into a comprehensive immigration reform? >> reporter: for a moment mr. trump appeared willing. >> we'll do daca. and then we can start immediately on the phase two which would be comprehensive. >> reporter: then house majority leader kevin mccarthy, mindful of conservative opposition, redirected the president. >> mr. president, you need to be clear, though, i think ha senator feinstein is asking here, when we talk about daca, we don't want to be back here two years later. you have to have security, as the secretary would tell you. >> i think that's what she says. >> oh, no, no, i think she's saying something different. >> what do you think you're saying in >> i think you're saying daca without security. >> reporter: but mr. trump seemed to be in a mood the make a deal, pressing the lawmakers to go further. >> if we do this properly, daca, you're not so far away from comprehensive immigration reform. and if you want to take it that further step, i'll take the heat. i don't care. >> reporter: he did renew his calls for a border wall. >> i would love not to build the wall, but you need the wall. >> repor

number-two house democrat steny hoyer left the door open. >> we are prepared to work with the president on border security, which means many things to many people. >> reporter: approving daca will expose the president to charges he sold out his political base. that's why the white house is trying to drive a hard bargain on other immigration issues. the president said today he can take the heat. congress is about to find out if that's true. jeff? >> glor: major garrett, thanks very much. it was an extraordinary scene along the border of north and south korea as leaders of the two countries met for the first time in more than two years. ben tracy is in seoul. >> reporter: just before 10:00, five north koreans walked across the border into the south and shook hands with their south korean counterparts. a scene unthinkable just weeks ago. the delegation from the north turned on the charm, calling the south koreans their brethren in offering what they build as

the north is sending its athletes to the winter olympics next month. north korea will also send a cheering section and performing arts group. south korea even wants the two countries to march together in the opening ceremonies. the south is also hoping to resume reunions of families separated during the korean war. the talks went on for nearly four hours with both kim jong-un and south korean president moon jae-in able to listen in, but the biggest issue of all, the north's nuclear arsenal, was not discussed. however, the two sides did decide to reopen a military hot line used to avoid accidental conflicts. john delury is an expert on north korean affairs. does the north participating in the olympics really matter? >> in and of itself, the olympics is not going to solve anything, but if the olympics is a starting point, then it can really open up the channel between the north and the south,

olympics the stepping stone to something else. >> reporter: the north koreans are showing no willingness to put their nuclear weapons on the negotiating table, but at the end of the talks, the north korean representative did say that all of those weapons are pointed at the united states and not at south korea. jeff? >> glor: ben tracy, thanks. the weekend launch of a top-secret u.s. satellite by spacex ended in failure. details on this from national security correspondent david martin at the pentagon. >> mission liftoff. >> reporter: the launch was a success. >> we have had successful liftoff of falcon nine carrying zuma. >> reporter: but the top-secret spy satellite it was carrying died. a u.s. official toll cbs news the satellite, code named "zuma" failed to achieve its intended orbit and crashed into the indian ocean, a total loss. it was launched sunday night atop a falcon 9 rocket made by spacex, e

revolutionize space technology. >> stage one. >> reporter: the rocket's first stage returned to earth, so it could be used again. the second stage carried the satellite toward what was supposed to be a low-earth orbit, from which it could carry out its intelligence mission. spacex released a statement saying, "after review of all data to date, falcon 9 did everything correctly on sunday night." but northrup grumman, which made the zuma satellite, remained silent, saying it could not comment on a classified mission. it appears the satellite failed to separate from the rocket's second stage. an airline pilot took this picture of what is believed to be the second stage over africa as it descended toward earth, presumably taking the satellite with it. the spiral effect is created by venting fuel. zuma's mission remains a secret, so we don't know the intelligence central yaw of what was lost or how much m

congresswoman john schakowsky introduced a bill that would notify consumingers sooner and protect them longer after a breech. what happened to all those proposals? >> i would say mainly the reason is that corporations, credit reporting agencies are uninterested, well, let me put it another way, they oppose the idea of having more regulation that would protect the data. >> reporter: at least one republican senator john thune told us if congress is going the make fix, they shouldn't rush into something just for the sake of appearances. they should make sure those fixes are going to work. meanwhile, equifax told us it is making data security improvements and accountability measures. jeff? >> glor: anna werner in washington, d.c., an narcotic thank you. now to some other stories we're following in the evening news feed. president trump's one-time chief strategist is out of a job again. steve bannon stepped down today as executive chairman of breitbart news. bannon h
