was a premeditated, preplanned, targeted attack. >> reporter: the gun appears to have a silencer and jammed when the shooter cleared it police say he fired again. >> from watching the video, it does seem he's proficient in the use of firearms. he was able to clear the malfunctions pretty quickly. >> all units be advised in regards to a confirmed male shot in the confines of midtown north. >> reporter: police say it was around 6:45 a.m. when the suspect, pictured at starbucks before the shooting, gunned down thompson as he was walking alone into the hilton for an investors conference. in a video overnight the shooter seen here about 20 minute before the shooting. >> looking for a male 5' 10" in height, cream colored jacket, black mask, black gloves. >> reporter: this eyewitness snapping a picture of the suspect as he fled. >> i was shocked. i feared that he could shoot me, too. >> reporter: by the time police arrived the suspect hopped a bicycle to get away. detectives now working to determine whether he had prepositioned that bike close by.

>> george: we're going to get the latest on the fast moving winter storm bringing whiteout conditions, more snow to areas already hit hard. trevor ault is in watertown, new york. good morning, trevor. >> reporter: hey, good morning, george. we still have millions of people under wind and snow alerts across 18 different states. where we are, we're once again under a winter storm warning. we have all this left behind from the first weather system. some areas are expecting another foot or two as this moves in. what makes the second system particularly dangerous are all these strong gusts of wind. up to 50 miles an hour in some spots. we've been watching the near whiteout conditions essentially across the plain, midwest. we've seen a few other deadly scenes on the road. this morning i-90 south of buffalo, we are seeing a traffic incident. we know people need to be careful especially since this system moves in in western new york, northern new york, where we are. the evening commute could be treacherous.

we want to remind people there are dangers to this weather, even if you're not on the roads. officials in buffalo say two people died from heart attacks while shoveling or snow blowing their snow. >> rebecca: such an important warning there, trevor. okay. thank you. ginger, of course, is here with the track and the timing of the storm and where americans are bracing for single digit temperatures. good morning, ginger. >> ginger: this is a powerful storm. i know you saw thunder snow. we saw that throughout west michigan. pictures coming in, with snow. it can act like a thunderstorm where you get lightning and thunder. that means you've got a really powerful one coming. that was west michigan. you saw wind gusts 50 or so this afternoon. and then single digits and

subzero in the northern plains. >> george: you delivered that with such a smile.

principal at the school to discuss enrolling a student. several minutes later, screams and shots were heard. the small christian school, about an hour north of sacramento, put on lockdown, the children taken to a nearby church to reunite with their families. >> tears, pandemonium. it's collective, collective trauma. >> reporter: the fbi and local police are now investigating the motive behind the shooting, including a belief that the suspect targeted this school due to its affiliation to the seventh day adventist church. robin? >> robin: thanks to you. now the battle over donald trump's defense secretary nominee who is vowing to fight for the job and is addressing concerns about his alleged misconduct. our chief white house correspondent mary bruce is in washington with more. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, robin. pete hegseth is defiant and digging in, saying he is going to keep fighting, even as we know donald trump is keeping his options open.

this morning donald trump's embattled pick for secretary of defense, former fox news host pete hegseth says he's not going anywhere. >> so you're in this all the way? >> why would i back down? i've always been a fighter. >> reporter: while sources tell us trump is considering other options, hegseth is doing a full court press, media interviews and on capitol hill, defending himself against allegations of sexual misconduct, alcohol abuse and financial mismanagement, allegations he now calls the art of the smear. >> am i a perfect man? no. was i a perfect man? absolutely not. >> reporter: hegseth denies a rape accusation, claiming he paid a settlement to a woman who accused him of sexual assault to protect his job and marriage. he insists he doesn't have a problem with alcohol, even promising not to drink a drop if he gets the position. >> he offered up to me, and i know to other senator, that he's not drinking.

that's something he's not going to do if confirmed here. >> reporter: but first he needs to convince a growing number of skeptical republicans like senator ernst, who could be up for the job if trump moves on. hegseth, who said women should not fight in combat, meeting with the iowa republican wednesday, the first female combat veteran to serve in the senate and survivor of sexual assault. >> we had an engaging conversation. >> it was a very thorough conversation. >> reporter: while sources tell us she's on trump's list of possible replacements, she wouldn't engage when asked if if interested. >> mr. hegseth is the nominee. >> did he alleviate your concerns, senator? >> reporter: also on the list tennessee senator bill haggerty and trump's one time primary rival, governor ron desantis. sources saying he's made it clear to trump he's interested in the role. this morning trump's most fervent supporters saying they'll follow his lead, even if it's not clear who he will ultimately choose.

all this as abc news is learning president biden is considering preemive pardons who officials believe the white house may be targeted under the trump administration. hegseth can only afford to lose the support of three republican senators and still get the job. he is expected back on the hill, hoping he can sway enough of them to get over the finish line. george? >> george: thanks. we're going to stay in washington to the supreme court where justices heard oral arguments about a politically charged tennessee law that bans medical innovation for transgender minors. senior national correspondent terry moran is in washington with the story. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, george. this is one of the most divisive issues in the country, played a big role in the presidential election. in court this puts a state's power to regulate medical treatment in the name of protecting the health and safety of minor children against the constitutional right to trans kids and their families. this morning the conservative majority on the supreme court appears poised to uphold a ban on gender affirming care for

transgender youth. three families and a doctor supported by the biden administration are challenging a tennessee law that bans procedures like hormone therapy and puberty blockers for minors. several members of the court's conservative majority seemed inclined to leave the decision up to the states. >> the constitution leaves that question to the people's representatives rather than to nine people, none of whom is a doctor. >> reporter: medical treatments for transgender children have been safely used for decades and endorsed by major american medical associations. but since 2021, 26 states have passed laws restricting or banning gender affirming care and some public health authorities in europe are raising questions, too. >> england's pulling back and sweden's pulling back. it strikes me as, you know, pretty heavy yellow light, if not red light, for this court to come in. >> reporter: but the aclu's lawyer, the first trans person

to appear before the court, argue these treatments are life saving for many children. justice sotomayor focusing on that with a stark exchange with a lawyer for the biden administration. >> evidence is very clear that there are some children who need this treatment, isn't there? >> yes, i think the evidence is uniform on that. >> some attempt suicide? >> yes. >> reporter: the justices could up hold tennessee's ban or send the case back down to the lower courts to take a closer look at the constitutional issues. a decision is expected by june. rebecca? >> rebecca: all right. terry, thank you. we turn now to the heated capitol hill hearing. airline executives were grilled by senators over sky rocketing fees that make your plane ticket more expensive. elizabeth schulze has the details. the senators were fired up about this, but what does it mean for flyers? >> reporter: they were fired up. senators are demanding airlines crack down on so called junk fees.

passengers paid $7 billion in luggage fees just last year. airlines are likely to lower the costs voluntarily and congress is far from passing any law that would change their business model. this morning airline executives are under pressure after a turbulent hearing on capitol hill over the fees that make your air fare more expensive. >> nobody enjoys flying the airlines. it's a disaster. you charge people fees they know nothing about. you harass them to death. >> reporter: a senate subcommittee grilling executives over fees charged for early boarding, better seats and other conveniences, voicing many travellers' frustrations. >> they feel, with more than understandable justification, that they are piggy banks to be shaken down by these sky rocketing fees that seem to have no connection to any cost that the airlines incur. >> reporter: senators claim there's a lack of transparency, saying vague pricing makes it

hard for customers to budget. >> we're all captive on your airplanes at a certain point. and you just say, you want to pick a seat, we're just gonna charge you some random amount more. >> reporter: executives rebutting those claims. >> optional services are no so called junk fees. as optional services are not required to travel. >> it has never been more affordable to fly. over time air fares have gone down. >> reporter: senators also say some budget airlines have run a bouncing program, paying employees extra to stop customers. if their bags fail to meet certain requirements. >> your airlines are paying millions of dollars to your employees to harass people, who have already paid! they're there in line because they've already paid. it's unbelievable. >> reporter: now there are already some changes. a new government regulation took effect in october that requires airlines to refund you within seven business days if your domestic flight is

delayed more than three hours and you choose not to fly, rebecca. >> rebecca: that is automatic. there are some other rules in the works. >> transportation department is proposing a new rule today that would require airlines pay $200 in cash refunds if your trip is severely disrupted and it's the airlines' fault. most do provide airlines. big focus on transparency. >> rebecca: looking for that transparency, elizabeth. thank you. >> george: coming up the president of mcdonald's usa is here with how the fast food chain is responding to the e.coli outbreak and the popular menu item that's making a come back. >> rebecca: prince harry commenting on his marriage and security. >> robin: one of liam payne's friends, who he says is to blame for his fatal fall. first back to ginger. >> ginger: notice i delivered that cold weather news with a smile. it was actually frozen. see?

i do want to start by saying, we let people down. i want to apologize to all of our customers who were harmed by this incident. >> george: what happened? >> what happened is, we had onions served on quarter pounders in about 900 restaurants in colorado and surrounding states that were the potential source of the e.coli. as a result of that we took swift action to remove those onions. we stopped using the supplier from where they came. we stopped sourcing onions from the farm. cdc and fda announcement this week gave us the all clear. the investigation is over. this incident is over. the work's not done at mcdonald's. food safety is still our top priority. >> george: what do you have to do? >> we need to continue to rebuild trust with consumers. like i said, we let people down. we have work to do that. it will be on going. food safety at mcdonald's is everybody's business. we make it our priority in our headquarters. it's a priority in our 13,500

into the death of one direction singer liam payne. a friend who could still be charged in connection with the tragedy says the hotel where payne die bears responsibility, not him. erielle reshef is here with more. good morning, erielle. >> reporter: good morning. liam payne's friend roger norez could face charges for allegedly abandoning him. but in a legal complaint, norez argues it was the hotel's staff failure to act when the star was clearly in distress that contributed to his death. this morning the last friend to see former one direction star liam payne alive blaming the hotel in argentina for his tragic death. in a new legal filing roger norez, who was with payne in the hours before his fatal fall from a third floor balcony accusing the hotel of failing to provide adequate medical care, claiming they knew payne was in crisis and heavily intoxicated for three days and should have acted arguing they did not even make an effort to make up for their

legal omission of having a 24 hour doctor. >> he's also alleging the hotel manager was the last persons who were actually with him before he passed. so if they were aware he was not in a condition to be left alone, there may be some liability on the side of the hotel. >> reporter: the move comes as authorities in argentina weigh possible charges against norez himself for abandonment. before payne died in october, hotel staff, seen in images from a surveillance camera obtained by tmz carrying payne, whose case is blurred through the lobby of his hotel bringing him into his hotel room. according to tmz the images also show payne surrounded by workers in the hallway near his room before he went inside for the last time. photos of the singer's hotel room taken after his death show a smashed tv and drugs scattered throughout. an autopsy revealing he had a mixture of the party drug pink cocaine, alcohol and

prescription anti-depressants in his system. >> such as with matthew perry. when individuals are enabling or are aware that someone is heavily intoxicated or under the influence of drugs and they are aware and didn't do anything to stop it they are being held responsible. >> reporter: three people now facing charges related to the death of the former one direction singer. ♪ the story of my life ♪ >> reporter: the beloved 31-year-old singer's sudden passing sending shock waves all over the world, his band mates reeling. reports suggesting one direction was in talks to do a final reunion show before he passed. just a tragedy. norez claims it was not him, but the hotel manager who left payne alone in his hotel room. a judge will evaluate the claims. we did reach out to the hotel and family for comments but have not heard back. it will be very interesting to see who the judge feels is accountable. >> george: it will be a serious issue. >> robin: thank you very much, erielle. appreciate it. coming up later we have the new ceo of starbucks telling rebecca about the changes coming to the coffee giant in his first morning show interview.

but how can parents help their kids? >> reporter: some other countries with help from parents have also changed their curriculums to try to make math more fun, less focused on formulas, more focused on creativity and problem solving. of course, if you think your child is struggling, talk to their teachers about what resources might be available. after school programs or extra coursework online that you could do with them. rebecca? >> rebecca: thanks, elizabeth. i feel so lucky for my great math teachers along the way. they really made such a difference in my life. >> robin: they really did. same here. same here, rebecca. it's the end of an era though for at&t. announcing it is shutting down its copper wire land line network in 2029. the company said the 70-year-old network is unreliable and wastes energy. but land lines are not going away. holdouts can still use their old phone on an updated system. i am a holdout. i still have land lines. >> george: come on. >> robin: absolutely. >> george: i don't think i've had a land line for years.

>> reporter: brian niccol is working to return starbucks to its former glory and reinvague rate the 553-year-old brand following slumping sales and customer complaints, like these on social media, from the cost of a drink. >> starbucks and their pricing, baffling, mind blowing, ridonkulous. >> rebecca: to wait times. he took over in september, turning over every detail and quickly addressing a big customer pet peeve. upcharges for alternative milk like almond and oat. what are the other major changes customers can expect? >> you'll see us do simple things. bringing back the sharpies. bringing back the coffee condiment bar. you'll see us continue to push towards, how do we make it easier to get your coffee and simplify the execution for our baristas. >> rebecca: it's not just bringing back the basics. the former chipotle ceo said he's working to improve in store ordering with the goal of getting your drink made in less than four minutes.

he's also working on the app and mobile ordering. the thing i hear a lot is that customers love the options of starbucks. they like being able to order through the app or come in. but it takes awhile. how do you make that go faster? >> so, we're right now investing in, how do we build technology so when a mobile order comes in, we give you a time your drink will be ready. today we can just give you an estimate, it will be ready in 3-5 minutes. in the future, we will say, rebecca, your drink will be ready in nine instead of sitting there waiting for people to come. >> rebecca: and eyeing a smaller menu, eliminating less popular items to get your coffee faster. what kinds of things are going to have to go? >> we got a lot of offerings that there's one or two ordered a day. the way i talk about it is, we're going to do fewer things but fewer things better.

>> reporter: but for now, these changes won't come at a higher cost. you have chipotle, your former company, hiking prices 2% higher. is starbucks going to hike prices or is inflation, as far as starbucks concerned, done? >> we're going to it this pause button on pricing for this fiscal year. i still think there's an opportunity for us to simplify the pricing architecture. i don't love the fact that in our app right now, while you're doing the customization, it doesn't inform you what's happened to the price. i want to get more transparent with the pricing. >> rebecca: and he promises none of the innovation will come with a decline in quality. five years from now if i walk into a starbucks, how different is it going to look from today? >> i think what you're going to see is a very ordinarily mobile order business with its own dedicated pickup area. when you walk in, my hope is we can get you a brewed cup of coffee in less than 30 seconds. >> rebecca: you like that?

sounds pretty good. he also said he really wants to work on making the chairs at every single starbucks really comfortable so you want to sit there. i said, what about the people doing work from home in the cafe? how do you feel about them hanging out? he's good with it. he doesn't mind it. he would rather have people there enjoying themselves. >> robin: good. >> rebecca: spending time than not. >> robin: good. >> george: thank you, rebecca. that was interesting. ginger? >> ginger: thank you so much. let's look at the blizzard conditions. i know lot of people will say, it's a blizzard out there. it's not really. there's an actual definition and threshold. 35 mile per hour plus winds three hours or more less than quarter mile visibility. blizzard warnings are on. all the way down into west virginia. wind advisories from massachusetts to north carolina. look at those gusts. close to 50 mile per hour by noon today. it is going to be rough out there. the wind chill and cold weather advisory down to mississippi tomorrow. let's get a check closer to home.

>> robin: you are about tomorrow not yesterday. but was it difficult, though, to relive some of those times? >> a bit. i hadn't seen a lot of that footage. but what it did, it confirmed in myself that those were great songs. i played well. we had a great band. the records were amazing. i tend to forget that because i don't listen to the past, my past anyway. the lingering thing was how did we do that much work in that amount of time? there was touring, interviews, but there was no internet. there was no mobile phones. there was no paparazzi. we didn't have distractions. artists today have so many different distractions. it's a different ball game. i am so grateful that i grew up in that era. >> will: robin's interview with elton will air next wednesday. i feel like elton john with my stick mic.
