Its whats left of a bakery, you can see the walls are crumbled in. On top of the building here is what looks like to be an airconditioning unit that came from another building. It was blown this way. The winds were Strong Enough to turn everyday items into projectiles. You can see something smashed out this car window here. The owner of the bakery spent the night inside this vehicle. The winds were also Strong Enough to knock down power lines. You see scenes like this all over the city with transformers and pieces of equipment on the ground. The big easy frightening families with multiple tornados that were wider than the buildings they damaged or destroyed. There were at least five of them reported here in louisiana. Another three in mississippi. This thing comes up on you in a second and within literally seconds you lose everything that you have. Reporter this tornado made a beeline for a facility run by nasa. Another came terribly close to oil refineries. Schools were in a panic with teachers saying prayers for the students as they took shelter in school hallways. People watching interest their windows couldnt believe their eyes. This was for real. A live twister tearing through town. I tried to save everything i can. Reporter families are trying to sift through what they have left. This woman tells us she was in her home when the walls came crumbling down. It was fast. All you can see is, daness, something blowing in the sky and next thing i know im in the bathtub and the roof and the house collapsed. Reporter Storm Chasers with nerves of steel were just 100 yard as way the violent winds reached up to 130 miles an hour and ripped the roof off this building before smashing a pickup truck. People working at this plant are thankful this morning. They watched as a tornado came dangerously close before it tore apart the barn nearby. The governor is declaring a state of emergency.

Yeah, were going bigme wore a spring dress. We are almost 60 then the energy in the atmosphere coming together, two little pieces that will bring us a winter storm anywhere from parts of nebraska up through maine. Winter storm warning, the pink area is what i want you to focus in on, philadelphia, hartford, connecticut, up through boston, that i95 corridor is the area were concerned about. It could become one of our biggest snowstorms if not the biggest of the season. Heres where it starts 6 30 a. M. Philadelphia snowing. Washington, d. C. , you have a wintry mix. New york city, just an awful drive tomorrow morning. Then boston an awful afternoon drive. Snow totals wise could be a wide swath of 5 to 10 inches of snow with this so you have to watch your local abc station, a lot of idiosyncrasies but well talk about this one and maybe not moving a lot tomorrow. Yeah, its the warm before the storm so it looks like you girls will get that snow day they wanted. Still below 50 . Well see. Ill come shovel you guys showdown over President Trumps cabinet nominees. Overnight Democratic Senators making another marathon push. This time protesting attorney general nominee jeff sessions, but republicans are firing back trying to silence senator Elizabeth Warren. Lets go to our Congressional Correspondent mary bruce on capitol hill. Reporter good morning. These tense cabinet battles just got even more contentious. Democrats here are still at it this morning trying to derail yet another cabinet nominee. Now, Elizabeth Warren was about 45 minutes into her lengthy remarks when republicans told her to knock it off and zip it. Overnight showdown on the senate floor. So can i continue . Reporter massachusetts senator Elizabeth Warren delivering a late night speech opposing attorney general nominee jeff sessions. Quoting Martin Luther kings widow, Coretta Scott king. Coretta scott king also wrote to the Judiciary Committee about mr. Sessions has used the awesome power of his office to chill the free exercise of the vote by black citizens in the district he now seeks to serve as a federal judge. Reporter but in an extraordinarily rare move Senate Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell leading a party line rebuke. I call the north to order under rule 19. Reporter arcane rule preventing senators from maligning colleagues on the senate floor voting to silence warren. Its heard. The senator will take her seat. Reporter the letlizspeak trending overnight. Instead, warren reading her speech live on facebook. Senator Mitch Mcconnell and the republicans came to the floor to shut me down for reading reporter so far 6 of 21 cabinet nominees have been confirmed. The latest betsy devos for education secretary but it took the Vice President called in to cast that tiebreaking vote. George. Okay, mary, thanks very much. Lets get more from our senior White House Correspondent cecilia vega. And any word from the white house on what happened to senator warren last night . We know the president is irtayed by how slow his nominees are getting confirmed. Reporter he certainly is irritated, george. No word on what happenedover night with Elizabeth Warren but take a look at what the president did tweet out about the cabinet. He said it is a disgrace that my full cabinet is still not in place. The longest such delay in the history of our country. Heres the problem, though, george, that is not true. President obamas full cabinet was not in place at this point either. What is true is that President Trump has more unconfirmed cabinet posts at this point than all other previous president s combined. Much more stark false claims from the president , this time about crime with the meeting with sheriffs. The murder rate is the right . Did you know that . Because the press doesnt tell it like it is. The press doesnt say it because its not true. Reporter thats not true either, george. We pulled crime stats from the fbi. You can see right there the murder rate hit a high decades ago. It is nowhere near the highest at this point. Kellyanne conway, the chief counselor to the president , was pressed on this yesterday. She said she would talk to him about these numbers, that she didnt know where and who gave him these numbers. But, george, as you know, this is not the first time the president has made this claim and talked about this murder rate he says is the highest on the campaign trail also. Okay, cecilia vega, thanks very much. George, President Trump also facing a legal showdown over his travel ban. Lawyers for the Justice Department and opponents to the ban facing off last night in a federal court hearing. Abcs chief White House Correspondent jon karl has the latest on that for us. Good morning, jon. Reporter good morning, robin. A decision on whether to reinstate the president s travel ban immediately could come as soon as today. But the legal battle over whether or not the ban the constitution has just begun. The fate of President Trumps travel ban is now up to the courts. A legal battle the president acknowledged could go all the way to the supreme court. Well see. Hopefully it doesnt have to. Its common sense. You know, some things are law and im all in favor of that. Some things are common sense. This is common sense. Reporter overnight the Trump Legal Team challenged the district judge who put the travel ban on hold. Insisting theres no evidence the president s executive order violates the constitution. It is extraordinary for a court to enjoin the president S National Security determination based on some newspaper articles and thats what has happened here. Reporter the lawyer for Washington State which had challenged the ban argued the president s action was not only unconstitutional, but damaging. Whats the irrepresent recall harm to the state . We had students and faculty at our state universities who were stranded overseas. Reporter the white house says the president will accept th theres no question the president expects the executive branch. Reporter days ago the president attacked the federal judge who put it on hold calling him a socalled judge and tweeting just cannot believe a judge would put our country in such peril. If something happen, blame him and the court system. On tuesday, Homeland Security secretary john kelly echoed the president s warning that pausing the ban puts american lives in danger. Its entirely possible that someone thats coming in, whether its during this stage or in the court action or previous to this period, will do us harm. You dont have any proof at this point . Not until the boom. Not until what. Not until they act and blow something up or go into a mall and kill people. So we wont know until then. Reporter at last nights hearing the judges appeared skeptical of the white houses argument. In fact, george, at one point the white houses lawyer quote, im not sure im convincing the court. He told that to the judges. Yeah, that was something. Jon karl, thanks so much. Lets talk to dan abrams about that. You always have to be careful about reaching conclusions from the questions but that was a pretty stunning concession. It was and its true that you cant tell what theyre going to do because they were tough on both sides, right . They intentionally asked provocative questions on both sides but those of us who watch these things still read the tea leaves sometimes incorrectly an i think what we saw from this is i think it is unlikely that they are going to overturn the temporary restraining order, meaning only thing at issue. Correct. As a practical matter most people believe that the current halt on it which is just temporary will continue to stay in existence. But then you get to the underlying question on the overall executive order and there were a lot of questions from the lawyers about and from the judges about whether or not there was discriminatory intent, whether the intent of the order was to discriminate against muslims. Tougher on the washington solicitor general there, because there the judges seem much more skeptical of the argument that this was a muslim ban and they were asking some very hard questions about that. The problem for the administration is thats not the only argument against the law. So even if you say, lets write off the muslim ban argument, theres still a number of statutory arguments, constitutional arguments et cetera. I want to get to that. The president weighed in and said if the u. S. Does not win this case we can never have the security and safety to which we are entitled. Added, politics but as a matter of law he has wide berth in National Security. Very wide berth in Immigration Law in particular. When it comes to immigration and National Security, the president does have wide latitude and in the end probably will be able to enact some sort of executive order very close to what hes got here. The question is just the details which is going to become criticalnd going to be also how much compromise are they willing to do. Dan abrams, thanks very much. George, we move from politics to the mysterious death of a Young American woman on vacation traveling alone in panama when she disappeared. Her body found days later on a hiking trail. Abcs gio benitez joins us with the latest on this. So, gio, what are officials saying this morning. Good morning. Were learning investigators have been conducting raids in panama to figure out how this young woman lost her life. The fbi even offering to help local authorities. But right now that question how did a vacation end in death . This morning, a mystery on a tiny panamanian island. A globetrotting 23yearold from new york Catherine Johannet found dead in paradise. She was visiting an explorary dream, and it shows pristine beaches and posting on instagram from one a week ago. When she didnt return from a solo day trip to a nearby island thursday, she was reporte missing. After three days of searching a Police Officer found her body along a hiking trail. Her family seen here arriving from the u. S. Monday to identify her body. Im going to guess based on the reaction of the panamanians that this probably is theres some wrongdoing going on here someplace in this case and it may well be a murder. Reporter now investigators are racing to determine whether there was foul play. Authorities awaiting autopsy results before declaring this a criminal investigation. The fbi now standing by to help with a possible investigation. Is there anything at the scene where she was found that would help identify a potential suspect, and then obviously were there any witnesses in proximity . Reporter now johannets sister writing on facebook, my family is thinking of all our beautiful memories with our laughing, adventurous, warm little girl. And this morning the state department has issued a statement saying it will continue to work closely panamanian officials, no doubt we will keep following this developing story, michael. All right, thank you, gio. And turning now to the big super bowl celebration.

And, you know, high school games, only last 32 minutes. How is that possible . I dont know. Lack of defense. 92 points in 32 minutes. Hey. Pass a little more next time. I would say so. Coming up moving on to that legal win formen trump. She scored a victory against a blogger who falsely claimed she once worked as an escort filing a 150 million lawsuit against the daily mail for publishing similar allegations. Tom llamas has the details. Reporter this is uncharted territory for the office of the first lady suing a medial organization but mrs. Trumps lawyer argue those scandalous n unproven allegations hurt future endorsement deals. This morning, the first lady fighting hard to protect not only her reputation brand. Lawyers for Melania Trump refiling a lawsuit against the daily mail online seeking damages worth more than 150 million. Shes suing the news website for publishing a now retracted report containing unsubstance yachted allegations that the Modeling Agency melania worked for doubled as an escort service. I didnt expect media would be so dishonest and so mean. I didnt expect that. Also for me from the beginning i never had one correct story, one honest story. Reporter according to the suit, that false report damaged mrs. Trumps licensing, marketing and endorsement opportunities. The suit also states the daily mail story couldnt have come at a worse time because mrs. Trump had the unique once in a lifetime opportunity to launch a broadbased commercial brand in multiple product categories, each of which could have garnered multimillion dollar business relationships for a multiyear term during which plaintiff is one of the most photographed women in the world. Im honored to be your first lady. Reporter so, are Melania Trumps lawyers arguing that false report limited how much she could profit off the presidency . Mrs. Trumps spokeswoman insists shes not trying to cash in on her new life. Telling abc news, she was not trying to make money from her role as first lady. Its just kind of fueling the flames of all this discussion about possible conflicts of interest in the new trump white house. Reporter now the first lady already has one legal victory. Sued a maryland blogger Webster Tarpley who published similar allegations to the ones by the daily mail online and she settled on tuesday, tarpley publicly apologizing to the first lady, mrs. Trumps at pay her a substantial sum as a settlement. Dan abrams, back to talk about this more. That settlement, a victory for the first lady but you think she and her lawyers made a mistake by pushing this. As a legal matter they did the right thing talking about the damages. You have to be able to say why there would be substantial damages. And yet when youre talking about the first lady, its a very different story. You cant go and say, oh, its a once in a lifetime opportunity for her to make a lot of money and then they say, wait, we didnt mean with regard to the white house. Well, then what did you mean . Of course thats what they meant when they made this argument. So, its a lawyer making a smart legal argument and not thinking about what would be the political and Public Relations fallout. It appears it wasnt even perhaps passed by white house counsel. I think this was just a mistake. Meaning, again, legally sound, but politically in pr a disaster. This not shes got this great opportunity, once in a lifetime to make all this money by creatingll these products. It has to mean as first lady. I dont understand how it could mean anything else. Another potential conflict of interest cropping up. Turns out the pentagon may be renting space at trump tower here in new york. And theres something that almost no one is talking about and this is another emoluments clause in the constitution. We talked about this before, this idea of foreign dignitary, princes, et cetera, come here and somehow stay at a trump hotel or something that could violate the constitution. What almost no one is talking about is there is also a domestic reference to emoluments when talking about the president s pay, it specifically says in another article in the constitution that thats all the president is supposed to get. The president should not get any other emolument of any other kind so i think there will be arguments suggesting the president is getting additional emoluments through tax breaks or this sort of rent or that has just begun. Dan abrams, thanks very much. All right there, george. Coming up in just two minutes that frat party mystery. A 19yearold dying after falling down the stairs.

The 19yearold dying after falling down a flight of stairs at a frat party and it may have been close to 12 hours before anyone called for help. Abcs eva pilgrim is there at penn state. Has the latest on the investigation. Good morning, eva. Reporter good morning, robin. A lot of questions this morning about what happened inside this Fraternity House and how a student ended up dead. This morning, police are investigating the death of a penn state student bottom of the stairs in this campus Fraternity House. Just before 11 00 a. M. Friday ems responding to a 911 call from beta theta pi. They find 19yearold Timothy Piazza unconscious, injured but alive. Rushing him to the hospital where he dies a day later. Fraternity members tell police the sophomore fell down the basement steps around 11 00 p. M. During 12 hours earlier during a party. An autopsy revealing he had multiple traumatic injuries that the coroner believes were caused by the fall, noting he had alcohol in his system. While the coroner believes the death was accidental, whats not clear is why no one called for help until the following morning. Fraternity members are cooperating and were in the process of obtaining video from inside the fraternity and we are working closely with Pennsylvania Office of student affairs. Reporter this morning, piazzas family is remembering the engineering major and his brother mike writing on facebook, his sole mission in life was to make other people smile. This latest death at penn state eerily similar to another in 2009, 18yearold joe dotto, found dead at the bottom of a campus stairwell of a night of drinking. His death was ruled accidental. And the university temporarily suspending beta as they investigate. The fraternity says theyre hopeful that security cameras inside the house will shed some light on exactly what happened. Robin. Oh, yes, eva, thank you. Joining us now is sunny hostin. Tough to talk about a story like this. Your heart goes out to that family of the young man. Under what circumstances could the Fraternity Members be held responsible in some way for the delay in contacting authorities . Well, i think we dont know enough because perhaps its been ruled an dent and perhaps they didnt see him at the bottom of the stairs for 12 hours and when they saw him they called. Case, robin is that this is not a oneoff. We had this happen in 2009 at the same university and i did some Research Last night. And do you know that since 2005, on college campuses, 60 kids have died under similar circumstances. Heres a graphic. It shows that, you know, you talk about hazing and you think these are hazing related deaths. That is a small percentage. 60 kids have died in this way and so is the Fraternity Liable . Very, very possible. There was underage drinking going on and certainly if the fraternity gave this kid alcohol knowingly that he was a minor theres a problem there, as well but what was shocking to me is that this is not that unusual. Because when you hear frat house you automatically think hazing which does not appear to be the case here. Exactly. But when were talking about all these various case, schools all across the country, where do College Officials what role do they play. Do a duty to protect these kids and the courts have sort of been all over the place, but the bottom line is i think so. I think colleges are going to be held responsible. Important conversation to have. Well check you out on the view today. Ill be there. Michael. Thank you, robin. Coming up on our big board, will these supersize crash test dummies make us safety . David kerley is here to let us know with a live demonstration. Plus, could you already have hearing loss and not even know it . Dr. Besser is here.

And were going to get to his story in just a moment. But first, crash test dummies packing on the pounds, a detroit firm working with researchers at the university of michigan developing new larger models to better reflect a growing american how to put it. Thats a nice way to put it. David kerley is here with us. Hes at the test site actually right now and one of the test dummies is 100 pounds heavier than the previous design and i think we pretty much know why, david. Reporter yeah, you actually probably do, robin fshlth because weve been changing these are the dummies weve used for 50 years now. You see them in cars being crashed all the time. Heres the workhorse. This is the 50 percentile dummy. 50 of men were like this about 50 years ago back in 1970 but we have put on some weight. Look 59 these numbers. In the last 50 years the average man has put on 21 pounds. The average woman has added 20 pounds so this company is working on an obese dummy which russ go going to get set up for this test there working with the university of michigan on elderly dummies too because of the aging population and driving and thats a real problem so russ, lets pull up the pendulum and test this. The idea is these dummies will be in the cars that you see crash by all the crash test folks including carmakers as well and let this go ahead and come on up to give you a sense of whether or not this dummy can withstand what were about ready to throw at him. Dont get in front of that. Get away. Also, david, i read where, you know, if youre a little larger because of the seat belts you slide under the seat belts because of the weight that people have added over the years. Reporter right. Im going to show you that in just a second, michael. But as this pendulum gets up to the top here, what we want to talk about is whether or not this dummy is ready to go into a car. So what the company is doing is trying to certify this dummy, does he provide the kind of data and information you need to get by. Here we go, three, two, one, go. Oh. So does the obese dummy have a name, russ . It does not . We dont have a name for him but he got pushed back significantly. Lets show you in slow motion what that looks like, what an impact would be like in a vehicle. Heres the slow motion version of what just happened to an obese dummy here. You can learn so much through that. Now, right, michael mentioned submarining. A real problem because the weight has come down in obese and elderly folks, the pelvis area has more weight and now take a look at this vehicle. This is what happens when somebody in a crash and goes underneath the restraints, thats called submarining. Theyre hoping these dummies, the elderly and obese may help us fix that in the long run. Thank your friend there. That was a very dramatic way of letting us know what could possibly happen. Wow. Thank you. I know you approve of that, dr. Besser. Yeah. These new guices. So very few are so important to know for planes, buses, not just cars. Just added the weight to the dummies now. Im glad that they did. Both are. And next up, you might think you have good or excellent hearing. But a troubling new report finds that one in four American Adults who assume theyre okay actually suffer from hearing loss and dr. Besser, thats what youre here to talk about. Youre the former head of the cdc. What does this tell us. It tells us noiseinduced hearing loss is very common. 40 million adults under the age of 70 have problems with their hearing because of noise. And half of them dont have noisy jobs so theyre getting it from everything theyre doing throughout their life. I know you would think because you being in football stadiums and always around the noise, its noise and i found through my chemotherapy through my treatment it led to im surprised by that. 40 million doesnt even include people who have hearing loss from other reasons. You got a device here. So, this is a decibel meter and what this does is measures the loudness of sounds around us and what you need to worry about is any level thats above 85. The longer youre exposed to that the more there is as a risk so we took this out and about to see what kind of noises people are exposed to. This first one here, this is at a basketball game. And at this basketball game theyre getting a level above 90. At that level two hours at that level can cause hearing damage. Wow. You were in stadiums for hours and hours exposed to some stadiums you cant hear yourself think. This next one is a blender. People have that in their homes. This hit levels in the 100s. 14 minutes at that level, that can cause damage and our last one is our audience. Take a look upstairs. When they go wild and excited about whats going on there, we hit 110. At 110 two minutes at that level very dangerous. What i was disappointed about, not just losing my hearing but you cant get it back. You can there are things that can be done to slow it down but you cant recoup. Once those cells are dead theres nothing you can do. You want to wear Hearing Protection but other things, never turn up your music to drown out noises around you. That is one way you can damage your hearing. If youre a parent, watch your kids. I can hear music coming out of the headphones. We dont want to deter our audience from being loud.

They call it pregnancy mask and, ginger, system wonderful that you are sharing the experience that youve had with it. Yes, because theres hope and i think thats the whole part. I felt like alicia keys was going makeupless. I want to do that. You have to know that 5 million americans are dealing with this and its basically just blotchy skin. After i had adrian i totally to your old skin too. Take a look. I want to show you something. This is how you see me every morning for Good Morning America. Spackled with makeup but underneath im hiding discolored skin. Its called melasma. Melasma is a condition that can affect up to 70 of pregnant women. Its triggered by hormones causing blotchy dark patches particularly on the forehead, cheeks and upper lip. After i had my little guy i noticed my face became far from even. So i went to dermatologist whitney bowe. Dark here and dark here. To get my prebaby complexion back. I thought i would come in and get laser. That is not rue . Actually the heat and the light from lasers can make melasma worse. Its almost impossible to cure it. We can make this dramatically better. But its going to take time. Were going to have you put your chin here. She scanned my face with this visia to look deep below. That will be pretty stubborn gentle chemical peel. Its not terribly uncomfortable and theres no down time. There shouldnt be any real peeling. So a lot of people think a peel isnt a peel. Yes.

All i wanted was to be able to walk out and be makeupfree and now i feel like i can do that. Yes, so im almost done taking the makeup off. I truly feel comfortable and its a nice feeling. I think a lot of folks feel this way. It doesnt mean you had a baby. A lot of women, tons six months ago you would not have no, i would have been big chunks and it made almost this part whiter and this part dark enand just felt uncomfortable. You feel uncomfortable after a baby a lot of times. Lets bring in your doctor, Board Certified dermatologist dr. Whitney bowe, ladies and gentlemen. [ applause ] how are you . My goodness. You know, when people hear chemical peel, you said the same thing, uh the chemical peels i use for melasma take a few minutes and theres little to no down time. So basically what i do is a take a very, very mild acidic solution and, you know, the ingredients are in will vary over the course of the treatment and then i literally just coat or paint do you mind. No, go for it. I coat or paint a very light coat on any Burning Sensation . Its so minimal. I was so surprised. I thought it was going to be like a horror show skin falling off in chunks. It really feels like lotion going on then, about five minutes but very minimal and then you feel fine. I put on makeup again and did rachael ray right after. She came and a couple hours later was on camera. I thought i was going to get lasers all over. Its very simple. A lot of myths out there so why dont you bust some. There are. If you google Home Remedies for melasma you will find pages that list lemon juice as a key ingredient and that is a myth. Dont do it. Citrus fruits can make it so much worse. Another myth. People think the more powerful the laser, the deeper the chemical peel, the faster the results but actually the opposite is true. You know, that heat, that irritation, it can really set you back. And this took months. You have to have patience before you can get clear he skin. Ginger will be the first to tell you she is very fortunate that she had you to help her get her through that. Theres some people who dont have that. So what can they do at home to get results. You can fight overthecounter products, on almost any budget. You have to know what to look for. Creams, lotions or serums that contain brightening ingredients like vitamin c, kojic acid, licorice or soy. You have to be patient when it comes to melasma, slow and steady wins the race. Thats what everybody i posted this last week and i had so many people respond. Please help me. You know, i cant have the expensive chemical peels but using these over time will help and the most important and this is what shes got me into, you hear it so much wearing a hat in the sun.
