What do you want me to do . Discard him and now he has been discarded. Why . I am loyal and i am still loyal. He did a very good job and i spent much less money than anyone else. We should take that into a factor and i beat everybody else. Thats a good thing. I would stand up at certain rallies and say i spend far less than this one or that one. Is this personal or a political view or philosophy or did this boil down to something personal . Reported that your family members, including your the campaign any more. Thats absolutely true. We like him. We had a great victory. Hey, matt, i got more votes than anybody in the history of the republican primaries. You said thats absolutely true that ivanka didnt want him in the campaign. I was reversing it. I said its true that ivanka respects corey and she likes corey and i read all his reports about the children and all of this. Its all nonsense. Its absolute nonsense. You sound like youre saying everything is great with corey and he has been fired from your campaign. Why . Were going in a different direction because this is now different. The primaries i won in landslides biggest vote in history and won in landslides and corey was absolutely perfect for that. We have, to this day, you saw his interviews yesterday. We have a great relationsh direction. I mentioned he is the guy is who let trump be trump and let him speak his mind and that got you a lot of success during the primaries. Does this signal with him out that youre not going to let trump be trump any more. Youre going to change your tone for the general election . I dont think so, matt. I have to be who i am. I dont want to be a phony like Hillary Clinton where she has highprice talent. I want to be what i am. New polls came out and im right there. Right there. With a horrible few weeks i had from the press. The press is treating me unbelievably unfairly and with all that bad press i had over the last couple of weeks.

Helps you mount a professional campaign and a sign of whether people are supporting you. How do you explain those lackluster results . Let me just tell you this. I understand money better than anybody. I understand it far better than hillary. Im way up on the economy when it comes to questions on the economy. We have a party, i mean, im having more difficulty, frankly, with some of the people in the party than i would the democrats because they dont want to come on. They will probably eventually come on. Honestly, if they dont, its just fine. I can win it it either way. I may be better winning it the traditional way. Ive raised a lot of money. But you also have to have some help from the party. But ive raised a lot of money. Raised 12 million this weekend. I was in texas and i was in arizona and i was in las vegas. We raised a lot of money this weekend. We made four or five stops and im raising that money for the party. Matt, if it gets to a point, what ill do is just do what i did in the primaries. 55 million of my own money to. 55. Now, you know, thats a lot of money. Even by any standard. I may do that in the general election. Excuse me, matt. I have a lot of cash and i may do it, again, in the general election. But it would be nice to have some help from the party. You just mentioned the party. Paul ryan, the speaker of the house, came out and said he would vote for you. Then on sunday on meet the press sounded as if he was waffling a le Republican Party that they should vote their conscious, which is not exactly saying get out there and vote for our nominee who will be donald trump. You said famously a long time ago that hell support you and if you dont have his support hell have problems. Does he have problems now . He didnt say support me, endorse me. So did Mitch Mcconnell endorse me. With that being said, i would like to see great support. Ill go a different route. Look, everyone said you could never get to 1,237 delegates. You know that better than anybody. You cant get to 1,237 delegates. Theres 17 people in the race. I ended up at 1,570. 1,570 way above the 1,237 that people said you couldnt get.

Take a gander at a huge crowd out on the plaza this morning. They are here for a great reason. We have Meghan Trainor<\/a> in our 8 30 half hour. If youre in the area, its not too late. Youll be in the back, but its not too late. Two dangerous new wildfires are spreading outside of los angeles. Evacuations have been ordered in several nearby communities. Donald trump is opening up about his decision to fire his Campaign Manager<\/a> Corey Lewandowski<\/a>. Election fast approaching, the time had simply come for a change and dont expect him to change on the campaign trail. I think i have to be who i am. I dont want to be a phony like a Hillary Clinton<\/a> where she reads stuff written up by highprice talent. I dont want to be that. I want to be what i am. For his part lewandowski still supports trump and make sure his former boss wins in negative. Loretta lynch is visiting orlando today. She will pay her respects at the site of the shooting and also meet with the local police to get an update on the investigation. Want to tell you now about this waiting game at the south pole where two planes were attempting to evacuate at least one sick crew member at a research facility. Nbckeir simmons has the latest on that. Keir, good morning to you. Hey, matt, good morning. This morning this small team has arrived at this base in antarctica. They have refueled and ready to fly. Dont be misled by this picture. What this base is like right now of the bleak conditions this team is facing. A perilous tenhour flight lies ahead and this gloomy web cam image shows the current base, rath arstation. Right now antarctica six months long. The team will be flying in virtual darkness. A tiny plane carrying just a pilot, copilot, engineer and medic. If they are able to reach the National Science<\/a> foundation they will land in the dark on skis evacuating the sick, unnamed worker and flying back another 1,500 miles. If they dont make it, a second plane will launch a search and rescue operation. The weather down in antarctica can change quickly. Youre fighting against some of that reporter polar explorer traces the dangerous route. The pilots know the risk. These pilots and the crew are the best in the world. They have accepted this and they would not do this if they didnt think they could make it safely. Reporter this morning they are set to take off, waiting for a break in the harsh weather. A race against time to the bottom of the earth. And a check here on the weather online suggests mae, maybe in the next few days there will be an opportunity for them to take off, matt. But just underscore, the weather where they are going is 70 degrees below. Yeah, very difficult situation. Keir, thank you very much. New fallout this morning over Bernie Sanders<\/a> decision to stay in the race. Thats because it is a choice that is costing taxpayers tens of thousands of dollars every day. Kristen welker has more on that story. Kristen, good morning. Savannah, good morning to you. Bernie sandersks like a senator than a president ial candidate. Back on capitol hill to vote on Gun Legislation<\/a> but he still is in the race and that is costing taxpayers and also raising fresh scrutiny about his decision to stay in, despite the fact that Hillary Clinton<\/a> effectively clinched the nomination weeks ago. Senator sanders back on capitol hill monday. Surrounded by secret service because, technically, he is still a president ial candidate. Sanders detail often on display. Staked outside his home where they even built a small watch station and seen during his recent meeting with Hillary Clinton<\/a>. Senator sanders. Reporter defending the candidate on the trail, like when Animal Rights<\/a> protesters tried to rush the stage in may. Sanders decision to stay in the race is costing taxpayers an estimated 38,000 a day for secret Service Protection<\/a>. With 35 days until the convention, that could add up to 1. 3 million if sanders goes the way to philadelphia. Monday, he ignored shouted questions on the controversy first raised by the Washington Post<\/a>. The secret service and Sanders Campaign<\/a> declined to comment, but some taxpayers are fuming at the candidate. That is a lot of unnecessary spending. Reporter Whose Campaign<\/a> was railing on wasteful spending. Because we have the most wasteful, dysfunctional system in the world. Reporter while all of that is only adding to the pressure from within the Democratic Party<\/a> for sanders to suspend his campaign, top surrogates still defend him. I really wish people would not focus on the secret service part of this but focus in on the Broader Service<\/a> that senator sanders is providing. Reporter and the candidate himself who is calling for changes to the democratic primary process recently told supporters in an online conference he has more work to do before bowing out. We must continue our grassroots effort to create the america that we know we become. Reporter and sanders aides privately note his secret Service Detail<\/a> costs a lot less now that hes not holding multiple rallies ever day. Hes not the first candidate to be criticized over this issue. Back in 2012, a conservative Taxpayers Group<\/a> urged Newt Gingrich<\/a> to give up his secret Service Protection<\/a> once it became clear that he couldnt win the nomination. Savannah, matt. Kristen welker on capitol hill, thank you. Another check of the weather. Thats right. The power and frightening and also somewhat beautiful, as well. More lightning displays like that as we go through the next 24 to 48 hours here in the northeast in the midatlantic and parts of the midwest. A system pushing through now. A risk of strong storms from bismarck, north dakota, down to d. C. And norfolk and knoxville were really concerned tomorrow. Look at this from chicago to indianapolis, ft.

Well catch up with charlie in a moment, but first his road from then until now. Im here to admit that i am, in fact, hiv positive. Since the last time we spoke sheen was sued by a woman claiming he failed to disclose his hiv positive status before they engaged in sex. A claim he vehemently denies. Sheen also experienced a Major Medical<\/a> setback after he went off his hiv medications to seek treatments from a controversial doctor in mexico. But the actor went back on his original meds. Once one of the highest paid actor on television, these days sheen has a new line of emojis on itunes and he currently appears as a paid spokesman for a new brand of condoms. Theres a little detail they want no part of so they can avoid that by using this. How are you doing . Good. Good. Yeah. Physically, you good . Excellent, yeah. How about emotionally . You said to me candidly it was an enormous relief to be on this show seven months ago and say what you said. It was, it was like being released from prison. And what you and i created. I was trying to think of words last night to speak to what happened afterwards. Sorry, my voice is a little beat up. We unearthed the stepping stones to a rubicon of change. Ill give you the credit for that. I was going to say, thats a rubicon of change. That was good. You said to me on that morning people extorting you to keep the secret over the years. I asked you, were you still paying those people. You said not after this morning. So, have all those things gone away . It actually poured a little more gas on that fire that morning. Why, are there more secrets that people think they have over you . They can claim whatever they want. I know the truth. Yeah, but theyre all sort of going back to the wood work where they belong. One of the things that happened almost immediately. You were on the show and made that announcement. I asked you if you put anyone else at risk not informing them of your hiv status while having sex with them. You said risk and yet a lot of women came forward and disagreed with that. Youre facing lawsuits over that. Do they have merit . They do not. They do not. None of them. No one has been infected. No one. You were 100 honest with me that morning when i asked you that question. I was, indeed. Let me understand that this isnt some antics. You informed every partner that you had sex with of your hiv status or did you not inform some people but use protection . There were two examples. But protection was always in place. And it was for the right reasons because everyone that i had told up to that moment had shaken me down. You know. So, thats why you chose not to reveal your status to some people. Yes. These lawsuits i mentioned, i know you cant talk about the specifics. Theyre baseless. Are you confident. Yes, i am. You talked about something while we were here, pill fatigue. You were taking a cocktail of medications on a daily basis. Did you experience pill fatigue . I just first heard the term just now. Thats a great way to describe it. Yeah. Pill fatigue. Became tired of some of the side effects. Of the fact you had to take so many medications. Is that why you went to mexico to this controversial treatment . It is. And that, that didnt, that didnt go so well. That man is a criminal. Hes hurting a lot of good and decent people. The level of the virus went up in your blood while you were on his treatment. I went from 0 to 7,000. And has it completely reversed . Im undetectable as i sit here today. Taking part in fda trail. Third phase. How do you receiveme one shot per week, as opposed to pills every day. As a result, you have to because its a trial. Be very diligent in taking it at the same time. You travel with a doctor . Yeah, hes right there. You make sure youre getting your medication exactly when you should be getting it. Exactly. And the changes is not just physical, but its psychological, emotional. No depression and no shades of dementia. This is the future of treatment. What im doing now. I dont normally talk to people about personal finances. It is very personal. Are you okay . Are you financially sound . Yeah, im fine. Im fine. Its, you know, ebbs and flows. Im fine. You are involved in some child custody disputes right now over finances, is that correct . I guess. What else is new . Can you support . Of course i can. Of course i can. You have said that Charlie Sheen<\/a> does not live in regretville. Yes. Is there anything you regret, charlie . I regret, you know, not using a condom one or two times when this whole thing happened, you know. Yeah, i regret ruining two and a half men. I regret not being more involved in my childrens lives growing up, which i am now. Thats about it. Thats about the only things. Seems like you live a little bit in regret. A little bit. Yes, i do. We can only move forward from today. And they wouldnt call it the past if it wasnt. Good luck to you. Thank you. Good to see you. Always a pleasure. Thank you. Good luck. Lets head over to al for a check of the weather. Lets show you what we have going on. Heat. Excessive heat warnings and advisories and red flag advisories and warnings. Death valley and palm springs. Both over 120 degrees today. Dangerous heat and this big dome of High Pressure<\/a> pushing the jet stream way up to the north. Were expecting records today. Casp caspar, wyoming. 103 in pube leblo. And records possibly in wichita and also in roswel and very close in las vegas. The other big story were watching for tomorrow, a strong risk of Severe Weather<\/a>. 47 Million People<\/a> under risk of some storms tomorrow. Tornados and hail from chicago, milwaukee, ft. Wayne, almost as far east as detroit. Thats whats going on around the country. Heres whats happening in your neck of the woods. Good morning, im storm team 4 meteorologist chuck bell. A weather alert day today. Strong to severe storms will be a possibility. The timing 2 00 into the evening hours. Main threat t but brief periods of heavy rain and lightning are also quite the likelihood. Temperatures are already in the upper 70s to near 80 degrees. Storm team 4 radar and a few showers out here in the shenandoah and that will expand. Your rain chance today stands at 60 . Have your umbrella ready to go. Highs near 90. That is your latest weather. Savannah. It is time for trending and let us start with apple or what could be planned for the new iphone 7. Always interested in that. Reports that apple may finally ditch the famous and may i say beloved home button and replace it with a touch sensitive pad. You would have to tap and hold to get to siri and a double tap would allow you to see the app that you have open. Dont we have that now just with the button. Get rid of the button. I like the home button. I like it. I like it in the dark. You feel the button and you know whether the phone is up or careful. Exactly.

Reporter blanca is one of hundreds of people at risk for alzheimers now involved in a trial of a new drug that for the first time may slow or reverse the disease before symptoms occur. We have 65 sites. Reporter harvard neurologist dr. Lisa spurling is the lead researcher. Would you believe and others believe it is going to be a game changer. Why . Were trying to detect alzheimers disease before symptoms. Reporter heres how it works. Alzheimers is associated with heavy build up in the brain of a protein called amyloid. Seen here in orange and pink. Its linked to cognitive decline and memory loss. The drug administere amyloid build up in patients whose brains show Early Warning<\/a> signs. You can see these areas in orange and pink here that are building up amyloid in exactly the same brain regions that you see at the stage of alzheimers disease, dementia and these people are still healthy and our job is to prevent them from progressing over to this stage. Reporter the 3 1 2 year double blind study done here at Keck Medical Center<\/a> will monitor patients cognitive skills and brains. To see if those do better on the drug than the placebo. Youre looking for more than is 00 people to sign up and more women than men. Why . Women are more likely to be aaffected by alzheimers disease because they live longer and they have an increased risk due to interactions with genetics and biologic factors. We want to help people live their lives with their lives ball room dancing instead of in nursing homes. There may be things you can do now. Exercise, even breaking a sweat three times a week can boost your brain. So can what you eat. Your food choices are fundamentally important in choosing your brains destiny. Neurologist and bestselling author says a diet high in sugar and carbs, the kind americans love can lead to inflammation and the production of free radicals that may cause brain deterrieration. To protect the brain, he says, choose foods high in prebiotic fiber, antioxidants and good fats. It is never too late to change your diet and begin some aaerobic exercises. Research shows in our 70s and our 80s, we have the ability to increase the growth of new brain cells. While Lifestyle Changes<\/a> can help, experts say they are not an doctors hope more people like blanca volunteer for Clinical Trials<\/a> so science can get closer to this devastating disease. I want to make a difference for myself a my spouse and my kids and anyone who has this awful illness. Researchers say they need the publics help in volunteering for these studies. Theyre conducted at medical centers all across the country and to find out how you can join one, including the a4 study which is still looking for hundreds of participants, go to today.

Picked a bad morning to be off because we had a heck of a show. Our by the queen of pop, Meghan Trainor<\/a>. We have been talking about how her sound has sort of, she does everything. Little bit of that. Retro. Such a funky kind of style. It was. They loved it. She rocked the plaza all morning long. She performed some old hits and some new hits off her sophomore album thank you. Shell join us at our table. She got her start here. Were really proud to claim her one of our own. Wed like to say we claim her fame, but we cant. We like to help build them up to take their first steps out in the world. Then they go off and fly and hopefully they come back and remember us. She does. She does. She really does. Absolutely. Cavs have returned home. What a Victorious Way<\/a> to come home. The Cleveland Cavaliers<\/a> greeted by thousands of their fans as they came off that plane yesterday. Lebron holding trophy. A trophy theyve been wanting for 52 years. A championship the first for the cavs and first really for any professional team in cleveland since 1964. But they didnt hear that all that often, right . My gosh. Kind of a little dig to golden state. Lebron is wearing a shirt that says ultimate warrior. Take that. Big parade set for tomorrow. There is. No details yet. I want to go. I mean, i lived in cleveland for five years. No details yet. Its going to be huge. In cleveland. In fact, during the game, they basically shut downtown down. They closed off the highways and everything because people streamed down there to watch the game. Im guessing theyll do that again tomorrow. It is going to be massive. No sooner does he get home than the conversation already started. What does he do next . Where is he going . He made good on his promise. Hes bringing a championship home to cleveland. Boy, did they deliver. He can act. We saw the train wreck. Theres talk about him maybe forming a super team in l. A. Question is, could he go there . The lakers would certainly love to have him. Could he go back to miami heat or even the knicks . The knicks need him. The knicks need a talented player. My gosh. What a concept. Please, lebron, think about us in new york. Listen. My heart is in two places. I do love cleveland. I think as long as he stays, thats great. Keep giving cleveland some trophies and championships. The browns are next. All right, here we go. Couple of exciting stories about the future. One of my favorite cartoons. Take a look. Because of this. This is the past, though. The jetsons. The flying car, ladies and gentlemen. One of my favorite cartoons. Rosie. I mean, come on, elroy. I would love to rewatch it now and see all that is actually happening. Judy. Jane his wife. Jane, jane, jane stop this crazy thing here we are. Were no closer to flying cars, or are we . A Massachusetts Company<\/a> earned an exemption sunday from the faa. Its flying car can be classified as a light sport aircraft. Seats two people. You can fly with a sport license which requires 20 hours of lessons. Just 20 hours . What could go wrong there. These type of flying car be for sale in the next decade. So, wait. Drones have an issue, but flying cars are going to be okay. No problem. No problem. Just 20 hours of flying lessons. Youre on the lie, things are a little just go. You just kind of wings out. Assuming you have enough room to take off. I cant even imagine. Can you imagine that here in new york. All the skyscrapers and everything. Flying through. If we had a delorian, we wouldnt have to worry about roads. This your next segue. You better back up. We dont have enough roads to get to 88. Roads. Where were going, we dont need roads. This is also part of the past. Exactly. Biff. B future. You can take that delorean. What is that . Its just a car we had. Oh, it does have wings. That is very nice. What if you could take that flying car. You could fly from london to new york in 2 1 2 hours. In a car . In a new plane. Not a concorde. The flash falcon. Double decker plane that looks sort of like a spaceship. It reaches about 2,300 miles per hour. Seats 250 people. The concorde was about half that speed. About 100 people. That is really cool. Thats right. Face pushed back into the seats the whole time. Could become a reality in the next 15 years. I would be one of the first people. See how that works. New york to london in 2 1 2 hours. The flight from new york to london is not long enough for a nap hardly. Five hours. Five hours. By the time you like watch a movie, you have a meal, you want a nap, you cant even get a nap in. Are you really complaining that you cant i came here from london to new york and i cant take a nap. I need a sevenhour flight. You make a good point, though. Okay. Heres a concept. Do it when you get home. Well, sometimes theres no time. Youre going you are on a plane and you have nothing else to do. Why not take a nap . Because they got rid of all the books. I read a lot on the planes, too. And then i nap. They do have good movies on planes now. They do. Ive seen every single movie by now. Speaking of which, technology on vacation. I tried to make that transition and it didnt work the way you do it. So, when you are o flight, are you able to turn your phone off when you actually get there . Never. I think a lot of people want to. I try not to check it as much. At the end of the day ill look at it. I think its hard for us to do. When im on vacation anything can kind of happen and you always have to sort of be plugged in. 55 of people who want to unplug say theyre just simply not able to. I think were all included in that. Of the people who do turn off, 65 say that they found their vacation was more enjoyable, which makes sense. I love when you get the emails from people who know youre on vacation. I know youre on vacation, but, you know, what do you think of you know im on vacation why are you emailing me something i dont need to answer right away . Because im more important than you are. Answer my emails. So, this goes to the whole thought of when your minds are unloaded and youre kind of detached from everything for a little e. Most Creative Ideas<\/a> . In the shower, going for a run . Walking. Walking my dog, yes. Mine is like right when im laying in bed and i wake up in the middle of the night i have these brain storm ideas. I want to pitch this story and i cant wait and the next morning i wake up and that was so stupid. Its just dumb. Seemed like a good idea then. Yes. Were you dreaming it . Flaming orbs of something. What was that . What was his joke . I dont remember. I was asleep at the time. It will come to me. When youre sleeping. All of a sudden this brilliant flash bulb. And ill tell you and think the next morning that was a bad idea. That is the end of my topic. Now, that was a smooth transition. Over to you. When i first started in this business and i worked with a sports guy named jack morris and he started with newspapers and stuff. And the timing thing. So when the clock and little lights went out and he would just stop in the middle of the story and, thats as far as i go. I didnt do that story. There you go. And you have to add, thats as far as i go. Its all about the look, right . The lean in and look. Speaking of, we want to ask you, we were launching a whole new thing called look what i can do or look what i can do. What can i launch . Hey, look what i can launch. Weve had a lot of celebrity guests whove impressed us with their talents in the past. Brooke shields was able to open a beer. She opened a beer with her forearm. Jane awesome on roler skates and she can do the splits on a Broadway Mark<\/a> road a pogostick. Why does he spell that phonetically. And grant can tap dance. So, whats going on . We want you we want to see your hidden talents whether its brilliant stupid human tricks. If you have a stupid human trick. Send us your videos. Three lucky viewers can perform on our talent show here and get a chance to compete for a trip to l. A. On americas got talent. Thats about all i got. Thats as far as i go. Wait, i have to have the right camera. I dont think thats going to help. Your turn, al. Your turn. Our hidden talent is making time stand still. Anyway, lets show you what we have going on.

Jacksonville, 100 degrees. 97 in Oklahoma City<\/a> and vegas will be 109. Plus, tomorrow, were also watching, this is very, very potentially dangerous. Weve got 47 Million People<\/a> under some sort of risk for severe storms. But the worst area is going to be from milwaukee, chicago, ft. Wayne and just to the west of detroit into northwestern ohio. Tornados and large hail likely. This will probably be tomorrow afternoon into tomorrow evening. We will be watching this extremely carefully. Thats whats going on around the country, hey, look at the huge crowd weve got in here. Heres whats happening in your neck of the woods. We got a little sunshine here in washington. Its warm temperatures up considerably. Already 85 in lorton and 83 in washington now. It will be a warm up. Temperatures up near 90 for highs today. Little light rain down across central and Northern Virginia<\/a> now. That is headed into Southern Maryland<\/a> over the next little bit.

I got to set up with matthew and gary ross and some of the stars of the movie. From this day forward we declare the land north to be a free state of jones. Reporter the civil war is the most written about period and one of the most revolutionary men of the time has barely been heard of. Die for. Played by Matthew Mcconaughey<\/a> was a poor white father and soldier and abandoned the southern cause and along with slaves and whites performed his own free state in jones county, mississippi. Has a very clear identity of right and wrong. Very clear understanding of justice and injustice. Ive never heard this story. Had you ever heard this .

He deeded her 160 acres of land which made rachel one of the very few land owning woman and such a respectful, loving relationship. Matthew, this vein running through a lot of your work that there is a civil injustice and redemption. One of the things that attracted you to this particular role . I like the outcast. I like the man who wage a war based on his own ideals. When i first read the script, i was like, wow, this would be a movie worth making, even if it was fiction. And it wasnt. You filmed a lot of this in louisiana. A lot of it takes place in the swamp. And while watching it, i mean, that does not look comfortable. It was uncomfortable but we could not have done this piece on a sound stage. I know theyre roles, but i would think doing a piece like this still has to affect you somehow. This is hard stuff. But this isnt call of duty, this is knowing the truth hurts and the truth burns. But thats what were trying to do. And it will continue to go on. True words.
