this morning. new reports that president obama is going to unveil what could be a troefrtcontroversial plan at his state of the union address this week. tax hikes for the rich to fund tax cuts for the middle class. let's bring in martha raddatz. does this plan have any chance of passing? >> well you know dan, that's exactly what all of washington is asking. it's already drawn fire from some republicans. the president is proposing a $320 billion tax hike over ten years on the wealthiest americans and large corporations. he'll do it by increasing the capital gains tax. closing the so called trust fund loophole. and adding fees to fnl institutions. that would pay for a middle class tax cut, including house holds with children, tax incentives for college students. it's an ambitious plan already meeting resistance in the republican-controlled congress. dan, no surprise. >> whether it passes or not, it

may set the terms for the 2016 debate for sure. let me switch gears. you'll be talking about terror on the show. can you give us a sense of what is coming up? >> we'll delve into where the sleeper cells are coming from and where they're headed. we have a lot of great guests this morning. >> martha thank you. just a reminder for everybody. martha has a packed show this morning with the latest on the anti-terror raids happening, that's on "this week." and join chief anchor george stephanopoulos and the powerhouse abc news political team on tuesday night for the state of the union address. and the republican response. now let's bring in ron claiborne for the other stories. >> good morning to you, paula and dan. sara. good morning, everyone. we begin with terrifying moments aboard a jetblue flight that nearly collided with another jetliner just before takeoff here in new york city. passengers arrived in austin, texas, safely.

hours ago, the pilot told those passengers they almost crashed into a caribbean airliner that crossed right in front of the jetblue flight. >> we were heading full-speed down the runway. the plane came to a screeching stop and slid a little bit. everyone panicked. >> all of a sudden when it was time he started gearing up, going fast. and then all of a -- i mean, like it was crazy. brakes went on. slammed on. >> luckily, no one on board either of the flights was injured. pope francis is celebrating sunday mass among a huge crowd in the philippines. despite steady rain, an estimated 6 million people turned out for the mass. and along the motor cade group. the crowd is believed to be the largest ever for a papal appearance. eclipsing the 5 million that saw pope john paul in the same park years ago. this was the final leg of pope francis' six-day pilgrimage to asia. breaking overnight, two teenage sweethearts on the run,

suspected of a crime spree spanning five states, they have now been caught. 18-year-old dalton hayes and 13-year-old cheyenne phillips were found asleep in a stolen car in a parking lot in panama city beach in florida. the couple from kentucky was on the run for several days. accused of stealing three vehicles, breaking into homes, and caught on surveillance video allegedly trying to cash forged checks. and comedian bill cosby's latest performance was met with a crowd of pro testtesters. this was in colorado. protesters standing outside the theater for hours, heckling the people going in. demonstrators were joined by women's rights attorneys gloria allred. after another woman came forward claiming cosby drugged her. three hikers and their dog had to be rescued when they found themselves stranded in the angeles national forest. that's near los angeles. the hikers and the canine were hoisted to safety. without any injuries to anyone.

in an interview with our robin roberts, oprah speaks about the the timing of this film. >> i thing that all the people who are protesting now could benefit. you can't just be marching without an intention. you have to have a clear, strategic intention of what it is you want to accomplish. and you cannot be heard unless you come in peace. that was the power of that movement. >> we're not asking, we're demanding give us the vote! >> it's about a community that came together for what was right. i thing that -- it speaks so beautifully to this cultural moment that we're in. >> reporter: yet, with the national conversation focusing on race, many in hollywood claiming "selma" didn't get the recognition it deserved when it came to oscar nomination. the hashtag oscars so white now trending. though the film did land two nominations. best picture and best original song. david oyellowo's depiction of dr. martin luther king jr. was

left out of the best actor category. >> i say that we live to fight another day. and i'm so, so proud of our film. >> reporter: ava duvernay film's director was always left out. selma was nominated in every major category at last week end's golden globes. it only won for this song. from the star common and john legend. >> common has a good streak going. he's on a show on amc. apparently he does a great job in this movie. i'm dieing to see it. has anybody seen it? >> it is fabulous. i don't know how it could be nominated for best picture without ava duvernay getting a nomination for best director. >> or best actor. he's great. >> there's some other really good contenders in there. a lot of directors.
