morning." senator, good morning. >> thank you very much, norah. >> let's start with the breaking news this morning. it appears that paul manafort, tru trump's campaign manager is turning himself in to the special counsel. what do you think this means for the russia investigation? >> first of all we'll wait until the charges are filed. but we know manafort had the top position in the campaign. he was the chairman. we also know he left that position in part because of his dealings with foreign government. we know he failed to register under the foreign agent act. he did not register when he was supposed to for representing the former government in ukraine, the russian-related government. and we also know he may have had some shady business dealings, money laundering, wire transfers in the past in 2012 and 2013. so there's a lot to go on there. the issue is even if he is charged with something unrelated to
8:05 am
beginning. >> you know how grand juries operate. tell us what they are? >> you know, i don't think people know exactly where they are, which is appropriate, because bob mueller has been conducting this investigation professionally. he hasn't been politicizing it or working with members of congress. we know this is the beginning and it is a broad investigation and that i'd like to remind people this this starting under a republican run justice department who knew that there were facts out there. and rod rosenstein, the dep tut attorney general put him in charge of the investigation so he could do this work based on reports with american intelligence agencies that had gathered ample information. they may have been working with the trump campaign. >> the president calls this the whole which hunt. any questions or timing? does it bother you as they're getting ready
8:06 am
>> i consider it a true hunt, not a witch hunt. we owe it to our democracy. senator portman was just saying in that clip, this is about the integrity of our own democracy, this idea we're self-governing, that we don't have them influencing the outcome of our elections. >> the question has always been about collusion and the trump campaign which remains the open question, right? >> right. but we know all of these things now that we didn't know back in november, the fact there there was this meeting that paul manafort was present at, that we're a lawer who has relations with the government, have had talking points that she gave them to the kremlin. with know the attorney general spoke to the russian ambassador right after discussion of president on the sanctions. we know that the national security adviser resigned because of his dealings with russiaing the phone calls he made. it's just one thing after another. people being fired, dealings
8:07 am
so i don't know what mueller's going to find, which is good. this is a criminal investigation. >> as a prosecutor, what's your big question? there are many, i get that. what's your big question? >> what i want to know is how far it wept, wo was involved, and who gave the orders. >> turning to the honest legislation that you're co-sponsoring. on capitol hill this week are some of the ceo gs of these big companies. are they cooperating? welcoming? >> i think that would be a far cry. they're not welcoming. i cannot tell you how important this is. >> we know the ads were purchased in rubles, but it's about americans having the right to influence them. when people buy ads, you have to have i'm amy klobuchar, i approve this message, but you also have to keep those ads and register them online so campaigns can see them, journalists can see them. not true i
8:08 am
internet. we love the internet. it's brilliant. but we know we have to keep up with the times. $1.4 billion was spent in online ads and there's no tracking of it. >> are they opposing this legislation? >> they have started to take -- they've started to take some responsibility. they are doing some things to change their practices. >> they didn't take it seriously at first. >> they did not. many of them have admitted it. but now is the time to support our bill. we can't have enforcement if they're just doing it on their own, and we also -- they're still not dealing with issue ads which dominates the internet and were dominating tv. that e're still not agreeing to do so. >> this appears to be a giant loophole in campaign laws. >> it's humongous. they were set up when they didn't have any of these kinds of ats. now our laws have to be as sophisticated as those. we're no
8:09 am
a cat video, gayle, not that you would. >> dog. >> dog ads. these are paid political ads. >> how much of a difference would it make? >> it would make a big difference in terms o being able to track them. if we would have seen the russian ads, we could have seen what was going on. >> it's the beginning of monitoring the five big internet companies. >> it is. they're brilliant companies. they've done great things in america but they're victims of their own success. they have to take responsibility. i'm glad they're doing some things, but they have to understand we need to have laws so laws can be en
8:14 am
there has been dealing with his business partner and connections to businesses in eastern europe. can you detail some of those? >> exactly. one of the subjects is perhaps mr. manafort did not disclose the extent of his lobbying efforts on behalf of the government of ukraine. of course, the government he was lobbying for has close ties to russia, so there are concerns why he did not disclose this more fully to the trump campaign, but also you have the requirement to disclose it to the federal government. in an investigation like this, you start with the sort of low-hanging fruit, if you will. you start with the targets. maybe you did something that would be easier for prosecutors to charge. and if you can charge someone on a low
8:15 am
failure to kiss dysclose your lobbying offense, perhaps you can get them to be more cooperative as you go after more high-profile charges on more significant charges. >> just one question. do you expect there to be other charges against anyone else today? >> i do not. so far based on what my sources have told me over this weekend, it was expected it would probably be only one person. we're hearing it could be two. both are connected to manafort. repeatedly sources tell me, look, if you want to know who's going be charged, what they're going to be charged with, look who's gone with it so far. it's been paul man foort's business associates and the documents have all been tied to him. at this point i have no expectation of anyone else being charged beyond pl manafort and his associates. >> all right. paula, thank you. our chief legal correspondent jan crawford is in washington. jan, going further, "the new york times" reported in july
8:16 am
pro-russian interests by as much as $17 million. we see paul manafort with his attorney walking into fbi headquarters, surrendering himself, if you will, to the fbi. what do you know about the heart of some of the allegations against him? >> well, i mean that is a hugely important point and following up on paula's excellent reporting where she kind of outlined some of the things they've been looking at with manafort, the wing one thing that jumps out, you didn't hear about collusion. this could be something tip of the iceberg, something unrelated to collusion or russia or the campaign at this point. the question is though now obviously manafort hasn't been cooperating up to this point. prosecutors typically don't in diet people who are cooperating. what if he changes his mind, pro e provides more information that could put pressure on other
8:17 am
open this investigation into other areas. >> jan, we saw him just arri arriving. what happens now? >> you see him turning himself in. this is a significant day for paul manafort and certainly not something he saw coming when he agreed to take on the high position in the trump campaign. what we're going to see later in the day on this indictment, with a going to see some of the charges and that will also be very important. that will show us as paula had suggested what they're looking for with mr. manafort and some of the charges the special counsel has pursued and the crimes they say paul manafort has committed that can be proved beyond a reasonable doubt in court. when we see those charges, that will give us more information on where this investigation may be going or what the special counsel is looking at with regard to him. >> thanks a lot, jan. let's go b
8:18 am
jeff? >> yeah, charlie. so we're hearing there could be someone else surrendering today. we're looking into that. we're trying to confirm that. what i can tell you about paul manafort is, you know, again, we don't know what these charges are going to be. we should find out if the next couple of hours. what we should know is he is key to this russia investigation. i say that because when he joined the trump campaign, he joined as a volunteer in march of 2016 and then in april and maehl of 2016 he started rising to the top of the trump campaign and eventually became the campaign chairman until august. now, that's important because not only have investigators really been scrutinizing his contacts with russian billionaires, these ol' go
8:19 am
they've been looking into the liabilities of the russian billionaires, and part of that involves some of the activity taking place over the summer while he was campaign chairman. there have been reports and we have reported that he agreed to brief a well known russian oligarch while he was campaign chairman. we don't know if deripaska ever took him up on that offer, but there is an e-mail chain that shows that there were -- there was this desire to brief and to keep deripaska informed. and then there was this activity around the convention in cleveland and the changes to the platform on ukraine, the gop platform. paul manafort was at the heart of that. so was one of his associates rick gates. and so investigators have been scrutinizing all of this activity from the time that manafort joined the campaign in
8:20 am
time until he left the campaign in august. >> all right, jeff. thank you very much. we expect more developments throughout the course of the day. we'll bring you the details as they emerge. >> coverage continues all day on cbsn and we'll have a complete wrap-up tonight on the cbs evening news. >> many of you rsh will return cbs news. i'm charlie rose with norah o'donnell and gayle king. >> announcer: for more news, go to cbsnews.com. because i am so in tune with my hands and how things feel to me. when i pumped it out i was like, oh this is different. the foam was really light, fluffy , weightless. and it feels really moisturizing, not sticky. i have never tried anything like this as a body wash before.

8:35 am
cars safer. the other one is more accessful. and feeble more convenient. and even more important than that, we're thinking about what's next for toyota. how do we bring technology that's used for mobility in the streets into mobility within the home, particularly for aging society. >> elon musk has estimated almost every car will be autonomous by 2020 i think it is. what's your estimate? >> i don't know if that date is correct. we're coming out with something called the highway teammate in 2020 and that's going to allow for autonomous driving on the highway and urban driving after that. >> they're saying come and get ready for it. all of the cranky yankees who are afraid, you're saying relax because it's coming but you have options for us, do you not? >> that's absolutely right. we think automatic cars are going to be coming. we think about it in two ways. one is chauffeur mode,

the car drive for you when you can't or don't want to drank. >> i like that. >> the other which we think will come even sooner is guardian mode. it's a safety net underneath the driver. continues to drive the car, has lots of fun, and it prevents you from having an accident. >> has china set a date for phasing out fossil fueled driven cars? >> i think that's true. >> so what's standing in the way of self-driving cars as you see it? >> there's some technological barriers. they use perception. and planning to figure out where it should go. the last layer of that, the planning are actually pretty well in hand. prediction is the hard part. >> help us understand why you think it's in our favor. elon musk must

of all. they talk to me mostly about love and how the relationship between a person and a car is different than a person and a refrigerator. people love their cars. >> right. >> they tend not to love their refrigerators. and so what is the difference. the difference is that a car enables human autonomy. it's not really about autonomous cars. it's about the autonomy of people. we think we can extend that beyond cars particularly as the baby boom hits in the u.s. and we have many people trying to age in place. we think a lot of that technology can help people lead a better life. >> have you hugged your refrigerator? >> no, i haven't, not in a long time. but i love my car. >> gill pratt, so nice to talk to you. thank you. >> thank, you. >> kevin james and
