breaking news, an urgent manhunt. one police officer is dead. another shot. helicopters and s.w.a.t. teams moving in. the search for suspects is on right now. flash flood alert in the northeast. 20 million facing a dangerous commute this morning as severe storms hit from colorado to chicago. winds up to 85 miles an hour. emergency rescues in pennsylvania. eight states in the flood zone right now. and free fall. the daredevil about to make the leap of his life. 25,000 feet, but, wait, no parachute, just a net to catch him. is this the craziest stunt ever? good morning, america. history making moment for hillary clinton last night. her shout-out to all women. the emotional high point of her speech. those balloons helped too. and there's the whole clinton family back on that stage again. president clinton right there but this time accepting a

nomination for hillary. >> her daughter chelsea calling her mom a, quote, fighter who never gives up, and mom was watching her daughter deliver that speech backstage, and then she took the stage herself giving her own tough speech calling out donald trump, the republican nominee not wasting any time firing back overnight. >> it is on. i don't think it's ever been off. 101 days until the election. both candidates back on the trail right now. the debates to come, and abc's cecilia vega is in philadelphia with all the highlights from hillary's moment, good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: george, good morning to you. the stage is set for a general election showdown but check out the stage behind me. this cleanup went on all night long. you know, i was right there last night next to that stage and i've got to tell you it really looked like hillary clinton was trying to take all of this in trying to remember this moment in history. ♪ say what you want to say >> reporter: there on that stage balloons, confetti and hillary clinton making history. >> and so my friends it is with

humility, determination and boundless confidence in america's promise that i accept your nomination for president of the united states. >> reporter: the nomination now hers and clinton is waging a general election fight against one man. >> imagine if you dare -- imagine -- imagine him in the oval office facing a real crisis, a man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons. >> reporter: in the biggest speech of her political career, clinton mentioning donald trump by name 21 times. >> so just ask yourself, do you really think donald trump has the temperament to be commander in chief? donald trump can't even handle the rough and tumble of a presidential campaign. >> reporter: but inside that convention hall, she had another fight on her hands.

clinton trying to extend an olive branch to bernie sanders supporters. >> i've heard you. your cause is our cause. our country needs your ideas, energy and passion. >> reporter: their chants repeatedly interrupting her speech. [ crowd chanting ] >> reporter: clinton supporters trying to shout them down but this was also a family affair. daughter chelsea doing the introduction. >> i hope that my children will someday be as proud of me as i am of my mom. and, mom, grandma would be so, so proud of you tonight. >> reporter: a hug between mother and daughter, bill clinton looking on with tears in his eyes and hillary clinton emotional as she took it all in. >> when any barrier falls in america, it clears the way for everyone.

after all, when there are no ceilings, the sky's the limit. >> reporter: i don't know if you can hear it but they're still popping balloons. hillary clinton today has a big rally here in philly and then she and her vp pick tim kaine head out on a bus tour to these battleground states of pennsylvania and ohio, robin and george, you guys said it, 101 days, here we go. >> and we are counting. >> yeah. but now to donald trump. the republican nominee wasting no time attacking hillary clinton's speech overnight and now saying his call for russia to find and release her e-mails, well, he says he was just being sarcastic. abc's tom llamas has more. good morning, tom. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. trump definitely changing his tune on the russian hack and sending his rebuttal to last night's speech via twitter saying no one has worst judgment than hillary clinton.

overnight, donald trump firing back at hillary clinton and the chorus of anti-trump speeches that made up the final night of the democratic convention. the trump campaign calling her primetime speech an insulting collection of cliches and a speech delivered from a fantasy universe. and trump launching a tweet storm, six tweets in ten minutes, trump tweeting, hillary's vision is a borderless world where working people have no power, no jobs, no safety. and as trump takes on the democrats, he's also trying to explain his way out of this. >> russia, if you're listening, i hope you're able to find the 30,000 e-mails that are missing. i think you will probably be rewarded mightily by our press. >> reporter: trump now saying he wasn't inviting russian hackers to hack hillary clinton's e-mails, but just being, quote, sarcastic. >> obviously i was being sarcastic and a lot of people

really smiled and laughed. it was said in a sarcastic manner, obviously. >> reporter: but trump originally stood by his call for the russian hack when pressed during that news conference. >> i hope they do. they probably have her 33,000 e-mails that she lost and deleted because you'd see some beauties there, so let's see. >> reporter: trump now also facing questions about another statement he made during that same news conference on wednesday. >> i have nothing to do with putin. i've never spoken to him. i don't know anything about him other than he will respect me. >> reporter: but in 2014 trump said this about putin. >> i was in russia, i was in moow recently, and i spoke indirectly and directly with president putin, who could not have been nicer. and we had a tremendous success. >> reporter: in iowa, trump asked about his recent statements concerning russia and how voters are supposed to know when to take him for his word. >> i think people understand that very -- i think it's pretty understandable. >> reporter: and that's

understandable. we should also mention trump is wrapping up one of his busiest weeks on the trail. traditionally when campaigns take time off during the opposing party's convention, trump hit several battleground states. today he's in colorado. >> there's nothing traditional. >> nothing traditional that's right, robin. let's bring in our political team. jon karl here with me and matthew dowd, cecilia joins us. matt, we talked last night. we talked about how hillary clinton had to thread a needle between stressing her experience, hope, optimism, but also addressing that anger of so many americans that think the country is on the wrong track. did she do it? >> absolutely, george. i think this is going to be the whole fight of this campaign. we're now turning from these conventions, which we're going to have two conventions, we'll probably go back to a race that's close with hillary with a slight lead and the key voters are those that don't like and don't trust either one of these candidates and who think the country is off on the wrong direction and that is where the battle of this race is going to be.

>> and we saw it last night, jon karl, she was really trying to disqualify donald trump. she talked about him being baited by a tweet but she was trying to bait him. 21 mentions in one speech. >> yeah, no doubt. and the central argument here is that he doesn't have the temperament to be president going right at that portraying him as a megalomaniac who flies off at the least provocation, and then provided a lot of provocation, i think, hoping that he will basically prove her point in how she reacts to this. >> you know, there were many powerful speeches last night. in addition to hillary clinton. probably the most, khizr khan, his son a captain in the army killed. here was mr. khan last night. >> donald trump consistently smears the character of muslims. let me ask you, have you even read the united states constitution? i will gladly lend you my copy. >> cecilia, he said donald trump wouldn't have let his son in the

country. his son made the ultimate sacrifice. he said donald trump will sacrifice nothing for anyone. one of a line of speakers last night who were really going directly at donald trump. >> reporter: george, you're right, george. and that speech went over huge here, a standing ovation in this hall and it's huge online too. hillary clinton is setting this up to be a moment of reckoning and she is going to use that with these surrogates and heard her. she mentioned trump's name 22 times in that speech. >> and, matt dowd, we are back down to the final 100 days and you talked about what each candidate has to do. where do you see this going with the debates? >> look, george, it's funny. we have gone from the city of brotherly love that became the city of sisterly love last night and now we're going into the 100-day war. the fear is, this is going to become an all-out negative battle and both candidates' desire to cancel out each other

and it's really going to be a mystery in the course of this. >> okay, guys, thanks very much. and i'm sitting down with donald trump, heading out to colorado. first interview after the democratic convention. you can see it on "this week" this sunday right here on abc. >> all right, george, we'll be watching. now to that breaking news overnight, two officers shot in san diego. one of them killed. the other recovering in the hospital right now. a suspect is in custody and officers across the country on alert after the recent shootings. abc's phillip mena has the latest. >> reporter: a massive manhunt under way this morning after a san diego police officer killed and another critically injured overnight. >> we have two officers down. >> reporter: the shooting took place at 11:00 p.m. as the officers made a routine stop. >> officers are working on getting the downed victims out of here. the shot is definitely a handgun. >> reporter: s.w.a.t. teams and helicopters rushed to the scene. >> the suspect is going to be close by. we need responding officers to lock down the perimeter and start look for somebody hiding. >> reporter: one suspect taken

into custody. other possible suspects being sought as residents are urged to stay in their homes. the shooting comes as police on high alert throughout the country following the killing of officers in dallas and baton rouge. we've learned the officer who was killed was a father of two. the other officer is out of surgery and is expected to survive. this morning, a massive search under way for a possible second suspect, george. >> okay, phillip, thanks very much. now to that flash flood alert in the northeast, there's flooding already in pennsylvania, and it's now causing a messy commute for millions this morning. you see that rescue right there. ginger is in a rainy times square with the latest. >> george, we are part of that millions. the dangerous flash flooding happening right now. look at this video from brooklyn just an hour or so ago just happening at this moment. don't drive into water. don't do what these folks are doing. because it is dangerous anywhere from colorado to maine this morning. overnight, ferocious winds and sheets of rain stretching from midwest to northeast.

in kansas, winds gusting to 85 miles per hour. poor visibility forcing drivers to pull over and wait it out. rain sweeping into chicago almost two inches falling in just one hour. trees peeling from the ground and in chester, pennsylvania, firefighters rescuing two people from their flooded car. but in ohio, it was two firefighters in a rescue boat that flipped in the turbulent water. >> water is always moving. it's not like a fire that you can put out. >> reporter: in colorado, drivers pelted by golf ball-size hail. so much hail in colorado springs, it was plowable. so it's been this rain falling fast, 1 to 2 inches in an hour and this is who has to look out, this morning, flash flood watches from delaware and maryland up through coastal massachusetts, and here's how the storm is going to move out by this afternoon. you finally see some drying until tomorrow night when we get another round of it. a quick look at what's happening and the severe weather coming up

in just a couple of minutes, and then out to the park so we'll head back in right now to you, george. >> that is a huge umbrella. >> gigantic, right? >> huge. glad that you have it. all right, ginger, thank you. now to the growing concern over the zika virus. the fda is asking multiple florida blood centers to stop collecting blood as they investigate new cases of the mosquito-borne virus that may not be travel related. abc's gio benitez is here and has the latest on all that. good morning, gio. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. the fda sending that urgent letter to all blood centers in two counties asking for those blood donations to stop immediately. this, after new serious concerns that those mosquitoes are in the country right now. this morning, after going door to door in south florida neighborhoods, the florida health department believes that a high likelihood that it's been transmitted locally. >> we've got to stay active with this. >> reporter: the new fear that zika-transmitting mosquitoes

could now be in the u.s. abc news in florida just last week for a ride along with mosquito control as they spray the affected areas and collect samples from as many people as possible. if a pregnant woman is infected with zika there is a chance the baby is born with severe developmental issues. until now, people with zika in the u.s. have only acquired the virus by travel to a country with zika mosquitoes or by sex with someone who has traveled and been infected. neither one of those scenarios has been ruled out in any of the florida cases. >> get rid of all standing water around your house, cover yourself up when you're outside. use repellent. take this seriously. we can stop the spread of zika if we're active in doing it. >> reporter: if confirmed it would mean zika has officially entered the u.s. no doubt a huge concern and it could take some time before we know exactly how those people were infected. it is a big concern, robin. >> absolutely so, gio, thank you. but now to amy with the

morning's other headlines and details about that out-of-control california wildfire. that's right, the major wildfire in northern california has now exploded in size threatening thousands of homes. the 42-square-mile blaze is burning near popular tourist areas in big sur and it's already destroyed 40 homes. the smoke can be seen from space and it's expected to take another month to fully contain that fire. well, pope francis made a somber pilgrimage to the nazi death camp of auschwitz in poland. he entered the camp alone on foot, then sat and prayed for the 1.1 million people executed there. the pontiff also met some survivors greeting them one by one. north korea says putting leader kim jong-un on its list of sanctioned individuals, the u.s. has effectively declared war and the country is warning that a showdown could erupt if the u.s. and south korea hold their annual joint military exercises as planned next month. well, more criminal charges are expected today in the aftermath of the flint water crisis. the water became contaminated with lead after the city switched to the flint river in a cost-cutting move.

three officials have been charged so far. one of them pled guilty and is now helping the investigation. well, a suspected criminal may never have been so happy to see the police. officers in ft. worth, texas, pulled him out of a burning car that bravery captured on their body cameras. the man crashed after a high-speed chase trying to get away from those very officers. he is now facing charges. and another dramatic rescue played out on social media in colorado. cupcake the horse fell into knee-deep water and could not get up. a rescue crew of 30 people including a vet jumped into action eventually helping her back up on her feet. the crew live-tweeted the rescue and the #savecupcake trended nationwide. and finally, a tourist attraction meant only for the bravest among us is now open. it's a glass bottom walkway outside the 88th floor of a skyscraper in shanghai. notice how there are no handrails.

so, yeah, anyone brave enough or crazy enough to go out there has to be secured by a safety harness. in return you get a view of the city from more than 1100 feet off the ground. i just wouldn't look down. it's $58 to scare the heck out of yourself. >> you pay to do that? >> you pay to do that, george. you couldn't pay me to do it. >> okay, we got to go back to ginger. rain here in the east. heat and fires in the west. >> and amy just gave up that update on the sand fire. but, remember that is one of now 27 large wildfires including alaska out west so i had to give you a fire forecast quickly. although the temperatures are cooling a bit the wind is going up. not so great for the fires.

a decade. charges dropped against the man convicted of killing chandra levy reigniting the question who murdered the d.c. intern? and the man about to leap from a plane with no parachute from 25,000 feet. is this one of the craziest stunts ever? >> oh, yeah. and i'm michael howard. we left on our honeymoon in january 2012. it actually evolved into a business. from our blog to video editing... our technology has to hang tough with us.

years and years on the show. the big question is, is it because of their age? we're going to take that on coming up next in our big board. >> all right, we will. but first in this half hour that new twist in the murder of chandra levy. the case rocked the nation as you know 15 years ago after levy was romantically linked to congressman gary condit. he was questioned, ruled out as a suspect. now, prosecutors suddenly dropping charges against the man who was later convicted in the killing. abc's david wright has much more on this. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, robin. this is a stunning development. it throws this 15-year-old murder case wide open again and it's a case that brought down a congressman, but prosecutors have dropped all the charges against the man who was ultimately convicted because a key witness now admits he lied. who killed chandra levy? the 24-year-old washington intern who disappeared in d.c.'s rock creek park in the summer of 2001, the case was a national obsession. but it turns out the murderer was likely not ingomar

guandique, an undocumented immigrant from el salvador who was convicted based on a jailhouse confession. guandique protested his innocence and passed an fbi lie detector test. his conviction later set aside. a retrial set. but prosecutors are now asking all charges be dropped due to recent unforeseen developments that were investigated over the past week. >> congressman condit, do you know what happened to chandra levy? >> no, i do not. >> reporter: levy's disappearance and murder caused her former married boyfriend his career. california congressman gary condit, a powerful california democrat told abc's connie chung he was not involved in her death. >> did you have anything to do with her disappearance? >> no, i didn't. >> did you say anything or do anything that could have caused her to drop out of sight? >> you know, chandra and i never had a crossword. >> do you have any idea if there was anyone who wanted to harm her? >> no. >> did you cause anyone to harm her? >> no. >> did you kill chandra levy?

>> i did not. >> reporter: but in may as the retrial approached, guandique's lawyers petitioned the court to raise new allegations about condit's alleged fondness for rough sex claiming a sex act gone wrong may have resulted in levy's death. overnight, condit's lawyer issued a statement saying gary condit was extremely disappointed the prosecution has decided against a retrial. the failure of authorities to bring formal closure to this tragedy after 15 years is very disappointing, but in no way alters the fact that mr. condit was long ago completely exonerated by authorities in connection with ms. levy's death, he said. levy's mother and father are devastated. >> my wish is that the right person whoever did what they did to my daughter, we get answers. >> reporter: well, gary condit's lawyer says he expects his client will speak publicly on this case in the near future. condit, of course, left congress in disgrace more than a decade

ago returning to public life. prosecutors have never named him as a suspect and they are not saying he's a suspect now, robin. >> all right, thank you very much. and to talk more about this, abc news chief legal analyst dan abrams. so tell us why charges were dropped. >> this is a really big deal. this was a guy tried and convicted already for this crime. and now, the u.s. attorney coming forward and saying, we're not going to try him again. why? because they obviously have no faith in their key witness. this case was all about one witness and that is a prison informant. the reason that first conviction was overturned is because it turns out that informant hadn't told the truth about past contacts with law enforcement. it sounds like now these u.s. attorneys have lost even more faith in this same witness who was their key witness in the case. >> but this is still an unusual step here and it seemed like they did have other evidence. >> the other evidence they had was primarily other crimes he

had pled guilty to in the same area attacking women, right? he seems like the perfect kind of defend. this is a guy who's done stuff like this in the same area. the problem is, there was never any physical evidence linking him to the crime. so you needed this key witness, this prison informant, and if he's lost all credibility now and that's got to be the reason that the u.s. -- it is such a big deal for a u.s. attorney in a case like this so high profile to just say, you know what, we're not going to try them again, we're done. >> and we heard from her parents. your heart just goes out to them because you're wondering after all these years, is it ever going to be solved? >> and it probably won't be now. i mean, that's the incredibly heartbreaking thing for the family as i'm sure all they want is closure. they just want to know that this is over and i don't think this case is now ever going to be officially solved. >> all right, dan, thank you. >> okay, robin. we're going to move on now to a real-life leap of faith. a california skydiver planning to jump from 25,000 feet without a parachute or wingsuit hoping to land in a net.

abc's kayna whitworth sat down with him before tomorrow's big jump to find out why. good morning, kayna. >> reporter: george, good morning. everybody thinks this is crazy, even luke aikins himself. he told me that when they first asked him to do this, he laughed. but now he is attempting the impossible. >> yeah, luke. >> reporter: he's the daredevil family man with over 18,000 jumps to his name. >> i was born to fly. >> reporter: but the stunt the 42-year-old is taking on tomorrow is enough to make even a seasoned thrill-seeker cringe. you will not have a parachute. you will not have a wingsuit. you will just have this. oh, kind of like a race car driver. >> exactly. >> reporter: aikins will jump out of an airplane saturday night live on tv from 25,000 feet. twice as high as a normal skydive with no parachute. there is no parachute back here. free-falling for 126 seconds relying solely on wind currents and his own strength to land on

this 100x100-foot net, one-third the size of a football field. >> so right here this puts me right in the middle. this is where i'm aiming. >> reporter: it will be suspended 200 feet above the southern california desert. the tv event dubbed heaven sent -- >> this is the real net that we're going to use. i don't want this to stretch. >> because you don't want to bounce out. aikins, a third generation skydiver made his first tandem jump at age 12. and helped train some of the world's most elite skydivers, even did some of the stunts for the blockbuster movie "iron man 3." >> and how many times have you jumped in the last six months? >> i have roughly over 200 jumps training for this and we had to have so many jumps in a row to be able to say we're really going to do it. >> reporter: six months of preparation coming down to one moment of truth. what makes you the most nervous? >> i have a wife and son and i plan to be around for a long time.

>> reporter: inside his helmet, he has a computer that tells him his altitude and his speed and, george, his wife and son will be at that event. >> ooh. >> they're going to be there, okay, kayna, thanks very much. >> we wish him the best. coming up next on the big board, new clues in the mysterious disappearance of that huge passenger jet. what officials say they found in the pilot's home and then some of "sesame street's" most famous stars let go. is it a case of age discrimination? and then, tom brady sidelined, but a new star is emerging. will he become the nfl's next big thing. we're back with our experts in just two minutes. with our experts in two minutes. she'll be binge-studyin. now she writes mostly in emoji. soon, she'll type the best essays in the entire 8th grade. today, the only spanish words he knows are burrito and enchilada. soon, he'll take notes en espanol. get back to great with the right gear. from the place with the experts. office depot officemax.

where the plane is believed to have landed or crashed. steve ganyard joins us with more. steve, you've been following this story for a long time. what are they telling you about this? it sure is suspicious. >> it is, george. this points to the so-called nightmare scenario, which is that this pilot deliberately planned to fly 239 people into the deepest reaches of the indian ocean and that that airplane would never be found. so the whole idea that there was some sort of mechanical failure, those theories have not held up, and now that we see that he was actually practicing to fly that airplane into the indian ocean it's another piece of the puzzle that suggests that it was murder/suicide. >> wow, very chilling. steve, does this have impact? what does it mean for the search for that wreckage going forward? >> well, the search area has been predetermined and we're running out of time and we're running out of space. that search area was predicated on the idea that somebody was unconscious. that there was nobody at the controls at the time when the airplane ran out of gas. but this nightmare scenario has the idea that the pilot was actually going to ditch the airplane, did sort of a sully

sullenberger landing the airplane on the water, and the idea behind that is that he wanted to minimize wreckage. he wanted to minimize the number of pieces that could be found. thus creating the mystery of never finding this airplane and never understanding why he did it or what he intended to do? >> wow, for all those families who want answers, we certainly hope they get them. thanks for being with us, steve. and now to some not-so-sunny days on "sesame street." bob, luis and gordon are all getting the ax. the three original cast members announcing they will not be returning for the upcoming season of the famous children's show and now, as you might imagine, accusations of age discrimination are flying. larry hackett, former editor-in-chief of "people" magazine, is here with more. and this is a huge change and a lot of fans are really upset. this is their first season on hbo. what is the network's explanation for the firings? >> well, they say they're always retooling the show and they say that they are changing the curriculum. they do this all the time.

bob mcgrath, when he announced this back in july, said he was told they're trying to make the show more tech savvy and bob and gordon and luis don't fit in with that. people are upset their childhoods are ending. this is like their childhood house is getting renovated. bob has been on since 1969. >> this was his 45th season. >> it's really incredible and the other two had been on several years later. so i think people who grew up with this show, whether themselves or their children are upset. they're insisting that this has nothing to do with the shift to hbo, or going from 60 minutes to 30 minutes, it's just part of an evolution of the program. >> i guess those people aren't the audience right now so will it impact the show? >> i don't think so. what would impact the show and what remains to be seen. you have to remember, bob and luis and gordon, these character, rita moreno, this was a pioneer in multicultural casting, right, and this neighborhood, that street looked like an inner-city street and it was for all kinds of children, disadvantaged children and people are concerned about not

only is their childhood memories but whether this maintains that multicultural aspect. >> exactly. they've been here, "sesame street" has come to "gma" so many times and one of our favorite moments. can we play it? >> this is your first time, huh. >> well, i thought it was time to meet my hero, george stephanopoulos. wait a minute. stephanopoulos. snuffleupagus we might be related. >> good point. >> none of those lovable characters -- >> why he isn't on every friday? >> good point. >> i was actually bummed when he came on. we met years before and he had forgotten. >> that's what celebrity does to you. >> right, larry, thanks a lot for coming on. we are going to move on now to the quarterback at new england patriots training camp. jimmy garoppolo set to fill brady's shoes. how do you think he'll do?

>> well, we'll see. i tell you what, it's never ideal to lose your quarterback especially one like tom brady. but if this is a test, jimmy has the ultimate cheat sheet. i mean, he's got an embarrassment of riches on offense and, oh, by the way, coached by the best coach in nfl history. perfect situation to prove himself. >> skills on the field but a lot of people have been talking about his charisma, as well. >> yeah, a lot of people have. they're looking at this as could he be a brady 2.0 situation. look, i know tom brady makes it look easy with the chiseled looks, the supermodel wife, the multiple mvps and multiple super bowls, but these are awfully big cleats to fill. so, if you're jimmy, all you're trying to do is not crash the million-dollar ferrari. >> he's nice to look at. someone else gets a shot but tom brady will be back. >> he'll be back and a lot are wondering could this be a repeat of when tom brady took over for drew bledsoe.

this is a little bit different because robert kraft and bill belichick consider tom brady like a son so i don't think they're ready to replace their favorite son just yet. >> all right. >> thank you, guys. thanks to all of you. coming up -- it's not just the candidates going head-to-head but the conventions and all the numbers, even tinder hitting a high. >> huh? >> only t.j. holmes can explain that. moms know their kids need love. and encouragement. they also know milk is a nutrient powerhouse. with 8 grams of natural protein, plus 8 other essential nutrients. it's no surprise 9 out of 10 u.s. olympians grew up drinking milk. moms know kids grow strong when they milk life. ashley went to lowe's to ctheir curated bath collections helped her bring the perfect look together. oh. one sec. my shell phone's ringing. hey girl hey.

system better than me, which is why i alone can fix it. what were the delegates up to during the conventions? let's start with the democrats. yelp gave us this number. so, what were the democrats up? they were trying to get their drank on. 74% increase in the search for distilleries during the convention there in philly, so what were the republicans up to? well, strangely there was a 623% increase in hawaiian food. there might be a reason for that that i can explain possibly later. but what were they looking for in these two cities? they were looking for love. so tinder, the use for tinder was up 54% in philly. cleveland, the republicans got you, 82% increase in tinder use. so i know there's a lot of talk about music and whatnot at these conventions. >> come on over here, t.j. >> maybe the theme music for both candidates coming out should have been marvin gaye's "let's get it on." everybody was looking for love. >> they were looking for love? >> what's the hawaiian food thing? >> easy. >> you know what, cleveland, everybody knows there's no

hawaiian food so if six people look for hawaiian food it will be a big increase. >> what about the distilleries, is that bars? >> yeah, bars, fancy liquor places, something like that, i don't know. i wasn't looking. i got my liquor store early. i was good. >> always a good time. coming up in our next hour, are you ready for this? the u.s. women's olympic basketball team is going to be here live, there they are. we'll talk to them in our last half hour. and blake shelton opening up about his relationships, plus one of the hottest artists of the summer james bay performing live in central park. coming up "gma's" summer concert series presented by king's hawaiian. irresistible since 1950. king's hawaiian. irresistible since 1950. you sh. you stay up. you listen. you laugh. you worry. you do whatever it takes to take care of your family. and when it's time to plan for your family's future, we're here for you. we're legalzoom, and for over 10 years we've helped

>> and good morning, amy. not all but some of that criticism directly linked to his "american sniper" role. but, you know, you don't have to look far on either end of the political spectrum to reconfirm that actors get paid to play people they're different from. with an invitation to a 2014 white house state dinner, and with a $750 donation to hillary clinton's 2008 campaign, it's not as though bradley cooper has been hiding his political affiliation. yet, he's been catching a little social media flack this week from the right expressing disappointment that he's at the dnc taking place in his hometown of pennsylvania. one person tweeting bradley cooper, how could you possibly play the hero chris kyle so well and then surround yourself with anti-americans? another tweet calling him just another from hollywoody. what i saw in the movie was the meaning of a hero chris kyle. other consternation not directly connected to this role. >> to the kid.

>> reporter: cooper as the late navy s.e.a.l. chris kyle in "american sniper." seems like some folks are just bummed. one tweeting bradley cooper at dnc? guess i've seen my last bradley cooper movie. of course, whether he's an fbi agent. >> richie dimaso, fbi, nice to meet you. >> reporter: or a talking squirrel. >> oh, yeah. >> reporter: bradley cooper is an actor. his job is to portray people that he is not. and he's not alone. >> for actors they absolutely love the challenge of playing against type and playing different people than themselves. >> reporter: meryl streep who spoke on hillary clinton's behalf, won a 2011 oscar for portraying conservative icon margaret thatcher and jon voight who narrated a donald trump video at the rnc, won a 1978 oscar for "coming home," thanks in part to this explicitly anti-war speech. on any side of the aisle the life of a devoted actor activist isn't all exhilaration. consider susan sarandon, a steadfast bernie sanders supporter.

>> mine's is live, love, laugh. live, love and laugh and you know what, i think everybody in the world should adapt that mind-set especially with our world being in the state it is today, spread that, man, touch somebody, spread that love as much as you can. united we stand. that should be it. >> thank you, kevin hart. united we stand. i mean, you have the perfect last name because you have one of the biggest hearts. >> oh, don't you make me cry. don't you make me cry. >> i love this man. >> so it's rally fit -- >> rally health fit. >> yes. you come back any time. >> rally health fit. let's get out now to ginger in central park. >> hey. >> yeah, we are. living and loving life right here in central park. the die-hard james bay fans. i have a little waterfall to stand in. we will dry out. some of those flash flood watches co a. >> good friday morning. i am meteorologist mike nicco. check out the highlights, 13th "spare the air", and heat rules

inland again. more clouds and patchy fog through the wedge breaking the excessive heat through the weekend also. today, 64 in san francisco. check out 100s still holding on in antioch and livermore. 85 in san jose, oakland is 73, santa rosa is 8. tomorrow, temperatures are mainly in the 50s with more cloud cover than this morning. my seven-day outlook shows back to average by >> coming up, the man, james bay is here live. we'll get him one of nice hats. don't worry. stay with us. don't worry. stay with us.

good morning, i'm natasha zouves from the abc 7 morning news. we're tracking developing news out of the east bay. san leandro police are searching for this man who tried to kidnap a 23-year-old woman on a busy street yesterday on washington avenue. police say he maced the woman, then tried to drag her into his car. a man was driving by, saw the attack, and ran to save her. the attacker drove off in a silver nissan sedan. police believe the attack was random. an update on your morning commute with alexis. >> we're doing pretty good at this point. taking a live look outside at the bay bridge toll plaza. everyone was whizzing by a few seconds ago. now that we're live on the air,

we're seeing a few delays. if you want to take mass transit instead, we're looking good, after an earlier problem with b.a.r.t. this

good morning from the roof. we're grabbing the sunglasses a little bit sooner today. breathing clean air so far this morning. but another spare the air alert for the east bay during the afternoon and evening hours. temperatures today won't be quite as hot as yesterday. that trend will continue through the weekend.

>> thank you, mike. we'll have another abc 7 news update in about 30 minutes and always on our news app. an obvious change in the game, the players. now i'm 5'10" i was considered a big girl, a post player at 5'10". well, as you can see, times have changed. >> a little flashback friday for you when i was training with the 1996 u.s. olympic women's basketball team. we have this year's olympians here just a week before the game's opening ceremony going for their record sixth consecutive gold medal led by none other than head coach geno auriemma. give it up for the one and only geno. congratulations, uconn, another successful season, record-setting, kudos to you and the entire team and the season and your fans and all that. >> thank you. >> let's talk about this team right here. so how do you get them set for

rio, geno? >> well, luckily, a lot of them have played in previous olympics and a lot of them were together in london. so there's not a lot that you have to do, that's brand-new and they're all so unselfish and all want to play together and they all want the same thing so makes it easy for me. >> is the quietest they've ever been? i'm looking, you too, stew which, all of a sudden -- >> other than when playing defense they're really quiet. >> you got to give it to them. diana, okay, three gold medals. i know you got one of them right there. >> uh-huh. >> i mean, how do you stay motivated? how does it stay fresh when you go back? >> i mean it's always a different team. for some of us it's our fourth olympics. for some third, second. for stew which and a couple other, elena, their first and b.g., always exciting to see how we'll come together, what kind of team it'll be and i think we

have a group that's ready, focused, and to go down there and do work. >> yeah, do the work. and let's see, you've got your gold medal too. >> i got the little guy. >> you got the little guy. >> because you're going for six in a row. there's such a high level of expectation, sue. does it put added pressure on you guys. >> i don't think so. i think, you know, for those of us that it's our multiple chance to win a gold medal the players that we played with before, they set the tone. we're just kind of following suit and hoping we can show the younger players how to do it and like d. said, every team is different so we got to focus on this particular one. >> tamika, tell us about your stiffest competition. who do you feel will be your stiffest competition. >> every single night competition and geno has done a good job making us focus on every single team. they'll play their best but we never have a chance to play

halfheartedly and give 100%. if i had to pick one i would say australia. >> always auts, yeah, they always -- geno is nodding along with that. you guys are the vets with your -- new one, b.g. as you call, stew which, okay, and oh, what do you tell the three newbies? >> every single time you go out you got to give everything you have. no matter if you play a lot or a little bit every single time you touch the floor you got to come out and give 100%. >> and how do you bring them all together? you don't have a lot of time, geno. you got -- come on, they're the best of the best but bringing them together as a team. >> yeah, that's the biggest challenge that we have. because they're in the middle of their season in the wnba and they all have different styles of play on their own team. now we come together and we got to find one that works for everybody and as you can imagine, with 12 -- >> yeah. >> head-strong women it's not always easy. >> you are used to it.

i know, sue, because you played -- >> wait a minute. >> don't you -- isn't there something you collect, sue? mugs or something. >> yeah, yeah. >> i think we have something. >> oh, my god, you have mugs. this is like official. >> the mug so we thought -- >> hey. >> yes. >> "good morning america" mugs. put a little bubbly there. >> when you cheer. >> i like that. we're giving gift, it's only right, right? we got a little -- >> come on, b.g., get up, b.g. >> yeah, let b.g. get up. >> see, i'm not -- i was a post player. i was a post player in college. look at this. but, hey, y'all, thank you very much. we really appreciate that. >> thank you for having us. >> and bring home the gold. love you. love you all. if i don't pull a hammy can i be a reserve or something like that. >> absolutely. absolutely. >> i still got it. >> we could use you. >> the older i get the better i

was. out to sara in central park. >> thanks, now to one of the most famous bad guys, the joker, of all times. jared leto is transforming into the character for the highly anticipated "suicide squad" diving all in telling abc's abbie boudreau the method behind the joker's madness and how he nailed that seriously creepy laugh. >> i can't wait to show you my toys. >> reporter: folks, the wait is over. >> oh. we have got company. >> reporter: batman's nemesis is back. >> careful. >> reporter: who better to reinvent the sociopath than oscar winner jared leto. >> this character has been written about, acted, interpreted, reinterpreted. reimaged for 75 years so to be asked to take the baton and run with it was quite an honor and a responsibility so i dove pretty deep, you could say. >> reporter: how deep? let's just say there was no clowning around. leto fully immersed himself as

the joker committing to never breaking character while on set. >> when you take on a part like this you become the detective and journalist in a way and i have to say, it was the role of a lifetime. it was the most fun i think i've ever had. >> he's so demented and crazy and complicated. >> you learn a lot about me. >> learn a lot about you or the character? >> well, i guess what i think is fun but, yeah, he's a sick, twisted but i think very lovable joker. >> reporter: so lovable that you'll rarely find yourself rooting for him even when he gives you chills. >> ha, ha, ha. >> the laugh. you just nailed the laugh. how did you come up with that. >> a lot of experimentation. a lot of bad laughs. i remember wandering the streets of new york and toronto shooting and i would just laugh out loud and see how people would react to it. when i started to hone in on this laugh i realized it was the one that really people would turn around and be like what the hell is that. >> you were so immersed in the character. how are you able to break from that character and actually say

good-bye to it after you're done filming. >> i don't think you really say i think the joker is in there somewhere. >> it is? >> i feel like -- >> now i'm scared. >> you should be. i feel like this film is an introduction to the joker and i'm hopeful that we will see more to come. >> reporter: for "good morning america," abbie boudreau, abc news, los angeles. >> and "suicide squad" hits theaters august 5th and the entire squad will be right here on "gma" monday. >> everybody, we're talking everybody, all of them. anyway, sara, thank you so much. how about this crowd on a rainy morning. i'm telling you they are die-hard james bay fans. he is so grateful as are we that you are here but, of course, we have to talk about the cooler weather that's been settling in the midwest and great lakes. it's not going to stick around. you'll heat right back up. wow. >> ginger. >> we've got a great -- this crowd is overwhelming me in

good morning, i'm abc 7 news meteorologist mike nicco. check out your air planner for today, not quite as hot as yesterday. in fact that cooling trend will continue through to the weekend. all right, get this our parent company disney is sponsoring a fantastic summer of service campaign encouraging young people to engage in public service, kids can actually apply for a $500 grant to put toward projects that they're working on in their communities. this is 17-year-old sabina london. you have to keep your eye on her. she used her grant she won to fund free science camps. a girl after my own heart. it's only for girls. she started it with one camp in 2014. today she has 13 camps in six different states. sabina, i love you. what inspired you to do this? >> well, when i was younger i always loved science and working with kids and when i was in high

school i noticed that there were very few girls in my advanced science and math classes and at the same time i was also doing research so i really understood at the time science could be frustrating and challenging. >> plus girls needed to get into it. >> and especially that i had amazing mentors who were able to guide me through it and i found that at the end of the day it was really fascinating. >> you're now my mentor. give me a high-five. if you are interested in more information on the summer of service you can go ahead to ysa.org/beinspired for more information. sabina, you're awesome. >> thank you. coming up, guess who is coming? that guy. that guy right there, james bay. and this crowd. stay with us here on "gma."
