. >> that's his game. this is one of those things. when you blitz aaron rodgers, he has the number one efficiency against the blitz. if you blitz him, he's going to rip you apart. and if you drop people back, he's going to rip you apart because he's a hall of fame slicer and dicer quarterback. he's been on fire the last eight games. to me, i don't know, they were 4-6. he came out and said we're going to run the table. >> run the table. >> run the table. to me, i don't think people understand how big that statement was. because he's doing it. it's like right up there with hue hand ali with the greatest people of all time saying -- calling his shot. >> did you think, yeah, sure, or did you think, he's going to do it. >> no. i got on board. if you look at our show, i got on part with it. i said, i'm not going against mr. discount double-check. if he says he's going to win the rest of the season, i'm going with him. >> the team that they'rela

list of things that it does to your self-esteem. and so it made it very easy to find an in to tituss's sort of struggle, trajectory, and plights. but in terms of his is senn tristys, i don't know that we share many. >> that's good to know. >> in between all of those rejections, i mean, do you keep the spirit up? how do you do that? >> how do you do that. well, i -- >> -- believe that the next one will be a winner? >> no. i don't so much look toward -- i don't look so much toward the future as the way to keep hope. i always have this ever-present you are enough, you are funny whether someone writes or you write it yourself, tituss. you are no less brilliant on screen than you are off, and so i just -- i've always had this sort of --

where i was in the world, who i was in the world, and what my lane was and i tried to stay in it. eventually, you know, someone's going to come and scoop me up. >> and they really did. you said being on the show is a political presence for you. what do you mean by that? >> well, tina and robert certainly don't shy away from all things political. whatever the social climate is, they seem to be actually ahead of it, and by the time it hits the air, whatever it is that they're talking about seems to be topical in the news or current at that moment. and i just feel like my presence is -- you know, i'm black, i'm gay, i'm christian, i'm all the things that get targeted. >> it's a great television show. >> you're
