americans. in a decision announced overnight president trump plans to stop making billions of dollars in subsidies that help lower income americans pay for their health insurance. according to the federal government, those payments help about 7 million people defray the cost of their health insurance policies. aefts t it's the latest move by the president to do through executive action what he could not get congress to do, dismantle obamacare. >> the cost of the obamacare has been so outrageous, it is absolutely destroying everything in its wake. >> reporter: in a statement overnight the white house said it is determined that payments are unlawful. ending them will immediately increase the number of americans without any health insurance. the latest action by the president comes hours after he signed an executive order designed to open the door for insurance companies to offer stripped down health plans. they would cost less but also cover less. >> today is only the beginning. in the coming months we plan to

take new measures to provide our people with even more relief and more freedom. >> reporter: the move to end the subsidies was praised by speaker of the house paul ryan who issued a statement saying, obamacare has proven itself to be a fatally flawed law, and the house will continue to work with the trump administration to provide the american people a better system. but democratic leaders nancy pelosi and chuck schumer condemned the move, saying it is a spiteful act of vast pointless sabotage. now millions of hard working american families will suffer just because president trump wants them to. the president is already out on twitter this morning defending his move, tweeting, quote, the democrats' obamacare is imploding. massive subsidy payments to their pet insurance companies has stopped. dems should call me to fix. george, as you saw in that statement from nancy pelosi and chuck schumer, the call

effectively is in saying that democrats are horrified by this move and think it will mean fewer people insured and more people paying much higher health insurance premiums on the lower income side. >> interesting use of the tense in that tweet. it was the president who stopped the payments overnight and now he's saying the democrats should fix it. yesterday, jon, extraordinary white house briefing room by john kelly for the first time coming to the briefing room and saying basically i'm not getting fired. >> reporter: george, it's another one of those i've never seen anything like it moments here in the trump white house. there have been so many stories about discord and dissension in the west wing and about kelly's deep frustration with his inability to control the president. he came out and said it's not his job to control the president, that he thinks this is the most important job he's had, the most challenging job, and he's not quitting or getting fired any time soon. >> seemed pretty relaxed in the briefing room. jon karl, thanks very much. george, the president is

also set to deliver a major speech today on the fate of america's nuclear deal with iran. our chief global affairs correspondent martha raddatz is in washington with more. martha, what can we expect here? >> reporter: robin, in fact, president trump calmled it the worst deal ever but the president is not expected to walk away from the nuclear deal which lifted punishing sanctions on iran in exchange for limits on inspections of its nuclear program. instead he is expected to decertify the deal. that would kick it back to congress to decide whether reimpose sanctions, but congress, robin, really has no appetite to do this. >> it sounds like a compromise of some sort. >> it does because this way he can say he did something about the deal but not completely rip it up which would infuriate the others who signed onto the deal. but this will still be seen as very controversial. >> martha. george will be anchoring abc's

willing to put me in there for, you know. it could be a week, it could be 30 days. >> reporter: last month rebecca bredow ordered by a court to get her 9 1/2-year-old son vaccinated or go to jail. >> you've repeatedly stated over the past several days publicly that you will not follow this court order. >> reporter: bredow chose jail. this morning she's speaking out for the first time since her release. you're a mom of two and spent five days in jail. what was it like? >> to have to sit in a cell for 22 hours a day for the first few days and with nothing to do but sit with your thoughts. >> reporter: bredow claimed the vaccination controversy arose due to a dispute with her former husband who had first agreed to a space-out schedule and then changed his mind. he wanted a regular schedule for his son. >> i was trying to protect my kids and stand up for what i believed in and it was worth it to me because, you know, to try to take the risk of -- because i was trying to stop the vaccinations from happening. there has been an overwhelming amount of support i've received from the community, from

everybody. >> we've heard from many parents though that say by not vaccinating your child you're putting other children at risk. how do you answer that? >> that's their belief. that's how they choose to believe. for me i've done my research. >> reporter: while the state of michigan does allow parents to opt their children out of certain vaccines for nonmedical reasons, the american academy of pediatrics says vaccines have been a part of the fabric of our society for decades and are the most significant medical innovation of our time. vaccines are safe. vaccines are effective. vaccines save lives. but despite her five-day stint in prison nothing will change this mother's mind. >> whether you are pro-vaccine or against vaccine, you know, this is about the fact my rights as a mother were taken away as well. >> reporter: bredow tells me she's devastated she won't have primary custody of her son something she thought never would happen and will appeal that decision. >> you referred to the second child. >> right. >> so will she vaccinate the

little girl? >> a lot wondering will this happen all over again. this is the second child with her second husband and in that case both parents have agreed not to vaccinate her. she's never been vaccinated and they say she never will be. >> george asked a really good question during the piece. >> i thought at first she just was going to space them out. i didn't realize she wanted no vaccinations at all. >> initially she and her ex decided to space them out. now she decided she doesn't want to vaccinate at all because she heard about vaccination grouping and thought that that might be dangerous contrary to medical practice, so that's what they've decided, not to vaccinate at all. >> she said when you think about the other -- it's not just your child, there are other children involved that these kids are around. >> certainly doctors that we've spoken to say that their recommendation is that these children get vac nated because they need to be protected and they also need to protect children around them. >> the science on this is clear. thanks very much. we'll be right back.

so we'll -- >> that's a brick. >> we'll get upstairs in a moment. first the latest on the new threat from wildfires. abc's linzie janis is in santa rosa, california, for us. good morning, linzie. >> reporter: good morning, robin. firefighters are once again concerned that these fires could explode in size, strong winds headed this way. gusts up to 50 miles per hour predicted tonight and into the overnight hours. their stressing how unpredictable these fires are. two of them merging together in the last 24 hours. but this is the fate that so many people still face. if they managed to get out alive, they don't know if they're going to come back to a scene like this. this is somebody's home gym, right here the treadmill and over here you can see these iron weights survived the searing heat. but this entire neighborhood was consumed by flames. the people who live here are not allowed back here yet because it's just as dangerous.

firefighters are asking everybody to remain vigilant and pay very close attention to emergency services today. robin. >> when you see the scope of that -- thank you, linzie, very much. >> the rebuilding effort is going to be so massive out there. >> it is. we go to washington. the latest on president trump's bombshell health care decision. the white house decided to end subsidy payments that subsidize insure for millions of poor and working class americans. abc's chief washington correspondent jon karl is at the white house with all the latest. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, george. this is president trump's biggest move yet to dismantle obamacare. it's a step that health care experts warn could lead to higher premiums for millions of americans pricing many of them out of health insurance altogether. the president is already tweeting about the move this morning saying, quote, the democrats obamacare is imploding. massive subsidy payments to their pet insurance companies has stopped. dems should call me to fix. but, george, democratic leaders, nancy pelosi and chuck schumer

have come out with a statement just after this was announced saying, quote, it is a spiteful act of vast, pointless sabotage. now millions of hard-working american families will suffer just because president trump wants them to. george. >> this was a very big move from the president. jon karl, thanks very much. and, george, now to that alarming child seat scare. more than 500,000 car seats have been recalled because they may not adequately protect children in a crash. abc's david kerley has much more on all that. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning to you, robin. this is really as much about your car as it is about these car seats. if you have an older vehicle that only has a lap belt here in the middle and the back the fear is that if you're in an accident it can fling the front of the seat like this and injure the child. if you have a shoulder belt and you install this correctly you should be good. also, they come with these anchors that kind of strap on the top. if you can anchor this and tighten it down, it's okay and they also send you these latch systems.

if you have anchor points embedded in the seat and run this through and latch it you should be okay as well. this company diono has a website and phone number to call. about a half dozen models were affected. they do have a fix, robin. give them a call if you don't have these straps any longer that came with the seat. >> great advice there. thank you so much. thank you. coming up here, jimmy kimmel opens up to amy. exclusive interview. hear what he says about his baby, the health care battle and the guest he says he's terrified to interview. >> remember this guy? of course you do. austin rogers, he won so much money on "jeopardy." well, wait until you see what happened last night. and, lara, what do you have upstairs? >> i have denim and lori bergamotto. and she's going to show us how to get the jeans of your dreams as you mention, jeans that won't fade and jeans as much as we try that won't rip. lori, go, baby.

decide if they can afford to save their son's life. >> reporter: massive decisions that you continue to face with your son billy. how is he doing? >> he's doing well. we're getting to have another operation. he's doing well. >> i love all the pictures of him smiling. >> he's very smiley and very cute. >> was there a moment when you decided i'm now going to take something very personal and try to change the mood of not only america but our lawmakers. >> it's not something that i discussed with anyone other than my wife. but i did know that i had to say something. >> thank you for listening. i promise i'm not going to cry for the rest of the show. >> reporter: long before his son's crisis he lived through a health care and an insurance struggle. >> i remember being fired from a radio job when i was 23 years old and i had to get my own health insurance. i was paying $800 a month. i had no job so, you know, i've

been there. i understand it and it's just kind of always stuck with me. >> until something happens to you, i'm a cancer survivor and you actually realize what these costs are. >> right. >> you were very emotional when you talked about your son, also when you talked about the events in las vegas. have you been surprised at the reaction? >> no, definitely not. it's embarrassing to me. i do my best to keep it together. i can't keep it in. >> you're a crier. >> yes, i'm a crier. even as a young boy i was a crier. >> it's a new york show next week. any chance you could get president trump there? >> i would guess that he's not planning to visit me any time soon. i think he and sean hannity have date night on those nights. so it's tough to break away. >> would you like to have donald trump on the show? >> absolutely. i have a lot of questions for donald trump. >> what would be your first one? >> i really -- maybe this is crazy but i feel like i could turn him around on a couple of things. >> reporter: this after going toe-to-toe with donald trump jr. on twitter this week. >> he was calling you out along

with other liberal hollywood elite saying people are late in the game to talk about -- >> he's an idiot. let's just start with that. this is an imbecile that is -- whose job seems to be tweeting as far as i can tell. but with that said, i do admire that he's very loyal to his father. first of all, the harvey weinstein thing, people like this false equivalence of that's somehow is equivalent to what happened in las vegas. i mean, harvey weinstein is not a person -- is not a friend of mine. i'm not in the movie business. and i'll add that that story came out like i think moments before we went to tape on thursday and we didn't have a show on friday so -- >> you addressed it on the following monday. >> so, you know, of course, that was -- it's a convenient -- now what they're doing now is they're trying to drag up any kind -- especially these gun nuts trying to drag any -- like take any comedy bit i did out of context and use it as some kind of proof.

they're saying that i'm calling myself the moral conscience of america which i most certainly never did and most certainly never would. >> we are in brooklyn, new york right now. >> reporter: you have surprises in store for people at home. when they're watching next week. >> we do have some surprises. some people will show up. we have some events that i think will be meaningful to tell people about and we hope it'll be a great week. >> and kimmel told me he is going to continue to take on serious topics including health care. overnight he tweeted about the health care news, trump ending obamacare payments that subsidize insurance for millions of poor americans saying, wait, he said i'm going to take care of everybody. everybody's going to be taken care of much better than they're taken care of now. something trump said in an interview back in 2015 and also as i was interviewing jimmy i noticed on his twitter feed it says ready to serve. i asked him if he was serious. could we see a president kimmel. he said, believe me, nobody wants to see that. he doesn't take himself too seriously.

>> most of all jimmy. >> he knows he has a platform. >> and has used it well. >> you can see "jimmy kimmel live" at 11:30 tonight right here on abc and as you heard jimmy kimmel, live from brooklyn, all next week and we cannot wait for that. ginger, we'll head over to you. >> yes, what a crowd we have up here. i don't get it see you guys all that often. these ladies are from cincinnati, ohio. staying for the weekend. it's going to be a nice weekend, it'll warm up as we go and be a great weekend to get outdoors especially if you are in new hampshire. look at those images from the gondola there. so pretty. ands that -- that's loon mountain and one more from stowe. you can see where the ski runs and snowboarders will be. so a short time from now but we'll take all that colo i'm abc7 news meteorologist drew tuma with your accuweather forecast. a spare-the-air in effect not

only today, tomorrow. we're watching the wind that will likely increase late tonight, early tomorrow morning. futuretracker wind gusts saturday morning gusting over 30 miles per hour. accuweather seven-day forecast, smoky through the weekend and then we're tracking a chance of showers thursday morning of next week. wh ♪ wh now to our series "beyond the scale" and this morning, we're revealing the perfect plate. the healthy foods that could help ward off heart disease, dementia and cancer and our nutrition dream team is back. our senior medical contributor dr. jennifer ashton and registered dietitian and nutritionist maya feller. all right. >> good morning. >> good morning, everybody. we'll get you involved. we're going to get the audience involved. >> yep. >> you didn't know you were going to be -- there was going to be an exam. >> is little quiz. >> little quiz here. this is the first question i want to ask our audience. true or false, the leading cause of death in the u.s. is heart

disease. true or false. got a lot of trues. a lot of trues. a couple false. >> we have a good audience so the answer is true. this is the number one killer of men and women in this country and in the world. the bad news is there are a lot of risk factors that are existing right now. the good news is you can see some of them, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, smoking, some pregnancy complications like gestational diabetes and i want to point out and take a look at this picture, you guys. there is a condition called acanthosis, darking or velvety appearance behind the neck or armpits or groins. that is not dirt, so if you see that on yourself or someone else, get checked for diabetes because that is one of the biggest modifiable risk factors for preventing heart disease. >> thank you for that. can food help in this regard too? >> oh, absolutely. so what i want to highlight here is that this beautiful plate actually can help reduce the risk of many diet related chronic illnesses.

i'll focus on heart disease. for that it's all about reducing the added sugars. we know when you eat more added sugars you have more circulating fat in your bloodstream, right. so what we're going to say here is focus on things that are cardio protective like this gorgeous salad with a little bit of avocado and berries here, berries over here, as well. >> all right. let's go to our next question for our great audience. are you ready? do you have your paddles? question number two, the number of people living with dementia is 47 million worldwide. that number will double in 2050. true or false? will double in 2050? y'all, you think, true? >> okay. >> think again. >> this is kind of -- a trick question. you've right it's all going up but it's false because it's actually going to triple. so this is something to be clear, dementia is a form of memory issue, cognitive decline and can affect our day-to-day life. alzheimer's is the most common. there are other causes.

there are risk factors we break up in mid-life, again, high blood pressure, obesity, hearing loss is an associated risk factor. when you get to later life you're talking about things that are a lot of times under our capacity to modify, smoking, depression, being physically inactive. being socially isolated and, again, diabetes. so that is the good news is that there are things that are good for the heart also good for the brain. >> and good news where diet is concerned with this. >> there's always good news with diet. one of the things we look at is anti-inflammatory foods. we want to cut those foods and focus on foods that help increase healthy blood flow to the brain. here what we're going to see is nice healthy lean proteins, but i'm going to focus on the nuts and the seeds, right? again, as well as the avocado. now, alcohol comes into play. a glass of red wine in moderation, the recommendation if you are a drinker is one glass for women, two for men. i have to point out you can't save up till the end of the week, right?

it's not like saturday you can have -- >> why are you looking at me? why are you looking at me when you say that? >> i'm just saying. definitely not. >> okay. we just have like 30 seconds left. cancer. >> the cancer, the bottom line you guys is that 40% of cancer is attributed to obesity so, again, all of these things that are good for the heart, good for the brain can cut your risk of at least ten different types of obesity-related cancer. >> final word. >> get those veggies in. look at this plate. more than half your plate is vegetables. get it. >> my favorite. >> me too. >> i'm going to do that as well. >> you know what i like. >> yeah, robin. [ applause ] >> coming up, the denim lab. are they really indestructible? are they really indestructible?

♪ i'm in love with the shape of you ♪ we are back with our fashion fix. the denim lab with "good housekeeping's" lori bergamotto. thank you, lori, for being here. thank you so much. >> thank you. >> it's so tough with the black jeans. >> i know. this happens to me all the time. you buy a pair, right, everyone. you wash them and all of a sudden they're like gray jeeps. they're no longer black so old navy came out with this pair of jean, robin and claim you can wash them up to 20 types without them fading. so at the "good housekeeping" institute that was the appropriate reaction. in our textiles lab we tested this out and washed these jeans 20 times and compared them to 11 other pairs of jeans so you can see this is a pair that faded. they really had virtually no change. the old navy ones and it's

thanks to they were double dyed and so because of that there's a black reactive dye in here that allows them to maintain their color longer. >> is there something we should look for? >> definitely. so when you're buying jeans, this particular pair has something special in them but just if you want to maintain the color of dark denim you want to buy a detergent that is specialized for dark fabrics because it has special ingredients in there that will allow the -- it will deactivate the chlorine in water which can really be detrimental to the color of your jeans. you always want to wash them in cold as well and inside out as well. >> all right. inside out if you can. so here we have -- kids are really really tough on blue jeans. >> tell me about it. i feel like all of my paycheck goes to buying my kids new jeans because they're constantly. >> especially the knees. >> they're always on the floor, running around, playing on the playground so lands' end has this patch reinforced. can you feel it for me. it doesn't feel like anything, right?

jeans, if you snag into something, you're worried they're going to completely rip so, robin, if you will do me this favor. first we show you -- you're going to get down and dirty. this is a regular pair of jeans, we made a little snip here. can you rip that for me? oh, wow. >> grrrrrrr. >> that is some serious strength right there. >> okay. >> okay. and this is from the gap. this is their indestructible denim. made that same snip. try to rip those. give it all your strength, robin. see. >> no kidding. >> we even had your -- >> billy dee couldn't do this? he's one of our prop guys. >> basically these jeans have something called dynema, tougher than steel. i mean that's pretty amazing so it's 300% more resistant to abrasion and you can rest assured that whether you buy the jeans or the jacket it is indestructible indeed. >> as you are as well. lori, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> wow.

good morning. i'm reggie aqui from "abc7 mornings." that breaking news in napa where any moment authorities are going to give us their daily update on the fires. when that news conference starts we will bring it to you live. right now, we'll head over to meteorologist drew tuma. he's going to tell us about the windy conditions today. are we expecting it to pick up today, drew? >> i think so, very late today, reggie, the winds will pick up. but the weather is certainly cooperating right now in the north bay. winds currently anywhere from calm to less than 5 miles per hour, but futuretracker wind gusts, what we're watching for late tonight into early saturday morning, the wind will likely gain some strength. by 1:00 saturday morning the winds in the north bay around napa and fairfield gusting at or over 25 miles per hour. so it's for that fact a wind advisory will go into effect later on tonight at 11:00 for the north bay hills and the east

bay hills for those northerly winds to gust near potentially 50 miles per hour. that northerly wind, it would take smoke from the fires in the north bay and send it south once again. with those winds and low humidity later on today, a red-flag warning is in effect for the areas to be shaded and again the north bay hills and the east bay hills, that means fires can easily start and spread under those conditions. a check on the roads. sue? >> we're having some trouble with sue's microphone. while we're waiting for that, we did get some pretty good news overnight. drew was talking about the winds dying down. that helped firefighters. now we know the tubbs fire in that na pa county is 25% contained. that's a pretty marked difference from yesterday when it was 15% contained. and the atlas fire in solano, it is still growing but it is 27%
