7:06 am
most of the 331 passengers were able to walk away from it. the ntsb will be looking at the signals. remember the derailment last may, north of philadelphia, they put in positive train control, why didn't that stop this accident from happening yesterday? >> just one of the many questions, david, thanks very much. the largest leak of secret documents in history, publication of what's being called the panama papers, a worldwide corruption scandal. billions of dollars hidden by some of the most richest powerful people on the planet. abc's chief foreign correspondent terry moran has the latest from london. good morning, terry. >> reporter: this scandal is exploding on a global scale right now, burning up social media. edward snowden tweeting it's the largest leak in the history of journalism. 11 million documents, ten times what snowden leaked. it all centers on a secretive

law firm in panama. that has allegedly helped the world's rich and powerful launder their money, evade taxes and dodge sanctions. russian president vladimir putin is not named specifically in these documents but they reveal a telltale trail, set up by his closest inner circle and worth $2 billion. the creme -- kremlin already blasting it. other world leaders involved. king of saudi arabia, even the president of ukraine. syrian president. prim mince of iceland all caught up. no question this scandal is just beginning. >> the consequences could really ripple. now to the race for the white house. voters in wisconsin getting ready to head to the polls tomorrow where republican front-runner donald trump is facing a strong challenge from ted cruz. april shaping up to be a huge month. another huge month, we should say, in the race. with at least 255 delegates at stake for the republicans.
7:08 am
abc's tom llamas is here tracking it all. good morning, tom. >> reporter: senator ted cruz feeling confident about wisconsin. he knows if he wins there, this race could be decided on the convention floor. this, as donald trump is calling for governor john kasich to get out of the race because he's taking away potential votes. this morning, donald trump trying to bounce back after a rough stretch. from drama with his campaign. to fumbling on abortion. and a war of words over with wives. >> was this my best week? i guess not. i could have done without the retweet, et cetera. but i think i'm doing okay. >> reporter: in a rare move, trump admitting he's made mistakes and regrets initially suggesting that women should be punished for having an illegal abortion. >> as a hypothetical question, i would have rather asked -- answered it in a different manner, yeah.
7:09 am
>> reporter: today, wife melania returns to the campaign trail. joining trump in wisconsin. >> he'll be the best president. >> reporter: this, as senator ted cruz says trump's misstatements on issues like abortion happen because he's not a real republican. >> donald's answers are the answers of someone who's a liberal, trying to say what he thinks conservatives want to hear. >> reporter: cruz not the only one taking shots at trump. >> donald trump does not personally condone violence. >> right. let's see what's randomly happening at his rally right now. >> i'm voting for you! >> reporter: for the democrats a new fight is brewing. hillary clinton said she's ready to debate bernie sanders on "gma" before the new york primary in two weeks. sanders, not ready to commit. >> people of new york deserve to hear us discussing the important issues facing that state and facing the country. i suspect it will work out. >> this morning, lot of people in the political world are talking about a new story in the
7:10 am
"new york magazine," about donald trump and in this story, two interesting nuggets, one, ivanka trump wanted donald trump to apologize after his comments about mexican immigrants when he announced and that donald trump has been wearing a bulletproof vest out on the campaign trail. >> tom, thanks very much. my interview now with hillary clinton, she's under pressure from bernie sanders before tomorrow's big vote in wisconsin. we met up in brooklyn where clinton was campaigning in several churches. thank you for joining us. >> glad to be here with you. >> bernie sanders is on a winning streak, won five out of the last six. wisconsin, he's ahead right now. why can't you put him away? >> i'm happy where i'm at. if you look at two of the most important indicators which will decide this, the number of pledged delegates i'm significantly ahead. after all, that's what determines the outcome. the popular vote, i have close
7:11 am
to 9 million votes that's a million more than donald trump and 2.5 million than senator sanders. so i feel like we are on a good path. it's an exciting time in american politics, because i think people are really tuning in and trying to figure out what we're going to do and i think what i have said is we need to elect somebody based on three tests. can you do things that are going to improve people's lives? get results in other words. can you be the commander in chief and keep us safe at home and around the world? can you unify us? we're desperately in need of given some of the rhetoric in this campaign. >> that has been your message so far. it's worked overall as you said. but he's on this winning streak. don't you have to win your home state here in new york in two weeks. >> i'm going to do everything i can to win in as many places as possible. but i have been through this before. we were laughing before we started, i can remember how hard it was when my husband ran in 1992.
7:12 am
i ran a tough campaign against then-senator obama. i ended up with slightly more votes but he ended up with more delegates. so, we have a system and i'm very confident that i'll be the nominee. i'm not taking anything for granted. >> even if you don't win new york? >> i'm confident that i'll get the nominee. i'll do everything i can to win new york. i represented new york for eight years. i feel deeply about this state. i'm proud of the work that i did with so many thousands of new yorkers. so, of course, i'm going to work incredibly hard. >> you know, in milwaukee on saturday night, you talked, you're a loyal, true democrat, always have been a democrat, clearly a shot at bernie sanders. when i asked him about that, the fact that he's an independent is a strength in the campaign. because he can bring independents. he points out in a lot of the polls right now, he does better than you in the general election.
7:13 am
>> well there are a lot of polls that say just the opposite. but polls this far out don't mean anything. what's important is not what somebody's theory is but how many votes have you gotten. that's what we determine elections based on. i also believe it's important that we elect more democrats. i would love to see the senate go back to being democratic instead of having republicans who won't do their constitutional obligation. >> you don't think he can do that? >> well, there's no indication there's any interest there. i'm committed to electing democrats. i'm committed to raising money. i'm helping to fund democratic campaigns. at the end of the day, a president can do a lot and i have a very robust agenda with big goals for our country. i think i got a track record of proven results. i think it will be better for the country if we move away from the obstructionism, the extreme partisanship that we're seeing in the senate today. and we get back to people who want to work together and want to follow the constitution, which right now doesn't seem to be the case. >> you're hitting donald trump pretty hard.
7:14 am
your first ad here against donald trump. are you worried at all this goes to a contested convention on the republican side and they pick somebody else, a fresh face, who might be a more difficult challenge. >> i had that experience, too. i started running out in the new york senate, rudy giuliani, he dropped out and then i had a fresher face to run against. i have no control over what the republicans do. but i do think it's important, even though i'm working hard to win the nomination and compete with senator sanders everywhere, it's important not to let the kind of comments we're hearing not just from donald trump but the other republican contenders go unanswered because the world hears those. lot of people in our country hear insulting comments about immigrants being called rapists and criminals. religiously profiling muslim communities. and they wonder what is happening in our country.
7:15 am
while i'm focused on the primary and getting the number of delegates necessary to be the nominee i'm going to keep standing up to donald trump, ted cruz or anybody else who are saying things that are so contrary to who we are. that gets me to the last test, do you want to unify the country? or do you want to divide us more than we already are? >> you and bernie sanders are going to debate in new york. >> i'm hoping to, we offered dates which they refused. you offered -- "gma" offered a debate during "gma" on friday the 15th. i'll be there. i think it's great opportunity to reach an audience that may not be able to because of other obligations to tune in to debates. i understand there's a debate in the works for the night of the 14th. i'll be there. i want to debate and i'm confident that we can work out a time to do that. >> thank you. >> good to talk to you, george, thanks. >> excited if we get the debate.
7:16 am
>> very exciting. let's move on to march madness, the final matchup turning into a sibling showdown. two friends, turned brothers, facing off tonight in the big championship game. jesse palmer is here with all of the details. good morning, jesse. >> that's right, nate britt and his adopted brother kris jenkins. they have been shooting hoops together since they were 10 years old. nate plays for north carolina. kris is a forward for villanova. they're extremely close, right now, allegedly, they're giving each other the silent treatment until they meet on the court. this is it. villanova versus unc. the wildcats versus the tar heels and brother versus brother? that's right, when villanova faces north carolina tonight, two brothers will be going toe to toe against each other. fighting for the national championship as well as a lifetime of bragging rights. >> i expect this game to be super competitive.
7:17 am
>> reporter: nate britt is a junior at unc. kris jenkins, a junior at' nova. they played aau basketball together when they were 11. that's when jenkins' mother a basketball coach who moved around the country decided her son would have an opportunity for a more stable life with the britt family. >> for them to take a total stranger in the house was a blessing. >> reporter: the britts adopted him. >> you know know what's going to happen. tonight, they'll square off against each other. the men joining the ranks of sibling rivalries. think peyton manning and eli manning. or venus and serena williams. how will it feel for them? >> there's no one i want to beat more than my brother. >> reporter: it looks like brotherly love will have to wait. of course while this may cause a bit of family feud, this is

8:31 am
what you're doing there with me and unfortunately, if you think that getting frozen yogurt instead of ice cream means that you're getting less sugar -- well, think again. get some fro-yo?. what's better than a little fro-yo. come on, it's yogurt? >> it's different. >> reporter: this nutritionist says, no way. >> you're going to get protein, no added sugar, good choice. really, really healthy. >> reporter: the nutrition from five national chains. 18 grams of sugar with some as 28 grams of added sugar. twice what a kid should eat. there's another problem, that 28 grams of sugar it's for a four-ounce serving. this is what four ounces of fro-yo looks like. in these huge cups, it looks tiny. no surprise people serve themselves so much more than
8:32 am
that four-ounce serving. i went to four shops. no one had cups smaller than 12 ounces. some had 32-ounce cup. can i weigh your yogurt? 12.6 ounces. 17 ounces of yogurt. this yogurt alone, before you even get to toppings has at least 126 grams of sugar, equal to 30 sugar cubes, that's way over the limit. 30 cubes of sugar. is that what you would have expected? >> no. >> i thought it less than ice cream, but it's not. >> i bring my grandchildren here. >> reporter: we reached out to yogurt land who had the highest sugar count and they said we offer a variety of custom frozen yogurt flavors and toppings that appeal to our guests. guests tell them they appreciate making their own creations knowing they can be as indulgent or healthy as they can be. but sticking to that four-ounce

8:34 am
>> but look at this, on this side, i have the fro-yo. on this side the ice cream. look at that. >> wow. >> the ice cream has more fat, sure enough, but that's only five sugar cubes' worth. but if we have the same serving size of fro-yo, plus some candy, two tablespoons of candy, it goes to 12 sugar cubes and that's for the four-ounce size. >> this is so eye-opening. sorry, kids, things are changing at the robach house. for more tips go to "good morning america."com on yahoo!. and let's go back outside to rob in boston. >> can you believe it? it's april 4th in copley square. we can barely see the onhancock tower there. it's continues to come down and will for the next several hours.
