good morning, america. the fires and the floods, look at the rain rushing into this subway station. >> oh, my god. >> rooftops ripped away. tornadoes tearing through neighborhoods. and now 61 million americans in the threat zone for severe storms. plus, the deadly wildfires. >> feels like it's just coming straight at us. >> this morning flames ravaging seven states as families are forced to evacuate and leave everything behind. terror takedown, the indiana teen arrested as he was heading to new york reportedly on his way to join isis. what authorities are saying this morning about his possible plans for an attack with a pressure cooker. all-out war. donald trump one-on-one with us as he prepares for a new attack on the clintons. and i ask him, will anything be off limits on the campaign trail? his thoughts this morning on

hillary's religion and why he thinks clinton is unelectable. >> she has a bad temperament. she would do so badly with the economy. >> it all comes after hillary clinton launches her own new offensive to take down trump. midair meltdown. movie star selma blair apologizing this morning after being forced to leave on a stretcher following a bizarre rant that frightened fellow passengers. how the "the people v. o.j. simpson" star is explaining her strange behavior. and good morning, america. and good morning, america. a lot of news to get to this morning including, david, your one-on-one with donald trump. >> i spoke to him before his big speech later today and takes on hillary clinton's accusations that she says not only should his finger not be on the button but shouldn't have his hands on our economy. how he responds to that. but we begin with the severe weather alert for so many. the rain and winds that are

ripping through the northeast. millions in the bull's-eye in the midwest right now and unfortunately ginger, you say the worst could still be on the way. >> absolutely. three rounds that we're going to be talking about. severe thunderstorm warnings and watches in parts of illinois moving into indiana at this hour as we look at the radar. but there were more than 125 severe storm report, montana to delaware. >> oh, my god. >> reporter: dangerous storms lacerating roofs on the jersey shore. tossing them into the atlantic. >> oh. >> reporter: gusts reaching 80 miles per hour. hail pelting cars. and in the nation's capital, flash flooding sending water cascading down an escalator at this d.c. metro station. people trekked through the flooded underground carefully making their way up the steps. in maryland, a tornado tearing

an almost 13-mile path. >> it was horrible. everything turned black and we just seen the trees going left and right. >> reporter: storms uprooting trees, tossing them onto cars and into homes leaving them without power. the threat is on along that warm front and that area in red is the moderate risk that something we don't see that often throughout the year so certainly heavier north and west of chicago for tornadoes and then into ft. wayne all the way just north and west of cincinnati you can see damaging winds of 60 plus miles per hour and i want to time it out. you saw the storms happening now. take it to noon, chicago with another hit, right there north of indianapolis and finally just after drive time in chicago or around that time the low passes by and that's when you have the potential for that spin and, therefore, tornadoes so a lot of threats for today including that hail, the damaging wind all for that part right around the great lakes. we'll keep up with it. >> thanks, ginger. in the meantime, we turn to the wildfires raging across seven states this morning. the extreme heat fueling the

flames, residents now being forced to leave their homes as firefighters fight to protect people and their property, as those fires spread. abc's matt gutman has been on the front lines all week long and in duarte, california, this morning. hey, matt. >> reporter: good morning. the fire continues to spread over the past couple of hours we have watched it engulf that valley behind me. these forest service trucks are here in case it spreads to the communities around us. normally at night these fires tend to subside but because it has been so hot and the brush here so dry that fire just continues to burn. this morning, hundreds of firefighters and squadrons of choppers continue to battle infernos out west. the dangerous heat still fueling more than a dozen wildfires burning in seven states. >> we're a little short on resources because of the fire up north and the fire down south but we are getting resources in as we speak. >> reporter: as air assets buzz treetops just over the leaping

flames nearly 600 firefighters grind it out on the ground against twin fires burning just outside of los angeles. the blaze is threatening to merge into one. we watched as this crew labored for an hour trying to cut its way just a few yards up a hill. >> firefighters are telling me they're battling this incredibly steep terrain. they're also fighting the heat and some of this brush here hasn't burned in decades. more than that, they've got to cut through all of this cactus. the blaze chewing up more than 5,000 acres. >> mandatory evacuations. >> reporter: forcing officials to order mandatory evacuations to almost 800 residents. >> last night was really scary. feels like it's just coming straight out at us. >> reporter: this woman's house burned down in 1980 and is now packing into her minivan that which was most precious to her. her three kids. >> reporter: no word when thosing vac cues might be

allowed to go back to their homes and that's because the fire is only 10% contained but perhaps a glimmer of good news. it's forecast to be in the 90 the rest of the week instead of triple digits over the weekend. >> all right, matt gutman, thank you for that reporting. we appreciate it. turning now to politics and hillary clinton's blistering attack on donald trump. who then blasted the presumptive democratic nominee right back. abc's cecilia vega is in cincinnati, ohio, with more on that. good morning to you, cecilia. >> reporter: amy, good morning to you. hillary clinton says donald trump could send this country back into a recession if he's elected and she's got another big speech planned today where she'll try to convince voters that she is the better choice for the economy. but there are dueling speeches in the works, donald trump has a big attack planned too. hillary clinton's latest attack hitting her billionaire businessman rival where it hurts, in the wallet. >> we can't let him bankrupt america like we are one of his failed casinos. >> reporter: in the battleground

of ohio -- >> all: hillary, hillary. >> reporter: clinton delivering one of her longest speeches yet, 45 minutes of donald trump bashing. >> he's written a lot of books about business, they all seem to end at chapter 11. [ laughter ] >> reporter: from his businesses to his refusal to release his taxes. >> you have to ask yourself, what's he afraid of? maybe that we'll learn he hasn't paid taxes on his huge income or maybe he isn't as rich as he claims. >> reporter: and trump giving it right back from instagram -- >> hillary clinton's only right about one thing, i understand debt and how to handle it. i've made a fortune with debt but debt for this country is a disaster and obama has piled it on and she's been there watching. >> reporter: to twitter saying how can hillary run the economy when she can't even send e-mails without putting the entire nation at risk?

this morning on both sides, the gloves are off. >> just like he shouldn't have his finger on the button, he shouldn't have his hands on our economy. [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: yeah, those attacks are flying and trump's big speech today is expected to hit on even more fronts from benghazi to donations made to the clinton foundation, but, david, the clinton campaign says they are not worried about this. >> yes, i think the general election campaign has been launched. cecilia, thanks. now my one-on-one with donald trump right after clinton's attacks among them bankrupting companies and asked trump whether average americans were hurt by that, plus, as trump takes aim at clinton later today he is weighing in on her faith and personal attacks as we ask is there anything off the table for trump going after the clintons. hillary clinton said of you that just like he shouldn't have his finger on the button, he shouldn't have his hands on our economy. >> i heard what she said. i built a great, great company. it's worth tens of -- i mean, it's just a very, very valuable

company. some of the greatest assets in the world including with what we're sitting on right here. she has a bad temperament. she would do so badly with the economy. >> she pointed to something that you have said out in the campaign trail saying i'm going to do for the country what i've done for business. but then she argued that you intentionally ran up huge amounts of debt. you bankrupted your companies not once but four times and that hundreds of jobs were lost. how are you going to respond to clinton and were average americans affected in any way by these? >> what i've done is i've used brilliantly the laws of the country and not personally just corporate and if you look at people like myself that are at the highest levels of business they've used many of them have done it many, many times. >> did any average americans pay the price? >> i'm running a business, you have to understand, for my company, my employees and for my family. >> reporter: we asked him about his newest fund-raising numbers dwarfed by clinton's. will he continue to fund his own

campaign? are you going to continue to self -- >> i may. i could do whatever i want. >> let me ask you about something else regarding hillary clinton in the last 24 hours, you have brought up her religion. saying we don't know anything about hillary in terms of religion. >> i don't know much about her, no. >> what would you like to know that you don't know -- >> nothing -- whatever it is, i just don't know. somebody asked me the question -- i didn't bring it up. somebody asked me the question. i said, i don't know much about her religion. >> reporter: lastly we asked about his speech later today. you will take on hillary clinton. in recent days i did sit down with secretary clinton and i asked her what will be off limits for her in going after you? your marriages, your personal life. she said that she will not answer personal attacks that she will run a campaign based on the issues that voters most care about so the same question for you. what will be off-limits for you in going -- >> i know why she says that and i think that's fine. that's more for her to say that i hit bill a couple of times because once he's in the campaign, you know, if he's in the campaign i guess he deserves to be hit but i would much

rather have it based on issues and policy. i think we win on issues and policy. >> reporter: and trump telling me despite hillary clinton gaining nationally in the polls he says watch ohio and pennsylvania. crucial battleground states where he points out he's still quite confident there. let's bring in jonathan karl because you heard donald trump say if bill clinton is on the trail both are fair game. he didn't sound like anything is off the table. what do you expect today? >> this will be the kitchen sink speech. he will go after hillary on everything, benghazi, the e-mails, the donations to the clinton foundation, i don't expect that he will go at the bill clinton personal stuff but will certainly go after bill clinton's record on trade, trade is essential to his campaign and sensitive to a lot of democrats. he will hit that hard. >> i asked if he will self-fund in the general election. he said he might. he raised, what, 3 million in may compared to romney raising 23 million, john mccain raising 20 million. he's up against hillary who's raised even more. are there changes coming? >> they insist this will be a

professionalized campaign. they will have to raise a heck of a lot more money. look at the numbers here, dave. this is astounding. hillary clinton has 684 staffers. he has 70. if you look at the money, you mentioned hillary clinton's raised 25 million in may. he, 3 million. he only has a million in the bank. here's the one i love. look at this. ad spending so far in the general election. 138 million for clinton in the super pacs, $363,000 for donald trump and that's just his super pac. he hasn't spent a dime on advertising. now he won the primary on the cheap. it's a lot harder to win a general election that way. >> in the meantime, clinton is trying to combine that spending on battleground ads with the speeches, are they landing, though? >> well, this speech that she gave yesterday about his business record is a much harder case to make. he's a guy that runs around flying around with an airplane with his name on it. hard to say he was an unsuccessful businessman but that is the case they'll be trying to make. >> jon karl with us. jon, thanks as always. amy. >> we turn to the very latest on the arrest of a teen from indiana who officials say was on

his way to join isis overseas and may have planned to launch attacks right here at home. abc's pierre thomas joins us with those chilling details. pierre, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, amy. fbi agents arrested akram musleh as he tried to go on a bus to new york city en route to join isis. only 18 years old. he claims musleh is a disciple of long dead anwar al awlaki and had been recently shopping for a pressure cooker like that used in the boston marathon bombings. prosecutors say he tried to recruit for isis and was conducting online searches for terror targets here at home, amy. >> and, pierre, it's hard to ignore that profile of musleh strikingly similar to the orlando killer. >> pledging allegiance to isis, also disciple of anwar al awlaki. another example the fbi says of isis' reach inside the united states, amy. >> all right, pierre thomas, thanks for that in washington. we turn to another scary moment that alerted the terrorism task force.

three people arrested, in fact, allegedly packing an arsenal of weapons in their truck. it was all discovered just outside of a major tunnel into new york, the holland tunnel where we find abc's gio benitez this morning. good morning, gio. >> reporter: david, good morning to you. a truly unusual case happening right here at the entrance to that busy holland tunnel. it's the bizarre arrest at one of new york city's busiest tunnels during rush hour monday with terrorism units on high alert the discovery of a distinctive truck filled with an arsenal of deadly weapon, seven gun, body armor, 2,000 rounds of ammunition. knives. a military grade helmet. an officer initially stopping it because of a broken windshield. >> he had the driver exit the vehicle and when the driver got out, he noticed a 45 caliber handgun on the driver's seat. >> reporter: but this morning police say the three people from pennsylvania told the officers they didn't intend to harm anyone.

instead, they wanted to rescue someone. a 16-year-old girl who they say was in a new york drug den. the truck's owner john cramsey who calls himself a rebel on facebook and owns a gun range posting these photos before the arrest with this message. this young lady from wilkes-barre is scared and wants to come home. last night she woke to find her friend's body next to her in the same bed where her friend died of another heroin overdose. the mother of one of those arrested speaking with abc news overnight. >> they weren't going out to harm anybody. they were going out to save. >> reporter: cramsey's own daughter dying of an accidental drug overdose just four months ago. he posted this video of her on his facebook while grieving. >> it'll all get better. >> i think when he lost his daughter, it just kind of broke something inside of him and it sent him on a mission to help other families. >> reporter: this morning police say they have found the 16-year-old girl cramsey was

looking for but she told them she does not need to be rescued. and we should tell you those guns were legally bought in pennsylvania but here in new jersey it is illegal to possess them so they've been charged for that and they'll face a judge later today. david. >> so much hardship in those families. horrible story all the way around. we get to lara. big developments on a story we have been following all week. >> indeed. it is that daring rescue going on right now in the south pole. a small plane on the way to save a sick researcher braving dangerous conditions in one of the most remote places in the world. abc's alex marquardt has more from london. good morning, alex. >> reporter: good morning, lara. that's right, the plane's crew has landed at the south pole and made a quick turn around. they refuelled with warm fuel. evacuated one, possibly two patients and took all back to a british research station to leave antarctica. overnight, the small rescue

plane landing successfully at the bottom of the world. a window of good weather allowing the turboprop twin otter to reach the american amundsen-scott research center where a crew member needs to be evacuated. a second person will likely come out too. the station so remote the flight so daring that just two evacuations like this have been attempted in 60 years. >> sort of the end of the earth, it is exciting to be there to start with, but then, of course, you know, you put in the variable of darkness and the extreme temperatures, you know, it makes it a bit more adventuresome. >> reporter: it's the middle of the antarctic winter, dark 24 hours a day and temperatures averaging minus 70 degrees. so cold the plane's fuel needs to be heated up. two twin otters flew from canada to chile to antarctica and one undertaking the final 1500 miles to the south pole. a bright moon helped the plane land on its skis on the ice and

snow, after preps the team had to wait for the weather. >> everything is at the mercy of the weather. one minute it can be still and you think that the weather is fine. half an hour later it can be blowing 40 knots and you can be in a blizzard. now once that twin otter lands at the british station, it will link up with the one left behind in case of emergency. they'll transfer the patient or patients quickly on to the plane and out to antarctica. lara. >> all right. they're halfway there. >> halfway there. >> incredible story and from extreme cold to extreme heat, ginger has the latest on the heat waive still bearing down on the west. >> still there in the southwest, excessive heat warnings, palm springs, vegas, well above 110. 113, phoenix and could break record, kansas city to st. louis to des moines.

we're going to talk to him live in our "hot shot" coming up. >> he has a huge following. facebook live. he can teach us something. >> absolutely. we begin with new details on the alleged murder of a young man by his fiancee. prosecutors say interrogation tapes capture her saying she wants him dead. but here's the question this morning, will the jury ever hear those words? "20/20" anchor elizabeth vargas is here. >> angelika graswald is accused of killing vince viafore. while they were out kayaking on the hudson river last spring. there is no forensic evidence and no eyewitnesses. it rests almost entirely on graswald's words during an 11-hour taped interrogation and a conversation with the detective that was not recorded and happened before she was read her rights. a state police investigator is now testifying that angelika graswald admitted to him that she took her fiance's paddle after he capsized and held it while he begged her to call 911.

the detective also testified that during their 45-minute conversation, graswald said she felt trapped by viafore and wanted to be free of his demands of sex with him and another woman. but in graswald's 11-hour taped interrogation obtained by abc news she repeatedly denies killing her fiance and says her desperate calls to 911 were real. >> i don't see him. oh, my god. >> can you see the kayak still? >> no, the kayak went underwater. oh, my god. >> reporter: but after hours and hours of questions punctuated with yoga breaks and hopscotch, graswald does finally utter these damning words. >> i wanted him dead and now he's gone. and i'm okay with it. >> i'm okay with that. >> reporter: graswald spoke to me exclusively from jail. why would you say something like that? >> well, they kept asking me the same questions like a hundred times. i knew that i was innocent.

i was at my breaking point, i had it so i just gave them what they wanted. >> reporter: at the center of the case the kayak's drain plug. prosecutors claim graswald removed it causing the kayak to take on water and sink. >> why didn't he have that plug in there. >> he didn't have it because i guess i had it. >> reporter: this is the infamous plug. >> it is. >> that prosecutors say angelika removed in a plot to kill vince but this plug is, what, half an inch in diameter. >> just look at how large the cockpit is where the seat is. there's a lot of water that can enter that. that's a big hole. this is a really small hole. >> it's a tiny hole. our experiment shows that this kayaker had no trouble crossing the hudson in an identical kayak with the plug removed. did you remove the plug from vince's kayak with an intent to kill him? >> no. i did not. >> reporter: angelika's attorney is under a gag order.

>> she did not confess to killing vince viafore and there are many reasons why he died. my client removing that drain plug was not one of them. >> reporter: graswald who pleaded not guilty still maintains she did not kill viafore. did you kill vince? >> no. >> that day? >> no. i loved him. i didn't do it. >> reporter: those questions will be critical, those interrogation tapes and the judge will decide after five days of hearings whether to admit them. >> let's bring in dan abrams as well and talk about the pretrial hearing that is specifically about angelika's statements to police, statements that are crucial. >> i think even the prosecutors would concede if they can't get in these statements they have no case. this is the case. these statements and there are two sets of statements. remember, there's first a statement that she makes before that interrogation you see on tape and that's the one where the authorities say she made even more incriminating statements and so you have a police officer basically saying,

here's what she said to me. she basically told me she did it. she told me why she did it, et cetera, but then when you get her on the interrogation tape she's not saying the sorts of things that the police officer is saying she said the first time. >> and the detective keeps saying remember you told me, remember you told me and she's like, no. and also that statement that conversation that 45-minute conversation that was not recorded was also done before she was read her rights. >> i was going to ask is that the defense's argument to keep these out. >> that's the entire argument. effectively what the defense is saying is they knew she was already a suspect. they were there to effectively meet her so they could interrogate her and as a result, the defense says, she should have been read her miranda warning before she made this statement. the police are saying, no. we were there, she was not necessarily a suspect. it was only after she made those statements to us did she become a suspect and then they did read her her miranda rights before the taped interrogation. >> although it's interesting, the one witness the defense

called in this hearing that just concluded testified that she went over three times on bannerman's island to intervene because she thought the detectives were bullying angelika, so three times she went over to say, are you okay? because that conversation that the detectives sort of portrayed as this, oh, here's -- let's have a talk on the beach. >> was actually an interrogation. >> the drain plug quickly obviously we saw that you had an expert there showing they didn't think it would sink the kayak alone. did she ever say why she removed it. >> she said she might have taken it out a few months earlier as a cat toy. the bottom line is even if you buy she wanted to kill him, killing somebody like this removing that tiny drain plug would not make that kayak go down. >> think about the risk to herself also in connection with it. >> he was a much bigger man. she was a very tiny woman. there's a lot of problems with the case. it will be interesting to see how the judge rules. >> if the judge keeps it out, the case is over. >> thanks, guys. over to you. >> fascinating case and elizabeth has been on it from the start. coming up on "gma," the big

board this morning. the latest on the hunt for polygamous leader lyle jeffs on the run now. diagnosing your ailments but dr. ashton says beware. the "gma" tweet that started a huge uproar over kermit the frog. lara, what do we do? how do we start this? >> we will get to the bottom of it. >> we will, we will, come on back. it. >> we will, we will, come on back. transform everything.

time now for our big board and our team of insiders ready to weigh in on today's top stories. the first up, the fbi stepping up its search for flds leader lyle jeffs. the polygamous sect leader on the run while waiting trial and a multimillion dollar scheme to defraud the federal government. former fbi agent brad garrett is joining us now, brad, jeffs removes his gps monitor, he goes on the run even though lots of people were warning the fbi that this is exactly what was going

to happen. what is the fbi doing to try to track him down? >> what has he stated in recent times to other cult members or people who used to be in the cult who possibly may know about safe houses. they'll look at cell phone, hard lines, the real key, what conversations has he had in recent times about fleeing? >> brad, as you know "the salt lake tribune" is reporting he had an idea the fbi was zeroing in on him. he had an elaborate escape plan. how elaborate it was and how hard do you think it's going to be to find him? >> i don't think it will be easy to find him. he has a lot of money. thousands of cult followers who are willing to hide him. apparently he last a number of safe houses. he has property in south america. his ability to secrete and move, i think, will be very, very difficult for the fbi to track and my guess is this is not going to end in any short-term time. >> i was going to say how long do you think he's on the run? what are the chances you think of finding him ever?

>> well, the key is every fugitive at some point gets sloppy. they use a phone, somebody sees them at a restaurant, there's a tip that eventually comes in, so you got to sort of stay the course if you're an investigator and eventually they'll find him. >> brad, stick with us. our next insider this morning. get ready to play doctor with google's newest feature. the symptom search and gives you a more accurate list. when searching for specific symptoms. and dr. jen ashton joining us live. jen, i do this already. >> i can see her face. >> taking a deep breath. she wants to come to the screen. >> how's that working for you david? >> well, i've got some major issues, as you know, jen. anyway you say look it up with caution, right? >> right, so first of all what this is think of google 2.0, a more sophisticated vertical search engine so it's giving you a deeper dive on your symptoms in terms of treatment, further diagnosis and management. but with caution, so the analogy

that i want to give you guys can if you are charged with murder of the first degree, would you use legalzoom as your courtroom defense? they're great for creating documents but you probably don't want them trying your criminal case so proceed with caution. >> okay, jen, so say a patient of yours comes in with their google search and says, i think i have this, what do you say or do? >> usually the patients say, doctor, it hurts when i do this and the doctors say don't do that. look, i say information and education is great but being a doctor or a health professional is so much more than just entering something into a keyboard and getting an answer back. if that's as simple as it was to get an m.d., that would be awesome. remember that medicine 101 doing what we call a history, talking to the patient. that you can definitely do on your keyboard and then physical exam. when your keyboard or computer can jump through and examine you, that will be breaking news. >> not to mention what it does

to you psychologically when you google this stuff. you have to be careful at home. >> 100% because anxiety can be just as bad as the symptom you're searching. >> i think we all know what that feels like. dr. jen, thanks so much. now to the kermit kerfuffle resulting from a tweet about a tea lizard. this came from our show and it's blowing up the internet literally becky worley joins us and, becky, i had to be explained this story like in a 30-minute debrief. i'm not sure i still understand. can you do it for me? >> he's not a lizard. >> no, i will give it my best. so yesterday we asked viewers to tweet their favorite memes in response to the lebron james crying meme. we included a picture of a very famous meme that includes kermit the frog. the controversy came when we put in the #tealizard. the internet responded forcefully. 25,000 tweets today with that hashtag including one that says, we gave the lizard birther movement credence.

a tweet of solidarity from the geico gecko. even celebrities getting into the mix, ryan phillippe saying, in tea lizard we trust. >> i read one that says i blame "gma." i want off this planet. >> wow. >> where did #tealizard come from, becky? >> well, jeff in our social team and these are real people who run the team, not done by committee. jeff saw a joke on a meme and memes are jokes and they grow and live. he slapped a hashtag on it, tea lizard and there you go. it's kind of funny but, guys, i'm speaking for all of "good morning america," all of abc, possibly all of disney, it is not okay to throw shade at kermit the frog, a frog, an amphibian not a reptile of any kind. >> kermit responded himself. >> oh, yes, right here i have a breaking news statement from kermit. he says, i appreciate the outcry of public support. i also want to make clear that many of my closest friends

around the world and especially here in hollywood are lizards, snakes and reptiles. working together with "gma" -- he was a correspondent for us, you know, we vow to continue to raise awareness of this important issue of species identity. we will never give up. we will never say croak. >> he's still smiling. he's okay. >> i feel like i understand this now. thank you. you did such a good job. i appreciate it and we now know to never use the #tealizard. >> you can't google that. >> i think it's gender bias because where is miss piggy in this whole thing. >> that's tomorrow and what's the hashtag. coming up next -- >> we have the superstar who owns facebook live. we're talking about the hoff and what is his latest obsession coming up in just two minutes. in just two minutes. ve eyebrow? why do people put milk on cereal? oh, are you reading why people put milk on cereal? why does your tummy go "grumbily, grumbily, grumbily"?

talking to bethenny frankel. >> i am. i spy with my little eye miss bethenny frankel in the studio. she's had a bit of a health scare, though, that she's opening up about. it's something that a lot of women face. but she's got a great message about finding out what's wrong, what questions to ask your doctor. of course, we'll dish about the "housewives." always looking forward to talking to her. >> she's always been so candid when she stops by. can't wait for that. let's first turn to amy with the morning rundown. good morning, everyone. the big story this morning, donald trump and hillary clinton exchanging some of the fiercest attacks yet. in a speech today, trump expected to slam clinton on everything from her e-mails to trade policies to isis. he is also taking aim at former president clinton and donations made to the clinton foundation. this all comes a day after clinton blasted trump calling him dangerous for the economy and mocking his bankruptcies. during a one-on-one interview with david, trump defended his business acumen. >> to what i've done is i've used brilliantly the laws of the country, and not personally, just corporate, and if you look at people like myself that are

at the highest levels of business, they've -- many of them have done it many, many times. i built a great, great company. it's worth tens -- i mean, it's just a very, very valuable company, some of the greatest assets in the world including with what we're sitting on right here. >> meanwhile, trump is facing another challenge. his campaign staff right now nearly ten times smaller than hillary clinton's staff. well, north korea has fired two more ballistic missiles in violation of u.n. sanctions. one missile traveled about 250 miles, which is more than halfway to japan. it could be a sign that north korea is making progress developing missiles to reach bases in the pacific. back here in this country, more than a dozen wildfires are blazing across seven states. hundreds of firefighters suffering through blistering heat to battle two fires that are threatening to merge near los angeles. so far 800 homes have been evacuated. and the search is resuming off florida's gulf coast for a man and his three teenage children missing after they set sail from sarasota.

they were last heard from on sunday when their boat was struggling in six-foot seas. well, an alaska airlines flight from portland, oregon, was diverted to seattle tuesday after police say a passenger tried to kiss a 16-year-old girl sitting next to him. it's the second time in recent days that a flight had to be diverted for an alleged assault. last week an american airlines passenger was charged with groping a 13-year-old who was traveling alone. well, some new insight into the final days of prince's life. singer judith hill tells "the new york times" she was on the plane the night prince passed out from an apparent overdose just days before his death. she says she had never seen anything like that happen to him during the time they spent together. hill said prince kept his pain a secret from her and appeared to be on the right path seeking help in the days before his death. and finally, one man in utah is trying to find his son a wife the old-fashioned way, in the newspaper. he actually spent $900 on this

full page ad using the headline "looking for a wife." he specified the age, the height, the political leanings that his future daughter-in-law should have. his son who is 48, admits he's a little embarrassed by the ad but says he doesn't want to hurt his dad's feelings. couldn't hurt to see if it works. also very specific, he wants children asap, this according to the father who said he'd like a grandson to carry on the family name. anyone out there with the correct -- >> i wonder how many responses they've had so far. >> quite a few. he's meeting a couple in a hotel this weekend. >> at a hotel? >> well, that's what -- they're meeting at a hotel this weekend. yes, so you know what, if they want to have kids soon -- sorry. >> okey-dokey. >> shall we get to "pop news"? >> sure. >> what's popping? >> this is actually a story everyone is talking about. selma blair, did you hear this, apologizing this morning for a midair meltdown. blair you can see pictured on a flight here courtesy of tmz carried off the plane on a

stretcher following a rather bizarre rant. it was during a flight home from mexico. she was with her son and her ex-boyfriend and the actress who recently starred as kris jenner in "the people v. o.j. simpson: american crime story" that was on fx says she mixed alcohol with some medication, never a great idea. that caused her to black out and say things that she did not mean. blair adds that she takes the incident seriously, apologizing to the passengers, the crew, thanking those who helped her in the aftermath. >> she's so talented, so let's hope this is a one-off kind of thing. >> an unfortunate incident but it is popping as we say. then also in "pop news" this morning, an exclusive reveal here in "pop news." "the hollywood reporter"'s first ever 100 most powerful people in hollywood and topping the list there he is, bob iger. the ceo of our parent company, disney. iger spearheaded a big year that included the release of "star wars: the force awakens" and the opening of shanghai disneyland.

robin just showed us that firsthand. he is joined on the list by super producers shonda rhimes, oprah winfrey as well as influential a-listers like leo dicaprio and jennifer lawrence and, oh, ben sherwood, the president of disney abc television group and we want to congratulate all of the 100 hollywood power brokers. >> i like how you said that oprah style. >> yeah, well, i was just -- i was channeling it. congrats to ben and to everybody. >> yes. and then finally an amazing dad, an incredible act of love touching hearts around the globe this morning. this photo of josh marshall and his 8-year-old son gabriel sporting matching scars. it's going viral, but dad's is actually a tattoo. he got it to match his son's scar that was left behind by surgery for a brain tumor. dad wanted to boost his son's confidence when the little boy told him he felt like a monster. he said if people want to stare, they can stare at both of them. >> chills. >> chills. >> that's just amazing. beautiful. >> that is a beautiful story.

dad, a job well done. and that is "pop news." >> "pop news." that was a nice story. >> ending on a high note. all right, jesse has the "morning menu." hey, jesse. >> that's right. here's what's ahead coming up. could you be fooled by fake detergent? people counterfeiting your favorite store brand and selling it at fund-raisers in social media. how to avoid getting duped. the big "star wars" movie, the new secrets and the classic kids that's coming back for more. we got that coming up. plus, "gma" exclusive, bethenny frankel on coping with a health scare and the advice she's got for other women all coming up live from "gma" right here in times square. you know, meeting the residents and i had a gentleman stop me and ask me if i made his dinner. he had lost his wife recently, but i didn't know that. he made a remark to me about not sure he wanted to be there anymore, but he said something to me that has stuck with me to this day. after having your dinner, i think i want to stick around a while and that really meant something to me.

>> i have to go and i have to do a surgery. >> oh, my god. >> but it's like three days in the hospital. >> it was a wake-up call. the doctor told me that i had lost almost 10% of my blood. i was really anemic and low in iron and the fibroids are huge and i need to get them removed surgically. >> most of it is there. >> yeah, most of it is there. >> most of it is there, i was saying. i don't have to tell you everything because a lot of it is there. >> fibroids. something 26 million women deal with. >> yeah, but not that many people talk about it, and i think it's something that most women or many women have but don't get to the point where you have to have them removed. i suffered from a lot of female problems, cysts and i had endometriosis. >> i remember that. >> and now was told it probably caused my miscarriage a couple of years ago, so just the bleeding was so excessive and i was so weak and i felt like i looked so haggard and had such black circles under my eyes that

i had to take care of it and it was confusing. >> i was reading that you were taping the show, you were in home goods of all places and started to bleed and that's why you had to talk about it. it wasn't like a decision. it was just part of -- >> it was part of the show and it was affecting the way i was acting on the show and i was very stressed and i couldn't hear something that luann was talking about. i just felt like zoned out because when you're iron deficient and lost so much of your blood, you're depleted and i felt terrible. i'm still cold a lot. >> i saw you when you were off camera putting on your sweater. there's a feeling of cloudiness. >> yes, definitely, dizziness, cloudiness, you feel off and i'm not good at kind of being the patient, the victim, the weak one and so it was challenging on the show and some of the girls were really supportive. it was really -- >> i noticed you said some of the girls. >> yes. well, not -- >> it wouldn't be "housewives" if all of them were -- >> the women were supportive and women supporting women is amazing. >> critical. >> yes, so it's been a crazy

time. i had the surgery on may 20th and it's a six-week recovery in the hospital for three days and it's kind of brutal. i didn't realize it. >> so how are you today? >> i feel good. i think the way that you were recover is important. the way you take care of yourself and drinking more water and everyone thinks because i have a brand called skinny girl that, you know, i'm all focused on health all the time and i'm not, i'm stressed. i'm a mom just like anyone else, but since the surgery, i was drinking green juices and eating more vegetarian foods and trying to just like eat healing foods and i did go to school for food and healing, so i tried to really exercise that and i think that's why the recovery has been more quick than my doctors said. >> is that it? is it done now? >> i think it's done. i know there's a lot of women watching. i have to start menstruating again and see how that works. it was a myoectomy which is a surgery where they took the fibroids out and found kind of gigantic fibroids in there. i made them take a picture as
