the car rolling over killing her sister then continues to broadcast the aftermath. and the american company taking micromanaging to a whole new level implanting chips into their employees' bodies saying they can log in and unlock doors with just a swipe of their hand. is this new technology about to hit your office? and we do say good morning, america. great to have michael back. you didn't need a micharochip t get in. >> i flashed this gap. >> a busy day in washington. welcome back, michael. john mccain returning to capitol hill after revealing he has brain cancer. he will be there for that crucial vote to try to open debate on the gop health care bill. how that will turn out is still a mystery. and president trump is unleashed this morning on twitter a harsh new attack on his attorney general calling for

a new investigation into hillary clinton and, guys, i just have to underscore how unprecedented, how abnormal this is. we have never seen a president publicly attack his own attorney general like this. we have never seen a president call for a criminal investigation of the opponent he defeated. this is brand-new. this is bizarre. the president crossing all kind of lines. >> we'll have more on all that in just a moment. first let's start with that health care battle. our congressional correspondent mary bruce is there on capitol hill. has the latest. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, robin. after seven years of promises and months of planning today is the day. senate republicans are finally going to vote to debate obamacare and they're getting a much needed boost, senator john mccain swooping in to deliver what could be the deciding vote on his party's defining pledge. overnight a surprise twist in the health care fight. a jolt of momentum from john mccain. the arizona senator announcing he is returning to the senate after revealing last week that

he has brain cancer. just in time for a critical showdown vote to overhaul obamacare. mccain has been recovering at home. over the weekend tweeting this photo on a hike with a friend. today he's dipping his feet back into the health care debate. with senate republicans poised to act, president trump is ramping up the pressure to deliver. >> it's time. you know, after seven years of saying repeal and replace obamacare, we have a chance to now do it. they better do it. hopefully they'll do it. >> speaking to boy scouts from across the country at a jamboree in west virginia he called out the state senator, a key hold-out by name. >> the senator didn't vote for it. you got to get the other senators to vote for it. >> reporter: senate republicans are set to vote this afternoon to begin debate on a bill. >> i know many of us have waited literally years for this moment to finally arrive. >> reporter: but there's one key question left unanswered. they still don't know what bill

they're working on. will they repeal and replace obamacare or just repeal? right now neither has enough votes to pass. the president's made clear what he wants. >> remember, repeal and replace, repeal and replace. they kept saying it over and over again. we as a party must fulfill that solemn promise to the voters of this country to repeal and replace. >> reporter: and this is going to be close. this morning unclear it republicans have the votes to advance this debate. it's why john mccain is so critical. he could bring republicans one vote closer to that magic 50 number. the president, in fact, just tweeting this morning, so great that john mccain is coming back to vote. brave american hero. thank you, john. george. >> okay, mary, one of many tweets from the president this morning. he has been up and up early on the attack against his own attorney general. calling for a new investigation of hillary clinton. that series of tweets just moments ago including this one.

attorney general jeff sessions has taken a very weak position on hillary clinton crimes. he also said so where is the investigation? let's get more on this from our chief white house correspondent jon karl and pierre thomas and, jon, let me begin with you. again, this is so extraordinary what we're seeing right here. no president in modern times has attacked his attorney general like this. no president in modern times has called for an investigation into his opponent and the president has now down this three out of the last four days. >> reporter: it's especially bizarre, george, when you consider that attorney general sessions actually had offered to resign back in may when the president first exploded on him for his recusal that resulted, the president believes, in the appointment of robert mueller as the special counsel. he offered to resign. the president did not accept that offer. now you have this continual attack on the attorney general. somebody who also was i would say, george, the single most important arguably the single

most important endorsement he got during his presidential campaign, a loyal ally. now the question is if he actually goes through and fires him or if this causes sessions to quit, who would replace him? we've heard two names floated. rudy giuliani and ted cruz. both men have said that they are not interested in the job. >> they have said they're not interested in the job. the question is would the president be trying to get someone to be in control of the russia investigation. meanwhile, this intensified interest in hillary clinton seemingly, not seemingly, he's pressuring the attorney general to open an investigation that had been closed. >> reporter: yeah, and that's strange given the president's own words, back in november after the election the president himself made it clear that he had no desire to go after the clintons. he said, you know, essentially let bygones be bygones. now you have this and we looked back, the president has tweeted about hillary clinton almost 40 times, 39 times since the election. he won that election but seems

intent on going back and relitigating it over and over and over again. >> this was an investigation the fbi completed and closed. let's get more from pierre thomas over at the justice departme department. the attorney general hanging in there up till now. >> reporter: he had been hoping that the president's anger would dissipate. that's not happening and the tweets make it clear the president is still angry about this and, look, at the end of the day everyone at the justice department is watching. can the attorney general continue to do his job under these circumstances when it's clear that the president increasingly does not have confidence in him. >> but, pierre, we have all -- there's no law but we've had all kinds of norms against the president interfering in investigations like this, all kinds of rules and norms and traditions built up that the president doesn't order an investigation into his defeated opponent. >> reporter: look, george, tradition has been at the white house and the president do not apply political pressure on the justice department with regards to criminal investigations.

they're supposed to be a bright red line but it looks like the president is stepping all over that line and creates another dilemma for sessions. does he stand up for the traditions and independence or let it appear that the white house is micromanaging the nation's top law enforcement officials. >> that is the big question. thank you very much. one more tweet from the president this morning, he said jared kushner did very well yesterday proving he did not collude with the russians. witch-hunt. next up, 11-year-old barron trump. >> go figure. >> interesting. >> all right. >> thank you, george. we turn now -- going to turn it all around and go to that severe weather overnight. flash floods across the south and the northeast and now the midwest is on alert for those storms and ginger is here tracking it all. good morning, ginger. >> good morning. so many areas we have to hit this morning. very heavy rain falling in southern nevada north of las vegas. unfortunately, i think we'll see more water rescues and more images like this than we have in

the past 24 hours. monsoon rains triggering flash flooding again in arizona. this was the scene in apache junction, cars stranded, roads erased. more than two inches of rain falling in just an hour. and now new video from arizona where 17 hikers were swept away. a human chain strainers lifting children out of the water. in birmingham, alabama, at least ten drivers had to be rescued after storm drains were overwhelmed by all the rain. in mississippi, the radar estimating eight inches of rain washing out roads. near philadelphia, winds ripping power lines, sparking fires. an amusement park in eastern pennsylvania under feet of water and this is what it looked like in syracuse, new york. powerful winds tearing the roof off this store. water pouring over the merchandise. in maryland, an ef-2 tornado with winds reaching 125 miles per hour shredding this building monday morning. so this is not what we need, more severe storms on the way

for the areas so hard hit by flash flooding. you can see damaging winds, certainly hail from eastern south dakota to minnesota and starts to move east into that area around the chicago, north suburbs, fox river. you can see southern wisconsin, eastern iowa, the quad cities all going to be an issue as we go through wednesday and flash flood watch still up in the southwest. robin and michael and george. >> you keep an eye on that, ginger. thank you. now to a scary moment in the air. a united flight forced to make an emergency landing in houston after an unruly passenger tried to storm the cockpit. abc's david kerley is at reagan national airport with those details. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning. this is the story as much about the scare as it is about five passengers who sprang into action to put an end to it. >> united 898 tango, roger, we'll get medical and law enforcement. >> reporter: no word whether the passenger will face charges for an emergency scare and landing. just 25 minutes after taking off from houston, passengers say a

woman seated in the back row started yelling and hitting the side of the plane. >> i hear a woman screaming in the back of the plane. you know, we're all protected and loved. this plane is going to land beautifully and kindly and beautifully. >> reporter: within mopes he says the woman on the united flight stands up. >> bolts into the aisle and with that starts sprinting toward the cockpit. >> he and other passengers jump into action tackling the woman just before she reached the front of the aircraft. >> it took five, you know, men to hold her down and it wasn't easy. she was in a totally psychotic state. very aggressive. >> reporter: the jet returned to houston late saturday and the woman was hospitalized. in another incident american airlines says three of its crew members were taken to the hospital on monday. the airline says that the crew was complaining about an odor inside the cabin as this jet was approaching miami from san antonio when they landed, the crew asked to be taken to the hospital.

american says they're checking out that a-319 jetliner for any kind of problem. george. >> okay, david, thanks very much. we'll move on to that tragic car crash in california. where an 18-year-old has been arrested for driving under the influence after crashing and killing her 14-year-old sister while live streaming the whole episode on social media. matt gutman has the story. good morning. >> reporter: good morning. in what is most disturbing she continued that live stream even after that tragic crash. now, the parents of these two girls say their lives are ruined. it's the darker side of live video feeds and in this case police say it'll likely be used as evidence in this young woman's prosecution. police say obdulia sanchez live streamed this hell ride through central california making matters worse, police say she was heavily intoxicated. swerving past that black suv, two 14-year-olds in the car with her. her sid kiss ter riding shotgun. she can be heard shouting she's going to kill me.

police say that it's exactly what happened on friday as the 18-year-old sanchez began drifting off route 165. then overcorrected. the car tumbling but three girls inside screaming. >> please wake up. >> reporter: shockingly with her sister lying lifeless she continues to live stream. >> i bleep bld my sister. i know i'm going to jail. >> she's been charged with gross manslaughter while intoxicated. >> it's disturbing to us because of the callous nature of her actions in the immediate aftermath. >> reporter: disturbing trend. people live streaming their crimes on social media. >> i think as our technology increases we're going to see new info have aive ways that people do or commit crimes and here the new technology is live streaming. >> reporter: police in florida also accused ryan styles of drinking and live streaming. >> whoo! >> reporter: he led police on a high-speed chase on the beach in

st. petersburg, florida, last week mowing over chairs and swigging what seems to be whiskey. now, social media companies are struggling to keep up. facebook says it'll soon have about 7500 employees reviewing questionable content. that's about a third of its entire workforce. mostly it means they take these videos down before they can go viral but what they can't do is stop people from posting these horrors. >> this is just unimaginable. thanks very much. amy with today's other top stories. >> unfortunately a tenth person has died in that human smuggling tragedy where a tractor trailer was found crammed with people. dozens remain in critical condition. they took turns breathing through a tiny hole in that truck. a mexican man says he was charged $5500 for the trip. the driver claims he had no idea he was hauling human cargo. he could now face the death penalty. well, the last killer whale born in captivity at seaworld has died after an infection.

the sudden death of the 3-month-old orca calf in san antonio has promised backlash now from animal rights activists. seaworld recently stopped the breeding of whales in captivity and has no longer orcas performing tricks during their shows. overseas israel has now removed metal detectors from a holy site in jerusalem following days of unrest. they were installed after an arab gunman killed two israel police officers and israeli officers are calling for more high-tech surveillance. a california distillery is picking up good vibrations letting their whiskey listen to music to see if it affects the taste. putting headphones on the barrels and you know what, they say it's working. when put to a taste test when exposed to everything from michael jackson to classical music are winning every time over the ones aged in silence and "the nutcracker" music this one barrel listened to three

years straight is winning every time. >> did you just say a barrel listened to? >> yes. it's the vibration that the music put into the barrel. >> i think i speak for george and i. >> i know what he's saying. >> i was explaining the science. when the vibrations are moving the whiskey -- >> with you. >> we believe that dogs talk before we believe that whiskey is listening to music but -- it's a great story. we have another great story this morning. about a chicago bears linebacker who is now being called a hero for his quick thinking at an airport. he saved someone who was choking and t.j. holmes is here with the play-by-play. >> hi, strahan, guys, the man is choking and a woman tries the heimlich and comes to the rescue an nfl veteran but when it comes to the heimlich he is a rookie. he quite literally hits people for a living.

>> jerrell freeman on the tackle. >> the chicago bears linebacker jerrell freeman is being praised this morning for delivering a different kind of blow. >> a guy like two seats over, he just stands up abruptly and like runs around inside of the table. >> reporter: freeman was in the austin airport on his way to bears training camp sunday when he stopped by for a barbecue sandwich in the food court and noticed a stranger at a nearby table in distress. >> he was pointing to it. pointing to his throat, his mouth. >> reporter: freeman a texas native rushed into action using the heimlich maneuver. after two attempts he dislodged the food from his throat. >> when i put him down he was like, oh, my god, you just saved my life. >> reporter: what do you do after? take a selfie with him. they shared their life-saving story on twitter and ryan tells abc news i will forever be grateful for his kindness and willingness to help a stranger. a great person like deserves to have a great season and i'll be

rooting for him. >> he said i think you broke my rib. i said it's either your rib or your life. >> freeman's mom is a nurse but never been trained on the heimlich and the guy he saved went back to eating the same brisket sandwich he had just choked on. >> wow. >> right after he choked. >> we got to try that brisket. that's good stuff. >> i'm with you. >> the heat is coming back for the center of the united states. more on that in 30 seconds. first your tuesday trivia brought to you by capitol one.

of her fiance,-year-old vincent viafore. prosecutors say that graswald who during an 11-hour police interrogation was filmed taking yoga breaks and playing hopscotch sabotaged viafore's kayak removing its plug causing it to take on water and sink during a trip on the hudson river valley. >> i don't see him. oh, my god. >> can you see the kayak still? >> no, the kayak went underwater. oh, my god. >> reporter: an investigator testified at an earlier hearing that graswald said she felt trapped by viafore and be free admitting she took his paddle after his kayak capsized in the choppy waters while he begged her to call 911. in court monday graswald said she knew the plug was not in viafore's kayak, knew that the weather was dangerous and that he had been drinking and wasn't. but she says she did not do anything to intentionally cause his death. >> you could tell by her -- the struggles she had in the

courtroom today through her plea allocution that she cared very deeply for vince. she loved him very much and never in her wildest dreams did she ever imagine that her conduct would lead to his death. >> reporter: police arrested graswald back in 2015. after that 11-hour interrogation. >> why didn't he have the plug in there. >> he didn't have it because i guess i had it. i wanted him dead and now he's gone and i'm okay with it. i'm okay with that. >> reporter: she later explained her words to abc's elizabeth vargas. >> they kept asking me the same questions like 1 hundred times. i knew that i was innocent. i was at my breaking point. i had it so i just gave them what they wanted. >> graswald is expected to be sentenced in november. she faces one to four years behind bars but because she's already served 27 months she could be released by the end of december, george. >> okay, linsey, thanks very much. let's talk about it with dan abrams and nancy grace and, dan, let me begin with you.

every time i hear negligent homicide i think it's a contradiction in terms. explain why she would plead guilty. >> it means you didn't do it on purpose but that you created a risk that was unjustifiable, that either you did something or didn't do something that led to the person's death. bottom line is that the reason she took this deal is because it means she's getting out of prison in a matter of months as opposed to risking it for years. the more interesting question is why did prosecutors offer this deal and the reason for that is because they had a weak case. nancy may disagree with me but -- you don't offer this kind of deal to someone who is facing murder charges unless you are worried you're not going to get a conviction and in this case i think it would have been very hard to get a conviction because that videotape you heard, that alleged confession point, it's really taken out of context. when you listen to the full 11 hours, it's nowhere near as

incriminating as the clip seems. >> i hear you laughing. i guess you don't think it's a weak case. >> listen, you know, why don't you just help her go to the bank, dan abrams, and cash in for her quarter of a million dollars worth of life insurance that this guy had and she was the beneficiary. how about statements like i'm glad he's dead. i'm okay with it. it felt good knowing he was going to die. here's what happened. she took the plug out of the kayak. it was found in the console of her car. while he begged for help, she kicked away his paddle. his kayak went under the choppy waters of the hudson in about 40 degrees. she waited for him to be underwater ten minutes then ten minutes later she called 911 and witnesses intentionally trying to turn over her own kayak so she could pretend that she saved -- tried to save him.

>> how much do you know about kayaks? >> singing karaoke. >> how much do you know about kayaks? >> i have kayaked many, many times. >> all right, good. then you'll know -- >> so, yes. >> the good thing is you'll know that removing that plug will not sink a kayak. that's not the way it rk kayak . do you argue that the kayak went underwater. they found it miles and miles away. >> let me ask you another question. have you been in the hudson river? >> it went -- >> have you been in the hudson when it's really bad. >> i have sailed up to -- yes, on a boat and a sailboat up to -- >> one thing has nothing to do with the other. kayak doesn't sink because of missing plug. kayak sinks because of high winds in hudson river. >> and why, may i ask, does she kick away his paddle? >> there's no evidence that she kicked -- >> listening, not hearing. >> she never kicked --

>> she said she kicked it away. >> she never admitted to that. >> she's charged with tampering with the paddle. >> why do you think -- >> she kicked, pushed away the paddle. she said that it's in her statement. >> the reason -- no, she did not admit to kicking it away. >> cha-ching. >> the reason -- >> she admitted to pushing it away. >> the reason that she is settling this case and the reason that the prosecutors are offering this deal is because they don't have the kind of case you're suggesting. >> they're afraid. that's why they're doing it. i never try to -- i wasn't afraid i wouldn't get a conviction but they are a afraid a jury will sympathize with her. come on. she said she didn't break up with him because she was too spiritual and if she just broke up with him he wouldn't truly be gone. >> nancy, the only hard part of my job is ending it. thank you both. >> robin. >> coming up, johnny depp ac

psychological issues and compulsive spending disorder now splashed across the headlines should be stricken from the proceedings calling the company's claims an attempt to publicly vilify mr. depp. >> he's been a star for 25 years. i don't think this is going to bring him down. does it help him, probably not but i don't think that people make their judgment about whether to see a johnny depp movie based on spending and his personal life. >> reporter: now after depp's latest filing his former management group telling abc news, johnny depp is doing everything possible to prevent the truth from coming out and the claims against tmg are fictitious and he knows it. shas starred in films producedy abc's parent company, disney and as far as his ongoing saga depp filing but the next court date is a motion hearing in november with the case set to go before a jury. that happens on january 24th of next year. >> so still a lot more to come. all right, amy. michael. >> robin, coming up on our big board that company putting
