and beating the odds. these twins conjoined at birth, separated at 10 months. now speaking out for the first time on their 18th birthday about their medical miracle kept secret for so long. now, it's time for america to meet these co-valedictorians. only on "gma." we do say good morning, america. and, yes, we did say co-valedictorians. they are truly remarkable young women, and we cannot wait to share this shore with you. >> that is coming up. also, hillary clinton is standing by. robin is going to talk to her. after the breaking news, a deadly incident in afghanistan. five americans killed. it looks like friendly fire. martha raddatz has the details. >> reporter: good morning, george. these were american special operations forces. they were out on a mission

with afghan forces on a security patrol. they were ambushed by the taliban, coming under heavy fire, so they called in air support. that means they want warplanes to come help them out. it was an american b-1 bomber that dropped the bomb. in addition to five american soldiers who were killed, there was one afghan soldier, as well, and we do not know how many wounded. >> martha, you have been one of these missions on fighter jets. do you understand how this could happen? >> this is a very rare occurrence. the mission i was in a fighter jet was very similar to this one when troops on the ground came under fire. there were a series of careful steps before mew anythings are dropped and there is what is called a forward air control. that is someone on the ground with those troops essentially confirming the spot where the bombs would be dropped. i'm told on this deadly mission, there was some miscommunication about the grid and clearly the bomb was dropped on the wrong spot, george. >> just a tragic mistake.

okay. martha, thanks very much. now, let's over to robin. now to hillary clinton joining us live and exclusively, very much in the news right now with her new book out today, it's called "hard choices" fo s focusing on major digs in her personal and public life. madam secretary, welcome. >> thank you. i couldn't help but see how intently you were watching that report. >> it makes me so sick. it's bad enough to lose anybody, but if these reports turn out to be accurate that it was friendly fire, there was some kind of mista mistake, it just compounds the grief and what is going on over there. >> that very much stays in the news and close to you. much reaction already to your book and your interview last night with diane about benghazi. and you wrote in the book about your decision about iraq and the vote there and how you know now and that you should have admitted earlier that you made a mistake. so, when it comes to benghazi,

because it was very interesting, madam secretary, you say "saying you made a mistake is often taken as weakness when, in fact, it can be a sign of strength and growth." so when it comes to benghazi, do you believe you made any mistakes. >> well, i believe that there were systemic problems within the state department, and clearly if we had known that earlier, perhaps we could have done some changes that would have prevented, at least hopefully, could have prevented what happened. but i've obviously thought about this long and hard, and the security issues around this attack or the attacks we had when my husband was president or when president reagan was in office, you learn from them. you can't always predict, you always sit in an office in washington and say, well, we think this, this and this will happen. so i believe the independent

review reached the right conclusion. there were problems and they needed to be addressed, and we did. whether those could have been understood earlier, i'm just not sure about that, robin. >> you also talked a bit about your health. but i want to go first about money because that is something else that the reaction has been very strong about what you said to diane about you and your husband leaving the house as you said, dead broke, using the words struggling and that it wasn't easy when many americans are in the same situation but they though they don't have a book and any opportunities that you have. any regrets in how you phrased that? >> let me clarify that i fully appreciate how hard life is for so many americans today. it's an issue that i have worked on and cared about my entire adult life. bill and i were obviously blessed. we worked hard for everything we

got in our lives, and we have continued to work hard, and we have been blessed in the last 14 years, but i want to use the talents and resources i have to make sure other people get the same chances. so, for me, it's just a reality what we faced when he got out of the white house meant that we had to just keep working really hard. we always have. that's who we are. we're grateful that we can do that. i worry a lot about people that i know personally that don't have the same opportunities that we've been given. >> can you understand the reaction when you say struggling? and when you say -- >> yes, i can. but i think everything in life has to be put into context and as i recall, we were something like $12 million in debt. and, you know, that was something that we really had to work hard. i was in the senate and could not do anything to help us meet those obligations.

and i'm very grateful that my husband who's always been a hard worker since he was born poor and given opportunities with a good education and strong values to work hard and take responsibility, he did that. so, you know, we understand what that struggle is because we had student debts, both of us, we had to pay off. i had a couple of jobs in law school. he had a lot of jobs. so we have a life experience that is clearly different in very dramatic ways from many americans, but we also have gone through some of the same challenges as many people have. >> some people were surprised that you didn't after all that you read and wrote in the book really talk about your concussion that you had in 2012, in light of your husband just last month saying that it took six months of serious work in recovery, so it makes people believe that it was more serious.

>> well, two things about that. i also broke my elbow as secretary of state. i didn't write about that either because, thankfully, you know, those were behind me. and i didn't have to continue to worry about them. what bill is referring to is that when i had the concussion and it was diagnosed, the doctor said, look, you're going to be fine, you're going to fully recover. we're going to make sure of that by telling you what to do and how to do it and i did have some lingering effects. i had dizziness, i had double vision and i work ed out. they said, in six months, we need to have you come back and do a full array of tests to make sure everything is fine and it was. i think that's what he meant. >> it was no surprise that you talked a great deal about president obama and how one-time rival and now the friendship that you were able to forge and how it was like being on a first date ash >> it was.

>> -- after the election. >> it was. >> his foreign policy comes under a great deal of criticism. >> right. >> at an all-time low. if you are to run in 2016, given that you have supported him so strong on his foreign policy, will you have to distance yourself? >> no. because i mean the reason i called this book "hard choices" is because that's what any president faces. i remember very well my husband being in the white house, making some hard choices that were not popular at the time but being able to persevere and everybody could see the results, whether it was in the balkans or bailing out mexico in its financial crisis or anything along those lines and in the book i'm very clear, there were areas that i disagreed with the president on, i talk about those, but we often reached the same conclusion. but at the end of the day he's the president. he gets to make the decision and i respect that 100%. so, for me, this is about trying

to explain to americans how -- how any president, i don't care what party you're in, what perspective or experience you have, any president will face hard choices. hard choices are made with imperfect information by imperfect people, and we have to be doing the best we can every day. now, we have a great system here where we can have a vigorous public debate. where people in washington, people in the press can say, why did you do that and what's the reason for it? that's all part of our system. which i think is the best system in the world. but the hard choices are going to keep coming and where i disagree with president obama, i will be clear, but in many areas, he and i worked together, and i think we saw positive results. i'm very proud of what we did during the time i was there. i think we restored america's leadership at a time when it was in quite dire straits. >> well, we have much more to talk with you about but in a live format we're going to have to break away. we'll come back with you a

little bit later. you talked a lot in the publication about sexism, how it's a different climate now as opposed to when you ran for president. >> let's hope. >> and how it would be different if you were to run in 2016. and a lot of people weighing in. sarah palin sent a tweet overnight. we'll get your reaction to what she had to say about a quote in your book. now, back to george. now to that dramatic police chase caught on camera. an armed man shutting down roads in los angeles. abc's david wright has the story. >> we just saw the suspect stick something outside the left driver's side window. >> reporter: a dramatic chase. the armed suspect running from police at over 100 miles an hour. the drama unfolding live on local news. >> what looked to be an assault rifle. >> reporter: driving that red nissan altima, he branished a high-powered assault weapon outside the window snaking for an hour, the police in hot pursuit. watch as the pan difficulties

the car, and runs near the school. especially this part. >> you could see that this suspect has high ground up on the roof. >> reporter: the suspect raced over rooftops, assault rifle in hand. forcing entire neighborhoods in lockdown. area schools evacuated. parents anxiously texting their kids to make sure they were safe. >> it was pretty nerve-racking. >> reporter: finally the suspect holed up in this north hollywood home. the s.w.a.t. teams held at bay another three hours. finally police fired tear gas into the home, forcing him out, face down on the grass, he surrendered. the suspect now identified as 41-year-old nolan perez, a convicted felon, wanted for stalking and making criminal of threats. he faces a slew of other charges. the incredible thing, no one was injured here. even by hollywood standards this was a wild ride. george, robin.

>> a tense situation. david, thanks very much. now to the v.a. scandal which is now a criminal investigation. an extensive new report reveals that more than 100,000 veterans waited to see a doctor. and some never saw a doctor at all and some were pressured to falsify records. abc's jim avila with the latest. >> reporter: now the v.a. scandal has now become a criminal investigation. a bipartisan group of 21 senators writing to the attorney general urging the fbi to join the hunt. overnight, the acting inspector general telling the senate veterans affairs committee that the department of justice has, in fact, been called in to dein supervisors deserve to be criminally prosecuted. >> we have been in discussion with the department of justice concerning those and whether or not in the opinion of the department of justice, they rise to the level of criminal prosecution. >> reporter: the ig telling congress hospital supervisors directed schedulers to cook the

books. and now the veterans administration itself finding that the scheme to hide wait times for veterans to see doctors is widespread. the v.a. audit released monday determining that 57,000 veterans have been waiting to see doctors for more than three months. and schedulers at 90 clinics across the country admit they made it appear vets are getting quick access to medical care when they're not. veterans groups say it's time for massive reform. >> it turns out that we knew this problem was bad. we didn't realize how bad it was. >> reporter: the c.a. says it's calling vets one by one to get them off waiting lists and into doctors' offices. a total of 50,000 contacted so far. >> we also have to work to earn back the trust of our veterans. and we'll do that one veteran at a time. >> reporter: this is the first time the inspector general has reve revealed that he has called in the attorney general to

determine if there's been criminal activity at the v.a. scandal that raise this is to a whole new levelment we're going to turn to dan with the other top stories. in for amy. breaking news, one of the largest cities in iraq appears to have fallen to al qaeda. insurgents have taken control of government buildings and the airport in mosul while local police and army officers have simply fled their posts. this is a major blow to iraq's central government created, of course, in which america spent hundreds of billions of dollar and lost hundreds of thousands of lives. also happening right now, 20 more schoolgirls have reportedly been kidnapped by militants in nigeria. the same group holding nearly 300 girls who have not been seen since april. fresh outrage in congress this morning over the deal that freed bowe bergdahl and during a classified brief ing house lawmakers say they were told it was defense secretary hagel that made the final call to carry out the prisoner swap. and that as many as 90 obama

stefanie dolson took a tumble. her heels got caught but she recovered brilliantly doing a little bit of a curtsy for the crowd. consider this irony, last year, dollson was confident to challenge president obama to a dance competition. needless to say the president is now just a little more confident. by the way, the president did take part or did promise to take part in the aforementioned dance contest but off camera he says he doesn't want to embarrass his daughters. >> that's a wise man. >> the children of embarrassing fathers everywhere, mr. president, we salute you. father's day. >> father's day coming up, as well. let's take a look at some video coming in right now of the u.s. team for the world cup, arriving in brazil today. the whole tournament kicks off on thursday. they're going to play on monday against ghana. the odds against them. but they're looking pretty confident as they get off the plane right there. >> they were saying they came from miami. they said no problem. overnight flight. the biggest problem they had to drive four miles.

>> and getting married at 35 which he says he wants to do. we heard what other people think about him. he even says he's a horrible person. is he? >> well, hopefully that's the catalyst to make him look inside and start doing some changing if he's unhappy with who he is because that's where change comes from. it's like, he can't be a cad, if women didn't allow him to be. he says that he's telling women, hey, look, i'm not look for anything serious and they're -- excuse me -- ignoring that. i think that happens all too often. we have a connection. i'm amazing but that's not true. he's telling his truth. you need to hear that. >> why are they ignoring that? >> because everybody just wants what they want. and others try to decide what others are thinking and feeling, and the most dangerous way is when you really think, ooh, he likes me, he acts like he likes me. he's hot for me. >> all people are different. >> he thinks women can change

him. is it okay to date a lot of people online? >> yes, if you're using it to find the person who's right for you, i think it's the best way. it makes so many more people available to you. you can kind of vet somebody, you can see if you have commonality. >> i would love to take this broader, so, you said you have a lot of clients who think men, and i'm not trying to stereotype, these are your clients who believe it's very difficult for men to be monogamous. what do you say to them? >> no, it depends on the man. no man can be faithful. i have women to saying to me, no man can be faithful because they've had experience with men that cheat but i have an awful lot of male clients who say, i don't want more than with one person. i have enough to ham with this one person and that's all i want so i think, yes, absolutely you can be monogamous. it's a choice. >> it's a funny way to put it. >> the story that makes me very glad i'm no longer single. >> yes. >> exactly. >> it was a pretty tough read. i mean -- >> well, good for him for being

honest and even sparking the conversation. but i think, you know, especially when you meet someone online, you feel like you know them. you've chatted with them but you don't. that's the real key. not to jump into something quickly. take the time to get to know them. >> as always, great advice. >> thanks. we move on now to something else that's burning up "the heat index." it's an experiment about makeup. how men and women perceive other women who wear a full face, some or none at all. abc's juju chang. >> reporter: they say beauty is only skin deep, but a recent survey claims that nearly half of american women admit they wouldn't be caught dead without a little makeup on. and that 44% say they feel unattractive without it. >> we feel more confident. we exude confidence. >> reporter: but can the amount of makeup you pack on your face increase the way you're perceived by others? 21-year-old college senior brittany parker decided to find out.

what impact does wearing makeup have on not just the wearer but on the perceiver? >> well, when they wear makeup, we feel more confident and what happens is we come across as more credible. >> reporter: as for brittany she says her experiment has changed her definition of beauty. >> what i think of myself is important. not anybody else. >> reporter: for "good morning america," juju chang, abc news, new york. >> you guys commenting on it. >> yeah. >> than we do. now we're going to go to the woman who considers herself a real-life mermaid swimming with the sharks. all the way to raise awareness about marine life in the oceans and matt gutman has that story. >> reporter: one of the largest predators was bearing down on anna frazier. lady boots with no air and like "jaws."

>> well, robin, i think it's different for women across the board, not just in the political sphere that we continue to have these obstacles to women's full participation. it's true in the corporate sphere, in journalism, in academia, across the board, but i think over the last six, seven year, there has been a much greater awareness in the american public about the double standard, so i really believe that there's a great discussion going on now and whether it's somebody running for president or somebody climbing the corporate ladder or broadcasting or anything else, there's much greater awareness, and that's all to the good. >> let's talk about family. >> yes. >> you and your husband have very intense schedules. how much quality time -- let's say how many days of the month are you actually able to be together? >> now that i'm not travel endlessly a lot we are together a lot. i mean, we just have a lot of time, and it's probably as much time as we have had together, you know, for a number of years, because we're always working hard, we like to work hard, but we also really relish the time

together. >> and the family is growing. you're going to be a grandmother in the fall. >> i'm going to be grandmother. >> have you offered any names to chelsea? >> no. i want this to develop organically. i have talked to my friends who have preceded me into grandmotherhood, and some of them said, i knew exactly what i wanted to be called, and i had a hard time convincing the baby to call me that because he or she wanted to call me something else. i just want to see how this develops. i couldn't be happier. this is something that i've looked forward for a long time. >> the way you write about her in the book, that's quite obvious. and the wedding. and in the seconds we have remaining, something we call of a lightning round. you're known for your sense of humor. so just quick responses to some of the things that people are asking. who is your favorite republican in congress? >> oh, well, despite my problems sometimes with him, john mccain, because he and i have traveled a lot, and, you know, we argue a lot. and he goes off on something that i disagree with, but, you know, i admire him.

and i've spent a lot of time with him. >> and who's the person living that you admire the most? >> well, living is hard because it used to be nelson mandela and probably desmond tutu. >> politicians you would let baby-sit your future grandchild? >> there are a lot of them. you know, i'm very close to a lot of the women in the senate. and i'm putting out the offer right now. if any of them want to baby-sit, all they need to do is call. they've got my number. i'd be thrilled to have them. >> game three of the nba finals. heat or spurs so you have to go with texas or florida. >> florida, when you pose it like that. >> when you pose it like that. okay, you've heard it here first. thank you so much. >> thanks, robin. >> to be here with us live with all you have going on. appreciate it. "hard choices" out today. >> thanks. >> take care. another final check of the weather with cecily. >> thank you, robin. a lot of people out here for r5.

emily and justina, you have a message for rob. >> yes, i do. >> what is that. >> i want to take a selfie with him. >> okay, all right, rob, you heard it here. pressure is on. let's talk about the weather. we had 119 reports of severe weather yesterday, and that threat continues from louisiana into kentucky, strong winds, large hail, even the possibility of some tornadoes. that's the big ppicture. this weather report has been brought to you by nextcard. dan. >> i'm here with two of the stars of "22 jump street," the hot new sequel to "21 jump street. wyatt russell and amber stevens

joining the cop duo of channing tatum and jonah hill. you have a bromance in the movie with channing which makes jonah a little jealous. >> yeah, channing finds a kindred spirit in the character i play. and the character i play, captain of the football-type guy. channing sees in him what he could have been, and it becomes about whether you should be with somebody that's like or opposite of you. >> you actually have a full-on romance with jonah. >> romance, oh, yeah. >> what makes your character and i can't tell if that was an enthusiastic -- >> enthusiastic. >> what makes your character fall in love with jonah hill? >> well what's kind of fun about him, in our first meeting, he gets up on stage and does some slam poetry, and my character is an art student. so i'm all into it. i think it's hilarious that he gets up there and puts

himself out there. and then we have these deep conversations and stuff. i think that's what kind of connects us. >> i wasn't aware that poetry slams are a good way to pick up ladies. >> yeah, in college, ladies are all about it. >> not the college i went to. >> poetry slams. >> i would have tried it if it was a possibility. but i didn't. you actually come from a family of actors. >> yes. >> kurt russell, goldie hawn and your sister kate hudson. you initially didn't want to get into this line of work. what happened? >> i was a professional hockey player. i played goalie for a long time, got injured. when i stopped, i looked for other things to do. i didn't think acting would be something i would be good at. i thought i would give acting a shot. it worked out. >> great to meet you. i'm excited to see the film. and we should tell our viewers that "22 jump street" is in theaters everywhere starting this friday. and coming up,
