frequen frequency. >> f-16s scrambling to bring it to safety. walk this way. the new video of pedals the bear standing tall and the mystery returns this morning strutting his stuff around the suburbs, experts stumped at how he does it. ♪ walk this way ♪ talk with way good morning, america. and look who's back? robin roberts. >> great to be back. yes, thank you very much and also back, pedals is back. >> yay. remember. >> doing so well. >> i know, he's back. we had the mystery of pedals. we reported walking on just two legs instead of four. now re-emerged from that suburban neighborhood and get an update on pedals. congress, this was really something to watch overnight. it's still going on right now. this scene playing out on the house floor. some members of congress livestreaming periscoping, even doing facebook live. who knew that they knew all this technology?

but it's really for a serious effort. they want action on gun control and they want it now but that vote doesn't look like it's going to happen. >> speaker paul ryan doing everything he could to get control to no avail even shutting down the cameras. abc's jon karl is there for us and has the latest. good morning, jon. >> reporter: good morning, robin. the die-hards are still there. they've been there all night. right now on the house floor even democratic leader nancy pelosi and they've gotten more than 1 million people watching this on twitter alone. overnight a chaotic showdown on the house floor. a protest like we've never seen before. democrats in congress staging a sit-in on the house floor like a bunch of student protesters on a college campus. vowing to stay put until they get votes on gun control measures. >> house in order. >> reporter: the house speaker tries to restore order. >> the chair appreciates that members will differ on matters of policy.

>> reporter: but democrats refuse to back down. singing and waving signs with the names of victims of gun violence. it went on throughout the night. the house floor sometimes looking like a rowdy slumber party. >> i just brought dunkin' donuts. >> reporter: lawmakers brought in snacks. piles of late night pizza. >> thank you for getting in trouble. >> reporter: leading the revolt, civil rights icon, congressman john lewis. nearly 200 democrats joined in as news of the protest spread, representative keith ellison received this message during a meeting. your mom called and wants you on the floor. democratic senators joined in too including bernie sanders fresh off the campaign trail. >> radical islam -- >> reporter: furious republicans tried turning off the cameras declaring the democrats are breaking the rules. undeterred the protesting democrats used their cell phones

to broadcast the sit-in on social media. the #nobillnobreak trending number one on twitter. republicans fired back with their own hashtag tweeting stop the stunt. >> this isn't trying to come up with a solution to a problem. this is trying to get attention. >> reporter: if you look right now we can go to pictures on the house floor, nancy pelosi is talking and keep in mind as you watch these pictures this is being shot by the members of congress themselves using their cell phones and, robin, that is a direct violation of the rules. you are not allowed to take pictures yet alone video inside the house chamber but as you can see right now all bets are off. >> we can see that. people want to know any indication that the republicans will give in to what the democrats are demanding. >> reporter: there is zero indication that's going to happen, robin. republicans say for two reason, one, they don't want to reward this breaking of the rules. they say this is a complete

breakdown of decorum of the way the house should work but also they point out that the very votes that are being demanded right now by democrats, those bills have already been voted on in the senate and they have failed. so even if there were miracul s miraculously a vote and somehow passed in the house they have already died in the senate. >> so it goes. all right, jon, thank you. >> waiting for the candidates for president to weigh in. in the meantime, we turn to the race for the white house. donald trump unleashing what might be his most blistering attack yet on hillary clinton. abc's tom llamas is at trump tower in new york to break it down. tom, good morning. >> reporter: david, good morning to you. in that hard-hitting speech trump called clinton possibly the most corrupt person to ever run for the white house. clinton says trump is on the attack because he has no real policies or plans to promote. donald trump striking back outlining his new line of attack on hillary clinton. >> she's a world class liar, just look at her pathetic e-mail server statements or her

phony -- >> reporter: as he pivots towards the general election sorts tell abc news trump will repeatedly hammer two points, first, that clinton thinks she's entitled to the presidency. >> her campaign slogan is i'm with her. you know what my response is to that, i'm with you, the american people. [ cheers and applause ] >> reporter: and, second, alleging that she used her cabinet position to benefit herself and the clinton foundation. >> she ran the state department like her own personal hedge fund doing favors for oppressive regimes and many others and really many, many others in exchange for cash, pure and simple, folks. >> reporter: clinton responding by calling trump out for profiting from goods not made in america. something he's campaigned against. >> the clinton foundation helps poor people around the world get access to life-saving aids medicine.

[ cheers and applause ] donald trump uses poor people around the world to produce his line of suits and ties. >> reporter: and clinton mocking trump's biggest boast, that he's the ultimate deal maker. >> we can't let donald trump bankrupt america the way he bankrupted his casinos. we need to write a new chapter in the american dream and it can't be chapter 11. >> reporter: as this race gets heated trump is actually leaving the campaign trail for a few days. he's flying to scotland for the re-opening of one of his golf resorts there. but there's already controversy. some of trump's scottish neighbors are raising mexican flags on their properties. robin. >> all right, tom, thank you. we move on to severe storms hitting the midwest. tornadoes ravaging illinois trapping people in their homes. wind guffs up to 100 miles an hour sweeping across indiana.

>> oh, my god. >> reporter: and that chicago soldier field an urgent warning sent fans scrambling for cover. during the soccer match between chile and colombia. streets of rain swamping the stands and maintenance crews creating waves trying to clear all that water off the field so the game could resume. and in minnesota, blinding rains made driving conditions incredibly dangerous for those still on the road. and officials here say at least two people were injured during the storm but luckily those injuries are not life-threatening. robin. >> that is fortunate. all right, alex, thank you very much. i know, ginger, you have more. >> more severe weather at this hour so it's happening now that same chunk of weather has moved to the south and east from kentucky right through west virginia to washington, d.c. this morning where the pga tour has been put on a delay. flash flooding along with severe storms could happen and look what happened overnight. in just near columbus, ohio,

just north in a town called delaware a river overflowing because they got anywhere from 4 to 6 inches of rain very quickly and so it's not just this morning the severe storms but the low will pass and then you get another shot this afternoon and evening, cincinnati, charleston, northern kentucky all included in that. damaging wind, we could still see tornadoes and, of course, flash flooding in here. >> drive safely today. thanks so much. we turn to that flight forced to make an emergency landing because of a man allegedly making threats on board, in fact, f-16s were scrambled to escort the flight to safety. abc's david kerley is live at reagan national airport with the latest. david. >> reporter: good morning, david. passengers say this man was acting very strangely, f-16s were scrambled and then pilots in the area were wondering what was going on. pilots flying in and out of tucson confused receiving cryptic messages. >> what's the issue with 29 right? is there a reason we can -- >> it's a security issue. >> reporter: the security issue, two fighter jets escorting a delta jetliner in for an

emergency landing. >> i wish i could better for you but be launching you in the face of fighter planes. >> reporter: once the delta jet was on the ground police boarded arresting a man who about an hour into the flight from san antonio to los angeles became uncooperative and a passenger was told he made a threat against the aircraft. >> he was walking up and down the aisle staring at people acting very unusual, anxious, rubbing his chest and wouldn't sit down. >> the suspect caused some sort of verbal disturbance on board the aircraft. this alerted the flight crew. >> reporter: that's when those two f-16s were scrambled as the delta jet made a quick descent. >> you, come to me. >> reporter: ryan healy took this video of the passenger being escorted off the plane in tucson. once he was off, the other passengers were taken off, as well, rescreened before they were able to head on to los angeles. now, it's unclear whether this

man was taken to a hospital for a medical evaluation or to jail and we still don't know whether or not he'll be charged with a crime. >> we'll wait and see. all right, david, thank you. now to what could be a major shake-up around the world. the united kingdom voting right now about whether to stay in the european union. the eu. the results could have a major impact on the economy here at home and abc news chief foreign correspondent terry moran has the latest from london. good morning, terry. >> reporter: good morning, robin. they're calling it the battle for britain. this intense campaign has divided families and friends and it is so close, the latest polls showing that this country's future and perhaps the world economy is on a knife's edge. decision day in the uk and passions are running at a fever pitch. >> your family -- >> what. >> reporter: on one side those argue that britain can regain control of its borders and its economy by leaving the 28-member

european union while the other side says the uk will be poorer and less safe if it cuts itself off from the eu's free trade and shared security. >> why would you deliberately remove yourself? >> i want a better deal for the people of this country. >> reporter: britain's biggest celebrities picking sides, elton john, j.k. rowlings and beckhams voting to stay, same goes for jed dice and spies from daisy ridley to james bond himself daniel craig wearing this shirt, no man is an island. no country by itself. wearing decidedly less elizabeth hurly dressed only in high heels and clutching a union jack pillow. she's for the brexit alongside joan collins and michael caine. markets around the world are jittery with some predicting if britain votes to leave the european union that could tip the world economy into recession and that, of course, would affect every american's 401(k) and financial future.

robin and david. >> you want to expand upon that a little bit more how it could affect the 401(k)s here in this country? >> reporter: well, there's no question, robin, that if europe tips into recession and britain is the fifth largest economy in the world, it will be in turmoil. these are large trading partners of the united states and the markets hate the uncertainty of it all. and so with the economy growing so slowly right now, anything could tip it over. >> you said it best there. the uncertainty really drives the markets wild. it is razor thin right now what can happen. terry, thanks so much. to amy with the other stories. >> this is sad. coast guard crews have recovered one body in the search for that family who was sailing off the gulf coast. they say they are trying to stay positive but they have made another heartbreaking discovery. look at that. they found tennis shoes, water bottles of the kayaks and life jackets. they say likely all belonged to 45-year-old ace kimberly and his three teenage children. they were last heard from on

sunday while sailing from sarasota to ft. myers, florida, in six-foot seas. the search resumes this morning. well, louisiana sheriff says the shooting of one of his deputies in new orleans was cold blooded murder. police say a teen suspect shot david michele twice because he didn't want to go back to jail for violating his probation. deputy michele is the fifth officer to die in the line of duty in louisiana this year alone. well, new concern about the safety of some of the most popular suvs out there. crash test results show the front seat passengers in many small suvs are not as well protected as the drivers, only one out of seven models earned a good rating for passenger safety. that was the hyundai tucson and most others were rated only acceptable or marginal. the toyota rav-4 was rated poor. a major milestone in air travel overnight. the first plane to cross the atlantic ocean using only solar power has landed in spain.

the solar impulse left new york city on monday. its next stop is abu dhabi where the plane began its round the world journey more than a year ago. >> thank you. the official estimate is in. 1.3 million people showed up for the cleveland cavaliers victory parade thursday. that is more than three times the city's actual population. fans scaled a parking garage. i'm told port-a-potties, whatever they needed to get on top of to get that view of lebron james and the nba champs. it's been 52 years since their last championship. they're literally climbing the walls. they're so happy. people were describing this when they came from all over the country as a pilgrimage, religious overtones. serious business in cleveland. >> 52 years they waited for that. >> a long time. >> enjoy. thanks, amy. got to switch gears now, that dangerous mission in the south pole to save two sick workers. we can report this morning success as the rescue plane was able to fly those workers to

safety. abc's alex marquardt has been following this story from the beginning. >> reporter: the first glimpse this morning of the two crew members arriving safely from the south pole in chile. one being carried out of an ambulance on a stretcher before being taken to an undisclosed medical facility. it was a daring, high-risk mission to one of the hardest places to reach on the planet. the small twin otter turboprop plane seth sitting down at the south pole taxiing on its skis. >> the most dangerous flying you can do in the word. there's so much risk here and so much unknown, what is really impressive how routine this actually appeared. >> reporter: the piles had flown 1500 miles through antarctica's 24-hour winter darkness. it's constantly changing weather. landing on the ice and snow in temperatures averaging minus 70 degrees. just a few hours later, after resting and filling the plane with specially heated jet fuel, the pilots took off again, the two patients on board. they flew from the south pole back to the british research station they had come from.

the patients switching planes there and flying on to chile. just the third time in 60 years that a midwinter rescue has been attended. >> they're putting crews in danger. putting lots of people supporting those crews in danger. so these people had to be really sick and it was a tough decision to make. >> reporter: the national science foundation which runs that south pole station isn't revealing what the patients are suffering from or where they're being taken. but this morning, as far as the harrowing rescue goes, it could not have gone better. david. >> those pilots who flew through darkness 24 hours a day, incredible. thanks, alex. right back over to ginger. we talked about the storms. now the heat. >> you know that's part of the fuel from tulsa to evansville and paducah. your local weather in 30 seconds, first the hot cities brought to you by mazda cs9. >> reporter: good morning

>> or maybe he'll just play. >> he does love to play. we do know that. developments in an alleged murder-for-hire plot involving an ex-marine surged celebrity chef. she has been charged for the crime after being brought down in a police sting operation. abc's gio benitez is here with the details. good morning, gio. >> reporter: good morning to you. a grand jury indicting her this week and listen to this, she's accused of trying to use her new boyfriend to kill her ex-boyfriend. but that new boyfriend wouldn't do it and he spilled the beans. this morning, 30-year-old laura ann buckingham, marine turned baker is facing serious charges that alleged she hired a hit man to kill her ex-boyfriend. >> after my last appointment i moved up to albany, indiana and started selling breads on the side of highway 150. >> reporter: on tuesday a grand jury indicting the marine who spent two tours in iraq before coming home. opening this bakery in indiana and becoming a local celebrity chef, even gracing the cover of

this lifestyle magazine. >> i started selling at different farmers' markets and couldn't keep up with the demand. >> reporter: but police say the wanna-be model had a darker side wanting to end a contentious custody battle with her ex-boyfriend, bradley sutherland, father the of their 3-year-old by having him murdered. >> i thought it was a joke. in all honesty we all thought we were being punked for a short period of time. >> reporter: police allege buckingham even recruit the her new boyfriend, joseph chamblin to help kill him. they say he told them about the alleged plot. authorities setting up an undercover sting where buckingham allegedly paid a $300 deposit. the total cost, 3,000 bucks. locals say the community is in shock. >> no one would ever imagine. she was well liked because what she gave back to the community after she came home from serving. >> reporter: but as for her

ex -- >> i don't feel angry. i feel kind of sad she felt the way she did that she had to do that to try to take my son from me. >> reporter: and buckingham is now out on $150,000 bail. she's wearing an ankle monitor. abc news has not been able to reach her lawyer but we know she'll face a judge on monday, robin. >> that we do know, for more let's bring in abc news chief legal analyst dan abrams. the credibility of the boyfriend, how important is that. >> he turns her in and typically in a indication like this he'd be critical. the reason he's not that important is because the tennessee authorities literally go in, they go undercover, they get a deposit from her to go ahead and commit this crime. then they show her pictures of what she thinks is now her dead ex and she then pays the remainder of the money. the authorities say, so that's going to become the critical point in this and as a result his credibility becomes a little less important.

>> so with all that what does the defense say? >> i think she's going to end up pointing the finger at him, at the guy who turned her in. you know, because they're two sort of exes at this point and if she does that, he then becomes the focus of the defense. i think she's going to argue he set me up. this was his money. he's the one who wanted me to do this. he's the one who was pushing for this. i never really wanted that. we'll have to see exactly what it'll be. >> what possible sentencing is she faceing? >> well, she could face if convicted like 15 to 60 years but you have to wonder whether there's going to be some sort of deal here, right. this is someone who friends say was suffering from posttraumatic stress disorder. does the victim meaning the father of her child not want to really move forward with this? >> it seems to be the case. >> i think he's got a level of sympathy for her and if that happens, you could see a deal here where maybe she gets a few years in prison. remember, she's out on $150,000 bail. it's not a lot of bail. >> isn't she pregnant too.

>> she is pregnant. she is pregnant. presumably with the child of the same guy who ended up turning her in. >> maybe that will play too. >> right. that's a big question mark. i think that could end up being a factor in this case and come up possibly as part of the defense. >> we'll see what happens. all right, dan, thank you. we turn to that bizarre story of a texas woman who woke up from surgery with a thick british accent of the rare condition is called foreign accent syndrome and apparently there's no known cure. abc's mara schiavocampo is here with more on this. hey, mara. >> hey, david, good morning. imagine waking up from surgery sounding like a completely different person. at first this woman's doctor thought it was due to swelling, her kids thought she was faking it. but it's actually something very real. mom of three lisa alamia is a born and bred texas girl. >> i say you all the time before the accident once i got the accident i started to notice i

said you are. >> reporter: is from england. it all started in december of 2015. she went in to surgery to fix an overbite and came out with a new british accent. >> i've never been outside of the country except for a mission trip to mexico and that's definitely not where my accent came from. >> reporter: listen to her voice before in a video her family made for their church. >> you guys have inspired us and befriended us and we love you. >> reporter: and today. >> i was very shocked. very -- i didn't know how to take it. i was very confused. >> reporter: so just how does something like this happen? it's an extremely rare medical condition called foreign accent syndrome. only about 100 reported cases ever. alamia's neurologist ran a full battery of tests but says everything came back normal. >> to know that she's not faking it, not making this up gets just such a rare condition that even neurologists that i speak to don't believe that this is the

real condition. >> reporter: while the accent can die mennish over time it can also be permanent and there is no known cure. now alamia plans to start speech therapy but has a message that sounds great regardless of the accent. >> you're still you. this accent doesn't define you. you are who you are. >> reporter: now it's most often caused by trauma or stroke but her doctors will keep doing tests to get to the bottom of it. part of the small 15% not due to head trauma. >> doctors say it is a real thing and i was struck by what she said. she'd only ever traveled to mexico. she hadn't even been exposed to the british accent. >> a woman from kansas woke up with an irish accent. so it can be an accent that you don't necessarily know is in you but it's in you. >> fascinating. >> does it wear off. >> it has gotten better over the last seven months but this may be as good as it gets.

it may be like this for the rest of her life. her kids are no longer scared because in texas a british accent is not intimidating. >> she wants that back so the kids will listen. to amy and the big board. >> coming up, obama's next career move could be nba? the stanford d.a. fighting back. tyra banks weighing in on the supermodel war. why she is speaking out passionately. we'll be back in two minutes. our bright, bold ocean spray craisins® dried cranberries transform everything. to show you, we're doing a taste test. but don't i need a fork? not for this taste test. which salad tastes better?

talking about that accent. we have it covered. >> we do. we know what was going on there, not. time for the big board. our team of insiders ready to weigh in of the first up a potentially new career for president obama? reports are coming out when he leaves the white house in january, he is eyeing ownership of an nba team so jon karl is back with us with that story. jon, i'm pretty sure owning an nba team is kind of expensive.

what are you hearing? >> it is. and, you know, the president has said in the past that he fant sides about being part of an ownership team of an nba team. but he just yesterday white house press secretary josh earnest said it again, said the president would be very interested in being part of an ownership team. almost like he's putting up in big neon letter, let me be part of a time. obviously he would have to have wealthy partners. he has money but not that kind of cash. >> i remember the press pool was waiting off air force one, the president did not emerge and finally the first family walks up to the plane because they were watches the cavs and did not want to miss the end of the dame. >> the president is the ultimate basketball fan. you know, david, he has some experience as a basketball coach. he coached for a little while sasha's middle school team. so he's got a little bit of experience and check this out, i love this video. this is from april. the president actually was taking time to show steph curry

how to hit a three-point shot. >> so we know that he was really interested in those two teams. any idea like what team he might be looking at getting into? >> well, you know, the bulls, the chicago bulls, that's the team he loves, of course, that is one of the most expensive franchises in all of professional sports and jerry reinsdorf shows no interest in selling it but he'll be living in washington for two years after leaving the white house. the washington wizards are here. who knows. maybe an expansion team. maybe a team in hawaii. >> how was sasha's record? how did that team for the record. >> they had a little bit of a problem and wanted to spend too much time practicing their three-point shots and couldn't quite reach the rim. >> jon karl, one of our insiders, thanks. jeff rosen fresh off the trial of brock turner is proposing a new law for those convicted of sexual assault and let's get right to sunny hostin. our senior legal correspondent.

>> in california, if you sexually abuse someone but use force, you got to go to prison. you get mandatory prison time. but in california at this point in time, if you sexually assault an unconscious or intoxicated person you can get probation. does that mean that a sexual assault when you're intoxicated, drunk or unconscious is less horrific? well, this d.a. says no. this d.a. is proposing a law to make sure that if you sexually assault someone that is drunk, intoxicated, inebriated, unconscious, you go to prison. i say bravo. bravo. >> a lot of people are saying that. we all know there was so much anger and outrage over that six-month sentence so could we see other d.a.s follow suit in other states across this country? >> no question about it. 80 to 90% of survivors of campus sexual assault don't report. those survivors say they don't report because they don't think anything is going to happen to their attackers. d.a.s across the country will jump on this bandwagon to send the message to survivors that if

together women can kicks off and celebrating women supporting each other and i talked about her with that and how she's made it through what's been an extremely difficult year. >> together we can raise our voices. >> together -- >> we can stand up to anything and anyone. >> call it the sandberg effect. >> when women lean in together we accomplish amazing things. >> let's lean in. >> let's lean in. >> let's lean in. >> all: together. >> reporter: women at the top of their files lending their voices to support sheryl sandberg's new campaign together women can. >> this campaign is celebrating the women who have helped each other and how we continue to help each other. we see all the time women supporting other women and i think there's a myth out there that women don't and it's not true. >> i think that those myths do exist that women are there to tear each other down competing with one another. why do you think those myths exist and that culture exists. >> i think it's expectations also. when two men have a disagreement at work they're having a substantive disagreement. when two women have that same

disagreement at work it's a catfight and so we need to understand that women can speak with strong voices and that doesn't make them mean. >> how can women help other women? >> there are small everyday things women can do to help other women in the workplace. men get credit more easily for their ideas than women so coming to the table and saying, this was a great project and this was based on real's idea is another way we can celebrate each other. >> together women can is the latest mission from the facebook coo and disney board member's lean in organization. the mother of two also talking about coping after the sudden loss of her husband dave goldberg last may. you have been very open and very honest in sharing the professional struggles you've been through as a woman. i know this last year you've had incredible personal struggles as well. i want to ask how you're doing. >> i'm doing better. it's a struggle, you know, i miss dave still, but i know i don't have any choice other than to keep going and i keep going because i look deep and i find

the resilience inside myself not every minute and every day but as much as i can. >> by being open and being vulnerable and sharing pain and heartbreak you help others get through a very similar circumstance. i'm sure i've heard from women around the world. >> it's been a challenge. i don't think i naturally would have been as open about this but once this happened, everyone knew and i didn't really have that much choice. there are so many people who are struggling with something in their lives and we get through it by leaning in together. >> what have you learned about yourself since you decided to lean in? >> i learned a lot and i think after i lost my husband i went through another phase of really having to dig deep and find the belief in myself i could keep going, that i could do, function as a single mother, that i will be able to do my job and take care of my children and, you know, i have resources others don't have and i'm aware of that and i'm grateful for that and i think we need to do a much better job supporting single mothers because there are so

many out there who need our help. >> what's your greatest hope for this campaign? >> my greatest hope is that we will recognize what's already happening which is that women are supporting other women. we will celebrate the women helping us and get rid of the myth that women are other women's worst enemies because they're not. and we will start celebrating leadership in women and little girls everywhere. >> we are all on the same team. >> now sheryl says if the current trend continues women will achieve parity with men in top corporate positions in about 100 years. she says women cannot wait that long and that's why women have to act now to support one another and, men, we need your help too by the way. let's go outside to ginger, someone i support and love. >> oh, love you back, amy. this is boon and willa. did you know you could cook a
