7:09 am
prep. michael? >> michael: stakes are big. thank you for that. now donald trump's criminal trial. his former fixer, michael cohen, set to return to the stand this morning for a second day of cross-examination. aaron katersky is at the courthouse. good morning, aaron. >> reporter: good morning, michael. michael cohen is back here in court for another day of cross-examination which so far has focused on michael cohen. his obsession with donald trump. his desire to see him convicted. and how he has made money by bad mouthing trump. the defense asked nothing about the most damaging testimony cohen delivered, cohen testified trump knew about the $130,000 payment to stormy daniels and made a plan to pay back the money. cohen said he sent monthly invoices but told the jury he performed no services. the checks, trumps signed, he
7:10 am
said, was the reimbursement of the hush money meant to silence daniels. the defense cast cohen as a spurred underling whose testimony cannot be trusted. todd blanche said he expects to keep cohen on the witness stand all day for cross-examination, robin. >> robin: we will see what happens today. thank you. we're going to turn to the dozens arrested on a california college campus at uc irvine overnight as law enforcement cleared out a pro palestinian encampment. morgan norwood is here with the latest. good morning, morgan. >> good morning, robin. yes, tensions have been building for days leading up to this. overnight the university's president authorizing police to take down an encampment. we have dozens of officers in riot gear making arrests overnight. let's take you there. pro palestinian demonstrators started rallying at the school's lecture hall yesterday afternoon putting up tents and building these massive encampments, much like the ones we've seen at college campuses across the country. now the group demanding the university divest from israel
7:11 am
over the war in gaza. their encampment blocking entry to the hall. in a statement, the university's president saying he's broken hearted that it had come to this. saying the group had several warnings and wanted to allow the group to have a peaceful encampment. classes are remote for the day and employees are being urged to work from home. michael? >> michael: morgan, thank you for that. now the temporary pier in gaza receiving its first ship of humanitarian aid. matt gutman is there with the latest. good morning, matt. >> reporter: good morning, michael. this has been in the works for months, cost millions of dollars, thousands of military personnel involved. u.s. officials said they have not allowed any u.s. troops to enter. they have anchored that pier just off the coast of gaza. the general concept is to allow aid, significant amount of aid to be delivered directly into gaza. there are already two inbound ships carrying aid. the choreography here is incredibly complex. it involves the u.s. military
7:12 am
but also the israeli military, which will handle logistics and security. the u.n., which will receive the aid and palestinian subcontractors who will then distribute the aid. the u.s. says the pier could be operational in the next couple days. but u.n. officials tell me they still haven't managed to hammer out the agreements here. security remains an issue. you may be able to see the columns of smoke behind me. that's where israel re-entered areas it had cleared months ago, where hamas has regrouped. this is happening across gaza. george? >> george: okay, matt. thanks. we turn now to the super bowl kicker from the kansas city chiefs getting backlash after his commencement speech he made. stephanie ramos has the story. good morning, stephanie. >> good morning. harrison buckter delivered his address at the private christian school near kansas city. he hit on a number of topics including roles of men and women, the covid response and president biden's policies. he kicked the longest field goal
7:13 am
in super bowl history to lead the kansas city chiefs to victory over the 49ers. >> that is now nine consecutive makes from outside 50. >> reporter: but this morning he is making headlines for remarks off the field during a commencement address at benedictine college in kansas. a conservative catholic liberal arts school. >> it is safe to say that over the past few years i have gained quite the reputation for speaking my mind. >> reporter: sounding off about working women. >> i think it is you, the women, who have had the most diabolical lies told to you. how many of you are sitting here now about to cross this stage and are thinking about all the promotions and titles you are going to get in your career? some may go on to lead successful careers in the world but i would venture to guess a majority of you are most excited about your marriage and the children you will bring into this world. >> reporter: he then referred to pride month, which celebrates the lbgqt community as a deadly sin. >> not the deadly sin pride that
7:14 am
has an entire month dedicated to it, but the true god centered pride that is cooperating with the holy ghost to glorify him. >> i couldn't believe it was such an outdated antiquated view on lgbtq people, and women. and using religion in a way. >> reporter: he also mentioned priests who have become too familiar with parishioners illustrating his point by borrowing a line from a song written by a certain famous teammate's girlfriend. >> as my teammate's girlfriend says, familiarity breeds contempt. >> reporter: that line from taylor swift drawing the ire of swifties. one writing i don't think you grasped the message of the taylor song you quoted. go listen to her albums as homework. the nfl reacting saying -- harrison butker gave a speech in his personal capacity. the views are not those of the nfl as an organization. the nfl is steadfast in our commitment to inclusion, which
7:15 am
only makes our league stronger. there were apparently some mixed reviews in the crowd. but in the end he did receive a standing ovation from the graduates, for many graduates and some attendees there. >> robin: usually the commencement address is about the graduates not about your personal views in that. >> right. i think it's important to remember also that the school did invite him and he's made his catholic conservative views very well known. you're right, uplifting, right? was it an uplifting speech? i don't know. >> robin: he got a standing ovation after that. all right, thank you. we have dramatic dash cam video showing the moment a semitruck crashed out of control and was left dangling off a bridge in louisville. alex perez has the story for us. good morning, alex. >> reporter: hey, good morning, robin. this is one of those videos that just makes your heart race. now that semitruck driver was just crossing the bridge when suddenly she and the truck almost ended up in the river. this morning our first inside
7:16 am
look at the harrowing and heart stopping moments that led to this semitruck precariously dangling on this bridge over the ohio river in louisville with the terrified driver still inside the cab. >> two trucks just got into an accident and a semitractor trailer is hanging over the bridge. we need people right now. >> reporter: cameras from multiple angles capturing the moment the driver of this pickup swerved to avoid a stalled car, slamming into the semitruck driven by 26-year-old sydney thomas. she's left hanging nearly 100 feet above the river. you can hear the horror in her screams. more than 40 louisville firefighters working for nearly an hour. finally with precision and focus, those teams able to rescue the semitruck driver. >> she was thanking, you know, thank god. that's what she kept saying, thank god. >> reporter: the video is now evidence presented in court wednesday in the case against that pickup driver who has been charged of four counts of wanton endangerment and operating a
7:17 am
motor vehicle with a suspended license. he has not yet entered a plea. in a statement his attorney telling abc news in part, mr. branham feels terrible for the truck driver and the trauma she suffered and sincerely thanks to brave individuals who risked their lives to save her. and that semitruck driver was, thankfully, not injured. a grand jury is set to hear the case against the pickup driver next month. guys? >> michael: how scary. glad she's okay. thank you so much for that. coming up we have my exclusive with actress olivia munn on her cancer fight and the risk she took to grow her family. >> george: plus a family coming face to face with a cougar in their back yard. >> robin: oh my. how uber is looking to shake up shuttle. but first let's go to ginger. good morning. >> ginger: good morning. parts of texas and louisiana are preparing for life threatening flash flooding today. there's an area from dallas, who's had their third wettest
7:18 am
year of the season, even jackson mississippi under flood watch. it is the piney woods of texas and louisiana where we're really concerned about the flash flooding later today because this area has had up to 600% of their normal rainfall just the last two weeks. they are swollen. those creeks and rivers can't hold anymore. the soil won't be able to handle 2 to 3 inch per hour rainfall rates. we're talking about locally up to 9 inches of rain. high risk days don't happen often. they only account for about 4% of the flash flood risk from the wpc. it's rare to see this. we know it causes deaths and dangerous destruction. we also will see hail with some of these storms. we saw it already in oklahoma. up to softball size hail. on top of all that flash flood threat, you also have damaging winds that will blow through san angelo, waco, austin, south of dallas and ft. worth. a lot going on in texas and louisiana. your local weather in 30 seconds.

7:35 am
>> michael: munn shared a 2 1/2-year-old son malcolm with her partner comedian john mulaney. how has it been having john there to support you? >> he's honestly just the best human being. he comes to everything in life with so much compassion and understanding. the one problem is that he makes me laugh so much. there's times i'm like, you have to leave the room. this is insane. >> michael: that's when you're with a funny man. >> i know. i just say leave the room. you have to leave. you're going to make me angry now. i'm going to literally pop a fist. >> michael: it's going to hurt. >> it's going to hurt. >> michael: because of the potential impact on her future fertility, she decided to under go egg retrieval. something munn had done twice before in her 30s. >> john and i talked about it. we realized we weren't done growing our family. right after the double mastectomy i went through a round of egg retrieval.
7:36 am
that's scary. i have a cancer that beefs up with hormones so i knew there was a risk. our doctor said, look. we're going to get one for you and then we're going to call it. then doctor called and he said, hey, we got the results back. it's two healthy embryos. we just started bawling crying, both of us. >> michael: have you thought that far ahead about what the future of your family looks like? >> really just hope it works out for us to have another baby. we just want one more. i'm not going to ask for too much more in this life, i promise. i just want one more baby. >> michael: because luminal b is a hormone positive type of breast cancer, munn's treatment involves supressing production of the hormones that cause it to grow putting her body into medically induced menopause. >> the hormone suppression therapy is brutal. it gave me next level
7:37 am
debilitating exhaustion. i was in bed all day long, all day long. my quality of life was so minimal. i wasn't able to be there for my baby. >> michael: did he notice a change? >> yeah, yeah. i mean, whenever malcolm would come home, he would run to my bed because that's where he knows i am. that's what he associated with me. that was just too difficult for me to take. i had to find out if there was another option so i opted to do the hysterectomy with the ovarectomy. almost immediately after that my energy just came back full force. >> michael: soon munn said her doctor wants her to start another drug that will stop her from producing the cancer growing hormones elsewhere in the body. >> i have been aggressive. i did everything they told me to do. i did all the big surgeries.
