President trump promised to crack down and now a Government Contractor has been charged with leaking secrets about russian interference with the u. S. Election. Heres our chief White House Correspondent major garrett. Reporter last last month, President Trump described leaks of classified information as a grave threat to our National Security. Mr. Trumps Justice Department has now charged 25yearold reality leigh winner, a National SecurityAgency Contract employee, with leaking a topsecret report on Russian Election hacking. Winner, whose social media postings sharply criticized President Trump, faces up to 10 years in prison. Winners stepfather gary davis. Shes dedicated, you know, to trying to make the world a better place. Reporter the charge was filed less than two hours after the online publication the intercept posted the document. According to court documents, winner was one of just six individuals who printed a copy of the n. S. A. Report. She allegedly mailed that copy to the intercept and computer records show she was also an email contact with the publication. The leaks are real. Reporter shortly after taking office, President Trump lashed out at what he calls lowlife leakers. Ive actually called the Justice Department to look into the leaks. Those are criminal leaks. Reporter leaks have long bedeviled president s, but prosecutions were rare until the Obama Administration. According to the a. C. L. U. , the obama Justice Department prosecuted eight cases of National Security leaks, more than double all Previous Administration combined. President s faith in his attorney general may be waning. Press secretary sean spicer. How would you describe the president s level of confidence in the attorney general, Jeff Sessions . I have not had a discussion with him about that. Reporter spicer was given not one but two chances to express the president s confidence in sessions and did not. Scott, only yesterday, via twitter, the president publicly criticized the Justice Departments handling of the travel ban litigation and he remains irked about sessions decision to recuse himself from the russia investigation. Pelley major, thank you. Well, our Homeland Security correspondent jeff pegues has more about that leaked document and how it fits in to the investigation of russian meddling in the plngz. Reporter u. S. Intelligence is still gathering new evidence of russian cyberattacks before election day. The leaked top secret n. S. A. Report was only recently completed. It details how a week before november 8, haerkz connected to Russian Military intelligence sent emails laced with malware to 122 local officials controlling Voter Registration systems. The brazen scheme came just weeks after thenpresident obama personally told russian president Vladimir Putin to stop the attacks. I felt that the most effective way to ensure that that didnt happen was to talk to him directly and tell him to cut it out. Reporter Law Enforcement source say voter databases nationwide were targeted by Russian Hackers over a sixmonth period ahead of the election. So you think the worstcase scenario was that they were actually trying to affect the vote total . I think that was their hope. Reporter jim lewis advises the u. S. Government on cybersecurity. I think that they were expecting to be able to manipulate votes in some way, maybe discredit the electoral system, which they came closer to doing. Reporter u. S. Fors still believe the vote total was not affected. There is nothing more fundamental to our democracy than voting. Reporter today, Homeland Security secretary john kelly said his department wants to help states secure their Voting System but that some are wary of federal intrusion. Do you see us as partners and helpers in this to help make sure that your systems are protected. Reporter today, the kremlin again denied interfering in the election.

Jeff, thank you. Cbs news has learned this evening that Russian Hackers are suspected of interfering with a news site in the gulf state of qatar, and they may have put out fake information. The f. B. I. Is assisting in the investigation. Meanwhile, qatar is at the center of a crisis. A number of arab nations have cut diplomat and i can commercial ties, and heres Margaret Brennan. Reporter President Trump appeared to take credit for spark the diplomatic crisis. In a series of tweets, the president said his recent visit to saudi arabia was paying off, as the kingdom and nine other countries severed relations with qatar for allegedly funding radical ideology. But president made no mention of that last month when he met with the qatari emir. Instead, offering to sell him weapons. Lots of beautiful military equipment. Reporter during that trip, the president vowed to unify the muslim world against terrorism and iran. But tensions spiked in the past 24 hours, with countries in the region closing their air space to qatari planes, block trade, and cutting diplomatic ties, sparking qataris to stockpile food. The u. S. Launches air strikes against isis and syria in iraq from a base in qatar, the tiny gulf emirate hosts around 10,000 u. S. Troops. Thats one reason secretary of state Rex Tillerson has tried to deescalate the crisis. We certainly would encourage the parties to sit down together and address these differences. Reporter and yesterday, u. S. Ambassador dana smith praised qatars Great Partnership in countering terrorist financing. Smith has broken with the president before, lamenting last month on twitter that it is increasingly difficult to spend the day explaining our democracy and institutions. Today, state Department SpokespersonHeather Nauert tried to soften the president s comments on qatar. They have made progress, but they still have work to do, more work needs to be done. Reporter smith is not the only frustrated longterm diplomat. But, scott, while President Trump wants his own nominees in place, hes only appointed 11 ambassadors to fill 188 independent state department slots. Pelley Margaret Brennan at the state department, thanks. In paris today, a man attacked a Police Officer with a hammer outside notre dame cathedral, shouting, this is for syria. Fellow officers shot and wound the man, who carried an i. D. Indicating that he was from algeria. The officer who was attacked was not seriously hurt. About 600 tourists were locked inside the cathedral as police secured the scene. Today, British Police identified the third of the London Bridge attackers who killed seven and wounded nearly 50 on saturday night. Youssef zagbah, 22 years old, of italian and moroccan heritage, was identified today. He and khuram butt were known to the police leading some to wonder whether the attack might have been prevented. The truth, is the police in britain are overwhelmed, and Mark Phillips has more on that. Reporter after the carnage, the questions what can be learned from this attack to prevent more of them . Police here say theyre already monitoring 500 suspects, have 3,000 other people of interest on their radar, and know of 20,000 other potential surveillance targets beyond that. The volume issue has become a major challenge for the Police Intelligence agencies. Reporter Richard Walton used to run londons antiterror unit and says it can take dozens of officers to watch just one suspect. The police can only be devote to the top, you know, three, four, 5 of those individuals reporter and how do you pick who they are . And how do you pick who they are . You cant monitor 3,000 individuals all over time. Reporter the socalled new normal keeps changing, especially as frsh on isis continues to build in syria and iraq. The london attacks are the sting in the isis tail. This is a death cult. This is an entity that realize its losing territory in iraq and syria and wants to take out as many people as it can. Reporter sajjan gohel advises governments and police on terrorism, and says trying to counter isis propaganda doesnt work when, like the london attacks, some are just too far gone. There are bad people out there who have violent tendencys. They have no hesitation to kill children, mow people down. Reporter what works is fast and lethal police action, but that, as weve seen, scott, only limits the damage. Theyve started putting up these concrete barriers on some of londons bridges, protection, they hope, against vehicle attacks on pedestrians. Closing the barn door, perhaps, after the horse has bolted, and also while they try to figure out what to do next. Pelley Mark Phillips thanks.
