performance for all the guests at the gala last night and opened with that song and we have much more on that coming up. >> it's keeping with the heavenly theme from last night. but begin with the breaking news, the stunning sudden resignation of new york attorney general eric schneiderman facing abuse allegations. four women accusing him of physically assaulting them in a blockbuster "new yorker" article and we're going to speak with ronan farrow, one of the reporters who broke the story, we're going to speak to him ? just a moment, but first, linsey davis with all the details. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. the fall was swift. just three hours after the "new yorker" article was published, eric schneiderman, one of the most powerful attorneys general in the country submitted his resignation. one of his accusers called coming forward an unusually difficult situation, asking the question, what do you do if your abuser is the top law enforcement officials in the state? new york attorney general eric schneiderman appeared to be an outspoken supporter of the #metoo movement, taking legal action against harvey weinstein. >> we have never seen anything as despicable as what we've seen here. >> reporter: even issuing this tweet praising the brave women

and men who spoke up about the sexual harassment they endured at the hands of powerful men, but now "new yorker" magazine reports that schneiderman is facing abuse accusations of his own. according to the magazine, four women have come forward claiming they were physically attacked by the attorney general on multiple occasions during relationships he had with them. with two women, michelle manning barish and tanya selvaratnam, both democrats and political activists, speaking on the record saying the now-former attorney general hit them, often after drinking, frequently in bed and never with their consent. manning barish said she dated schneiderman for nearly two years, telling the "new yorker" one night in his home the politician called her obscene names before he allegedly attacked me and just slapped me open-handed and with great force across my face landing the blow on my ear. months later she says she had to seek medical treatment for her

ear. overnight, schneiderman first denied the allegations saying, in the privacy of intimate relationships i have engaged in role-playing and other consensual sexual activity. i have not assaulted anyone. i have never engaged in nonconsensual sex which is a line i would not cross. and after his resignation, he said, he strongly contests the accusations but adding, they will effectively prevent me from leading the office's work at this critical time. in the magazine, selvaratnam calls schneiderman a misogynist and sexual sadist saying she too was slapped on several encounters. schneiderman says his resignation will be effective at the end of the day today. the manhattan prosecutor is opening an investigation into his alleged behavior. >> all unfolding so fast. thank you, linsey. we'll bring in one of the "new yorker" writers who broke the story and, ronan, let me begin with you. this exploded so quickly after you posted the article. he's now gone. he is resigning as attorney general. have you heard from the accusers since this article was posted? >> i think that there's a complicated wave of emotions

whenever a woman or man steps forward with this serious an allegation. they're going through all those emotions right now but several have reached out to say that they find it gratifying that these stories are being heard, because george, they hesitated for a long time, partly because of schneiderman's power and his influence within the democratic party. >> that's what i wanted to get into. schneiderman, very publicly, talking about harvey weinstein, talking about these allegations against other men, yet the women who are accusing him now had held back. do you fully understand why? >> they gave a variety of reasons. look, any time you speak publicly about this kind of a trauma and violence, especially in an intimate context which some of this was, is painful and marks you. this was a brave thing these women had to do. it was difficult for them but also in this case doubly so because he is a power player within their world, these all women closely connected to the democratic party in various ways and because they say in several

cases he used his office and his power to intimidate and threaten them, saying that he could wiretap people, that he could intimidate people in various ways. >> let's get into that with dan abrams now. we do know the resignation is taking effect at the end of the day but the manhattan's d.a. office is now investigating. what kind of trouble could he face? >> well, he could face criminal trouble. there are three possible crimes here, right, based on the reporting that ronan and jane mayer did. you have the possibility of an assault based on the slapping. you've got the choking is a possibility as a separate crime and the threats. also, a possible harassment crime so you've got -- >> all within the statute of limitations at this point? >> well, for a misdemeanor, it would be within two years. for a felony it would be within five years. most people believe that, based on the facts as laid out here, this would likely be a high-level misdemeanor which would mean it would have to be done within two years but i think that most of the allegations that ronan lays out occurred within the two-year time frame but it means they'd have to move quickly. >> how about these threats to use his office in order to

protect himself and threaten them? >> look, that's another possible crime. again, you're going to have to prove it, right? the interesting thing to me is that part of his defense is seemingly to admit that he did this stuff, right? the first thing he says publicly is it was role-playing. well, by saying it was role-playing, you are in effect conceding i did what they are saying but it was consensual. so he's now kind of boxed himself in, i think, as a legal matter where he can't say -- he could but i don't think he will say none of this ever happened. he's going to say it occurred within the context of some sort of, you know, consensual role-play which is clear in the article the women dispute. >> and ronan, one of the things you get into in the article as well is, not only did the women hold back from accusing him publicly but stayed in the relationships for a whole time, and you get into the psychology of the abuser in this case.

>> george, some were in a relationship with him at the time. but i want to point out to what dan just said. these women one after another were adamant. this is not "fifty shades of grey." this was not in an area of grey at all in their mind. this was assault, they said, over and over again. this happened when they were fully clothed in many cases, not in the context where they gave any consent and in one case, george, this wasn't in a relationship at all. a prominent attorney said clearly he just came on to her at an event and when she rebuffed him, he began calling her some really horrific epithets and slapped her across the face more than one time to the point where it left a mark and we looked at that picture and i'll tell you, it was very upsetting to see. >> one of the great ironies of this is schneiderman was ordered to review how the manhattan d.a. had handled the harvey weinstein investigation. and now it's flipped. which is the manhattan d.a. is now investigating the attorney general for this behavior.

i mean, this is -- it's a stunning -- this -- you have to understand if you live in new york and you live in the sort of political world in new york, this is a stunning allegation and a stunning fall from grace. >> and one of the things we're seeing, dan, also, as we've seen tweets now from donald trump jr. and kellyanne conway taking, you know, this on. of course, schneiderman also a big antagonist of president trump. >> a huge antagonist on president trump. particularly the amazing thing on the issue of the way people treat women. >> incredible. dan abrams and ronan farrow, thanks very much. robin. >> okay, george. now to president trump and that high-stakes decision. the president is hours away from announcing whether the u.s. will withdraw from the iran nuclear deal. the deal meant to keep iran from developing nuclear weapons. our senior white house correspondent cecilia vega is tracking all of this for us. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: hi, robin, good morning to you. the president called this deal insane, ridiculous, said it's something that never should have

been even signed in the first place so these are his concerns. there's a clause in this deal that allows iran to resume part of its nuclear program after 2025. that is one of the president's main issues with this and he's also here looking to make good on a campaign promise. this is something he told his base he would tear up on day one. european allies have lobbied him hard, fearful that if the u.s. pulls out it might give iran the incentive to leave this deal too. emmanuel macron for that bro fest making the pitch in person. the brits made a last-ditch effort recently, even sending someone onto fox news to make the case in hopes that president trump might hear them. now the president this morning appears all -- appears all but ready to pull out of this deal and, robin, iran has threatened grave consequences for anyone who, quote, betrays the deal. this announcement happens at 2:00 right here at the white house. >> yes, indeed. all right cecilia. george, i know you'll have it live when that happens. >> we'll do that this afternoon. we move on to politics now. voters going to the polls in ohio, north carolina, indiana, west virginia, all setting the

stage for november's midterms with control of the house and senate at stake and our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce is tracking it all. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, george. well, all eyes right now are on west virginia and the controversial former coal baron turned gop senate candidate don blankenship. over the last 24 hours we have seen something pretty remarkable. president trump coming out and urging voters to the to back blankenship, a member of his own party, republicans are afraid that if blankenship wins the nomination today he won't be able to stand up to the democrat come november and they'll lose the chance to turn this blue state red. he's the gop senate candidate that has his own party on edge. >> i'm neither despicable or a moron or a bigot. >> reporter: as west virginia voters head to the polls, president trump is urging them not to back don blankenship. comparing to fail alabama senate candidate roy moore. tweeting, blankenship can't win the general election in your state, no way.

remember alabama. blankenship responded saying, he's trumpier than trump and pointing out that the president supported accused pedophile roy moore. >> we all really liked president trump's policies but we know that he doesn't get things right. >> reporter: blankenship has been going after the washington establishment but sparked outrage with this racial remark about the family of mitch mcconnell's wife, transportation secretary, elaine chao. >> mitch mcconnell has created millions of jobs for china people. >> reporter: his past is also a point of contention. blankenship served a year in prison for a mine safety conviction after a 2010 explosion in one of his mines killed 29 people. but he recently told us he did nothing wrong and insists he's misunderstood. >> what do you want people to know about you? >> i'm probably the most honest person that ever ran for office. >> reporter: now, george, blankenship has been embracing the president throughout this incredibly tight race and now he claims that trump is simply being misinformed by the

washington establishment and republican leaders here on the hill who blankenship says doesn't want him to win because he'll help promote the president's agenda. >> yeah, and all this so important for republicans, mary, because you've got in ohio, indiana, west virginia, democrats on defense if the republicans can pick up one of these seats, it helps secure senate control for them. >> reporter: exactly. look, republicans see these key races today as their best chance to grow their senate majority. they're looking to nominate republican candidates in these red states that voted for donald trump but where there are currently democratic incumbents. keep a very close eye on ohio and indiana where you see the republican candidates scrambling to out-trump each other. in fact, in indiana, one of the republican candidates has been carrying around a cardboard cutout of the president just to see who is more close to the president than anybody else. george. >> okay, mary, thanks very much. michael. >> all right, thank you, george. now to that volcano emergency in hawaii. in an incredible look inside that volcano spewing lava hundreds of feet in the air and

spreading a potentially dangerous cloud of toxic gas as far as 60 miles away. so far at least 35 homes and other buildings have been destroyed, and abc's kayna whitworth is on hawaii's big island with the latest. good morning, kayna. >> reporter: michael, good morning. we have a total of 12 cracks in the earth but authorities are saying volcanic activity has subsided a bit at least for now. still, the hazardous fumes continue and this morning, a new problem as authorities try to figure out how to remove flammable material from a nearby geothermal plant. panic on the island this morning as two new cracks in the earth open up. >> wow! >> reporter: spewing lava into a community already devastated by the wrath of the kilauea volcano. kilauea, now violently erupting for six straight days, sending stress throughout the paradise island. when you look out here behind me you can see those plumes of smoke. each one of those is a separate crack in the earth that is

spilling out lava over leilani estates. >> reporter: the neighborhood of leilani estates will never be the same. the nearly 2,000 people evacuated fearing the worst. >> and saying good-bye and just hoping for the best but not knowing. >> reporter: those who chose to stay witnessing the destruction firsthand. >> the sheer destruction of this through your neighborhood, i mean, it will never be the same. >> never ever. saw three houses burn yesterday with my own eyes burn right down to the ground. >> reporter: the lava now streaming through a line of fissures over two miles long and in places shoot up to 330 feet in the air higher than the statue of liberty's torch. you can see the lava has destroyed that home right there and it's also completely taken over this road. in some places it is stacked some 20 feet high and you can feel the heat radiating from it. the lava already reaching temperatures of nearly 2,000 degrees, so hot it can melt gold. take a look at this time-lapse videotape of a mustang bursting into flames as it's devoured by a wave of lava.

and while the crisis continues, the community is coming together in the evacuation centers. >> when everything is gone there's just no way of replace everything all at once and to get back a little bit of what we had, we can at least keep living. >> reporter: they have about 200 people in shelters right now and local leaders are trying to get help from fema while also trying to create access to communities that have been cut off because of new cracks in major highways. michael. >> all right, thank you so much, kayna. what a tragic situation out there in hawaii right now. and now to a big change that could be coming to the way you travel. flying taxis, they may be hitting the skies closer than you think. scenes like these are closer to becoming a reality. uber is meeting with transportation officials in los angeles trying to convince them to let them start testing within two years and abc's t.j. holmes is here with the details. >> we've been promised this

since we watched george jetson make his commute on saturday mornings. this is moving towards reality. uber air, you could call an uber and instead of pulling up to the curb it would come down from the skies, yes, and have wings. you're seeing an idea but uber is having a summit that includes the transportation secretary and other members of the administration and they are making a push to allow them to start testing these within the next two years in cities like dallas and dubai. they said it would not cost -- it wouldn't be cost prohibitive and it would cost about the same at a cab eventually and they also say this would cut down on commutes, this would cut down on congestion, and it would cut down on commutes and pollution. this is becoming a reality. >> costs the same as cabs? >> eventually down the road it would. not initially. people wouldn't do it if it would cost so much to take it so they had to bring the cost down. >> that would be the least of my concern. [ laughter ] i'm just more comfortable on the ground. >> but safety is a big -- there are so many regulations to get past to do this. how do you do air traffic

control for low altitude? a lot to get past. but this is a huge step. >> okay, now "the jetsons" theme song is playing in my head. ♪ jane his wife let's go to ginger with flooding in the heartland. >> you can see images, 1400 homes affected by some of the worst flooding in 40 years. there's more rain coming. more on that in a bit. good morning. i'm abc7 news meteorologist mike nicco. the coast and bay not quite as warm today.

question, do kids know what's good for them? sam, your mom said she trusts you to know what's right and wrong in terms of what you're viewing. do you think that's the right way to go ? >> yeah, because like i don't watch like inappropriate videos. >> i don't think it's a trust thic. thicng. i think it sometimes the kids get drawn in and it's not their fault. >> reporter: we showed some of our video no common sense media. >> developmentally kids aren't even primed at that age to have the wherewithal to shut off youtube. >> reporter: the creator of supermario logan told us he's lost revenue since youtube started age restricting and demonetizing his videos. he also said common sense media's review was accurate regarding those old videos and that his newer ones are much cleaner in content and made for a wider audience but adds, it's ultimately the responsibility of the supervising adults. youtube told us their main site is for those 13 plus. we created the youtube kids app to offer parents a safer

alternative and ramped up our efforts to age-gate flagged videos on the main app that are better suited for older audiences. now, it does say on the main site's terms of service that it's not intended for children under 13 which, of course, was news to the parents we spoke with. in fact, school officials in two town, rome, new york, and brainerd, minnesota, have warned parents about supermario logan and youtube says they have tools to help and filters to block appropriate content and its restricted mode. tomorrow we'll look at how well they worked. >> they're watching one thing and a suggested video pops up and it ends up something inappropriate for children. >> waving things in front of the kids. >> juju, we'll talk to you tomorrow about that. coming up, former dancing champ rashad jennings live.

good morning. i'm reggie aqui from "abc7 mornings." it's 8:27. and today, google sets out to get responsible. the role of tech in our well-being is likely a theme of the morning as the company starts its developers conference. thousands of people expected at the shoreline amphitheatre in mountain view. the ceo will speak at 10:00 this morning. he may address privacy concerns and give parents new tools to manage how kids access information. google may also update google assistant, improve the android mobile operating system, and push further into augmented reality technology. let's just talk about actual reality right now. hi, alexis. >> yeah, it's not great if you're going to be traveling on northbound 280 in the south bay, as you head past the cupertino area. we have a crash just south of magdale magdalena, blocking the two left lanes.

[ applause ] and we have a great guest. she's an actress and neu neuroscientist, whoa and best-selling author. now she has a new book called "boying up." take a closer look at what's it like for boys to grow up in today's world. please welcome mayim bialik. [ applause ] >> nice to see you. >> welcome. >> good to see you. >> how is it going? >> thanks for having me. [ applause ] >> thank you. thanks for joining us at the

desk. >> oh, you know, nothing else i'd rather do this early. >> come on. >> congratulations on the new book. this book is really timely because in the wake of the me too movement there's so many conversations about raising men in today's world. >> uh-huh. >> it's tough out there. >> yeah, i mean i obviously wrote it a year ago before any of this was more part of a conversation because, you know, the book was a follow-up to "girling up" and everything that happens in the boy's body as a scientist that i wanted to share and as the mom of two boys and the culture boys are being raised in there's so much more to talk about so that is also a large part of the book. >> it it true once you got the green light for the book you panicked a little? >> yeah, totally panicked. seemed like a great idea until i had to write it. even though as a scientist i'm trained to know not only about the female and feel body as a mom, i felt like i didn't

necessarily know and did include obviously my boys' voices throughout the book and male friends, you know, grown-up boys who kind of give thoughts per chapter so we have kind of a real male perspective but also, you know, the big angry internet can make you feel like what am i doing. i read one comment was why do i know about boys? exactly, why do i know? >> how old are you? >> 9 1/2 and 12 1/2. >> did they surprise you at all about what they said? >> yes and no. i mean i think the whole process of parenting is a large surprise and in particular parenting boys which i consider myself like i'm a rough and tough mom. i like to wrestle and i like sports cars but when it comes down to it there were a lot of things about their development and the way they process emotions i didn't know how to handle. you don't want to hug and talk it out? that's what we do. past a certain age they don't want to hug and talk it out. >> you think your boys will follow in your footsteps and become scientists or actors.

>> oh, heaven forbid. heaven forbid. no, i mean, you know, for most of their lives it looked like we would have a mailman and a policeman because that's what they said they wanted to be. now my older one, he's very musical. he also has the mind of an engineer or an architect so that would be lovely. my younger one is a really talented art at this time. i don't know but actor, oh, no, i hope not. >> it worked out for you. 28 years ago "blossom." >> why you making me feel old? [ applause ] >> you were an infant. >> i was 14. but, yeah, growing up in the spotlight it's hard and, you know, for me i think that for my boys i want them to do whatever they want but i'm not driving them to auditions, that will have to wait if they want to do that. >> what's the biggest thing you learned that you want to give to them? >> i think that it's funny, i just got emotional because i

feel like what i want them to -- what i want boys to know or what i hope that parents who read this book can communicate to their boys is that there is a natural or gangic process to growing up whether you're a boy or a girl and parents, we know a lot of things, but we don't know everything and it's okay to be part of a conversation like to take part in a conversation with your children about what's the best way for us to communicate right now. what's the best way for me to teach you to behave respectfully while respecting your organic process as a human. >> it just got heavy. >> it did. >> going back to the me too movement and you understand this because you made comments and you said it was taken out of con text and people realized that. we have to be able to be comfortable to have the conversation that we're going to have misat thes. >> also in the book we talk about consent. we talk about some of the words my children only learned because our president has brought them into our vernacular and that's not a political statement. that's a statement of there are things in our culture that even if i wasn't ready to talk to them about, if you don't teach them, the internet is going to.

>> exactly. >> so, yeah. >> can we bring you back to acting for a little bit. i love "big bang theory." >> there you go. >> cannot believe the wedding is going to happen. >> between awe ensheldon. >> any surprises? >> if they were surprises and i told you it wouldn't be surprises. >> there are some surprises and obviously mark hamill is on the show and we have amazing guest stars. it's a really fun episode. i think that everyone will feel very satisfied. >> ooh. >> satisfied. >> that's well put. >> very well pit. scientifically put. >> whoa. >> it's a great cast and the book and -- i love it's a companion to the book you did before. >> thank you. >> very fitting. >> thank you. >> i love that.

for you to be on the other side of the judges' table. >> to be on the other side was so much fun. i was nervous because being in the ballroom and used to the competition and competing with everybody, now i get to see it from another view and actually was fun because i went back to my season as i'm watching all the contestants and putting all this energy into a dance and a routine and i've been there before. now i can actually critique and give positive reinforcement to where they're at. >> which brings me to your new book "the if in life" giving it everything you got. tell me about the book and what brought you to it. >> yes, i'm so humbled by this. truly am and this is the birthday of my first book. so i'm completely beside myself. and obviously having michael strahan writing the foreword is humbling and if in life is a play on word when you spell out life if is the foundation of the
