were russian spies trying to recruit him to work for them. brian ross finds him today. and, two separate manhunts. the officer killed showing up to work. and in atlanta, the female lawyer targeted and killed during rush hour. new reporting tonight. good evening. it's great to have you with us on a tuesday night. we're going to begin tonight with the images that have stunned the world. it's hard to imagine that after six years of war in syria, there could be something even worse than what many have already seen. tonight, our team has taken great care to pour through the images, but we warn you, they're still difficult to see. a chemical attack, war planes dropping what appears to be a toxic gas. the white house responding. here's jonathan karl. >> reporter: tonight, outrage over these scenes of horror and suffering in syria. an apparent war crime, a suspected sarin gas attack by the government killing dozens and sickening many more, young children among the victims. rescue workers desperately work to wash the chemical from the victims. children clinging to life, struggling to breathe. >> the gas attacks are continuing every day and nobody is doing anything to stop this gas attack. >> reporter: this attack following two chlorine attacks over the past week. while this local activist reported from one of those hospitals, it was it with another airstrike. the white house called the "reprehensible" and said it "cannot be ignored by the civilized world." but the statement also took aim at president obama. "these heinous actions by the bashar al-assad regime are a consequence of the past administration's weakness and irresolution." that's a reference to president obama's failure to punish syria for crossing the so-called red line when it used chemical weapons in 2013. president obama in fact boasted that he had worked out an agreement with russia and syria to get rid of assad's chemical weapons. >> assad gave up his chemical weapons. that's not speculation on our part. >> reporter: tragically, that was not true. at least some weapons remained. the big question right now is whether president trump will hold assad accountable for using chemical weapons. he didn't talk about it today but he did say this in a speech on the economy. >> i'm not, and i don't want to be, the president of the world. i'm the president of the united states, and from now on, it's going to be america first. >> reporter: secretary of state rex tillerson ignored questions on the attack. >> mr. secretary, any comment on the chemical attack in syria? >> bashar al assad should still be president of syria? >> reporter: but just last week tillerson signaled a significant change in longtime u.s. policy that bashar al-assad must go. >> i think the status in the longer term status of president assad will be decided by the syrian people. >> reporter: tonight, these syrian people aren't determining the status of assad, they are trying to survive his brutality. >> and jon with us live tonight from the white house. secretary tillerson did not take questions on this today, but he appears to have taken to harsher line? >> reporter: yes, in a statement, condemning his ba barbarism. and called out russia and iran, saying they bear great responsibility for the attacks. but it's unclear what the trump administration will do about this. >> thank you. we turn to the other major headline involving the white house, after president trump's claim that president obama wiretapped trump tower. did susan rice request that members of the trump team were unmasked ? here's cecilia vega. >> reporter: it was exactly one month ago that president trump accused president obama of wiretapping him in trump tower. and tonight, the president's conservative allies say obama's former national security adviser susan rice revealed the identities of trump associates swept up in foreign surveillance. from rice today, a firm denial. >> this is not anything political has been alleged. the allegation is that somehow obama administration officials utilized intelligence for political purposes. that is absolutely false. >> reporter: sources tell abc news that as the intelligence community investigated russia's election meddling, in some cases, trump campaign and transition officials were picked up in surveillance. rice requesting their identities. today rice said she did indeed ask to know names. a request known as unmasking, done in cases where u.s. security is at risk. american identities that would otherwise be anonymous are revealed to those with security clearance, like rice. >> in order to understand the importance of the report, and assess its significance, it was necessary to find out, or request the information as to who that u.s. official was. >> reporter: rice wouldn't say whether any of those names were trump associates and she vehemently denied that she leaked any names. >> i leaked nothing to nobody and never have and never would. >> reporter: and says the unmasking was a key part of her job. >> we can't be passive consumers of this information and not -- and do our jobs effectively to protect the american people. imagine if we saw something of grave significance that involved russia, or china, or anyone else, interfering in our political process and we needed to understand the significance of that. for us not to try to understand it would be dereliction of duty. >> reporter: republicans, not buying it. senator rand paul tweeting, "smoking gun found." saying -- >> so now we know that someone in the obama administration was eavesdropping and specifically searching a databank looking for the trump people. >> no. no. >> that's a big deal. >> reporter: rice maintains there was nothing illegal, no smoking gun, and no wiretapping of trump tower. >> there was no such collection or surveillance on trump tower or trump individuals and it is very important to understand, and by that i mean directed by the white house or targeted by trump individuals. >> let's gets to cecilia vega, and some republicans are calling for rice to testify. where does the white house stand? >> reporter: they're not weighing in on this one just yet. they do call the reports about unmasking troubling, but the calls growing louder. they just sent a letter demanding that rice be called upon to testify. >> thank you. we turn now to an abc news investigation, and it involves former trump campaign adviser carter page. did the russians try to get him to work for them? brian ross tracked him down today. >> reporter: two years before this new york businessman, carter page, became a foreign policy adviser to candidate donald trump, russian spies tried to recruit him as an intelligence source. fbi documents show they offered page, identified as male number 1, "favors" and "business opportunities" in russia in exchange for information. "he flies to moscow more often than i do," one russian spy told another about page. "it's obvious that he wants to earn lots of money." "you promise a favor for a favor." the spies, posing as russian trade officials, said page provided them with documents on the u.s. economy. today page told abc news that any documents he passed to the russians were of little consequence. >> any information i could give is, is, again, immaterial. and all public information. >> reporter: did you feel like you were working for them as an intelligence source? >> of course not, of course not. it's ridiculous. >> reporter: what's ridiculous about it? >> everything. making it up again. nothing. good to see you. >> reporter: russia's interest in page continued during the campaign. last july, the little-known businessman was invited to deliver a prestigious speech at a moscow university where he denounced the obama administration. but page has said allegations he served as a go-between for the kremlin and the trump campaign or met with senior russian officials are false. >> completely made up and -- >> reporter: never happened? >> absolutely never happened. yeah. >> reporter: but since that interview, page has acknowledged he did meet with the russian ambassador at the republican convention in cleveland. white house aides say page was never a major player in the company. and the russian spies are now back in moscow. >> brian, during the company, american intelligence officials became concerned that page was advising donald trump? >> that's right, when he showed up in moscow to give the speech last july, it only added to concerns about the possible russian connection. >> thank you. meantime on capitol hill, the new effort to repeal and replace obamacare, take two. intense meetings taking place with some conservative republicans. but would pre-existing condition coverage be going away? here's mary bruce. >> reporter: on capitol hill today, vice president mike pence stepping in to bring healthcare reform back from the dead. is healthcare going to get done this week? what makes this time any different? the white house is now trying to strike a deal with the freedom caucus, those ultra-conservative members who killed the first bill. president trump attacking them ever since. but now, eager for a win, the white house seems to be putting on the table something the president vowed not to touch. >> when you replace it, are you going to make sure that people with preconditions are still covered? >> yes. because it happens to be one of the strongest assets. >> reporter: today, the white house is considering effectively doing away with that provision. people with pre-existing conditions could see their healthcare costs skyrocket. also on the chopping block, the requirement that insurance companies cover essential benefits like wellness visits, mental health treatment, maternity care and even ambulances. now, individual states could opt out. is healthcare reform back on? >> yes, it is. >> reporter: republicans know the clock is ticking. with members about to head home for two weeks, they could be facing more of this. >> if you yell one more time like that, i'm going to ask you -- [ booing ] >> reporter: still, tonight, no legislation and no agreement. >> it's premature to say where we are or what we're on, because we're at that conceptual stage right now. >> ma pri, are moderate republicans going to be onboard? >> reporter: any concessions to conservatives risk alienating the moderates. also this evening, ivanka trump taking on an official role at the white house. as an assistant to the president. in an interview, asked whether she's complicit with his polici policies, here's what she said. >> if being complicit is wanting to, is wanting to be a force for good, and to make a positive impact, then i'm complicit. >> ivanka trump with cbs. next tonight, extreme weather on the way for much of the east. 54 million americans in the path of severe storms. this tornado whipping up 100 miles an hour, ripping off the side of a virginia beach home. afterwards, the owner on the left opening the door, creeping toward where there used to be a wall. and rob marciano, this is going to be all the way up the coast. >> reporter: and several days of it. a snowstorm in and severe weather reports. and it's going to expand, by tomorrow, across alabama, mississippi, the southeast. and another round of severe weather late tomorrow. the bull's eye will be in georgia and alabama, and all the way up into ohio. tomorrow will be a very, very active day. >> rob, thank you. there is a massive manhunt in texas for the killer of a law enforcement officer. officials say this black suv pulled up, and opened fire on an officer. and clint greenwood told co-workers he felt threatened by someone last week. the reward stands at 6$5,000. and new developments in the killing of a lawyer

trouble for fox news. a new lawsuit this time claiming racial discrimination. a growing number of advertisers fleeing bill o'reilly's show. here's linsey davis. >> reporter: a burgeoning boycott of fox news tonight as more than ten companies plan to pull ads from the network's top-rated show, "the o'reilly factor," in the wake of reports bill o'reilly and fox news paid five women a total of almost $13 million in settlements dating back 15 years. among the advertisers, mercedes-benz, who say "the o'reilly factor" is not "a good environment in which to advertise our products right now." just yesterday, radio host dr. wendy walsh, said she too was sexually harassed by o'reilly. >> he told me i was a beautiful woman. he asked me to go to his hotel room. and then he became hostile to me when i said no and i was soon after discontinued from his show. >> reporter: walsh says she is not asking for money. but money is what o'reilly says is what makes him a target. in a statement posted on his website over the weekend, o'reilly says he has put to rest any controversies to spare his children. tonight, fox news is responding, saying he value our partners, and are working with them to address their current concerns about the o'reilly factor. >> thank you. when we come back, the lawyer targeted and killed during rush hour. you'll see the suspect on surveillance. and the small plane
