president trump is threatening to close the border with mexico and eliminate aid to three central american countries unless they take more action to stop the flow of migrants to the u.s. it would be a dramatic move with serious consequences at the border and beyond. our senior national correspondent, terry moran, has the latest. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, george. president trump and his top administration officials this morning are saying, we told you so. there is a crisis at the southern border. it's not just them. former obama administration homeland security officials and state and local officials on the border are saying it too. record numbers of migrants being apprehended trying to cross into the u.s. illegally. numbers we haven't seen in over a decade. heading towards a record, overwhelming the system. so president trump is responding with extreme -- only say, counterproductive measures. threatening to close down the border by the end of the week, that whole 2,000-mile border and tweeting, homeland security is being so very nice, but not for long. and in that stunning move, the president is declaring he will stop all foreign aid to el salvador, guatemala, and

honduras, where so many migrants are fleeing gang warfare and persecution. this despite the fact that top trump administration officials are saying that american aid is critical to stemming the violence that's triggering the exodus in the first place. >> big questions as well as to whether closing the border is even a workable solution, and it doesn't appear that the administration is actually laying the ground work for it. >> reporter: it's not an easy thing to do, george. you just don't flick a switch and close the border. there have to be major preparations for the pentagon, for labor unions, for customs and border patrol. for all kinds of systems that need to get geared up and ready for this incredibly drastic move that will cost the united states billions, but the president is vowing to do it in days. he's doing it right now on twitter. we'll see if those orders go out, george. >> terry, thank you so much. >> let's go to matt gutman who is there on the border in texas with a look at the situation right now. good morning, matt. >> reporter: hey, good morning, robin. closing down the border here

could have a huge impact. taking these motorists three hours to cross. some people crossing on foot taking them five hours to go to school or work and the economic impact could be even more severe. every day, $1.7 billion worth of commerce and goods cross the border between the united states and mexico, which is one of the our biggest trading partners. now it's taken some time for president trump's rhetoric to catch up to the reality, but now officials are saying they expect more than a million asylum seekers to cross into the u.s. this year. twice as many as last your, housing a significant problem at detention centers here in el paso. they are at 300% capacity. they have begun putting people under bridges and in tents. in the early 2000s, we saw single adult mexican migrants coming through. now it's mostly central american families. that's the majority. here in el paso, 17 times more families apprehended than last year. 17 times, and one of the few places we're not seeing an

increase in traffic at border terminals like this. officials say -- customs officials saying they are only encouragi encouraging mights and seekers to come through. >> matt, thank you very much. the race for the white house. former vice president joe biden has not yet announced. he's defending himself against an accusation of unwanted touching. he's getting support overnight from the wife of former defense secretary ash carter, who says a misleading photo of them is being used against him. senior congressional correspondent mary bruce has the story. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, george. joe biden is not officially running for president yet. his record is already facing fresh scrutiny. now this morning, joe biden says he never thought he acted inappropriately, but that he recognizes this is a different time. he says, women should be encouraged to share their experiences, and he says, men should be paying attention. this morning, joe biden is on defense responding to allegations from nevada lawmaker lucy flores that he inappropriately kissed her on the head at a 2014 campaign rally.

the former vice president saying in my many years on the campaign trail and in public life i have offered countless hand shakes, hugs, expressions of affection, support, and comfort. and not once, never, did i believe i acted inappropriately. if it is suggested i did so, i will listen respectfully, but it was never my intention, but flores says regardless of biden's intention, she felt violated. >> for the record, i don't believe it was a bad intention. i'm not in any way suggesting that i felt sexually assaulted or sexually harassed. i felt invaded. i felt that there was a violation of my personal space. >> reporter: at the time, flores was running for lieutenant governor. writing in an op-ed she and biden were about to go on stage when the vice president put his hands on her shoulders, smelled her hair, and planted a big, slow kiss on the back of her head. biden's behavior toward women has sparked questions in the past. like this incident in 2015, when biden put his hands on incoming

defense secretary ash carter's wife, whispering in her ear during her husband's swearing in ceremony. overnight, stephanie carter writing, the joe biden in my picture is a close friend, helping someone get through a big day, for which i will always be grateful. and this morning, we are hearing from some of biden's would-be 2020 rivals. elizabeth warren says she believes lucy flores. amy klobuchar and bernie sanders said they have no reason to doubt this story. but george, they all stopped short of saying this incident is disqualifying. they say it's up to biden to make his own decision. >> a big day for fund-raising today. we're getting reports from democratic candidates for how much is coming in. starting with a big surprise. >> reporter: yeah, george. mayor pete buttigieg announcing he raised more than $7 million in the first quarter. that is a pretty impressive hall for the relatively unknown mayor of south bend, indiana. george? >> mary bruce, thanks very much. michael? also breaking overnight. two marines killed in a helicopter crash during a training exercise in arizona. our chief global affairs

broken bones. her family is sharing the video in hopes of finding the driver. >> i just want everybody to pray for laderihanna. and i just want the people involved to be caught. >> reporter: the video shows two people getting out of the vehicle before running away as the family rushes out of the house to check on the girls. police say the owner of the car was at work and told authorities her boyfriend had the vehicle, but an attorney for the family says he doesn't believe the boyfriend who was 30, was the driver because they believe the driver was a teenager. the girl hurt was a cheerleader and gymnast. her mother believes she'll make a full recovery. >> she's strong. it will take awhile. but she's going to bounce back. >> reporter: it is amazing that this girl wasn't killed. her friend who was with her, guys, suffered minor injuries. >> hope she makes a full, full recovery. steve, thank you. and now to the march madness shocker. overnight, michigan state beating number one duke. setting up an incredible final

i'm going to put them right here and see if i can ignore them. immediately, those messages start flooding in. oh, and i already looked. oh, there's another one. another alert. and i -- i couldn't avoid it. it was just instinct. some of those texts arranged by producer, but i don't know that, and it's torture. >> there is another alert. i didn't look this time, but it is taking everything to not look. i want to look. >> that's honest. >> and, i always drive around with my phone on silent. this time i did it with the sounds on. it was just stressful hearing those sounds come in. and you saw, it took nothing for me to just look. and, right away, i just -- i couldn't avoid it. >> you saw the one kid. he said he was scared watching himself. he was scared of himself watching himself drive. there is technology you try to use that can help you from looking at your phone when you're behind the wheel. >> i tried this. it's really cool. it's called do not disturb while it's called do not disturb while driving. it's an iphone feature, and it

actually responds to text messages for you and it says -- there's the text message right there. it says, i'm driving with this feature turned on. i won't see your message until i get there. >> i have gotten that from people. >> this is how you turn it on. get your iphones out. you go into settings and then you go into the control center. >> wait, wait. slow down. settings. then. okay. >> settings. control center. >> control center. >> customize controls. >> right. >> and then there, you're going to look for the little car icon. it says, do not disturb while driving. add that in there. now, all of a sudden, it's in your control center. you can turn that feature on and off. >> the do not disturb while driving. yeah. >> you can turn that on. it turns off all of your notifications and reflies to the texts. >> perfect. that was easy. >> what if there is somebody who wants that but wants to stay connected in case of an emergency? >> it sends you another text. it says, go ahead and reply with the word urgent, and that text

message will then get through to the driver. you can set up different settings so you can have certain people calling you, and those calls will go through. >> wow. >> you know what? just taking that little time could save you possibly your life, and somebody else's life. >> you knew you were being tested and it was still hard? >> i knew it. george, i thought i wasn't going to look at the phone. i thought i could do it. the very first time i heard that sound, right away, my eye went down. >> the other drivers knew they were being photographed too. >> at least i wasn't juggling plates of food. >> something to be said for that. thank you, as always, gio. i saw you flip your pen. that was the "play of the day." >> yes. >> we have another one coming up. up.

most people know about it, and it's very veterans. they heal, and find jobs and do better things, but they have a community there. he's just getting started. it's awesome to see the corporations are backing it. people get it. they care. >> i love how you start. you're talking about the pioneering spirit. that's with us. and you say that's what we have to hold on to. >> right. that's what jim and i talked about in the beginning. i would travel for speaking engagements. i would see these people and meet all these wonderful people. i'm, like, why are we not talking about this? i thought, their pioneering spirit because jim was writing a book at the same time about the west and spirit. it's still alive. it's people sacrificing themselves and their time for the next generation. it's -- it's people giving of themselves and risking great odds just to do good. >> it doesn't have to be something grand. >> no. >> it can be the smallest thing -- >> right. >> that could help

if you can just -- my sister started an organization, each one save one. if you just look at it like that. >> that's what in this book. a lot of these people didn't start out to do something big. they started out small. it just sparked something else and rippled out. >> and so many kids. so many kids you write about. the lemonade stand. how millions of dollars was able to be raised through that. >> i think part of it is, we look at the next generation. every generation has done it. every one says the next one is going to ruin the country. and we rally. i'm looking at these kids going, there are so many good kids out there doing awesome things. we need to remember that. >> lastly, people reach out to you. it's great to see you. i haven't seen you in sometime. we're text buddies. we text back and forth and keep up. how have you been able to -- and i'm so happy to see this light back in you. and just tell people what has helped you get to this point? >> i really think it is seeing -- it's my faith 100%. i know it's god. i have seen him so much in my depths. i have a vision of, i kept feeling like god was asking me to jump off a cliff without a parachute. one day i was crying feeling sorry for myself. i was saying i've done it. i've proven it.

that's where the blessing is. one of the guys in the book, mike, talks about a program called horses and heroes. he talks about the easy way will kill you. i think you know that. the hard things in life have brought you more joy when you get through it. your perspective is different. >> my mother had a poem. she said, i walked a mile with pleasure. she shattered all the way. i was none the wiser for all she had to say. i walked a mile with sorrow and ne'er a word said she. but oh the things i learned from her when sorrow walked with me. >> okay. that's beautiful. yeah. see? look at the -- look at the impact your mom makes, right? that's a perfect example. you have talked about your mom a lot with me and i know you have with your audiences on camera, and the thing is she -- she sparked something in you, and look what you do. you bring it to millions. you just never know. >> and you're doing it. "american spirit" is out tomorrow. [ cheers and applause ]

hi, guys. i know. hi. thank you. hi. hi, everybody. hi. >> feel the love. >> i do. i feel like we have the same color vibe this morning. >> the lip. >> beauty. >> we have something to talk to you about. i watch to talk about something you posted online. request w your kids. #spring break with kids. #four states in ten days. and that's the picture you posted. so, how was spring break? >> that was me on saturday morning. feeling ill from all the travel and all the work and being exhausted parent and all of it. i was like, this is exactly how i feel. so, it's nice when cow can capture exactly how you feel. i'll make a reference i'm not sure how many people will get. i look like marty feldman in

that picture, which, to me srgs a good thing. but, yeah. it's like, life is so busy and crazy sometimes. then you have really -- >> you did ten days in a car with a 6-year-old and a 4-year-old? >> whoa. >> norgs we wept to mexico. we did spird monkey sanctuaries. and swam through mangroves. and zip-lined. it was action-paged. but that's what you do. you kill spripg braeg. >> with a 6 and a 4-year-old. you're so preeshs. >> frankie will be 5 in like two weeks. >> they grow up so fast. >> the 22nd. >> i know they're on set with you a lot. >> yeah. >> this latest. the third season. congratulations for that. >> thank you very much. i'm so excited. >> it's a bit of a dark comedy. i can't see the girls watching this. what have they seen? >> olive was there on this season.

and the cop stabs me with a fork in my hand to test me. olive was there that day. she didn't like that. i was like, no, look, it's fake. it's paying the. >> what have they seen you in? >> they love "ever after." "50 first dates." if anyone comes over and my movie is playing, i'm like, i swear to god i'm not that ego jerk, here, kids. we're watching. they call it a mom movie. they enjoy watching it. i'm proud of who i am and what i have done. especially the messages, you know, e made them exactly for what young girls and boys feel. we're all just trying to find love, be kind, and like, kick some ass here and there. >> have they seen "e.t. "? >> they have. in olive hasn't gravitated towards it as much as i would have thought. so far. but, i think she'll get back into it. like she love "the goonies."

>> yeah. >> does she want to follow lowe in your footsteps? >> yesterday, we were making cup cakes. the best cupcakes we have ever made. our game is get something good. a muxer going. she was working the speeds. i was like, yeah. we were doing this race car analogy. it was ridiculous. my -- i always have turner classic movies on in the background of the kitchen. my grandfather came on, i was like, olive, there he is. your great-grandfather. that's my grandfather. i talk about john, lionel, ethel. she's lying, every in our family is's actor. and i said, we must feel that pull. i just said, you know, you get to do whatever you want to do. she said, i want to be an actress. but i also need to be a policewoman. >> works. >> and i said -- >> that works. that works. >> i was like, i love you so much. that's wonderful. >> we want to talk about your

show. "santa clarita diet." it's a marriage between a wife turned zombie and still human husband. this is your first tv series. >> it is. >> why this? >> you know, timing is everything. i had a -- you know, sort of derailment of my own personal life plans. and this show came along. and it was a wonderful opportunity to -- it had kids. i was getting divorced. what is my life? i had stopped acting for awhile to raise them. there comes those moments where you're like, who am i? as a parent, you're like, you have this expectation. i'm supposed to get back to me. i will never be the same after having kids. what am i trying to get back to? it's only looking forward, the rearview mirror is lyiike a ridiculous metaphor gnat no longer applies. your life plans change. that is difficult to navigate.

the show came along. i saw this opportunity in the first episode for a woman to find her empowerment again. and she had lived this life. where she was sort of stuck in a rut. and -- i just thought, you know, i'm 20 pounds overweight. my life is totally not where i thought it would be. i want to put all of this into this character. i asked the show runner, can i do that? i think in society today, we're so far out there and it's so crazy this world that if you don't have a show with a little spine and a little grit, it almost feels like "leave it to beaver." it doesn't work anymore. so -- then, i liked the sort of tone of the marriage that though mine wasn't working, i like to see things that are about a good relationship. we're all going to try and practice that in our life. and whatever unconventional forms that is. love is love.

and, i hate seeing people fight and victor said, i will never have this couple fight. and i said, then i'm in. i saw enough of that in my real life. i don't want to hear that. >> that is the best reason i ever heard someone give. >> that is my reason. year after year, we grew and grew. this is our best and strongest season. if you say till death do us part and there's though death and it's forever. and the other person wants you to join them, what is that going to be like? really good question. you know. >> let's take a look. we want everybody. here's a little bit. >> why are you smiling, pretty lady. >> i just realized why you came over here. it's flattering. you're threatened by us. >> oh, yes, your monkey bread smells of fear. >> we didn't want you to get crushed by us. maybe you should sell the home that you're more familiar with. >> we're not going to get crushed. we're going the drag the corn

flake back to the colony. stage it. and sell it for 10% above asking. [ cheers and applause ] >> i think that joel and sheila hammond are just this great team. and i like seeing all the best stuff i have ever done in my life has been through partnerships. and i think the show is just fun. it helps to escape the news cycle and the dramas of our lives. yet it has heart and is about a family. whatever form it takes. and so we enjoy -- i think i learned that from "e.t." if it's in suburbia or your backyard, you can do anywhere in the world. i think i would suck at acting in a film in space. i would be like, i don't know space. i never lived here. i don't know how to behave. it's like acting to a tennis ball. all those things. i love humanity. and i love humor. to me, laughter is my highest

priority you know. even when it comes to my children. keeping them safe and happy. but laughing with them. again, i was doing all these dances yesterday. i was like, i know, olive. i'm weird. she goes, you're not weird. i like you. i was like, good. good. we're good. >> we love that you love those things. we love you. >> you're fantastic. >> i'm very happy to be on your show. you came and visited our set. this is full circle. i know you're having tim on the show. and, we're excited that you're having a santa clarita moment here on "good morning america." really cool. >> and even at home, have your moment, too. season three is streaming now. check out drew barrymore, everybody. coming up, issa ray and marsai martin are here.

and i'm beyond dwratful. >> and issa, does looking at marsai make you think about what you were doing at 14? >> uh, yeah. it makes me feel bad about myself if that's what you're asking. i look at her. i'm so inspired. i look at her and i thing about how she's going to inspire so many other people. so many other young girls. i think about myself at that age. >> you were writing. >> i was. i wasn't getting anything produced. i was trying. really, really trying. she went out there and did it. so to be able to see what's possible. you do have that mentality like, i'm too young. this is not going to work. i'm going the try. she's showing other people you can do it if you try. >> you're both showing us. okay. you're both doing it. >> thank you. >> come on, now. all right. so your character. you said your mama inspired you because she saw, who is it?

big? >> big. >> so very similar. your character goes to bed as a 38-year-old and wakes up as a teenager. >> yes. >> oh. >> it's a struggle. it's a real struggle. >> just a little bit. >> just a little bit. because that was a time where she was different from herself. because, it was her true self as little jordan. she came up as the bully to now block away from, you know, the other people that are trying to get with her. so, you know, going back to the age. she had to go back to her true self and be comfortable in who she is as a person. >> here's a snippet. >> and today. i will be checking that you do so. >> no. look here, lady. you am a buzzwoman. i have a company to run. >> she else is girl scout cookies. takes it really seriously. >> i don't have time for child services. i sure don't have time for school. >> let me be clear, i'll have

you if foster care and your goofy aunt in jail if you don't. okurr? >> great cast. you can't help but think about for yourself. if you could go back to an age for one day -- >> yeah. >> what age would it be and why? >> not this age. probably 21. everything is legal. i feel like i didn't fully take advantage of that. um -- but i -- i have time. hopefully. >> and marsai, is there an age you can think maybe older that you want to go to? >> oh, to be honest i don't know. i'm not sure. >> don't rush. >> i'm not rushing. this is fun. i'm good right now. >> enjoy every bit of it. >> it's wonderful. black woman directing. all behind the scenes. it's a -- it's very powerful to see how many were involved in the production. >> shoutout to will packer. who knew that in green-lighting

this movie and making it come to fruition that he wanted all black women behind the scenes. and so, that's just what it was. it was just such a great time. and we're proud of it. >> rightfully so. >> we're proud of you two. both of you. everything that you're doing. and i'll tell you what, "little." if you haven't seen the previews. see this movie. it hits theaters on april 12th. see marsai in "black-ish" tomorrow on abc. check her out. over to you, ginger? >> thank you, michael. i want to sarks i know there are freeze warnings from okay tock delaware, is this an april fool's joke? it's not. a beautiful cold morning. peak good morning, i'm mike nicco, random shower is possible today, especially across the
