"the wall street journal" published a story friday detailing allegations of sexual coercion and inappropriate behavior carried out by wynn at his casinos. the allegations date back decades. >> wynn says it's all part of a smear campaign directed against him by his ex-wife. forbes estimates wynn's net worth to be $3.5 billion. he founded the mirage, the bellagio, and the one that bearinbears his name. he is also the finance chair of the republican national committee. tony has more. >> not only is wynn the rnc's finance chair, he's a mega donor to republican candidates and causes. he is the first ceo of a publicly held company to face chargers like this since harvey weinstein had his charges last year. and the board of directors is opening an investigation to look into claims reported by "the wall street journal." "the wall street journal" details a pattern of behavior in sh steve wynn pressured female employees to engain in sex sexual behavior with him. the article details one instance where a manicurist had sex with him after he made demands of her. he settled with her for $7.5 million. the reportdozens of accounts of women that have worked for him. his statement -- the idea that i ever assaulted any woman is prep preposterous. we find ourselves in a world where people can make allegations and the person is left with the choice of weathering insulting publicity or engaging in multiyear lawsuits. but the reaction from the allegations have been swicht. shares of wynn resorts plunged 10% on the news, and the massachusetts gaming commission is launching a review of wynn resort's state gaming license. the company is in the midst of building a $2.5 billion casino and hotel in a boston suburb. the fallout is also impacting the political world. wynn took over as the republican national committee's finance chair at the request of then president-elect donald trump. the two men had been rivals since the '80s when they ran competing casinos in atlantic city. wynn told ""cbs this morning"" last year, they put that rivalry decide. >> did you decide to let bygones by bygones? >> that was a long time, back when dogs could talk an a long time ago. and both of us are too old to have any enemies. >> wynn has donated more than $2 million to gop candidates and organizations since 2013. the rnc has not commented on whether wynn will remain in his post. and that's put democrats on the attack. a democratic national committee statement used the words of the rnc chairwoman ron that mcdaniel -- >> if you stand for treating women well and you stand for the respect of women, you shouldn't take money from somebody who treated women with the absolute highest level of disrespect. >> mcdaniel said those words about harvey weinstein after he was accused of sexual misconduct by dozens of women. it's unclear if any candidates will return money donated by steve wynn, but that 10% drop in wynn resorts share price, it personally costs steve wynn more than $200 million. >> it's steve wynn's birthday. a lot going on in the wynn household. tony, thank you. meanwhile, the "new york times" reports a senior adviser to hillary clinton's 2008 presidential campaign who was accused of repeatedly sexually harassing a young subordinate who was kept on the campaign at clinton's request. she did not fire bernstrader. he was instead docked several weeks of pay and ordered to undergo counseling. the woman who accused him was moved to a new job. last night hillary clinton tweeted she was dismayed about the incident but proud that she came forward. she did not explain why she was kept on the campaign. president trump firing back about reports he ordered if the firing of special counsel robert mueller. he is said to have backed off but only after the white house lawyer threatened to quit. >> reporter: what's noteworthy here is the white house is not denying reports that president trump wanted to dismiss special counsel robert mueller last summer. instead, the president's lawyer is touting the administration's cooperation with the investigation, noting that 20 white house staffers have submitted to voluntary interviews. president trump returned from switzerland to the white house friday evening. huddled with his communications staff on marine one, he stopped only to address questions from reporters about his davos trip. >> i think it was a very, very successful trip. >> reporter: neither the white house nor white house counsel has issued a denial of the report that mr. trump wanted special counsel robert mueller fired. cbs continue if i wered last june president trump was angry about mueller's investigation and raised concerns about three possible conflicts of interest. but top white house advisers told mr. trump the conflicts of interest were not grounds to fire mueller and that doing so would be politically catastrophic, leaving the president to drop the idea. >> are you going to fire robert mueller? >> fake news, folks. fake news. typical "new york times" fake stories. >> reporter: before reporting davos, the president suggested the reports were false, using his address to say the u.s. is open for business. >> but america first does not mean america alone. when the united states grows, so does the world. >> reporter: his two-day visit was also a chance to make up for some differeplomatic missteps. >> very honored to be with the president. >> reporter: in a meeting with rwanda's president, he ignored questions about his allege use of a vulgar term to refer to africa nations. >> your comments about african countries? >> reporter: and in an interview with political journalist piers morgan, he was asked to apologize for retweeting anti-muslim content from a far-right group back in november. >> if you're it willing me they're horribly racist people, i would certainly apologize if you would like me to do that. >> reporter: president trump is expected to be interviewed by special counsel mueller at some point here if the next few weeks. earlier, the president told reporters he is, quote, looking forward to it. anthony? >> harold barnett at the white house, thank you. joining us with a deeper look at all of this is saha kapur, national political editor for bloomberg news. thanks for being here. >> thank you. >> let's start with probably the most pressing issue in washington, the immigration issue and daca. was the white house proposal what you expected? >> for the most part. there was one intriguing part in there the president offering a path to citizenship for those brought here as children. that's notable, but there are a series of wishes of hard-liners and aimmigration advocates in there including some $25 billion for border security, cutting citizenship and green cards, siblings, parents. there's a lot in there for the left and right to like and hate. >> at the end of the day, doesn't this come down to immigration hard-liners in the house as all immigration proposals do? i mean, democrats may get to a point where they can say yes but it's all about the house, isn't it? >> that's where immigration legislation goes to die in the past 12 years. 2006, 2013, bims were pa sbills. the republicans did not do anything. this is where president trump comes in. he has a special credibility with house conservative lawmakers because the nativists or anti-immigration republican base respects president trump. so if he takes a strong position and if he's consistent on the issue of immigration, which is key because he's not been consistent so far -- >> is there still confusion about what the white house will accept still? >> absolutely there is, and that's been a huge problem. the president has shifted his stances. he's gone from deferring to congress, not drawing red lines to drawing red line, and there's fear among republicans in congress, especially the leadership, the president won't end up sticking to his stance and he'll end up blowing them off political ply and take heat for stances they don't like. >> we got reports this week president trump may have tried to fire robert mueller and was dissuaded from doing so by his white house counsel don mcgahn, who threatened to quit. what are the implications going forward for mueller's investigation? >> this piece of news is the latest bread crumb in a long trail that could lead to a case of obstruction of justice against the president, and there's been a lot of intrigue about that in part because of the president's own actions and rhetoric, talking about, you know, going all the way back to connecting his firing of former fbi director james comey to his frustrations with the russia investigation, the way he dealt with his former national security adviser michael flynn, a tweet suggesting he might have known he lied to the fbi. we don't know what kind of case robert mueller will bring or what kind of evidence he has, if some is exculpatory. but the big question on everybody's mind is when will the president talk to bob mueller and if he will or if he'll back out. >> do you think this report in any way changes the investigation? >> we don't know. we don't know what kind of evidence the special counsel has. he's not giving reporters updates. he's keeping his cards close to the vest. >> there's another big moment for the president on the horizon, the state of the union address. what are the expectations he might address there? >> it will probably be heavy on economics. we expect he'll make it about himself, because he tends to do that. he'll talk about the economy doing well, stock market at record highs, unemployment is low. so he'll take credit for that, talk about his corporate tax cuts and business deregulation have been a large part of that. >> well, all eyes on, on tuesday night. great to see you. thanks as always. >> thank you. >> tomorrow morning on "face the nation" on cbs, nancy cordes' guest will include susan collins, senator bernie sanders of vermont, and a special interview with illinois senator tammy duckworth. there's more fallout this morning from the sexual abuse scandal involving larry nassar, the former dock from the u.s. olympic gymnastics team. on friday, hundreds of michigan state students protested the university's handling of charges against nassar who was also the school's sports doctor. they demanded greater accountability. last night usa gymnastics said all the remaining members of its board of directors will resign. several have already left. nassar was sentenced this week to as many as 175 years in prison for abusing more than 150 athletes. dr. john lapook reports on the questions facing the team and the university. >> reporter: amanda was one of the more than 156 women who confronted larry nassar during his sentencing hearing. >> i didn't know who to tell, and i was scared smo no one would believe me. sometimes i had a hard time believing myself, but in the end i knew i had to report it. >> reporter: in 2014, she complained to michigan state university that she has been sexually abused by nassar. the university conducted a sexual harassment investigation and cleared him. the report give on the tomashaw concluded, we cannot find the conduct was of a sexual nature but said her claim would help them examine practices at msu. a different, more detailed conclusion was sent to nassar and his boss at michigan state. unknown to tomashay, the report found significant problems the practice will want to address, including exposing patients to unnecessary trauma based on the possibility of perceived inappropriate sexual misconduct and the failure to obtain consent. the report also recommended a chaperon during a sensitive procedure. nevertheless -- >> larry nassar was cleared to practice again under new guidelines that were never enforced. >> a 2017 michigan state university police investigation stated at least 12 assaults were rotted after nassar was cleared in 2014. many of them were at msu and involved the lack of a chaperon during sensitive procedures and ungloved skin-to-skin contact. tomashaw told cbs news she felt anger and betrayed that her university concealed critically important information from her. for "cbs this morning saturday," dr. john lapook, new york. a louisiana man has been convicted of manslaughter in the killing of former nfl player joe mcknight. ronald gasser's attorneys claim the 2016 shooting was a road rage incident and that gasser feared for his life. police said gasser and mcknight were driving aggressively for five miles before gasser shot and killed mcknight. gasser faces as much as 40 years in prison when he is sentenced in march. there are new indications this morning of just how nasty this year's flu season has become. the centers for disease control and prevention said there have been 37 child deaths from the flu so far this season, this as 39 states over the past week reported high flu traffic as the virus contributed to roughly 6% of overall hospital visits. manuel bojorquez has more. >> reporter: concerns about this aggressive flu season are spreading, especially after the deaths of seemingly healthy people like 37-year-old carly slaven of indiana. she just helped her children and husband recover from the virus. >> she was struggling taking deep breaths. i never even got a chance to talk with her again. >> reporter: the cdc is saying the flu is more severe and sending more people to the hospital at a higher rate since 2009. by the end of this season it's predicted 700,000 will have been hospitalized and 34 million will have contracted the virus. the second hardest hit group, baby boomers. doctors like bobby kapur of jacksonville's hospital are urging people not to let their guard down even though flu season is halfway over. >> the confluence of event, also a perfect storm, where we have baby boomers have lower numbers than typical for vaccinations. >> a nasty string and a segment of the population that may have not gotten the shot. >> that's right. >> reporter: it's hitting schools and children are bringing it home. >> we're seeing more clusters of case, and that will lead to a more prolonged flu season with higher cases toward the end of the season. >> reporter: the reports of flu-related deaths are enough for those who typically skip the shot to get it. like mitch philpot of texas. >> bam, they're gone, like that, which is scary. >> reporter: to be clear, it's not the worst season on record, and doctors say there's no reason to panic. the cd says it is aware supplies of to the medicine used to fight the virus could be low in sensitive areas and is working to get more there. for "cbs this morning saturday," i'm manuel bojorquez in miami. reuters reports south korean president moon jae-in is

the response we saw, gayle is quietly fib rill lating over there about this. what is it? do people like to be smarter than other people? >> i think it's a curiosity for knowledge and a desire to learn, right? it also helps bring people together. so we're seeing -- >> all ages, too, that's what o's so fun about it. >> for example, dan rather played with his family. his grandson and family all contributed for the big win. so we're seeing people from 8 to 80 play and that's really question. >> it's the foe moe element, th ♪ welcome back to "cbs this morning: saturday." coming up this hour, a slow march through the streets has turned into a run for elective office. we'll look at the record number of women looking to get on the ballot in november, how it could transform politics. plus this year's intense flu outbreak can't, still claiming lives and sending thousands to the hospital. we'll hear where the epidemic stands right now. and the grammys may be music's biggest night, but what comes the night before is a close second. we'll go behind the scenes of tonight's star-studded pre-grammy gala thrown by clive davis. but we begin this half hour remembering one of the darkest parts of world war ii. secretary of state rex tillerson paid respects to the victims of the holocaust this morning during his visit to poland. tillerson laid a wreath at the warsaw ghetto uprising monument and said we must never forget. it's been 73 years since the liberation of some 7,000 jewish prisoners from ought it was. some european families took the brave step of taking in jews and hiding them from the nazis. several generations later, relatives are still expressing their gratitude. seth doane has one family's story. >> reporter: this simple meeting in a naples synagogue was more than 70 years in the making. >> i can see tears in your eyes. >> i can't help it. every time i talk about this, i break down. >> reporter: tony's father helped save ester sinigallia's grandfather. they were among tens of thousands of jews hiding from nazi soldiers in italy. durso was just w5 years old but was posted at the lookout. his father giuseppe hid about a dozen people from two jewish families, putting them at grit rsk. >> he didn't do it out of ideology. he was illiterate. he mustn't have gone to a year, year and a half to school, he did it because he thought a human being in distress needs help. >> reporter: dur sew emigrated to the u.s. and became a state legislator in new york. he wanted his father to get recognition but didn't have proof of what had happened until about six months ago when a jewish friend discovered a diary that had mentioned dur sew's dad. >> the terror of being singled out for being jews, she said. we were moved from one place to next, she said, one mountain to the next. >> thank god for sane people that thought that that's the only thing to do, to save the poor souls for not any fault of their own just because they happened to be of a jewish religion, they were condemned to die and someone helped them to survive. that's all. >> reporter: 6 million jews were killed during world war the, but as these extended families gathered, they were thankful it wasn't 12 more. for "cbs this morning," seth doane, naples, italy. >> what a remarkable story. >> hair row richarrowing. it's part of the ocean floor of the ocean that humans have never seen. scientists say the area should be given special protection in a proposet sanctuary of more than a million square miles. but first here's a look at the weather for your weekend. a widespread and deadly flu season continues. up next on our "morning rounds" medical news, dr. david agus has the latest numbers on the scale and direction of the epidemic and advice on how to stay healthy. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday." >> announcer: this portion sponsored by nicorette mini lozenge. . that was it for me. that's why i'm quitting with nicorette. only nicorette mini has a patented fast dissolving formula. it starts to relieve sudden cravings fast. every great why needs a great how. every great why i just want to find a used car without getting ripped off. you could start your search at the all-new carfax.com that might help. show me the carfax. now the car you want and the history you need are easy to find. show me used trucks with one owner. pretty cool.

>> no. get it, get it, get it. even if it doesn't hit the strain that's around, you're going to get less severity to the flu. get it if you haven't. >> older children are more susceptible, but it's surprising that baby boomers have been especially hard hit. why? >> this year is a little bit different. there certainly is a bigger incidence in the baby boomers. they're the ones out there working every day and many of them have less vaccination rates. in addition, there's a particular strain this year that when you're a child, you may have less immunity. everybody needs to get the flu shot. i can't say it enough. >> all right. we have our marching orders. we transition to our next topic, health issues on a global scale. the world economic forum in davos, switzerland, just wrapped up. experts and world leaders discussed a variety of issues including health and medicine. >> dr. agus was one of the attendees and can tell us about some of the health-related matters discussed in davos. how does value affect health? >> what you get is what you pay. we're developing a system where we incentivize people for value rather than incentivize people for doing procedures. the future it's going to be, it's based on the outcome and i think that's an important move. the key in davos we all talked about is how do you define value. >> one was inequality especially when it comes to things like human enhancement drugs and bioengineering. to quote a section of that write-up, if the price tag is significant and the benefits are strong, the results would be even deeper and more entrenched in equality. >> no question. we're talking about electronic autonomous cars. nay be burning cars one day if we don't address this erb. we're going to have drugs in the near future that may make you smarter, stronger, and if only the rich can afford them, it's going to increase this divide we have now. we have to find a way for equity. it's a major issue today, it's going to be more of a major issue tomorrow. >> that's a dystopian future right there. >> no question about it. >> speaking of which, antibiotic resistance is another issue that was talked about. what can you tell us about the latest on that. >> you know, we see in this flu season, we have anti-virals. in the first 48 hours you take this and the severity goes down. as we take more and more anti-virals, antibiotics, drug resistance is a major problem, so we have to figure out ways to use them appropriately and then incentivize research to make new drugs. if you have drugs that work, the problem is we save it till the end. what company wants to make a drug where only a few people will use it? we have to change the system there. >> what were some of your takeaways? >> in general there's optimism. there's optimism that vaccines are working in africa, there's optimism we have new treatments for cancer and alzheimer's. one of the big discussions that we sat on the stage and talked about is health care right i think what came down at the end it's a right, but it's also a responsibility and i think defining both of those is going to be critical as we move forward. so it was a privilege to be there but the discussions really hopefully push the march forward. >> do you think the discussions translate into action in the long term, medium term, short term? >> no question about it. the power of davos is who's in the room as you head to health ministers. when you say something in the hallways afterward, you talk about it and action happens. it's an amazing place in that regard. >> not a bad alpine setting. >> no question about it. it snowed a little bit. >> a little cold and remote. >> lucky you. from protesting in the streets to putting their names on election-day ballots, the number of women expected to run for office this year is blowing away previous records. we'll look at what it could mean for the nation. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday."

>> it's up 350%. in an ordinary -- actually the last two-year period from 2015 to 2016, emily's list saw about 900 women reach out running for office. in the last one year, they've heard from almost 30,000, which is a huge jump. >> let's talk about the catalysts that have driven women to do this. you liken it to citizens enlisting in a sudden war. what's taking these women out of their sort of like happy professional personal lives and into the political arena. >> yeah. what's interesting is i think trump caused these women to mar march, but it's their republican members of congress who are kind of providing the incentive for them to run. most of the women i spoke to said they were absolutely enraged not only just by the actions of the trump administration but by their republican representatives who were trying to take away their health care. that was the number one issue women cited their reason for running, not only trying to take aware their health care but cancel town halls, refusing to meet with constituents and not kind of stepping up and listening to the people they were supposed to represent. a lot of women said, you know what? i can do a better job than that guy. >> it's interesting. when the march happened, and we were talking about this in the break, a lot of people thought, this is an impressive turnout, but what's going to happen next. something did happen. >> absolutely. i mean there was a ton of skepticism after the march last year. it was interesting to me because it was the largest single-day demonstration in american history and it was almost -- it was led entirely by women and it was mostly women who were marching, and yet there was a lot of, hmm, what are they really going to do about it. one thing that i thought was interesting about this year's m.a.s.h. is that every single person i spoke to, i covered the march last weekend, said that they had been -- if they weren't running, they were organizing. if they weren't organizing, they were donating. if they weren't donating, they were voting and encouraging everybody around them to vote. >> one of the things we talk about when we have previously looked at the dearth of women candidates is women feel like they need to be qualified. they need to check all the boxes before they run. the same feeling is not true for men. this year that seems to have changed in large part because of hillary clinton and donald trump. >> absolutely. this is a total paradigm shift in the way women think about their own qualifications for running for office. i think like you said, there are all these studies that show that men will go for a job when they meet 60% of the qualifications, most of the qualifications. women feel like they can only put themselves forward if they check all the boxes. i think what we saw in the last 2016 election, you saw women who many perceived as being extremely qualified. certainly the only woman to ever come close to the presidency. running against a man who had never held public office, had never served in any government role, and it made a lot of women think to themselves -- and then she lost. so it made them think to themselves, if hillary clinton was the most qualify woman to ever run for president and she lost to somebody like donald trump, maybe all those qualifications aren't zwaully that important. >> very interesting. there are 2 women in the senate up for your re-election. 11 are democrats. are republicans answering with female candidates? >> absolutely. this is a really tough map for democrats in 2018. most of the energy is certainly on the democratic side, but there absolutely are a lot of women republicans running. it's not as if this is a -- this is all on the democrat side. there are certainly a lot of republican women. especially women who are going to be challenging democratic incumbents, but the surge of energy, the surge of women who are like putting themselves forward who would have never, ever considered it before is largely on the progressive side. >> women make up half the country. only a fifth of congress and 12% of the governor's seats, so perhaps a rebalancing of the scales is overdue. charlotte alter from "time," thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. up next, a part of our planet never befofefore seen by humans and why the international group that found it is calling on the world to protect it. you're watching "cbs this morning: saturday." crohn's disease. you're more than just a bathroom disease. you're a life of unpredictable symptoms. crohn's, you've tried to own us. but now it's our turn to take control with stelara® stelara® works differently for adults with moderately to severely active crohn's disease. studies showed relief and remission, with dosing every 8 weeks. stelara® may lower the ability of your immune system to fight infections and may increase your risk of infections and cancer. some serious infections require hospitalization. before treatment, get tested for tuberculosis. before or during treatment, always tell your doctor if you think you have an infection or have flu-like symptoms or sores, have had cancer, or develop any new skin growths, or if anyone in your house needs or recently had a vaccine. alert your doctor of new or worsening problems, including headaches, seizures, confusion, and vision problems. these may be signs of a rare, potentially fatal brain condition. some serious allergic reactions can occur. do not take stelara® if you are allergic to any of its ingredients. we're fed up with your unpredictability. remission can start with stelara®. talk to your doctor today. janssen wants to help you explore cost support options for stelara®. the bathroom. when things go wrong here, you remember. quilted northern is designed to work so well, you can forget your bathroom trips. but daddy gator can never forget.

"the new york times" fake stories. >> "the new york times" reported the president backed off on his desire to fire mueller but only after white house counsel don mcgahn threatened to quit. on tuesday night president trump delivers his first state of the union address. it comes amid an increasingly bitter fight over immigration reform. the mueller probe and the majority of the american public holdlding an unfavorable view o his presidency. >> for a preview of what we might hear, we are joined by michael waldman, the president of the brennan center for justice at nyu and the former director of speech writing for president bill clinton. he wrote or edited four state of the union addressed. good morning, michael. those addresses are long. writing and editing them are no small feat. for a president that is notorious and favors braggadocios and bluter, what do you think the tone is on tuesday night. >> there is a tone that president's generally str-- try strive for in a state of the union. they want a moment to command the full power and majesty as it were of the office. and majesty of the office is not a phrase one typically associated with donald trump. if you think about it, what is complicated with him is we as listeners and voters, know that sometimes he can read a speech from a teleprompter and last year he gave an address to congress and it was kind of boring and people -- people sort of breathed a sigh of relief. but teleprompter trump is different from twitter trump who sounds not like a regular old president but someone calling into a talk radio show. and he often will undermine a big speech within days by doing something. >> which he did last year. >> two or three days after that speech that -- he received pretty good marks from people, he, at 7:00 in the morning on a saturday, which is an early time on a saturday -- >> not for us. >> i know. but he tweeted out that president obama had his phones tapped and we were off to the races again. so i would expect him to have a sober speech, but with a question mark of how seriously he takes it or how long it will last. >> as we mentioned, you wrote many of bill clinton's state of the union and including those with a cloud of impeachment hanging over him and we have the mueller investigation hanging over the president. how do you handle that if you are a speech writer. >> different presidents at different times have addressed scandals or crises different ways. nixon talked about watergate and said one year of water gate is enough. in bill clinton's case, he wanted to talk about the issues as he saw them though it was the day before the state of the unop in 1998 that he issued his famous or infamous denial about monica lewinsky. i can't imagine president trump will talk about this. i really wish that he would talk about russia and foreign interference in our elections and the need to protect our democracy in 2018. that is how i think a president ought to talk about this. as we know, he tends to talk about it as fake news and that sort of stuff rather than -- >> addressing the problem. >> addressing it that way. >> the one thing that the president is likely to address is immigration. we are in the middle of a big fight over the fate of the d.r.e.a.m.ers. steven miller is going to be the speech writer on tap for the state of union. he is notoriously conservative when it comes to immigration. does that translate to president trump's rhetoric on the subject. >> it may well. the state of the union address last year, the address to congress evidently had the hand of gary cohn, the economic adviser from goldman sachs and the inaugural address talk was about steven miller and miller is the sharply focused on restricting not only illegal immigration but legal immigration in the whole federal government. and it is an interesting moment because it isn't always the speeches happen at an interesting time but there is a big tense negotiation happening sort of in public over immigration. and the white house is putting out its proposal, which we assume the president will talk about which is to legalize up to 1.8 million d.r.e.a.m.ers, undocumented -- >> children brought here without any -- >> right. and also demanding $25 billion for the wall that mexico was supposed to pay for. it is like he could be -- he could be reading a hostage note on
