♪ i just want to fly and up and away. the incredible high-flying stunt bringing the movie "up" to life. how this man through 15 miles, 8,000 feet in the air with just a lawn chair and these balloons. ♪ put your arms around me baby and we do say good morning, america. we say, say what! >> say what. >> that stunt. >> inspired by the movie "up." but i don't know if that's creative or flat out insane. >> maybe a little of both. first new developments overnight in washington. the senate was up late. vice president pence cast deciding vote to repeal a rule that makes it easier to sue banks or credit card companies and the shock waves still being felt after two republican senators blasted president trump. senator flake will join us in a moment. he said yesterday enough is enough. >> he called the president

bock corker accused the president of debasing the presidency. mary bruce, all the reaction coming in on capitol hill. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, robin. well, we are witnessing an astounding public indictment of the integrity of a sitting president for members of his own party. senator jeff flake said he cannot be complicit to the president's outrage which is reckless, outrageous and undig if i nyed. this morning on capitol hill. a widening war within the republican party. >> we must stop predepdzing that the degradation of our politics and the conduct of some in our executive branch are normal. they are not normal. >> reporter: on tuesday arizona senator jeff flake announced he will not run for re-election declaring he cannot work with the leader he finds dangerous to democracy. >> i rise today to say, enough. >> reporter: flake a longtime critic of

duty and conscience. >> we have fooled ourselves for long enough that a pif sought to governing is right around the corner. a return to civility and stability right behind it. we know better than that. >> reporter: but this morning some of the president's allies are celebrating flake's departure. sources close to steve bannon who has declared war on trump's opponents say his reaction crushed him. another day, another scalp. but flake is not alone. senator bob corker, another top republican not seeking re-election is also unloading on the president. >> i think that the worst of it is going to be just the whole debasing, if you will, of our nation. >> you think the president is debasing the nation. >> i don't think there's any question. >> reporter: it all comes as the president is trying to unite the party around tax reform. >> mr. president, any comment on senator corker? >> reporter: but the infighting

>> does any of this make the president pause and wonder if he is doing anything wrong? if he bears any responsibility? >> i think that they were not likely to be re-elected and i think that shows that the support is more behind this president than it is those two individuals. >> reporter: but republican leader mitch mcconnell says he regrets flake's decision praising him as a fine man who brought high principles to the senate and mcconnell's job may be getting more difficult. senate republicans have a two-vote majority and have you two top republicans with little to lose and little incentive to fall in line behind the president. >> now let's bring in jeff flake joining us from the capitol. thanks for joining us. boy, you've heard the white house. sarah sanders calls your speech petty. steve bannon, an ally of the president, another day, another scalp and the ap is privately taking credit for forcing you and corker out of the senate.

have you been given victory from retiring? >> i don't know if you can put it like that. i couldn't run the campaign that i wanted to run and win in this kind of republican party. so i guess the president does deserve credit if you want to call it that. >> so what happens next? you say it's time for our complicity and accommodation of the unacceptable to end. >> right. >> bob corker aside, are your republican colleagues now in the senate being complicit by staying silent? >> no, a lot of my colleagues have spoken out and i think a lot more will. what i tried to say in the speech is the longer we wait, the more we basically normalize this kind of behavior and these kind of politics and we can't do that. we just can't. we've gone nine months into the administration, those of us who hoped for a pivot i think agreed now it's just not going to come and so it's up to us to stand up and say thiss

senator? what should you and your colleagues be doing? >> well, certainly if the president proposes policies, if he acts on some of the threats he's made, for example, to go after the press, to go after the licenses of some of the networks that have been critical, then certainly we act. so on policy if we must but certainly just to speak oil against the tweeting and the behavior that just isn't becoming and is beneath the office of the president. >> it seems like as you say a lot of your colleagues may agree with you privately. some are speaking out as well but there's a pretty prevalent view the party has to stick together to get tax kits and i guess my question is, is that prize worth the price? >> well, i talk in the book i wrote earlier about the bargain that we seem to have struck on many of these issues and i think there is a risk if

to just ignore behavior that we shouldn't ignore and when the president is challenging norms that have been with us for a long time, particularly in the international realm, these have long-lasting imply indications that we simply shouldn't ignore. >> and on that tax bill like senator corker will you oppose it if it increases the deficit? is that one of your principles, one of the dictates of your conscience? >> i'm a supply citer. i believe tax cuts produce economic growth so you might have some short-term deficits but i'm not an uncomfortabled supply citer and i am extremely concerned about our looming debt and our deficit and so we're going to have to look at the package and see what it does. >> finally how about the future of your fight against president trump. where does it go next? are you open to challenging him in 2020? >> that's a long way away. i'm focused on my next 14 months in the

we get some good policy, there are some things that i want to accomplish in the short term, certainly myself and senator tim kaine are pushing an authorization for use of military force. there's thele daca issue we need to do and broader immigration policy. so i'm going to focus on those things. >> but not ruling out a challenge in 2020. >> you know, that's a long time away. and we'll deal with that when it comes to it. >> senator flake, thanks for your time this morning. >> thank you. >> it's not that long away. >> no. >> yeah. >> around about. >> that's it. jon karl, this republican revolt. will others follow? >> well, this is a revolt right now. it's a revolt from some of the most respected names in the party. you know, jeff flake, corker, a committee chairman, the former presidents, john mccain but it is not a spam period. i have spoken to many of these republican senators who i know

everything that jeff flake said but they are not saying it publicly and aren't saying it publicly, robin, because they believe two thing, one going against donald trump could hurt them politically, could destroy them, flake was not going to win that republican primary in arizona and they also believe that he is the one who can sign their agenda. when mitch mcconnell came before the senate yesterday, corker in the room, the president in the room, first thing he said it's because of donald trump we have neil gorsuch on the supreme court. the message is you may not like what's going on personally but it's getting our agenda. >> it's still his party. >> but i got to tell you, a republican party that has no room for a jeff flake tore bob corker or john mccain doesn't seem like a republican party that can remain a majority party for long. >> we learned yesterday that the dnc actually paid for some of that research that went into that dossier that's become so infamous after some republicans paid to fund it during the primaries aga

>> we learned through an intermediary the clinton campaign paid for the research that became the dossier and the democratic party. what we don't know is who the republican was and to me that's one of the great mysteries. it started with a republican foe of donald trump. >> have no idea. >> have no idea. >> we can guess. we have no idea. >> we'll turn to that deadly shooting that is breaking. a deadly shooting on a college campus in louisiana at grambling state university. the shooter on the run this morning and our senior justice correspondent pierre thomas has the latest details. good morning, pierre. >> reporter: robin, good morning. tragedy has come to grambling state university this morning with a horrific shooting. two people gunned down on a courtyard on campus. it came after a fight in a dorm that spilled outside. one of the victims a student. the other a student's friend. both only 23 years old. the shooter has not been identified and has fled the scene. police do not believe the suspect is a student at the school. authorities advised students to stay inside

[ speaking a foreign language ] >> reporter: with the surviving attackers escaping on motorbikes. >> the video came from one of the locals from a village very locate to tongo tongo where it happened. >> r

a former u.s. military expert on west africa. the images reportedly sent to residents of the local ville ago around the time of the attack. the men speaking in local ethnic dialect. >> it says if we capture them what are we going to do with them. one says we'll decapitate them. another one says we'll fight them with weapons. >> reporter: this man says the video was actually shot by the leader of the local militant group named abu waleed. >> he is one of the high value individuals that the u.s. government is looking at. >> reporter: another video shows him last year when he declared his allegiance to isis. two senior u.s. intelligence officials tell abc news the mission went from reconnaissance to kill our capture. after the unit received information from that a high value target had been located some eight hours away. but when they went there they found nothing. >> we want to make sure we have the whole story, we have the whole story in context. we can provide the facts to the family. that's my primary target

15 and 17 years old sat silently. their devastated families looking on. the boys pleading not guilty to second degree murder. >> something came through the windshield and hit a friend. >> reporter: the group was throwing stones off this overpass on interstate 75 as part of a game called dinging, trying to strike the metal on the cars passing below. one of those stones weighing 6 pounds crashed through a windshield killing father of four kenneth white on his way home from work. the rock struck white in the head then the chest. his fiancee left shaken and angry. >> i just hope they realize their actions and how many lives they have torn apart. >> reporter: prosecutors say the teens threw a total of 20 stones striking several other cars as well. >> it was not a prank. it was a deadly affair and a deadly set of circumstances that resulted in a man's death. >> reporter: according to officials, 17-yea

the teens hiring separate attorneys. frank manly is representing 16-year-old mark sekelsky. >> he is a teenager one day thinking about girlfriends and like i said prom. his world is turned upside down. >> reporter: similar attacks carried out by teenagers before in 2014 this ohio schoolteacher struck by an eight-pound boulder while in the passenger seat. some experts believe brain development may play a role in teenage recklessness. >> that's why adolescents by and large are more impulsivimpulsiv. >> reporter: this morning a community grappling with a split-second decision that destroyed so many lives. >> he's asking about his daddy. and i'm telling him it's not coming back. it's been so hard. >> reporter: and the teens are being held without bail. they're due back in court november 2nd. robin. >> all right, alex. thank you. we bring in dan

horrific. second degree murder, is that the right charge? >> as a technical legal matter there is absolutely an argument for second degree murder here and that is it was intentional and reckless disregard for human life and under the law of michigan they're old enough to be considered adults. the question is going to have to be to evaluate each one of them ridley and look at what were his actions? meaning right now we're saying five kids have been charged with second degree murder. that's true. but it may not be that each one of them is actually responsible in the same way. and i think part of this is going to be that the prosecutors here are going to want to pick and choose the least culpable ones, potentially get them to testify against the most culpable one or ones and then you reduce the charges by a lot for the teens that were less culpable and you go after the one or the two because we know apparently according to the authorities which person threw the rock

>> you know, we keep saying rock. we're talking about a six pound almost like a boulder. four of the boys are 15. one is 17 and everyone keeps coming back to their ages and thinking that that should be justification for some sort of leniency. >> but it might be. particularly in sentencing. so let's assume for a moment that someone is convicted of second degree murder. take the 17-year-old off the table for a moment. one of the younger ones. let's say one of the younger ones was convicted of a second degree -- it's possible it would lead to leniency facing up to life in prison as a possible sentence here but, you know when you're talking about leniency that's not a lot of leniency and the more important question what were the actions. one of them went to the police by the way to turn himself in. that's going to help that person. a likely candidate potentially for the one who they may want to try to turn. >> we'll stay on this. thanks so much, dan. george. >> thank you. now to new developments in the harvey weinstein scandal. another actress has come forwa

accusing him of sexual assault and suing the company. a abc's diane macedo here with the story. >> dominique hewitt is bringing the first civil suit against the weinstein company after she said he sexually assaulted her. it comes as a new scandal arises involving a hollywood director. mim mitchell is the last one to come forward accusing she was sexually assaulted by weinstein. >> i told him no, no, no. but he insisted. >> reporter: she alleged in 2006 she tried to fight the mogul off but forced her to submit to a sexual act. >> i would not have wanted anyone to do that to me even if it had been a romantic partner. i remember harvey afterwards rolling on to his back saying, don't you feel we're so much closer to each other now? to which i re34r50ied, no. i decided to share my experience today in support of

other women that have come forward. women have the right to say no and that was a no regardless of the circumstances and i told harvey no. >> reporter: weinstein is facing at least six allegations of sexual assault and nearly 60 complaints of inappropriate behavior. now the company bearing his name is facing its first civil lawsuit from actress dominique hewitt who says she was sexually assaulted by weinstein in 2010 suing the company for negligence. this comes as the studio is fighting for its life. a private equity firm is deciding whether or not to purchase it. with hollywood reeling from the weinstein allegations, this morning a hollywood superstar is speaking out about her ugly experiences with director james toback. julianne moore said he approached me in the same language. wanted me to audition. come to his apartment. i refused. one month later he did it again with the exact same language. i said don't you remember you did this before. more than 200 women have come forward

revolutionizing delivery but tech titan amazon is taking things a few steps farther literally delivering those packages not just to your do doorstep but inside your home. it's called amazon key. here's how it works. the driver arrives and scans your package which automatically sends a phone signal to you. at the same time a security camera mounted in your home begins rolling so you have a record of the whole thing. so that i can return home to my package in my front entry which i've been following along on my phone which has been recording from that camera. why is amazon doing this? >> well, we heard from customers, a lot of customers would love having their packages delivered in their home even when they're not there. relationship the free service is available for prime members. beginning november 8th in 37

85 million prime members in the u.s. spending an average of $1300 a year, that's a lot of homes. as i'm sure you can imagine some people are going to be skeptical about the idea of a stranger going into their home. >> amazon is really focused on safety and security. all of these drivers are the same drivers that you know and trust to deliver your amazon packages today. they're background checked and approved to deliver for amazon. >> if the cloud is the thing that keeps me from having someone come into my home or not with the smart lock like this, what happens if the cloud gets hacked? >> well, you know, i can tell you that privacy and security is the most important thing that we're working on at amazon so all of the devices are encrypted. >> reporter: the service is optional and could be one way to stop package theft. 23 million americans say they'

you still wouldn't do it. i see that right there. security checks, cameras. they built in a lot of failsafes. >> the they have and the way it work, george, you go on to the site as an amazon prime customer. you order just as you normally would. you opt in so this is voluntary. you don't have to do it. you opt in with the in-home service and the delivery person arrives at your home. outside of your door. they scan that package. once they've scanned the package it accepts a signal both to your phone, which activates a notification on your phone and says the delivery will take place and also sends a signal to your front door to unlock the front door. then they can drop that delivery inside of your front door and the whole thing, you can watch, on your phone on the camera. >> yeah, okay, all that. right. but you also asked him about the cloud. >> of course. >> and being hacked and he didn't really answer the possibility. >> well, and this is the biggest question. security and i did talk to him about this even beyond what you saw in the conversation because the cloud, of course, we know

we've heard things about the cloud before that aren't always good. in amazon's case they say that this is not only encrypted information, all of 89 information itself is encrypted the deviceses, the camera, the lock on your door, everything is encrypted so they feel very confident that this is a secure service that not only is secure from the delivery standpoint but also from the technology. >> for people who don't understange encrypted explain it. >> it is the highest level of security that you can have in terms of technology today. it is the thing that basically locks off anybody else from looking at the information except for the parties who are actually inputting that information, for example, if it was my phone i'm the one who can see my phone but it's encrypted to anyone else outside. >> what i keep wondering, would you do it? >> i'm curious to see how it works. here we are in this world where we now use uber, for example, we use airbnb, we trust strangers constantly in ways we might n

it'll be interesting also to see is there an age difference here. are you going to see perhaps younger consumers who are more inclined tors this using it and some of the people who are not so accustomed to it -- >> i think it's inclined for the younger customer. but they have been doing the same thing since the pony express, that's how we've been getting our mail so why -- [ applause ] why does amazon, why now are they trying to shake things up? >> i think the beam line here and this is why you're seeing wall part do the same thing. any impediment to you using your service, if your impediment is you're not home so you can't get their package they want to fix that and take every pain point out of the transaction so that they can literally control all of it and you want to shop with them all the time. already 43% of retail is happening on amazon online right now. >> round of applause, who would do this ask round of applause, who would do it?
