into a plane and out west, the snow slide stranding students. >> heard it was going to snow but we didn't know it snowed this bad. and the new concerns this morning for a major nor'easter. and dad interrupted trying to conduct a serious live on camera interview. photobombed by his kids and a mortified wife. >> my apologies. >> this morning what he's saying about it. and i feel for that dad. it's hilarious. but i feel for him. good morning. >> it's so funny. >> you're going to notice that rob, who is also a dad, is not at the desk with us this morning. he's out in the cold, unfortunately for him, covering into what could turn into a march blizzard for the northeast in just a few days. we have a map to show you what could come and we'll have all the latest on this in just a few moments. >> we will start with the flurry of headlines out of the trump administration. overnight federal prosecutors around the nation announcing their resignations after being ordered to do so by the justice department. >> yeah, these firings come as the administration is facing a deadline from congress to provide evidence if any exists to back up president trump's claim made via twitter exactly one week ago this morning that the former president wiretapped him during the campaign. also swirling this morning, questions about what president trump did and did not know about his former national security adviser's ties and connections with a foreign country. we have team coverage and our david wright kicks things off for us this morning from washington. good morning, david. >> reporter: good morning, paula. good morning, dan. a lot of ground to cover as usual this week. it was exactly a week ago today that president trump tweeted a bombshell, accusing his predecessor of spying on him and the proof that that actually happened, nothing so far and the house intelligence committee is now demanding answers. lawmakers have now given the justice department a monday deadline to hand over all evidence if it exists that the phones in trump tower were bugged. president trump has not backed down from that claim. >> mr. president, any proof on the wiretapping? >> thank you. thank you, press. >> mr. president, any proof at all on the wiretapping? >> reporter: when jonathan karl pressed him white house aides shut him down. >> please head out behind you. thank you. please. >> reporter: the white house has yet to offer any proof. overnight at the justice department, a massive round of partisan layoffs, the attorney general asked for the resignations of all 46 remaining u.s. attorneys from the obama administration. but several of the federal prosecutors say the president had earlier told them they could stay. finally today there's a new controversy about a man the president already fired, former national security adviser michael flynn. trump accepted flynn's resignation last month after he lied to the vice president about his conversations with the russian ambassador. this week flynn disclosed his company earned hundreds of thousands of dollars lobbying for turkey. >> that's right. yeah, that's right. lock her up. >> reporter: even as flynn sat in on classified briefings with candidate trump. on election day, flynn published an article declaring we need to adjust our foreign policy to recognize turkey as a priority. but the white house says the president was unaware until this week that his trusted aide was moonlighting. >> are you saying the president was not aware that lieutenant general michael flynn was acting as a foreign agent when he appointed him to the national security adviser? >> correct. well, and just remember, you wouldn't know that until he filed -- he didn't file until two days ago so, therefore, nobody would have known that because he hadn't filed as a foreign agent until two days ago. >> reporter: now, flynn's lawyer insists that the trump campaign was fully briefed about his work on behalf of turkey. the white house pushes back though saying that the president did not get that message until flynn registered as a foreign agent, that happened this week when he declared $500,000 in lobbying fees. paula. >> david wright, thanks for reporting from washington this morning. the administration is busy making the case for repealing and replacing obamacare. president trump meeting with lawmakers and this weekend the vice president is heading to kentucky. now, trump predicts the health care bill will pass expeditiously despite opposition from members of his own party and gloria riviera is in washington to give us the very latest on this. hi, gloria. >> reporter: good morning, paula. that's right. there are no guarantees the president's new bill will pass quite as quickly as he would like. this is really president trump's first legislative battle. the bill catching heat from doctors, nurses, the aarp and many on both sides of the aisle. >> thank you very much. >> reporter: this morning the white house making its big push to overhaul obamacare. president trump praising republican leaders and their version of the american health care act. the bill already clearing two major committees but faces more next week for approval. >> this is the time we're going to get it done. we're working together. we have some great results. we have tremendous spirit. >> this is major entitlement reform. we're going to restore power to the states. we're really committed to fixing this individual insurance market. >> reporter: today, vice president mike pence hitting the road to make the big pitch traveling to kentucky. but the new plan could be a tough sell in this state where many more kentuckians obtained health care with the aca. kentucky senator rand paul and governor matt bevin are not yet sold on the new proposals. >> i think it's dead on arrival. i don't think conservatives will vote for it. we do agree on repeal. we just don't quite agree on replacement. and i just don't think it's going to happen. >> reporter: the bill is set to be on the house floor by the end of the month but with major opposition by some party members and many trump voters. the american medical association and the american hospital association are against it. one analysis projects up to 10 million fewer americans would have health insurance. while white house officials and some top republicans are fully committed and convinced it's the best option. >> this is the closest we will ever get to repealing and replacing obamacare. >> reporter: one of the major points of contention is just how quickly the medicaid expansion under obama, that's the state state and federal insurance plan for the needy, will be phased out. delays on the overall bill could be problemic. the president has a lot riding on this, dan, paula. >> he does. gloria, thank you. so much news to discuss this morning. let's bring in abc news political analyst kristen soltis-anderson who is also in washington this morning. kristen, good morning. >> good morning. president trump is predicting a fast passage of his health care bill. do you think he's on target? >> i think that congress works a lot more slowly than businesses or anything else donald trump has had experience running in the past. i think he's going to be surprised to find that despite the fact that he's arguably one of the more popular folks in the republican party, that they're going to be these members especially the folks in the house freedom caucus, that's the group of a handful of the most conservative members, they think that this bill does not repeal obamacare enough. they've given it the label obamacare-lite and worry that there are certain things like the medicaid expansion that obamacare created that would not be rolled back fast enough and so in that way, paul ryan as well as donald trump are trying to split the difference between a congress where democrats don't want to vote for anything that would change obamacare and a handful of conservatives that really want the law gone and think anything done to preserve any piece of it is a bridge too far. >> let's move on to another topic. michael flynn, we just mentioned the former national security adviser had been working on behalf of turkish interests. now, the trump administration said the president wasn't personally aware of this but how is that possible? how is something like this not revealed to the commander in chief during the vetting process? >> so, this raises a lot of questions about to what extent when folks are being vetted for these positions are they being interviewed? are they being asked about these sorts of things? how honest are they being? remember, a big piece of why michael flynn was pushed out of his position was because he was not forthright with vice president pence and when vice president pence went out and was sort of defending him, he was defending him using incorrect information. so, this may be something that is specific to this one individual who was already pushed out of the administration. but you've also read at the same time lots of stories of open positions within the government that can't get filled because the vetting process for hiring people, deputy secretaries, undersecretaries, communications directors, they're putting people through a vetting process where they look at everything they've ever tweeted, that they've ever said, and if they've ever been critical of the president, they're getting axed from the position making it much harder for them to fill some of these government roles. >> we appreciate your analysis on a saturday morning. thank you very much. >> thank you. >> from a flurry of news and politics we now move to severe weather and turns out punxsutawney phil, he may have been correct with his prediction that six more weeks of winter were in store. we have storms on both coasts, another is on its way. rob is in new york central park with more, so apparently, rob, we have to give punxsutawney phil a little credit here. >> i guess so. he got february wrong for sure but now we're back in it. what a surreal scene it is in central park. the sun is coming up. i hear the birds chirping but there's snow on the grass and there's daffodils popping up through that snow. i mean some very january-like cold is barreling down across much of the eastern half of the country. take a look. we've got a windchill in new york city of 8 degrees but it's minus 7 in boston. that's what it feels like. it feels like 2 degrees in pittsburgh and minus 2 in green bay. this in the wake of one of three snowmakers for the eastern half of the country. this morning, cold air pouring in after a march snowstorm in the northeast. overnight in boston, alaska airlines flight 769 smashing into a de-icing truck at logan international airport. the bucket portion of the de-icer clipping one of the plane's wings. firefighters rescuing the trapped worker. >> then they stopped the plane and they eventually came over the speaker and said they had an incident with the ice truck. >> reporter: passengers rushed off the plane given vouchers for the canceled flight. the roads, an icy mess. a tow truck rolling this fire truck back over after it crashed off interstate 89 in connecticut. luckily no serious injuries. out west, nonstop rain and snow causing mudslides and snow slides like this one. it shut down this highway in washington stranding 42 high school students who were on a three-day trip to a mountain observatory. the students safe but still need some supplies. >> there were some of the kids that needed medication and only packed a certain amount. so i guess they're helicoptering in. >> reporter: part of that system now moving across the country to fuel a potential nor'easter. millions along the i-95 corridor right in its sights. right now more than half of the country, mostly the eastern half, under some sort of winter watch, warning or advisory. take a look at this map. it is impressive, and we got two to deal with. it's a southern quick mover and we're looking for snow in memphis, nashville, north georgia and north carolina significant snowfall in the mountains there but generally speaking 1 to 2 inches of snow in some southern states. that is significant then on monday, tuesday, wednesday this coastal storm could be a classic nor'easter if not a full on blizzard depending on the track which we're not too certain of at the moment, but we could easily see double-digit amounts of snow in the middle of march. more on this today, of course, throughout the hour and tomorrow. we'll see you in a bit. >> i'm supposed to be nonbiased but i'm righting for that storm to go out to sea. rob, thank you very much. a wild story out of paris, meanwhile, this morning where police are on the hunt for thieves who snatched hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of diamonds and jewels from two americans. abc's jennifer eccleston is on the story. >> reporter: a spectacular heist in paris' exclusive place vendome. $400,000 in jewelry including diamonds snatched from an american couple in this parking lot thursday night. french police tell abc news the thieves on scooters luring in the victims by telling them that their tire is flat. when the trusting tourists check, that's when the robbers use the distraction to swipe several bags from the car. the thieves were unarmed and now on the run. the high stakes caper following several high-profile parisian stickups. kim kardashian was held hostage and robbed of $10 million worth of jewels inside an exclusive hotel during fashion week in october. the gang armed and dressed as police terrorized the reality tv icon gagging and tying her up before escaping on bikes. a month later an indian movie star said she was gassed during a botched robbery. >> anything they wear that's flashy, slash, e target to even end thieves. any time you have an item that's worth a lot of money, you can't just pick it up and carry it around and stick it in your car because you are then vulnerable to being robbed. >> reporter: paris is still a top tourist destination and despite security concerns, french officials have insisted the city remain safe for all visitors. dan and paula. >> let's hope so. jennifer, thank you very much. let's send things over to ron claiborne for a look at the other
