4 republican senators now declaring their no votes, the bill appears to be dead on arrival giving democrats a reason to declare victory. senate minority leader chuck schumer tweeting, this second failure of trumpcare is proof positive that the core of this bill is unworkable. >> right now we have no consensus. >> reporter: the vote scheduled for this week was already on hold after senator john mccain's health scare this weekend frustrating president trump who as candidate trump made this campaign promise. >> to immediately repeal and replace obamacare. have to do it. >> reporter: in a late night tweet, the president again called on republicans to just repeal failing obamacare now and start from a clean slate adding democrats will join in, and it's possible president trump gets that repeal. senate majority leader mitch mcconnell now says he will hold a vote in the coming days on a straight repeal with a two-year

delay to make that transition. but as it stands now, whether mcconnell will have the gop support even on a straight repeal is unclear. democrats have already said they're not on board. kendis and adrienne. >> yeah, and senator john mccain will not be there for that vote. elizabeth, thank you. well, president trump is dismissing his son's meeting with a kremlin connected lawyer as simply politics tweeting again that most politicians would have done and have done the same thing to get information on an opponent, but white house press secretary sean spicer issued a denial in an off-camera briefing and appeared to contradict the president and donald trump jr.'s e-mails which clearly stated it was set up to get incriminating information on hillary clinton. >> there was nothing as far as we know that would lead anyone to believe that there was anything except for discussion about adoption and the magnitsky act. but i would refer you back to counsel on that one. >> well, one of the president's allies is now questioning the

legality of the meeting. new jersey governor chris christie said it was probably against the law for trump junior to get opposition research for his father's campaign from a foreign country, but he added that it's too early to jump to conclusions. now to the high-level talks over two russian diplomatic compounds seized by the obama administration as punishment for election meddling. a senior russian official says they're close to reaching a deal for the u.s. to return the properties located in new york and maryland, but there's no word from the state department on the progress of the talks. russia has threatened to retaliate if the compounds are not returned. the trump administration has informed congress that iran is complying with the nuclear deal that allows sanctions to remain lifted, but in making the quarterly certification, officials said again that if iran is in default of the spirit of the deal, pointing to its ballistic missiles program and support of terrorism. candidate trump had vowed to rip up the nuclear deal, but officials say the administration

noor and his partner are both on administrative leave. the city rolled out body cams last year after calls for transparency following the fatal shooting of philando castile in nearby st. anthony, but in this case no body cams were rolling and the dash cam didn't capture the incident. >> like you i have a lot of questions about why the body cameras weren't on. >> reporter: this community is asking why police took their neighbor and friend. >> we've lost the dearest of people, and we're desperate for information. >> reporter: linsey davis, abc news, minneapolis. searchers admit it would be a miracle if they hope to find an arizona flash flood victim alive. the search resumes at daybreak for hector garnica, who was washed away when a wall of water swept through a popular recreation area. his wife and three children were among the nine family members who were killed. the extended family was celebrating a birthday in the tonto national park, and the search ended because of a threat of another flash flood. flash flooding is possible

throughout arizona and parts of nevada today with monsoon season in full swing there. and accuweather's paul williams says that's not the only nasty weather in the forecast. >> good morning. the interior will sizzle a bit but it's the monsoonal moisture that we're most concerned about at this point. we look for widespread afternoon/evening thunderstorms for tuesday right along the arizona and new mexico line then starting to ease away a little bit further to the north. that's going to be the pattern of concern for the rest of the week. get this, heavy thunderstorms continuously fueled by that push of monsoonal moisture coming out of the south. massive urban flash flooding and sudden flooding in desert washes. i'm meteorologist paul williams from accuweather. >> i've got some friends who live in the area, and it's just been really rough weatherwise. well, still ahead,
