>> corker of tennessee already voted against the version, so he's probably where he's going to be. marco rubio is a little bit -- he's getting a little bit of negotiation out of this. i'm surprised more senators don't do this. yo get a lot of gift baskets when you're the person. what they're in the sense doing is focusing on the last mile of legislation on this notion that basically a lot of the benefits of this tax package either goes to the wealthy or the corporations. why not a little bit for the working poor? it kind of crystallizes at the last moment here an argument democrats have been making about the bill. >> when it actually comes to the bill, what do you think they'll do? >> i don't predict, gayle, especially in this political climate but there's timing as nancy suggest, which means i think we'll have a little burst of excitement at the end. >> and the president is putting a lot of pressure on them too. >> he sure is. we'll see if he's a salesman. this weekend on "face the nation" john will speak with senator james lankford. >> last week the president said the bureau's reputation is quote, in tatters over its handling of recent investigations. julianna goldman is at the white house. julianna, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. with most presidents speaking to the fbi would be par for the course. this is actually president trump's first visit to the fbi. his last visit was canceled after he fired former fbi director james comey who was very popular at the bureau. he called comey a liar and a leaker. today's circumstances perhaps just as fraught considering the ongoing investigation that's reached top white house aides and remember president trump said the fbi's reputation was the worst in history. this is after they found text mojs disparaging candidate trump from a cia agent. it was said there is no finer institution, so, bianna we will have to see whether president trump echoes those sentiments later today during his speech. >> julianna thank you. president trump meantime called russia's president yesterday to say thank you. they spoke after vladimir putin's year-end session with the reporters where the white house said he acknowledged america's strong economic performance. elizabeth palmer attended the conference. she's outside the kremlin in mom cow with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. not only did he mention the financial markets, he gave credit to president trump. president putin had nothing good to say about america, but he did praise donald trump. he dismissed the russian allegations of meddling in the american election as just the work of people opposed to donald trump who wanted to undermine his legitimacy which is by the way, exactly the explanation used by the up with president trump andriticizing america is a very good way for president putin who still sees the u.s. as an enemy of exacerbating the turmoil and divide in american politics. gayle? >> elizabeth palmer reporting from moscow. thank you. bianna? states are considering lawsuits after the fcc ruled on net neutrality. the new those renovations were blocking innovation. the appeal could content providers like google facebook twitter, and netflix. they say the fight i commission moved forward i aotesters and lawmakers gathered threatened to overthrow the ruling. >> we are out here in the cold to turn the heat up on the federal communications commission! >> it is time for us to restore internet freedom. >> reporter: the chairman a. >> we should have a level playing field. >> those against the measure say they will charge consumers for high-speed internet and those who can't afford it will be left with poor connection. on wednesday critics of chairman pai launched attacks. he appeared in this video which many saw as moxing their concerns. >> he doesn't seem to care. he has refused to cooperate. he sort of laughed that off. >> new york attorney general eric schneiderman said he'll sue the fcc claiming the÷i process of voting was not sound because it was wrought with millions of fake comments. not what the american people deserve and this is not something the courts are going to put up with. >> reporter: and they refused to listen to public attention. this appeal won't go into effect for a few months, so consumers won't be seeing the changes today. the fcc is trying to ease some concerns saying if they do raise your rates, they have to disclose that. of course, they can do it in the fine print that nobody actually reads. >> nobody reads fine print or very few do. >> we should start. >> you're right. the new york police department is investigating sexualó1 allegations against music mogul russell simmons. one woman said he held her down while she kicked and screamed. a spokesman said quote, russell will fully support and will continue with the police inquiry. he denies the accusations.

>> i figured one time that might end cause. >> reporter: child protective services says for eight years bowen wright put her son through medical tests and surgeries. but they began to suspect christopher wasn't really sick last month. they called cps. an affidavit believe bowen wright may suffer from a mental illness where a caregiver fakes or creates symptoms for sympathy or attention. >> those are certainly elements of cases. >> these investigations are very rare. they don't come up very often. >> the 8-year-old and siblings are in foster care. his son now appears to be healthy. >> i'm so sorry that i wasn't able to be there to stop the harm that's been done unto you. >> we have reached out but haven't heard back. we heard they do go doctor shopping so they can avoid being caugh. as for ryan, he'll be in court next week hoping to get custody >> omar thanks. nasa is cel groundbreaking artificial intelligence helped to discover a new planet. they used advance learning technology by google to find this thousands of years away called kepler 90-i. good morning. morning. nasa researchers have known about this faraway solar system for some time, but it's the discovery of how it was made that has the scientific community very optimistic. in the never-ending search for life beyond planet earth, nasa scientists have uncovered the only other eight planets they know of that circles the sun. with help from google and their software scientists analyze thousands of data points from this nasa planting space telescope on kepler. >> having all this information coming from kepler for scientists is like trying to drink from a fire hose. >> reporter: astronomer derrick pitts. >> the google system has been able to search through that pile of information much faster than ns have been able to dig through it. if you think about the of the number of stars in the galaxy to the number sands o it's as i we've been asked to search all the grains on the earth and search for the red ones. >> reporter: unlike earth -- >> the temperature on the surface of this planet is about 800 degrees fahrenheit which is far too hor the possidevelopment of life as we know it. it's about 25 hundred light years away. that means even >> yeah. current rocketou knowt direction. take us millions of years just reach kepler 90-i. the new planet orbits the star what about you?

>> he says he's not going anywhere any time soon but like any leader he will probably take stock after the 2018 midterm elections, if his party is still in control of the house, what is his relationship like with the very conservative freedom caucus. he sometimes tangles with those members. what is his relationship like with president trump? right now it's pretty good. in fact the president told ryan yesterday that if these reports are true he'll be very unhappy, but we're told that ryan assured the president that he isn't going anywhere. >> and if he's unhappy, would you know it if president trump was unhappy? would you know? >> we might get a tweet or two. >> if you're unhappy and you know it, go to twitter. nancy, thanks. bob woodward associate editor of the "washington post" joins us. he and lenny bernstein led the watergate scandal. that's woodward on the right in this photo. bob, good morning. >> good morning. >> when you look at this last-minute negotiation over the tax bill does it look familiar to legislation you receive before? the last-minute negotiation? >> well this is exactly the way not to do tax reform. i remember in the '70s when i started reporting, lawyers said the tax code was about that big on the shelf. it's now this big. you can't go at it in this way. it would make so much sense for everyone to just say let's wait till after christmas. let's let people see what this is. it's an important issue. it affects everyone. but, you know we're in the era of impatience and speed and political promises so it looks like something might happen. we'll see. >> well, you know talk about waiting till after christmas, bob, the democrats are saying they want to delay the vote until after senator doug jones -- senator-elect doug jones is seated in january. do you see any chance of that happening? >> that's unlikely. there's a momentum to this. president trump has made it very clear he doesn't want to end the year without some success, some accomplishment, but let's -- you know, this is -- if you go back to the beginning of the obama presidency when they rammed through obamacare and really have been paying for it since because i remember talking last year with trump about this when he was a candidate that all successful politics is coalition building. you've got to include some on the other side. and trump said oh absolutely. i know that. but we're not seeing it practiced by both sides. too bad. >> bob, let me move on to the russian investigation especially about trump's advisers having to tiptoe around the russia issue any time it comes up. there are some who think he's trying to discredit bob mueller and some are trying to discredit bob mueller in the hopes of one day firing him. what is the likelihood of that happening? >> the future is veiled on this. obviously there's tension. if trump is correct he thinks there's no collusion and nothing here he should welcome a full investigation. that "post" story shows he does not agree with the overwhelming conclusion of the intelligence community. so, again, this is something we're going to have to wait and see about. but, you know that is not the emotional culture we're living in, wait and see. it's let's do it let's have a fight. let's have a political skirmish. >> bob, you have covered a lot of national security systems within different administrations. you know about the coordination that's required the dance steps that are required to make good policy. with that knowledge, assess that reporting about what is done in the national security apparatus around the president with respect to russia and what that means for just making good decisions. >> well, you know, that's kind of a side issue. i'm doing a book on trump for next year and trying to look at the big picture and some of the components. the good news is in the first year of the trump administration, we have not had a major escalation of a war or a new war. and as you get into the weeds on this where i have some time to do that there is a rather long and serious debate on lots of these issues like the middle east, how to deal with china, north korea. so it's not all bad news. but this tension on russia needs to be settled. >> all right. bob woodward, thanks. sunday on "face the nation," we'll talk with senators james lankford and bernie sand ders. we'll see you sunday. >> you've got long week john. the man never takes a break. well 2018 could be a year of big health breakthroughs from editing dna to cures diseases with vaccines. dr. david agus who also doesn't take a break is in the green ro the global cost of cyber crimes could reportedly hit $6 billion. ahead, one of the world's top cyber companies will show us the biggest threats in 2018 and how to fight back. you're watching "cbs this morning." it's almost christmas, and toys"r"us has the hottest toys and awesome deals. like buy one get one 40% off all star wars action figures role play and plush. and buy one get one 50% off all disney princess dolls, playsets and more. something for everyone now through saturday. toys"r"us. today we play. i can do more to lower my a1c. and i can do it with what's already within me. because my body can still make its own insulin. and once-weekly trulicity activates my body to release it. trulicity is not insulin. it comes in a once-weekly, truly easy-to-use pen. it works 24/7, and you don't have to see or handle a needle. trulicity is a once-weekly injectable medicine to improve blood sugar in adults with type 2 diabetes when used with diet and exercise. it should not be the first medicine to treat diabetes or for people with type 1 diabetes or diabetic ketoacidosis. do not take trulicity if you have a personal or family history of medullary thyroid cancer if you have multiple endocrine neoplasia syndrome type 2, or if you're allergic to trulicity. stop trulicity and call your doctor right away if you have a lump or swelling in your neck, severe stomach pain, or symptoms like itching rash, or trouble breathing. serious side effects may include pancreatitis. taking trulicity with a sulfonylurea or insulin increases your risk for low blood sugar. common side effects include nausea, diarrhea, vomiting decreased appetite and indigestion. some side effects can lead to dehydration, which may worsen kidney problems. i choose once-weekly trulicity to activate my within. if you need help lowering your a1c and blood sugar activate your within. ask your doctor about once-weekly trulicity. very good song. do you want to destroy my sweater. >> the new year will likely bring crucial developments in the fight for better health. in 2017 we've seen headlines for new goals for blood pressure and child hood leukemia and gene edits and how pigs can become new organ donors. we could see better flu vaccines to fight the flu. dr. david agus is here. all the time we hear it's not good. what do you say? >> it wasn't good in australia. even if it doesn't prevent the flu, it will tamp it down. >> you're talking about better vaccines in 2018. we always like to get a good shot. what are you bringing to the table? >> there are two major advances in the vaccine. there's one i had this week which is a shingles vaccine. a third of us are going to get shingles. it's a reactivation of chicken pox. >> i don't know what it is. >> it's a reactivation of chicken pox. >> it comes on hard. >> it comes on hard. hits a third of us. 200,000 cases a year. the old vaccine is okay but this is recommended for everybody 50 and older. it's a pain in my arm but it's going to prevent me from getting it in the future. this notion of going in once a year and getting a shot for the flu hopefully is the old. hopefully we can target the inside which is more stable. those are in clinical trials and very exciting. >> the universal is you do it once? >> a booster a decade down the road but it won't be a yearly shot. >> we've been hearing the promise of gene therapy for many years. is 2018 the year where it's going to come into fruition? >> it's wild. we have this gene crispr. now we're going to see across-the-board diseases edited with this dna. a spell checker. imagine in the future a child not being born again with a genetic disease. >> but as we know from spell-checker, sometimes auto correct can say something you don't mean. with crispr who is monitoring how they -- so they don't go too far in editing jeans. >> do you want to talk about something that happened with auto corrector? you really hit an important part. i'm not sure who regulates this. if we regulate it here, somebody's going to go to canada to get it done. we need real leadership here. what if someone wants to make their child bigger or smarter or blonder or whatever they want to do. they conceivably can do. this is an area like spider-man says, with great power comes great responsibility. >> a lot of ethical questions surely. what are your biggest concerns? >> that's it. that's the biggest concern. who's in charge. you need leadership. and right now in the health space, which is almost a third of our economy we don't have real leadership. we did -- mayor bloomberg was a great health leader for the city of new york. we haven't had a great one yet. >> i almost didn't recognize you. you didn't have on your traditional black sweater. i heard people fell down on the dance floor when you walked in the door not wearing black. >> this was new four years ago and it makes me a little uncomfortable that i'm doing it. >> does it make you uncomfortable? >> yes, yes. >> he's a new man with the shingles vaccine. >> i'm going to get you a green sweater, purple. >> dr. david agus thanks. >> yellow. lock your computer and demand money. ahead, the digital threats you should watch out for in 2018. you're watching "cbs this morning." hen people take action ag ♪ new york new york it's a helluva town ♪ >> cut, cut, cut, cut. ♪ fame i'm going to live forever i'm going to learn how to fly ♪ ♪ fame i'm going to make it forever ♪ >> that is hilarious. james corden played his crosswalk music. hugh jackman and zac efron performed, too, on "guys and dolls" trying not to block traffic in new york city. you know what's good about that?

>> any time you have a piece of internet-enabled consumer electronics electronics, that means it wants to get on your wi-fi and talk to your iphone android, you can control it there. it can be a toy, a camera a doorbell. these things have all got computers in them and they can have vulnerabilities. over time criminals can understand what the vulnerabilities are and they can put them in your home consumer electronics. the internet had a problem last year that stopped a bunch of services like netflix. it was executed by consumer electronics that had that software in it. >> what should you do?
