7:04 am
president and house speaker are set to meet here this afternoon, hoping they can jump start negotiations and finally strike a deal. arriving back at the white house overnight, president biden sounding optimistic. talks took a turn over the weekend but this morning negotiations to raise the debt limit and avoid a catastrophic default are back on. house speaker kevin mccarthy telling reporters his sunday phone call with the president was productive. >> i think we can solve some of these problems if he understands me. look, there's no agreement. we're still apart. >> reporter: house republicans are demanding deep spending cuts in exchange for raising the debt limit to pay off the nation's bills. >> the speaker has been very clear. a red line is spending less money. unless and until we're there, the rest is irrelevant. >> reporter: at issue, how much and where to restrict federal spending? republicans proposed cuts would gut biden's agenda. the president has agreed to some
7:05 am
reductions in spending but is also calling for tax increases for the wealthiest americans and corporations. >> it's time for republicans to accept that there's no bipartisan deal to be made solely, solely on their partisan terms. >> reporter: treasury secretary janet yellen stressing there's no time to waste, warning the government could run out of cash to pay its bills on june 1st. >> i think that's a hard deadline. >> reporter: if the u.s. defaults, it could spark a global recession. markets will tumble. the u.s. government will be forced to halt social security and medicare payments, troops will go unpaid and millions could lose their job. now, some progressive democrats are urging the president to invoke the 14th amendment to go around congress to pay off the nation's debt. president biden says he does think he has that authority but argues that it wouldn't solve this problem in time but a it would likely be challenged and wouldn't be resolved by that june 1st deadline. bottom line here, george, they
7:06 am
need to reach a deal and fast. >> mary bruce, thanks. let's go to rachel scott on capitol hill. >> reporter: george, good morning. for republican, they say this is is all about the numbers. they will not agree to raise the debt limit until the president agrees to spending cuts. for months president biden insists this needs to be done without conditions. now democrats concede that likely will not happen. sources say that the white house put an offer on the table that would have limited military and some domestic spending including education, housing and scientific research. republicans rejected that. the president wants to put tack tax revenues on the table for discussion. republicans call that a nonstarter. and said house speaker kevin mccarthy is pushing for even deeper spending cuts including clawing back unspent covid fund, imposing strict work requirements on some federal programs like food stamps and also increasing military spending. the margins are so close and time is running out. leaders on both sides agree a potential deal would need the support of democrats and
7:07 am
republicans, but that is proving to be an uphill challenge, robin. >> it is. thank you. as you know, the situation in washington being felt all the way to wall street. elizabeth schulze is there with the latest as the markets get ready to open. good morning, elizabeth. >> good morning, robin. wall street is in wait and see mode now. traders tell me they are bracing for volatility but holding out hope for a deal. just as we get close to that june 1st deadline, there are risks to the economy and to your wallet. 66 million americans rely on social security checks. many of those come at the start of the month. if the u.s. default, they could be delayed. if you work for the government, you could go unpaid. here's what happened in 2011 during a debt ceiling impasse. consumer and business confidence plunged, mortgage rates spiked and the s&p 500 tumbled 17%. ultimately that wipes out $2.4 trillion from americans 401k's and mutual funds.
7:08 am
even after that standoff ended, the u.s. credit rating was downgraded because of dysfunction in washington. some investors fear that is a risk again this time. michael? >> all right. thank you very much, elizabeth. we're going to go overseas to the war in ukraine. president biden met with ukrainian president zelenskyy at the g-7 summit and promised more aid. this comes as zelenskyy denies moscow's claim that a key city has fallen. tom soufi burridge is on the scene. good morning, tom. >> reporter: good morning, michael. we're getting reports that ukraine is striking russian military assets north of here over the border inside russia. just to the east of where we are, front lines are shifting as the war here enters a critical phase. this morning front line shifting in eastern ukraine. russian advancing in bakhmut, its troops raising its flag on a roof top, claiming full control of that city. ukraine denying that, saying its
7:09 am
forces fight on in one district and are advancing in areas nearby. now trying to break through russian lines to the north and south of bakhmut. ukraine claiming this video shows a ukraiian assault brigade storming russian positions. our team showed the remnants of that operation. these american supplied armored personnel carriers were used in that ukrainian assault near bakhmut. that one suffered minor damage. check out this one. this was hit by an anti-tank missile. miraculously, the two crew inside survived. abc news taken inside this top secret command center in eastern ukraine. ukrainian soldiers monitoring live drone feeds down onto the battlefield. these drones have a view inside in real time of an active ukrainian counter offensive. here we watched two ukrainian soldiers with their guns raised,

7:12 am
>> reporter: whelan's sister elizabeth expressing that same sentiment to george last month. >> paul has been left behind twice. that's just a fact. it's really important that we stress that that cannot happen again. paul whelan must be part of any deal that happens in the future. >> reporter: still, whelan remains hopeful, appearing satisfied that the biden administration and others continue working on his behalf. >> i think there are people in d.c. that feel the same way and they're moving towards a compromise and resolution to this as quickly as they can. >> reporter: whelan said his optimism comes from public messages including president biden's speech at the white house correspondents dinner last month where the president promised he would not stop fighting for whelan and the others wrongfully detained until they are home. george?
7:13 am

7:14 am
>> reporter: he's one of the most conservative members on the senate, opposed to abortion rights and pushing tax cuts to fight poverty. he also developed good relationships with some democrats, leading a lengthy but failed effort to pass bipartisan police reform after the murder of george floyd. scott has said that america is not a racist nation but in 2016 he acknowledged being single out for being black even as a senator. >> in the course of one year i have been stopped seven times by law enforcement officers. not four. not five. not six. but seven times. in one year. as an elected official. was i speeding sometimes? sure. but the vast majority of the time i was pulled over for nothing more than driving a new car in the wrong neighborhood or some other reason just as trivial.
7:15 am
>> reporter: for the most part, scott was a strong supporter of president trump's agenda, but voted against the effort to overturn the 2020 election and criticized trump's response to the deadly and racist unite the right rally in charlottesville in 2017. he joins a growing field of candidates that includes trump, of course, and also former south carolina governor nikki haley who appointed him to the senate in the first place to fill a vacancy in 2013. florida governor ron desantis plans to announce his campaign on wednesday. tim scott starts out as a long shot, but he has already raised a significant amount of money. $22 million transferred from his senate campaign. he plans to run some $6 million worth of television ads in just iowa and new hampshire between now and the first republican debate in august. george? >> looking like this will be a sizable field. michael? now to a fairy-tale ending at the pga championship. one of golf's biggest

this morning negotiations to raise the debt limit and prevent a catastrophic default are now back on. the president and house speaker kevin mccarthy will be meeting face to face at the white house later this afternoon, hoping they can finally jump start these talks and reach a deal. they now have just ten days to sort this out. while both sides are expressing fresh optimism, they are still far apart. republicans are still demanding steep spending cuts that would gut the president's agenda in exchange for raising the debt limit. the president has agreed to some cuts but the sticking point remains how much and where to cut. what is clear is they have no time to waste. that june 1st deadline is coming. that is when the u.s. government will run out of money to pay its bills, risking a global recession, potentially leading to the loss of millions of jobs, michael. >> all right. thank you very much, mary. the situation in washington, it is resonating with the markets. elizabeth schulze joins us from wall street with the latest. good morning, elizabeth. >> good morning, michael.

watt street is holding out hope for a last minute deal to raise the debt limit, but there are risks to the economy and your wallet the closer we get to that june 1st deadline. 66 million americans rely on social security checks. if the u.s. defaults those checks could be delayed. if you work for the government, you could go unpaid. if the u.s. can't pay its bills for just one week, it's estimated up to 1.5 million jobs would be lost, with construction, manufacturing and retail jobs hardest hit. the reason those jobs would be cut is borrowing costs would spike. businesses and consumers would get more cautious about the economy, pulling back on their hiring and spending ultimately if there is a recession, up to 8 million jobs will be lost. traders tell me they are bracing for volatility this week but they say it is important to remember that if there are swings in the market, keep a long term perspective on your investments and your 401k or mutual fund. robin? >> good advice as always, elizabeth. now to brittany griner. she got a huge ovation in

8:26 am
[ laughter ] >> just like siblings there. every five days a child dies in the u.s. from choking. like was the case for charlie, someone choking won't be able to cough, speak or breathe so they should signal by putting their hands over their throat, just like charlie did. he knew what to do, and so did amelia. >> thank you so much for that. julia louis dreyfus is here live on gma. she's over there! she's over there!

something very important in your 20s. how should i think about dating in my 20s? >> think about it the same way we were just talking about finding a job. you may or may not have nine different relationships by the time you're 35, but you'll probably have more than one. use each one as a learning opportunity. that's what dating is supposed to be about, just figure out what you like, what you don't like, what works, what doesn't work, what you need. don't be afraid to change course if you're in a relationship that the gut check tells you just isn't right. >> trust your gut. >> that's right. >> that's how it always works. dr. meg jay, thank you very much for that advice. gonna help a lot of twenty somethings out there and 50 somethings like myself. thanks so much. ginger, over to you. >> i wish i would have heard that 20 years ago. especially on relationships. anyway, how about -- oh. halfway married. i did do a lot of practice. the author of the new york times best seller "the silent patient" has written an exciting new thriller.
