Glor good evening. Scott is off tonight. Im jeff glor. The new congress was sworn in today with republicans again in control of both the houses. But first there was a fire to put out. It started when House Republicans attempted to weaken an ethics panel over the objections of their own leaders, and it turns out the president elect. Conditional correspondent nancy cordes is on capitol hill. Do you solemnly swear. Reporter the first controversy of the 115th congress came even before members were sworn in. House republicans voted to gut the office of congressional ethics only to reverse themselves 19 hours later in the face of bipartisan condemnation. Virginia republican dave brat. Part of it is the headlines were we were backing off on ethics. Thats not a good headline. Reporter the white house called it revealing. Thats not draining the swamp. Reporter the final straw came in the form of a social media tweet from donald trump, who usualed the party to focus on tax reform, health care and so many greater things of far greater importance. That prompted an emergency meeting and an aboutface. Its been withdrawn. Its been withdrawn. Reporter republicans say they still intend to reform the office, which currently has the power to investigate anonymous complaints that can turn out to be baseless. Iowas steve king. Jesus had the right the face his accusers. He asserted that before the high priest, and were saying members of congress shouldnt . Reporter some democrats saw todays flipflop as a gift, but missouris Emmanuel Cleaver argued the episode hurt both sides. Everybody is getting an avalanche of angry phone calls from around the country on this issue. Reporter what are people saying . Well, theyre saying you guys are trying to remove any kind of ethical standards. You guys want to be able to do wrong and hide. Glor all right, nancy, what are the republican priorities now . Reporter well, their first goal in this new congress, jeff, is to do away with obamacare, something theyve been trying unsuccessfully to do for years but now have their shot with a republican soontobe in the white house. So theyre aiming to pass bill by the end of the week that would make it easier for them to repeal the entire Health Care Law within the next month or two. President obama is coming up here to capitol hill tomorrow, urging democrats to stand their ground, though, jeff, its not clear that they have much legislatively they can do about it. Glor nancy, 34 senators sworn in today as well as the entire house. Can you talk about some of the new faces . Well, there are some firsts here in the senate. Kamala harris of california is part indianamerican. You have katherine cortezmasto of nevada, the first latina in the senate. Liz chaney is now a member of the house of representatives, the daughter, of course, of former Vice President dick cheney. Shes representing wyoming, and a onceundocumented immigrant from new york is also joining congress, a first. Glor nancy cordes, thank you very much. It is tminus 17 days and counting to the trump inauguration. There is some controversy about the parade that will follow along pennsylvania avenue. Reporter performing in an inaugural parade is considered an honor, something to cheer. These days its also considered something to protest. The mormon tabernacle choir often participates. It has sung in five inaugurations over the last half century. But this time member Jan Chamberlain resigned from the choir rather than sing for president elect donald trump. I have the take a stance against something that i see as coming across the others throughout the world as supporting someone with horrible practices and beliefs, and i cant support that. Reporter groups from new yorks Marist College will perform for the first time, but several students are refusing to appear, and the college is under pressure from alumni like Kelly Hetrick to back out. Its also sending the message that were okay with the things that the president elect says. Reporter alabamas oldest private historically black liberal arts college also plans to march, but its taking some heat for doing it. There are petitions online, both for and against the Talladega College marching bands appearance. Were open arms to everybody. Reporter but Boris Epshteyn with the Trump Inaugural Committee says who is in and who is not does not matter. I will tell you, this will be an inaugural unlike any other, and it will truly, truly, truly show off the best of america. Reporter important people who have now confirmed that they will attend, president s jimmy carter, george w. Bush and his wife laura, and hillary and president bill clinton. Jeff . Glor anna werner, thank you very much. Under pressure from the president elect, ford today scrapped plans to build a factory in mexico. It will expand a plant in michigan the build electric and selfdriving vehicles. The company says that will create 700 jobs. Here was ford c. E. O. Mark fields on our streaming networks cbsn. One of the factors we look at is what we expect to be a more positive u. S. Manufacturing Business Environment under president elect trump and also looking at the progrowth policies and reforms both tax and regulatory reforms that hes been talking about, so it is a consideration, and its a vet of confidence that hell be able to deliver on those things. Glor also today mr. Trump threatened to take action against general motors. He tweeted, g. M. Is sending mexicanmade models of chevy cruze to u. S. Car dealers taxfree across u. S. Border. Make in u. S. A. Or pay big border tax. In response ford said most cruz cruz chevy cruzes are built in the u. S. , only a small number of hatchbacks are built many mexico. Overseas police are rounding up information on the man who attacked on new years. John vigliotti is in istanbul. Reporter new video today from the Turkish Police showed the suspected gunman filming himself in istanbul days before the nightclub attack. It is similar to a video that surfaced after the attack on the berlin Christmas Market where an isisinspired militant also took selfies. Turbish police have still not released the gunmans name. Its not clear if they have it yet. What they do know is that he arrived at the club by taxi, striking at 1 15 a. M. He killed a Police Officer at the entrance and barely missed the clubs coowner, who jumped over a railing. When i opened my eyes, he was still there, said ali unal. I was thinking of jumping on him, but he seemed so professional and flexible. Inside the gunman moved methodically, using several ammunition clips, indications he may be an experienced shooter. In his wake, 39 dead, nearly 70 injured, many of them tourists. Police say he left the club in another taxi heading to an apartment near the airport only to walk casually away. Police searched the apartment but turned up nothing. [gunfire] isis sympathizers online are already claiming the gunman has escaped back the isis territory, possibly across the border to syria. Police have now detained 16 people, including two at the airport who Police Believe may have helped the killer in his attack. The Turkish Police have taken an unusual approach to handling this investigation, leaking a steady drip of information to friendly local media instead of going on the record. Jeff, this allows them to release crucial photos of the suspect while giving them deniability if they dont catch him. Glor jonathan, thank you. The Holiday Travel season came to an end with a series of headscratching incidents. First Customs Computers went out for several hours yesterday at a number of International Airports causing long lines for returning travelers. Kris van cleve is following this. Kris . Reporter jeff, customs says theres in signs of any sinister activity here, but this outage couldnt have come at a worse time. It was like a line of 1,000 people or more, and it was absolutely despicable. Reporter it was a nightmare for International Flyers with lines lasting for hours. Miamis airport was particularly hard hit. The outage came right as 30 or so flights were arriving. Officers had to manually check each passenger before they could be cleared. Flyers who have global entry and are used to speeding through customs in minutes, well, last night it took hours. Hundreds missed their connecting flights. Now customs says the outage appears to be due the a Software Update that was installed last week. That update caused the system to crash. But, jeff, at this point everything appears to be running normally. Glor kris, there were a couple other unnerving airline events over the past couple days. Reporter absolutely. Take a lack at this video. Southwest flight 3556 flying from san antonio. The airline says the 133 passengers on board had to put on oxygen masks after a pressurization problem developed in flight. The boeing 737 diverted to jacksonville, where it was met by emergency vehicles. There were no injuries. And a bag act worker was not injured sunday after being locked in the cargo hold of a United Express flight from charlotte. Crews on the ground at washingtons Dulles Airport found him there once the plane landed after an hourlong flight. The worker declined medical attention. We should tell you that cargo hold is pressurized. Still, the f. A. A. Is going to investigate how this situation happened and how no one appeared to notice that it had happened. Jeff .

The storm raked across his family farm, destroying a 50yearold barn. Its the worst wind that i have been through. Reporter he rode out the storm with his wife, huddled in an interior room of his home. The tornado sirens went off probably 30 seconds ahead of it. Reporter is that all the time you had . I think so because it built so fast. Reporter in jackson, alabama, blinding rain flooded the streets while the high winds ripped the roofs off of homes an left thousands without power. Even animals at the Alabama Gulf Coast Zoo had to duck for cover after the storm that ridded their enclosures. Patty hall is the asks director.

So she posted video of her twoyearold twins knocking over the dresser in their room. One was pinned. For two minutes the other searched for a way to help before nudging the dresser off of him. Their mom says the dresser was made by ikea. The company could not confirm that but says it tells consumers all dressers must be secured to the wall using anchors it provides. Ikea recalled millions of dressers last year following the deaths of three children. In amaral, texas, four children were killed yet after an accidental poisoning at their home. Their father set off a Chemical Reaction while using professional grade pesticide. Mireya villarreal is there.

Authorities say the thieves made their way to the sixthfloor offices and waited until the stroke of midnight before making their move. 7,000 n. Y. P. D. Officers were on duty nearby. The n. Y. P. D.

Glor a century after the titanic sank in the north atlantic, there are new clues to the cause of the disaster. Researchers say it wasnt just ice but fire. Heres mark phillips. She was the largest ship ever built. Reporter the documentary gives a new twist to an old story. And yet her Maiden Voyage would be her last. Reporter Everybody Knows why the titanic went down, she hit an iceberg, and despite being supposedly designed as unsinkable, she sank and took 1,500 lives with her, but that, the filmmakers say, isnt the whole story. The whole story involves a fire that had been smoldering for days in one of the vessels coal storage bunkers. Look at this anomaly in the hull. Reporter a fire whose heat may have severely weakened the ship and hastened its sinking. The new theory comes from recently discovered old photos of the titanics launching. They gambled . Yes. Reporter irish journalist Senan Maloney had been working on the fire theory for years. He says the dark patch on the titanics hull shows the coal was burning even as the ship was being launched. The intensity of the fire not only weakened the forward bulkhead but also may have caused that severe deformity to the hull and the ship put to sea with an outofcontrol fire that required 12 men to try the tackle it for most of the Maiden Voyage. Reporter the coal fire was known about at the time and was dismissed as the cause of the disaster by the official enquiry that followed it. The smoldering fuel was dug out and burned in the ships boilers, but maloney says the mead to get rid of that burning coal quickly may have been one of the reasons titanic kept going at high speed despite knowing there were icebergs around. Almost 105 years later, theres still enough doubt and interest to keep the story of the worlds most famous maritime disaster alive. Mark phillips, cbs news, london.
