chairman of the joint chiefs of staff alongside several other senior leaders. brown a four-star fighter pilot has come under fire as trump aims to rid military of leaders who support diversity, equity, and inclusion efforts. as brown and others fired had done. trump nominating as his replacement, dan caine, a retired three-star air force general who has never served in a four-star position. senator jack reed, the top democrat on the armed services committee, slamming the move as part of a premeditated campaign by president trump and secretary hegseth to purge talented officers for politically charged reasons which would undermine the professionalism of our military and send a chilling message through the ranks. so guys, it's been a stressful time to be a federal worker to say the least, and these mass firings are just beginning. starting next week the pentagon is expected to lay off 5,400 civilian employees, and that is just the first wave of firings in what could total tens of
7:08 am
thousands of layoffs. rachel? >> rachel: yeah. the white house has not said how long these firings will last or just how many people are going to be impacted. selina wang tracking it all for us. thank you. we turn now to the tense negotiations between the u.s. and ukraine amid president trump's push to end the war. trump pressuring ukraine to sign a controversial resources deal. abc's patrick reevell joins us now from kyiv with the latest. patrick, you are tracking several developing headlines. drone strikes overnight ahead of the war's anniversary, and president zelenskyy's counteroffer to trump. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, rachel. russia overnight launched its largest drone attack of the war involving nearly 270 drones, and now here in kyiv, we could see and hear anti-aircraft guns firing. trace of fire going up, and search lights lighting up the sky. tomorrow marks three years since russia's full-scale invasion and president zelenskyy is facing huge pressure from president trump. trump demanding this deal that
7:09 am
would pay eventually the u.s. $500 billion paid for by giving america 50% of revenues from ukraine's resources including minerals, oil, and gas. but zelenskyy so far refusing to sign because it offers no security guarantees and because trump is asking for five times more than the u.s. has given ukraine. now a senior ukrainian official has said zelenskyy will never sign a deal that, quote, robs the country with zero guarantees. the u.s. is also pressing today ukraine to accept a new u.n. resolution that no longer condemns russia for the invasion. zelenskyy himself is due to speak in a few hours, and russian officials are openly celebrating the sudden shifts, and here in ukraine, there is anger and worry that president trump is increasingly aligned more with vladimir putin than with them. whit? >> whit: patrick reevell for us. thank you. let's bring in abc news chief global affairs correspondent martha raddatz who will be hosting "this week" later this morning. martha, good morning. always great to see you.
7:10 am
let's start there with these negotiations between ukraine and the u.s. we're seeing a massive shift in u.s. policy, but are the sides actually inching closer to a potential peace deal? >> martha: we really have no idea about that, whit. what we do know is just what you said. there is a massive change. might they inch closer? perhaps those rare earth minerals will take it over the top, but that's not really a peace deal, and that's what president trump is pushing and pushing hard, but he is putting all the pressure on volodymyr zelenskyy, and very, very little on russia as patrick said there. the russians are celebrating, and they are still bombing ukraine constantly. so volodymyr zelenskyy is in a terrible position. he's got the president of the united states making fun of him, belittling him, calling him names, and really putting pressure on him and having meetings -- the first meetings without ukraine present, and russians president.
7:11 am
of course, ukraine would be part of any deal, but he has really pushed president zelenskyy aside, and he also has domestic pressure, whit. his poll numbers are not terrific at this point. three years tomorrow people are tired of war. they want a ceasefire peace deal as well, but pressure right now, all pressure is really on ukraine, and we haven't really seen many signs of volodymyr zelenskyy budging, whit. >> whit: and martha, all of this happening as that purge took place at the pentagon. the chairman of the joint chiefs and other top officials fired. how big of a shakeup is this for military leadership? >> martha: i really can't say how huge this is as a deal for the pentagon. it has people rattled in the pentagon. the pentagon, the military is supposed to be the least political organization in this city, and to have those men and women just fired, summarily
7:12 am
fired, and dei as the likely cause of that has really rattled people. cq brown was serving a four-year term. this has really never happened before, that a new president comes in and fires his senior military adviser, but whit, we also know that president trump hadn't even spoken to cq brown since becoming president. he saw him at the army/navy game, but not in any official capacity had he spoken to cq brown about anything. again, his senior military adviser. >> whit: and trump suggesting this is just the beginning. all right, martha raddatz as always, we appreciate it. thank you. tune into "this week" later on this morning. martha talks with senate democrat jack reed and house republican mike lawler about the trump administration's push on ukraine and the unprecedented cuts to the federal workforce. gio? >> gio: okay, whit, now to the breaking news overnight and the urgent investigation. one officer killed and five people wounded in a hostage situation and shootout at a pennsylvania hospital.

7:15 am
taking a shocking turn. reports that a member of the new york jets was followed home to new jersey and then robbed at gunpoint. abc's faith abubey joins us with the details. good morning, faith. >> reporter: good morning to you, rachel. police say they received several 911 calls shortly after the robbery. victims didn't report any injuries. the initial investigation so far has shown that the jets player and the person he was with were specifically targeted. this morning, a new probe in the alarming string of robberies targeting high-profile athletes across the country. the latest victim according to espn, a player for the new york jets reportedly robbed at gunpoint near his home in new jersey. police in morristown say the suspects followed the unidentified player for 30 miles from manhattan and got away with money and other personal belongings. investigators believe it was an isolated incident, but it comes on the heels of a nationwide crime spree targeting athletes.

7:18 am
spent 41 days on the market. that's the longest period since january of 2020. inventory is another issue. there's not a lot out there. plus, mortgage rates remain closer to 7% than 6% and haven't changed much over the last few months. that puts home prices at an all-time high for january. some things to keep in mind though, january is certainly not spring when it comes to trying to sell a home. it's usually slow and even though they are down, home sales have still increased year to year for the fourth month in a row. >> gio: and phil, what's happening with the stock market right now? because it just had its worst day so far this year. >> reporter: yeah, it did, gio. friday was not a good day on wall street. the dow dropped more than 700 points. you combine that with thursday, and it's a 1,200-point drop. nasdaq and s&p 500 also down. investors are worried about a slowing economy, and inflation. also consumers are uncertain about the president's planned tariffs to increase every --

i would never point a gun at anyone and pull a trigger at them. >> reporter: in july, a judge dismissing the charges, stating it was highly prejudicial. >> your moment to dismiss with prejudice is granted. >> reporter: an emotional alec baldwin breaking down. his wife, hilaria, by his side. since then, the two welcoming cameras in as they publicly navigate the lingering grief and aftermath of the tragedy. >> i do think that the end of the trial and now this show closed the book on it for him. i think he will now move onto the next act of his career. >> reporter: and baldwin and his wife say the show gives viewers a glimpse into their lives, the good, the bad, the wild, and everything in between. but they're hoping people connect with their story. it does premiere today on tlc. >> gio: it's really something. >> whit: quite the journey. thank you. appreciate it. let's go back to brittany bell for another check of the weather. good morning. >> brittany: there's warmer weather on the way this week. let's start with kansas city, and so yes. there is still snow on the

>> rachel: and welcome back to "gma." we are taking a closer look this morning as the illnesses going around this season. so acute respiratory illness is listed as high or very high in nearly half the country according to the cdc. meanwhile, the outbreak of measles that is growing rapidly in texas, and so joining us more now on how to stay healthy of course, is abc news medical correspondent dr. darien. all right. so dr. darien, it is still flu season. >> dr. darien: yes. >> rachel: and we're learning that flu deaths actually surpassing covid-19 deaths for the first time since the pandemic started? >> dr. darien: for the first time since the pandemic started and the numbers are exceptionally high. we're talking about some of the highest numbers we've seen in 15 years. and as i was saying during the break, if you'd come to
7:42 am
emergency room with me, you'd very much see it. many of my patients suffering from the symptoms of flu a, and test positivity is also high. 25% of tests returning back positive this year compared to 18% last year, and that contributes to that 33 million illnesses and close to a half a million hospitalizations. >> whit: i'm remembering my grandpa telling me, you're going to catch a cold if you go outside when it's freezing out, right? we've seen these, like, fluctuations in temperatures, of the cold and now the warmup, but does the weather really play any difference in making people sick? >> dr. darien: i think that's a great question, and my answer is yes, but not all of what we think is to be true. our grandparents are right. when you go out in the cold, that does suppress your immune system, can make you more susceptible to infections, but when it gets cold, we all move inside and we all share germs and that increases our risk of exposure. the good news is we're seeing signs of a relative peak which we can remain hopeful for, but we have to remain cautious. the flu season extends until early spring so you have to protect yourself. >> gio: you still have to protect yourself. let's talk about the measles in west texas. we see that outbreak.
7:43 am
cases are spreading. what are the symptoms here? when do you actually see them? >> dr. darien: measles is doing what it does best, spreading. it's the most contagious infection that exists. just for context, one infected person can infect up to 18 other people who do not have immune protection. vaccine rates are reasons why we should pay attention. they're steadily declining and we have pockets of communities that are undervaccinated. gaines county in texas, 20% of children are not up to date on their mmr vaccines, which is one of the reasons why we're seeing an epicenter right now, and in texas history, close to 30 years, some of the highest numbers we've ever seen in measles. symptoms to look out for, common symptoms include high fever sometimes exceeding 104 degrees fahrenheit, that textbook rash that can cover your whole body, cough. it can start one to three weeks after exposure, and vaccines work. the mmr vaccine which you get between 12 months and 15 months is up to 95% effective in preventing, so these numbers are
7:44 am
all preventible. >> gio: so two follow-ups on the vaccines. do adults need the vaccines and do we need to accelerate the vaccine series for young kids? >> dr. darien: that's a good question. i think we just need to catch up. we need at least 95% of the population to be vaccinated. in order to prevent outbreaks. we're steadily declining to 93%, but that number is not uniform across every state. as i said, you have pockets of significantly undervaccinated communities. do you need a booster? most likely no. the vaccine thankfully provides protection throughout your life. however, if you have immune compromise or if you are in chemotherapy, you can talk to your doctor about getting tested. but overall, you are safe and your risk is relatively low if you are vaccinated. >> whit: dr. darien, as always, appreciate it. >> dr. darien: of course. >> whit: coming up here on "good morning america," will ganss is joining us with the most bingeable tv shows and movies this week. steppenwolf) ♪ ♪ get your motor runnin'! ♪ (car horns blare) come on! ♪ head out on the highway! ♪

"wicked" is of course, the most nominated film of the night, but get this, if "anora" takes home the top award, best cast in a motion picture, that could mean it's a lock for best picture at the oscars. they've won top honors at the directors and producers and
7:50 am
guild awards. jane fonda will be honored with the lifetime achievement award. the show starts at 8:00 p.m. on netflix tonight. >> gio: okay, can't wait, but love kristen bell. what about some last-minute nominees to stream? >> reporter: i love "the wild robot." it's one of my favorite movies of the year animated or otherwise. it's about a robot that washes up on an island and she cares for an orphaned goose. it's available to stream at home on peacock and it's nominated for three academy awards. i can't recommend that enough, or if you are looking for something slightly more mature, check out "sing sing." colman domingo plays a wrongfully incarcerated man. joins the rehabilitation through the arts program. he's nominated for best actor. what's really cool, he stars alongside many real life formerly incarcerated men who are alumni from the program in real life. so lots of good stuff to watch. >> gio: unbelievable in it. >> whit: nominated two years in a row.
