A lot of important story, republicans pushing to repeal obamacare. Whether preexisting conditions are covered is the big sticking point. The president is scheduled to speak with Vladimir Putin this afternoon. Their third conversation since Trump Took Office as the situation with north korea is growing more tense the u. S. Missile Defense System is up and running in north korea. This comes as the north Korean Leader ramps up the war of words and issues a new threat. To our chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz for more on that. Good morning, martha. Reporter good morning, robin. This morning both sides ramping up the tensions, the u. S. Sending b1 bombers across north korea as part of a Training Exercise and that antimissile system is now fully operational. Overnight, the north korean state run media with a dramatic response to those b1 exercises saying the reckless military provocation is pushing the brink of nuclear war. Nobody is safe. I mean, who is safe . The guys got nuclear weapons. If he gets the longrange missiles were not safe either. So, we have to do something about it and well see what happens. Reporter but despite that warning the president has not ruled out a facetoface meeting with the brutal north korean dictator going so far as to say it would be an honor if it would be appropriate for me to meet with him, President Trump told bloomberg, i would absolutely. I would be honored to do it abcs jon karl pressing the white house on those comments. This is somebody who has starved his own people, somebody that has threatened to destroy the united states. How could he be honored to meet with kim jongun . Well, the president understands the threat that north korea poses and he will do whatever is necessary under the right circumstances to protect our country from the threat that they pose. Hes still the head of state. So it is sort of there is a dimmick piece to this. Reporter but the president s evidence that north korea may be stepping up its submarine based missile testing and has warned it will increase the speed of its Nuclear Tests to a maximum pace. The North Koreans still have not yet conducted that sixth nuclear test but it could happen at any time. Meanwhile, President Trump will talk by phone with russias Vladimir Putin today. Their third conversation as we said since president Trump Took Office. George. Okay, martha, thanks very much. The latest on President Trumps push to repeal obamacare. White house is optimistic but republicans in the house not yet ready to call a vote. The big stumbling block, coverage for preexisting conditions and at what cost. Our Congressional Correspondent mary bruce is on capitol hill and, pear, the president is confusing comments on this issue, have complicated the vote count. Reporter yeah, george, good morning. House republicans have never been closing to repealing and replacing obamacare but now the president is sending some mixed messages. He insists the current house gop bill will protect people with preexisting conditions. Its one of the few obamacare provisions hes promised to keep, but the current house bill, its not clear if it would actually keep that promise from the president. In order to gain the support of ultra conservative, republicans made changes that could undermine protections for people with these conditions. The American Medical Association now saying the plan could effectively make coverage completely unaffordable to people with preexisting conditions. And, mary, the House Republicans, the speaker says he wont call a vote until hes sure he has the votes and theyre right on the bubble. Reporter the white house suggests theyre almost there but there is still no vote scheduled here and House Republican leaders unlike last time say they will not call for a vote until theyre sure they have the support to get this done. This is likely to be close. Really close. By our latest count at least 20 republicans say they oppose the current plan. That means just two more no votes could sink the bill and even if it does pass here in the house it still faces a huge uphill battle over in the senate. George, this fight over. Long road to go. Mary bruce, thanks very much. All right, george, now to the white house appearing to target both the former administration and big banks. Our senior White House Correspondent cecilia vega joins us now and cecilia, lets start with the Trump Administration takes steps to roll back Michelle Obamas Healthy Food Initiative for kids. Reporter yeah, this is coming from the new agriculture secretary, sonny perdue. He says students essentially arent eating the food. They dont like it. Cafeterias in schools have complainted it so, hence, these changes. They would relax whole grain requirements. They allow 1 fat flavored milk back foo School Cafeterias and then they relax the sodium limits meaning that the limbs stay where they are. They dont go down over time as they would have under Michelle Obamas plan. These rules take effect in the next school year, sonny perdue says this isnt essentially about rolling back Michelle Obamas plan, robin. They say this is about slowing that process down. And, cecilia, another policy President Trump saying he wants to break up the big banks. Reporter he did. He told this to bloomberg news. He says this is something that he is looking into right now. Now, this shouldnt come as a big surprise here. This is something that the president talked a lot about on the campaign trail. Nonetheless, the reaction from wall street yesterday was swift. Right after the president made these comments, stocks took a dive but, robin, they did quickly bounce back after these comments. They are back. All right, cecilia, thank you. The president says hes looking to a gas tax as well. Turning to may day protests that turned violent at home and around the world. Police set on fire in paris and Pierre Thomas tracking all of it. Good morning. Reporter good morning. Those mostly peaceful protests involving thousands across the country on may day turned violent in the northwest with what Police Called a riot in portland, oregon. And nine officers injured in downtown olympia, washington. As many as 100 protesters clashed with police in those two and bottles being thrown and fires set. A number of businesses were damaged as well. In all at least 34 people were arrested with some in portland wearing black bandannas described as anarchists. Those small pockets marred Peaceful Demonstrations with marchers protesting the immigration and labor policies. The protests in paris days ahead of their president ial election. Pierre thomas, thanks. Now to South Carolina and a major update in the walter scott case. Former Police Officer Michael Slager is expected in court as soon as today he will face charges in scotts 2015 shooting death. Abcs Steve Osunsami is in charleston for us this morning. Good morning, steve. Reporter good morning, robin. We were expecting this week to be in front of federal Court Reporting on slagers federal trial. But instead were learning from government officials familiar with the case that he has come to an agreement with prosecutors. A major reversal is expected this morning from the white former camera shooting an unarmed black man in the back in north charleston, South Carolina. For nearly two years now 35yearold Michael Slager has claimed that he was just doing his job and that he shot and killed 51yearold walter scott because he says scott was a threat to his safety even at this significant distance away. I fired until the threat was stopped like im trained to do. Reporter but according to an official briefed on the matter, slager is now expected to plead guilty to charges in federal court. His dramatic state trial on murder and manslaughter charges ended in a hung jury. At the time slagers attorney argued that the scott should never have run from the traffic stop and that a violent struggle took place before the shooting that wasnt recorded. Dont make an example of Michael Slager. Dont let that happen. Reporter the victims mother promised she would see justice one day. Its not over. Yall hear me. Its not over. Till god say its over. Reporter it appears that day has come. Slager was scheduled to be tried again in state court this summer but a plea agreement here and serious jail time could change things. We dont know to what charges he will plead. The state prosecutor still has to determine if she will move forward with her case. Robin. Okay, well wait and see that. Steve, thank you. All right, robin, thousand to big changes that could be coming to the way you fly. Top Airline Executives are testifying about passengers experiences on capitol hill this morning.

The comedian trying to hold back tears last night as he told viewers billy had to have emergency open heart surgery. T. J. Holmes is here as and has that story. Very scary for any parent. Reporter yeah, ten finger, ten toe, every parents rudimentary check of the initial health of their newborn. Everything looked fine with Jimmy Kimmels son initially but it wasnt long before the kid was leaving the hospital, not going home but going to another hospital for heart surgery. Jimmy kimmel told this story in excruciating detail last night and the guy we turn to for laughs had us all crying last night. I have a story to tell about something that happened to our family last week. Im sorry. Reporter jimmy kimmel couldnt hold back. Tearfully recounti billy was born. And he appeared to be a normal healthy baby until about three hours after he was born and moved to the recovery room. When a very attentive nurse at cedarssinai hospital, her name is nanoosh, was checking him out and heard a murmur in his heart which is common with newborn babies but noticed he was a bit purple, which is not common. They did an echocardiogram which is a sonogram of the heart and found that billy was born with a heart disease, something called tetralogy of fallot with pulmonary atresia. Its hard to explain, basically the pulmonary valve was completely blocked and he has a hole in the wall between the left and right sides of his heart. We put the baby in an ambulance to Childrens Hospital los angeles and on monday morning dr. Starnes opened his chest and fixed one of the two defects and the operation was a success. It was the longest three hours in my life. So this poor kid, this is what he looked like on monday. But this is what he looked like yesterday. [ applause ] poor kid, not only de get a bad heart, he got my face. Six days after open heart surgery we got to bring him home which is amazing. Hes doing great. Hes eating, hes sleeping. He peed on his mother while she changed his diaper. Reporter the new dad offers his hopes for the future. I saw a lot of families there and no parent should ever have to decide if they can afford to save their childs life. It just shouldnt happen. Not here, so anyway, thank you for listening. I promise im not going to cry for the rest of the show. Please say a prayer for or send positive thoughts to the fa still in the hospital now because they need it. Reporter but, of course, whats a kimmel story without matt damon. Even that son of a [ bleep ] sent something. Reporter now, of course, kimmel there, he announced last year on the same day that he announced he was doing the oscars he announce his wife as pregnant. Shes a head writer on the show with him for the oscars and i was out there talking to him for the oscars and all the time off camera we spent talking about kids so it was painful to see him go through that but you heard the humor and said for sure hes getting a vasectomy after this. He is not going through any more stress of any more kids. All right, t. J. , our senior medical contributor dr. Jennifer ashton is here. You delivered 1500 baby he is and an emergency proceed shire like this. It definitely happen, robin. This particular is called a congenital heart defect. A lot of times these are picked up on prenatal ultrasounds and in that case you would do an induction for delivery, a controlled elective delivery so you have neonatal and surgical teams ready to go. Other times like this one these findings present in the immediate postpartum poured either in the delivery room or soon thereafter with a baby who is not oxygenating well and in that case transferred to a Major Academic Medical Center with very high level pediatric surgical teams and nursing care is necessary. And we have to remember, how complex this surgery is, robin. This is the size of a newborn heart. Its the size of a walnut and youre talking about arteries and veins in a newborn that in some cases are smaller than a strand of angel hair pasta. So great that the nurse and ive often said about nurse, they are just so aware of whats going on and she was the one who alerted everyone. Exactly. Billy is home. Thats great. What is the Recovery Time . Its going to vary based on what kind of defect or surgical problem the newborn faced. Sometimes babies will spend day or weeks in the neofatal icu, sometimes months or staged or sequential operations are needed especially when youre talking about congenital Heart Defects but one thing any parent nurses or doctor know, kids, babies, incredibly resilient and recover really well. We saw sean white on the show. He had procedures like this and everything has gone well. Over 35,000 cases in the year every year of congenital Heart Defects and many, many of those people go on to lead very, very normal lives. Will they need followup . Absolutely but normal lives and people like shaun white leading the way for everyone, absolutely possible. I loved how jimmy ended by talking about all those parents who were in the hospital with their children right now. We have to keep them in mind. Absolutely. Thank you, jen. George. Coming up in just two minutes that big shakeup at fox ne news. In our almondmilk. And were proud of that. But the whole careandnurturing part . That idea. We borrowed from the experts. Blue diamond almond breeze. The best almonds make the best almondmilk. Now to that new fallout at fox news. Bill shine out in the wake of those harassment and discrimination suits. He is accused of covering up for roger ailes and Mara Schiavocampo at fox news headquarters with the details. Good morning, mara. Reporter george, good morning. Shine was hailed as one of the most powerful people in media but now hes out of a job. The latest major shakeup at the network leaving many to wonder if sean hannity may be the next one out the door. I want to welcome all of our friends from the propaganda media. I kind of suspect may be tuning in tonight. Reporter overnight sean hannity, one of foxs last standing stars speaking out after rumors took off that he might be the next fox host to leave the network. All the lies youve heard about me are not true. Reporter this morning fox is a quickly changing channel. In the last year the Network Losing almost all of its biggest stars. Caution, you are about to enter the no spin zone. Reporter including bill oreilly. Often around this time of year i grab vacation. Reporter megyn kelly. Greta van susteren and top boss roger ailes. Now another major shakeup in the executive ranks. In an internal memo Rupert Murdoch announcing fox news copresident bill shine resigned. Shine, one of roger ailes top lieutenants helped build the network from day one overseeing foxs fiery talent. So close to sean hannity the host tweeted his strong support last week responding to rumors shine could be the next casualty of the networks growing Sexual Harassment and discrimination lawsuit scandals writing, i pray this is not true because about it is, thats the total end of the knox news channel as we know it. Those are fighting words from hannity and i would not be surprised if he negotiated his exit over the next week or show. Reporter but shine has been characterized as an enabler by culture at fox news that allegedly includes sexism, racism and misogyny named as a defendant in a Sexual Harassment lawsuit against fox news and roger ailes and others filed by former host Andrea Tantaros where she called the network a sexfueled playboy mansion lime cult and when she complained of his advances shine told tantaros that ailes was a very powerful man and that tantaros needed to let this one go. Shine denies any wrongdoing. Now, fox is now facing at least six Sexual Harassment or discrimination lawsuits and they paid out more than 5 million reeled to Sexual Harassment allegations. Theyve now promoted a woman to the top spot, but Suzanne Scott is also named in at least one lawsuit. George. Okay, mara, thanks very much. Lets talk to dan abrams and Rebecca Jarvis and, dan, let me begin with you. You just heard mara say six lawsuits are still out there. Pretty clear the Murdoch Family is cleanin will it help them fend against these lawsuits. Not a lot. I think that the lawsuits will still maintain that anyone who wants to sort of point the finger at bill shine will say he was still promoted after roger ailes left the network. Can it help them from a sort of Bigger Picture . Yeah, it can help them say weve taken real action here but i think when it comes to the courtroom its not going to make that much of a difference. Youve seen all of these big changes on air and now behind the scenes as well. The question is what is it going to mean for the fox brand and business. What do these people who have recently left, roger ailes, bill oreilly and bill shine, what do they do next . Do they go off and create something else. Fox news has a virtual monopoly on that conservative cable space and as these individuals leave, the question becomes do they create a competitive product . You run the website mediaite and you guys have been reporting sean hannity could negotiate on going to another network. The site is reporting that there is actively going on amongst conservative people with significant amounts of assets and Cable Networks that currently exist that they could literally take over. So were not talking about the idea of sort of building up a network and trying to get distribution, what theyre talking about is taking over one that currently exists and basically then starting within a year a competitor to fox news and in particular they feel that there can be a competitor from the right that fox is moving too far to the center and that they can have a real place and sean hannity is definitely one of the people theyd have their eye often. After his contract may have an out. It looks like a lot of individuals had a clause where if the bill shines and roger ailes of the world left they had an out in their deal. Rebecca and dan, thanks very much. Over to michael. Thank you, george. Coming up on our big board a major air scare. A dozen sent to the hospital after severe turbulence including a 1yearold.

The uncertainties of hep c. Wondering, what if . I let go of all those feelings. Because i am cured with harvoni. Harvoni is a revolutionary treatment for the most common type of chronic hepatitis c. Its been prescribed to more than a quarter million people. And is proven to cure up to 99 of patients who have had no prior treatment with 12 weeks. Certain patients can be cured with just 8 weeks of harvoni. Before starting harvoni, your doctor will test to see if youve ever had hepatitis b, which may flare up and cause serious liver problems during and after harvoni treatment. Tell your doctor if youve ever had hepatitis b, a liver transplant, other liver or kidney problems, hiv or any other medical conditions and about all the medicines you take including herbal supplements.

Back now with our big board and Donny Deutsch is here. We have his story in just a moment. Well start with this one right now. Terrifying incident in the sky. 27 people hospitalized after a flight from moscow to bangkok hit severe turbulence on monday. The Russian Embassy confirms a 1yearold was among those injured. Now the Big Questions about how safe little ones are on planes. Nick watt joins us from hollywood, california. Safety officials have been looking into it. What are they finding out, nick . Reporter robin, what theyre finding out is frankly terrifying. Its totally legal to hold a kid under 2 years of age on your lap. Ive done it countless times but think about it, if theres turbulence or heaven forbid the crash the gforce will turn that 25p projectile and however strong you think you are, you are not going to be able to keep ahold of that kid so tuck it inside your own seat belt. Well then something bad happens youll squash that kid between you and the belt, also a terrible option. Now, nick, what are some of the options parents have when they are flying with their kids that they can keep their kids as safe as they are . Reporter well, michael, the ntsb says the best thing is to get your child a seat but that is going to cost you money. Now, on an international flight, you will get a discount. Domestically maybe call the airline, employed the safety angle, beg for a discount. If you get the seat, you can buy one of these thing, its a little harness that keeps a slightly older child in his seat or best case, bring your car seat on board. This facing forward for a slightly older kid, that one facing back for the under 2yearold but put it next to the window so if there is an emergency, its not going to get in the way when other people are sc that makes perfect sense with the car seat. You cant leave with a newborn from the hospital without one so why not have one on a flight . Reporter robin, that law is not going to change any time soon people say. The faa made this point a couple of years ago. They said, listen, if parents are forced to buy a seat for their infant, maybe theyre going to drive instead of fly to save money and more people die on the roads than die in the air. Thats true. Thanks, nick. Thank you for the great advice and next up, the reason Donny Deutsch is here. Well talk to him about mcdonalds upping the stakes in the Burger Battle with their new signature crafted sandwiches. A line of premium menu items that emphasize quality ingredients. Now the move comes as upscale competitors get more popular and, donny, why this decision and why is mcdonalds rolling this out right now. Its interesting. Mcdonalds, isnt referred to fast food anymore but quick serve. Theyre under sge shake shack that have a more upscale product so mcdonalds wants to get in the game. The very thing that made them successful is value and so you dont go to a place for value at the same time where you go for the best burger. Theyre kind of counterintuitive. You go there for the dollar meal. You have to stick to who you are but youre kind of missing this new wave. I love that dollar menu. That was good stuff. Hey, tommy, can you bring out some burgers and put them next to michael. Robin. I think there was a do you think this is going to work, donny. Marginally.

Of pushing the Korean Peninsula to the brink of nuclear war. The north says a training drill involving u. S. Bombers and south Korean Forces represents a reckless military provocation. Meanwhile, a controversial u. S. Missile Defense System is now operational and this all comes as President Trump faces criticism for saying he would be honored to meet with kim jongun under the right circumstances. Well, the white house is pressuring lawmakers on capitol hill to vote as soon as tomorrow on a new plan to replace obamacare and the big question is will preexisting conditions be covered . Abcs mary bruce has all the latest from washington. Good morning, mary. Reporter amy, the president insists the house gop plan will protect people with preexisting conditions. Its one of the few obamacare provisions hes promised to keep. But its not clear if the plan the House Republicans are now pushing will keep the president s promise. To win over ultra conservatives, House Republicans made changes that could undermine t preexisting conditions who could see their Health Care Costs skyrocket. Now as republicans scramble to get the vote, the president is sending some mixed messages saying the bill is not in its final form on preexisting conditions. Still the white house says they are getting close to having the support to get this done but there is still no vote scheduled here on the hill. Amy. All right, mary bruce, thank you very much.

And finally, a scientific answer as to why men always think theyre right even when theyve made a bad decision. You can blame testosterone. Researchers say the hormone makes me sometimes a little too confident. Apparently it reduces cognitive reflection and that means men have less selfdoubt which affects their decisionmaking. And with that study, the world just makes so much more sense to me now. Oh, i love right here theyre like shaking it off going, no, not buying it at all. Not buying it. No selfdoubt, guys.

And i know weve said every day but it is really true, we have an incredible audience. You guys are really great. So, thank you for being here. [ cheers and applause ] and were also fortunate enough to have an incredibly special guest. You remember him from movies like overboard. Love that. Classic, escape from new york. Another classic and now hes starring in guardians of the galaxy volume 2, please welcome the one, the only kurt russell. [ cheers and applause ] to find your way out of there. Sorry about that. How are you . Good to see great to see you. Good to see you, man. [ applause ] oh. Hello, kurt. It was like backdraft. Another one. Our props team got a new toy and have been playing with it. Welcome to the show. We had your costar, the lovely chris pratt on. Hes a sweetheart, isnt he . In a nutshell he is in love with you. He said that he to get over his nerves of working with you. From your perspective did you notice that when you first met him . No, i did not. I just i was happy to have that opportunity to get to meet him and get to know him a little bit before we went to work and when we met, there had been a lot of talk about it. And its one of those things where sometimes you just see somebody and you start smiling. You guys know youre the same family man. Thats what it is. So you are in fact best yeah, were going to go with that. Well, i tell you what, before we continue would you like to see, he brought an exclusive clip from guardians. Ooh. See that. Lets take a look. Well, even where i reside out past the edge weve heard about the man they call star lord. Lets say we head out there right now. Your associates are welcome even that triangle face monkey there. I promise you, its unlike any other place youve ever seen. And there i can explain your very special heritage. Finally get to be the father ive always wanted to be. [ applause ] great. So a full beard and a clip were not allowed to show where they go back to the younger younger kurt russell. Its kind of amazing. We heard you got a sneak peek at it. Well, we were going to do the scene we assumed it would be pure cgi and all the magic they can do a dennis weve done 28 movies together and just before we went in there to tart doing the physical aspect of it live he said to them, you know, i know his face really well. And i can age him down a lot. I got a lot of tribs in my bag. Would that be helpful to you. He said, sure, whatever you can do would be helpful and so he went to work. I went to sleep. He went to work and then we got the hair right and clothes and when you do that for an actor, you have the opportunity to look in the mirror and go, yeah, wait a minute. If i lighten my voice and pick things up a little bit and kind of and we looked at it and said this is going to be great. And so the scene the woman head of the cgi department for the screening in l. A. , she said what did you think about what we did. I said i thought it was pretty great but i understand it was more of a brushup here and there. She said, yeah, he did most of it. Wow. So all kudos to him. The younger you i made i violated a cardinal sin because at marvel they hold things cle vest. I didnt know my name was ego the living planet for the three weeks and anyway, i saw this and i had to and i took a picture and i sent it to goldie and the kids and said, if you show this to anybody ill be dead tomorrow. So, you know, you have to not do that. But look at this and so i had looked in the mirror and it gives you the opportunity to create an impression rather than an image. I think thats one of the things a big difference. If you create an image people have a tendency to stare at it. If you create an impression its misdirect. Get them to not look at certain places and look at other things. It gives the actor the wardrobe, the hair and the makeup a chance to Work Together and i think create something. Goldie didnt leak it truly helped that you dont age so that helps. But, of course, theres that. Theres that. You know. Its not me. Speaking of kids, kate was here for deepwat we love her here. Shes fantastic and she loved the fact you had a chance to Work Together so going to do that again . Going to happen again. Well, actually kate, oliver and wyatt took kate a project that they worked together and she was interested in and then there was a character in the same milllieu that thought pa would be right for this. Read this and see what you think. I said this could be a cool Long Form Television thing. Turned out that mel gibson was also interested in the same material, and so we are at this moment trying to, you know, get that engineered and under way and hopefully well get a chance to do that in that would be great if love to see that. Its got to be you. Its got to be you. [ applause ] so, kate and you have the movie out. Kate, i mean, goldie, that movie that she has out with amy snatched. Cannot wait. Crazy. Yeah, for 14 years she concentrated on the Hunt Foundation for children and its been incredibly successful. Its in the hands of almost 2 million children now. And she got involved with that and it was its just serendipitous i did fast and furious and guardians of the galaxy and she did snatched and all coming out. The weirdest thing of all was that she had to go to london to start promoting it. I was there a day earlier doing this. So we were there for three days then i went back to l. A. She came straight to new york and now ive joined her here in new york so weve been dove tailing so working out pretty good. I like it. Well, i tell you what obviously its working. We love when youre here, man. You guys are terrific. I got to say poison, wyatt is a big fan and so am i. I get to watch you guys and we really enjoy it. Thank you. We love. Guardians of the galaxy volume 2 hits theaters friday. Make sure you check out kurt russell. And coming up hot off the dance my name is jenny doan im a quilter and im a mother and im a grandmother. 2008 was when all the markets crashed, we lost our retirement. Hamilton was losing hope and my husband and i were losing hope. My sister and i we challenged ourselves to help figure out a way to help them. Our kids bought us a quilt machine. It was very humble beginnings. We were just this cute little shop, just like everybody else. One day al came in and asked me if i wanted to do tutorials and i was like sure honey whats a tutorial . I had not a clue. Hi everybody im jenny from the missouri star quilt company. Ally differentiate, we got to a 1,000 subscribers year one and now were at 300,000 subscribers. We started carrying all the fabrics that mom would use in the tutorials. Now were the Worlds Largest provider of precut quilting fabric. In the beginning we were just shipping 10 orders a day. Now we ship 5,000 orders a day. Opening a business in hamilton kinda sparked things. Weve got 14 quilt shops in town, three restaurants, a little hotel, we had over 100,000 people come to hamilton last year. We love jenny. My whole life ive always wanted to own a business. None of that would have been possible without missouri star quilt company. All i have to do is open my door and bake my goods and missouri star does the rest. Youtube has enabled my family and i to bring hope to the town and to the people who live here. And we are back now with a special announcement from Robert Downey jr. The ironman is teaming up with online omaze for his charity random act funding for a perfect supe and i finally figured out what you want. You want a summertime set visit with me and the cast and crew. All come on. Itll be fun. And just in case you didnt recognize him out of costume that was tom holland swinging into theaters this july in in t also be quite windy. The winds diminish this evening, just in time for the nationals game. Temperatures will fall into the 60s during the evening and 50s overnight. Oh, it is a beautiful morning out here, michael. All right, ginger. And im here to talk about the ballroom. A subject close to your heart, ginger, the ballroom bombshell. Both nick viall and Nancy Kerrigan eliminated on last nights dancing here in studio with us and nick and peta are joining us from l. A. And thank you all for joining us. I always say, its great to see you but i hate to see you at this time of the year when dancing with the stars and, nancy, were you surprised to be sent home after one of your best dances of the season . I guess i was a little surprised just because i really wanted to get to the end and i wanted to keep going and learn more. But i knew every week theres always that chance so i dont know. Its just part of the game . Look at how good it is. What happened . What happened . We got to talk to those judges. Nick, i have a question for you. Last night i was watching you do the tango and you had cramps after. Do you think that affected the way you were able to dance last night . Maybe a little bit. I mean i dont want to make excuses. I was a little dehydrated but it was still a ton of fun and, you know, it was a good dance to go out on. And, nancy, y you and artem have a Great Partnership but blogged some of his dances were too risque and i did . And that some of your friends wouldnt let their kids watch the show. Oh, well, i didnt think they were but some of my friends did. Yeah. And what do your kids think of your hole dancing experience. I dont think they thought it. They loved it. Theyre really disappointed that im off the show now but happy that im coming home and so thats like bittersweet and i get to go home and thats a good thing but the show has been such a great platform for me. I didnt realize what it was giving me and allowing me the chance to speak out about things ive been through, miscarriages and eating disorders and things that i didnt realize would touch so many people and what an honor that is for me to be able to maybe help somebody else. I had no idea i was going to do that. Your honesty definitely does help a lot of people out there, im sure. Artem, you had ricky martin help you and your reaction to having ricky martin help you with the samba. It never goes away, what am i doing . What is wrong with me . Look, hes like a huge influence on me growing up because i used to compete and listen to his music and never thought in a million years the guy would be like want me to perform a song for you . I mean, how would you feel . Just like you. Exactly. There you go. You see. [ laughter ] and, pete tra, i got to say, you were magnificent coming back from having your beautiful baby. Thank you. You know, watching you both last night with the double secret agent and all that stuff, really fun to watch and you took nick to new heights and how proud of you are you of him . You know, super proud. We wanted to get, you know, as far as we could and he went out there and he had so much courage to get out there every monday night and dance. Hes had no experience whatsoever so im super proud of you. You know you did a great we have someone else who is proud of you too so take a look. Hi, nick and peta. I am so proud of you guys. Nick, i know youve been working and i want to say youre a winner if my heart. Ah. [ applause ] thats all you need at the end of the day. Thats all you need. A little bit of home. Right. Nancy, im curious, to both you and nick, a question to both of you. Doing this competition and just diving in, did you learn anything about yourselves . I think not just about myself but ive learned about everybody like we are so capable of doing more than we think we are and living outside our box and trying something new and, you know, just giving it all to Something Different and having a new challenge is so important, i think, to grow as a person. Absolutely. [ applause ] nick, how about you . I would just kind of echo kind of nancys thoughts. I mean, you know, this about getting out of my comfort zone and taking big risks and knowing you can survive them and while its, you know, it is just dancing but to be comfortable with that kind of idea is something that i think is useful in life. So this is a question for everyone. Who do you hi is going home with the mirror ball trophy . You heard the audience went whoo. Ill put my money on rashad. Rashad. You like rashad. I like thatting okay. Rashad has a good chance. Yeah, for sure. You four just put a lot of pressure on rashad. I just want you to know that. He can handle it. You know what, were so glad you guys did this. It was so fun to watch you dance and we look forward to having you back and talking to you and just thank you all so much for joining us this morning.

Its all about empowering the young women to live courageously and own their awesome. Please welcome julie foudy. [ cheers and applause ] all right. Im an author. Explain why were wearing socks here. We are doing a sock talk, robin. Oh, okay. Actually robin, you all should know when i told her for the book we interviewed all the people in the book, these fabulous women like Robin Roberts and i said, i said, wear your fabulous socks because were going to put our feet up, its going to be raw. Its going to be real. I didnt want the fancyschmancy. Big old lion slippers. My alma mater. I have the socks on. It is something about, this is what book is all about. Its so conversational and its really geared toward a younger audience and that was on purpose. Yeah, because ive been doing leadership academies as you know for ten years and with girls and teenage girls and young women and the one thing when you talk about leadership is its like deer in headlights. They freeze. You can make a difference in this world. Theyre like, no, no, no, i dont fit that mold and we women are really good which is what i love about women about being prepared andover prepared and disciplined and hard working and we want to check every single box but sometimes you just got to raise your hand and say, im going to go. Yes, i can do this so its to give them a friendly nudge, a little motivation to go on to that next phase of their life. Their next adventure. Its beautiful and we have some boys and girls from soccer club in new jersey. [ cheers and applause ] from woodbridge. Hey there, sara. Do you have a question for julie . Yeah, what is your number one tip for being a leader in on the soccer field and in school. Wow, sara i know, bring it. Bringing the heat. What a followup. Bringing the heat this morning. I would say the one thing i would tell you is to find your leadership style. Right . I think as i was saying when you grow up, at least when i was growing up i thought leadership had to be a position of power, it was a president , it was a politician, it was a ceo, and then i got around all these amazing women on the u. S. Team, right, mia hamm who is in the book, you might have heard of. She was a quiet leader and led in a personal way. She didnt want the spotlight and so i watched all these different styles of leadership and that was the really cool thing so find what your way is and then people will want to follow you. Are you going to do that, sara . You got that. Go on, sara. Got it. [ applause ] and in all books and read them and all that and i just there was just Something Different about yours. It was so you. Ive known you for so many years and been through your leadership flip it. Would you explain to people what that is. Its very powerful in the book. So much of this comes from you, robin, and the ability in your life when confronted with an obstacle or a Health Crisis, youve been able to take a negative and turn it into a positive and the first thing we talk about in the book and give everyone strategies in the book and you were a big part of this is obviously putting in the works so you feel confident enough to do it. The second part is training your brain. I had a wonderful woman on the u. S. Team, dr. Colleen hacker who worked with us who said you can only have one thought in your brain and i was like, really . So, choose what thought thats going to be. Put a positive this there. You flip it. I love that. If its a negative you flip it. Okay. Its like why didnt someone tell me . What else do you have. Then she also said those butterflies youre feeling, thats great because it means you care. Now teach them to fly in formation. I was like, ah. Did you guys hear that . Because we all have theyre bumping into each other. Just get them to fly in formation. So little strategies all throughout the book. You were so gracious enough to share all your strategy. What would you tell your younger self . I would tell my younger self that awkward is awesome. That when my hair was growing up. [ applause ] oh, yes. When my hair was growing up and my brothers friends called me jimmy it was going to be okay. It was going to be okay. What would you tell your younger self, robin. That your character matters more than your reputation because character is who you truly are. Reputation is what people think you are. We care about that. Significance over success, right . I love that. Were going to matter. Thank you, jewelly. Choose to matter is out now.
