you had the entire international community tell kim to stop. >> you did. and you got china and russia onboard. and that was a diplomatic feat. and the devil is in the details, as you know better than anyone else. how do you get china and russia to implement and enforce these sanctions? i read a quote from a north korean expert in "the times" this morning. the resolution, 1 ye1 years in e past didn't work. >> they basically very much said we have to enforce these to be -- for for this to be legitimate. we have to hold the countries accountable. we will be watching to see who is enforcing. more importantly than that, china accestepped up and said, they're not only going to vote for this, they announced they're going to enforce and urged other countries to enforce. the missile launch took place right next to their border.

their ground shook. the chinese people felt it. they know this is series. >> for decades, your country has been trying to build up some kind of nuclear deterrent or offensive capabilities. you're now this close. you've got a nuclear device. you've got missiles that you've shown can reach the heartland of the united states. your last step is to combine those two things. why in the world would you negotiate now when you are this close to having the weapon that will give you the strongest hand? >> he may not negotiate now. i think what we did was, we sent a message. now, we have gone directly after their hard currency. think about it. all of the revenue that comes into north korea. it doesn't go to feeding their people. it goes to a ballistic missile program. they will not longer will have the money to do that. >> can you stop him in time from combining those two things? the missile and shrinking the

face? >> he has not said that. he said all options are on the table. and the discussions we had, we'll do whatever it takes to counter north korea. >> separate issue. there's a new poll that shows the vast majority of americans do not trust what they're getting out of the white house. sucks in ten don't consider the president honest and trustworthy. and only 24% of americans say they trust all or most of what they hear from the white house. it's one thing when you're talking about crowd sizes in the inauguration. in your line of work, this is serious. does the white house have a credibility problem? does that concern you? >> as a governor, every day, you try to get the trust of your people. that's part of your people. and the only way you get the trust, is not by what you say, by what you do. if you look at the actions, this president, all of the new investment that's happening, a lot of people will say, i don't believe this or that. >> you say that, look at the actions, ait acknowledges -- it

tacits acknowledgment because you can't trust the words. >> i don't see that way. i look at results. i know there's back and forth and sometimes unnecessary chatter that goes back and forth with that. but you have to look at the results. this is a time we have to look at the american people and say, are they better today than yesterday? and i think they are. >> the administration's just received a sweeping report on climate change, coming from scientists at 13 federal agencies. it hasn't been made public yet the but it's been reported, that we're feeling global climate change right now. and human activities are primarily responsible for that global climate change. given the fact we just pulled out of the paris climate accord, will the administration embrace the results of this study? >> first of all, you have to look at, just because we pull out of the paris accord, doesn't mean we don't believe in climate protection. we're saying we're not going to sell out american businesses to do that. >> will we embrace the results of this report from 13 federal

agencies? >> i haven't seen the report. but i don't see any reason why they wouldn't. a lot of this is, we're not saying that climate change is not real. it is real. it's how do you have that balance between making sure you have jobs and businesses moving and how you protect the climate? the answer is in the middle. >> ambassador, nice to have you here. >> appreciate it. we have a lot more for you this morning, including major news including the safety of some of the military aircraft. the marine corps is considering to order a temporary aviation standdown to refocus marine pilots and crews on safety. this follows a series of accidents, including the crash off of the coast of australia over the weekend. tom costello has the latest on this. what can you tell us? >> reporter: this would not be undecemb unprecedented. but it underscores safety concerns in the military. in a standdown is addressed, it could last 24 hours, giving every ground crew time to focus on the basics. it comes after three marines

osprey crash off japan last december, during a refueling mishap. but the osprey is not the plane that suffered a series of crashes duringdeployment. >> it has a good safety record over ten yards. >> reporter: the fleet is aging. the average plane is 15 years old. the average fighter is 30 years. >> the planes are getting old. and the aviators are getting tired. that increases the potential for aviation accidents and incidents. >> reporter: now, remember the air force never stood down after the first gulf war in 1991. pilots continued to fly the no-fly zone. then, the war in bosnia, before iraq and afghanistan. decades of war have meant wear and tear on planes and equipment. an urgent manhunt is under way for the suspect that killed

and the debris that's in it, they're pulling it out, piece by piece. >> reporter: emergency operations are under way to shore up the hole, dumping limestone in its edges. in this part of florida, sandy soil sits on top of a layer of clay and a layer of limestone. water or drought conditions can dissolve the layers, forming a sinkhole. this one is interesting to scientists at the university of south florida. 67 years ago, there was a large lake here. in time, it was filled in. becoming orange groves and vacation homes. if the neighborhood's history may have played a role in the formation of this monster sinkhole. >> my suspicion is this is all the material that was once at the bottom of the lake. and this area used to be lake bottom. >> reporter: that sinkhole there, large enough to swallow a

747. homeowners in this area are wondering why their mortgage companies didn't require them to have sinkhole insurance. of course, it's now too late to purchase it. matt, savannah? >> heart goes out to them. kerry, thank you. there's new developments in a story we told you about last week. hackers have put out more insider info from hbo. and they threatened to issue even more if the company doesn't pay a ransom of several million dollars. using the name mr. smith, the hackers served up a fresh batch of stolen files on monday. the data dump includes what appears to be scripts from five "game of thrones" episodes. including one episode that has not run yet. hbo is working with police and cyber security experts. al is here with the first look at the forecast. not hacked. ready for release right now. >> we have a lot of weather to talk about. out in texas, big problems. san antonio, massive flooding. a lot of high water rescues.

regime. that came after they said they would retaliate a thousand-fold after u.n. sanctions against the country for the missile test. now, for his part, mr. trump has called for the sanctions to be implemented immediately. and this morning, on "today," u.s. ambassador to the u.n., nikki haley, had this stern warning. >> the president's prepared to do whatever it takes. now, all the balls lie in kim's court in north korea. he's got to decide how far do you want to take this rhetoric? >> reporter: and just this morning, the president retweeted this tweet. it's a fox news story that cites anonymous assessments about north korea. it's notable because the trump administration has lambasted report reporters who use anonymous shorss. the attorney general has vowed to crack down on those who leak anonymous information. we expect the see trump later today when he gets briefed on a domestic crisis by his secretary

you know? he didn't know how to tell me. >> reporter: this morning, gabriel's parents are suing the school district, claiming in part, school officials not only knew the student-on-student aggression was rampant, especially in ton supervised bathrooms, but chose to cover it up. >> he should never have had to suffer like this in third grade. he was a great student. he loved school. but as the bullying progressed, it became really torture for him and they had no idea that that was happening. >> reporter: the family claims the video showed gabriel, knocked unconscious in a school bathroom, lying on the floor for almost seven minutes, while other students kicked and poked him. cincinnati public schools says they found out about the video after investigators looked at his death. and they were told that a boy was on the floor. a school nurse checked him on the floor and told his mom he had fainted. other parents complain about what the suit calls a culture of

violence. >> these kids don't want to come to school. i went to teachers. i went to principals. i've even went as far as calling the school board. i got no call back. >> it's not a safe school. it's not. and it needs to be investigated severely. >> reporter: prosecutors investigated his death and did not bring any charges. the school has said it's reviewing procedures regarding supervision in the restrooms and is committed to student safety and a positive learning environment. the family is seeking a jury trial and unspecified damages. they hope this lawsuit brings change to spare other parents the pain they've had to endure. savannah? >> blake mccoy. just heartbreaking. thank you. in other news, u.s. officials are abandoning plans to require sleep apnea screens for train drivers. it's been blamed for several train crashes and highway crashes. but the federal railway
