7:02 am
royalty right there on the red carpet that i think was technically yellow. >> that's right. such a sweet hug between the two of them. elton john was there as well. so many great moments. we're going to have more on that ahead. but first, we begin with the flood threat as barry moves north this morning. eight states are on alert and the gulf is still facing dangerous rain. rob starts us off from mandeville, louisiana with the latest. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, robin. you know this lake. it was filled to the brim even before the storm. there's a view from our drone. you still just hoy angry it is this morning. that left a trail of destruction across the state.
7:03 am
this morning, the effects of barry being felt as far away as florida. in panama city beach, beachgoers forming a human chain to help save two distressed swimmers caught in a strong rip current. those monstrous undertows turning deadly for one person there. >> head towards the beach. there's going to be multiple subjects in the water. >> reporter: 40 others rescued sunday. the category 1 hurricane slamming communities from louisiana and mississippi north to missouri with intense flooding and powerful winds, up to 60-mile-per-hour wind gusts ripping off the roof of this airport hangar . the hurricane swirling winds whipping up three reported tornadoes in the state. downed trees splitting homes in half and power lines littering the roads. utility crews restoring to over 150,000 customers. up to ten inches of rain swamping parts of mississippi and over a foot in louisiana. the torrential rains inundating roads, homes and businesses. the tombstones at this cemetery entirely submerged. some areas facing up to 15 inches. look at this wave action off lake pontchartrain. a full day after landfall, the storm surge just relentless. a good three feet of water still pushing into this neighborhood.
7:04 am
nearly 100 people rescued from high waters. this man and his dog airlifted to safety by the coast guard. even with barry far removed, it is a boiling tempest this morning. thankfully the surge from the lake has receded. at one point, it was over 400 yards inland, 3 or 4 feet deep. if you're thinking this is early for a hurricane making landfall, you bet it was. the last time this happened was back in 2005 when that hit louisiana. later that year, it was katrina. robin, we are certainly hoping history doesn't repeat itself this year. >> you're right about that, rob. thank you. the threat is not over yet, isn't that right, ginger? >> that's right. you can still see the circulation from barry centered over arkansas. it's counter clockwise. some of the heavier bands down to texas so you've got flood alerts. you have flash flood alerts up to illinois, paducah, kentucky, memphis, tennessee, included so who will get it when? it looks like it's very slow moving north to northeast. it'll start to pick up in pace as we go through the midweek but
7:05 am
talking about rain reaching all the way to western new york and western pennsylvania. on the order of two to three inches from what is left of barry but some of the heavier bands from arkansas to mississippi today could leave six to ten inches, george. >> wet start to the week. ginger, thanks very much. to washington now where president trump has sparked a storm of outrage after a series of racist tweets targeting members of congress who are women of color. he wrote they should, quote, go from, ignoring the fact they are all citizens, three of the four born in the u.s. our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce tracking all the latest. mary, the president was trying to divide democrats. it appears to be backfiring. >> reporter: while the president may have thought he could exploit tension between democratic leaders and these progressive members, instead we are now seeing democrats coming together rallying behind these members and calling out the president for these racist tweets. from congress -- >> that's a racist tweet. >> reporter: -- to the campaign trail. >> it is absolutely racist and un-amerin,isn old trope. >> reporter: president trump's latest twitter tirade is being slammed as racist and xenophobic.
7:06 am
without naming names the president sunday called out progressive democrat congresswomen tweeting, why don't they go back and help fix the totally broken and crime infested places from which they came. then come back and show us how it is done, adding, these places need your help badly. you can't leave fast enough. it's not the first time trump has taken aim at these women of color who have been sharply critical of his immigration policies. >> a group of people that came from -- i don't know where they came from. >> reporter: the congresswomen came from cincinnati, detroit and new york city. only one of the group, representative ilhan omar, a somali refugee, was born outside of the u.s. she's now an american citizen. on twitter the minnesota representative wrote, trump is stoking white nationalism because you are angry that people like us are serving in congress and fighting against your hate-filled agenda. ayanna pressley of massachusetts shot back, this is what racism looks like. we are what democracy looks like
7:07 am
and we're not going anywhere. and from congresswoman alexandria ocasio-cortez of new york, mr. president, the country i come from and the country we all swear to is the united states. the tweets getting a strong united response from democrats. >> the president is an illegitimate racist occupying the white house who has defined himself over and over again. >> i am freaking appalled that the president of the united states conducts himself in such a disgraceful and racist way. >> reporter: while nancy pelosi has been sparring with the freshman progressives, she's making it clear. she has their backs, tweeting, when donald trump tells four american congresswomen to go back to their countries he reaffirms his plan to make america great again has always been about making america white again. now, while democrats have been quick to condemn the president, the silence from republicans is deafening. so far top republicans are not weighing in. they are not denouncing the president's comments or defending him while the
7:08 am
president this morning is digging in tweeting, so sad to see the democrats sticking up for people who speak so badly of our country. george. >> okay, mary, let's bring in senior white house senior white house correspondent cecilia vega for more on this. cecilia, this is about as explicit as the president has ever gotten in a tweet like this, but he has a history of making these racist appeals. >> reporter: yeah, he does, and this one will be tough for people here in the administration to spin and, frankly, impossible to defend. this phrase, go back where you came from, has a painful history. we know racism against minorities and immigrants in this country is nothing new, but as you just said a president normalizing it in such a public way, let's look at it. birtherism, he promoted that conspiracy theory that barack obama was born in africa for years and he launched his campaign saying mexicans were
7:09 am
rapists, and of course let's go back to charlottesville where he said there were very fine people on both sides. now what he is doing with these tweets is really harkening back to the age old racist notion that white is american, that people of color are not. that they are other, that immigrants are not part of this country. he's advocating for an us versus them mentality. you know, while we haven't so far, george, heard from republicans denouncing these tweets, i will tell you the white nationalists are loving it. one prominent website saying this morning, quote, this is the kind of white nationalism we elected him for. >> that is really something. as you point out, the fact that republicans haven't spoken out even though they did speak out in the past it shows how they've united behind the president, at least republican leaders have. meantime, this comes, cecilia, at the same time last week the president was touting these immigration raids in major cities that were supposed to take place yesterday. it appears that didn't really come off. >> reporter: yeah, you know, ten large cities this was supposed to happen in around the country. 2,000 some odd documented immigrants, they fell far short of expectations, these raids that the president said would
7:10 am
happen. there were only a handful of operations that took place around the country. we're told by sources that they looked more like routine enforcement actions. the big question this morning, george, though, is did these raids not happen because the president telegraphed them in advance? you know, we know that leaders in cities where these raids were supposed to happen say the president is purposefully trying to scare these immigrant communities. we know a number of people did not answer their doors. they were coached essentially and told not to answer their doors if i.c.e. knocked and didn't have warrants. but immigration advocates, george, tell us this threat is still not over. they believe the raids could happen later today or later this week when people head back to work. >> right, they could unroll all week. okay, cecilia vega, thanks very much. amy. george, now to that mysterious blackout that left tens of thousands of new yorkers in the dark. power was knocked out for more than 70,000 customers. hundreds of people were stuck in elevators, others were stranded on the subway and there are there are still problems this morning. abc's erielle reshef is outside in times square with the latest
7:11 am
on the investigation into what happened. good morning, erielle. >> reporter: good morning to you, amy. there's still an urgent hunt for answers this morning after more than 30 blocks of the city were paralyzed saturday night. some iconic landmarks including some billboards right here in times square going dark, a main bus terminal still without air-conditioning this morning. >> we have a major blackout. >> reporter: this morning electric company con edison investigating why a large swath of manhattan plunged into darkness. more than 72,000 customers without power on a steamy saturday evening. >> we have to make sure it doesn't happen again and the system is designed in such a way that it doesn't happen again. >> reporter: some neon billboards in times square pitch black. on iconic broadway, lights out, but that didn't stop the musical cast of "rock of ages" from taking the show outside. ♪ it goes on and on and on >> reporter: stoplights at busy intersections off, leaving pedestrians to step in and direct traffic. emergency responders racing to
7:12 am
roughly 400 elevator rescues. >> there's people trapped in elevators in both towers. >> reporter: underground nearly 3,000 passengers stuck or left waiting for trains. and a jennifer lopez concert at madison square garden cut off. >> they're asking everybody to evacuate. >> reporter: during those eerie five hours new york city mayor bill de blasio trying to reassure new yorkers from the presidential campaign trail in iowa. >> let's get all the facts and then we'll assess what to do. >> reporter: returning home the next day facing questions about his re >> you have to be in charge wherever you are. i'm in regular touch with my folks confirming the situation is being handled properly. [ cheers ] >> reporter: the streets of new york erupting into cheers as the city that never sleeps woke up from the massive blackout. and authorities have ruled out a cyberattack or any criminality here but con edison says it could take weeks to figure out extlwhat cseth msive outage. they say they willri
7:13 am
okay, ele, thank you very much. we move to that amusement park accident caught on camera. the ride fell apart in midair, crashed to the ground with people on board, and diane macedo has the latest on the investigation. good morning, diane. >> reporter: george, good morning. this incident is horrifying, and the whole thing was caught on cell phone video. you can see the ride full of people swinging back and forth. onlookers watching. everyone seemingly having a good time and suddenly that ride snapped and that bottom half came crashing down. officials in ahmedabad, india say two people were killed instantly. both in their 20s. 29 more were injured and at least three are in critical condition. now an investigation is under way as authorities try to figure out what went wrong here, george. >> as you said this happened in india but this is a pretty common ride. >> reporter: it is. thf cald thscery. it's one of those that swings back and forth like a pendulum. it's a popular feature in amusement parks all over the world, but we still don't know how many of those are this exact
7:14 am
ride or imitions. in fact, the italian company that makes the discovery has another one of its rides was also involved in a fatal accident a few years ago, also in india. either way, though, george, authorities worldwide will watch this investigation closely to try to ensure that whatever went wrong here doesn't happen again. >> thanks very much. robin. to the investigation under way into the mysterious death of a beloved civil rights activist. sadie roberts-joseph who founded an african-american museum in louisiana. alex perez has the latest. >> reporter: this morning authorities searching for answers after the body of 75-year-old sadie roberts-joseph, a beloved member of the baton rouge community, was discovered on friday stuffed in the trunk of this white car just miles from her home. her family shattered. her niece desperate for answers. >> we are devastated. we're devastated that someone has actually killed her and put her in the trunk of her own car.
7:15 am
>> reporter: seen speaking here o h tlen of our past. >> reporter: roberts-joseph was a civil rights activist who founded the african-american history museum in baton rouge. police digging for answers. >> why would somebody do something like this to her? >> you know, we don't know. that's what we're trying to figure out. my detectives have been working overtime and we do know there was a time when she was last seen, and a time when she was -- when the body was discovered and we're working on that time frame and focusing in on what happened between that time. >> reporter: baton rouge mayor sharon weston broome devastated. >> i have no idea why someone would do such a heinous act or commit such a heinous act, for someone who had nothing but love for this community and love for people. >> reporter: and authorities have not identified a suspect or a motive. the police chief here tells me he has two teams of investigators working this case
7:16 am

7:35 am
and offering to put up his $77 million new york home and a private jet as collateral to secure bond. but the government blasting the bail request in their response letter calling epstein a serial sexual predator and that electronic monitoring would merely give the defendant less of a head start in fleeing. noting epstein, according to financial records, is worth more than $500 million. >> we think he is a significant flight risk and that is why we're seeking detention pending trial. he has enormous wealth. >> reporter: this weekend abc news getting an up close look at one of epstein's pristine properties. his island compound, little st. james, the 75-acre island complete with a temple, helipad, private beach, even a lifeguard stand. >> i feel like his wealth should not be something that is able to be leveraged. >> reporter: three more women now speaking out to abc news about epstein's arrest and why
7:36 am
he should be denied bail. they're claiming that in the early 2000s when they were 17 an acquaintance recruited each of them separately to go to his palm beach mansion to give him a massage. but they all say epstein attempted to grope and touch them and grew angry when they refused to allow it. at their request we're not naming them or showing their faces and have altered their voices. >> he's a threat to women. he's manipulative. he's very precalculated and this is something that has clearly not stopped so why would it top now?stop now? >> people do his dirty work for him, so i feel that he's still a danger when he's outside. >> reporter: now epstein could be facing even more legal trouble. we've been told that the attorney general in new mexico where he has a sprawling

property are talking to victims and investigating this horrific crime. george. >> okay, tom, thanks. let's bring in sunny hostin for more. this judge that is going to hear the case today has faced questions like this before. >> yes. >> people putting up millions of dollars, rejected them. >> in fact, what he said to one defense team, his house arrest was unreasonable because it helps to foster inequity in unequal treatment in favor of a very small cohort of criminal defendants who are extremely wealthy. so he has sort of thrown this aside before and i think what people need to understand is bail is not supposed to be punitive but to be sure it is supposed to make sure that the defendant will appear in court and it is also to protect the community from the defendant. this is a guy who is vastly wealthy. he has his own private plane. he has property outside of the u.s., various properties within the u.s., and so he is a significant flight risk.
7:38 am
in terms of protecting him from the community, he had hundreds if not thousands of images of nude girls found on his property. this is someone who is a sexual predator, a registered sexual offender. many more victims have come forward. ha mnschargecod be coming. >> on top of it some victims have said i am fearful that he is released that he will contact me. how do you fashion a set of conditions that will meet the bail requirements? i just don't see it in this case. he is not an appropriate candidate. >> we will be watching today. sunny, thanks very much. amy. coming up, the new twist in a vatican mystery involving a 15-year-old girl who vanished. we are live from vatican city with the latest. with the latest. drive safe & save discount? big yup, using the app. i've been quite vigilant. sharon says step on it. the meeting's started. ok, write her back 'dear sharon, don't mess with my discount!' faster mommy, i gotta go to the bathroom. i do too honey, but we're gonna hold it for mommy's discount.

good morning, north bay. get up and get going. >> this is abc 7 mornings. >> i'm reggie aqui from abc 7 mornings. we're following a deadly crash on i-80 in san pablo. sky 7 flew over the scene about two hours ago. you can see that flatbed truck crashed through the guardrail and flipped. at least one person died here. alexis has been looking at this for quite a while. how close are we to having this cleaned up? >> we still don't have an estimate on when the two right lanes will reopen. the two left lanes are reopen. a lot of the cleanup is done. one of the vehicles on the scene, the flipped truck, started to catch fire when they were trying to tow it out of there. just really not catching much of a break here. that remains a sigalert. a 10 to 15-minute delay because it's the eastbound side not the westbound side. westbound 580, tracy on

big premiere last night. welcome, guys. you brought pumbaa as well. >> hello. >> jon, we have to know did you get the royal seal of approval? >> yes, it was very nice to meet the duke and duchess, their royal majesties. it was very exciting. >> it was weird watching a movie with so many royal themes with actually royalty. i kept thinking is this connecting with them in a way i don't understand? >> so true. >> that is true. hey, jon, you have been here before. it's not your first rodeo. "the jungle book" so you know what it feels like, something that is so beloved, so how are you feeling this close now to the release of this movie? >> well, you know, this one people know a lot more than they know "the jungle book." there are people who grew up -- this is the first film that was part of the video tape generation where kids would watch it over and over again in the back of the minivan, so there is a lot of pressure to
8:32 am
get it right, but thanks to social media, and the reaction from the trailer that gotten, i feel really comfortable and excited and i can't wait for everybody to see the film on the 19th. [ cheers and applause ] >> who plays my favorite character, pumbaa, thank you for bringing your plush version of yourself. seth, talk about pressure, man. you have to sing a song with beyonce. what was that like for you? >> yes. [ laughter ] it was not something i ever expected. i currently have like the number five song on itunes. [ applause ] that's thrilling. it was wonderful. i apologized to her personally for having to share credit with me but overall i loved it and i think that the song turned out great and the fact that i didn't ruin it -- >> was a bonus. >> fun to do. >> i think it's time to give everybody a little bit more of the movie. let's take a look.

8:34 am
it would have been impossible i think to be as funny as i think we were if we were recording separately i think. >> which lines made the doll? >> i don't know which lines made the doll. >> hakuna matata. >> hakuna matata. hakuna matata. you know what, the doll said it best. i don't get paid for this. i just want you to know that. whatever i signed i get no money for this. [ laughter ] >> jon, as i know seth just touched on, how important was it for you as director to have seth and billy and donald glover all in the studio together? >> well, part, you know, i know for my son, i knew about the childish gambino music, but i knew donald glover more as a comedian and improviser and both he and billy and seth all come from that tradition of improvisational comedy so i knew if i got all of us together not only would we partner up for the performances but we could keep rewriting it and keep finding new opportunities and part of that contributes to the live action feel that we're going for
8:35 am
here so even though we were animating to their voices we wanted to make it feel like you were watching something that was actually filmed in real life and i think that conversational quality carried the day. >> totally. >> and the movie is just incredible. >> it is. you put your heart and soul into this and it is quite evident. i just cannot wait for everybody to see it. [ applause ] >> thank you. >> thank you. >> you can buy pumbaa dolls. >> special friday sale. >> you can figure out how to get a good deal based on your previous experience. >> oh, seth, seth, seth, seth. bless you, jon. y'all take care. we appreciate it very much and "the lion king" is in theaters on friday. joel mchale joins us live when we come right back.
