To washington now where special Counsel Robert Mueller is set to deliver his long delayed testimony to two congressional committees tomorrow. Mueller, the Justice Department, both parties in congress jockeying ahead of the blockbuster hearing and our senior Congressional Correspondent mary bruce, chief justice correspondent Pierre Thomas covering all the preparations. Pierre, let me begin with you. Overnight the Justice Department sent a letter to mueller trying to set limits on his testimony. Reporter george, good morning. Thats right. Overnight the Justice Department sent mueller a letter warning him he should not go beyond the public version of his report and, george, quote, that any testimony must remain within the boundaries of that document. The letter bluntly states that his testimony is unnecessary. The bottom line for mueller strictly no adlibbing. But, george, that said, the report is 400 pages with reams of materials including a list of potential acts of obstruction by the president and the details of how the russians attacked the 2016 election and how the Trump Campaign responded. Very few americans have actually read the full report, so the stakes are high. In a little more than 24 hours all of official washington will come to a standstill with much of the country watching, george. No question about that. What do we know about what Robert Mueller is doing to prepare for this testimony . Reporter hes been prepping with a small team of former staffers from the special counsels office in a space provided by his former law firm in washington. His spokesman told me yesterday, quote, if you know Robert Mueller, hes going to come prepared. Ive been speaking to sources that have worked with mueller in the past and they say his preparations for congressional testimony typically involves hours of mock hearings and rehearsals. George, he will be giving an Opening Statement prior to taking questions from the two house committees. The countdown to his testimony now under way, george. Hes had a lot of practice. Some dozens and dozens of appearances before congressional committees. Okay, pierre. Lets bring in our senior Congressional Correspondent mary bruce for more and how congress is preparing. Mary, both sides taking this seriously. Reporter george, democrats and republicans are spending hours preparing for this behind closed doors. Democrats today are potentially holding their own mock hearing with a staff member sitting in to play mueller. But with mueller, george, promising to stick to the report, both sides know theyre not likely to get any new bombshells here so their strategy instead is to simply try to shine a light on the findings. Democrats want to show viewers at home who may not have read the full 448page report, they want them to hear for themselves directly from mueller what democrats believe is the president s misconduct. While republicans are eager to shine a light on the areas of report that they feel clear the president. But as you mentioned mueller is very experienced at this. It will be his 89th time testifying on the hill. He is known for very short often oneword responses. The challenge for these lawmakers is to draw out the answers theyre looking for. We will see more of that tomorrow. Meantime, mary, on another Front Congress and the white house seem to at least the congressional leadership has struck a deal with the white house that would basically set the spending limits for the rest of President Trumps first term. Reporter yeah, george. This was getting close to the wire up here but the president and congressional leaders have reached this sweeping twoyear budget deal that will raise the debt ceiling long enough to postpone any new budget showdown until after the president ial election. This took weeks of negotiating between the House Speaker nancy pelosi and the treasury secretary. In fact, Speaker Pelosi was spotted on an airplane still on her cell phone hammering out the fine print. The final deal here though would raise military and domestic spending by 320 billion but it does little to address the ballooning deficit. The president , though, says this is a real compromise and congress is expected to act on this here in the coming days. Mary bruce, thanks very much. Tomorrow morning ill anchor our live coverage of muellers testimony with our whole political team. It starts at 8 30 eastern. Cecilia . We turn to the latest on those tensions with iran. The iranians releasing new images they claim are cia officers running a network of spies in iran, a claim President Trump flatly disputes. Our chief Global Affairs correspondent Martha Raddatz is tracking the latest on all this. Good morning, martha. Reporter good morning, cecilia. The cia would never publicly identify its officers but the images and names that iran has released puts those individuals in danger, whether they worked for the cia or not. The images which we have blurred were released as part of what the iranians claim is a network of spies. The iranians say the largely western looking men had recruited iranian nationals working in sensitive positions to obtain information for the the iranians men they claimed worked for the cia, some matching current or former state department employees. I read a report today about cia. Thats totally a false story. Thats another lie. They put out propaganda. They put out lies. Reporter this comes as the first images of those crew members from the British Oil Tanker seized by the iranians, the crew of the ship now in port in southern iran, armed iranian guard Corps Members checking out the ship as soon as it docked. This after that dramatic takeover of the ship by iranian commandos with a warning to the commercial vessel to turn around. Change your course to 360, 360 degrees immediately. If you obey, you will be safe, rappelngown momentthmmandos were the british now urgently trying to get that tanker crew and the ship released but so far the iranians are not budging, george. Martha raddatz, thanks. We now have breaking news overseas. Boris johnson, a conservative firebrand often compared to President Trump, has just been voted the next Prime Minister for great britain. Our Foreign Correspondent ian pannell is in london with more on what this means. Good morning, ian. Reporter yeah, good morning, george. An earthquake, indeed, and so many similarities with President Trump. Johnson once said this, my chances of being Prime Minister are about as good as the chances of finding elvis on mars. But just now he has been chosen to be the next leader of his party and, therefore, Prime Minister. Usually controversial and divisive, johnson is a populist who plays to the crowds as a posh bumbling joker never shy when things go wrong in front o lohe mh johnson. Is opponents his a philanderer, unfaithful in marriage. Hes been accused of racist remarks and a man of no fixed principle. One of his former bosses even saying this about johnson, he wouldnt recognize the truth if confronted by it in an identity parade. But President Trump says that he thinks the two of them would have a very Good Relationship and as the british prepare to leave the european union, boy, does britain need america right now. Johnson has some huge hurdles to leap over, though. Just like his predecessor, above all, delivering brexit and cementing that special relationship with the u. S. And getting a desperately needed trade deal. So Boris Johnson will become the next Prime Minister, elvis not yet found on mars, george. Ian pannell, thanks very much. Turbulent times ahead. Robin .

[ applause ] thats pop news. Not a pour decision. Lifted our spirits. Thank you, lara. We have our gma cover story now. The new way the fda is trying to put a stop to the vaping epidemic. 3. 6 million teens are smoking ecigarettes. Now the fda has launched a new series of psas to try to explain the dangers in a way teens will understand. Janai norman has more. If you vape youre more likely to start smoking cigarettes. Reporter this morning the fda is trying to turn the tide on teen vaping. Some people think that vaping is no big deal but that is just an illusion. Reporter with new ads called the real cost youth ecigarette prevention campaign. The message is part of an ongoing effort to reach nearly 10. 7 million at risk youth through tv, social media and inschool ads across the nation. The goal, to keep teens ages 12 to 19 from using ecigs. I dont want to try this. Reporter even prevent them from starting to vape in the first place. We now know conclusively that kids who start using ecigarettes are far more likely to go on to smoke cigarettes. Reporter the new ads called magic features street magician julius dean who magically turns a teens ecigarette or vape pen into a conventional cigarette. It shows how teens who vape are more likely to start smoking real cigarettes. They think it leads to cigarettes. Reporter some ecigs and vape pens have come under fire for marketing that critics say ames to young people alarming parents and health professionals. Like traditional cigarette, ecigs contain nicotine which is addictive. Nicotine to the developing brain is harmful and increases the likelihood that theyll become lifelong addicts. Reporter the juul ceo apologizing to parents of kids using his companys product, recently telling cnb its not intended for them. I hope there was nothing that we did that made it appealing to them. As a parent of a 16yearold, im sorry for them and i have empathy for them in terms of what the challenges theyre going through. Reporter for good morning america, im janai norman, abc news, new york. Our thanks to janai. Dr. Jen ashton is here. Before we start discussing, lets bring in the audience here. Raise your hand if you or pleaseai your hand if you. Know okay, keep your hand up if that person is 21 years old or younger. Wow. Look. The hands are still up. Robin, we have some young people there, both their hands went up so i think we need to understand and be crystal clear, we are not talking about adults using ecigs here. We are talking about kids, teens, young adults with developing brains and statistics are telling us that as many as one in five High School Kids have used an ecig in the last month so this is a major issue. Okay, we know about nicotine and we know about other chemicals but youre also saying there are behavioral aspects we have to be concerned about. Absolutely and we have to understand that they were designed to help people wean off of traditional cigarettes and evolved into something very, very different. And to say part of it is marketing and advertising that that wasnt the intent is kind of like the shakespeare line me thinks the lady doth protest too much but when you talk about behavioral effects we have to remember the developing brain exquisitely sensitive to chemicals. We know nicotine is highly addictive that can result in a lack of concentrating and absolutely can be a gateway. People who say its not are burying their heads in the sand and can result in difficulty with impulse control. Not something that we need more of in a teenager or a young adult. How can parents know if their child is doing it because you dont robin, first of all, dont put your head in the sand. Im a parent of two young adults and will tell you almost all their friends including athletes are using ecigs. But i want you to look at this. These are what some of the cartridges look like. They almost look like flash drives. So if youre a parent you can say, i dont know what that how harmful can that be . I think the key is ask, listen to the answer, observe your childs behavior and dont be in denial. Great advice there. All right. Thank you so much. Celi great advice. Okay, robin, thanks. We turn to an explosive night on the bachelorette. No one holding back on the men tell all episode which kicked off with a surprising twist involving the seasons socalled villain luke p. Abcs Abbie Boudreau is taking us behind the scenes for it all. Hey, abbie. Reporter good morning, cecilia. Right when we thought wed seen the last of luke p. , hes back and causing more drama than ever. Last nights episode of the bachelorette brought our favorite suitors back together in an explosive men tell all beginning with luke p. Who was sent packing just last week. Hannah thought after sending me in the van that theres no way id want to be with her anymore. Shes sadly mistaken. She doesnt realize that i still love her and that im not through. Reporter the audience of the men tell all in shock. She doesnt know it yet, but im on my way. I want to prove to her how serious i am about this. Reporter but when hannah sees him, love is not in the air. Why are you here . I need to talk to you. No. She said, no, bro. Just fall back in line, man. Just go, ive already go. Hannah, im going to stand here all day until you no, youre [bleep] not. Seriously look me in the eyes and tell me that you have complete clarity and that you have no feelings for me any longer. I can. Okay. Reporter and finally the seasons villain gone for good. What did you think about when he just got up and left . That it kind of summed him up. He kept trying to save himself and kept trying to get his point across and i think the point was he didnt have one. Reporter but still the topic of the night. You are a narcissistic cantankerous misogynist. You are the man that wants to control a woman so that you can feel better about yourself. Reporter when asked if he had regrets, its still unclear. If i could go back, i wouldnt change a thing. Reporter but hannahs regrets . Im so over being slut shamed and being felt like that makes me not a woman of faith. Reporter the 24yearold opening up and getting personal with gma after the show. Theres a lot of pressure in a standard of what you feel like the bachelorette is. Do you feel like you found your confidence through this whole process . I feel like i found my truth and which is . That i am just a normal girl that is strong, but also can be aware of my weaknesses and can grow through those. Reporter and the bachelor franchise rawls has a twist. Chris harrison revealing the show is going on the road. Alum ben higgins telling gma this overnight. You thought hannahs season was wild. Just wait till me and your bachelor and bachelorette favorites come to a city near you for the biggest Bachelor Party ever. Ill be your host. So you know its going to be fun. And tickets for the bachelor live on stage go on sale friday. And tune in to the twonight the bachelorette finale starting next monday at 8 00 p. M. Eastern, and, cecilia, everyone is already talking about who will be the next bachelor, a lot of fans hoping for mike. So well find out soon. We will. That is a tease. Abbie, thank you. Weve got another tease for you. Hann will be here live next wednesday morning. So who will she bring with her . Hmm. Ginger, over to you. We got to wait. I know. And this time were doing a gma moment and Going International to the farne islands. Watch as this gray seal hangs out with ben scuba diving trying to pull his whole hood off. I guess its good morning. Im your meteorologist mike nicco. Our weather is in the pattern today. It is going to get hotter starting tomorrow, but at night its going to be cool to mild. Lets look at the temperatures. We have 60 to 66 coasts into San Francisco. To the east bay, its 97 in antio antioch. Tonight low 50s to upper 60s. My 7day forecast, hottest we were going to check in with jason priestly. You know him from Beverly Hills 90210. Now he has a new movie series debuting on lifetime. Also a 90210 reboot is in the works and eva pilgrim spoke to jason about both big projects. Reporter summer is just starting to heat up for jason priestly. All the cute guys except you. Well, thanks for the compliment. Reporter the 90s heartthrob so famous for 90210 now part of an upcoming lifetime movie series based on author v. C. Andrews casteel family movie series. This is just beginning. Its kind of saucy then. There are good, clean, dirty fun. Good, clean, dirty. Do those words go together . They do now. Reporter priestly plays tony tatterton. Tony tatterton is a very successful massachusetts industrialist toy manufacturer but hes also complete sociopath, alcoholic sociopath. Diving into some tough topics. Yes, but they are interwoven in ways that, lets say, that are not appropriate. Oh. Everything in life has a price. Im sure youve become well aware of that. In typical v. C. Andrews fashion, there is a lot of things going on between relations. Delicately put here. Im trying, im trying. Its morning television. Reporter a far cry from nice guy Brandon Walsh from Beverly Hills 90210, the hotly anticipated revival coming later this summer. Different than the version of it that we all knew. Very different. So were not going to be so were not going to be . Oh, no, you do see brandon at the peach pit. The show within a show within a show within a show. Its very meta and its very multilayered. One of the obvious things for fans is the fact that luke perry wont be a part of the reboot. How has that been coming back together and hes not there . Well, you know, that was hard. That was that was the hardest thing of the whole process, i think. Luke was a Big Personality and had a big heart and he was a big part of everybodys life and so not having him there is he definitely left a vacancy there that we all felt. The generation of people who grew up with you guys watching 90210, theyre the same generation that shows up literally at like every Backstreet Boys concert and theyre a very Excited Group of people. Yeah. What has that been like . I think people at this point in time look at me and think that i look like Brandon Walshs dad or his older, much more tired brother.

At ross. Yes for less. [ applause ] we are back now with three incredible Young Brothers turned entrepreneurs who created a successful Candle Company that also gives back. Its a story we first saw in the washington post. Theyll join us live in a moment but first lets take a look at their story. Meet the gill brothers, colin, ryan and austin, masterminds behind their very own company specializing in candles, and these entrepreneurs are all under the age of 14. These Young Brothers began the business two years ago, all in a bid to make more money toward new video games, and since then, the business has soared. Now in more than 30 stores. The brothers also giving back big along the way. Already donating hundreds of dollars a month to the homeless and pledging 10 of their profits go to those in need. [ applause ] it is great to have the gill family. First of all we got to say you know how bad the weather was. They had canceled flights and a long train ride. They got here in the wee hours so we really, really appreciate you wanting to be here and telling your story. Colin, so why candles . Why candles . So me and my brothers asked my mom whats your favorite thing to buy. She said bath bombs but it was kind of a longer process so we decided candles was easier. Mom inspired you because she said candles. I understand that youre the scentologist. What does that involve . How do you go about selecting a scent. I usually put the most scents i like and mix them together and ask my Family Members if they like it or not and we will make it into a candle. Are you going to make some scents for us right now . How do you like owning your own business . Youre a businessman. How do you like that . I like to buy my own toys. You like to buy your own its all about motivation. Thats what it originally was. Mom and dad said, okay, you got to get a job if you want it. So can you believe this all became a reality . Its amazing. Its amazing. It was just like a side thing because they wanted more money for nerf games and ps4 games and i said get a job or start a business. They surprised me and they started a business and they started selling at their baseball and Football Games and moved on. [ applause ] i want to smell it. I can already start to smell it. Patrick, you know, i can just sense parents leaning in right now, you know, who are watching this, so what advice would you have if you have a child who wants to start a business like your boys did . You have to keep an open mind and foster anything theyre doing because it might flow to other things and you want to help them focus on what it is they really like. Uhhuh. And the most amazing part thats right. Do you all have fun doing this as well . I mean its a business and youre making money but it seems like its something. You are very intense over here, little man. I dont know what it is youre doing but youre very focused right now. So the motivation was to buy video games and such, but it switched into wanting to help others. How did you go about making that decision . So my brother ryan has a big heart. So he likes to help Homeless People out so like every time in d. C. There is a lot of homelessness and every time we would stop by and see a homeless person, he would ask our mom to give him money. Ryan, thats you. [ applause ] so tell us a little bit more about why you wanted to do that. Because i was always about helping others and helping others and really helping most of the people that are in need. Oh, yes, i know. Thats really kind. What does that make you feel . As parents to know that they wanted to do this because they could have kept all the money for themselves and nobody would have been the wiser so as parents, you must have taught them to be this way. How does this make you feel . We always give back. I mean, weve had people that needed place to stay and stayed with us and we have a Big Community and we also wanted to do job creation so right now were working with one organization to hire some of their clients transitioning from homelessness. Oh, really . To give them a job . Uhhuh. Thats wonderful to do that. Not just giving them money but also finding a job. What is it like, little man, what is it like working with your big brothers . Awesome. Because it seems like theyre bossing you around. I dont want to say anything but it looks like youre not the boss of me. Youre the boss. You say youre not the boss of me. Whats the next step . A candle truck. Its like a food truck. Instead of food, its candles but also were looking to get like a facility to make our candles out of. How can people help you do that . By buying our candles. [ laughter and applause ] i walked right into that. I walked right into that one. We also have a Gofundme Campaign for the candle truck because the candle truck will double as a Skills Training Center so a s. T. E. M. Center, we have some really big ideas. Were trying get it all together. Gill family, thank you. Thank you so much for getting here. [ applause ] let us know how it goes. Can i just smell a little bit . Is it ready to be smelled . Yeah.
