donald trump and ted cruz locked in a battle for iowa, where the caucuses are dominated by conservative and evangelical voters. abc's tom llamas son the trail in des moines. good morning, tom. >> reporter: george, good morning to you. and neither candidate is turning the other cheek and now cruz's aggressively going after trump to draw distinction with voters and according to cruz, trump is getting rattled. this morning, donald trump sending a signal to a key iowa voting bloc, saying he can do something senator ted cruz cannot. >> i'll be much stronger in protecting the evangelicals. >> reporter: in an interview with the christian broadcasting network, trump comparing himself with ronald reagan. >> he didn't read the bible every day seven days a week, but he was a great president. >> reporter: on monday, donald trump quoting scripture at jerry falwell's evangelical liberty university. fumbling the bible verse typically known as second corinthians. >> but 2 corinthians, right? 2 corinthians, 3:17. that's the whole ball game. >> reporter: and now rush limbaugh issuing this warning to

>> there are a lot of conservatives who think that he is a wolf in sheep's clothing, that he is a traditional lifetime new yorker and that means something. >> reporter: and according to cruz, he's chipping away at trump. >> don't listen to any candidate. look to our actions. as the scriptures say, you shall know them by their fruits. >> reporter: while trump is taking the fight to the airwaives, the cruz team believes that iowa will be won on the ground. at cruz head quarters in des moines, volunteers try to make 1200 calls a day. >> this is what we're convinced wins iowa. >> reporter: but iowa, nor new hampshire, have ever seen a campaign or a candidate like trump. [ dog barks ] >> what was that? is that a dog? >> hillary. >> uh-oh, it's hillary. >> reporter: and trump has three events today here in iowa. he says there will be a big announcement at the last event, his first event is in john wayne's hometown.

i hope he brought several layers to put underneath those navy blue suits he loves so mch. much. >> you look cold, tom. let's bring in jon karl to talk more about it. it cannot be more engaged. trump unloaded on cruz. cruz doing the same thing to trump but what about this factor now, these talk show hosts like rush limbaugh weighing in. >> reporter: we may have reached a pivotal point in this campaign where those influential voices on talk radio are starting to turn on donald trump. until now these have been some of trump's most reliable cheerleaders but in the latest fight, they're siding with ted cruz, not just rush limbaugh, mark levine yesterday said trump should cut the crap with his attacks on cruz. so that new york values attack from cruz drove people right back to what trump himself said 20 years ago. as you know, he said he was pro-abortion rights, open to gay marriage, because he is from new york, not iowa. this is the attack that could really hurt him. >> evangelical voters could make all the difference in iowa.

yesterday at liberty university from trump. >> reporter: yeah, now, evangelicals have never been the core constituency for trump. after all, this is somebody who said he never really asks god for forgiveness. yesterday at liberty, he did something we hear from on the trail a lot, lumping together his book, "the art of the deal" with the bible. listen to this. >> i always say, a deep, deep second to the bible, the bible is the best. the bible. the bible blows it away. there's nothing like the bible. but "the art of the deal" was the best-selling business book and obama didn't read it. and kerry didn't read it. >> reporter: so if you look in iowa, cruz is on the rise largely because he's winning among evangelicals. though, george, i have to say, if you look at national polls, the most recent still has trump with a big lead among evangelicals nationwide. >> okay, jon karl, thanks very much. george, as you know, republicans on the campaign trail taking aim at the white house over that prisoner swap

of those freed americans are celebrating with their loved ones, another family is feeling betrayed. abc's brian ross is here with that. good morning, brian. >> reporter: good morning, robin. that's right. the criticism is coming not only from republican presidential candidates but from the family of the one american who was not part of the deal, the american left behind. under the deal, the u.s. released from prison seven men convicted of helping iran's nuclear program and dropped charges against 14 more. republicans are calling it a bad one-sided deal. >> fact is we shouldn't have to trade anything to get our citizens back home. >> we've got to shake our head at how it's happening. >> reporter: no one more upset with the obama administration than the family of the american seen in this hostage video who was not part of the deal. >> please help me. >> reporter: former fbi agent bob levinson who disappeared in iran almost nine years ago. his family says it heard the news on television, not from the white house.

feel extremely betrayed by them. they have done nothing to get in touch with me other than after i asked them to. >> reporter: levinson's wife christine and son dan said the white house has gone back on its word. >> we have been given assurances over the years that my dad would be a top priority to get him home as much as everybody else, if not more, because he's been held for almost nine years. >> reporter: a senior administration official tells abc news that levinson was part of the negotiations, but that the u.s. does not know why he was not ultimately included in the swap. mrs. levinson, do you consider whether bob might have, in fact, died in captivity? >> no, i will never consider that until i have proof. i believe every day he's trying to come home to our family. we will never give up. >> reporter: the white house says the iranians have promised to determine the whereabouts of levinson, something his family says the iranians know full well and have known since he was first taken captive almost nine

good morning to you. most of the country isn't going to be paying quite the same as those customers at that gas station in northern michigan, but prices this week should drop another 10 to 20 cents. the national average this morning is now $1.89, 48 states have seen prices drop this year. and gas buddy is forecasting we will save an additional $17 billion at the pump this year. it's great news for consumers, robin, but, of course, there is the other side to this story. >> yes, there always is. and you bring this out. there is a downside to those low prices. what is it? >> exactly. it is all the people in this country who are employed by energy companies. because prices have dropped so far, so fast, it also puts their jobs in jeopardy. so we do think of them this morning, too, robin. >> we do keep that in mind, rebecca, thank you. to that scandal in pro tennis overshadowing the australian open. tennis officials are denying the

some of the sport's big es stargest stars demand answers. ryan smith here with the story. good morning, ryan. >> reporter: good morning, george. the australian open is in full swing. but this scandal is dominating the headlines. even serene in williams speaking out, saying she was totally unaware of it. and all of her opponents seem to play hard. but now, more stars on the hard court want to know exactly who has tainted their game. this morning, it's not the play at the australian open garnering headlines, but the reports from the bbc and buzzfeed which allege that tennis authorities suppressed evidence of match-fixing by players, failing to investigate around 26,000 suspicious matches. this morning, the sport's top stars, roger federer and andy murray, speaking out. wanting to know just who was involved. >> i would love to hear names, you know, then, at least it's concrete stuff and you can actually debate about it. >> it's bad obviously, you want to be made aware of the people that are, you know, potentially involved in this. >> reporter: while the association of tennis professionals deny the

tens of thousands of dollars to deliberately throw matches, buzzfeed said they have text messages that prove it. >> the evidence actually included 82 text messages that one of these players had exchanged with the ringleader of the sicilian gambling syndicate. >> millions and millions of bucks are bet on it and tennis is the easiest to fix because it involves one person. >> reporter: world number one novak djokovic admitted someone on his team was approached in 2007 about throwing a first round match in exchange for $200,000. >> i was not approached directly and, of course, we -- we threw it away right away. i mean, it didn't even get to me. >> reporter: he and other stars like murray say it's hypocritical while players are coming under such scrutiny a major sponsor of the australian open is william hill, a british betting agency where you can bet on the winner of matches, sets, and games. that gambling sponsor william hill is not implicated in the scandal. they're saying their partnership

integrity issues, not part of the problem. how much gambling is there in tennis? according to aussie betting company tab corp $16 million were wagered on the australian open on the first day, guys. >> betting just on a game. >> reporter: it could be games, sets, matches. that's part of the allegations here. >> wow, okay, thanks very much. amy with today's other top stories. a traffic nightmare in san francisco. >> yeah, that's right. the famous bay bridge between san francisco and oakland is back open this morning, after a crowd protesting police brutality blocked traffic. they drove their cars onto the bridge and stopped one in each lane before then chaining themselves together. police eventually cut those chains and arrested 25 protesters. well, crews searching for 12 marines missing off the coast of hawaii have found four life rafts in the water but so far no sign of those marines. they've all been missing since last thursday when their helicopters apparently collided during a training mission. and a new warning about climate change, scientists say the oceans are warming up faster than previously thought.

truck in this kmart parking lot. at the time, prosecutors say he was on the phone with carter for 47 minutes. at one point telling her he was getting out of the truck because he feared it wasn't working. >> he was scared. she told him to get back in the car. >> reporter: just days before in another text message carter writing, don't be scared. you're finally to be happy in heaven. >> it's inconceivable. i just don't understand how someone could do that. to encourage someone they claim to love. >> reporter: according to court documents, roy had attempted suicide and had been hospitalized before he even met carter. and in one text message two weeks before his suicide, he expressed his desire the take his own life, writing, i can't get better. i already made my decision. the defense now trying for a second time to have the involuntary manslaughter charge dropped. >> he has, in fact, brainwashed her to the point where she's now accepting his idea of this is my only option. >> reporter: in a statement to

michelle's communications were by no means threatening. and that roy made his on conscious decision to take his own life. adding, this is a tragedy, not a crime. carter is due in court next month. if convicted she faces up to 20 years in prison. george? >> okay, linzie. let's talk to dan abrams about this right now. those texts are so horrifying to read. does this brainwashing offense have a chance of getting the charges dismissed? >> yeah, this is not an easy case for prosecutors primarily because of the law. meaning prosecutors are going to have to show that she caused his death. now, if there was an assisted suicide ban in massachusetts the way there are in more than half the states it would be much easier. they'd have to prove she helped, encouraged, assisted. they don't have that kind of law in massachusetts. so they're charging her with involuntary manslaughter which makes it a much harder case. for prosecutors to win. >> it may not go to trial. >> it's possible a court will ultimately throw it out. >> you're launching a new

don't stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. don't take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. if you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling, numbness, or muscle weakness. while taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily... and it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. eliquis treats dvt & pe blood clots. plus had less major bleeding. both made switching to eliquis right for me.

where you're going to see some crying, some tearfulness. you're going to have some trouble sleeping and eating. you might be unsure how to care for your baby. that's kind of normal and these symptoms or feelings typically will last about two weeks. when you make the jump to postpartum depression, which affects anywhere from 10% to 20% of moms, so we're talking a lot of women here, this is not subtle. these are intense feelings, overwhelming sadness. you cannot perform what we call your activities of daily living. you can't care for yourself. you might have trouble caring for your baby and in severe situations you have thoughts of harming yourself or your baby. >> well, we heard in juju's report, 600,000 women a year diagnosed with this. >> right. >> if you're a new mom or have a loved one and you suspect something isn't right, what do you do? >> you have to speak up and ask for help. it's not a sign of weakness. it's a sign of strength. and at the end of the day, it's about your health and your baby's health. so asking for help is the first step. >> there are various treatments. >> a lot of treatments. they range from medication, talk therapy, in severe cases

it does not discriminate. it can affect the celebrity as well as the average everyday mom. we need to talk about it more. >> and we're so glad that hayden is leading that conversation and the manner in which she's doing it. >> absolutely. >> all right, jen, going to be busy again. you can take your questions, she'll take them throughout the morning. you can go to drjashton on twitter or go to our facebook page. amy? >> all right, robin. well, let's turn now to "the bachelor" bombshell that has so many people talking this morning. spoiler alert, if you have not watched yet, three women are gone, and one of them chose to leave. abc's reena ninan has the very latest. >> reporter: tears flowing and tempers flaring. >> go away. >> me? >> leave me the [ bleep ] alone. >> reporter: week three of "the bachelor" delivering plenty of >> she is not letting anything get in her way. >> no. she's very aggressive. >> reporter: olivia making enemies. >> i would love more, more, more, more time with him and i'm going to do whatever. >> to no one's surprise olivia

in fact, their first live performance was right here on "gma." and the original cast reunited for our cameras before their big anniversary special on the disney channel. a note from zac efron who's gotten a lot of flack for not being -- he has a lot of flack online. he sent in a special message to all the fans. >> he's a little busy. >> he is a little bit. and you saw the selfie that chris connelly took. so, here's abc's chris connelly with the story. together together together everyone >> my heart is just bursting at the seams. it's just -- it's so crazy it was ten years ago. >> reporter: it's true, 2006 saw "high school musical" debuting on the disney channel and rocketing to the head of the class. here and now it's time for a celebration >> reporter: its songs, dance numbers and beloved characters creating a tween-tastic phenomenon and turning its stars into overnight sensations. >> it was such a whirlwind. it felt like we were kind of swept up into this vacuum.

like we were the beatles. >> everywhere we went people knew who we were. >> and now it's like we can go to the coffee star and we're completely left alone now. that's what i mean. it feels like a different life. >> they still want selfies with us. >> reporter: this past weekend, the cast minus zac efron -- >> this is only ten years, let's have a billion more. i love you guys. >> reporter: -- reuniting to share fond memories for a disney channel tenth anniversary show on wednesday. what does it feel like to revisit a lot of where it all >> it's amazing. for me i kind of embrace the i want it all of sharpay and i'm doing it all, so i got a clothing line, a makeup line coming out, producing. the movie coming out in may so [ laughter ] -- a lot of it. i love ashley so much more now. >> it taught me that what you do is actually potentially going to impact people. >> just to come back into this room and to see everyone again and to go, oh, my gosh, we were we made this incredible magic

together together together everyone >> reporter: part of the magic their first live performance on "gma" back in 2006. wherever each other every time >> you guys were the first ones to kind of make everybody know who we were, and it's really neat to be here doing this specifically. >> let's sing "we're all in this together." >> reporter: as they continue to work on projects from broadway and tv to the big screen, these actors reflecting on what made "high school musical" special. >> "high school musical" came out at the perfect time. we were found by fans seeking us out. >> to actually have real young people playing that age and then have them put under the microscope and to really -- >> to survive. >> -- to survive, have nobody completely go off the rails, that's something that i think is a huge testament to what this cast is. >> we have tons of other friends but they don't understand what we've been a part of, and it's like this connection between all

>> if somebody comes into your life, what do they have to know understand you? [ laughter ] >> it's a package deal. >> it's a package deal. we're all in this together >> reporter: for "good morning america," chris connelly, abc news, los angeles. >> no. >> seeing that. >> those dance moves like that. the special "high school musical" airs tomorrow night at 8:00 p.m. eastern and pacific on the disney channel. >> you know, jesse, wasn't he in high school ten years ago? i think maybe -- >> i'm just segueing to you, jesse. now it's time to say good-bye to bad posture. it turns out it doesn't hurt you physically but it can also affect your emotions as well so a double-edged sword and abc's jesse palmer has the details. and you'll want to sit up straight for this one. >> you sure do, amy, and i also want to go back and finish 12th grade again. that was ten years ago. it turns out something many of

i can actually impact our energy, our productivity and even our mood, so we met up with a posture coach for some straight up advice. take a look at this woman and these people. what do they have in common? bad posture. professional violinist melissa tong makes beautiful music, but recently it's been a pain in the neck literally. >> i was feeling kind of like a pinching pain, neck discomfort. neck achiness. >> reporter: her bad habit, her posture. >> see, strain on the neck, strain on the back. >> reporter: enter the posture police. >> bad posture, it's not just about slumping your shoulders. that's better. >> reporter: lindsay teaches the alexander technique which helps to improve poor posture and says it can cause physical pain like neck and back problems, breathing issues, energy depletion and more. >> it can affect how people perceive you, how you feel emotionally, and it might affect

date or a second job interview. >> reporter: and don't forget about heavy backpacks and repetitive stress from our many devices. >> we're actually hear ging about very young people who are having spinal problems related to their posture using their smartphones. >> reporter: melissa's new good habits have made all the difference. >> the pain is almost nonexistent. ah, so much better. >> you know, it's amazing how posture really impacts how we're perceived. experts actually say that poor posture gives people a bad first impression. whether you're applying for a job or starting a relationship or even trying to make new friends, make sure you use good posture because it makes you appear stronger. >> we've all been shifting here. >> i know. [ laughter ] >> so we're obviously, and so many of us are sitting at desks each and every day. so, what can we do to improve our posture? >> so there's three easy steps that doctors recommend. first, they say try to make sure your screen is at eye level.

tilted up or down. type with your elbows at a 90 degree angle and make sure your wrists and arms are rested when typing. you do that, those three easy steps, avoid the slump and look stronger and more confident. >> lara, i've always marveled at your posture. >> thank you. >> is it from diving? >> i think it's ballet and diving and just my mom always used to say, imagine you have a string, sort of pull up. but yoga is a great way too. i highly recommend it. you can gain an inch back from your height because as we get older we do start to curl. >> and the slumping of the shoulders. remember also the power pose, she said -- >> yes. >> if you stand like this -- >> it actually improves -- >> that's so relaxed. >> good morning, america. >> but it's scientific. >> it is. >> it's scientific. >> lock it in, george. there, whoo! >> power pose. >> try to huddle in close here. we're standing up tall. stand up tall. good posture, everybody. you just want to shrivel in. just curl into a ball when it's this cold out. we are going to see some

at least across the south where it's cold even all the way down to the florida panhandle. rebounding from the 20s and 30s today in atlanta. into the 40s and 50s by thursday but above certainly the north carolina line, we're going to see air that's cold enough for snow so watching very carefully this developing situation which will bring some >> this weather report is brought to you by weight watchers. i hope a little hot soup is on the menu today. amy, back in to you. >> all right, rob, thanks and coming up, do you want to be a billionaire?

world came from nothing. they were all broke. >> including you. >> especially me. >> especially you and "beyond the tank," the new episode of "beyond the tank" takes you back to queens where you grew up and started fubu out of your mom's house. >> out of my mom's house. i didn't realize i was executing "the power of broke" until now on "shark tank" when i see the most successful people, look at me, don't anybody tell you need money to make money. i'm short, african-american, came from the hood -- >> nothing wrong with being short. >> nothing wrong with that. i can't design, dyslexic, got left back in seventh grade, maybe twice. i can't count, right. but all that didn't stop me from growing my company and doing what i need to do. i took affordable steps. >> what difference did your mom make? >> mom is great. see, a lot of mothers don't realize this. they already are entrepreneurs because they're the ultimate start-up. when you have a child there is no blueprint on how you'll raise this child. when your child has an ear infection three times a month, you have to go to the emergency room.

adoption. i mean, maybe kevin o'leary would but other than that you wouldn't do that. this is the power of broke. you work it out. >> you were a scrapper and had to get your business going and you had to find ways to get your fashion seen include inging get it on the back of ll cool j on on the head of ll cool j. >> i had to find ways to be -- people say you need opm. opm can be other people's marketing, other people's manpower or other people's manufacturing, and in the book, i put gigi butler who started off as a maid and doing $30 million a year doing cupcakes and kevin plank, $4 billion annually doing underarmor. they all exercise the power of broke. >> advice. entrepreneur ellen park's team hit a roadblock. she's wondering what would daymond do. let's take a look. >> toasty time, hoodies with mittens for pockets. we've been making hoodies for adults since 2007, and we are trying to branch out into kids'

getting noticed on our kickstarter campaign outside our already loyal clientele. what can we do? we're ready for prime toasty time. >> all right. >> well, she needs to go on facebook and find that audience that's talking about mittens and/hoodies or going skiing, things of that nature and buys $10 of advertisement ten separate times with ten separate messages and see how many people come back and like ad one, like ad three, like ad four. your conversion rate, four people like there or 50 people like that one. when she finds out the one she likes the most, she makes that ad and spends more money and starts converting her goods and selling her goods. >> daymond, that was specific. we have a little surprise for you because not a lot of people know you kept your job at red lobster -- >> i did. >> -- when you were starting out fubu, so in honor of that, let's see a surprise today. where is he coming from? >> yeah. >> there he is, the manager from our local red lobster right here.

>> bringing some -- >> oh, my goodness. >> where are the biscuits, the cheddar bay biscuits? >> we're bringing you the lobster. thank you so much on behalf of red lobster, we want you to congratulate you on your book. and we wanted to bring you some breakfast. >> thank you too guys for sacrificing yourself. i appreciate it. >> thanks for coming in. >> thank you. >> you're welcome. >> and thank you, daymond. "the power of broke" is available right now and daymond is on "shark tank" on friday at 9:00 eastern right here on abc. congratulations. >> thank you. coming up we're going to see

did on the diy chall it's the final countdown >> oh, i like this song choice. yes. we are kicking off a brand-new edition of "improve this!" with the ultimate football fan cave. whether your favorite team is playing in the big game or if they didn't make it, who cares, let's watch some football, people. everybody loves to watch the

with some great diy tips are chris and peyton lambton from hgtv's "going yard." i love these, when we have props, and by props i mean my co-workers. very nice, robin. right next to my nittany lion. so this is stadium seating that you guys have created. you could put this in your base many. you could do this in your garage if you can get a tv in there and this is just 6x8s? >> this is easy to make. something great for your garage, man cave, whatever. so you put it together with some 2x8s. buy a whole bunch of 2x8s and some plywood and some artificial grass. that's step one. >> i think we have graphics. they're supposed to come up but there you go. there you go. so you have that. >> then just like you're building a wall. you lay those 2x8s on end and screw them together. that's step two. >> i like the way you do that.

>> exactly. that's on every 16th. once step two is done put the plywood on top. this is very sturdy. don't have to worry about falling through that. that is sturdy right there. you can jump around and cheer, no problem. >> all right. >> thank you very much. >> i love the idea of astro turf. this is really cheap at a place like lowe's. >> yes. >> at your home center. >> right. >> you can find astroturf to really give it the football look. >> i played on that in high school. really good for carpet burns. really good quality. >> very comfortable. >> if you want to dress it up more, take duct tape and make the yard lines. >> it's a great idea. now, the one thing about this, it's not easy to store, needless to say, so this is sort of an investment project. it's not expensive but it's not the kind of thing you'll want to break down so you can use it for oscar season, you know, change it to red carpet and have a viewing. >> bring in chairs from all around your house, kitchen chairs, whatever you have. >> office chairs. >> looks comfy right there. first choice of seating there. >> strategic move.

our second project is even easier, and rob marciano is in the catbird seat and these are made with those pallets you find often behind stores. stores -- a lot of companies will actually give them to you free. how many pallets does theit take to make this mosh pit? >> six pallets. 2x4s, screws, all nice together and you won't hurt yourself there. >> you want to make sure you sand it down so it's not so rough. >> a little primer and paint. >> then you bought two futon cushions. >> comfy pillows and you're ready to go. >> this is easier than this because this you can break down and store in the garage. it can be fun for kids, moving watching. not only the super bowl. finally find an old coffee table, you can get it for next to nothing at a thrift shop. wood top, try to not get pressed wood, a real wood top. you cut three holes in it. this is the coolest cooler table ever.

not missing a minute of the game or the commercials. some people are in it for the commercials. >> ours will not be filled with soda. >> i love that. >> dom perignon for lara. >> and bring your snacks right here. >> liquor. >> and so it's very cheap. what kind of saw do i need? thank you. sounds like? >> trace that out, use a jigsaw. one little plunge cut, sand it down. it's that easy. >> these buckets are next to nothing. >> exactly. >> bingo. you can do soda. you can do chips in one. i love this idea because you can rescue, recycle and reinvent an old coffee table, so you've got your stadium seating, you got your mosh pit. the coolest -- yeah, yeah, yeah, do we have time? real quick, michelle, rob, we want to see your diy. so really quick, michelle made coasters. >> my hands are rough. >> fancy. >> aren't these nice? >> rob made a cutting board -- >> which is a serving tray. >> -- tray. >> because that's what you need in the man cave is a serving tray. >> cutting board and he added two door handles, couldn't be easier. both of them are winners.

>> touchdown. >> yay! >> it was a pleasure doing business with you. >> thanks, you guys. >> thank you very much. >> "going yard" is a great show. and you can find out more about these projects on our website goodmorningamerica.com on yahoo! check out these guys on hgtv. we'll be right back.
