7:02 am
she gave credit and was very gracious at the end to her opponent but that was tough. >> tough, tough loss for her. we'll have more on that coming up. but we're going to begin though with a new threat from a winter storm heading east. schools are closed in the midwest this morning as some areas brace for up to ten inches of snow. >> the storm is leading to thousands of cancelled and delayed flights, even shutting down an airport because of icy runways, alex perez is in chicago with the very latest. good morning, alex. >> reporter: hey, good morning, michael. from snow to ice and now rain, it has been a relentless week of winter weather that has made getting around almost impossible. a deep freeze pummeling the plains creating chaos across the midwest. frozen roads too dangerous to travel littered with crashes. trucks swerving off roads jackknifed. cars stuck in snow banks. this morning, new video showing the dangers of icy conditions from the storm over the weekend. watch as this oncoming car spins out in wisconsin. this deputy leaping into the
7:03 am
median, narrowly escaping. dangerous travel conditions shutting down roads. in colorado, parts of i-70 shut down in whiteout conditions. 100-mile stretch of i-80 closing in wyoming. in kansas, a 19-year-old woman killed in an icy wreck after losing control of her car on the highway. the investigating trooper making an emotional plea. >> it's devastating. i mean, please consider your safety in your travels. >> reporter: this delta plane hauled away by crews in indiana after sliding off the icy taxiway during takeoff. and just another sign of how bad the conditions are in some places, the airport in detroit remains closed because of those icy conditions. robin. >> yes, it does tell you how bad it is still. all right, alex, thank you. that storm is on the move
7:04 am
bringing snow and heavy rain to millions. ginger, of course, tracking the latest. good morning, ginger. >> it is bad. you see the iowa state, ames, iowa, where that sheet of ice was then covered by snow. you look at abilene, kansas, where the spinouts were happening. and now this is all moving east. here's who needs to look out, anybody highlighted on the map here, it's a lot of folks, from michigan up through the northeast of new england, down to birmingham, alabama. let me tell you why, because the severe storm part goes through the southeast. then you go on the northern side and you have all of this warmth, all of the rain on top of, say, two feet of snow you got near albany and you get flood alerts that are all the way up. they're popping up from philadelphia to new york. you're going to be very wet tomorrow morning and then very cold again, george. >> so messy. okay, ginger, thanks very much. we go to washington for the latest on the government shutdown. 33 days in, no talks to break the stalemate. but the senate will vote on dueling republican and democratic proposals tomorrow, just one day before federal workers will miss another paycheck. our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce has the state of play on capitol hill.
7:05 am
mary, these votes mary, these votes tomorrow may be just for show. >> reporter: yeah, george, exactly, and that's because while there is a renewed sense of urgency here this morning neither side is backing down yet so while we will see votes on two competing plans tomorrow, but they're both expected to fail. one of them is the president's proposed compromise. that would offer temporary protections for dreamers in exchange for the $5.7 billion the president has been demanding for his wall. but critics say the bill also sharply weakens the asylum system and would completely eliminate some countries from temporary protections. george, the whole bill is a nonstarter for democrats. the other plan is the democrats' proposal that would temporarily re-open the government but not provide any funding for the president's wall. that plan is a no-go with the president so we're going to see action here tomorrow, and while these votes will test the resolve of both parties, michael, no real progress here still. michael. >> all right, thank you, mary. hopefully one of those plans comes through because there are hundreds of thousands of workers who are preparing to miss
7:06 am
another paycheck, and there are new concerns about how the shutdown will affect your taxes as more unpaid irs employees are skipping work and now the shutdown is putting some at risk of losing their homes. abc's steve osunsami has the latest. good morning, steve. >> reporter: good morning to you, michael. we are at the martin luther king national historic site in downtown atlanta. for a while there all of this was going to be closed on the king holiday, but a grant from delta airlines saved the day. until february 3rd, then all of these workers and this park will be out of a job and be closed. the top brass at the coast guard is now speaking out about service members without paychecks having to get their groceries at food banks. >> i find it unacceptable that coast guard men and women have to rely on food pantries and donations to get through day-to-day life as service members. >> reporter: cordelia prathren of montgomery county, maryland, worries she could be out on the streets because of the
7:07 am
government shutdown. her housing grant hasn't been paid since december. >> i may be in line to become a homeless person again. >> reporter: many federal workers, some who are working for free, will miss their second paycheck this friday, and from here on out they have to pay their dental and vision insurance premiums out of their already empty pockets. workers are starting to quit. this is the resignation letter from an air traffic controller in madison, wisconsin. due to the financial hardship as a result of the government shutdown, i am forced to resign from my position and seek employment elsewhere. i hope for my co-workers and friends that the shutdown ends. mia williams and jana frierson have each worked for the tsa for more than a decade, they can't pay the rent and begging utility companies to give them a break. >> i absolutely love what i do there, and quitting my job right
7:08 am
now, i cannot even fathom that and like mia said, you know, we're scared, we have families. >> reporter: some companies are telling them the bills are still due. george. >> thank you, steve. that's why a government shutdown has never been allowed to go on for this long. a big open question what will happen with the state of the union? white house still wants to go ahead with the speech, but house speaker nancy pelosi could prevent the president from delivering in the house. so the white house is preparing two different versions of the speech. let's get more from cecilia vega. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: george, republicans want to force speaker e pelosi's hand here. a game of chicken. speaker pelosi to officially disinvite president trump from from delivering the state of union in six days. now, in the event that that happens just as you said the white house is now, we're told by sources, has prepared two different versions of a speech. one would be delivered on tuesday night, traditionally as it would in front of congress.
7:09 am
another to be delivered at another location, likely a political rally. you'll remember that speaker pelosi had cited security concerns as one of the reasons for her saying the president should not deliver the speech next tuesday. the white house says they've spoken to the secret service and homeland security, they say he's safe to give the speech. george, this morning the ball is back in speaker pelosi's court. >> we'll wait to see what she does. meantime, this has now gone on into its 33rd day, the president has been taking a fair amount of heat. and new polls show he's bearing more of the blame as his approval rate something going down, yet the president thinks he's winning this. do white house insiders agree? >> reporter: it really depends on the day and minute. i can say this, the frustration inside the white house is is iceaiting to ng the ens ownt. wear on them. the president will be back out today trying to sell this.
7:10 am
hosting conservative leads here at the white house. he says republicans will not crave. we'll see. >> we will be watching. cecilia, thanks very much. also in politics another democrat entering the race for president this morning. his name is pete buttigieg wrapping up eight years as mayor of south bend, indiana. he volunteered in afghanistan while serving as mayor. also a rhodes scholar, openly gay. buttigieg's now the ninth democrat to join the race and he's not even the youngest democrat running. congresswoman tulsi gabbard of hawaii, a few months, quite a range there, if joe biden gets in, almost 40 years older. >> and as you said, this list is going to continue to grow. >> could end up with 20, 25. >> just starting. >> thank you. also in washington, the supreme court has decided to allow the trump administration's partial ban on transgender people in the military to go into effect for now as appeals continue. the justices voted 5-4 in favor. the temporary move reverses a lower court order that had put that policy on hold. the pentagon estimates nearly
7:11 am
9,000 service members identify as transgender. no immediate action is being taken against those serving right now. and turning now to that scare in the skies that brought one of the busiest airports in the country to a standstill and flights in and out of newark airport stopped last night after a drone was spotted near the path of arriving flights. our senior transportation correspondent david kerley, he's all on top of this. and david, one pilot said they missed it by, what, 30 feet? >> reporter: that was one of the reports, robin, which delayed thousands of passengers including this one and this morning, authorities are trying to find the person responsible for putting a drone reportedly in an extremely dangerous place. the search for that culprit and new questions this morning after the drone scare wreaked havoc here at newark airport. >> there's some drone activity on the final and it's at a critical point. >> reporter: two different crews spotting the drone flying close to nearby teterboro airport in new jersey and that is right on the arrival path of planes to
7:12 am
newark. the drone violating two laws. it was seen at 3500 feet. that's eight times higher than the 400-foot max for flight and too close to an airport breaking the regulation to stay five miles away. >> missed the drone by about 30 feet off the right wing. >> reporter: officials put a hold on arriving aircraft while others were diverted or held at their point of departure, a groundstop at one of the nation's busiest airports impacting thousands of travelers. this video demonstrating the damage a drone might cause if it hit a jet liner. >> the pilot got on and basically said, there's been a drone flying over newark and we're going to be in a holding pattern for some amount of time. >> reporter: according to the faa, there were well over 2,000 reported drone sightings by u.s. pilots last year. this comes a month after those drone sightings outside of london that caused an airport to shut down for nearly two days. one of the world's largest drone makers calls that hysteria and
7:13 am
in a statement, is questioning whether or not the pilots last night actually saw drones as they were coming in here to newark international airport. michael, back to you. >> all right, david, thank you. definitely a safety concern. now to a health alert about a measles outbreak in the pacific northwest. there are now 23 confirmed cases, most of them affecting children ten years and under and most of those children were not vaccinated. abc's janai norman is here with the details on this story. good morning, janai. guys, good morning. so officials have declared a public health emergency in clark county near the washington/oregon border, the epicenter of the newest measles outbreak. children particularly hard hit. of the 23 confirmed cases you mentioned, 18 are in children 10 years and under. officials have already identified dozens of public places where people may have been exposed and say part of the cause for concern is the low vaccination rate in the area. of those diagnosed so far, 20 were not vaccinated.
7:14 am
this latest outbreak comes after the cdc reported 349 confirmed cases across 26 states last year, the second most in nearly two decades. >> so, how contagious is this? >> okay, so consider this, on average one person with measles can infect 12 to 18 others and the infectious droplets can remain in the air for about two hours so that means you can become infected without personal contact and that is why officials are so strongly urging everyone, get vaccinated. the cdc says it is 97% effective on those who get the recommended two doses and that it can help even 72 hours after exposure so a couple days after being exposed you can still be covered. >> it's not too late. >> if you don't get a vaccination you're putting others at risk, that's the point. >> absolutely. >> i think we need to remember that. >> thank you, janai. now to the reaction coming in to the oscar nominations of a diverse group of movies recognized and some making history like "black panther," the first superhero film ever nominated for best picture.
7:15 am
eva pilgrim is here with that. good morning, eva. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the nominations are in and you know everyone has an opinion on the list. who racked up, who got snubbed. this morning the stars react. melissa mccarthy posted this celebratory video alongside co-star richard e. grant nominated for best supporting actor and the film's director, marielle heller. heller did not receive a nomination for best director. in fact, women were shut out of the category altogether. ♪ maybe it's time >> reporter: another surprise omission from that category, bradley cooper, even though he was nominated for best actor for "a star is born" along with sam elliott for best supporting actor. ♪ out of the deep end watch as i dive in ♪ >> reporter: and lady gaga for best actress and songwriter. ♪ i'll never reach the ground >> reporter: cooper was shut out for director but perhaps the biggest surprise of this year's oscars, "crazy rich asians" getting no love from the
7:16 am
academy. >> you're like the prince william of asia. >> that's ridiculous. i'm much more like harry. >> reporter: the critical and commercial hit winding up with zero nominations. but this year, the academy did seem to make strides in recognizing black films and filmmakers. >> and as you can see i am not dead. >> reporter: "black panther," the $700 million juggernaut making history becoming the first superhero movie to be nominated for best picture. >> i'm not risking my life to prevent some rednecks from lighting a couple of sticks on fire. >> reporter: prolific director spike lee, the mind behind "blackkklansman" garnering his first nomination for best director. if he wins he would become the first black recipient in that category's history and for the first time two mexican women getting nods for best actress and best supporting actress in the netflix film "roma." and you can watch to see who takes the oscar february 24th right here on abc. you're not going to make
7:17 am
everyone happy. >> never. >> never. okay, eva, thanks very much. now to that stunning loss for serena williams, just one point away from winning her quarterfinal match, called for that foot fault. everything started to go wrong from there. she lost six straight games to karolina pliskova. late in the match, we also saw her roll her left ankle but she did not blame the loss on her injury and said her ankle's fine. maybe i'll feel it tomorrow. >> i feel it right now. >> even if she had won the match that still would have been tough to come back and play the next match when you roll your ankle like that. >> it looked really, really painful but she had a lot of chances. >> she did. >> she did. okay, let's go back to ginger. >> i got to show you these images out of niagara falls just starting to freeze over and takes that severe cold which we're going to see more of and i will show you that but there's that frozen image to not warm you up on this morning because i don't want you to think tomorrow oh good, we're in the 50s or 40s, look at the cold coming. this is friday morning windchills, 21 below in chicago,

we are back now with that abc news exclusive. new england patriots owner robert kraft is here as he prepares to head to his tenth super bowl. it's a record for any nfl owner and he's opening up about his team, his quarterback, his coach, as well as the controversy surrounding the nfl. we're going to speak to him live in a moment, but first here's paula faris with a look at kraft's 25 years as patriots owner. good morning, paula. >> good morning to you, michael. good morning, everyone. back in 2000, robert kraft took a chance on an unremarkable quarterback from the university of michigan, tom brady. well, he's already won five super bowls. that's more than any quarterback in nfl history. the success of since buying the new england patriots in 1994, robert kraft
7:39 am
has become nfl royalty, turning his $172 million investment into one that's worth more than $3.8 billion, making the patriots the second most valuable franchise in the nfl. in 2000, betting on a sixth round draft pick from michigan, quarterback tom brady was drafted 199th overall and he would soon lead them to five championships. that once unfamiliar quarterback now a superstar, married to a supermodel, brady leading the team to each of those five titles. now 41 years old, the future hall of famer showing no signs of slowing down. but that doesn't stop fans of opposing teams from trying to stop the patriot dynasty. the nfl is now investigating this green laser from last week's afc championship game. meantime, kraft, brady and the patriots continuing their fight -- >> hello, super bowl! >> reporter: -- on their way to their ninth super bowl together.
7:40 am
it is pretty remarkable. now, officials do not believe that green laser affected that game in any way but love them, hate them, you have to respect what the patriots have done. the super bowl just one week from sunday in atlanta and, michael, wow, tom brady has changed a lot from his days at the university of michigan. >> yeah, you watched him at the university of michigan, paula. >> i did. >> it's great to have the guy who brought him into the nfl. robert kraft is here with us. congratulations on another super bowl. >> thank you, michael. >> well deserved. >> you took two from us. >> well, you know, you won five, don't get greedy. [ laughter ] but we're going to talk -- we're happy you're in the super bowl. we'll talk about something else that everyone is still talking about. i know robin discusses it on the daily, the interference call in the nfc championship game, and as one of the leading owners in the league, what do you think the league can do to make sure that this does not happen again? >> you know, that's a good question and, first of all, we have one more game left so i love the refs.
7:41 am
>> smart man. >> but i go back to 1976, ben drythe, sugar bear hamilton, same kind of situation. the raiders go to the super bowl, we go home. and in life i've learned things happen, nothing is perfect. no excuses, you make it happen. you do your best. we have human errors sometimes, but we have to move on and it's unfortunate and we have to be diligent about trying to get it corrected. >> yeah, and the referees are not perfect and the game is not perfect. >> no, but they actually do a great job. i'll tell you, in our game in k.c., there were a number of controversial calls that they had to get right and they got them all right. and the crowd is there. they have a tough job. >> something else that happened in k.c. at the afc championship game was, there was a laser pointed at tom brady and it's not the first time this happened.
7:42 am
so, what can be done to stop this because it's potentially dangerous? >> well, it doesn't happen when you come to foxborough, so -- but i'll tell you i just hear the word laser and i think of tommy and his eyes, and in that last drive we had three third down and tens and he was -- he was laser focused and so whatever it was, i think it was a positive influence, but i think part of the security check has to be sure those kinds of things don't happen. >> yeah, and, you know, this week marks the 25th anniversary of you purchasing and buying the patriots. here's what you said on that day. >> my objective in doing this is to help bring a championship to new england. >> and you've done that, five super bowls, ten appearances. it's remarkable, the most successful owner in the nfl history. what have you done? how do you think you built this winning culture and have been

able to sustain it for so long? >> well, you know, in anything in life the key is getting good people around you and creating a culture where everyone is open to disagree but keep it in the family, which is hard sometimes, especially in the business that's so public, and once you have good people, the trick is to try to have continuity. i'm happy, you know, please god one more season tommy and bill belichick who are the best at what they do in my opinion will be with us for 20 years, two decades. in a business where parity -- we all spend the same amount of money, when you do well, you draft lower, you play a harder schedule, you know, and then you need some luck. >> well, i don't think it's all luck. there's a lot of skill involved because belichick, brady. you drafted brady, 199th pick in 2000, and i remember looking at
7:44 am
the pictures of him and -- at the nfl combine. if you looked at him, you're like, oh, this guy is not going to do what he's done in the league. it was not the most flattering look of tom brady but with those two together, tell us about something because in the super bowl you hear everything about these guys. he's been in the -- ninth super bowl. you think you know everything about tom brady. give us one thing that is not widely known about him. >> well, the thing that's most impressive to me, he is still the same guy that he was when he came out of michigan and i met him, that skinny beanpole coming down the steps with that great physique that you speak about. and he is the nicest person, genuine. he's the same person today as he was when he was fourth on the depth chart back there in 2000 and he's just -- i mean, he --
7:45 am
when my wife, blessed memory, passed away almost eight years ago, he was there for me in a way only my sons were and the guys in the locker room were. but he -- and he cares and he connects and i think he's able to do that in the huddle even with guys half his age and they see how hard he works and what he does and how genuine he is and how he's selfless and puts team first and i think that really spreads. >> as a friend of his, i definitely second all those things you're saying and to every patriots fan, i'm sure for you, you hope he never retires. >> i'm in that camp and, listen, i brought you and robin and george some kraft family eggs. they're generic, they're safe to eat, and then also i know you're lacking some championship gear. i thought you might -- >> okay.

8:46 am
want to tread lightly because it's early and we're still all waking up, but there's a lot of pain going on right now. there's a lot of anger going on right now. whether it's physical violence or emotional violence, or violence we're directing towards each other, there is a lot happening at the moment. and this film doesn't try to solve it and it doesn't try to explain it but it does explore it and it explores it in a way that's not on the nose and it doesn't point fingers. that really appealed to me. it spoke to me. i want to understand this moment better. i don't know why we treat each other the way we do. [ applause ] >> i agree. great message. >> it's not a feel good inspiring thing. it's a dark movie. you're not going to come out of it and be like, what was she talking about with strahan? >> we'll take a look at a clip. you are in a troubled marriage. >> yes. >> but you go to your ex-husband for help. >> i do. >> we'll take a look at "serenity." here it is. check it out. >> my husband is joining me here the day after tomorrow.
