wednesday morning. we thank you for joining us. we want to get right to our top story. the aftershocks are being felt by republicans with two republicans senators, announcing they've reached their breaking point with the president. jeff flake did it on the senate floor. we'll talk to him in a moment. first, we begin with our team at the white house. starting with peter alexander. >> reporter: we may be witnessing the rupturing, a reshaping of the republican party, after what felt like a significant moment here in washington. two top republican senators, sounding the alarm about the state of our politics and more specifically by president trump. jeff flake with a simple message to his colleagues, enough. this morning, the republican consist danc resistance. >> we must be unafraid to speak up as if our country depends on

aspire to be the president of the united states and act like a president of the united states. but you know, that's not going to be the case. >> reporter: a pair of prominent republican senators, including on president trump, in a series of scathing critiques. jeff flake facing a tough realex, resigned rather than serving a leader of undecency. >> reckless and undignified behavior and recused of untelling it like it is. it is outrageous and undignified. when such behavior resonates from the top of our government, it is something else. it is dangerous to a democracy. >> reporter: that emotional address, following the president's visit with republican senators on capitol hill. bob corker, now a fierce critic. >> i don't know why he

and debases his country in the way he does. >> reporter: the chairman of the foreign relations committee, saying he wouldn't support mr. trump if he had to do it again. heated words. president trump calling corker incompetent, a lightweight. saying he couldn't be elected a doug catcher in his own state. corker responded, #alertthedaycarestaff. >> when he gets hit, he's going to hit back. >> reporter: breitbart with the headline, winning, flake out. steve bannon saying, another day, another scalp. it's the latest in a pack of party heavyweights taking on the president in blunt terms. >> when the next generation asks us,

something? why didn't you speak up? what are you going to say? >> it's obvious his political model and governing model is to divide. >> half-baked spurious nationalism cooked up by people that would rather find scapegoats than solve problems. >> bigotry seems emboldened. all of . >> reporter: all of it as republicans try to jump-start their stalled agenda with 25 days left this year. so, what's key here, whether this escalating war among republicans will threaten the president's party or agenda. this has much less to do with policy than style and tone. flake has one of the most

right now. will any senators follow flake and corker's lead? that brings us to senator jeff flake, who joins us live. senator, good morning to you. >> thanks for having me on. >> one of the parts of your speech that caught my eye, when you talked about your colleagues in the senate. and you said, if you're waiting for president trump to turn a corner and grow up and become more responsible and start to get things done, your wait will last forever. that's not going to happen. my question to you, when you stepped off the senate floor, what did you hear from your colleagues? did they whisper in your ear and say, i feel that way, too? or did they say, i disagree and can't stand with you? >> if we are waiting for the pivot, we have to quit waiting. after nine months, they know it's not

hear that. i hope more of us will speak out. the longer we wait, this behavior and politics becomes normalized. we can't afford that. we can't. >> is there a difference in your mind, between a president who, undermines our democratic ideals and has a flagrant disregard for the truth and decency, and a president that is unfit to hold office? >> well, in terms of unfit to hold the office, the voters made their choice. he was elected fair and square. i don't think some of the remedies that are being talked about, impeachment, high crimes and misdemeanors. i don't think that applies. nor do i think that article 25, for the cabinet to force the president out. i don't think that is the right way to go. i think elected officials have a responsibility to stand up. and if the president is pursuing

on the threats he's made, for example, against news organizations, to pull their licenses, if they have news he doesn't like. or if he continues with a kind of tweeting and behavior that's just unbecoming of the president, we ought to at least stand up and say so. >> does it bother you that your moment, your sacrifice, is being seen as a victory by the white house. and steve bannon came out and said, another day, another scalp. by quitting, they're saying, they win and you lose. >> i'll let them describe it that way. i know for me, i couldn't continue and run a campaign as if this is a normal campaign. it's not. we're at a different time

if the president's actions are normal and can becountenanced. that's a difficult position to take. the president and these people can claim any victory they want. any colleagues and i have to stand up and say this is not normal. we have to change course. >> i have to say. there will be plenty of people that say, amen, i agree with you. and there will be a significant number of people that will think, that's just more talk by an established senator. the audience you need to reach, are the people who believe in president trump. they believe in him. if you have 30 seconds to make that pitch, what would you say to them to try to persuade? >> there is a tipping point that comes. in the 1950s, during the mccarthy hearings, members of

silent for quite a while, until the famous hearing when joseph welch, the chief counsel for the army, came out and gave the famous rebuttal, have you no decency, sir? and said, we've had enough. at that point, things changed. i hope that we're reaching the tipping point, where my colleagues and every elected official will say, we can't go on this way. these politics, you know, how can we explain to our kids that we are countenancing this kind of behavior from the top? i hope we reached that tipping point. time will tell. >> senator, let me test your newfound freedom. i know you disagree with her in every policy facing this country. but in terms of protecting democracy, protecting respect of the office of the

protecting our image abroad, is it possible in your mind to consider that it would have been better had hillary clinton won in election? >> i talk in the book that i wrote earlier this year, that we made a faustian bargain with this president. we could excuse the behavior and everything, simply because we could get some conservative judges. >> would it be better if she had won the election? >> no president, democrat or republican, in recent memory, has exhibited the behavior this president has. so, i am a republican. i'm a conservative. i would love to have a republican president. but not at any cost. i didn't vote for this president last november. i didn't vote for secretary clinton, either.

>> i can tell you, i'm not happy with the direction we're going. >> senator jeff flake, good to have you here, sir. thank you for sharing your perspective. also this morning, an infamous dossier from the presidential campaign, full of salacious allegations against then. candidate trump, back in the head lionellin headlines. a course confirming that hillary clinton's committee helped fund it. >> reporter: president trump himself was asking who paid for that controversial dossier. we have some new answers this morning, a couple of big questions still remain. >> thank you. >> reporter: hillary clinton out on her book tour, is now a private citizen. but as a presidential candidate, we're learning her campaign helped pay for research, leading to a now-famous

into donald trump's potential ties to russia. a lawyer working for the clinton camp and the democratic national committee, hired fusion gps, for research services, thatten colluded before the election in early november. that was turned into the explosive document of unverified and sometimes salacious claims about the president. it was one of the big mysteries during the campaign and transition. who paid for the dossier, put together by a british exspy, christopher steele. >> it is all fake news. a group of opponents that got together. sick people. t >> reporter: "the washington post" said an unknown republican paid for the research. it was picked up by democrats. once president trump looked like he had become the gop nominee. republicans have long insis

who is behind that dossier, which claims that moscow was compiling information about candidate trump. the press secretary tweeting, clinton campaign paid for the fake russian dossier and lied about it and covered it up. the president tweeted, justice department and/or fbi should immediately release who paid for the information. a former spokesman for the clinton campaign tells "the washington post," the first i learned of christopher sfooel or saw any dossier, was after the election. but if i had gotten ahand hand it, i would have urged people to look into it. the dnc tells nbc, the leadership was not in decisionmaking regarding fusion gps. democrats say it's not about who funded the dossier. it's the allegations in it that need attention.

>> if what christopher steele found proved to be true, we need to know it. >> reporter: as for where this all goes from here, look for the legal battle brewing. fusion gps, the firm that engaged with that british ex-spy, is fighting a southboub issued by the head of the republican intelligence committee on capitol hill. who was the republican group or person who initiated this dossier research? this morning, it's still not clear. matt? savannah? >> hallie jackson on capitol hill. thank you. a lot more in the headlines, including a court appearance for five michigan teenagers charged with murder, in a highway rock throwing incident that killed a young father. blake mccoy has more on this story. >> reporter: instead of going back to high school this morning, the five

remain in jail. a judge denying them bond, after one poor decision that ended with a man dead. kenneth white, a man killed in a teenage prank that took a deadly turn. >> they took away a child's father and the love of my life. his stupid act, took away a life. >> reporter: white's family wiped away tears in court tuesday, as they watched five high school students plead not guilty to second-degree murder. investigators say the teens hurled rocks from this overpass, on to i-75 near flint, michigan, last week. leaving drivers little time to react. >> something came from the windshield and hit her friend. he's now unconscious. >> it's not a prank when you're throwing six-pound rocks at vehicles. >> reporter: this is the baseball-sized rock that struck white in the head and chest. aswa

investigators say the teens went to mcdonald's. kyle anger, who police say threw the deadly rock, turns himself in. the others were arrested. all will be trialed as adults. attorneys for two of the boys spoke after tuesday's court appearance. >> although the charges are the same, the kids are all different. the actions that the kids may have become involved in are all different. >> there's going to be different levels. the culpability of the friends. >> the family hopes the charges stick. >> you have taken his life for nothing. senseless. a big joke to you. this is not a joke. and i hope that justice is brought to the fullest extent to him. >> reporter: the prosecutor doesn't believe these teens s

that's why they're charged with second-degree murder, instead of first. >> blake, thank you. let's turn to mr. roker with a check of the weather. >> we're looking at a tropical investigation area that's it has a 50% chance of develo us. it brings moisture ought the way boston new england and it's helping fire up more it's to be bringing heavy rain, flooding rain from boston we're looking at big airport

for $156 million. i pose a question to all of you. have you considered in a restaurant, in addition to a tip, offering someone words of advice? >> no. >> no? >> people don't want advice from me. >> no? >> i don't think so. >> have you given advice? >> no. but i think sometimes i need advice more than i need money. advice versus sometimes i don't need advice. i just need some cash. >> let's just say you were someone in the service industry. and someone wrote you words, and instead of or alongside a tip, change e gave you words that changed your life. >> i couldn't imagine giving advice. but i could imagine giving enkujmeenku encouragement to somebody. >> if it's feedback or something to make them feel better about

>> a lot of people who work as waiters and waitresses in los angeles want to be actors, right? wouldn't it be nice to hear a piece of advice on how you made it? >> yeah. i don't know. >> in addition -- >> you can be like this, your portrayal of a service who cares -- >> exactly. >> sorry. >> i think cash would be good. >> cash is good, too. >> i think that would be presumptuo presumptuous. >> let's say i'm asking for advice? >> the best piece of advice i got going into this business was by a guy that just fired me, and he wrote turn the other cheek. i hated it at the time. it infuriated me. but it's kind of important in this business. >> willard told me. never give up your day job and always be yourself. >> you know, what piece of advice i love from someone, has nothing to do with work. but they said it and i never

some of you are daydreaming at the table. be right with us. >> there's a book about that. called "the precious present." >> i never knew. >> it's a nice, short book. what's the best piece of advice you ever got? >> i remember my mom and dad telling me at a young age, telling me, the only thing you take to the grave with you is your name. your reputation, and how people speak about you will last forever. >> this started out slow. but at the end -- >> fantastic. >> really good. >> let's end it while it's on top. first up, kate winslet. the star opened up to "variety" on her film "wonder wheel." the film is directed by woody allen. when asked about her decision to work with him, winslet wrote,

i don't read how people respond to things. as actors we're going to say the wrong thing. it's okay to step away from the discussion. she did open up about whether she would work with the former co-star again, leonardo dicaprio. winslet believes the two will work together again. but not for a while. until they're much older. anna faris released her memoir. she opens up about cheating rumors and jealousy between her and chris pratt's relationship. faris said her publicist warned her about the press they would receive. jennifer and i are really friendly. she was apologetic, even though she didn't need to be because she didn't do anything wrong. it's awesome. but it's hurtful and embarrassing. when people say your husband is cheating on you. you feel and look like a fool.

faris and pratt split over the summer. she says the two are good friends. dolly parton and kenny rogers. kenny is kicking off his final tour tonight in nashville. and dolly will be alongside them. dylan dreyer asked them about their relationship. >> why have you never gotten together? why no mixing business with pleasure? >> first of all, she's hard to -- >> i'm not his type. >> i'm a believer that tension is better if you keep it, than if you satisfy it. and certainly, she said no to me. >> we've always been so -- we were almost like brother and sister. it would be like incest. we never went there. >> for more of the interview with the duo, watch "megyn kelly today" coming up in the next hour. that's your "pop

back at home. and that contrast to me. and these guys come back with so much bottled up. and they don't have the vocabulary to express it. >> how did you prepare? did you talk to veterans and really understand where they're coming from? >> yeah, for sure. i tackled it in a couple different ways. i had the two books that david finkle wrote, "good soldiers" and "thank you." they stayed in their homes for nine months when they're in the red zone, the first couple months home. and i watched a lot of youtube, interviews with guys coming back. watched a documentary. met with adam and the soldier i played and talked with vets. and tried to get as much as i could because it's a vulnerable position to be acting like you've been through that. >> can we say

another note? >> oh, yeah? >> you got a dog. >> you have everything. >> wait. >> you got a dog? >> trending. >> a dog. >> wait a minute. >> it's her birthday a week ago. >> can we say one other thing? >> oh, my god. >> you dress the dog up? >> you talked about your parents. and we heard something cool that you did. you paid off their house. >> i paid off the mortgage. that was cool. they set it on fire. they had champagne. and it was nice. that's what it's all about. they sacrificed everything for me. >> all-around good guy. >> they gave you good advice. >> now, dress my dog up in dresses. >> nothing we haven't tried around here. miles, great to see you. >> congratulations on all of it. "thank you for your service," from universal pictures, opens on friday. al, let's do the

unless miles wants to. >> let's just do it. doing all of it today. >> got some rain, some sun, some wind. >> you're a morning [ no >> and that's your latest weather. matt? >> all right, al. thank you very much. now, more of our special series "sisterhood" celebrating that unique bond. >> it's moments from jenna and

>> it's been great sharing the stories we have growing up and the special bond we have as sisters. and we hope our stories inspire all women. from the moment i was born, i had this person who lifted me up. barbara has a huge heart. she was the type of kid that looked after everybody else in our class. and wanted to make sure that everybody was taken care of. she's gentle. he's creative. she's a great artist. and she's brilliant. >> jenna is extremely fun. she makes the most out of everything. she's always been an entertainer. she has a huge imagination. and has loved making people laugh and smile and entertaining them. she makes the most out of any situation. she's made my life extremely fun. and she's very

so many people think they know us because of years of media spotlight or articles written about us. but we felt like the true essence of who we are isn't really out there. we wanted to write our own story. >> we realized how lucky we have been. we've had an extremely incredible life. and always have had a partner to go through it with, because we're twins. we were always encouraged to be very different. >> and we were nourished to do different things. i think we were always going to have different careers. >> i attended the launch of the president's emergency plan for aids relief when i was in my junior summer. at the time, if you were living on africa, you couldn't get access to anti-retroviral drugs, which are the drugs that keep you alive when you're

hiv-positive. i was angered but inspired by seeing people stepping up. i started global health corps in 2009. and now, we've worked with almost 1,000 young leaders. >> before i was working on policy for the u.s. government. >> and i work on a variety of issues, government, labor. >> i'm so proud of barbara. she works tirelessly. she's traveling all the time. i feel low she's making the world a better place. i got to experience a small part of what it was like to train to be an astronaut. >> she's loved people. she's loved entertaining. it's a natural fit for her. and she's great at it. >> she wants it. we would say to mila, we're sisters. we realize how'd lucky we have been to have someone by

and have someone that's had our back throughout our whole lives. >> she's one of the most important people in my life. and she has witnessed all of these milestones. makes me want to cry. i don't know why. >> like our life expanded because of each other. and i hope that poppy and mila have that, as well. >> i think a sister can be a blood sister, like i so luckily have. it can also be a woman in a has your back, that makes you feel like you're good enough. that empowers you to be your best person, to be your best sel self. that laughs with you and cries with you. >> whether it's a blood sister of a friend sister, it's someone who will be alongside you as you go through life. >> my sister does such good work and i don't.
