7:03 am
first ladies who normally are not weighing in on policy matters. melania trump's statement released through a spokeswoman, she says, quote, mrs. trump hates to see the children separated from their families and hopes both sides of the aisle can finally come together to achieve successful immigration reform. she believes we need to be a country that follows all laws but also a country that governs with heart. now, this both sides line really seems to be echoing the president's claim that democrats are to blame for this. of course, the president's critics say he could unilaterally stop this essentially with a phone call and bring this policy to an end. i want to go now to mrs. bush's comment. she is comparing these detention centers to world war ii era japanese-american internment camps. quote, i live in a border state. i appreciate the need to enforce and protect our international boundaries but this zero tolerance policy is cruel, it is immoral and it breaks my heart. david, you know this, this is a growing course of opposition from the president's allies in the evangelical community too. >> and cecilia, you make a good point there, what does the president hope to accomplish
7:04 am
when he goes to capitol hill? does he want this zero tolerance policy stopped or is he okay with what he's seeing, these children being separated? >> reporter: he caused mass confusion on capitol hill when he seemed to dismiss the republican compromise on immigration. the white house had to clarify saying that it's actually the democratic bill that he is opposed to. so this trip tomorrow is really about rallying republicans on the hill over this issue that has vexed them for years. you know, the president said he doesn't want to see these images, but again david, his critics say he could stop this himself. >> cecilia vega, i know you'll have much more on "world news tonight." robin. david, as you know the tension at the border reaching a boiling point as protestors and politicians demand change. marcus moore is on the ground in mcallen, texas, and has the latest. good morning, marcus. >> reporter: robin, good morning i'm just outside the border patrol's busiest processing center in the region. and over the weekend, we were allowed to go inside to look at the operation where more than 1,000 people are being held. this place along with several

[ chanting ] >> reporter: to the u.s./mexico border, protesters marching by the hundreds outside a facility near el paso, and farther south in mcallen, where more than 1,000 detainees are being held temporarily. in these images released by the department of homeland security, you can see the fenced-in cells and bare floors.
7:06 am
>> i don't think this should be happening and something has to be done. >> reporter: amidst the furor over increased border enforcement and in some cases family separations. >> there's no policy to separate families. the zero tolerance policy is intended to deter people from breaking the law, adults, adults. if they are accompanied by a child, that child is temporarily separated from them as they go through a judicial process. >> reporter: and former trump chief strategist steve bannon pushing the white house agenda on "this week." >> the morality is the law. they're criminals when they come across illegally and that's why they're getting separated. >> reporter: yet, this morning, the voices of dissent not wavering outside these walls or on social media. singer john legend writing, reunite the families at the border and we can talk about father's day. this morning, thousands remain in custody including the most innocent, the children, caught in the middle of an adult fight.
7:07 am
and this morning, immigration officials are arguing that the temporary family separations that have happened are no different than when an american citizen is accused of a crime and going through the judicial process. >> marcus, as you know being inside that center we've heard about all the different rules such as the detainees cannot be held or touched. we're talking about children, even if they're crying they can't be held or touched which is very hard for people to hear. we're hearing from the department of homeland security secretary kirstjen nielsen who's responding and giving the administration's response this morning, marcus? >> reporter: that's right, robin. secretary nielsen tweeting, quote, we do not have a policy of separating families at the border, period. robin. >> all right, marcus, thank you. michael. >> thank you so much, robin. as those tensions erupt over the zero tolerance policy, a border chase in texas turned deadly. this suv, packed with undocumented immigrants,

good morning, america. it's 8:00 a.m. and the battle at the border as tensions reach a boiling point. protests erupting across the country over the trump administration's zero tolerance policy that's separating young migrant children from their parents. images like this one getting so much attention, as former first lady laura bush calls it cruel and immoral and what first lady melania trump is saying now. also this morning, a flash flooding emergency pummels the midwest. roads, homes and cars under water, residents warned to shelter in place. blockbuster surprise. beyonce and jay-z drop a joint album over the weekend.

8:02 am
>> he posted this on instagram. he says, look, they're getting ice cream. all on his lap. look at this. he said you can tell they're my kids by their red eyes. you know how the camera always gets the flash. >> tell his kids by the red eyes? >> because it's of the flash. happens to me all the time too. >> you can tell it's a monday, can't you? we'll have more with jim coming up. first we begin with that firestorm over the zero tolerance policy at the border. nearly 2,000 children taken from parents accused of illegally crossing over a six-week period. let's go back to our senior white house correspondent cecilia vega with the details again. good morning again, cecilia. >> reporter: hi, robin. the controversy is so huge it has first ladies who normally don't weigh in on policy now intervening. first lady melania trump through a spokeswoman says she hates to see children separated from their families and says she hopes both sides will come together on immigration reform and, quote, we need to be a country that follows all laws but also a country that governs with heart.
8:03 am
she is now facing some pretty serious backlash online with many people calling her complicit in this very controversial policy. she's not alone. in an op-ed former first lady laura bush also weighed in. she is calling this policy cruel and immoral. we're now hearing from one prominent pediatrician who visited one of these shelters and met with some of the children there. she said workers are forbidden from hugging, touching these kids. they're not allowed to physically comfort them. remember, these are kids who are separated from their parents. president trump on his part heads to capitol hill tomorrow where lawmakers have three immigration bills before them. one of which would stop this policy of separating families, and you know this, robin. the president says these are democrats who are to blame for these laws. i should say this law. that is an outright falsehood. this is the president. it's a policy created by his administration, robin. >> clarify that because we are hearing and people have said, well, this is a policy that is long-standing. this is different.
8:04 am
can you explain to people how? >> reporter: past administrations have decided -- have made it their choice to not follow the law as president trump is interpreting it. he is saying that this is about zero tolerance on the border and that is why these families are being separated. he says they've crossed illegally. these families, these parents will face prosecution and that's why they are being separated from their children, but make no mistake about it. this is a policy by his administration. other administrations have not interpreted it this way. >> as you said, the first lady is saying we are a land of laws but you got to have some heart as well when dealing with this. all right, thank you so much, cecilia. michael. now to the extreme rain and flooding in the midwest. nearly a foot of rain in 24 hours turning roads into rivers. the east will feel record-breaking heat today. ginger is back. let's start with all that flooding. >> these are difficult images to really capture or to imagine because i know this part of the country. it is gorgeous country but it's been washed away this weekend.

[ applause ]
8:20 am
i just looked down and i was like, whoo. >> hey pittsburgh. >> i know. i know. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. now, as i was saying, to the "gma" health alert about losing weight. love you, kelly. >> thank you. >> to lose pain, affects more than 2 million people worldwide. many are overweight or obese and a new study says a 20% weight loss could reduce joint pain by up to 25%. >> let's get right to it. we've known for a while that being overweight or obese is really bad for the joints. what we didn't know is how much weight do you need to lose to make an impact and is more better. that's what the study looked like in wake forest in north carolina. they followed people for a year and a half and they found that losing just 5% of their starting body weight definitely helped on pain, mobility, inflammatory markers, but losing more definitely was better.
8:21 am
so even over 20% over time gradually and safely made a big, big difference. >> you're going to demonstrate what you're talking about. >> little mini med school lesson. we know that overweight and obesity is bad for two reasons, one, inflammation, two, this is pure physics. if you imagine these sponges as the cartilage in your knee, for every one pound of being overweight it exerts four pounds of pressure. this is about four pounds of weight. your joint can tolerate it pretty well. if you're five pounds overweight, that is the equivalent of 20 pounds of pressure on your knee joints. when this cartilage is compressed, it's like riding a car on bare rims, tires. you're bone and bone and that's what causes so much trouble. >> you're certified in obesity medicine. i know this is a catch 22 because you want people to exercise but how can they when they're in pain. >> we have to understand, i just demonstrated being five pounds overweight. people who are 100 pounds
8:22 am

8:33 am
cream. >> right. >> you work -- here you are with five and you still manage to find one-on-one time. how do you do that? >> a lot of it is just -- one-on-one time is me usually eating a meal with them. special daddy time going to a restaurant. this is pass trammy, stuff like that. any parent will tell you it's a struggle, right, because it's -- but that quality time you always want to find. >> we should give folks the breakdown, three boys, two girls. >> right. >> and you said your wife is a special breed. >> it almost sounds insulting. >> a little bit but i know what you mean. >> she's -- you know -- i mean, i don't have any energy for this. i didn't think that i was going to be a parent, but she's like -- she's amazing. she can do so many things and she's tireless. it's impressive. >> let's talk about the movie a little bit here, okay, so we see -- one person is happy about

we got a whole crowd from michigan apparently this morning. big rapids right here. thank you for being here. how about the heat, do you guys feel that? it's going to be on. a lot of folks are going to end up at 90me 90. the severe storm forecast is way up in northern new york and parts of new england. damaging wind and hail are the primary threats. that happens this afternoon and evening. west of us here good monday morning, i'm abc 7 news meteorologist mike nicco. still pretty cloudy at 9:00, sunshine at the coast for the rest of us. temperatures lower than avevevee michael, i was wrong, not
8:41 am
all michiganens, we have some iowans here. >> we'll take them all, no matter where they're from. i'm here now with bobby bones, called the most powerful man in country music. millions of people tune in to his hit radio show every week and we loved him on the latest season of "american idol." now he's out with a new book called "fail until you don't: fight, grind, repeat." it's about overcoming life's many challenges. thank you for joining us and welcome to the show. >> do they love me on "american idol"? >> we love you on "american idol." we love you today. and forbes magazine loves you. how does it feel for them to call you the most powerful man in country music? >> i guess good? i don't know if that's true but it's good, yeah. >> that's all you got is goed? >> i try to cultivate new artists. that's a big deal to see people when they're starting out and mentor them. before the "idol" thing i was trying to do that in nashville, with artists in nashville, so
8:42 am
the "idol" thing was a cool extension. >> to be a mentor or "idol" and you see these talented young people trying to become stars or trying to become successful in whatever field they're in, what are some of the common challenges that they face that every day people face? >> a lot of us go we like this end result so how do we get to that end result the quickest. what a lot of people don't see and even the contestants don't realize there are baby steps. that's how you get to the end. instead of -- we'll use i had dol for example, instead are going to the top four it's what's my next song, my next note. with people here, you work in an office, what's the next hour, the next half-hour. you. how are you going to get the quarterback the next play. it's not always about the final score of the game but what can i do in the next incident. >> you're clearly a success story. why did you name the book "fail
8:43 am
until you don't"? >> i failed a lot, man. most of our life we look at instagram and go, man, i wish that was me, it looks so easy. in reality the most successful people are the people that have actually failed the most. it's not that we're super talented. it's that we can fall and get back up and not only get back up but learn from that at the same time. that's what i found to be the common denominator with a lot of people that are super successful. >> super successful people in your book, steve jobs, stephen king and elvis presley, some of the most successful people in their fields but you use them in aur book as an example. let's put our audience to the test. grab your clicker and guess which one of these three men faced failure, steve jobs, stephen king or elvis presley. who do you think or "d," all of the above. what did the audience say? they say -- boy, this is taking a while. that's what i say. oh, all of the above seems to be
8:44 am
the winner. what's your answer? >> it is all of the above. yeah, you all win. [ applause ] you all get to go to mike's house later and have dinner. congratulations. we're all go over. >> yeah. ring the bell to see who shows up to answer the door. no one. >> i think a lot of these guys, if you look at elvis, elvis went to play the grand ole opry and they said you aren't a good singer, you should try annika pella group. eastern stephen king had a stack of letters on his door that were rejection slips. he quit. he threw "carrie" into the garbage and his wife picked it up. >> and one of the best selling books of all time. >> he sold millions. that's really what it's all about. it's about everyone is going to fail all the time but how many times can you get back up and do
8:45 am
it begin. i wrote this book because sometimes i read these books and they're either preach it to me and they're yelling at me. i just wanted to write practical advice for people going through practical things. i'm just a guy from arkansas, a small town, trying to make it, man. >> now you have a lot of success. thank you very much. appreciate you sharing it with everybody. it is something when you talk to someone instead of at someone.

8:49 am
>> i woke up this morning and i'm like, wow, today i'll be on "good morning america" with robin roberts. that takes a minute to sink in. >> jay-z, when you met him, what advice did he give you when he signed you? >> the most memorable thing he said to me was, don't worry about conforming to what's on the radio, you just create art the way you see it and it's our job to catch up to who you are. don't try to conform to who you think we are. do you and we'll do our best to learn who it is that you are. >> that's beautiful. i love what we're seeing right here. you want victory to perform? do you want to hear victory perform? the single off her upcoming album, here's victory with "open your eyes."
