morning. breaking overnight. the cockpit voice recorder from the doomed lion air jet recovered. what will it reveal about that deadly crash moments after takeoff? new this morning, images inside the home where jayme closs was held as her family speaks out. the moment they found out she was alive and new details about the 13-year-old's captivity and escapes as the suspect guess before the judge. elizabeth smart joins us here. and sweet victory. the nfl's final four now set. will tom brady lead the patriots past the chiefs to their third straight super bowl? and will the saints knock off the rams after soaring past the eagles in an epic comeback? and we do say good morning, america. get ready for it, who dat? thasucan eiting . >> you got the colors represented this morning.

>> that's right. didn't waste any time with that. >> you guys hear that? the song, "sugar." it must be one thing. maroon 5 is officially confirmed as the super bowl halftime act. we have details about who else will perform with them coming up. >> will the government still be shut down when it's time for the super bowl? now in day 24, the longest shutdown ever and that's where we begin. >> air travelers across the nation are feeling the impact as tsa employees who are not getting paid call out sick, missing shifts at more than double last year's rate. in houston, the tsa forced to shut down a checkpoint. victor oquendo is there and has the latest for us. good morning, victor. >> reporter: good morning, robin, this place is a ghost town. for the second day in a row, the security checkpoint here at orge bush intercontinental 's airport is shut down. those are the ticket counters right there behind me. they are empty as well. you can imagine what this place would normally look like on a busy monday morning. let's show you the security checkpoint here. t peon isighexce for otherters rein.

we're hearing from the tsa this morning. they say due to staffing issues associated with the government shutdown, they were forced to close it. over the weekend, a similar sight at miami international airport as those sick-outs increase nationwide. now, flights are still taking off from terminal "b." but if you're flying out, you have to give yourself extra time because you'll have to go through other security checkpoints. the key word is patience. for more, let's go to david kerley at reagan national airport. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, victor. these checkpoints are the spot that most average americans are going to feel the impacts of this shutdown, especially in the coming days. the call-out rate yesterday was nearly 8%. that's more than double what it was a year ago. and tsa is not going to change its security protocols. so, that means fewer checkpoints like this, potentially longer lines. the question is, the officers that you see behind me who make between $30,000-$35,000 on average, are they out looking for jobs because the shutdown is

continuing and they have to pay th some contingencies possible for tsa, retention bonuses, maybe h. but americans in the coming days are going to feel the shutdown more and more at these checkpoints across the country. george? >> thank you, david. the center of the shutdown, the battle over a border wall. according to our latest poll, 53% of americans blame president trump and republicans for the stalemate. 29% blame congressional democrats. but the poll also finds that support for the border wall has been rising over the last year. i want to go t blame. but the big question, is it enough to change their approach? >> reporter: so far, this growing public pressure is not making them blink. right now, the two sides are not even talking about talking. congress was at home this weekend. lawmakers back in their districts while the president was at the white house tweeting, insisting that he does, quote, have a plan on the shutdown and is ready to sign.

but we're now in day 24, but still no one knows what the president is willing to sign, where he's willing to compromise, l he's been discussing is the possibility of declaring a national emergency to go around congress to build his wall. but there are some signs that republicans may be concerned that this stalemate may be hurting the party. lindsey graham, one of the president's top allies, is now suggesting the president temporarily reopen the government so they have time to negotiate, george. >> one of the reasons they haven't had enough pressure is that 82% of americans say they have not been inconvenienced. 18% say they're personally affected. of course that could change if we see more reports like we just saw from victor and david. >> reporter: george, both sides may need to feel some reaction from their constituents before they react. 18% say they feel personally affected, now, according to our poll, 79% say it would be a serious problem or a crisis if

this were to continue. if past shutdowns are any indication, we'll only see change only when they feel public pressure. >> we are already in record territory. mary, thanks very much. >> these workers live all over the country so i think it's just a matter of time before the lawmakers feel the pressure and take it back to washington. let's stay in washington. that deadly winter storm killing at least 12 people. causing hundreds of accidents. stephanie ramos is there in washington where they are facing their biggest snowfall in three years. good morning, stephanie. >> reporter: cecilia, good morning. the snow has finally stopped falling here in d.c. we can actually see some of the buildings this morning. but yesterday the snow was nonstop, more than 10 inches of snow falling here in our nation's capital. as you mentioned, this is the biggest snowstorm in three years. and this storm not just impacting people in this area, but across the country. that massive winter blast dumping deadly snow and ice from the midwest to the east coast, leaving millions digging out

this morning. more than 100,000 customers still without power. icy roads proving too dangerous to travel. killing at least 12 people. in illinois, an 11-year-old boy rescued after plunging into an icy pond. whiteout conditions. blinding drivers. wreaking havoc on highways across much of the country. this sand truck flipping over in virginia. one of more than 300 crashes reported. the governor declaring a state of emergency. at least 800 crashes reported in missouri. roads littered with abandoned cars. these trucks stuck bumper to bumper for hours. >> crazy. >> reporter: this pickup truck saving a skidding 18-wheeler, hauling it down the highway. nearly 20 inches of snow snapping branches, burying cars beneath it. airlines also impacted. this delta airlines flight sliding off the runway in cincinnati. icy tarmacs leaving nearly 1,000

flights cancelled nationwide and more than 3,000 delayed. guys, it is icy out here this morning. if you're walking or driving, the best thing to do is stay home if you can. many schools in the area are closed. the main concern now is refreezing. and something else people are preparing for is another blast of winter weather later this week. robin? >> want everyone to take care. speaking of that, we're going to go outside to rob now with the forecast. and as stephanie said, much of the country looking at a very deep freeze, rob? >> yeah, we're in it now. we'll get waves of cold. mix it with the rainfall you have the ice, that's the other component to this. north carolina, greensboro, a heavy snowstorm earlier in the winter and they had a heavy ice as well. a lot of power outages, especially across virginia and north carolina, because of that. let's look at the numbers. it's pulling down the cold air. windchills in the single numbers across parts of new york and new england. teens in new york city, d.c.,

d we'lanwafresh snow cover is. in the week. the windchills, 30 below in the center part of the country. as that trough digs all the way to the gulf coast, tha could dig up a potential winter storm and a big one. as we head towards the weekend we'll be tracking that. >> busy looking map. rob, thanks very much. now to president trump and the russia investigation after two explosive new reports. first, "the new york times" that the fbi investigated trump for being a russian agent after the firing of james comey. and "the washington post" reporting that the president took steps to conceal the conversations with russian president vladimir putin. terry moran has the latest. >> reporter: the president flies to louisiana today for the farm bureau convention. that's a typical presidential event. even as he goes about his daily business, these reports offer more and more disturbing evidence that from the very beginning, the subject of russia and vladimir putin has been an extraordinarily sensitive one for donald trump.

as president trump heads to louisiana this morning, two new reports are putting the white house on the defensive. one involves the private talks between the president and vladimir putin. >> i had a conversation like every president does. we had a great conversation. >> reporter: trump fired back against this "washington post" report. it claims the president went to extraordinary lengths to hide his private conversations with the russian leader. >> i'm not keeping anything under wraps. i couldn't care less. i mean, it's so ridiculous. >> reporter: "the post" reports the president actually confiscated his own interpreter's notes on his meeting with putin in hamburg and shut out members of his administration. >> why is he so chummy with vladimir putin? it raises serious questions. >> reporter: it could spur the democrats to subpoena the interpreters. the white house is also pushing back hard against a "new york times" report that says after fbi director james comey was fired, the fbi opened a counterintelligence investigation into whether the president had been working for

russia against american interests. a charge that infuriated president. >> so i'm going to ask you, are you now or have you ever worked for russia, mr. president? >> i think it's the most insulting thing i've ever asked. it's the most insulting article i have ever had written. and if you read the article, you would see they found absolutely nothing. >> reporter: no collusion. that's the president's mantra on this. as robert mueller racks up the guilty pleas and newly empowered house democrats gear up their investigators, whatever that story is, that is coming out. >> we'll hear part of it on february 7th, michael cohen set to testify before congress. the president speaking out. and the house chairman warning the president against interfering with the investigation. >> reporter: that's right, george. michael cohen, the president's longtime lawyer and fixer, has decided to speak in public.

house democrats are concerned about the kind of things that president trump is saying about him. as you pointed out, this might be an obstruction of justice. they want him to testify. >> terry moran, thanks very much. robin. to the massive strike in l.a. 30,000 public school teachers are set to walk the picket lines this morning in the second largest school system in the country. kayna whitworth is there and has those details for us. good morning, kayna. >> reporter: hey, robin, good morning. so the teachers' union here in los angeles saying this is a last resort, but confirming its 30,000 members will strike today after rejecting the district administration's latest deal. now the two sides have been going back and forth on this issue in an effort to avoid a strike. the teachers' union saying they need several issues resolved, including salaries, reduced class size. some teachers saying they have classes with 40 kids in them. they also want nurses hired. the district is saying they simply cannot afford the union's demands. this has the potential of course to be incredibly disruptive for

the more than 600,000 k through 12 students and their families, but the district saying this morning, schools will be providing every student with a safe environment and meals. so they will be open here today, robin. >> how have they prepared for the strike, the schools, kayna? >> reporter: yeah, robin, so, what they have done is hired about 400 substitute teachers. they have also redeployed 2,000 district staff members that have teaching credentials, as well. this hasn't happened in some 30 years. but robin, we also have to keep in mind that the student athletes here will go without practices or games until this is resolved. >> all right, kayna, thank you. breaking news for our viewers in the west. active shooter at a u.p.s. processing facility. they're working with law enforcement there. take a look at the scene just moments ago. according to our station, police officers were seen ducking behind vehicles.

at this moment, no word on injuries. this is a developing situation. we'll have the latest for you on abc.com. thank you. and that breaking news overnight, a cockpit voice recorder from the deadly lion airplane crash in indonesia has been found. the plane, a brand-new 737 max eight, went down in october killing all 189 people on board. the data recorder was found a few months ago. it pointed to a problem with the plane's automatic safety system. no word yet about what this new cockpit recording reveals. george. okay, let's turn -- look at that smile on your face -- the nfl playoffs. the patriots are going to take on the chiefs. robin's saints of course defeated the eagles last night. we're learning -- they had a dramatic win. and we're also learning who will take the stage for the halftime show in the super bowl, maroon 5. janai norman is here with more. this halftime show wasn't easy to pull together. >> reporter: headlining the

super bowl was thought to be a huge honor. it's been a tough spot to fill. many artists distancing themselves from the big show in support of colin kaepernick and other players taking a knee to protest racial injustice. ♪ baby give me one more night >> reporter: it's official. this year's super bowl halftime show has finally found a headliner, maroon 5. ♪ i just want to be deep in your love ♪ >> reporter: maroon 5 had been the unofficial pick for months but reportedly struggled to find guest performers partly due to backlash over the nfl's handling of colin kaepernick and players' right to protest. ♪ >> reporter: rihanna reportedly turned down the offer to perform, deciding totalidarity s quarterback turned free agent. comedian amy schumer announced she wouldn't appear in any super bowl ads this year. >> my fellow americans, they say we're a nation divided. >> reporter: and in october,

even calling out maroon 5 in an instagram post saying, i think it would be cool if maroon 5 backed out of super bowl. stand up for your brothers and sisters of color. ♪ >> reporter: overnight, nfl posting this promo on instagram, announcing rappers travis scott and big boi will join adam levine and company on stage. even with those acts announced the naacp is asking those performers to reconsider participating. travis scott reportedly only agreed to participate if the nfl agreed to donate to a social justice fighting dream corps. it seems like he kind of found a happy medium there. >> thank you so much. and there were two other great moments from last night's games. how is this for sportsmanship? eagles quarterback nick foles surrounded by saints in the traditional postgame prayer circle. that was a moment. and history was made last night. sarah thomas, the first woman to work as an on-field official in a postseason game. she was a down judge during the patriots' rout of the chargers.

i had a chance to speak with her on "gma" here in 2015 after she became the first woman to become a full-time official in league history. what does it take to be an official in the nfl? >> extreme focus. be very driven and dedicated to your job and training. >> she is the real deal. and a real trailblazer. she was the first woman to officiate a major college football game as well as a bowl game. she is a native of mississippi so i'm sure she's a saints fan, as well. >> this is going to last all week. let's go back to rob. >> good morning again, guys. we have several storms kicking into the west. we'll probably see more of this, a mudslide in malibu. look at the rain that's coming in towards southern california, santa maria, los angeles, santa barbara, san diego. all under flood watches through the rest of today. another pulse coming in. the trajectory, south to san francisco. the bigger one gets the entire state wednesday and thursday. this one dumps feet of snow in the mountains. we'll probably see flash

government partially shut down so why not have a snowball figh ten inches of snow there in the city of our nation's capital. i was down there yesterday. it was great snow-packing snow in the national mall. look at that. talk about a flash mob, no, they had a flash snowball fight. nobody was hurt, as far as we're understanding. probably some snowmen, as well. >> make the most of the moment. all right, rob, thank you. coming up, we have the family of jayme closs speaking out as they are finally reunited after her months in captivity. and we have new details as the suspect heads to court today. and a new alert about the flu. the cdc is out with new numbers. we have an experiment showing just how fast the flu can spread in a classroom. that's coming up right here on "gma." om. that's coming up on "gma." can spread in a classroom. that's coming up on "gma." ...th. man 1: ...this is my body of proof. man 2: proof of less joint pain... woman 3: ...and clearer skin. man 3: proof that i can fight psoriatic arthritis...

about that. you have done endless work in that regard, elizabeth. you have a unique perspective. what possibly could jayme be going through in these early days back with her family? >> right now, at this point in time, i feel like it's very, very vital for her to rebuild those relationships with family. because, unfortunately, her family was brutally torn apart. this is just a very important time to try to rebuild, to come together again, to start a fresh to try to create a new normal. because, unfortunately, there is no going back to the old normal. there's only a new normal. >> and you can understand why officials are saying they are giving her all the time she needs to tell her story, and that's the right path to take, isn't it? >> absolutely. everyone should be giving her as much time and space as she needs. and if she doesn't want to talk, then i think that's her complete prerogative. >> you so beautifully wrote that in your instagram.

you said, everybody, do not speculate about the details of her captivity. that is so important to keep in mind, isn't it? >> absolutely. even i can't speculate what she went through. i can only go off my own experiences. and a lot of the things that i went through, i was very embarrassed of. i was ashamed of. i didn't want people to know what i had been through. and i can only imagine that she, too, feels the same way. >> and you said this does not have to be a defining moment for her just like it was not for you. how can she recover? what help can you give her? >> it's so easy to feel that this is going to define me for the rest of my life, this is going to be all anyone ever knows me for. i know i certainly have felt that way. but i want her to know that this doesn't have to be that. >> beautifully said. elizabeth smart, thank you so much. we're glad that you're doing as well as you are. we know that gives jayme's family hope, as well. you take care, elizabeth.

welcome back to "gma." and as we hit the peak of flu season, look at this map. it shows how symptoms have spread across the country since december. the cdc says up to 7 million people have caught the flu this season. t.j. holmes went to a school to see how easily germs can spread. hey, t.j. >> reporter: good morning, george. get this, some hospitals in this country have actually said, hey kids, unless you're a patient here, don't show up. they have banned kids from hospitals. they're trying to prevent the spread of disease. we know kids in particular, schools, are prime places for the spread of germs. kids are little petri dishes. you've heard that saying, but it's something else when you actually see it. oh! the lips? you see those bright spots? those could be germs, and they're all over these kids. you have it all in your hair. >> remember the genre we talked about yesterday?

>> reporter: but just a few hours earlier, not a trace. "gma" teamed up with miss schaffsma's 5th grade class at chicago christian school to demonstrate how rapidly germs can spread. we use a harmless powder called glo germ. who's first? we pulled two students out of class. oh, yeah, see. we do that. look what happens? it comes on me, and that's how germs spread. we follow the students' every move and in less than a minute we see aiden touch the water fountain. the water fountain of course a popular spot for students. one study tells us that up to 2.7 million bacteria per square inch are on the spigot. it has more than 800 times the amount found on a toilet seat. essentially it's now ground zero for the spread of the powder. once in the classroom, both aiden and mckenzie use this smartboard pen that every single kid in class touches. after an hour, i head into the classroom while the kids are at recess to check for signs of the glo germ.

i feel like a crime scene investigator. that's funky. the pen is covered in powder. the students library, and we reapply the glo germ. next, the kids go to music and then back to the classroom where they don't know what's coming. hello, everybody. my name is t.j. holmes. and i am a correspondent with a show called "good morning america." we check the students. oh, my goodness! 8 of the 26 students in the class, not including aiden and mckenzie, have several spots on their hands and faces. >> your ears! >> reporter: and on their desks and chairs. >> oh, my goodness! >> reporter: hard places to keep clean. >> even with the wet wipes, disgusting. >> reporter: but now the kids tell us they're going to be a little more careful to avoid germs. >> wash more thoroughly. make sure you're not touching anyone. >> reporter: i'm not touching hands, man. it's nasty.

all right, this is a typical school. the reminders. always wash your hands. soap and water preferable. if you can use the sanitizer, that's fine as well. always sneeze into the arm. remember to wash the hands before lunch, that's key. the kids, send them to school with a water bottle so they don't have the use the water fountain at school. good reminders. again, my 6-year-old, i said to her one day, why are you so dirty? she looked me in the eye, i'm a child. some of this, we're kids. we're nasty. and some of it, that's why you get the flu vaccine. you can still get it. it can mitigate the flu if they do get it. kids are just nasty sometimes. >> there you go. >> ugh. coming up, what lady gaga and glenn close did when they won the same -- the same award last night. won the same -- the same award last night. these days we're all stressed. i hear you, sister. stress can affect our minds. i call this dish, "stress." stress can also affect our bodies. so, i'm partnering with cigna to remind you that your emotional and physical health are more connected than you think. go in for your annual check-up. and be open with your doctor about anything you feel.
