[ laughter ] >> whit: good morning america. >> michael: good morning. i get to feast my eyes on all of that. it would not be a friday without the right stuff. and we're bringing you new kids on the block live in times square. >> rebecca: i which i could tell my childhood self that i would be talking to nkotb today. we're looking forward to that. as many of us count down to memorial day weekend, we are breaking down the best sales already hitting the shelves as the tsa predicts a record travel season is about to take off. >> whit: we begin with the deadly storm bringing dangerous winds and widespread flash flooding. take a look at downtown houston right now. that is just a glimpse of the severe damage there.

at least four people were killed near the city. our ginger zee starts us off. ginger, this looks like damage after a possible tornado. >> ginger: yeah. it doesn't really matter whether it's a tornado, straight line winds. they'll get out and tell us what it was today. is your family all right? this was big. >> michael: they're all right. they're all right. >> ginger: this was a gnarly line of storms. unfortunately, it went right into downtown houston. we saw the time lapse. the mayor was saying it looks like when they had hurricane ike. unfortunately, we're not done yet. we've got flood watches all the way to destin and more storms to go tonight. overnight deadly storms sweeping across the western gulf coast. southeast texas with winds over 80 miles per hour. near houston, at least four people were killed. at one point overnight, more than 1 million customers in

texas and louisiana without power, as those vicious winds took down transmission lines. >> i can't emphasize enough the danger of fallen trees and fallen utility lines. downtown is a mess. it's dangerous due to the glass and the traffic lights. stay at home. >> ginger: downtown houston, a mess. >> it just looks like a bomb went off and everything is damaged. >> ginger: windows blown out of skyscrapers, streets littered with debris. >> we could feel the building shake. then the ceiling tile was coming down. >> ginger: the roof of this hyatt hotel sent flying. a large chunk of this bar crumbling. >> i realized it was pretty bad when it got black. i mean, it really got dark. >> ginger: astros fans scrambling after rain got through the dome at minute maid park. trees littering the streets. this tire shop barely standing. >> it's hard. i worked for two years and a half, my family business. i'm sorry.

>> ginger: and with all the damaging winds, torrential rain. radar estimates up to half foot, leading to widespread flash flooding. so i think flooding is the daytime hazard that we're going to watch for because the storms are slightly less powerful. but we are going to reinvigorate the atmosphere and later tonight from lafayette through new orleans in the overnight hours, people will be sleeping and you'll get this big line of storms again. you do want to know from hat hattiesburg to montgomery, the flood concern going through tomorrow. >> rebecca: we know you'll stay on it, ginger. we will be thinking of all those people in that zone. okay. we turn to supreme court justice samuel alito under fire after the new york times published a picture of an upside down flag flown outside his home in 2021 just days after the january 6 riot. our senior national correspondent terry moran is outside the supreme court with the story. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, rebecca. justice alito is no stranger to

controversy, but this incident at his home days after the january 6 attack on our capitol is stunning and unprecedented at the supreme court. this morning an unusual controversy is swirling around supreme court justice samuel alito. it shows the justices home with the american flag flying upside down outside of t it. "the times" said it was taken in january 2021 just days after the january 6th attack, just before president biden took office. flying the flag upside down is meant to be a signal of dire distress in instance of extreme danger, according to the u.s. flag code. it's also been used as a symbol of protest over the years. after the 2020 election some of donald trump supporters adopted the upside down flag to object to biden's victory. falsely claiming biden stole the election. "the times" reported e-mails between alito's neighbors show

the flag was flying for multiple days. some interpreting it as a political statement by the couple. >> they were incredulous because one of the bedrock rules of being a federal judge is that you are not supposed to take part in politics. >> reporter: representatives for alito and the court did not respond to questions from abc news. the "new york times" says justice alito confirmed the incident to them, telling "the times" it was solely his wife's decision to fly the flag like that and that she was in a dispute with the couple's neighbors after one displayed an anti-trump sign that contained a curse word. alito writing, i had no involvement whatsoever. it was briefly placed by mrs. alito in response to a neighbor's yard sign. >> days after january 6th days before president biden's inauguration. the court was still considering whether to take 2020 election case.

it was very much a live, legal issue. >> reporter: justice alito has a history of stirring political controversy, unusual for supreme court justices. the author of decisions that overturned roe versus wade, he mocked criticism of the ruling that ended a federal right to abortion. >> i had the honor this term of writing i think the only supreme court decision in the history of that institution that has been lambasted by a whole string of foreign leaders. [ laughter ] >> reporter: and alito famously heckled president obama at the 2010 state of the union when obama criticized the court's citizens united campaign finance decision. alito calling out, not true, at obama. and one possible concern about that upside down flag. there are still cases before this court stemming from january 6th including former president trump's claims of absolute immunity for his actions at that time. and one more thing. there has been no statement from mrs. alito, whom justice alito

blames for the incident. whit? >> whit: thank you. now the criminal trial of former president trump. the defense grilling trump's former fixer, michael cohen, for a second day, accusing him of lying on the witness stand. aaron katersky has the latest from the courthouse. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, whit. the trial is not sitting today so former president trump can attend his youngest son's high school graduation. but the trial is nearing an end after the defense accused the star prosecution witness of lying. two weeks before the 2016 election, michael cohen said he called donald trump's bodyguard keith schiller, to get trump on the phone. cohen testified he wanted to discuss the stormy daniels matter and the resolution of it. defense attorney, todd blanche, his voice rising, said that was a lie. the defense showed these text message suggesting a different reason for the call. cohen asking schiller, who can i speak to regarding harassing calls to my cell and office? schiller responding, call me.

that was a lie. you did not talk to president trump that night, blanche said, animated. you can admit it. blanche punctuated each word. that was a lie. cohen met blanche with composure. no, sir, i can't. i am not certain that is accurate. the defense showed the call lasted 1:36 but cohen insisted, i believe i was telling the truth. cohen's credibility matters because he's the only witness who directly ties trump to the alleged scheme to falsify business records to hide the hush payment to daniels from voters. trump's ex-fixer pleaded guilty and served time for his role in the hush money and other crimes. the defense wanted the jury to hear cohen gloat. >> revenge is a dish best served cold. you better believe i want this man to go down and rot inside for what he did to me and my family. >> reporter: trump has been coming to court with a daily entourage of congressional republicans and prosecutors complain some of them have walked in during testimony with their security detail for the jury and the witnesses to see. the judge said that shouldn't

happen, but trump's attorney said, i have less than zero control over what is happening. trump is still deciding whether he will testify in his own defense, but, michael, the jury could hear closing arguments early next week. michael? >> michael: thank you so much for that, aaron. we're going to turn now to the insults flying during a heated hearing on capitol hill overnight. our senior congressional correspondent rachel scott is here with details. this was something, rachel. >> heated is one word for it. some days i don't know whether i'm covering congress or a reality show. in all seriousness, these hearings are supposed to be civil. healthy debate over whether to advance legislation or hold a vote in the house. instead it turned into an hour of chaos and disorder, with lawmakers screaming over one another and hurling insults. overnight a new low on capitol hill. >> this is out of control. >> reporter: a late night committee meeting evolving into chaos. at center of it all, marjorie taylor green. >> you don't have enough intelligence. >> chair recognizes mr. perry.

okay. move to strike -- i move to strike that. >> order! >> reporter: the hearing was supposed to center on republicans' demands that attorney general garland turn over audio tapes of president biden's interview with the special council which he has refused to do. instead, it quickly escalated into a heated back and forth. green making comments about democrat jasmine crocket's eyelashes. >> i think your fake eyelashes are messing you up. >> ain't nothing -- >> hold on. order. >> that's beneath even you. >> order, order. >> reporter: at times giggling and refusing to apologize. democrats moved to censure green. >> that is absolutely unacceptable. how dare you attack the physical appearance of another person? >> are your feelings hurt? >> move your words down. >> girl, baby girl. >> oh, really. >> don't even play. >> baby girl? i don't think so. >> we are going to move -- >> reporter: the chairman struggling to maintain control of the committee. >> i'm just curious, just to better understand your ruling.

if someone on this committee then starts talking about somebody's bleach blonde bad built bush body, that would not be engaging in personalities, correct? >> a what now? >> chairman, i make a motion to strike those words. >> i don't think that's part -- >> i'm trying to find clarification. >> calm down. calm down. >> no, no. this is what y'all do. i'm trying to get clarification. i don't want to play games. >> i can't hear you with your yelling. calm down. calm down. can you please calm down? >> no. don't tell me to calm down because y'all talk noise. then you can't take it. >> you're out of control. >> mr. chairman -- >> that actually played out on capitol hill. no apologies were made. after an hour it did eventually get back on track. but the level of decorum sinking lower and lower, guys. i have covered a lot of these markup hearings. i have never witnessed anything like that. >> michael: you mentioned civil. that was out the window.

i was embarrassed to even watch it. >> it just got worse and worse. >> whit: what now? that was the quote of the whole hearing, i think, for me. thank you, rachel. appreciate it. let's turn to the white house and moving to ease federal rules on marijuana that have been in place for 50 years. president biden is calling this a monumental step. >> look, folks. no one should be in jail merely for using or possessing marijuana, period. far too many lives have been up ended because of failed approach to marijuana. i'm committed to righting those wrongs. you have my word on it. >> whit: our senior white house correspondent selina wang is here with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning to you, whit. this is a historic move to ease federal restrictions on marijuana with the biden administration moves to reclass fight as a less dangerous drug. from a schedule 1 drug to schedule 3 which includes tylenol. this won't be immediate, there's a 60 day comment period where americans can weigh in before it is made official.

this does not legalize marijuana nationally, but does mean that possession could come with less penalties. you've got the president campaigning on this. this could boost his re-election chances especially with young voters and black americans, even though white and black americans use marijuana at similar rates black americans are more likely to be arrested and convicted for it. the president has been working on this move since 202. he's already pardoned thousands of people who have been convicted on federal offenses for simple marijuana possession. rebecca? >> rebecca: thank you. we turn now to the heart stopping crash that left a semitruck driver dangling over the ohio river for almost an hour. the driver is sharing her harrowing story for the first time exclusively with whas. alex perez has the details. stunning images, alex. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, rebecca. that semitruck driver said it all happened in an instant. she was convinced she would never make it out alive.

>> it happened so fast. >> reporter: this morning we are hearing from sydney thomas, she was in the driver's seat of the semitruck that dangled precariously over the ohio river in louisville. her first time back at the bridge. thomas speaking to our affiliate whas. >> i was like, i can't believe this, that i'm really hanging over the river. >> reporter: it all began when the driver of this pickup, 33-year-old trevor branham, swerved to avoid a stalled car, slamming into her semi. she crashed into the bridge, staring right at the river. >> i thought that the trailer was still on the bridge. i didn't know that it was like this. >> reporter: stuck there for more than 40 terrifying minutes, wondering what would happen to her 5-year-old son if the worst should happen. >> it was really hard for me to think about leaving him behind. on earth. >> reporter: an army of fire fighters working to rescue her. >> it was terrifying to be that high up in the air and look down

and all you see is the ohio river. >> reporter: finally, firefighter bryce camden reaches her and prepares to get her to safety. are you a praying woman? i said, yep. we just started praying. >> reporter: those prayers, while dangling in the air, a moment thomas says she'll never forget. >> sometimes you pray -- and i'm guilty of this. sometimes i pray an i don't think god is listening. but he was that day. >> reporter: and the driver of that pickup was charged with wanton endangerment and driving on a suspended license. as for thomas, she says she's getting ready to go back to work and get back on the road june 1st. guys? >> michael: we're happy that she's okay. alex, thank you. coming up my exclusive conversation with john oates of the duo known as hall and oates, taking us inside the feud and lawsuit that may have ended 50 years of making music together. >> whit: we're tracking

that was a lie, defense attorney todd blanche yelled, asserting cohen was really speaking in that call to trump's bodyguard. cohen held firm, never lost his composure. the jury must decide whether to believe him, since he is the only witness to testify he directly spoke to trump about the business records prosecutors said trump falsified so voters wouldn't find out about daniels before the 2016 election. after cohen, prosecutors have no witnesses left to call. the defense is still deciding whether to put on a case, including testimony from trump himself. the judge signaled the jury could hear closing arguments soon as tuesday of next week. rebecca? >> rebecca: thank you. we turn now to 5-month-old baby facing 1 in 1 million odds and surviving thanks to a miracle double lung transplant. erielle reshef is here with the details you will hear first on gma. good morning, erielle. what a remarkable story. >> what a story this is, rebecca.
