and good morning, america. so great to have you with us. we have an exciting morning here on day three of the queen's jubilee. the biggest party on the planet and eva is right out there in the mix anchoring our coverage from london. eva, good morning. >> reporter: hey, good morning, guys. we're here in the uk. the big events today include the annual epsom derby horse race and the party at the palace with a concert tonight headlined by the queen of motown, diana ross, so excited for that. we have lots to keep up with. we'll have much, much more ahead. >> cannot wait for all of that, eva. i'm sure you are having a blast out there. we do have a lot to cover here at home including new details emerging in the texas school massacre. even as the white house marked national gun violence awareness day by lighting the building you see there in orange. we'll go to texas for the latest on the investigation in just a moment. but we begin here with that big storm sweeping through florida, bringing the threat of
7:03 am
heavy rain and flash flooding. sam champion is in this morning joining us from miami with the latest. and, sam, i understand you had to get through some deep water just to even get to your live location. good morning. >> reporter: yeah, whit, waist deep water in downtown miami. this morning, heavy rain and wind from what is still an unnamed storm but may become tropical storm alex once it leaves florida. intense flooding rain in miami turning streets into rivers. drivers daring to push through. >> it's a corvette. what are people doing? >> reporter: dozens not making it. this car left drifting in the high water. this woman trying to push her stranded car out of the dangerous floodwaters. rough seas creating danger for small vessels. carnival cruise lines rescuing 16 people off cuba's coast friday morning. and 90 miles away in key west fierce waves crashing against seawalls and already flooding on florida's gulf coast as well. here on marco island, the storm
7:04 am
surge could reach three feet. as floridians wait out the storm the boardwalk in hollywood boulevard is empty. warning everyone to stay prepared for this early season storm. >> this may not be a full hurricane that oftentimes comes to our shores, but it is a wacoup call to those in our community, get red i, be prepared. prepare for the worst. >> reporter: this is an all-day rain event for particularly the east coast of florida. we'll pull this storm out of the way. there are tropical storm warnings for south florida right now. watch the heavy banding of rain. that's the problem. in some cases up to three inches of rain an hour falling in some locations. others can get up to 15 we think out of this storm. janai? >> all right, sam. waist deep water. please be careful out there. we appreciate you. turning now to the new details that we're learning more than a week after the school massacre in uvalde, texas. abc's elwyn lopez is live from san antonio as the information is now focusing on how the school went into lockdown. elwyn, good morning. >> reporter: hey, janai.
7:05 am
this community and the nation continues to mourn as those who are brutally taken away are still being laid to rest, and now we're learning what happened just moments before that gunman rushed in unleashing the deadliest mass shooting in a school in nearly a decade. overnight the uvalde school board announcing robb elementary will permanently close its doors following the tragic shooting massacre. >> we are not going back to robb school. that will not be a school for our children moving forward. >> reporter: the school board also taking no action against its embattled police chief pete arredondo who arrived at the scene without his police radio according to a "new york times" report. arredondo wrongly believed the situation was no longer an active shooter but instead a barricaded subject as 911 calls kept pouring in. one of those calls from 10-year-old student khloe torres quietly telling a 911 dispatcher, quote, please send help for my teacher.
7:06 am
she is shot but still alive. now survivors of this massacre preparing to take their story to congress and make the case for gun reform. members of congress will also hear from relatives of survivors and victims from the topps grocery store shooting. >> i have conversations all the time about racism and, you know, gun violence, and now it's my story. so it's extremely important for me to be there to represent my community. >> reporter: vice president kamala harris at the u.s. conference of mayors urging lawmakers to take action. >> no 9-year-old should be afraid to go to school, and no 18-year-old should be able to buy a weapon of war. >> reporter: but on capitol hill talks already being mired down in partisan tensions. >> here's a gun i carry every single day to protect myself, my family, my wife, my home. >> i hope to god that is not loaded. >> i'm at my house.
7:07 am
i can do whatever i want with my guns. >> reporter: and the father of 10-year-old amerie jo garza is taking action. he has retained the same team of attorneys that sued the makers of the gun used in sandy hook, and now they have issued a letter to the makers of the ar-15 that was used in this shooting. eva? >> elwyn lopez there for us in texas. to washington now and the latest on the january 6th riot investigation. a former trump white house official charged with contempt for defying a congressional subpoena. abc's maryalice parks is live on capitol hill with more. good morning, maryalice. >> reporter: eva, good morning. peter navarro was a very high-profile familiar face in the trump white house, and yesterday he was taken into custody by law enforcement and appeared in court to respond to these criminal contempt charges. he faces two counts, one for refusing to testify before the congressional committee that's investigating the attack on january 6th and the second for refusing to turn over documents
7:08 am
the committee had subpoenaed. both of those counts carry a maximum sentence of a year in prison, of up to a year in prison and a fine of up to $100,000. and the indictment against navarro is interesting because it is the first time that someone who was serving in the white house during the attack on january 6th has been charged in connection with the investigation. also last night, the department of justice informed congress that they did not plan to bring criminal charges against mark meadows, trump's chief of staff or dan scavino, the deputy chief of staff. the house found both of them were also in contempt for refusing to cooperate with the committee's investigation, but the difference is that both of them had engaged at least a little bit with the committee in the beginning. and the congressional committee chairs overnight responded to this news. they said that they agreed with the decision to indict navarro but that they found the other decisions puzzling. they added that they thought both of those other two unquestionably had relevant knowledge. they asked the department of justice to clarify. big picture, it is clear the department of justice is handling each of these cases
7:09 am
individually, and all of this comes as the committee prepares for their first public hearings next week. whit? >> all right, maryalice, thanks. we turn now to the war in ukraine passing the 100-day mark since the russian invasion. abc's britt clennett is live in kyiv with more. britt, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, whit. that's right. more than 100 days on a somber milestone in what ukrainians are now calling a war of fortitude. this morning, more than a hundred days into russia's invasion of ukraine, moscow staking its claim in the war-torn country. russian forces still locked in a bitter battle for a few hold-out ukrainian strongholds in the donbas region. 20% of ukraine, including the annexed crimea, now under russian control according to ukrainian president zelenskyy. this, as russia's naval blockade of the black sea threatens a global food crisis. u.n. officials warning the blockade could impact
7:10 am
1.4 billion people worldwide. zelenskyy addresing the u.s. conference of mayors urging city officials to sever ties with russia. the war also heightening its impact on children, something ukrainian first lady olena zelenska was passionate to highlight in an exclusive interview with our robin roberts in kyiv this week. the first lady saying, around 1,600 schools in ukraine were destroyed or completely leveled to the ground. the child death toll in ukraine increasing to an alarming 262. this kindergarten in northwest kyiv re-opening for the first time since russia's invasion. teacher natalia asking her students, children, do you know why we're here? the children replying, yes, because it's a war. people have already spent weeks underground in this very bunker, but it's now been fitted out for kids. they learn in this classroom. they play in these areas.
7:11 am
head teacher hannah telling me it's a pity, but they know from their parents what to do when the sirens go off. "it's sad that our children now know how to react very quickly." and today is the u.n. observed day for protecting kids in conflict. the u.s. ambassador here joining the ukrainian first lady in mourning the 262 kids killed in this war. whit? >> britt, thank you. >> joining us now is abc news contributor and retired u.s. army lieutenant general douglas lute, a former u.s. ambassador to nato. general lute, always good to have you. as we noted there, it's been more than 100 days since the start of russia's invasion in ukraine. there appears to be no end in sight. where do things stand as the war enters this new phase? >> well, 100 days in, it's clear that ukraine won the first phase. this is the fight in and around their capital city of kyiv, and now we're into what might be referred to as phase two.
7:12 am
this is a fight that's focused very much in eastern ukraine in the so-called donbas region, and this is an area where the russians have certain advantages. first of all, they've narrowed their front, so they have less area to be concerned with. but, second of all, their supply lines now are much shorter because the donbas abuts up against russia itself, and i think this fight will be long, protracted and brutal. we can expect, i think, months of fighting in the donbas. >> so speaking of those russian advantages and the efforts to blunt that, tell us about those new advanced weapon systems the u.s. is sending to ukraine. there are conditions attached to these, but can they still make a big difference? >> they can, so just this last week the biden administration announced the release of longer-range rocket systems. so this is rocket artillery which essentially doubles the range available to our ukrainian partners, and it will permit them to strike deeper into their own country, deeper into ukraine, into russian held
7:13 am
ukrainian territory and hit in particular command posts, artillery positions and, very important, the russian supply lines. so these systems will make a difference. they won't be decisive. they're not war winners by themselves, but they will make an important difference in favor of the ukrainians. >> general lute, thank you so much for your time this morning. we appreciate it. janai, over to you. back here at home now to a place police are calling the targeted killing of a retired judge. authorities saying the suspect had more plans to go after members of the judicial system. abc's phil lipof joins us as authorities say the suspect had plans to go after more people in the judicial system. phil, good morning. >> good morning, janai. this is scary. this morning police are confident this was a targeted attack against the judge. they are now looking, of course, to get more information from the man they say pulled the trigger as he remains in custody in the hospital. this morning, former juneau county judge, john roemer, killed in what police believe was a targeted shooting at his home. the suspected shooter injured
7:14 am
and in custody at the hospital. >> his neighbor's son from across the street is banging on the door stating that someone murdered his father. >> reporter: police say they received a 911 call 6:30 friday morning from someone who lived in the home but was calling across the street. the caller said there was an armed man in the house, and two shots had been fired. after trying to negotiate with the suspect for some time, police entered the house where they say they found the homeowner dead and a suspect in the basement with an apparent self-inflicted gunshot wound. wisconsin's attorney general saying the shooting was over, quote, a court case or court cases, and the suspect had other potential targets in the judicial system, and reports from milwaukee saying governor tony evers was also on the list. >> we have been able to contact the people who we believe may have been targets and to notify them. the others, as far as we're aware, are safe at this point. >> reporter: as the suspect recovers, investigators will take a closer look now whether there were warning signs.
7:15 am
>> typically security for judges is based on threats. it's all going to be driven by known threats, because there isn't enough manpower obviously to guard every judge at every level in this country, and we'll see in the coming days how much law enforcement actually knew about this alleged shooter. >> daniel's law is named after the son of judge esther salas. daniel was shot and killed in their home back in 2020. the law passed by the new jersey legislature protects federal judges and their families by safeguarding identifiable personal information like home addresses. salas is now working to get that passed nationwide. whit? >> all right, phil, thank you. now to unemployment. the jobless rate holding steady in may for a third straight month at 3.6%. this is close to the prepandemic low with more jobs added to the economy than some expected. abc's deirdre bolton is here with more. deidre, good morning.
7:16 am
>> reporter: good morning. for workers especially teenagers this could be the best summer job market in more than a decade. there are more jobs than workers. some employers are struggling to find people to wait tables, staff factories, guard swimming pools. by category here is where the most jobs were added in may. leisure and hospitality, professional and business services and transportation and warehousing. the labor market is hot. it's full of opportunities, but inflation is hotter. we all know it. we all feel it. it takes more money to fill up at the pump. it takes more money to go to the grocery store, to pay rent. americans are making more on average, but wage gains are not enough to keep pace with rising prices. 8.3% inflation, a four-decade high, so real wage growth or purchasing power is falling. >> and, deidre, obviously when you're talking about inflation rates, the highest in a generation, some business leaders are sounding gloomy about inflation and the economy. what are you hearing? >> they sure are. tesla founder, elon musk, saying he has a super bad feeling about
7:17 am
the economy thinking of cutting 10% of jobs. on the other hand, one tesla competitor, ford, says it is going full speed ahead with electric vehicle production, will add jobs. jpmorgan chase, jamie dimon, he's warning of an economic hurricane and advised those listening to brace themselves. the fed, as we know, trying to slow the economy, curb inflation by rising rates. that means americans will pay more for interest on credit card loans, mortgages. the question is how much the fed will tighten, how quickly and how it affects us all. >> don't know how to feel about that super bad feeling. good movie, though, "superbad." all right, let's go back out to eva and more from the jubilee. eva, good morning. >> reporter: hey, whit. a little rain in the forecast here but it's not dampening spirits. right now we have beautiful sunshine as day three of the platinum jubilee gets into full swing. great britain and the world celebrating queen elizabeth's 70 years on the throne. prince charles, the duchess of cornwall, prince william and the
7:18 am
duchess of cambridge leading the service of thanksgiving friday at st. paul's cathedral. the 96-year-old queen watching on television from her home at windsor castle, but her presence was felt by one and all as the longest serving monarch in british history. the palace saying she experienced some discomfort after her appearance on the balcony on thursday for trooping the colour where she stood to the cheers of thousands of people below, and we all saw her connect with william and kate's youngest child, 4-year-old prince louis, who, you know, we all couldn't help but enjoy his reaction to everything. the duke and duchess of sussex, harry and meghan, making their first appearance together in the uk in more than two years. their youngest, lilibet, named for the queen celebrating her birthday today, having met her namesake this week for the first time and getting a royal family birthday wish on twitter. the strain of the recent past seems to have been put aside to honor a woman who is a mother, a grandmother and great
7:19 am
grandmother of a nation, a woman who is seen as an inspiration the world over. and in just a few hours, some of the royal family, including princess anne, will attend the epsom derby horse race. the palace announced the queen will not be going, but she will be watching at home again in windsor, and tonight is the queen's platinum party at the palace. diana ross and andrea bocelli are some of the big names that are expected to perform. there are even more events planned here for sunday. so much fun still to happen this weekend. let's switch gears now and get a check of the weather with sam champion joining us with some severe weather happening in miami. hey, sam. >> reporter: hey, good morning, janai. yeah, this is yet an unnamed tropical system so it is potential tropical cyclone 1. if probably gets the name alex once it leaves the coast of florida, but we are under tropical storm warnings all day long today. look at this intense rain as it moves up the east coast in florida. it is likely we'll see parts of the area that get
7:20 am
6 to 12 inches of rain, maybe 15 plus inches in this area. lots of floodw lisa: good saturday morning. waking up to low clouds, fog. you can see san francisco in the low cloud deck. a cloudy day today and fog will reduce visibility early this morning along the coast. light to moderate showers heading into the bay area, mainly to the north of the golden gate. 60's and 70's out there with a rapid warming trend as we get >> it is a fast-moving tropical mess and likely to be off the coast by the time we get into evening hours taking the rain with it. guys? >> you are sopping wet, sam. but at least that microphone you had in the plastic bag, that was hanging in there. that big ziploc. >> reporter: come on. it's working. it's working. >> sorry, got to keep the equipment dry. forget about the meteorologist.
7:21 am
sam, it's great to have you this morning. we appreciate it. we'll check back in in a little bit. the chances of being accepted into one ivy league university, about 3% to 8%. so you can imagine the excitement when a florida high school senior got a yes and another yes and another. they just kept on coming. miami beach senior high school student body president, ashley adirika, got into all eight ivy league universities, and she's made her choice, harvard university on a full scholarship. >> wow! full scholarship too? >> how many did you get into, pjanai? >> seven. >> that's right. of course. eva, as well? >> reporter: i only applied to schools i thought i would get into, you know. >> play to win. >> reporter: congratulations to her. yeah. well, coming up, "gma" at the jubilee will be back here in london ahead of the big royal concert that's happening this evening. and the royal lineup will get an inside look at tonight's events from our royal contributors. plus, high-tech travel. how airlines and airports are making sure you have a smoother journey. we'll be right back.

7:32 am
performers, and joining us with more are royal contributors victoria murphy and imogen lloyd webber. thanks so much for being with us. victoria, let's start with the concert. there's supposed to be some 22,000 people at this event. what are the expected highlights? >> hi, eva. well, it's going to be, i think, truly spectacular. we've got more than 2 1/2 hours of musical performances from artists right across the generations. also spoken tributes. we're expecting some special illuminations as well on the backdrop of the palace. diana ross will be headlining and will be giving the final performance, but before that we're also expecting some very special tributes from prince charles and prince william. they are both going to speak separately towards the end, we are told. and the queen won't be there, so i think those personal tributes will really be a highlight. >> imogen, we know your father is andrew lloyd webber. he is doing something special with lin-manuel miranda. do you have any idea what's going on? >> i will set the scene for you. so dad has been given 10 to 15
7:33 am
minutes to curate a musical segment. so you'll have a couple of his shows, "phantom" and "joseph and the amazing technicolor dreamcoat." that's always good for a singalong and tapped the queens from "six," all about the wives of henry viii. he has "the lion king." let's hope it doesn't rain because those outfits, that would not be a good idea. and then he called his friend lin-manuel miranda, and when we think about lin and musicals, we think "hamilton." and when we think about the monarchy and "hamilton," we think king george iii. and it's particularly complimentary, so let's just hope the aforementioned charles and william have senses of humor in the royal box, because i spoke to dad on thursday, and he just had the most mischievous glint in his eye, and that's all i'm going to say. >> so they are up to something. >> they're up to something. i mean, they're very respectful obviously, but they do like to have fun so let's see where that ends up. it will be compulsive viewing. >> you guys heard it here first. we've got the inside scoop. now, victoria, yesterday was sort of the more religious part
7:34 am
of this holiday weekend, the thanksgiving service. what was that like? >> well, i was inside the cathedral for the service actually, and it was very special. you know, it felt very poignant to be there, to be marking that moment. but, of course, more poignant because the queen wasn't there and i think we did really feel that when we stood up and sang the national anthem at the end and to be singing that in her absence did feel quite poignant. obviously a lot of attention as well yesterday on harry and meghan. that was their first proper public appearance with the royal family since returning to the uk for this platinum jubilee, and it didn't go unnoticed that william and harry were sitting very far apart, and the brothers haven't been photographed together during this visit, and it does suggest that there is still quite a significant amount of distance between them. >> yeah, and everyone seemed to notice that almost immediately yesterday. looking at the concert tonight, i know, imogen, you will attend. >> i managed to get a ticket. i don't know how. >> they are actually quite hard to get. >> they are very hard to get. >> what's next on the jubilee agenda?
7:35 am
>> so you've got a great big jubilee lunch happening tomorrow and pageant. a lot of activity outside buckingham palace, and, of course, what we're really hoping is another glimpse of the queen on the balcony. she'll be devastated to have missed the derby today. horse racing is her absolute favorite thing to do. so fingers crossed we have that final glimpse after an extraordinary four days in london. >> and so many people realizing just how special it is to have the celebration with as old as she is right now and seeing her, the few times we've gotten to see her on this holiday weekend. >> absolutely. >> reporter: and just so you guys know, we have special access to this concert tonight. you guys know how not cool i am. we're going to be backstage. we're going to bring you all the fun from backstage tomorrow morning, so you'll want to see all the awkward interactions i have with these amazing singers so definitely tune in for that. guys? >> eva, it's usually you and i in the corner at a party. so i hope you get out of the corner and talk to everybody tonight. >> reporter: i think i have no choice but to not stand in the corner tonight. >> yeah. for those of us that know eva, those awkward interactions, they
7:36 am
are fun though. so we'll look forward to seeing those on camera. lucky you and we'll talk to you later in the show. first, though, we do want to get a check of the weather once again. sam champion in miami. dangerous weather threat there, sam. >> reporter: yeah, hey, whit, hey, guys. it certainly is. the rain is a little lighter right now. i want to show you images because our station wplg in miami has been reporting some rain gauges ten inches of rain on the overnight. flood warnings were popping, just going nuts on phones all night long and throughout the morning. so there is an isolated tornado risk as we're in this tropical storm warning all the way through south florida as we go through the day today. want to show you where some other storms were moving during the country, and last night, yesterday about six tornado reports in colorado, so today there may be a little isolated tornado possibility in this zone. but it's more likely to be wind and hail in those areas in kansas and nebraska but, boy, i got to tell you this flooding situation will be a big story in the miami area all the way up the east coast of florida. that's the
7:37 am
>> reporter: and, guys, the and, guys, the crazy thing about this, it is an unnamed tropical system right now. we haven't been able to find a center of circulation in this all night long, and it may take until this system pulls off the east coast of florida before we find a center of circulation and are able to name it alex. the flooding images that are coming out of florida, we've often said miami is a city in denial about its flooding. wait till you see this in the news coverage today. it is unbelievable. >> doesn't need a name to cause a lot of damage and flooding. that's for sure. all right, sam, thank you so much. coming up here on "good morning america," ready to fly. how the airports and airlines are getting ready for a very busy travel season. >> and then what do you really know about the supplements you're taking and the possible adverse reactions? that's ahead in our "weekend download."
