7:05 am
press secretary jen psaki. jen, thanks for joining us. let's start -- >> great to be here. >> let's talk about the big vaccine announcement from the president. 500 million doses around the world. but is it big enough and fast enough to meet the need? they won't be delivered until next june. >> well, first, george, a number will be delivered this year but this is a real reflection of the fact that the united states, we're vaccinating more americans than any other country in the world and we're in a position where we can contribute. we can really contribute in a big way, more than any other country, to the global effort to take on the pandemic. this is just the beginning. there's more we want to do to boost our own manufacturing at home to get more supplies out, to ensure we're getting the raw materials and materials that countries around the world need, but this is a huge announcement today and a huge down payment in getting the covid pandemic under control. >> meantime, the vaccine rates are slowing down here at home. are you still confident the president's july 4th goal of 70% vaccinations will be met? >> we'll do everything we can to run through the tape. we have about 13 states who have met, who are over 70% at this
7:06 am
point in time. we just kicked off last weekend a big month of action. it reminds me of my old campaign days where we're using every resource, private sector engagement and we're working with local communities to ensure we're incentivizing young people especially who are not at the same vaccination rate as people who are over 40, so we're really focusing on target communities, groups that need to get vaccinated, reminding people that there are variants out there like the delta variant that are very dangerous. now is the time to get a shot in your arm and we're going to do everything we can to reach that goal. on july 5th we'll still be vaccinating people so we'll keep at it even after that. >> just before the president left on his mission, he pulled the plug on those talks he was having on infrastructure with republican senators. a new group of republican senators, bipartisan group is meeting right now but the republican leadership is throwing cold water on that effort and progressive democrats are getting pretty fired up as well. i want to read a tweet from aoc. she said, president biden and senate dems should take a step
7:07 am
back and ask themselves whether playing patty-cake is worth the dismantling of people's voting right, setting the planet on fire, allowing massive corporations and the wealthy to not pay their fair share of taxes. can these talks succeed given that kind of opposition? >> it's a sign we're making progress if there's criticism from all sides, george, so, look, the president is encouraged by the progress. we have a lot of paths forward here. you mentioned that there is a bipartisan group working in the senate. there's also a bipartisan group working in the house and we are not delaying for a moment there's a path forward or we're moving forward, i should say, the senate is, on a reconciliation process that can move a lot of the president's bold economic ideas forward and also get corporate tax reform in place that will help pay for a lot of these ideas and also make us more competitive. >> the president is capping his trip with a summit with vladimir putin next week and the latest provocation before the summit, president putin cracked down on the network of the dissident alexei navalny poisoned and in prison. how will president biden confront putin and what is the definition of success for this summit?
7:08 am
>> well, first, george, we're meeting -- the president is meeting with president putin not in spite of our differences, george, but because of them, because that face-to-face diplomacy, the ability to look at someone you have an adversarial relationship with, or have had in the past, and convey where you have concerns, human rights abuses, of course the detainment of individuals of activists certainly a topic of conversation as is the incursions and aggressive activity on the border of ukraine and as is cyberactivity, a huge issue, especially in light of the ransomware attacks we've seen over the last few weeks. this is an opportunity for the president. he will be straightforward and candid. he's not going to hold back. he'll also look for areas where they can agree. at the end of this we will see. we're not expecting to have a huge outcome from this but what we want to do is get back on a path to a more stable and predictable relationship which is in the interest of the united states. >> jen psaki, thanks very much. safe travels. >> thanks so much. george, now to the coronavirus emergency. the cdc is meeting about a possible link between vaccinated

teens and heart inflammation. covid-related hospital admissions are doubling in areas with the lowest vaccination rates. marcus moore is in jackson, mississippi, the state with the lowest rate of vaccinations. good morning, marcus. >> reporter: michael, good morning. here in mississippi and across the nation there has been a race to vaccinate americans, but a lot of people are reluctant and this morning parents of teenagers have their eyes on the cdc. this morning, a cdc advisory panel is working to confirm whether a link exists between mrna vaccines, pfizer and moderna, and potential heart problems in vaccinated teens particularly in adolescent males. the panel warning of a higher than expected number of cases, of myocarditis and pericarditis, conditions that can cause inflammation of the heart muscle and outer lining of the heart but the cdc also notes that reports are still rare and that most patients responded well to medication and rest and quickly felt better. this as variants continue to spread nationwide. over the past week,
7:10 am
covid-related hospitalizations doubling in counties with the lowest vaccination rates compared to counties with higher full vaccination numbers. in mississippi, the vaccination rate is the lowest in the country. only about 27% of the total population is fully vaccinated. this vaccine center sits directly across the street from a funeral home and is virtually empty. this local pastor, who nearly died from covid, is planning more outreach, encouraging others to get vaccinated to protect their community. >> who wouldn't want to take that chance of receiving a shot to prevent this to happen to them? i'll tell you, it's horrifying. >> reporter: the pastor spent 80 days in the hospital and he says doctors only gave him a 2% chance of survival. he's now devoting his time to encouraging members of his community to get vaccinated, george, as we all wait to hear about tat cdc meeting this morning. >> yes, we are waiting.
7:11 am
marcus, thanks very much. we have an update now on the keystone xl pipeline. the canadian company behind the controversial project announced it's pulled the plug marking historic victory for environmentalists. the company failed to convince president biden to reconsider after he revoked the permit on his first day in office shutting down construction amid concerns it would speed up climate change. the pipeline was supposed to carry crude oil from canada to the gulf coast. now to the new report on the clearing of lafayette park during the height of the george floyd protests. the investigation found that the action by the united states park police was not taken so that president trump could stage a photo-op. jon karl is live in washington with the details. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, george. donald trump began his walk over to this church last june just 21 minutes after the park police and other law enforcement forcefully and violently cleared this area of protesters. but this new report says that that action was taken so that a fence could be built and that there is no evidence that the police acted to make room for the president's photo-op.
7:12 am
it's perhaps the most infamous photo-op of his presidency, donald trump holding up a bible in front of st. john's church last summer. just 21 minutes before he began his walk to the church, protesters were forcefully removed from the surrounding area by park police and other law enforcement. it appeared to clear the way for the president. but now, an internal investigation says there is no evidence the operation had anything to do with trump's walk from the white house to the church. >> we did not find evidence that a potential presidential visit to the park or st. john's church influenced the park police's decision-making or deployment. >> reporter: according to the report, demonstrators were pushed out to allow contractors to build a fence, a response to damage done during the two previous nights of rioting, and the report says the park police didn't even know about the president's intentions until
7:13 am
they had made their own plans. the operation turned violent and injured many including this australian news crew. >> whoa. >> reporter: as they tried to evacuate. something not addressed by the report. but the report did find that tear gas and other chemical irritants were used against the crowd and that most people could not hear the audio warning issued before the police moved in. at the time, donald trump praised the action of law enforcement for what they did to clear the area around this church in lafayette park, but after this report came out yesterday, there was a statement from donald trump thanking the inspector general and saying that his findings totally exonerated him from the decision to clear the protesters from this area. george? >> and the i.g. said that made him uncomfortable. okay, jon, thanks very much. robin? george, now to that flash flood emergency in the south. crews rescuing people trapped by the fast-moving waters. sam champion is in for ginger with that.
7:14 am
good morning, sam. >> good morning, robin. good to see you. this was a tough night. these were overnight flooding thunderstorms in northern mississippi. that's where that flash flood emergency is from basically the tennessee border almost all the way to jackson but that's not the only place with tough flash flooding. let me show you some pictures out of richmond. so many water rescues in a short period of time that the fire department in richmond said just don't touch the roads. don't go out but again 19 people they had to rescue. you're looking at arkansas. that's a flooded church. 20 inches of rain in about 48 hours in arkansas. it's an unbelievable amount of rain and i want to show you one more image. this is why we say don't drive across the roads, even if it's a nighborhood that you know and you think that's water i can get through it. that may be underneath the road. the same storms redevelop overnight back into mississppi, also alabama, but some in virginia and north carolina as well. robin? >> all right, sam, good to have you with us this morning. michael? we go from all that rain to the drought crisis in the west. the biggest reservoir in the

8:30 am
through friday. ♪ here we go now ♪ we hope your thursday is off to a good start and now our next two guests have been in more than 340 films and tv shows combined. they have not shared the screen together until now. >> how is that possible? luke wilson and martin sheen are both starring in the new movie "12 mighty orphans." it's the true story of a ft. worth orphanage football team that went to playing without shoes to taking on the texas state championship. they're with us live. good morning, guys. how are you two doing? >> real good. >> good morning, michael. doing great. >> it's great to see you both, luke, in the movie you play coach russell, and you're also a math teacher and you bring this
8:31 am
unlikely team to miracle heights. you said learning football plays was harder than learning your lines? >> well, yeah, i moon i can always -- i'm pretty good about learning dialogue. ki pick it up pretty quickly but, you know, i'm somebody that i took fifth grade math twice, so when i had to learn the teaching of the math scenes, that was a bit -- that was a bit of a challenge and also kept thinking about, you know, all my math teachers seeing me up there on the big screen and wondering what i was doing teaching math so i had to get over thinking about mrs. johnson and mr. and all those math teachers that were so kind to me while i struggled through their classes. i had to get over that, but, yeah. >> it worked out for you just perfectly fine and, martin, we were at that hospitality of texas is my home state, it is -- it's luke's home state as well. you say the hospitality in texas for you when you filmed the
8:32 am
movie was out of this world but i have a question, was luke a good host while you were there at least? i hope he represented us well. >> he was quite so and his mother too, very famous texan, you know, luke will have to tell you about her from ft. worth but, you know, we rented a home in weatherford, texas, where we shot the majority of the film and the actual building is a working orphanage in weatherford called the texas pithian home and they were generous and very -- gave us warm hospitality. we filmed interior and exterior at the orphanage and sometimes a few of the orphans would participate so they were very, very hospitable. in fact, you know, this motto you texans have, you know, don't mess with texas, i'll mess with texas any day of the week. >> in a good way, in a good way. >> i can't wait to get back. i'll wait till the weather cools off a bit.
8:33 am
>> smart. >> sure they were very happy to have you both there and it's hard to believe that this is the first time you all have been together on screen because it's magic. both of you together are magic. luke, we hear that you all did a lot of ad-libbing? >> well, i mean, there are all these kind of coaching scenes where you're kind of standing on the sidelines and so you have just a lot of time where you're just kind of standing there and martin is one of those guys where he just has such great ideas and i'd make up a line and say it to martin and he wouldn't miss a beat and he'd have an even funnier line to say right back to me so we're just kind of trying to amuse ourselves but a lot of it has made it into the movie so, yeah, we really had fun working together and martin is just, he's one of those people that, you know, i've admired for so long and looked up to and then you meet him in person and he, you know -- -- --
8:34 am
exceeds all expectations by far and i had a funny moment with him on set where i know martin had four boys and i could tell how much he liked being around all these real nice kids that were playing our football players, the orphans and i'd say to martin, i know my dad having three sons that he loved having boys but i know that sometimes we kind of drove him a little bit crazy and i asked martin did he enjoy having boys and martin said his only regret was he didn't have four more sons, so you knew you have the right person on the movie because he just loved being around those kids. >> luke, martin mentioned your mom -- go ahead, martin. >> no, i was just saying a lot of the kids in the film that play the footballers are texans from the community and some of them had never played football before and a few of them had never seen a movie camera or
8:35 am
been on a set before so they're quite extraordinary. they formed a team before we started filming. these kids arrived and learned the plays and got to know each other and they formed a very tight unit by the time we got there, so that was one of the most rewarding parts of it was working with these kids. >> let's see a clip. >> i can't do it. >> what are you talking about? you told -- >> i said i might do it. >> you told me -- >> you're the head coach. >> i'll tell it to you straight, boys. bad news is each one of you is going to need to put on about ten pounds because you all are going to play class a texas high school football and i'll see you on the field. good job. come on. huh? [ applause ] >> got that texas accent down. >> i would put on ten pounds for that. >> yeah, we need to get
8:36 am
mchael -- michael's going to be the expert on this movie and need him to see the movie and see if it all rings true. >> no doubt. i'm in for that. i'm in 100%. >> can't wait for everyone to see it.

♪ what doesn't kill you ♪ we're back with a tribute to the mother of women's judo. her name is rusty kanokogi. her life is being remembered. it's a new book and thanks to her daughter jean and i sat down with jean to talk about rusty's life, legacy and her impact on the world of sports. >> rusty was a relentless powerhouse. if she wanted something, rusty would go after it and nothing would stop her. >> reena kanokogi, a/k/a rusty was a force of nature. today known as the mother of women's judo but as a young girl growing up in coney island, brooklyn, she was headed down the wrong path and it was judo that helped rusty find her way as she explained on "fast copy" in 1986. >> i guess it was judo that saved my life and this guy had taken a class at a "y" and did
8:40 am
some judo. when he picked me up like i was a piece of paper, that was it. it was magic to me. >> i love the smile as you're watching and seeing your mother. how did judo save her life. >> she started in the streets of coney island. so she came from a broken childhood and being able to actually go and fight and train and learn a philosophy is how it saved her life. >> the mother of women's judo. the sport and even really beyond that wouldn't be what it is without her. >> she didn't understand why women couldn't compete. why there was no world championships. why there was no olympics, so little girls and women didn't even have the dream, couldn't have the dream. it wasn't allowed. >> rusty made it her life's mission to fight for equality in women's sports and in judo. now her daughter, jean, is helping carry on her mother's legacy in a new book, "get up & fight." your bow loved mother passed away in 2009. she had been working on this. >> yes. >> and you brought it to
8:41 am
reality. why was it so important to you to finish her work? >> i made several promises before she passed away and one of them was to get her story out. she needed the world to know her story in her voice. she worked so hard along with billie jean king and fought for title 9 with the women's sports foundation, all of this is her direction. >> rusty faced many barriers including being forced to forfeit a gold medal she won in a 1959 competition after officials learned she had disguised herself as a man but rusty dared to dream big. in 1988, the seoul olympics. judo became for women an olympic sport because of your mom. >> it wasn't an easy path as you can imagine. she teamed up with the american civil liberties union and took on the international olympic committee and sued for discrimination and won. and when she marched into that stadium in seoul, korea, as the olympic coach, that was her gold
8:42 am
medal. >> it's more than just a sports story, isn't it, and how many people can pick this up and be impacted by it. >> she wanted to inspire people as she was following her dream so she used this story to really gather people along the way and have them find their get up and fight within themselves. >> let me tell you it was a hoot to know this woman and i did and when i'm introducing my mother to rusty it was at the women's sports foundation dinner, the picture in 2005, so incredible, her story and you have to know more about it. her daughter jean, she's a federal agent. a u.s. federal agent and she happens to be a fifth degree belt, black belt in judo. please, the book, "get up & fight," it's available now on amazon. can you find it in book stores, online. there is so much to rusty's story, sam. >> seems like it, yeah. >> that is a story worth reading. all right. let's take a look at what's going on in miami. why? i don't know but our friends at
