turning its back on compromise. >> plus, the concerns about migrant crime, the nypd busting what it calls the city's largest robbery spree. this woman dragged down the street. britain's king charles is diagnosed with cancer. >> what we know and what we don't know about his condition and the reaction from prince harry that could signal change within the royal family. >> a sign of the times combo meals costing nearly $18. what mcdonald's ceo is saying now about prices. >> super bowl mania kicks off in vegas. the media day event travis kelce in the spotlight, right? the daring question. one reporter asked him about his girlfriend and kelsey's response once and later, the newscaster who decided to wear the same clothes for five straight days. >> did anyone notice? >> from abc news in new york. this is america this morning. good tuesday morning, everyone i'm andrew dymburt. >> i'm andrea fujii in for

rhiannon. >> we begin with the storm being described as a once in a thousand years event. >> more than a foot of rain has fallen in parts of los angeles, triggering mudslides up and down the state. more than 300 in the city of l.a. alone, this storm system tied to the el nino climate pattern has been wreaking havoc, causing more than 1 million power outages and killing at least three people. >> this morning, a massive cleanup effort is set to begin in california after a days long storm packing. historic rainfall triggered mudslides and rare hurricane force winds left a deadly trail of destruction. at least three people in northern california have been killed by falling trees north of santa cruz. this woman, narrowly avoiding disaster. oh, a tree falling onto the roof of her car. the vehicle damaged, but she's okay. farther south, parts of los angeles getting 12in of rain, more than a month's worth in 24 hours. more than a dozen people had to be rescued quick,

look at this. >> los angeles river behind me is still surreal because it's usually dry. and now we've got these ferocious rapids. >> the mudslide is devastating. dozens of buildings damaged or destroyed, cars left buried in thick mounds of muck, entire homes washed away. >> so many slides in the hills around los angeles. but this is by far the worst. this home is being pushed off its property onto this roadway. everything inside exploding out of it and sliding down this hill, including this piano. >> officials calling it one of the wettest storms since record keeping began in the 1870s. president biden called into a news conference with la's mayor. >> we'll give any help on the way as soon as you guys request it. >> through all the devastation, a heartwarming rescue, this man jumping into a rushing river in los angeles to save his dog, firefighters pulling him into a helicopter and later finding his dog downstream. both are now safe. more rain is expected today, but it won't be as heavy. still with the ground so

saturated, officials are warning of more mudslides. we'll check your forecast in a few moments in washington, new signs that a bipartisan deal to address the crisis on the southern border could already be doomed. >> a late night meeting on capitol hill resulted in major new doubts, which could also leave funding for the war in ukraine up in the air. abc's ike ejiochi is here now with all the details. ike. good morning. >> good morning. andrew. you said it yourself that bill to address the crisis at the southern border is apparently doomed. just days after a group of democrats and republicans announced they'd reached a deal this morning, the senate's bipartisan deal to boost border security appears to be going nowhere in a meeting with republicans last night, minority leader mitch mcconnell reportedly recommended voting no on the first procedural vote set for tomorrow, just hours after he advocated for the bill. >> and it's now time for congress to take action on supplemental national security legislation. >> and oklahoma senator james lankford, who helped write the bill, says he's now anticipating the senate vote does not pass.

the bill would add $20 billion to strengthen border security, including hiring new officers and border agents. the conservative border patrol union has endorsed the deal, and the border patrol commissioner says it gives them the strongest set of tools in decades. but amid blowback on capitol hill, senate republicans now want time to change the bill. speaker mike johnson has warned the bill as it stands, is dead on arrival in the house. >> i just don't believe that the senate bill, as i've explained in all of our statements, meets the criteria that's necessary to solve the problem. >> the bill includes a trigger mechanism when migrant apprehensions hit 5000 a day, the border would automatically shut down. but critics are demanding a stricter policy. the growing doubts from senate republicans followed days of pressure from former president trump, saying this just last night, this is a democrat trap. >> it's a trap for republicans. that would be so stupid, so foolish to sign a bill like this. this bill can't be signed. >> meanwhile, lawmakers far away from the border are raising

concerns about migrant crime. the nypd has arrested migrants from venezuela for what it calls the largest robbery spree in the city. thieves snatching purses and phones out of women's hands. this video shows one victim being dragged down the street by thieves on a scooter. investigators say the suspects would hack into victims phones and drain their bank accounts. >> in recent months, a wave of migrant crime has washed over our city. >> the lack of migrant housing also a growing concern. officials in denver now say 800 families will need to be released from migrant shelters in the coming weeks. they say there's no more space or funding, and few resources are available. the senate border deal also set aside money for the war in ukraine, which will be in limbo once again. if this bill fails. andrew ik thank you. >> presidential candidate nikki haley is requesting secret service protection after an increasing number of threats. haley was the target of two recent swatting incidents. she says the phony 911 calls put her

family in danger. homeland security and a panel of congressional leaders will review haley's request. now to concerns about the health of king charles. >> the latest announcement from the palace is raising more questions than answers. this morning, across the pond, the king's cancer shock dominating headlines in britain, doctors diagnosing the 75 year old with cancer. but the palace not saying what kind of cancer or what stage it is actually quite difficult to get a sense of exactly how this is going to pan out for the next few weeks or months, buckingham palace is being very open on the one hand, but very fiercely guarding the king's privacy. >> on the other hand, buckingham palace says charles began regular treatments for cancer yesterday. >> one week after being treated for an enlarged prostate. the palace says doctors found a separate issue during that treatment and further tests identified a form of cancer for the palace, only saying it's not prostate cancer. >> they're saying he's receiving outpatient treatment in london, but they are not giving any details of the kind of treatment he's receiving. >> charles has postponed his

public events, but officials say he'll continue his duties as head of state. prince harry will travel to the u.k. in the coming days to see his father. harry left his official royal duties in 2020, moving to california with his wife meghan markle. >> no parent wants to hear that their child will suffer. >> harry did not spend time with his father or brother prince william during his last visit to the u.k. in september. >> he hasn't been into the u.k. very much since he left, when he has returned for certain things, such as court appearances, he hasn't always seen his family, and we know that those tensions still very much continue. it's clearly motivated, potentially those conversations to start and perhaps those bridges to be built. and i think a lot of people are hoping that is what will happen. >> this morning. the british prime minister said he's thankful the king's cancer was caught early. this is the second recent health scare for the royal family. princess kate is now recovering from abdominal surgery. >> the head of the faa is asking congress not to raise the mandatory retirement age for pilots. lawmakers are considering raising the

retirement age from 65 to 67 to address the ongoing pilot shortage. but the faa wants more time to study the issue. meanwhile the faa administrator, mike whitaker, will be on capitol hill today answering questions about air safety. one month after a door plug blew off a boeing jet in midair. >> time now for your tuesday weather. >> good morning. heavy rain continues across california, especially southern california, where the risk for flooding and mudslides are concerning. you can see a lot of heavy rain still working its way on through southern california. that starts to break up by tuesday afternoon. places like san diego. and it moves on east. the core of this storm system moving over the four corners through wednesday, where it creates high elevation snows. but for southern california, some spots more than a foot of rain from accuweather. i'm meteorologist melissa constanza

>> coming up where the flu is making a comeback. >> also ahead, the lessons learned from the fire disaster on maui that left 97 people dead last summer. what a new report reveals about the police response and the backlash over rising prices at mcdonald's and other fast food chains

i couldn't get my hair done. then psoriatic arthritis. cosentyx works on both for me. people with psoriasis on the scalp have a 4 times higher risk for psoriatic arthritis. serious allergic reactions, severe skin reactions that look like eczema, and an increased risk of infections, some fatal, have occurred. tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms, had a vaccine or plan to, or if ibd symptoms develop or worsen. still workin' for me. ♪see me.♪

thursday night on abc? >> welcome back. >> mcdonald's is now promising to focus on affordability after acknowledging that soaring menu prices are driving away core customers. a big mac combo meal cost nearly $18 at some locations, and a side of hash browns can cost nearly six bucks. mcdonald's ceo says some low income customers have now abandoned the chain altogether, opting instead to eat at home despite promising lower prices. menu prices could soon rise even higher in california, where the minimum wage for fast food workers will soon jump to $20 an

hour. >> now to hawaii, where police have released their first report on the response to the deadly wildfires in maui last august. the worst natural disaster in hawaii's history. the reports findings could be a wake up call for police across the country. abc's alison kosik explains aloha this morning, the first official analysis of how police responded to the wildfire disaster on maui last august. >> now you gotta go paints a picture of chaos as winds from a pacific storm fanned flames across the island. and at least 97 people were killed. thousands of homes were destroyed. >> there's been a lot of, uh, monday morning quarterbacks and a lot of folks that say, coulda, shoulda, woulda. but if you weren't there, then you don't know. and if you think you can do better, mpd is hiring. >> the 98 page report details how police staffing that day was 25% lower than it should have been, and the ranks of police

dispatchers even more depleted and fewer than half the dispatch positions were filled. >> so your question, would it have helped to have more? i think yes. i mean, to have more in that instance, call 911 centers received thousands of calls and 13 times the usual number in the meantime, downed power lines made evacuation routes impassable, oil and fires burned through utility poles and cables, leaving the town of lahaina without cell service. >> oh my gosh, exacerbate the police response. >> not all officers had proper protective gear to respond. what happened in hawaii offers a cautionary tale for understaffed police departments across the country. a recent study found police agencies nationwide are losing officers faster than they can hire new ones, with 50% more resignations in 2022 than in 2019, when the cause of the fire is still under investigation. this report did not look into

claims about the power company's potential responsibility for not cutting off electricity during the heavy winds, several other investigations are pending. andrew andrea allison, thank you. >> a second wave of flu appears to be making its way across the country. health officials say flu cases are up in the midwest and the south after seeing a drop after the holidays. most of the increased activity is in people ages five through 24, very high flu activity is being reported in georgia, new mexico, new york city and south carolina . more than half of americans have not had their flu shot. >> coming up, the fight to unionize college sports. >> also ahead, the one question a reporter dared to ask travis kelce in las vegas last night. >> o
