emergency operation center and the world health organization holding an emergency meeting right now. blasting bernie. hillary clinton's stunning attack on senator sanders, saying, quote, nobody likes him, with just 12 days to go until the iowa caucuses. taking on the press. harry and meghan threatening legal action over photos taken near their new home in canada. bitter winter blast. florida waking up to temperatures near freezing this morning and the warning about iguanas falling from trees. basket-brawl. fury this morning after a massive fight breaks out at a top college game. and grammys bombshell. with just four days until the big show the ousted ceo's stunning new allegation claiming the voting is corrupt, rigged to help some artists and exclude others from nominations. what she revealed about suspicious snubs to ed sheeran and ariana grande. we do say good morning, america. we appreciate you starting your day with us. another busy morning, big day about to begin on capitol hill. the opening arguments in the impeachment trial just hours away. >> last night's marathon debates went until nearly 2:00 a.m. and take a look. the senators racing to get home before they have to return to the capitol today. >> just a few hours of sleep, that came after a series of party line votes where republicans for now voted down democrats' demands to see the documents and witnesses blocked from the house impeachment hearings. the house prosecution team set to make their formal case today and our senior congressional correspondent mary bruce has more. good morning, mary. >> reporter: good morning, george. if yesterday is any indication this will be a drag out fight on the hill. for 12 1/2 hours, they debated the rules for this trial and that central question of whether to allow new witnesses and evidence, and as this fight stretched into the early morning hours, the attacks grew sharper. the two sides trading insults but at the center of this clash a very real fight about what is fair and what is right. >> the senate is adjourned. >> reporter: overnight after hours of intense grueling debate frustration between democratic prosecutors and president trump's defense team boiling over. >> i'm struck by what we have heard from the president's counsel so far tonight. they will not permit the american people to hear from the witnesses. and they lie and lie and lie and lie. >> mr. nadler, it is not nonsense. these are privileges recognized by the supreme court of the united states. and to shred the constitution on the floor of the senate, to serve what purpose? >> reporter: it grew so heated chief justice john roberts stepped in to reprimand both sides. >> i think it is appropriate at this point for me to admonish both the house managers and the president's counsel in equal terms to remember that they are addressing the world's greatest deliberative body. >> reporter: all 100 senators forced to sit silently through it all. their phones tucked away in cubbies outside the chamber. at the core of this fight a bitter battle over the rules for the trial ahead. democrats say without additional witnesses or documents, the trial amounts to a cover-up. >> witnesses matter. documents matter. evidence matters. the truth matters. >> reporter: but trump's lawyers argue house democrats rushed to impeach without fighting for witnesses in court. >> obstruction for going to court? it's an act of patriotism to defend the constitutional rights of the president because if they can do it to the president they could do it to any of you and they could do it to any american citizen, and that's wrong. >> reporter: the debate stretching until 2:00 a.m. >> if we keep going like this, it'll be next week. >> yeah, we're making it hard for you. it's not our job to make it easy for you. >> reporter: democrats offering one amendment after another demanding new evidence. >> the amendment is tabled. >> the amendment is tabled. >> the amendment is tabled. >> reporter: but they all failed. >> the amendment is tabled. >> reporter: even republicans who support considering new witnesses say now is not the time. >> the right time for that vote, that decision, is after the opening arguments. >> reporter: many key republicans like senator susan collins did push for changes to the rules. republican leader mitch mcconnell eager to keep his party united, quickly made revisions scrawled by hand on the actual resolution agreeing to admit the evidence gathered by democrats in the house and to allow each side to have three days instead of two for opening arguments. after 12 1/2 hours, the contentious day ending with this brief moment of unity and applause. >> on behalf of all of us we want to thank you for your patience. [ applause ] >> it comes with the job. please. >> reporter: and through all of this, remember senators are stuck in their seats. no cell phone, no coffee, no staffers to help them out. we spotted several senators fidgeting in their seats, passing notes back and forth to one another. one senator even managed to sneak in a crossword puzzle. george, it is clear this process is going to be a bit of a challenge for these senators turned jurors. they're expected back in their seats later this afternoon. >> let's talk about what's going to happen today, mary. we believe there could be another fight over some of the rules and then we believe these opening statements will begin. >> reporter: yeah, as we have seen from yesterday, there are a lot of variables here but here's what we expect. this morning both sides will submit pretrial motions. now that could include a motion to dismiss from the president's team. republicans have made clear they will not support that measure at this time. then at 1:00 all of these weary senators are expected to be back in the chamber for what we believe will be the opening arguments and, george, under these new rules both sides will have 24 hours stretched out over three days to make their case. >> okay, mary, thanks very much. let's bring in chief legal analyst dan abrams for more. you look at the 12 hours yesterday. what you saw the house managers doing is putting the president on trial, also putting pressure on the senate to have what they call a fair trial and these documents and witnesses. the president's team putting the house on trial. >> right. so i think the most important thing for the house managers to do from here is to somehow make the american people realize how important it is to have more information. and what i mean by that is they've got to make the case that what we have already is incredibly damning, and yet there are some holes here and there. why? because the president hasn't allowed certain people to testify. if we can hear from some of them, that will fill in the holes that you ought to want filled in. i think that's the key to sort of bringing together the procedural with the substantive for the house managers. on the flip side, look, it is the strategy to put the house managers on trial. they don't want to focus too much, i don't think, on ukraine. they didn't mention ukraine certainly nearly as much as the house managers did. >> meantime, the whole question will be can they convince four republican senators in the end that you do need to see documents and witnesses before the end of the trial? we had a little bit of a surprise yesterday. mitch mcconnell had to change his house resolution under pressure from those senators but the big question is, does it show he's losing control of the caucus or knows how to keep control? >> right, and i think those are minor changes, 24 hours over two days versus three days was one of the changes. do you admit the evidence at the outset or later on? not that substantive but the question is the bigger picture. does this mean that somehow he's lost a little bit of control or is he saying, look, let's just give on this now because it's not a big deal. we'll have to see. >> we don't know the answer to that. dan abrams, thanks very much. you'll join us for our live coverage of the impeachment trial. i'll be anchoring with our entire political team starting 1:00 eastern on abc. robin? >> another long day. now to growing concerns about the deadly coronavirus. officially hitting the u.s. here's what we know -- a washington state resident fell ill after returning from wuhan, china, where the outbreak began. officials now say more than 400 people have been sickened and 9 people have died. the world health organization is holding an emergency meeting right now. kayna whitworth is in seattle, has the latest for us. good morning, kayna. >> reporter: robin, good morning. that patient is a man in his 30s. he is in the hospital here behind me. now officials are saying he's in satisfactory condition but he will remain in isolation for at least the next couple of days. they're also monitoring all health care workers and patients he came into contact with after testing positive for the coronavirus. the first case of the deadly chinese coronavirus making its way to the u.s. a washington state man testing positive for the deadly virus. according to the cdc the man in his 30s flew home to seattle last wednesday, infected but not yet symptomatic. according to officials, shortly after arriving in seattle he began feeling ill and reached out to his health care provider on sunday. 24 hours later, his diagnosis was confirmed by the cdc. the man entering the country before federal health officials began screening travelers from the city of wuhan, one of the busiest transportation hubs in central china and where the outbreak began. >> this is certainly not a moment for panic or high anxiety. it is a moment for vigilance. >> reporter: this as some 3 billion trips are expected to be made by chinese citizens heading home to celebrate the lunar new year spring festival. a reported 7 million chinese tourists expected to travel abroad. chinese officials taking every precaution to contain the virus. workers outside of the local hospital in biosuits. officials screening travelers as they enter and leave the airport. our bob woodruff is here walking through wuhan airport wearing a three-ply surgical mask to limit his exposure to the virus. >> the city is now controlling people going in and out of the city, then also local tourist groups are being banned from leaving. the government does not want this infection to leave. >> reporter: screenings now expanding to five u.s. airports including chicago and atlanta and anyone hoping to enter the u.s. from wuhan must do so through one of those locations. so right now officials with the cdc are retracing this washington man's steps. they say that he actually did not visit that fish and meat market in wuhan. that's where they believe this virus originated. and also, michael, they're crediting him with quickly alerting his doctors once he became symptomatic. >> all right, thank you so much, kayna. now we bring in dr. jennifer ashton to answer a few questions we may have. doc, there's so many questions about transmission of the virus. human-to-human, yesterday we talked about that. what more do we know? >> again, what we know is that it's spreading. that's not really a surprise. what we don't know is a lot about this virus. we don't know its incubation period. we don't really know the root of transmission. it is a coronavirus which normally spreads via respiratory droplets but we don't know the specifics on this new one. we don't know how contagious it is meaning which amount of people exposed get sick or the severity of the illness, how many go on to develop mild sympt symptoms, things like pneumonia requiring hospitalizations and don't know the fatality rate yet. >> what's been done to protect the public? >> a lot of this has been prepped and primed by the response of not only the cdc but the world health organization in response to sars so we know how to act more quickly, more efficiently. here in this country as we heard, flights coming from wuhan will only be allowed to land at certain airports where this screening can take place. passengers will then be screened and if sick they will be isolated. if asymptomatic they'll be given very important educational materials as kayna said. health care providers urged to screen, and new testing methods gotten out by the cdc so we can identify the cases more quickly. >> all right, doc, thank you. >> you bet. >> george. we turn now to the race for the white house. just 12 days before the iowa caucuses a blast from the last campaign with hillary clinton taking on bernie sanders saying, quote, nobody likes him, nobody wants to work with him. sanders firing right back. eva pilgrim is in des moines with the details. good morning, eva. >> reporter: george, hillary clinton unplugged and unleashing attacking former 2016 rival senator bernie sanders. former democratic presidential nominee hillary clinton offering what she calls her authentic unvarnished views just days before the iowa caucuses. difference. you want to have an impact, well, then you got to get in the arena. >> reporter: opening up in the new hulu documentary about everything, including her former rival bernie sanders saying, he was in congress for years. he had one senator support him. nobody likes him. nobody wants to work with him. he got nothing done. now in an interview with "the hollywood reporter" clinton is doubling down. asked if she stands by that statement, the former secretary of state saying, yes. sanders who endorsed and campaigned for clinton four years ago responding. >> on a good day my wife likes me. so let's clear the air on that one. secretary clinton is entitled to her point of view. my job today is to focus on the impeachment trial. >> why do you think the secretary is still talking about 2016? >> that is a good question. ask her. >> reporter: online sanders supporters coming out in full force slamming clinton with the #ilikebernie. one prominent michigan progressive tweeting, i like bernie sanders. he's my friend, plus millions of others. why? rather than say nobody likes us, he's fighting for us. asked if she will support sanders if he becomes the nominee clinton said, i'm not going to go there yet. we're still in a very vigorous primary season. ♪ power to the people >> reporter: adding she finds the culture of his campaign and some of his supporters' attacks against women candidates to be worrisome. but overnight clinton tweeting, the number one priority for our country and world is retiring trump. and, as i always have, i will do whatever i can to support our nominee. now, senator bernie sanders was planning to come back here to iowa tonight but he has since canceled that event because of the impeachment trial schedule. robin? >> that's right, eva. thank you. now to the harvey weinstein trial. opening statements are set to begin today as we learn new details about the movie mogul's possible defense and the 12 jurors who will hear the case. whit johnson is outside the courthouse here in manhattan with the latest. good morning, whit. >> reporter: robin, good morning to you. more than 80 women have made allegations against harvey weinstein of sexual misconduct but this trial will focus on two specific cases. as you mentioned, those opening statements set to begin today before a jury of seven men and five women. prosecutors will attempt to prove a pattern of predatory behavior so expect to hear allegations from some of hollywood's biggest celebrities like charlize theron, rosie perez and salma hayek. six women are expected to testify including "the sopranos" actress annabella sciorra who claims weinstein raped her in her manhattan apartment in the early '90s. weinstein's defense team is planning to include dozens of loving emails sent by accusers to the producer after he allegedly assaulted them. the 67-year-old has denied the allegations against him and any allegations of sexual misconduct. he has also pleaded not guilty to all of the charges. michael?
