we've already seen 12 reported tornados from north and south carolina over the weekend and now it's all just rain and heavy at times in parts of new york and pennsylvania. much of the northeast going to see this. you could end up seeing pockets in the next 24 hours of two to three inches of rain but it has lost a lot of steam and it is going to move very quickly. another thing we've got to talk about coming up not only red flag warnings in california but snow in denver this morning, david. >> snow in denver. >> a little bit -- >> she had to say it. >> she did. political news this morning, the political note, now the latest from the president and the white house, overnight the trump administration revealing their list of demands they say need to be met to strike a deal on protecting the so-called d.r.e.a.m.ers, young undocumented immigrants brought here as children and leaders quickly responding saying the president can't be serious. a lot of reaction coming in to vice president pence's decision to walk out of an nfl game as players took a knee during the national anthem. the vice president did not want to dignify such an event, he said.

trump and a powerful gop senator, bob corker, is intensifying this morning. senator corker telling "the new york times" that trump's reckless threats could be putting the u.s., quote, on the path to world war iii. our senior white house correspondent cecilia vega is in washington with the latest on all of this. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. this is a stunning war of words, a senior republican senator going after the president bashing him publicly in ways even few democrats do. it is an extraordinary public rebuke of a sitting president by a member of his own party. in an interview with "the new york times" tennessee's bob corker blasting president trump saying he treats the office like a reality tv show and is so reckless the nation could be on the path to world war iii. corker said in several instances he's hurt us as it relates to negotiations that were under way by tweeting things out. and the hits did not end there. corker said it

tremendous amount of work by people around the president to keep him in the middle of the road. and that, quote, i know for a fact that every single day at the white house it's a situation of trying to contain him. it capped a day of stunning in-fighting aired for all the world to see. after corker made this jab last week -- >> secretary tillerson, secretary mattis and chief of staff kelly are those people that help separate our country from chaos. >> reporter: on sunday morning the president punched back on twitter saying corker begged me to endorse him for re-election, i said no and he dropped out. said he could not win without pie endorsement. adding, he didn't have the guts to run. corker disputed those claims and fired back tweeting, it's a shame the white house has become an adult day-care center. someone obviously missed their shift this morning. and corker says he is not alone

senate shares his concerns about the president. >> and, cecilia, on that note, corker had another quote that's really raising a lot of eyebrows from that article. he said i don't know why the president tweets out things that are not true. you know he does it, everyone knows he does it, but he does. again, this is a member of his own party. >> reporter: yeah, i mean he's essentially calling the president a liar there and corker is a vital vote for president trump. he sits on the senate budget committee. he chairs the foreign relations committee. president trump is going to need him on things, robin, and, david, like iran and tax reform, but this is just a stunning, stunning turn of events. >> it is, in the meantime, cecilia, as we watch the back and forth a fellow republican, we're following another major political headline involving immigration and the d.r.e.a.m.ers, 800,000 undocumented immigrants, children brought here by their parents and remember that dinner. you reported on it, the president, chuck schumer, nancy pelosi, the democratic leaders

on the drooemz without tying it to the wall. no longer the case? >> reporter: president trump is attaching conditions to this. he wants funding for a border wall and tougher immigration system and the response, you said it, david, from chuck and nancy as he calls them, this administration can't be serious. >> all right, cecilia vega with a lot going on at the white house this morning. thank you. we turn to the battle between the white house and nfl. vice president pence walking out of that colts game in indianapolis when the players from the san francisco 49ers knelt during the national anthem. to mary bruce on the hill with reaction pouring in. good morning. >> reporter: good morning, david. the white house seems to relish this fight and appears to want to keep it going, again, they are reigniting this debate over the national anthem. the vice president yesterday taking that stand to oppose players who take a knee and the president says, it was all his idea. as players from the san francisco 49ers took a knee

sunday, vice president mike pence staged a protest of his own. the vice president who flew from las vegas to indianapolis for sunday's game standing with his hand on his heart but soon after he and his wife abruptly left the stadium. then he tweeted this. i will not dignify any event that disrespects our soldiers, our flag or our national anthem but it wasn't an impromptu protest. an aide says pence planned to leave all along if players took a knee. and president trump is taking credit for the walkout. tweeting, i asked vp pence to leave stadium if any players kneeled. i am proud of him. many 49ers are known for doing exactly that. their former quarterback colin kaepernick started it last season and eric reid calls his actions a pr stunt. >> he knew our team and most players protest. he knew that we were progress going to do it again. >> reporte t

one democratic congressman saying after all the scandals involving unnecessarily expensive travel by cabinet secretaries, how much taxpayer money was wasted on this stunt? now, we've asked the white house about those criticisms and questions about the expense of the vice president's appearance, but, david, so far no response. >> all right, mary, stick with us here. i want to bring in van jones, cnn political commentator. you wrote a new book saying progressives and conservatives need to come to the table to understand one another. i want to ask in light of the new book what we saw, the vice president leaving the game early, the pool reporter who travels with the vice president didn't even go into the stadium was told the vice president might be leaving a little early leading to so many saying it's a political stunt. what is going on? has either side demonstrated they want to come to the table? >> it's crazy on top of crazy deep fried in some crazy. that's what's going on. at the end of the day you have now the president, the vice president pulling off a stunt

oppose a stunt protesting a protest. at some point you got to be done with the crazy. i am on a crusade against crazy. that's what the book is about. i've gone all over the country and been to red state, blue sta states, ap la-- appalachia and michigan. food fights in washington, d.c. and nothing getting done. i'm trying to get people back together. >> protests against protests. >> yes. >> instead of asking what's behind both sides. >> what's so crazy this started out as about police community relations. that's what it's supposed to be about. now we're talking about free speech for athletes and talking about who is insulting soldiers. nobody has insulted any soldiers so you could be dealing with substantive issue, instead symbolic protest and i think americans are sick of it. >> the president tweeting his support of the vice president on this. i want to get to the war of words with senator bob corker. this

republican but republican versus republican. reckless threats that could put us on a path to world war ii. we haven't heard these from democrats on the hill. >> that's what happen, though. when you start this division, it doesn't stop between the parties, it goes into the parties, we're headed -- listen, if we don't change directions we'll end up where we're headed and it's a very bad place. the reason i wrote this book is because i know for a fact there are issues that can bring us together. this issue we're going to be divided on. why do they double down on it? instead we should be looking at the stuff we could come together on. this addiction crisis is killing people across the country. in the book i talk about how that could bring us together. the criminal justice system. most americans don't want to be in a food fight every day. we can't even talk to our cousins anymore because of this division. we can come together, though. >> this has been some time we've all felt this way. long before the election. >> i'm sick of the crazy and on a crusade against crazy.

against madness in the country. it's a cure for the crazy. >> sick of the crazy is the quote and the book is "how we come apart". >> we have more in common than not so focus on those things we have in common. >> how about that. the las vegas shooting details overnight, the strip going dark marking one week since the tragedy and this morning, we're learning more about the shooter's deadly plans and past. a woman who says she worked with the gunman and considered him a friend is now sharing her story. our senior national correspondent matt gutman has more. >> reporter: this morning, these new images of a smiling stephen paddock obtained exclusively by abc news. grinning there under his arm is lisa crawford who says she was a property manager in a building he owned in mesquite, texas, for six years. >> he cared about everybody's finances. he cared about everybody's cars. he

cared about people. >> reporter: including her. those pictures show them palling around together with iconic las vegas hotels in the background. >> we e-mailed, text. we didn't like -- neither one of us liked talking on the phone. >> reporter: crawford who says she's spoken to police and the fbi about her friendship with paddock said he had a goofball sense of humor and was even generous to his tenants. >> the person that i knew, knew back then, they would have enjoyed living on one of his properties. >> reporter: but paddock remains such an enigma that the fbi executed another search warrant on his home near las vegas on sunday. you can see where they breached the garage in that nonscript house in the cul-de-sac. overnight one of the first police officers in that sniper's nest telling "60 minutes" that the shooter

note with him. >> the elevation he was on, the drop of what his bullet was going to be for those -- for the crowd. so he had had that written down and figured out so he would know where to shoot to hit his targets from there. >> reporter: officials reporting it contained numerical figures for wind, trajectory and distance, apparently meant to maximize his ability to kill the concertgoers down below. jason aldean who was on stage when the shooting began making his first public appearance saturday going on "snl" where he sang the tom petty classic "won't back down" ♪ well i won't back down. >> reporter: jason aldean back in las vegas living up to those lyrics. you see him there with his wife right in front of the mandalay bay hotel and visited victims at the umc medical center. now a sliver of good news this morning, of the 500 people wounded in that attack only 8 remain hospitalized this

robin, david. >> jason aldean, that was a powerful performance. >> on "snl," it really was. we move on to that new fallout for harvey weinstein. overnight the movie mogul fired from his job at the company he once founded over explosive sexual harassment allegations and linsey davis has late developments for us. hey, linsey. >> reporter: just four days after the bombshell report accusing him of sexually harassing women this morning harvey weinstein is out of a job. while the weinstein company initially said the embattled mogul would be taking an indefinite leave of absence from the company late sunday the remaining board members including weinstein's brother bob announced his termination saying it was due to new information about misconduct that has emerged in the past few days. the ouster comes amid a week of growing fallout from that "the new york times" report that describes several accusations of sexual harassment against weinstein from both employees and actresses including ashley judd and rose mcgowan. on friday, three members of the weinstein company's

nine-member board of directors resigned followed on saturday by attorney lisa bloom who tweeted that she'd be stepping down as weinstein's adviser. this just one day after she appeared on "good morning america" telling george her client's behavior crossed a legal line. >> this is textbook sexual harassment. >> it's gross. yeah. >> it's illegal. >> yes. >> reporter: this as another accuser came forward, a local news reporter who claims weinstein accosted her in a closed restaurant hallway ten years ago performing an obscene act while blocking her exit. this weekend she tweeted for those asking why i waited, you try telling that story ten years ago. only possible now because of women with bigger names far braver than me. even president trump pictured here with weinstein at a 2009 film premiere weighing in. >> i've known harvey weinstein for a long time. i'm not at all surprised to see it. >> reporter: but when a reporter attempted to compare weinstein's behavior with president trump'

distinction. >> did harvey weinstein act inappropriate? >> he says they were inappropriate. >> a year ago that video that came out -- >> that's locker room. that's locker room. >> reporter: and over the weekend mcgowan among those who received a settlement tweeted a picture of herself in her 20s with the caption this is the girl who was hurt by a monster. this is the girl who you were shaming with your silence. she wants more women to come forward. >> all right. linsey, thanks. >> appreciate that. let's go back now to ginger. ginger. >> snowing this morning from ft. collins to denver. the earliest snow in denver since 2012 so in five years and will end up with four to eight inches. select cities brought to you by oral b.

before and the use of technology, et cetera. >> a major push for transparency because this is live and big, small, how many counties, departments across the country are involved. >> at any one time with let's say 8 to 12, one show has six at once. remember, we're on for six hours a week. two nights, friday and saturday three hours per night. so there's a lot of time to fill there and so we have six departments on one show but we tend to rotate a little bit to mix it up. we want different kinds of departments, we've got everything from local police departments to state troopers to sheriff's departments, et cetera and there's a little bit of different policing in each of those different kinds of department there is yeah, i want to get back to what you said about the smartphones. they've been transformational for departments and communities in watching it all transpire. >> absolutely because there's no better piece of evidence than that. this is such a heartfelt issue talking about an estranged wife and the kids

and, you know, that's one of the things we have to keep in mind when doing the show, the impact this has on people's lives. i mean there was another story that we did this weekend where a mother was driving her three kids, she had suspended tags on her license plate. turns out she was wanted on an outstanding warrant. they literally had to get someone to come pick up her kids because she couldn't drive. she was going to be arrested right there. >> so there's a real human impact. it's important. >> as dan said you can see him live "live pd" every friday and saturday on a and and e. >> thanks, guys. >> see you soon, dan. coming up, dove under fire for an ad being called racially insensiti insensitive. the back many lash and story behind it. what do you do if your kids beg to play football. why one father said okay despite the risk. dr. ashton is here. come on back. your eyes work as hard as you do. but do they need help making more of their own tears? if you have chronic dry eye

frankly, you come home you're a little nicked up, banged up. >> you talk in the article, i think like a military risk. >> that choreographed kind of disciplined way the game is played and i love the teamwork and love the coordination. >> what would you have said if your parents not have let you. >> i would have been infuriated. i lovefootball and it would have been such a bummer. >> reporter: so far father and son agreed the rewards outweigh the risk. >> when i see him walk off the field and his face is red and he's sweaty and i know he's given 100%. >> ever since i started football, you know, there's like late night 8:00 pickups from practices where he helps me get my pads off and i'm like worn out and he surprises me with like a gatorade or something. it's just, you know, it's awesome. >> now, luke says he reserves the right to change his mind. he's been really conflicted about letting his son play because of the issue of concussions. he says it c

easy decision. he's even had bad dreams about it and now he's taking it day by day. or play-by-play. to read more about his story find it online. robin. >> so good of him to share that. all right, linsey, thank you. we're joined by dr. jennifer ashton and ericka souter, the editor of mom.me. a lot of people are nodding along and watching this and it's not just football. it's other sports, as well. but what -- just give us the latest about head injuries. >> so really traumatic brain injury which is the medical term or concussion by the numbers pretty staggering statistics, one every 15 seconds in the united states. that results in 1.7 million head injury patients every year responsible for approximately 50,000 plus deaths, 80,000 plus with permanent disabilities and it cops with a massive price tag, almost $80 billion a year on our medical system learning pore about what's going on in the brain during a concussion. basically disruption in terms of the metabolism in the brain,

levels are changed and change in blood flow and impaired electrical signals and can have long-term effect and does appear young brains are more sensitive to this. >> ericka, when a parent sees or hears this they're grappling with issues. >> they're weighing the risks, is it worth my child playing a sport if they can have long-term medical effects from it? but they're also weighing it against the pros. something ha sports give every kid. that's teamwork. >> absolutely. >> a little bit of independence, perseverance. learning how to push through and work together and those are all skills that every parent wants their child to have. it's a debate. >> a debate in a lot of households. is there work being done to recognize concussions and the treatment and all that? >> there is so much research right now going on looking for maybe a blood test to accurately and sensitively diagnose a traumatic brain injury or concussion. we're not there yet so in the meantime, what can every parent

pay attention to your child regardless of their age to every hit, contact, fall. watch how that athlete moves after that contact. you know your child better than anyone and the coaches and the certified athletic tapers are amazing but they're watching five kid, ten kids, 20 kids all at the same time. you have to have your eyes on your child and i'm telling you as a hockey parent, you know my daughter plays a very rough physical sport. i watch every time she gets up because i'm going to know if she's skating, you know, impaired. you can't wrap -- you can't remove all risk. where would you stop? >> i told you this before. my momma pulled me out playing basketball and she was like, "humble and kin huh-uh. i know my girl. >> i have a 9-year-old and he loves to watch. i said, no, not right now. i don't feel like he's ready for that kind of physicality and i talked to him about it. you can have age appropriate conversations with your child. a 6-year-old might not get it.

hello. we're back now with your fashion fix this morning. we're helping you clean out your closet and create the perfect 30-piece collection part of a trend it's called the capsule wardrobe and the editor of cosmopolitan.com amy o'dell is here to show us how to do it. please welcome amy. [ applause ] >> thank you. >> you're talking 30 pieces for 365 days. >> exactly. so if you were like me you have a closet full of clothes and nothing to wear. >> that's true. >> so the capsule wardrobe is great because you shop one time for an entire year and you have every outfit for every indication for 365 days. >> that sounds just -- why didn't we think about this before. >> i don't know. it's not actually too good to be true because we can show you how to do it. >> you have four models. i would imagine the wardrobe capsule,

here, come on. they're so enamored looking at themselves. come on out. we have four beautiful models. to illustrate the four different seasons and the essentials for each. let's start with fall. >> so we'll start with fall on abby. hey, girl. wearing actually it looks like a top and skirt but this is a green velvet slip dress and i think that people think velvet is the kind of thing you can only wear when it's cold out but that's not true. she could take off the sweater, change the sneaker to a heel and wear it to a wedding. >> thank you. i like that. that's fall. let's move on to winter. thank you. [ applause ] >> here we have alexis and she is actually wearing what looks like a sweater but it's a sweater dress so she's tucked it into a trouser here. i know, it's very nifty. she could also wear it with an over-the-knee boot and just has a great like day to night look. >> wait a minute. that's a dress. >> this is a dress but it looks like a top because we folded it and tucked it in. >>

[ applause ] >> i love these models. they're so focused. i love that. fall, winter. >> spring. so hannah is wearing here something that i love which is the blue jean but it's embroidered and i think people think with 30 pieces i need the basics, these are basic pieces but we jazz them up with a little embroidery on the side. she has a t-shirt with a little built of embroidery as well and a trench coat that's not your basic trench coat because it's in pink so you can dress up an outfit with a pop of color. >> very good. i like the accessory she has as well. then it's going to happen again. summer is going to come back to us. [ applause ] >> can't wait. but if you're dreaming of your winter or your spring vacation this is a great look. so on rachel we have this little duster coat and it's in a silky fabric and she's wearing it as a jack as you can see but the reason i absolutely love these pieces is that you c

on their own belt them and become a wrap dress and then you have two looks in one so imagine you're going on vacation. you have a jacket, you wear over something like this. >> sure? or you wear it on its own and belt it and go out to dinner. >> talk about pricing here because if you're only going to have a limited amount of items in your wardrobe, you have to spend a little bit more for the quality? >> in the beginning you do so you're going to splurge to save. so you'll do your shopping spree and spend more than you would on a typical shopping trip but in the long run you'll save a lot of money because you're not feeling like you have to buy something every two weeks. it's a good investment. the second thing to remember is that you want to invest in the things you wear the most. so if you have a handbag that you want to take to work every day, spend more money on that bag than maybe a pair of shoes you might not wear as often. and the final thing invest in basics so if you're shopping you might see a t-shirt and think i can get a $5 t-shirt it doesn't matter but they have to last you for an entire year so might want to spend $25 o

get a lot of wear of. >> i imagine accessories are a big key too. >> they're a great way to mix up the look. you can see how they take outfits from casual to dressed up. so in our fall look we have a sneaker but you can intap that out for an elegant sandal and you can wear that whole look out to dinner or to a wedding. >> i'm just messing with them. i'm trying to get them to smile and everything. beautiful. amy, thank you very much. >> thank you so much. >> okay, we'll be right back. great job, ladies.
