logan saying america was already dangerously divided, and this can make things worse. >> let's right to abc's ike ejiochi who begins our coverage from washington this morning. ike, good morning. >> reporter: good morning, andrew. we are learning more about that fbi search at former president trump's home in florida. and now one of his top allies in congress is facing scrutiny. one day after the unprecedented fbi search at mar-a-lago, a leading trump ally now says he's the target of the fbi. pennsylvania congressman scott perry, who has been in the headlines recently for refusing to appear before the january 6th committee, saying in a statement, while traveling with my family, three fbi agents visited me and seized my cell phone. the fbi has not commented. but perry has been a major figure in the investigation into trump's actions after the 2020 election allegedly playing a key role in trump's attempt to install an acting attorney general who pushed baseless claims of voter fraud, meanwhile, we're learning more about the time line surrounding monday's search at trump's florida home.

the fbi gave the secret service members stationed at mar-a-lago 45 minutes' notice. the secret service only alerted resort staff moments before the fbi agents arrived. a staffer then alerted the former president's son eric who told his father. sources say the search was related to allegations that the former president improperly removed documents when he left the white house. documents brought to mar-a-lago that are believed to include classified material. the president issuing a new statement late yesterday calling the search a horrible thing and a coordinated attack by democrats. trump's allies rallying around him. many attacking the fbi, which is run by a trump appointee, but most of their attacks have been aimed at the justice department and attorney general merrick garland. >> you should never use the justice department on a political whim like this, and i think that's the real question that we're looking at. >> reporter: garland said no one should be given a pass if they've broken the law. >> no person is above the law in this country.

nothing stops us -- >> even a former president? >> i don't know how to -- maybe i'll say that again. no person is above the law in this country. >> reporter: but republicans are demanding garland explain why the mar-a-lago was necessary. >> merrick garland, chris wray come to the house judiciary committee this friday and answer our questions. what was on the warrant? what were you really doing? what were you looking for? >> reporter: while the justice department has a policy of not commenting on ongoing investigations, trump was given a copy of the warrant and could shed light on the reason for the search if he wants to. >> he does have it, and he absolutely could release it. there is nothing stopping him from doing so. the warrant would provide some details on what they were looking for. it's not as detailed as the affidavit. there's an affidavit that would have been presented to the judge that would establish probable cause that a search would yield evidence of a crime. >> reporter: now, monday wasn't the first time federal law enforcement has visited mar-a-lago on this matter. a small team of agents visited

last spring meeting with trump's lawyers and reviewing documents while the former president was there. andrew. >> all right, ike, thank you. the search at mar-a-lago has triggered new calls for trump to immediately announce he's running for president in 2024. republicans had initially urged him to wait until after the midterm elections fearing he would hurt gop candidates, but now they're hoping to capitalize on his re-energized base. senator lindsey graham says he's been speaking with him. >> i believed he was going to run before. i'm stronger in my belief now. >> one trump adviser said the fbi search at mar-a-lago guarantees trump will bring in three times the money he was expected to raise. in wisconsin overnight trump notched another victory in his proxy war with former vice president mike pence. trump backed businessman tim michaels clinched the republican nomination for governor and beat the former lieutenant governor who was endorsed by pence. in new jersey, crews raced to rescue victims from a megabus

that overturned on the new jersey turnpike hitting a truck. one person on the bus was killed. five others including the bus driver suffered serious injuries. the bus was heading to philadelphia. after months of paying higher and higher prices at the store, gas station and online, americans appear to finally be getting a break. a new report this morning could show that inflation has finally peaked. this morning, good news for your wallet. prices for nearly everything from gas and food to flights and even housing are slowly coming down. gas now below $4 a gallon nationwide after dropping for 57 consecutive days thanks to lower demand and falling oil prices. airfares also dropping. round trip domestic flights for september and october are now expected to drop nearly 40%. >> we're actually seeing prices drop. so usually you see a drop-off in september in the fall of travel season, what we call shoulder season. we have seen that trend this year magnified.

>> global food prices dropping too down nearly 9% from june thanks in part to an agreement between ukraine and russia to resume grain imports. prices could drop even more thanks to lower transportation costs. and this morning, more deals for shoppers online where overall prices are down for the first time in more than two years. even housing prices could be coming down soon. realtor.com says housing inventory in the u.s. grew for a third consecutive month meaning a buyers market could be coming. experts say all of this suggests that inflation at a 40-year high could finally be cooling. a monthly report due out today is expected to show that year over year the pace of inflation in july fell to 8.7%. still high, but down from the 9.1% we saw in june. >> we do believe it's in the process of peaking, so, you know, that is hard to put an exact month on that or even quarter on that, but we do think it'll flatten out, and then we expect it to decline from here. we're encouraged by what we're

seeing. >> it's not all good news. most analysts believe gas prices will keep hovering around $4 through the fall, and with the war in ukraine raging and the fed meeting next month to discuss interest rates, there's still a lot of uncertainty in the economy. >> the suspect in the murders of at least two muslim men in new mexico says he's innocent. muhammad syed is accused of killing two fellow muslim men in albuquerque and he's considered a prime suspect in two other murders. detectives say syed denies involvement in the killings but acknowledged knowing one victim since 2016. police believe he had some kind of conflict with the men. a nebraska woman has been charged with helping her 17-year-old daughter have an abortion about 24 weeks into her pregnancy. abortions after 20 weeks have been illegal in the state for over a decade. prosecutors say they obtained facebook messages in which the mother and daughter discuss plans to end the pregnancy with abortion pills. facebook is explaining its decision to e chs to law ement s n e valid ceedend

abortions. >> all right. time now for a look at your wednesday weather. so this was the scene near charlotte, north carolina, yesterday. more strong storms expected in the carolinas today. some trees and power lines came down. no injuries reported. on the radar more rain from texas into the southeast and monsoon storms could trigger more flash flooding in the southwest. checking today's high temperatures, some relief from the heat in the northeast and the northwest. mid-80s around the great lakes and still very hot across the plains, 91 in miami. 100 in phoenix. 98 in dallas. coming up, remembering a motown legend. also ahead, the fiery plane crash on this busy highway. how the people inside survived. and later, domino's pizza learns a lesson from the birthplace of pizza.

she's now in her 80s. her claim that till grabbed her in the family store led to his death. now to california and the small plane that made a crash landing on a highway despite the images authorities say, it could have been far worse. >> reporter: this morning, video shows the moment firefighters responded to a plane crash on the 91 freeway in corona, california. seconds earlier, surveillance cameras captured the single engine plane dropping from the sky. careening into a truck full of people before bursting into flames. >> oh, plane crash! >> reporter: authorities say miraculously, the three people in the truck and the pilot and passenger in the plane were able to escape. walking away without any serious injuries.>> is he out of there? >> yeah. they're out. >> the pilot explains to have

experienced possible engine failure on their final descent. they were forced into the traffic lanes during a forced landing. >> reporter: police say this could have been much worse, had the crash happened later during rush hour when traffic would have been bumper-to-bumper. >> absolutely very fortunate today. the traffic was light. the pilot appears to have made some good landing navigation, avoiding a very bad tragic. >> the california highway patrol and faa are now looking into the exact cause of the crash. mona? andrew? >> thank you. coming up, the copy and paste mistake that led to a real estate night player. first the doctor accused of trying the poison her husband with draino. the from prom dresses to workouts and new adventures you hope the more you give the less they'll miss. but even if your teen was vaccinated against meningitis in the past

back now with the overnight rescue of a beluga whale that was stranded in the river seine for more than a week. the 13-foot whale will be treated before being released into the wild. eperts aren't sure why it strayed so far. we turn now to a california doctor accused of trying to poison her husband with drano. abc's matt gutman has the images at the center of the investigation. >> reporter: the california dermatologist arrested for allegedly poisoning her husband. 45-year-old yue "emily" yu booked on thursday after her husband, dr. jack chen, reported his suspicion to

restraining order for himself and their two kids. now, yu was arrested and released on bail. a judge has approved that temporary restraining order against her, and now the orange county d.a. says they are reviewing the evidence to determine whether to bring charges against her. matt gutman, abc news, los angeles. >> our thanks to matt. walmart shoppers may soon have a new item on their virtual shelves. the company is reportedly looking into launching its own streaming service to compete with amazon prime.
