jeff. >> glor: jeff pegues, thanks very much. we want to talk more about this potential second summit now. our chief white house correspondent major garrett is at the white house. major, what do we know? >> reporter: that there is an effort under way to have vladimir putin come here in september or october. and that vastly complicates what the administration has been trying to accomplish since it got back from helsinki, which is to say, the president has a strong attitude about russian meddling in the 2016 election and ongoing efforts to infiltrate the 2018 midterms. think about this, jeff, putin's arrival here in washington, if it comes about, would happen right in the teeth of that midterm election. so whatever the white house says about its upset or disagreement with that infiltration mechanisms undertaken by the russians will certainly be complicated by the fanfare of a summit here between president trump and president putin. >> glor: all right, major, so also, the white house had to walk back another statement from the presi

>> jeff, a little trouble with jeff. you were talking about what we can expect here tomorrow at this summit. >> reporter: yeah. the point of the meeting is to determine whether russia is serious about hitting the diplomatic reset button to determine if putin is willing to have a better relationship with the u.s. that aside, setting aside that official line, the two do have a lot to talk about starting with syria. the president is reportedly eying a deal with putin that would move iranian troops away from the syrian border in exchange for withdrawal of u.s. troops from the region. we know the president spoke with the israeli primae minister today. it's safe to assume the israeli security interests will figure into this meeting. we heard the president's press conference yesterday saying the u.s. could have a good relationship with russia even if russia stays in crimea. of course, the issue of russian election interference rocketed to the top of the agenda given this latest string of indictments from the justice department

but it's closed now, jeff. and it won't reopen again until sunday at the earliest. >>> the "cbs overnight news" will be right back. stop fearing your alarm clock... with new*! zzzquil pure zzzs. a drug-free blend of botanicals with melatonin ...that supports your natural sleep cycle... ...so you can seize the morning. new! zzzquil pure zzzs. >> announcer: this is the "cbs overnight news." >>> environmentalists are in a race against time to save the rarest of all marine mammals, the vakita is an endangered species of porpoise found only in the gulf of california. there are only a few dozen left. don dahler joined an expedition that's trying to save the species from extinction. >> reporter: as the sun creeps above the horizon, we head out with a disparate group of volunteers, veterinarians, and marine biologists on a difficult, some would say impossible mission, two years in the making. to traction the rarest of marine mammals, the vaquita porpoise. >> this is bigger than vaquitaa. >> conservation in general with

. >> and i've said that before, jeff. i have said that numerous times before. and i would say that that is true, yeah. >> but you haven't condemned putin specifically. do you hold him personally responsible? >> well, i would, because he's in charge of the country, just as i consider myself to be responsible for things that happen in this country. certainly as the leader of a country, you would have to hold him responsible, yes. >> what did you say to him? >> very strong on the fact that we can't have meddling, we can't have any of that. now, look, we're also living in a grown-up world. will a strong statement, you know, president obama supposedly made a strong statement. nobody heard it. what they did hear is the statement he made to putin's very close friend, and that statement was not acceptable. didn't get very much play, relatively speaking, but that statement was not acceptable. but i let him know we can't have this, we're not going to have it, and that's way it's going to be. >> but he denies it. so if you believe u.s. intelligence agencies, is putin lyin

jeff, as you were saying, this is the medium he uses without a filter. this is where you know exactly what the president is thinking and feeling. as the story points out, robert mueller and his team could be using the tweets to try to build a case to see if they can build a case using the tweets, using other information that they've gathered to see if they can make the case that there was any sort of attempt and intention for obstruction of justice. i think the reason that people are so worried, the people close to donald trump, about a potential sit-down and interview with robert mueller is of course because this is the one setting where he cannot have people around him explaining away what he actually meant to say. the interview, whatever he says, sort of goes. this is not a situation where, you know, the spokesperson goes behind the podium and says, well, yes, the president tweeted this, however what his actual intention and meaning was is something else. >> what we don't know is what have the dozens of officials who have been interviewed, including w

jeff, the president was given the tune to condemn russia's action. instead he attacked democrats, journalists and attacked the u.s. intelligence community. >> it was ordinary extra, as you said. he did all of that here in helsinki on foreign soil. perhaps not surprising the president again rejecting you know, the growing rising evidence from the u.s. intelligence community and the department of justice. but even his own advisors and people within his government surprised that he did so on foreign soil and made the focus of this summit so much on election meddling. if he had an unkind harsh word for vladimir putin boy we certainly did not hear it in public either before the meeting or after the meeting in the press conference. jake, this is what he said earlier in the presidential palace as putin watched. >> i have great confidence in my intelligence people. but i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. all i can do is ask the question. my people came to me. dan coats came to me, and some others. they

first, to jeff zeleny. after huge controversies, the president is clearly back in campaign mode. >> reporter: wolf, the president was giving a speech to vfw in kansas city, in the middle of it, it sounded like a campaign style rally, firing up supporters. this is after a week of unusual criticism. he is used to that. today, it was almost all coming from republicans. >> just remember, what you're seeing and what you're reading is not what's happening. >> reporter: at the vfw national convention in kansas city, a defensive president imploring supporters to stand with him, regardless of what they see. >> folks, stick with us. stick with us. >> reporter: it came on another day of white house whiplash, a week after down playing russia's role in attacking american democracy. >> i will tell you that president putin was extremely strong and powerful in his denial today. >> reporter: the president changing course, suddenly saying on twitter i'm very concerned that russia will be fighting very hard to have an impact

i want to go to jeff zeleny. we're watching the presidential motorcade of president trump leaving the presidential palace, which is right behind us, i assume heading home. >> that's right. the president apparently was planning on doing interviews with a couple fox anchors. we believe that's happened, and he's now leaving with his entourage, going back to washington, as people are trying to dissect this. i talked to a u.s. official involved in the planning and said this was not expected. we knew going in he was not going to suddenly change tunes. this was not the plan. the plan, i'm told, was to try and pivot and then move on to bigger issues that he talked about this morning. i think it's interesting. >> it's amazing he's not capable of pivoting. he's not capable of not talking about hillary clinton at this term, on this world stage n t, this moment. >> talking about electoral college votes. that's not what you would expect president trump to say in front of vladimir putin. >> to say the least. what's interesting
