Abcs jon karl reporting on all the fireworks. Good morning, jon. Reporter good morning. Trump certainly isnt toning anything down. He is calling his fellow republicans lightweight, losers, idiots, dummies, desperate and those are fellow republicans hes talking about. Now even president obama is weighing in on donald trump. Im sure the republicans are enjoying mr. Trumps current dominance of their primary. Anything that makes them look less crazy. [ laughter ] reporter trump has become a oneman wrecking crew in the republican primary hurling insult after insult at his republican rivals. Not just john mccain, rick perry. He put glasses on so people will think hes smart. Reporter and Lindsey Graham. Then you have this guy Lindsey Graham. A total lightweight. Heres a guy in the private sector he couldnt get a job, believe me. Reporter trump told the crowd graham called him a few years ago, asking for help. And he then gave out grahams phone number on national television. Lets try it, 202 [ bleep ] reporter graham got bombarded with calls and went on twitter saying hes getting a new phone. As for war hero, john mccain hes trying to stay above the fray. He says youve been a disaster for veterans. Well, i mean i think my record speaks for itself, jon. Reporter trump has nothing on his schedule today, george. Maybe just maybe giving some of the other candidates a chance to get a little attention. We will see, okay, jon, thanks very much. Trumps rally did steal some of the spotlight from the newest candidate, Ohio Governor john kasich, he launched his campaign in columbus tuesday becoming the 16th republican in the race and right after the speech i asked him to explain what sets him apart from the rest of the pack. I dont think i want to get into how im better. Im just going to say that my record is unique in the field, you know, National Security experience, you remember the days of the balancing the budget in washington which hasnt been done since we walked on the moon and hasnt been done since and turn around a really, really big and important state from almost disaster, to where were prospering. Second, george, youve known me for a long time. You think i got to work hard to distinguish myself . I just am who i am, right . I have fun and im running for president of the united states.

You think your party is ready to accept that message . I guess that doesnt matter, does it . I mean, thats my message. A new poll out today shows youre at 2 . I kind of went up. I doubled, huh . Donald trump at 24 . How do you explain that . I dont think about it, george. Look, i have paid no attention to that whole business. I just dont. I paid a dont you have to . No, no, i paid a lot of attention to the british open, glad to see that guy from iowa won. That was good. If he gets the nomination, can you support him .

I said, why dont you say that publicly. He said, are you crazy . Were not going to give you publicity. I think the battle against hillary who has the biggest and largest vision for the country. I think she sometimes is really too narrow. As you said yourself, you can be tough sometimes. To someone who questions whether you have the temperament to be president. Look, we have a lot of fun but i got to tell you im not some marshmallow. Im no pushover. Wouldnt get these things done if you were. But it takes toughness, some humor. It takes a lot of different things. Whats the single most important thing you want someone whos never seen you before to know about john kasich . That i care about them. I want them to have a good life. I want their kids to have a good life. The people who get up in the morning, play by the rules, go home, love their family and say their prayers for their neighbors, for their family and for our country. Governor kasich, thank you. You know, he says hes really driven by his faith. He had a dramatic transformation after his parents with killed in a car accident back in 1987 and thats fueled him ever since.

And what if this happened again . I was given warfarin in the hospital but i wondered if this was the right treatment for me. Then my doctor told me about eliquis. Eliquis treats dvt and pe blood clots and reduces the risk of them happening again. Not only does eliquis treat dvt and pe blood clots but eliquis also had significantly less major bleeding than the standard treatment. Knowing eliquis had both. Turned around my thinking. Dont stop eliquis unless your doctor tells you to. Eliquis can cause serious and in rare cases fatal bleeding. Dont take eliquis if you have an artificial heart valve or abnormal bleeding. If you had a spinal injection while on eliquis call your doctor right away if you have tingling numbness, or muscle weakness. While taking eliquis, you may bruise more easily. And it may take longer than usual for bleeding to stop. Seek immediate medical care for sudden signs of bleeding, like unusual bruising. Eliquis may increase your bleeding risk if you take certain medicines. Tell your doctor about all planned medical or dental procedures. Eliquis treats dvt pe blood clots. Plus had less major bleeding. Both made switching to eliquis right for me. Ask your doctor if its right for you. Dove invited women to a makeover. With a difference. Hi maam. Hi.

A firefighter accused of killing the husband of his alleged lover. He is scheduled to appear in court today and abcs Kayna Whitworth has the story. Reporter this morning, california firefighter Jonathan Hearn is set 0 to go before a judge accused of killing his lovers husband in a love trieningle turned deadly. At the center, sabrina limon.

Abc news, los angeles. The latest on bill cosby. His lawyer as attacking the bombshell release of that bombshell deposition in a new court filing asking them to keep the legal settlement secret. Monique pressley standing by after this from abcs linsey davis. Reporter this morning, bill cosbys legal team is fighting back against the release of a thousandpage deposition from 20050 where cosby described sexual encounters with at least five women and fighting to keep details of a 2006 settlement with a Temple University employee, private. He talks specifically about what he said was a consensual romantic relationship with Andrea Constand who filed a lawsuit claiming he drugged and sexually assaulted her. His lawyers argued it should have remained sealed. According to the deposition the once beloved comedian says constand was special to him saying he didnt want to have intercourse with her because andrea i dont want to fall in love with me. Cosby saying he had access to phones not in his name to call constand, telling his wife he was sending constand payments to help her and cosby describes the quaaludes in his testimony as the drug young people were using to party, saying i wanted to have them just in case. This is incredibly damning in the court of public opinion. But as a legal matter, it may not make much of a difference. Reporter never charged with sexual assault, cosby settled the constand case out of court. A source previously telling abc news he only did so to save his family embarrassment. Constand is one of more than two dozen women hes been accused of assaulting and or drugging. Something cosbys team has always denied. For Good Morning America, linsey davis, abc news, new york. Thanks, linsey. We are joined by one of mr. Cosbys attorneys, monique pressley. Thanks for joining us this morning, miss pressley. Thanks for having me. Why is it so important to keep this settlement secret . The entire reason that parties enter into confidential agreements for settlement, the entire reason that parties settle is because they come together and agree on mutual terms and once those terms are violated, then its the entire agreement that loses its purpose. Is there anything more you can do now that the deposition is out there . There are a thousand plus pages that are available of mr. Cosby in his own words and what were seeing so far are headlines that are grabbing one excerpt or two and then misinterpreting them when the deposition said that there was use of quaaludes, which was quaaludes which was done often in the 70s, it was considered a party drug called disco biscuits and it was something that was used frequently, not just by mr. Cosby, but other entertainers. Let me ask you about that. More than two dozen women have come forward to say they were sexually assaulted by him. Some claimed they were drugged. Is it your position mr. Cosby never gave a woman drugs without her knowledge . In fact, what were looking at now is a situation where we started with a man who had not been charged with a crime who has not been convicted of a crime but instead has been accused of criminal activity. In fact, miss pressley at one point in the deposition when asked, when bill cosby is asked if theresa was in a position to consent to sexual intercourse after being given quaaludes in 1976 he said i dont know. What he was speaking to in the deposition is her state of mind, which no person as you know can testify to, i cant say whether someone else feels a certain way or thinks a certain way. All of these women, more than two dozen women, all of these women are liars . Im not making conclusions and you know that i cant about whether someone is lying or not. What i am saying is that mr. Cosby has denied the accusations that have been lodged thus far. The sheer volume or number of people who are saying a particular thing does not make it true. This is happening in the court of public opinion. If mr. Cosby believes that all of these charges are untrue and he believes it so strongly why not come out publicly now and say so . Its not a question of belief. As i said previously mr. Cosby has through his attorneys from the beginning denied the accusations against him. If anyone is being defamed right now through media, through celebrity onlookers, through others, its mr. Cosby. So we wont be seeing any more public statements on this matter from mr. Cosby . I would anticipate that in the cases that are still ongoing that you will see statements because when there are filings by the attorneys those are statements on mr. Cosbys behalf and i do hope that as those things are filed, that those who are responsible for putting out information will take a good, hard look at them and then report on whats actually being filed in court. Because thats the only place where we can actually see some measure of justice. Miss pressley, thanks very much for your time this morning. Thank you. They are fighting back hard right now. To ginger for the weather. Will you look at that funnel cloud in arkansas. Lots of reports of funnel clouds. These are a different type of funnel cloud than we usually see. A cold air funnel cloud.

But a simple breakdown on the side of a busy highway can turn deadly for anyone. This recent accident near philly killed a 58yearold man. The man had his thrashers on examining his disabled vehicle when struck by a passing dump truck. Reporter in just one year nearly 400 people hit and killed. The danger appearing in an instant.

Is the promise of prolonged fertility too good to be true . That question is examined in the latest issue of Time Magazine and abcs Mara Schiavocampo has our story. Just how i feel reporter egg freezing, one of the Fastest Growing trends in fertility. Multiplying tenfold in the last 5 years for more than 500 in 2009 to just under 5,000 in 2013. The number of eggs being thawed for use quadrupling. Big Companies Like apple and facebook even announcing theyll start covering the procedure. The idea that you can solve this unsolvable problem of the biological clock is very appealing to many women. Reporter but with a price tag of 10,000 to 15,000, not including egg storage, Time Magazine set out to answer a very simple question in an article and online video. How effective is freezing your eggs . That was really empowering to know that i took fate into my own hands. Reporter times Extensive Research finding while the procedure may give women a sense of security about that reproductive future, it might not always work that well. Reporting of the 414 eggs thawed in 2013, 99 babies were born, a rate of just under 24 . And with a few eggs lost at each step of the process, its estimated each egg has just a 2 to 12 chance of resulting in a live birth. Is this an effective insurance policy . It just isnt an insurance policy. If you have Home Insurance and your house burns down, you get a new house. You dont maybe get a new house. You dont get 24 of a new house. Reporter for Good Morning America, Mara Schiavocampo, abc news, new york. And our dr. Jen ashton is here right now. And youre going to do a little demonstration to show just how big a challenge it is. This is a very safe process. Its very effective but its not a guarantee. And let me show you what i mean. Typically when we do a stimulation cycle for a womans ovaries, well get about 15 to 20 eggs extracted from a young woman. Now, then those have to be frozen and thawed, not all will survive that process. Lets say you wind up with this much. Then these are fertilized and become embryos and have to grow to a certain Cell Division stage and have to be tested theyre healthy enough to implant. Not all will survive this stage and then in this country, we typically dont transfer or implant more than one or two fertilized embryos into a womans uterus. From this you hope to get one or two live births. So are the chances better if you freeze the embryos rather than the eggs . The egg freezing process is a little more challenging, but it is safe. Its effective. The rates are all over the place. Some Historical Context here, george, remember up until 2012, this was considered an experimental process, so while its happening more and more, were still learning so much more about the technology and its only getting better. So, youre an ob gyn. When a woman comes to you and says, im thinking about this, what do you tell her . I ask why. You have to listen. This is a long discussion. It depends on several factors. It depends on her age. This conversation will be different for a 25yearold and a 35yearold. It depends on medical issues. Has she just been diagnosed with cancer . Does she have severe endometriosis or does she have premature menopause and then social issues have to be balanced with risks, benefits and options. And fertility, something men have to think about too. Men oftentimes ignore it throughout the process so i tell both partners they both need to keep certain things in mind. Number one, dont get bogged down on stats. So easy to get overwhelmed with percentages. Keep yourself healthy. That includes not smoking. Thats bad for sperm and eggs and stay positive. This is a marathon, not a sprint. All good advice. Jen ashton, thanks very much. Read a lot more about this topic in the Current Issue of Time Magazine. Now to robin. All right, thank you. Next on the heat index, some truly dramatic weight loss stories. Women who each lost over 100 pounds.

Its definitely important to unplug, however, we also want to be realistic about the culture and the time that we live in. Reporter tip number two, take a break from the gadgets that rule regular life. Dont set an alarm. Limit email to just one burst per day or cold turkey. This boss has a policy. Go away. Not just email, nick. You are prohibited from contacting anybody at work. You shouldnt be calling me. Shame on you. Reporter tip number three, plan well in advance. Anticipation is half the fun and plan a happy ending. What we remember most about vacation is how it ends and a memory like this will help the happiness last longer.

I know you speak french as do i. Touche, touche. Forgot the accent aigu. There is a reason i said touche. There is a new french language of scrabble champion. He does not, though, speak a word of french. Nigel richards is from new zealand, and he kicked butt. He has rewritten or i should say respelled history at the Federation Internationale scrabble francophone. [ speaking french ] he memorized almost every word in the french scrabble dictionary even though he cannot speak it and then he beat out a true french speaker with a triple word score. It was a threehour showdown. At one point he played a word that most french havent even heard it. Its called enouah. It is a verb that means to remove knots, of course. You didnt know that . [ speaking french ] merci. Oui. I dont know what you said but oui. I dont know how to spell it, though. I dont know how to spell any of it. Its incredible what that guy did. So, he was met with like massive applause when he won. But then when he went up to thank the audience, he needed a translator. Ooh. Cest la vie. And then finally, some say that what youre about to see is the smartest pooch on the planet. This is an internet sensation. He figures out exactly how to get what he wants without the inconvenience of getting wet. Why would this guy want to do that . Whoa who needs to doggie paddle when they can go macgyver and use a kiddie pool as a flotation device to get the beloved tennis ball he so wanted. Genius. But can he speak french .

Kevin james is adorable in every moment that he had was just i dont know 50s infection. Hes an infect house comedian. I had the pleasure to know you when you were on 30 rock. One of my favorite shows and that was a great cast. I wonder what it must be like to work with kevin who is naturally so funny. You know every time hes on our show i never know what he might say next. Was it like that for you in scenes. Yes, all of them were. There was a lot of improv on the set.

When youre not being a movie star youre you know just on this incredible show the Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt with your team from 30 rock led by tina fey. Did i hear the word emmy. Im sorry, what . Say it again. No weve been so we were so lucky that the show has been received so nicely now that its streaming on netflix and just having the best time. It was like a homecoming because i would say 95 of the crew and all the creative departments were from 30 rock. How wonderful to have that sort of comfortability. Tina is so amazing and Everyone Wants to stay working with her so everyone came back. The show is hilarious and this movie so great. Finally, were you just in a dinner for the movie and Martha Stewart and you became like new besties. Martha stewart is so funny in this movie. Shes hilarious.

It took Tim Morehouse years to master the perfect lunge. But only one attempt to master depositing checks at chase atms. Technology designed for you. So you can easily master the way you bank. Please welcome back katie holmes here to Good Morning America. She is starring in the new season of showtimes hit series ooh, i love this ray donovan,sdonovan, s as a chic cut throat sports agent who gets tangled up with liv schreiber. About the other day i think we can both agree that it wasnt the best use of your time. And this is. Well its my understanding that we bought your company and your services in their entirety. I like how uyou i do believe that what drew you to this role . Well ive been a fan of the show and i met with the wonderful creator for the season and they told me about this character and i just i thought it was really interesting for where the show was and for lievs character and a chance to play someone a little different than ive ever played then they told me about the braces on her character and im like im in. Okay. Thats the number one thing people wanted me to ask you. Is it going to be revealed why you are wearing braces . I mean here you are this cut throat chic and all not that wearing braces means you cant be that but whats the reason behind it . I think its definitely a to show that paige while she does look like she has everything sort of in order, she still is flawed and literally the braces are because she has migraine headaches and that helps them and but definitely we wanted to impart right away that you know shes a complicated character and shes not exactly what you see. Uhhuh and it started this own. Bracesgate. People wanted to know about that. As i was saying. I enjoy following you on instagram and unlike you i like throwback thursdays and you put up the 1998 Rolling Stones cover dawens creek swinging on the tire like that. The tire swing. A lot of people when they see that oh could there be a reunion in the making . Do you think that will happen ever. I think wed all have a great time doing it. Our final our finale was took place five years after, anyway so i dont know that i dont know. I mean its a wonderful question to be asked and we had a wonderful time making it so well see. I know because a lot of people thats how they got to know you. And we shot in wilmington North Carolina, which was so beautiful. Yeah. So great. Well hopefully you would be able to fit it in your busy busy schedule. You optioned the book thats going to make its novel debut all we had. What is it about the story you wanted to bring it to the screen and youre wearing so many hats and being involved with the production. Yeah well right now im in development. Im bringing that project to screen and i think its just full of these really rich characters and its always fun to look at books to find characters as opposed to just reading scripts and really being proactive. So im always doing that so im really excited. Its a mother daughter story filled with a lot of characters that are very colorful and theres a lot of humor but its very touching without being sentimental. Okay and are you working with jane. Jane rosenthal . I am. Our friend jane. Oh my goodness. You continue to surround yourself with good people like that but you have all these different roles with that and jackie o. . Yes, im going to play jackie o. Again this spring which im very excited about. Its the later years and, you know when jackie moved to new york and whats the most challenging aspect of playing an iconic figure like that. I think you know so many people have a connection to this icon and so you really have to honor your interpretation and not imitate too much but really kind of make it your own and im just really flattered and honored to embody her because she was incredible. Yeah youve done it so well. Thank you. Katie, always a pleasure to see you. Keep enjoying the summer. Eating strawberries flopping in the water. I saw the video and ray donovan airs sunday nights on showtime. Glad that youre a part of that. Next up on gma, a teenager going above and beyond to help his community. What he says what he did thats helping so many kids succeed. Come on back. And we are back now with gmas get out and give. We showcase people making a difference all across the country. Part of abcs be inspired initiative. This mornings inspiration a teen who turned his try for a scout badge into a mission to teach young kids. Pete the cat put on his favorite shirt. Open the door. Up the stairs. Dinosaur clean and dine schauer slimy. Ooh. Reporter this isnt the way most 16yearolds would spend their morning. But ryan trainer isnt your average teen. Put your right arm in and then you shake it all about in get to see the joy on the kids faces. Do the hokeypokey reporter he was 11 when he started volunteering through his local library in redwood city going into schools reading to children to earn a boy scout merit badge. He quickly found out one book could speak volumes to kids in need. Most of the kids in our community dont have access to books on a regular basis. You know one of the things that really makes a tremendous difference in developing early reading skills and being able to succeed in school is the presence of books in the home. Just a kid himself ryan decided to make a difference organizing a book drive. What sets ryan apart is that not only did he read to the children he saw a need in the community which was books for the homes and he did something about it. And week after week the boxes of books kept piling up. Ryan doesnt like to do sthipgs small. His parents could hardly believe it. Our entire backyard was full of nothing but books and people. Reporter after six months 25,000 books. Super excited, yeah. Reporter all going to 12 charities, 8 schools and 7 literacy programs prompting pages and pages of handwritten thank you notes from a whole new generation of readers. Its hard to measure the impact. The number of books that he has placed in hands of people that did not have any books is overwhelming. Reporter but, remember ryan doesnt like to do anything small. When the book drive was over he took that as an opportunity to continue on. He didnt look at it as, okay im done now. Reporter he brought others on board. Now we have nine different teens from seven different schools who Work Together to help improve literacy rates in the community. Reporter started new programs teaching math and science and financial literacy. Jump up and down start shaking. Reporter new chapters of his Youth Literacy Council is open and it all began with just one boy scout badge. Ryan is a wonderful kid and im just so proud of him. I think hes figured out that you get out more than you actually put in as a volunteer. When people hear my story i want them to think about how everybody really wants to help. The end. [ applause ] you know it really only takes one person. The truth. Go ryan. I love that smile. I love what hes done. You all can learn a lot more about abcs be inspired.
