In just the last few minutes were tracking more weather, Severe Weather into the day. Ginger has the latest. Not just the fires and Severe Weather but this disturbance in the gulf mexico because, yes, we are in the middle of Hurricane Season that well get to, more than 170 severe storm report, so many stuck on runways and obviously like robin stuck in that storm. An east coast deluge. More than 2,000 flights canceled. Up to 2 inches of rain filling manhattan roads. This time lapse showing the storm plaza cross the city.

At least 20 large wildfires california to colorado, 118degree temperatures grounding air travel in phoenix. And a deadly dust storm in new mexico causing a 25car pileup at the Arizona State line so as you see these excessive heat warnings pop up on the map. Youre thinking why is that . The air is thin so youd need a lot more speed to get the plane up or along a longer runway which they dont have. San francisco, and numbers on the map approach alltime records in phoenix and if it hits that number, its not pretty. More coming up on the potential for flop r Tropical Storms. Im from the heat. That one yesterday when you could see it coming at you, it was something else. Came out of nowhere. To that tragedy involving american student otto warmbier. He died on monday after returning home with extensive brain injury from north korea. Some are calling for a travel ban to that country and Martha Raddatz has all the details for us this morning. Good morning, martha. Reporter it remains a mystery what caused the blood supply to Otto Warmbiers brain to be cut off causing the Severe Damage to the brain of this bright, curious young man but u. S. Official, members of congress and his parents say there is no question it was the fault of the regime of kim jongun. Otto warmbier, the 22yearold who returned to the u. S. Less than a week ago, unable to walk, speak or respond to verbal commands. Suffering extensive brain damage after being held captive in north korea for 17 months. Passing away monday. In a statement, his family says when he was carried off that airplane last week he looked very uncomfortable, almost anguished. But that within a day the countenance of his face changed. He was at peace. He was home and we believe he could sense that. The only glimpse of otto while he was detained by north korea was this courtroom video. He was wearing that ivory colored jacket, pleading for leniency after being charged with trying to steal a propaganda poster. After his release ottos father finding comfort wearing his sons jack. Im able to wear the jacket that he wore when he gave his confession. Reporter it is unclear what caused the university of virginia student to suffer what the doctors called unresponsive wakefulness but the warmbiers are place the blame on north korea saying the awful, tortuous mistreatment our son received at the hands of the North Koreans ensured that no other outcome was possible beyond the sad one we experienced. President trump condemning north koreas brutal regime and treatment of warmbier. A lot of bad things happened. But at least we got him home to be with his parents. Its a brutal regime and well be able to handle it. Reporter there are three other Americans Still being held by the North Koreans, but ottos death could Push Congress or the administration to begin restricting travel there, robin. People want to know what elsy what other action will the u. S. Take . Senator john mccain is calling it a murder which the u. S. Should not tolerate. Others in congress are saying the same and secretary of state Rex Tillerson says that the u. S. Holds north korea accountable for his imprisonment but so far there is no indication the administration is planning any sort of retaliation but that is complicated, robin, by the fact the three other americans are still there. We have to keep them in our hearts. You feel for them. We want to turn to other developments out of washington. The Senate Health care bill growing tense as they went past midnight protesting the lack of open hearings. They want to pass it before july 4th. Democrats say its been shrouded in secrecy. That highstakes special election in georgia and voters going to the polls in the most expensive house race ever in a republican district where President Trump won by a slim margin over hillary clinton. A lot of pressure on both sides for republicans to trying to hold on to the seat. For democrat, a real test of whether theyll be able to capitalize on the turmoil in d. C. Reporter thats right, david. A mountain of importance has been placed on one this congressional race. Were outside the polling place where karen handel casts her vote hoping to win a seat that republicans have held on to for decades. Her opponent is trying to make history and upset a president. More than 50 million is how much these two candidates have spent fighting over voters in the suburbs of atlanta. Good to see you. Reporter making this the most expensive congressional race ever. Hi. Reporter for supporters of Republican Karen Handel it doesnt matter that across the country many on the left see todays vote as a referendum on the president. Does it influence your thought on this as all . No im a karen supporter and trump supporter too. Reporter jon ossoff usually avoids the issue in public but his supporters arent sly saying fighting the president has united democrats across the city. It galvanized. There are folks across the eight and country who have lost faith and in this room this team has the power to help restore some of that faith. Hi, georgia. San francisco just wanted to say thank you. Reporter groups supporting karen handel have spent their money underlying how ossoff got his large pile of case outside the state. We have nancy pelosi as our congresswoman. Now youll give us jon ossoff as our congressman. The square will get a lot of votes if he has 30 million behind him. The president is pointing out ossoff doesnt live in the 6th and cant even vote in the district he wants to represent. Ossoff explains that he doesnt live in this district because hes with his girlfriend, who is a student at Emory University and wants to live closer to campus and the president is up again this morning handlering him on this issue. Robin. That he is, all right, steve, thank you. More now on the Health Care Bill and democrats launching a mar tho marathon protest and mary bruce was there as many were. Reporter it was an allnighter as democrats are railing against republicans for writing their Health Care Bill behind closed doors this. Is legislation that could dramatically roll back the expansion of medicaid and change the way americans get their coverage. But there have been no hearings and no open debris. Now Republican Leaders insist theyve been working on it for years and plenty of debate in the past but democrats say they are going to use every single procedural tool they have available to them to try to delay the fight and force republicans to bring their bill out into the open. Even though though dont have the political power to actually block republicans. And Senate Republicans say they want to get this done before they go home for the july 4th recess. How is that looking. Reporter authorized to get that done they have just nine legislative days left to pull it off. Republicans insist theyre getting closer and making progress and a vote next week still possible but seen no legislation. Mary bruce, up late and up early this morning for us. Thank you. Hard working as always. Lets bring in jonathan karl. You got the white house tracking this white house fight and democrats ang new over secrecy and the president tweeting about that close race in georgia. A lot at stake even for him. Reporter it is only 1 seat out of 435 in the house of representatives but a hugely significant race, david. This is a congressional seat that has been republican in republican hands since before the democratic candidate was born. It was Newt Gingrichs seat so a loss for republicans would be a real warning sign what would happen next year in the midterm electrics and the most expensive race, diana, david, by my count more than half a dozen president ial tweets on this race in the last 24 hours. That means we know someone else is watching closely. A lot of talk on social media on something we have not much on before, his voice. Here he was talking to technology leaders. Take a listen. Before i came to washington, many warns me that the bureaucracy would resist any change that we tried to implement. So far i have found exactly the opposite. Jon, even had a field day hearing what kushner soubs like. Why now . Its miss that we are hearing from him the first time after five months in office. He has a hugely significant job here, david. He was speaking yesterday because he brought in those technology leaders. Amazon, microsoft, apple. All here as part of his initiative to modernize the federal government. Later this week he is going to the middle east to work on peace and speaking because these are important projects. He really needs to be out there. One of the more important things we have heard more from the secretive Jared Kushner in the past 24 hours than from the White House Press connect. Whats going on. We didnt hear from sean spicer yesterday. No cameras or audio allowed. Will it continue today . I looked at the press schedule today there is not even a briefing on the schedule so yesterday news organizations were not allowed to record the voice of sean spicer or show video of him briefing the press, now hes apparently not even going to brief. Like the disaprioring press second. Quite extraordinary, david. Going to face a lot of questions. Jon karl, our thanks to you again as always. Michael. Thank you david. Now the new images showing the al baghdadimath of that mysterious crash at sea between a u. S. Navy destroyer and a cargo ship and good morning to you, matt. Reporter good morning.

The fitzgerald was flooding and the navy is investigating but some of the seven men found dead in that flooded bert were alive when it was sealed off in an effort to keep it from sinking. Is there protocol for that . Mentality is that youre going to fight any catastrophe and casualties where they occur and preserve the integrity of the rest of the ship. I guarantee everybody would do everything they could. Reporter instead of stopping to help multiple trackers show the container ship continues on its original course for 30 minutes. Only then turning back to the scene and didnt alert authorities until 50 minutes after. The remains land back in the u. S. Darryl martin lost his son xavier. Its very hard. My only child. Thats all i have. The parent ships Container Company says it is complying with the investigation but the company couldnt explain what certainly seems like a hitandrun on the high seas. Why the ship kempt going for seven miles before making that uturn and waited nearly an hour before calling authorities about what happen. Michael. Than thank you.

But to help others, they first had to protect themselves. I have afib. Even for a nurse, its complicated. And it puts me at higher risk of stroke. That would be devastating. I had to learn all i could to help protect myself. Once i got the facts, my doctor and i chose xarelto®. Xarelto®. To help keep me protected. Oncedaily xarelto®, a latestgeneration blood thinner. Significantly lowers the risk of stroke in people with afib not caused by a heart valve problem. It has similar effectiveness to warfarin. Xarelto® works differently. Warfarin interferes with at least 6 bloodclotting factors. Xarelto® is selective, targeting just one critical factor interacting with less of your bodys natural bloodclotting function. For afib patients wellmanaged on warfarin, there is limited information on how xarelto® compares in reducing the risk of stroke. Dont stop taking xarelto® without talking to your doctor, as this may increase risk of stroke. While taking, you may bruise more easily, or take longer for bleeding to stop. It may increase your risk of bleeding if you take certain medicines. Xarelto® can cause serious, and in rare cases, fatal bleeding. Get help right away for unexpected bleeding, unusual bruising, or tingling. If youve had spinal anesthesia, watch for back pain or any nerve or musclerelated signs or symptoms. Do not take xarelto® if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. Tell your doctor before all planned medical or dental procedures. And before starting xarelto®about any conditions, such as kidney, liver, or bleeding problems. Its important to learn all you can. To help protect yourself from a stroke. Talk to your doctor about xarelto®. Theres more to know™. So we got our new he washing machine but it took forever turns out it wasnt the machine, it was our detergent.
