Inner circle in legal jeopardy. First, why did trump jr. Initially lie about the purpose of the meeting. Conflicting stories, for prosecutors like blood in the water for a shark. It attracts prosecutors and investigators. They want to know why there is conflicts. Then there is this. Do the emails contradict any Information Campaign associates have provided to the fbi that could lead to criminal charges. And furthermore. Why didnt Jared Kushner include the meeting when he submitted his Government Security clearance form. The most serious criminal issue, in these, in these controversies, comes done to false statements. For those of us who do criminal defense work, thats the crime we fear the most. Because the it is very hard to defend against. The government tend to use false statements to prosecute people in washington. More than any other crime. And another big question, do the emails point to violation of election law, by soliciting information that could be of value from a foreign agent. Lawyers we tacked to salked to is harder to prove. Senator mark warner of virginia, the top democrat on the Senate Intelligence committee. He joins to us night from the capitol. Good evening, senator. Good evening, anthony. Senator, how do the new emails affect your investigation . Well the last 24 hours is the first time that the public has seen evidence that Trump Officials were willing to accept information that was part of a russian government effort to, to, hurt Hillary Clinton and promote donald trump. And whats disturbing to me is not only that fact, but that, that once again, we have seen a pattern that it started, right after the election, through the transition, and throughout this administration, where now it is, more than a dozen Trump Campaign, or transition o. Current Administration Officials have constantly said they have no conversations with russians, didnt know anything about, any of these kind of, any kind of this intervention on behalf of, of, of, the russian government to intervene in our elections. Candidly, those kind of comments have now been disproven. The trump administration, senator, has denied any collusion between the campaign, the Trump Campaign and russia. Do you see any evidence of collusion here . My job is this investigation is to keep it bipartisan until all right facts. We see all the individuals. Have a chance to, to question donald trump jr. Have a chance to question Jared Kushner. A chance to question, Paul Manafort. And these individuals and reach of my conclusion. Boy, oh, boy, the idea that you have got these, email in black and white, that said to, to the president s son, hey, we have got damaging information on Hillary Clinton and this is part of a russian government effort to help his father, i dont see how any one can deny that this brings the investigation to a whole another level. This is a very, very disturbing pattern. If it happened once or twice. You might exkutz it cuse it. Youve dont make rookie mistake. Taking information from a foreign at ver scary like russia where the information is represented as part of a government effort to actually help a candidate. In this case, in this case, Hillary Clinton. Senator mark warner, thank you very much. Thank you, anthony. The senator says his Committee Plans to call donald trump jr. To testify soon.

From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im anthony mason. Thank you for watching. Welcome to theover. A bombshell. Standing at ground zero, Donald Trumps son don jr. Under pressure, junior released e mails showing he took a meeting with a russian lawyer prior to the election trying to get dirt on Hillary Clinton. According to the emails the dirt was part of russia and its Government Support for mr. Trump. Juniors response, i love it. Jeff pegues begins the coverage. The first email on june 3rd was blunt. Music publicist, rob gold stone wrote that an official promised to provide the Trump Campaign with documents and information that would incriminate hillary and dealings with russia. Goldstone said it was very high level Sensitive Information and, part of russia and its Government Support for mr. Trump. The president s son replied, if it is what you say i love it. The information goldstone wrote was coming from emin agalorov, a russian pop star whose father is a wealthy oligarch with ties to vladamir putin. Mr. Trump worked with both men to bring the Miss Universe pageant to moscow in 2013. Moscow is going to get hotter. Four days after the initial email, goldstone sent another message. This one said a russian government attorney was flying over from moscow. Trump junior agreed to meet with her june 9th and said Paul Manafort and Jared Kushner would they were copied on trump jr. s response. Then, candidate trump was at trump tower at the time of the meeting but the white house says he was unaware it was going on and only learned about it recently. Less than a week after the meeting, the Democratic National committee accused russia of hacking into its computer servers. The following month. Wikileaks began releasing stolen emails. The russian government lawyer, denied that she ever promised compromising information about clinton or that she worked for the kremlin. I do ndo not represent interest of any one else except myself in the situation today. Trump jr. Posted the emails to be transparent. But the New York Times says he released them only after hits reporters told him, that they had obtained the messages. Today, white house spokeswoman, Sarah Huckabee sanders read a staemt from the president praising his son. My son is a high quality person. And i applaud his transparency. Trump jr. Said again today the lawyer had no information to provide and wanted to talk about adoption policy. But that topic is never mentioned in those emails. We are going to be discussing all of the things that have taken place with the clintons. I think you are going to find it informative and very, very interesting. That was candidate trump in 2016. Two days before his son, don jr. Met with the russian lawyer at trump tower. No one knows what mr. Trump meant. But what followed was a steady context with russians. This was don jr. In july. It is disgusting. So phony. I cant thing of bigger lies. Three days later. It is just a total deflection the whole thing with brush yeah. Russia if you are listening. Ive hope you are able to the 30,000 emails that are missing. I have nothing to do with rush yeah. The same day, campaign chairman, Paul Manafort was asked about russian connections on cbs this morning. Can you tell us what you know about the relationship and what the campaign knows and what, donald trump believes. We, we have no relationship. The issue simmered through the transition. Senior adviser, Kellyanne Conway on face the nation. Did any one involved in the Trump Campaign have any contact with russians trying to meddle with the election. Absolutely not. Five days before the inauguration. Vice president elect, mike pence repeated the denial. Did any adviser or any body in the Trump Campaign have any contact with the russian whose were freeing to, to meddle in the election. Of course not. Shortly after taking office, President Trump fired his National Security adviser, michael flynn, for lying about his dealings with russian officials. Then came this denial. Can you say whether you aware of any one who advised your cam main had contact with russia during the course of the election. I told you general flynn was dealing. That was one person. As he should have been during the election. February that i know of. And again in may. This russia thing, with trump and russia, is a made up story. An excuse. By the democrats for having lost an election. The white house clung to denial as recently as yesterday. Deputy press secretary, Sarah Huckabee sanders. No one within the Trump Campaign colluded in order to influence the election. The president s statement about his son being high quality and transparent was specifically designed to steer clear of future legal issues and the meeting itself. The white house said the president is frustrated, the russia story simply will not go away. This is obviously very significant deeply disturbing. Of democrats described the email chain as a game changer. The e mails are the end of the idea pushed by the administration and the president , that there is absolutely no evidence of intent to coordinate or collude. Virginias tim kaine went further. Perjury. False statements. Even potentially treason. Republicans were troubled too. New yorks lee zeldin tweeted that meeting is a big no no. The most problematic thing received thus far. The Trump Campaign should have reported the encounter to the fbi right away. Have an email. Suggesting the government wants to help the Trump Campaign you. Have a response from don jr. Saying i love it. Trump jr. Insist hes had to listen if the russian lawyer had info about an opponent. I asked Floridas Marco Rubio who ran for president himself last year, what he would have done. I would be suspicious. I am antiputin. I would be suspicious. Would you report it to the authorities . I think i would have. The trump team changing stories about who they met with and when have left few republicans welling to go to bat for them on russia. Oklahomas jim inhof fichltz one of them. You guys, trying to spend every breathing moment trying to destroy trump. You know. Vice president pence was here on capitol hill today. But, took no questions. His office says that he was unaware of this controversial meeting and that, he is no longer focused on the campaign. Especially, the part that took place anthony before he joined the ticket.

Senate majority leader, Mitch Mcconnell has his way a lot of congressional families will be canceling Summer Vacation plans. Mcconnell wants to delay the summer recess which usually begins end of the month until the middle of august. The idea is to give the gop leadership more time to pass a new health care bill. Nancy cordes has the the story from capitol hill. This tradition of an august congressional recess dates back to a time before air conditioning when members of congress had to get out of town because it was just too painful here in the nations capital. But now, some republicans are starting to worry about the heat they will get back home if they leave for the entire month of august, without fulfilling major promises. We should be locked on the house floor until we get things done. Calls for a big congressional scheduling change are getting louder. I am ready to work through august. We cannot be taking a vacation or break in august if we havent done the peoples work. I can tell you if you did a vote out in the real world they would vote for us to stay here and get their work done. Georgia senator david purdue is one of many republicans pushing to do away with the annual fiveweek break. In a let tire majority leader mill mcconnell, purdue and nine colleagues point out, there are only 31 working days until the end of the fiscal year. In that time, republicans want to pass a health care bill, tackle tax reform, plus, Congress Needs to fund the government, and raise the debt limit. The gridlock up here is not understood by people back home nor going to be tolerated. Maine republican Susan Collins served in congress for more than two decade. Why does congress go home so often and for such a long period of time . We learned so much when we do go home. It gives us the chance to spend extended periods of time with our constituents. Congress is actually on track to spend more days in session this year, than the 20 year h e average. As Republican Leaders try to make the most of their control of congress and the white house. Look, if time were the only consideration. Absolutely staying through august would make sense. The congressional scholar says so far republicans dont have much to show for the extra workdays. They dont have a consensus of the votes. And they refuse to try and broaden that base, to find consensus, by bringing in democarts. It was the city of angels versus the city of light in a bid to host a 2024 summer olympics. Photo finish. In the end they beth won. The International Olympic committee agreed that both paris and los angeles will host a summer games. One in 2024, the other in 2028. The only thing left to decide, who goes first. Jamie yuccas is in l. A. 2024, 2028. When you wait that long there is a big impact on budget and of course venue. Here at los angeles coliseum. They would need track installation and upgrades before theyre ready to host the world. Los angeles may your, is in a sprint to the finish line in switzerland. Where the International Olympic committee is deciding if it will award back to back games in 2024 and 202. Something it has never done before. This moment requires bold new solutions, bold new thinking. And i think los angeles is well poised, in the best poised, to be able to answer those questions for the Olympic Movement today. But for l. A. To win the earlier date, the committee will have to overlook an historic hook. 2024 would mark the 100th anniversary of paris, hosting the games. French president macron said this morning that paris is better suited to defend the games values of openness and tolerance. Which is being challenged by others. Everything which makes the olympic spirit, and which gathers us today. And today the values are at risk. I think it is very consistent with the french way. The prize, 2024. We were never talking 2028 until the ioc brought up the possibility. Then we, then we have to deal with that. Initially, boston also got the chance to bid. Along with rome, hamburg and budapest for 2024. But all four cities dropped out. Over cost and size concerns. David wharton covers the olympics for los angeles times. So the Olympic Committee touts this as a win, win, win. But really, they need to make this happen. A deal, deal, deal. They kind of have to, give up something to get one city to wait. Beth paris and los angeles are hoping to put on the games without a hefty price tag. Los angeles is budgeting more than 5 billion. Less than half the estimated cost of the rio olympics. And a fraction of the 51 billion sochi reportedly spent on the 2014 winter games. If l. A. Doesnt get the games until 2028 there is concern it could lose momentum. No one ever put on the games where it was planned 11 years in advance. How do you keep that going . That will be a challenge. But for those involved in bringing the olympics back to l. A. It is game on. Los angeles is so proud of the 1932, 1984 olympics. And they would look Nothing Better than to prove, they can do it, three times in a row. A final decision on which city goes first is expected in september. Nasa scientists are devising their plan to send a manned spacecraft to mars. But theyre also working to protect the earth against the possibility fee of a catastrophic asteroid strike. Dana jacobson has the story.

System on the moon of the dart asteroid, and the satellite launches into space in 2020 with plans for impact, in 2022. Thats why we are doing this demonstration on the moon. Of an asteroid. Because, we can change its orbit around, it much more easily and be able to measure the change we make much more easily. Small meteors hit earth daily. Breaking up in the upper atmosphere. Mostly going unnoticed. But several have been caught shooting across the sky. But the damage they can cause isnt just the stuff of fiction. In 1908, an asteroid flattened hundreds of miles of forest in siberia. In 2013, a meteor, 65 feet wide, exploded. Injuring 1500. And damaging thousand of buildings. There are no threatening asteroid that we noif. B know of. Though the way probability works. We dont think were due. Not the sort of thing you can predict like that. I guess the best part of the story is no threatening asteroids, that we know of. The cbs overnight news will be right back. Every year, kids miss 22 Million School days due to illness.
