"the washington post" is reporting that a trump employee
7:03 am
being told to move a box of documents, and it was caught on surveillance cameras. our chief washington correspondent jon karl starts us off. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, george. as the january 6th committee prepares for what is expected to be its final hearing today on capitol hill, the focus is on that new reporting about the documents that donald trump took with him to mar-a-lago when he left the white house. one of donald trump's own employees at mar-a-lago has been cooperating with the justice department according to a new report in "the washington post." "the post" reports the employee told federal investigators that after donald trump received a subpoena for government documents back in may the former president specifically requested the documents be moved. according to "the post," security camera footage from mar-a-lago obtained by the fbi corroborated the employee's descriptions of events. "the post" reports the employee initially denied handling sensitive documents but during a second interview presented with the new evidence, the witness reportedly changed their story dramatically describing moving the boxes at trump's request.
7:04 am
abc news has not confirmed "the post's" reporting. it raises question of whether trump obstructed justice and whether he tried to hide documents that federal officials had asked to be returned, documents that he had taken from the white house after he left office. in august, fbi agents executed a search warrant of mar-a-lago and seized more than 30 boxes of documents, including over 100 government documents marked classified. a spokesperson for the former president reacted to the report, but didn't directly respond to it, accusing the justice department of dangerous political interference. again, no actual reaction to the specifics mentioned in the report. > okay, jon, meantime, you talked about the january 6th committee, what could be their final hearing today. n new live witnesses but lots of new evidence. >> reporter: look at this as the closing argument for the january 6th committee, coming back to
7:05 am
what has really been their central theme and that is that it was donald trump that set in motion the series of events that led to the attack on the capitol on january 6th and it was donald trump's failure to do anything to stop it, even as he saw his own supporters attacking the building. yes, there is new evidence. over the course of the summer the committee interviewed more people. i expect you'll see some video taped depositions and evidence from the secret service that donald trump knew about the danger of violence on that day. george? >> okay, jon, thanks very much. abc will have full coverage of the hearing starting at 1:00 eastern. michael? now to new inflation numbers. chief economics correspondent rebecca jarvis is at the new york stock exchange with what analysts expect for housing prices, rent, gas, and more. good morning, rebecca. >> reporter: good morning to you, michael. the headline here on wall street
7:06 am
is that inflation is more consistent and pervasive than analysts anticipated. that is royaling stocks this morning. in september prices rose 8.2% than a year ago, that's better than august when prices were 8.3%. there are areas where prices are climbing -- rent, up 7.2%. daycare up 5.1%. medical care up 6.5%. groceries up 13%. these are inescapable for most americans and wages are not keeping up. they're rising, but rising less than prices overall and it's costing the typical american family about $500 more a month on the same goods and services just to keep up in this economy. michael? >> what about gas prices? where will they go?
7:07 am
>> reporter: it's a backwards looking report. at september when gasoline prices were largely falling, now with the opec production cuts announced weeks ago, you're starting to see gas prices trend higher. right now they're up about 20 cents from a month ago. the national average this morning $3.91. michael? >> costs a lot to fill up your tank. thank you so much, rebecca. amy? now to the staggering judgment against alex jones, the conspiracy theorist and infowars host who claimed the sandy hook school massacre was a hoax. he's been ordered to pay nearly a billion dollars to the families of eight victims. senior investigative reporter aaron katersky has details for us. good morning, aaron. >> reporter: amy, good morning to you. by any measure this was a stunning verdict. nearly double what the families had hoped for, but there is no solace because they're still grieving their losses nearly ten
7:08 am
kw years later. >> emotional distress damages, past and future, $60 million. >> reporter: robbie parker bowed his head and wept as the jury delivered its astonishing verdict ordering alex jones and his company to pay almost a billion dollars for insisting the massacres that killed emilie parker and 19 other children at sandy hook school was a hoax. >> what we were able to accomplish was to simply tell the truth. it shouldn't be this hard. it shouldn't be this scary. >> reporter: for the parkers and other families it was scary, they testified about torment and threats of violence and death. alyssa parker recalled before her daughter's funeral she cowered in a closet. >> her service was supposed to be about her life and the whole time i'm scared. >> reporter: when alex jones faced the families in court, he did not apologize. >> i already apologized to the parents over and over again. i don't apologize to you. >> objection. >> i don't apologize to you. >> reporter: jones skipped the verdict but mocked it on infowars. >> you get a million. blah, blah, blah. you get $100 million.
7:09 am
you get $50 million. >> reporter: jones claimed he's out of money and asked his audience to flood him with donations. when he came to connecticut to testify "the new york times" reported he flew on a private jet and rented a villa with a pool and tennis court. >> the families will see some of the money. they're certainly not going to see all the money. the families have already been tracking his movements of assets and this is going to become a serious game of cat and mouse. >> reporter: in fact, we spoke to the families' lawyers who said they would scrap for every dollar they can collect. it's not about the money. the families hope this verdict and an earlier one in texas for $50 million would muzzle alex jones who still faces one more defamation trial this year. george? >> aaron katersky, thanks. the latest on the war in ukraine. new details about the american volunteer who gave his life fighting the russians as top u.s. officials pledge to give ukraine whatever they need for the fight. chief foreign correspondent ian pannell is on the scene in
7:10 am
ukraine. good morning, ian. >> reporter: good morning, george. w're in the town occupied by the russians until recently. now the ukrainians are in charge and gathering intelligence of allegations of torture and executions. this, as russia launches more attacks on innocent ukrainians around the country. overnight russian forces shelling the southern city of mykolaiv. this as emergency workers rescuing an 11-year-old from underneath the rubble where he was trapped for over six hours. this comes as the state department confirms another american citizen died while fighting for ukraine. dane patridge of idaho reportedly killed in the eastern donbas region, an iraqi war veteran leaving behind five children. >> he had a spiritual conviction that he couldn't deny and so he followed it and he went valiantly. >> reporter: overnight his sister jenny partridge paying tribute to her brother. speaking exclusively with abc news. >> the only thing that he communicated was that the
7:11 am
fighting conditions was more than what he had seen in iraq. >> reporter: on the ground russia relentlessly bombarding towns and cities hitting civilian infrastructure. russia accused of deliberately destroying everything in its path. for so many ukrainian towns and villages this is what liberation looks like. most of the population has fled and for the few people who are left behind this is all that's left of what they used to call home. the recent attacks putin's retaliation for a blast on a critical bridge linking russia to crimea. now the kremlin announcing the arrest of eight people in connection with the blast, including four russians. and during the meeting at nato chairman of the joint chiefs of staffs general mark milley reiterating u.s. commitment to ukraine while reporting russian war crimes. >> they have targeted the elderly, women and children of ukraine. indiscriminate and deliberate attacks on civilian targets is a
7:12 am
war crime in the international rules of war. >> reporter: meanwhile, in new york, the united nations voting overwhelmingly to condemn russia's attempted illegal annexation of parts of ukraine. over 140 nations voting in favor. there were some notable abstentions including china and india, but this was by far the strongest condemnation of russian actions here in ukraine. george? >> ian pannell, thanks. in our next half an exclusive interview with two americans captured while fighting for ukraine. michael? now to a new report on the death of a navy s.e.a.l. recruit just hours after he finished a grueling training known as hell week. chief global affairs correspondent martha raddatz is in washington, d.c. with what his family is saying now. good morning, martha. >> reporter: good morning, michael. this morning, kyle mullen's family says this report found exactly what they knew all along, that their son did not receive medical care after completing hell week and that performance-enhancing drugs did
7:13 am
not contribute to kyle's death. the 320-page report detailing kyle mullen's death at the end of navy s.e.a.l. hell week is excruciating to read, especially for his family. >> when you read it, it just hits home and it's upsetting. >> reporter: but the report makes one thing clear, kyle mullen died in the line of duty. there was no misconduct. >> this investigation shows that seaman mullen was not at fault and they found no performance-enhancing drugs in his system. he did nothing wrong. >> reporter: dying hours after successfully completing the course. s.e.a.l. recruits telling investigators that even the day before his death when he was being medically monitored and at times given oxygen, his breathing sounded like gurgling water and that his legs were so swollen when the course ended, he was sent back to barracks in a wheelchair. within hours fellow recruits say
7:14 am
he was barely coherent, gasping for air, was coughing up large amounts of brown fluid into a bottle, was so super swollen he looked like the michelin man and was at times completely disoriented. but there were no medical personnel at the barracks monitoring the recruit and by the time 911 responded, he could not be resuscitated. >> they had opportunities to save my son and he's dead because they didn't treat him. no mother should feel my pain that i have right now. my son is dead and never coming back. >> reporter: the only action taken so far, a navy medical doctor and two navy officers have been disciplined, although with nonpunitive letters. >> it's very, very clear here that kyle passed away because multiple people missed it several times. somebody really has to answer for this and pay for it. we're going to keep the pressure on.
7:15 am
we're going to keep on fighting for kyle and his family. >> reporter: a bigger, broader investigation into s.e.a.l. training is ongoing, but it is unclear when that will be finished. michael? >> definitely painful for the family, martha. martha, mullen's death raises the question of using performance-enhancing drugs among s.e.a.l. candidates. >> reporter: it does, michael. as we said, it concluded performance-enhancing drugs did not contribute to his death but were found in his car after his death. so the navy ordered an investigation and found about 40 s.e.a.l. candidates either tested positive or admitted to using steroids or other drugs. so now candidates are tested at every phase of s.e.a.l. selection and training, michael. >> martha raddatz, thank you so much. amy? we turn to the major storm on the move this morning. ginger is outside with the track and the timing of this potentially dangerous storm. good morning, ginger. >> reporter: you can feel it in the air. new england will see the brunt of it with the potential for flash flooding.
7:16 am
there was severe weather with the same front. so many people saw it from kentucky where you see the funnel cloud up to wisconsin where they had damage from likely tornadoes. they spun up quick on a qlcs, it's called. this linear system and in the southern part big hail up to egg-sized hail in mississippi and louisiana. tupelo there, the pictures we're sharing, so all on the front. and it has the capability of doing more damaging wind and things like that on the western, say, harrisburg up to albany. that piling of water in central massachusetts, rhode island, connecticut, new hampshire and maine. the next 24 to 36 hours is going to be critical. if you get a flash flood warning i'm promising you that is the time you do not want to drive. the roads will easily fill with this water. george? >> thanks, ginger. news from the cdc. they have approved the updated covid boosters for kids as young as 5 and trevor ault is at a drugstore here in new york. good morning, trevor. >> reporter: good morning,
7:17 am
george. this is good news for parents who want that extra layer of protection. i have my new friend gene here about to become one of the youngest and newest kids to get this omicron specific booster so the cdc director has now signed off on kids as young as 5 getting the pfizer booster shot, and he's already got it right here. you see how fast that goes. he got the moderna booster specifically tailored for the omicron variant. the ba.5 subvariant is still the most dominant. >> feeling okay? >> uh-huh. >> all good, no problems? >> reporter: it's as simple as that. it's important if you can to come out. kids who have had their two main doses of the covid shot can come out and get it. they're eligible if they got those two at least two months ago. so far only 31% of kids 5 to 11 have had two doses but it can add that extra layer of protection and simple process as we see. guys? >> trevor, thanks very much. a lot coming up on "gma" including our exclusive interview with two american veterans captured while fighting for ukraine, taken behind enemy lines.

7:33 am
did it give you pause that the state department, the president himself said, don't go? >> yeah, i definitely researched it. the u.s. government will not be backing me up on this and i was aware of that. i was 100% aware of it. it scared me. i still know i had to go. >> reporter: andy and alex were living in alabama but didn't know each other before meeting overseas. their first mission in the spring would be their last. >> how quickly did it go wrong? >> real quick. >> the fog of war is a real thing. >> what should have been a simple recon mission wasn't a simple recon mission. >> we did manage to evade the enemy trying to make our way back on foot for about eight hours working our way through thick woods. >> we have to worry about drones, land mines, trip wires. >> then you were captured. >> when we surrendered they stripped us of our equipment and put us on our knees and put bags on our heads and we were darn sure they would execute us. >> when those moments occurred what were you thinking about?

"the washington post" reports that a trump emplyee told agents about being directly ordered to move boxes of documents by the former president. the transfer was then caught on surveillance camera. want to go back to our chief washington correspondent jon karl. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, george. as the january 6th committee prepares for what is expected to be their final hearing today on capitol hill there is new reporting about those documents that donald trump took with him to mar-a-lago after he left the white house. one of donald trump's own employees at mar-a-lago has been cooperating with the justice department. according to a new report in "the washington post." "the post" reports the employee told federal investigators that
8:03 am
after donald trump received a subpoena for government documents back in may, the requested the documents be ly - moved. according to "the post," security camera footage from mar-a-lago obtained by the fbi corroborated the employee's description of events. "the post" reports the employee initially denied handling any sensitive documents but during a second interview presented with the new evidence, the witness reportedly changed their story dramatically describing moving the boxes at trump's request. abc news has not confirmed the reporting. the report raises questions of whether trump obstructed justice and whether he tried to hide documents that federal officials had asked to be returned, documents that he had taken from the white house after he left office. a spokesperson for the former president has reacted to this story, but not directly responded to it attacking the justice department for, quote, dangerous political

8:05 am
we also know that vaccination rates among younger children are still pretty low. kids 5 to 11 only about 31% have had their two doses too but for those 31% this is definitely a layer can definitely help them - against covid-19 and those boosters are available now. amy? >> all right, trevor, thanks for that. now to a shortage of a widely prescribed drug used to treat adhd. demand is far outweighing supply for adderall because one of the companies that makes it is reporting intermittent manufacturing delays. the drug also used to treat narcolepsy. the fda says there are alternate therapies and should check with your doctor to determine the best option for you. george. coming up in our "gma morning menu," more and more are turning to buy now pay later for holiday shopping and rebecca jarvis has the pros and cons. also this morning, our series "thriving in pink." we'll meet two women who received a diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer but the new treatments are giving so

8:12 am
as the name suggests you buy an item today and then you pay for it over time in installments often without interest and they've exploded in popularity. a lot of shoppers plan on using them this holiday season. and the reason that they've exploded is during the pandemic so many people started shopping online. a lot of retailers added this as an option on their websites at checkout and on their apps as well. >> how does the buy now, pay later option work? >> reporter: so, it works with people getting to buy it today. you get the item today and pay for it over time. there are some real considerations for people -- may look attractive to people who don't necessarily have access to credit who don't want to take on new credit card debt, but it's important to remember that there are risks involved here. you take on too many of these, it can ding your credit score. if you're not making payments on time, it ends up costing you fees. there are studies that suggest that easy access to credit can encourage people to spend and
8:13 am
overspend money. so you have to think about this with a responsible approach. make sure if you're taking one of these on, that you have the money, george, to pay for it over time and you're not going to be sitting on a bunch of issues that are going to cost you your financial freedom in the long run, george. >> rebecca jarvis, thanks. amy? well, now to thriving in pink. it is metastatic breast cancer awareness day. according to the american cancer society around 164,000 women in the united states are living with metastatic breast cancer right now and the prognosis can be stark. the relative survive am rate for five years is less than a third and now some women are sharing their story in hopes of helping others. kansas city native amanda quick was 29 and living her dream life in new york city when in the spring of 2021 she found something. >> i felt under my left armpit just a swollen lymph node, lump. >> reporter: she says she dismissed it until a few months later when it had grown larger and harder. >> had me get a sonogram, a mammogram, a biopsy. >> reporter: the diagnosis,

8:15 am
it was in my lymph nodes and in my liver. >> reporter: she started chemotherapy and the medication sent her into early menopause. >> i had no inclination this was even possible to have stage 4 breast cancer at such a young age. >> reporter: stage 4 cancer is usually considered incurable. treatment is typically focused on preventing the spread of cancer cells, treating symptoms and improving quality of life. >> it's not just about survival and numbers and months and years which are, of course, incredibly important but also thinking about how we are living our days. >> reporter: new research is vital to moving the needle on outcomes for patients. >> about 55% of patients with metastatic breast cancer have a relatively new type of classification called her2-low metastatic breast cancer and there's a new treatment called t-dxd or enhertu improving the survival of these women. >> reporter: results from the trial show the targeted treatment slowed the spread of

8:44 am
just sit in your wrongness and be wrong. i think "then there were none" which went through several title iterations, but it's a great mystery. >> another agatha christie. >> yeah, it's amazing. when you don't like anybody but it's still a page turner. >> and i love anything by harlan coben. >> i do too. >> he is a master of, you get to the last paragraph of a chapter and you just cannot help but turn to the next page. >> yeah, yeah. >> so we'll have a little test and put you guys -- >> i heard about this. >> don't you remember your old days on "gma"? >> a quiz for charlie and he can't remember what he had for breakfast. you'll -- >> it's called spot the plot. i'll give you one line description of a famous mystery novel. you have to guess what it is. ready? >> as ready as we'll ever be. >> a train ride goes sour when someone gets murdered. >> "murder on the orient express." >> up next a woman goes missing and writes an intriguing diary but not everything is as it seems. >> "gone girl." >> you got it.
