Reporter good morning. The trial does not sit on wednesdays. Prosecutors will be listening because trumps statements outside court have already convinced the judge to hold trump in contempt. Donald trump has until friday to pay a 9,000 fine for repeated violations of the gag order. The judge said trumps social media posts at tacked the credibility of two of the more high profile witnesses in the case. Trumps former fixer, michael cohen, and Stormy Daniels. 130,000 hush payment to daniels at the heart of the criminal case was so secretive her lawyer keith davidson, testified he used pseudo names. Davidson testified it was my understanding that trump was the beneficiary of this contract. Trump denies it but daniels claims the two had a sexual encounteder. He told the jury what he said in 2019. Trump sought to violence daniels weeks before the election. When youre a star they let you do it. Reporter when trump was heard on a tape boasting of grabbing women. The access Hollywood Tape was the motivating factor in this case actually resolving. It defeats the argument that this was done for purely personal reasons to protect mr. Trump or his family. And that this was, in fact, done for political reasons. Reporter so far as im aware, it had tremendous influence, davidson testified. It wasnt until access hollywood that interest reached a crescendo. Prosecutor showed the jury clips of trump talking about allegations made against him by women and their effect on his campaign. Every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign. 5 of the people think its true and maybe 10 think, we dont win. Reporter trumps fixer, michael cohen, arranged the hush payment with davidson, who called cohen a jerk and sort of a pants on fire sort of guy. He said cohen kept failing to wire the money. I thought he was trying to kick the can down the road until after the election, davidson testified. Eventually cohen paid. When trump reimbursed him, prosecutors said trump falsified Business Records to disguise it so voters wouldnt find out. Theres another hearing tomorrow. About additional gag order violations, george. The judge made it clear hed throw trump in jail if necessary. George . George aaron katersky, thank you. Now the latest on abortion rights as a six week ban takes effect in florida. Biden administration is blaming awed. Kamala harris heading to florida. Mary bruce has the story. Good morning, mary. Reporter good morning. The Biden Campaign is eager to put the issue of abortion front and center in this campaign, and this morning sending Kamala Harris down to florida to mark the states new six week ban going into effect. Thats before many people even know they are pregnant. She will blame donald trump directly for this as he brags about overturning roe. She will also call him out for recent comments. Trump telling Time Magazine he would not stay in the way if states wanted to monitor womens pregnanies or punishing those who violate abortion bans. President biden calling that shocking saying in a video, quote, there seems to be no limit as to how invasive trump would let the state be. All eyes will be on arizona, set to repeal the set. They are expected to repeal that civil war era ban on abortion, returning the state to a 15 week ban. Overall, donald trump avoided taking specific positions on the issue of abortion, deferring instead to the states which he says are handling this issue brilliantly. Gio . Gio a major issue to be sure. All right. Mary, thank you very much. The Biden Administration has taken the first step to reclassify marijuana as less dangerous, moving it from schedule 1 drug. Elizabeth schulze joins us with more on this. Elizabeth, this would mark a historic shift. Reporter it would, gio. Good morning. This is significantly eased federal restrictions on marijuana. Biden administration is planning to reclassify it as a less dangerous drug. Since 1970 marijuana has been a schedule 1 drug along lsd, heroin. Now the Justice Department is proposing moving it to schedule 3. Thats the same as ketamine, steroids or tylenol with codeine. It would not legalize marijuana nationally, but would drastically broaden access to the drug for medical and research purposes. 38 states have already legalized medical marijuana, while 24 states allow it for recreational use. President biden first called for this review in 2022. He has pardoned thousands of people convicted of federal offenses for simple marijuana possession. The white house knows this is an issue that could help win over the support of americans, especially younger voter, ahead of the election. George . George now the drama on capitol hill. House Speaker Mike Johnson faces a possible attempt to oust him. Democrats are prepared to save his job. Senior Congressional Correspondent rachel scott has the latest. Good morning, rachel. Reporter hey, george. Good morning. Yeah, this is a striking move. Democratic leadership announcing they would save the republican speaker of the house if it comes down to it. House Speaker Mike Johnson has been under threat from only a handful of far right members of his own party for weeks now. They are being led by Congress Woman Marjorie Taylor green. She is outraged that johnson reached across the aisle and worked with democrats to keep the government funding to pass much needed aid to ukraine calling it all a betrayal. Any single lawmaker can try to force a vote to oust the speaker of the house. To be clear, the vast majority of republicans do not agree with this push. They call it a distraction and side show. Even former President Trump acknowledging support for house Speaker Mike Johnson, saying he is a good person. Acknowledging that he has a razor thin majority. The bottom line is green can move forward at any point. She is expected to speak on capitol hill in just a few hours. That support from democrats all but ensures johnsons job is safe for now, gio. Gio rachel, thank you for your reporting on the hill. Now the investigation after boaters were caught on camera dumping trash into the Atlantic Ocean off the coast of florida.

So the big guidance, theyre dropping the age. Yeah. Of course, sure to get a lot of attention on this. Let me take you through the newest recommendations. Age is the big one. This is for average risk women. They recommend starting at 40, to screen every two years until 74. Very important to note screening for high risk women is different. These recommendations pertain to the average risk woman. That key word average is the issue because majority of women are, in fact, considered average until the day they get their diagnosis. Robin and theres a reason why this is the right time. Right. In order to appreciate that you need some historical perspective. Back in 2009, the u. S. Preventive service Task Force Made big news with a lot of controversy because they died the age up. From 40 to 50. Now they are seeing women in their 40s. Thats part of the reason theyre moving that age back down to 40. But oncologists, raidologist, ob gyns still weighing in on the issue of every two years and that frequency. We havent heard the end of controversy. Robin this is in your wheel house once again. I know theres so much more to discuss on this. Were gonna bring you back 8 00 hour.

In russia its forbidden. I knew that. Honest to god, i just totally forgot the pen was in my bag. In the midst of them going through my bags, theres two cartridges. Im just like, oh my god, how did i make this mistake . How was i just absentminded and made this huge mistake . I could just visualize everything i worked so hard for just crumbling and going away.

Reporter george, good morning. Theres no comforting way to put this. The fbi said seniors are increasingly the targets of a multibillion dollar black market scam, hunting their life savings. This morning that disturbing video of a senior fatally shooting an unsuspecting uber driver who allegedly believed was part of a scam, evidence of an explosion in schemes targeting the elderly. The fbi calling such scams an epidemic, warning that many Senior Citizens are having their entire life savings drained.

With so called grand parents scam. Stealing millions of dollars from hundreds of victims. Heres how it works. An opener. Someone pretending to be a distressed grandchild calling, claiming they need thousands of dollars because theyve been in a car accident where a pregnant woman had been injured, causing a miscarriage.

To collect the money from victims homes or the elderly were told the mail the cash.

Gio ashan there showing you how to see the beautiful and expensive country on a budget. Thats coming up. George first look at top stories. We start with protests escalating on College Campuses nationwide. Overnight there were violent clashes at ucla between two protest groups. At columbia, police cleared the building housed by pro palestinian protesters. This comes as commitment day is on the line for High School Seniors. Lets go back to Stephanie Ramos at columbia. Good morning, stephanie. Reporter good morning. We were here last night as new york city officers and the new york city mayor advised student demonstrators to leave Columbia University. The campus entirely. The mayor even telling parents of student protesters they should call their student and tell them to leave for their own safety. Hours later is when we witnessed hundreds of new york city Police Officers in riot gear move into Columbia University. We watched as a swat team rolled in. One by one Police Officers seen filing in on an extended ramp into hamilton hall. Police forming a line around the perimeter, clearing protesters blocking the entrance. Once inside hamilton hall, we could see officers going floor by floor, room by room. At least 100 people were arrested, loaded onto a police bus. The University President making that authorization, authorizing nypd to move in, saying the group who broke into the building included students but led by individuals who are not affiliated with the university. And the administration also saying they were left with no choice. This morning the protests are over, the encampment was cleared. Only the students who live on campus or perform services will be allowed back on campus, george. George okay, Stephanie Ramos, thanks. Back to trevor ault at ucla. Good morning, trevor. Reporter good morning again, george. Finally as we get deeper into the morning things are calm. But it was chaos overnight. In the distance there is the encampment of pro palestinian demonstrators. You see the Law Enforcement here. Hundreds were called in overnight. At one point they were facing away from the encampment as they set up the barricades. We saw a number of violent clashes. Pro israel counter protester, multiple instances we saw fireworks thrown into the encampment. We saw people on both sides who were demonstrating, using plywood boards, even some barricades that are separating them to attack one another. We have heard from University Officials talking about what happened overnight as horrific acts of violence. Ucla has a prominent pro israeli counter protest demonstration going on. Still very tense here heading into another day of demonstrations. Overnight as horrific violence. Robin . Robin all right, trevor. Thanks to you. We have more now with College Decision day on the line for High School Seniors this morning. Many factors being weighed by students and parents, including the protests and delays in Financial Aid. Elizabeth schulze is here to break it down. Good morning again, elizabeth. Reporter good morning again, robin. May 1st is typically decision day when High School Seniors decide where theyre going to college. But this year, along with watching those protests, so many students are missing a critical piece of information. Thats their Financial Aid package. The government rolled out a new fafsa form which was intended to simplify the process of applying for aid but instead has been riddled with delays and glitches. This has prevented many families from knowing exactly how theyll pay for school as we see tuition at six figures at some universities. So far only about one third of seniors have completed their fafsa, down 30 from last year. More than 200 colleges and universities have had to postpone deadlines to give students more time. Education department is urging families to apply for aid so they do not leave money on the table as part of this incredibly important decision. Gio . Gio thank you very much, elizabeth. Now Prince Williams rare update on princess kates update. Maggie rulli is at Kensington Palace with more. Good morning, maggie. Reporter good morning, gio. Yeah, for the first time Prince William opened up about his wife, princess kates health. His candid comments came during a surprise walk about yesterday in Northern England when a well wisher asked him how his wife and children were doing. The prince replied, we are all doing well, thank you before he quickly moved on to another subject. Kate shocked the world back in march with her cancer diagnosis. Since then shes been keeping a low profile calling for privacy as she goes for cancer treatment. The king, who is also going through cancer treatment, appeared upbeat and relaxed. He returned to public duties just yesterday. Princess kates return to public duties will only happen when her doctors advise her to do so. Guys . Robin we are still thinking of her.

George welcome back. Tomorrow Brooke Shields will be here talking about her new movie. Rebecca, youre here with more on the new Breast Cancer screening guidelines. Rebecca so important, guys. The gma cover story on Breast Cancer screening. United States Preventive Services Task force finalizing their recommendation that all women should begin receiving them by the time they hit 40. This morning the u. S. Preventive Services Task force announcing their final recommendation on screening for Breast Cancer suggesting all women with average risk begin screening with mammograms at the age of 40 and continue every other year until 74. The latest data clearly shows by screening every other year beginning at 40, we can save more lives, up to 20 more lives can be saved from Breast Cancer. Rebecca prior recommendations said women should start screening no later than age 50. But more women are being diagnosed with Breast Cancer at younger ages. The cancer data showed from 2015 to 2019, there was an increase in Breast Cancer diagnosis in women ages 4049. It increased about 2 every year. Rebecca olga said a mammogram at 45 saved her life. They told me that i have Breast Cancer. I couldnt believe it. I am a very healthy person, very active, very positive. Rebecca following a double mastectomy and 16 rounds of chemotherapy, shes now helping her Latin Community stay informed about the importance of mammogram. So important to get it by 40. If cancer is in your family you have to do it every year. Rebecca so important. We want to bring back dr. Ashton to break this down. Im so glad youre here. 240,000 women a year are getting Breast Cancer. This is so important. Its very important. The biggest headlines in these recommendations are very controversial. Not every professional organization agrees. Part of the motivation with them changing the guidelines from 50 to 40, weve been watching rates of Breast Cancer, particularly younger women, 4049, go up. They go up about 2 every year. Those women tend to have more aggressive types of Breast Cancer. So you know for the historical context, its important to remember back in 2009, this very same group, the u. S. Preventive service task force changed the age and made it 50. Now over that last period of time weve been watching more cases, more aggressive cases, more deaths. That was the concern then. Thats why people today are applauding this change. But there are still those people, and i am one of them medically, who thinks screening a woman every two years is not the proper interval, so we havent heard the end of this. Rebecca recommendation is also different from the american cancer society. Right. Rebecca as a patient, this is so confusing. It is so confusing. Remember these recommendations are for women at average risk. Majority of women diagnosed with Breast Cancer were average until the day they get that diagnosis. Also remember, mammography is the gold standard. It is not perfect. It misses some Breast Cancers, particularly in young women with dense breast, so ultrasound is often used, mri. Bottom line is you want to talk to your Health Care Provider and particularly women who are black or who are afraid of getting screened or who dont have the same access, this will hopefully save lives. Rebecca i talked to my doctor. My mom is a Breast Cancer survivor. I did my first mammogram at 38. After that conversation. Its usually ten years younger than your first degree relative was diagnosed. Rebecca dr. Ashton, thank you very much. Over to you, ginger, in boston. Ginger thank you very much. Rising and shining in boston with chief meteorologist cindy fitzgibbon. Happy to be here. So great to have you here. Ginger lets talk about rain.

We are hoping for another repeat of last summer which was the second wettest on record. Ginger unfortunately we do have a summer outlook looking pretty wet. Not just here in boston but much of the east coast, you can see where wetter than normal goes down to atlanta. If you want dryer go from mexico up to montana. Lets get a check closer to home. George we have a prop filled pop news. Lara we do. We do. Thats the tease, everybody. Were going to begin with a big exclusive from People Magazine and their annual beautiful issue.

That takes a lot of sacrifice. Takes a lot of energy. I didnt think, because of my career, the way i live my life, the way my marriage was, that it was fair to bring a kid to this world.

Iceland is a tremendous deal from boston. Flights are only about five hours. You could take a long weekend there and still get an action packed trip. Reporter we found deals for as low as 400 bucks. If you arent a picky traveller and if you dont care where you sit on the plane, some tickets 230. When it comes to hotel, start spending now for your summer trip specifically on credit cards from brands like hilton or marriott that, once the spending threshold is reached offer megapoints deals. We offer 130,000, 150,000 points as part of bonus. That would be good for two or three nights. That could be your whole trip. Reporter once i touched down i was ready to start my trip in style. Think im not going to get one of these sweaters . Youre mistaken. Local knits are quintessentially iceland. Some can cost you up to 500 bucks, but but some stores help you shop like a local. Score sweaters like these for as low as 50. We got a winner. Lot more do. Lets go. Getting it all done is going to take some horse power. Im not talking icelandic horses. The best way to see this beautiful country, get a rental car. We have deals from alamo for as low as 86 a day. Long beautiful drive youll want your own ride. In iceland they swear by their hot dogs. Road side hot dogs are a great classic icelandic lunch, just 4. If youre feeling fancy, try the dine out app which offers dining discounts all over the country. This restaurant 15 off. Lets face it, you dont just go to iceland to eat. Go for these adventures. Does it live up to the hype . For sure. Everyone needs to come here. It is awesome. Reporter the waterfalls. Guys, part of the heritage of this beautiful country, the best part of all, a lot of these places, free. One of the most famous attractions here, the blue lagoon. Naturally heated sea water oasis. Its perfect for selfies. At a cost, close to 350 for a family of four. Hot springs are all around this country and many like this one are just free if you know where to walk. If youre up for physical activity, the hike to get here was gorgeous. This doesnt get any better. One of the reasons so many people have this special country on their bucket list. Is it living up to the hype so far . Yes, absolutely. Its breathtaking. I could not have imagined. I was a little weary. She convinced me of it. Now being here, its epic. Reporter you get it . I get it. I agree. Good morning america woo reporter guys, i am still thinking about that incredible hike off the beaten path and hanging in the hot springs. It is something i will never forget. I gotta say after this trip my wallet is feeling pretty good, too. [ laughter ] rebecca thats great. Thats the best. Lara i know, ashan, you have another tip for a way folks can make the most of the the capital city. And save a ton of money there as well . This rekyjavik key card is an absolute cheat card to get around the city. It is unreal. It lets you get into pools, museums, galleries for free. Not to mention, if youre traveling alone or with family, it lets you take the bus around the city. Our team had the chance to go to a local art museum and it was just incredible. I couldnt take this trip without sending you some treats. Weve got some black licorice. Delicious. Enjoy. George are you dressed for your next trip in that sweater . Where are you headed next week . Reporter were headed to the big easy, new orleans. George thats awesome. Rebecca wonderful. We cant wait to travel along with you. Thank you so much.

George were back with a look at the American Exchange project, a program on a mission to bridge the divide across the country by allowing students to visit places beyond their home town. We all need to know we belong. George founded in 2019 the American Exchange project says their mission is to connect a divided country by sending High School Seniors in a summer after they graduate on a free week long trip radically different from their own. Think of all the diversity in america. Political, cultural, socioeconomic, economic, racial, ethnic. We live in a massively diverse country. Unless we can learn to socialize and connect with people who are different from us, our democratic project will be in trouble. We see that now every day. George in 2022 cornell horner traveled from boston to lemon, south dakota, a town of roughly 1,000 people. We had many activities from, you know, going to a bison ranch, seeing how that process worked. Going to town fairs. Even being part of the town fair. Going to a Meat Processing facility was really cool. It was something i would never do out here. George last summer 19yearold bryce went from his home town of 13,000 in kilgore texas to new york city. I had this conception that new york was a busy grungy dirty place full of grumpy people. When i got there, it was very different from that. We got to meet a lot of very nice people. Despite living very busy lives, fast paced lives, the people that i experienced wanted to give their time to get to know us. George since the Program Began theyve run trips to 75 towns across 35 states. Heres your chance to truly test your own political ideas and actually talk to people and humanize those said people. Its very easy to put people in boxes and not truly understand their totality. I think the American Exchange project gives you a chance to do that. Its also a chance to just practice going outside your bubble and experience a different reality. Were all the same despite our differences. We all live very interesting lives. We can all learn from each other. This is one of the biggest ways you can solve the current split by simply knowing each other better. George what a fantastic idea. Great to see it in action. Lets go back to ginger in boston. Ginger hey, george. We are celebrating here boston, the town that im spending time in with cindy fitzgibbon. Chief meteorologist from wcvb.
