7:03 am
how sellers are hoping to perk up the market and the warnings from financial experts about the potential risks for buyers facing higher interest rates. >> whit: but we do begin here with the ongoing reaction to former president trump's criminal con conviction in new york. both president trump and president biden speaking to reporters. abc white house correspondent maryalice parks joins us now with the very latest. maryalice, good morning. >> yeah, whit, good morning. yesterday we saw president trump absolutely raging about this case, airing grievances, attacking everyone involved. republicans then piling on. all of it prompting president biden to break his silence. >> oh, we're going to fight. >> reporter: promising to appeal his conviction, former president donald trump taking to the microphones to fume and rail about the case against him calling it a scam. >> it was a rigged trial. we wanted a venue change where we could have a fair trial. we didn't get it. we wanted a judge change. we wanted a judge that wasn't conflicted, and obviously he didn't do that. >> reporter: trump convicted as
7:04 am
charged. on all 34 felony counts, the jury selected by both the prosecution and the defense. buying the prosecution's argument that trump illegally worked to falsify business records to conceal a hush money payment to stormy daniels and keep her story from voters before the 2016 election. unapologetic and aggressive trump's remarks also rambling, at times hard to follow including misleading claims about how the case unfolded and attacks against president biden, the prosecuting team, and the judge, at one point calling him a devil and a tyrant. >> this is a case where if they can do this to me, they can do this to anyone. >> reporter: president biden from the white house calling the attacks, dangerous. >> it's irresponsible for anyone to say this was rigged just because they don't like the verdict. our justice system has endured for nearly 250 years, and it literally is the cornerstone of america. >> reporter: biden saying trump had every opportunity to defend himself and will have the opportunity to appeal.
7:05 am
>> it was heard by a jury of 12 citizens, 12 americans. not only given the opportunity as he should to appeal that decision just like everyone else has that opportunity. >> reporter: overnight eight hard-line republican senators vowed retribution. they said that they will actively try to stall legislation the president and democrats have pitched in congress as payback for this jury verdict. payback. >> janai: payback. >> gio: a lot to see and a lot to follow on this story. maryalice, thanks so much. we turn to our other major headline here. president biden taking the unusual step of announcing what he said was an israeli cease-fire proposal to end the war in gaza. the final terms still need to be worked out, and hamas has yet to agree. the president saying, he's urged israel to stand behind the deal. >> it's time to begin this new stage for the hostages to come home, for israel to be secure, for the suffering to stop.
7:06 am
it's time for this war to end and for the day after to begin, and the people of israel should know they can make this offer without any further risk to their own security because they've devastated hamas. >> gio: and let's go ahead and bring in abc's britt clennett who joins us from tel aviv. good morning, britt. break this down for us. what's in this proposal? >> reporter: good morning, gio. yeah, the three-part proposal would begin with a six-week cease-fire in which the idf would withdraw from the populated areas of gaza. now, that initial phase includes releasing some of the hostages, and at this stage there will also be a surge of humanitarian assistance with 600 trucks a day. now, the second phase calls for a complete withdrawal from gaza, and the final stage, it will be the start of a major reconstruction plan in gaza with u.s. and international help to rebuild homes and hospitals and schools. now, earlier i spoke with a foreign policy adviser to israeli prime minister netanyahu who gave no indication
7:07 am
israel is actually willing to permanently end fighting by the second phase saying, israel must first destroy hamas' military capabilities, and only then will it agree to a full cease-fire. he said, the notion that a permanent cease-fire will kick in without us destroying hamas and freeing our hostages is a nonstarter saying that israel would not settle for anything less than a total victory. now, we also heard a statement from hamas saying it views biden's speech positively, that it agrees with a permanent cease-fire saying that this is the result of hamas' resistance efforts. janai? >> janai: we will see what happens. britt, thank you for that update. back here at home now to the historic lawsuit in texas. the state's highest court rejecting a challenge to the restrictive abortion law brought by more than 20 women, all of whom faced serious medical complications during their pregnancies. abc's jaclyn lee is here now with the details from that. jaclyn, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, janai, good morning to you.
7:08 am
look, this was a unanimous decision, and it is worth noting all nine justices are republican. now, critics of the ruling say it doesn't offer enough clarity as to when abortions are allowed. this morning, a new legal blow to the texas women challenging abortion bans across the state. the texas supreme court issuing a unanimous decision friday to uphold the current ban after a group of women filed a lawsuit last year claiming the law lacked clarity when it came to medical and emergency exceptions. >> i cannot adequately put into words the trauma and despair that comes with waiting to either lose your own life, your child's or both. >> reporter: the lawsuit led by plaintiff amanda zurawski grew to include 2 doctors 20 women, who say they were denied abortions saying they were denied abortions despite
7:09 am
life-threatening pregnancy complications and friday's decision saying texas law permits a lifesaving abortion. the justices saying the trial court overstepped by permits abortions for any unsafe pregnancy, which the justices said would open the door to permit abortion to address any type of pregnancy risk. several of the plaintiffs testifying in court last summer. >> my daughter was born to die after birth or before birth. >> reporter: and recalling their ordeals to abc news like kristen who says she became septic after her water broke at 16 weeks. her fetus dying inside her. >> the exact words were, we have to prove to the ethics board and the medical board of this hospital that your life is in danger before we can intervene. >> reporter: it's a hot button issue all across the country with 21 states that have successfully enacted restrictions or bans on abortion since the overturn of roe v. wade. the center for reproductive rights, who filed the case on behalf of those texas women, saying in a statement, the court dismissed the claims that patients have constitutional rights to their lives, their health, and their future
7:10 am
fertility, and as for what's next, the lawsuit will move through the state trial court system while the law remains in effect. whit? >> whit: all right, jaclyn, thank you. a retired four-star admiral who was once the number two officer in the u.s. navy has been arrested on bribery charges. admiral robert burke is accused of directing a lucrative government training contract to a private company that promised him a $500,000 annual salary, plus stock options after retirement. prosecutors say the bribery scheme happened over a two-year period from 2020 to 2022 when burke was the head of naval operations in europe and africa. burke has not entered a plea. gio? >> gio: okay, whit, now to the emotional end to the trial of michelle troconis. she's the woman convicted of helping her boyfriend kill his estranged wife and mother of five, jennifer dulos. abc's morgan norwood is here with more. good morning, morgan. >> reporter: good morning, gio. michelle troconis will spend the
7:11 am
next 14 1/2 years in prison, and before learning her fate, she faced each of jennifer dulos' five children. one by one they confronted troconis explaining how her actions destroyed their lives. at one point troconis bursting into tears. michelle troconis, the connecticut woman convicted of heavying her then boyfriend murder his estranged wife facing each of the couple's heartbroken children during her sentencing hearing. >> the only time i can feel my mom's presence is through memories. >> reporter: christiane dulos was 10 years old when her mother, jennifer dulos, was murdered. the now 15-year-old fighting back tears as she addresses the court. >> michelle troconis to me is the reason i feel completely lost and alone on nights when i cannot sleep. she's the reason why i've blocked out my childhood. >> reporter: at one point dulos other son, theodore, lashed out at troconis. >> i will never forgive you for what you have done, and until you give us more answers, you will be considered evil, violent and a coward. >> reporter: his scathing words causing her to break down in tears. after hours of victim impact statements, a plea for mercy
7:12 am
from troconis' own daughter. >> i am begging you to listen. i need my mom in my life. >> reporter: the judge later sentencing the 49-year-old to at least 14 years behind bars. her attorney had argued for probation. troconis tearfully addressing the court but didn't directly apologize to the dulos family or acknowledging jennifer. >> i am deeply sorry by this tragedy that has affected so many lives. >> reporter: it was a case that caught national attention in may 2019 with what started out as a missing persons investigation when 50-year-old jennifer dulos disappeared shortly after dropping her kids off at school. but suspicion quickly narrowed on her estranged husband, fotis dulos, who was in a relationship with troconis at the time. he died by suicide shortly after they were charged with her death. jennifer's remains have never been found, but she was declared legally dead last year. for her family this sentence brings the closure they wanted but does not return the mother they lost, and prosecutors were pushing for 45 years in prison. they were saying they were expecting a more stringent sentence.
7:13 am
meanwhile, troconis' defense says that they plan to appeal the judge's decision, so we'll see what happens there. >> janai: and all the while remembering that their five children who don't have either of their parents. thank you, morgan. well, we are learning more about just what caused a huge explosion that blew out the ground floor of an apartment building in youngstown, ohio, just days ago, and we're now seeing dramatic video, you see it right here, of first responders at the scene just moments after the blast. abc's phil lipof is here with more. those harrowing first moments, phil, good morning to you. >> janai, good morning. and that dramatic body cam video that you're talking about gives us more insight into just how chaotic the moments were after that blast. also this morning, we now know people had just a matter of minutes to get out of that building before it exploded. this morning, we're learning more about what may have caused that deadly gas explosion at an ohio building that killed one and injured at least seven others, and this new video from an officer's body cam showing
7:14 am
the moments immediately after the blast as first responders rush into the building. you can clearly hear the sound of gas hissing as firefighters try to rescue survivors. >> my firefighters went floor by floor clearing that building to ensure that no one else was in that building, and no one else was hurt. >> reporter: the ntsb launching an investigation finding a crew clearing out old infrastructure in the basement cut a gas pipe, unaware that it was pressurized. >> as the crew made two initial cuts into piping along the basement wall. when a third cut was made, the crew immediately realized that there was a problem and that gas had been released. >> reporter: workers telling the ntsb they pulled the fire alarm to get everyone out, and just six minutes later the building exploded. the body of 27-year-old akil drake, who worked at the chase bank on the street level of the building, was recovered. seven others taken to the hospital with injuries. investigators now combing through security videotape from
7:15 am
the bank and other physical evidence. >> one of the things we want to determine was whether there was any sort of an ongoing leak or whether this was something as is currently suspected resulted from cutting this one pipe. >> the ntsb says it has not been able to gain access to the building because they simply don't know if it's structurally safe. once they get the okay from engineers, they'll be able to get back inside and continue to investigate. whit? >> whit: all right. phil lipof for us, thank you so much. we appreciate it. this morning new concern about bird flu. the usda announcing it will spend more than $800 million to protect livestock after a third farm worker was diagnosed with the virus. abc's melissa adan joins us with details now. melissa, good morning. >> good morning, whit. so, these new federal resources are being deployed to combat the bird flu across the country as the cdc confirms a third case of a human infected with bird flu. the usda will now give more than $800 million in emergency
7:16 am
funding. that's on top of the recent $1 billion they gave for testing and monitoring of wild birds, poultry farms, and livestock. now, federal officials continuing to require cattle or their milk be tested before crossing state lines as they take precautions to protect their livestock from the virus. the usda confirming 68 outbreaks in dairy cow herds in at least nine states just these past several months. now, as for this third person with the bird flu, they are the second dairy farm worker to catch the virus in michigan likely from an infected cow, but this is the first patient the cdc says that is experiencing respiratory symptoms like coughing. now, they are on an antiviral treatment recovering at home, and, of course, any spreading virus is a concern following the covid-19 pandemic, but right now the risk to the general population really remains low, and there is no science to suggest that the virus is currently being transmitted from human to human or from properly cooked meat, chicken, eggs, or even pasteurized milk.
7:17 am
so really those at the highest risk are farm workers with exposure to livestock. gio? >> gio: all right, melissa, an important story to watch. thank you so much. let's go to space now. at least that's what boeing is trying to do to try to send astronauts to the international space station aboard its starliner spacecraft, a key moment for the long-delayed project as the aerospace giant tries to redeem its tarnished image. abc's faith abubey has the best seat in the house. she's at the kennedy space center in cape canaveral with more. good morning, faith. >> reporter: hey, good morning to you, gio. here we are again, the boeing starliner is on the launchpad. the flight crew ready for liftoff, but that critical question remains, will this first crewed test mission actually get off the ground this afternoon as planned? it comes just weeks after the last launch attempt was derailed by a sticky valve. this morning the boeing starliner spacecraft set to blast off on its first ever crewed mission after years of delays. >> and liftoff, the rise of
7:18 am
starliner. >> reporter: the historic mission plagued by software glitches and fuel valves and parachute problems, the most recent attempt scrubbed last month two hours from liftoff due to a sticky valve, and now nasa and boeing defending their decision to move forward with another launch attempt today even with the helium leak in the service module of the spacecraft. >> had this occurred in flight, we would have had an unexplained anomaly coming home. we'd have built that same faultry, so i'm confident we would have caught it. >> reporter: astronaut mike fincke will pilot the next starliner mission if this test flight is a success. >> which is a fancy way to say, hey, let's test the thing and make sure it meets the requirements. if it doesn't, let's go fix them. >> reporter: the launch a critical part of nasa's program and boeing hoping the starliner can be an alternative to the spacex crew dragon which carries astronauts back and forth to the international space station. if today's mission goes well, the starliner will be certified
7:19 am
as part of that program. commander butch wilmore and pilot sunita williams, both experienced astronauts and veteran navy pilots, ready to launch the capsule into orbit. >> we're absolutely confident in all aspects. >> we don't expect things to go wrong, but we know that we are going to be fine, because we have this backup capability. >> reporter: and liftoff is scheduled for this afternoon at 12:25. if anything happens, and they have to scrub it one more time, there will be another attempt tomorrow around lunchtime, but as of this moment, boeing and all members of the team are saying, all systems are a go. guys? >> janai: all systems go, a lot to look forward to. faith, thank you so much. you even got the wind blowing there at the end, that beyonce wind, a great shot. let's go to the weather. it was so fun how you said let's go to space. let's go to the weather. somara, take us to denver. >> somara: all right, so we're going to have to wake up,
7:20 am

7:21 am

7:31 am
>> whit: a lot of talk go that for sure. we'll take a look at that ahead. but first the headlines we're following on this saturday morning. happening right now, an idaho jury will continue deliberating today on whether chad daybell will face the death penalty for killing his first wife and two of his second wife's children. the sentencing phase of daybell's trial began just a day after he was found guilty of first-degree murder and conspiracy charges. lori vallow daybell was also convicted of the murder of her children and sentenced to life in prison without the possibility of parole. >> janai: also right now, water was shut off for a large part of atlanta while crews worked to repair multiple water main breaks. at least three breaks were reported friday. authorities say some customers are still without water while others may experience low water pressure. >> gio: and former first lady michelle obama announcing that her mother, her beloved mother, marian robinson, has died. robinson was a fixture in the obama white house where she lived with the first family and helped care for her granddaughters. the obamas saying she passed
7:32 am
peacefully friday morning. marian robinson was 86 years old. but just days ago for mother's day, she posted a photo with her, and they looked so happy together. >> janai: so, sending them lots of love this morning. >> gio: yeah. >> janai: we do start this half hour with a closer look at the donald trump verdict this week. joining us now are deputy political director averi harper and abc white house correspondent maryalice parks. ladies, it is great to have you both here in studio with us. averi, let's start with you and the guilty verdict, donald trump's hush money trial, the first former u.s. president to become a felon. what has the reaction been from trump supporters to voters at large, the effects on the campaign? are we still seeing the legal troubles lead to lots of campaign donations? >> i mean, it is remarkable. we're going to see the republican party have a convicted felon atop its presidential ticket. we've seen prominent republicans of all stripes rallying around the former president, and the evidence we have suggests that the masses of trump supporters are going to stick by
7:33 am
him too. when we look at our last abc news/ipsos poll, what we found is 80% of trump supporters say, if he was convicted of a crime, if he was convicted of a felony, that he was going to -- that they were going to stick by the former president. >> janai: 80%? >> 80% said that, the masses. 16% said they would reconsider their support, and 4% say they were going to withdraw that support. >> janai: that's it. >> yes, that is it, but, of course, in november it is more than just trump supporters that are going to head to the polls. so, we've been talking to voters across the country, our teams about this verdict. some say that they are all in for former president trump since the verdict. some say they're unsure of what they're going to do now that he's been convicted of a felony, and others say that this has really disqualified him in their book, so in a race that was already going to be quite close, this has added another layer of uncertainty. >> whit: and, maryalice, what about reaction from president biden and his campaign now? does he have to walk a fine line with this?
7:34 am
>> have to? i'm not sure. >> whit: is he though? >> he is. >> whit: to a degree. >> absolutely. look, the remarks yesterday from the president were measured, were pretty dispassionate. he focussed on a need to respect the rule of law and said the attacks on the judges and the legal system were dangerous. the campaign took a more aggressive tone. it was out there calling the former president unhinged, desperate, but, look, i've talked to a lot of democrats who disagree here. some think that they should lean in, that it is on them to make sure every single voter has to wrestle with the idea of voting for a now convicted felon and that it's up to them to keep this in the news, that if they don't, maybe voters won't care if they don't tell them to care. other democrats i talk to say exactly the opposite. they are worried about leaning in too much, that strategically that that could be a misstep and could backfire and could play into the former president's narrative that somehow this is all political. i think that all democrats though will agree that they liked the split screen yesterday. you had former president trump out there really venting,
7:35 am
complaining, and you had president biden, while he talked about it, he then went on to work on negotiating a middle east peace job. he was doing the job. he looked like he was the president, and next week he goes abroad for g7 meetings. those are the images the democrats like. >> gio: and like every campaign, there's a lot of money that's happening here. we have trump already capitalizing on this, right, already fund-raising for this. could this also help boost biden? >> we'll see about that. the trump campaign has long used these legal troubles to try and fuel their fund-raising, and this verdict was really no different. almost immediately after the verdict came down, we saw the trump campaign start to send out appeals about this. and it appears it has paid off. the campaign says that it has raised more than $52 million in the 24 hours after the verdict. we saw the biden campaign send out some appeals, as well. some even acknowledging the fact that this was going to energize trump supporters to give to that campaign. i don't think that the biden campaign is expecting to have
7:36 am
the same sort of boost, but, of course, in november, americans do not vote with fund-raising dollars, they vote with ballots. so, we've seen both campaigns urging folks to remember that the real contest is in november. >> janai: and, maryalice, we only have a second left, but talk about the implications on the political calendar. trump's sentencing, just four days before the republican convention. i mean, it is startling. >> absolutely remarkable, and, look, thinking about what we were talking about before we came on the air, we just don't know the impact on the election yet. it is one thing to poll a hypothetical, and it is another for voters to read in black and white "convicted felon," for the weight of that to settle in, for people to wrestle with it, and it's one thing for people who say that they just never thought the charges should have been brought to sort of rally support behind the former president, and we'll see whether democrats do the same and rally support sort of jolted away to support president biden too. >> whit: also the impact on those handful of battleground
7:37 am
