North korea is vowing revenge, condemning the sanctions, warning that the u. S. Will pay dearly. President trump is waking up with a serious polly showdown on his hands, as he gets prepared to welcome the Vice President and cabinet secretaries to his bedminister property this week. The Trump Administration dealing with north korea. Were going to start fighting back. Reporter the president holding an hourlong phone call with his secretary of state, overseas in arsia. As kim jongun warns its missiles are not on the negotiating table. From a state tv broadcaster, this apparent threat. Theres no bigger mistake than the u. S. Thinking its safe because its across the motion. A missile that can reach as far as chicago, the president touting a u. N. Vote for 1 billion in sanctions against north korea, supported by both china and russia. Mr. Trump demanding the penalties be implemented right awash aw away, as his National Security adviser says all options are on the table. Mr. Trump is trying to reenergize his core supporters. Taking aim at familiar targets like the media. Tweeting, the trump base is bigger big er and stronger than ever before. From his golf resort in new jersey, teeing off on richard blumenthal, for talking about hoax, and russian collusion. The attack on plumen thals tar ets, underscoring the election interference. He said he told staories and it was a lie. He cried like a baby and begged for for giveness like a child. Theres no evidence he bragged about it or cried when the scandal erupted during his 2010 senate bid. Late monday, blumenthal, undeterred. I have no idea about what is in his mind.

Were happy to have nikki haley here with us, ambassador to the united nations. Congratulations to the vote. 150, in the security council, who means you got russia and china onboard with this. Looking at the list of sanctions, theyre severe. They target a lot of north koreas expaorts, like coal and other minerals. 1 billion a year they can use for this nuclear program. But they have lived under tough economic sanctions in the past. Why are they going to work this time . We dont know its going to work. But its something we needed to do. We said on saturday, this wasnt going to stop our north korea problem. It is going to send a strong message and a united message. It was a strong day for the united states. It was a strong day for the united nations. You had the entire International Community tell kim to stop. You did. And you got china and russia onboard. And that was a diplomatic feat. And the devil is in the details, as you know better than anyone else. How do you get china and russia to implement and enforce these sanctions . I read a quote from a north korean expert in the times this morning. The resolution, 1 ye1 years in e past didnt work. They basically very much said we have to enforce these to be for for this to be legitimate. We have to hold the countries accountable. We will be watching to see who is enforcing. More importantly than that, china accestepped up and said, theyre not only going to vote for this, they announced theyre going to enforce and urged other countries to enforce. The Missile Launch took place right next to their border. Their ground shook. The Chinese People felt it. They know this is series. For decades, your country has been trying to build up some kind of Nuclear Deterrent or offensive capabilities. Youre now this close. Youve got a nuclear device. Youve got missiles that youve shown can reach the heartland of the united states. Your last step is to combine those two things. Why in the world would you negotiate now when you are this close to having the weapon that will give you the strongest hand . He may not negotiate now. I think what we did was, we sent a message. Now, we have gone directly after their hard currency. Think about it. All of the revenue that comes into north korea. It doesnt go to feeding their people. It goes to a Ballistic Missile program. They will not longer will have the money to do that. Can you stop him in time from combining those two things . The missile and shrinking the nuclear twidevise to fit on of t missile. We tried to ask him, whats your end game . If he decides if he strikes to united states, is that something he can win . Senator lynindsaey graham wan this program. Well show you what he said. If theres going to be a war, its going to be over there the hes told me that to his face. He said the president told him that to his face. Theyre not going to tolerate a nuclear north korea, even if it means war. Have you heard that, as well . Zb i know the president is prepared to protect the American People. All of the balls lie in kims court. He has to decide, how far to you want to take this rhetoric . As the person who has to take this to the united nations, as the president said to your face what he said to Lindsey Grahams face . He has not said that. He said all options are on the table. And the discussions we had, well do whatever it takes to counter north korea. Separate issue. Theres a new poll that shows the vast majority of americans do not trust what theyre getting out of the white house. Sucks in ten dont consider the president honest and trustworthy. And only 24 of americans say they trust all or most of what they hear from the white house. Its one thing when youre talking about crowd sizes in the inauguration. In your line of work, this is serious. Does the white house have a credibility problem . Does that concern you . As a governor, every day, you try to get the trust of your people. Thats part of your people. And the only way you get the trust, is not by what you say, by what you do. If you look at the actions, this president , all of the new investment thats happening, a lot of people will say, i dont believe this or that. You say that, look at the actions, it acknowledges it tacits acknowledgment because you cant trust the words. I dont see that way. I look at results. I know theres back and forth and sometimes unnecessary chatter that goes back and forth with that. But you have to look at the results. This is a time we have to look at the American People and say, are they better today than yesterday . And i think they are. The administrations just received a sweeping report on Climate Change, coming from scientists at 13 federal agencies. It hasnt been made public yet the but its been reported, that were feeling Global Climate change right now. And human activities are primarily responsible for that Global Climate change. Given the fact we just pulled out of the paris climate accord, will the administration embrace the results of this study . First of all, you have to look at, just because we pull out of the paris accord, doesnt mean we dont believe in climate protection. Were saying were not going to i think were very aware that we need to do that. What were saying is were saying were not going to sell out american businesses to do that. Will we embrace the results of this report from 13 federal agencies . I havent seen the report. But i dont see any reason why they wouldnt. A lot of this is, were not saying that Climate Change is not real. It is real. Its how do you have that balance between making sure you have jobs and businesses moving and how you protect the climate . U here. Appreciate it. We have a lot more for you this morning, including major news including the safety of some of the military aircraft. The marine corps is considering to order a temporary aviation standdown to refocus marine pilots and crews on safety.

The osprey accident follows an osprey crash off japan last december, during a refueling mishap. But the osprey is not the plane that suffered a series of crashes during its initial testing and deployment. It has a good Safety Record over ten yards. Reporter the fleet is aging. The average plane is 15 years old. The average fighter is 30 years old. The planes are getting old. And the aviators are getting tired. That increases the potential for aviation accidents and incidents. Reporter now, remember the air force never stood down after the first gulf war in 1991. Pilots continued to fly the nofly zone. Then, the war in bosnia, before iraq and afghanistan. Decades of war have meant wear and tear on planes and equipment. And personnel.

Reporter seven homes falling victim to this houseeating natural disaster. Our affiliate wfla flew overhead. The house itself is gone. The pool still stands. And the debris thats in it, theyre pulling it out, piece by piece. Reporter Emergency Operations are under way to shore up the hole, dumping limestone in its edges. In this part of florida, sandy soil sits on top of a layer of clay and a layer of limestone. Water or Drought Conditions can dissolve the layers, forming a sinkhole. This one is interesting to scientists at the university of south florida. 67 years ago, there was a large lake here. In time, it was filled in. Becoming orange groves and vacation homes. The neighborhoods history may have played a role in the formation of this monster sinkhole. My suspicion is this is all the material that was once at the bottom of the lake. And this area used to be lake bottom. Reporter that sinkhole there, large enough to swallow a 747. Homeowners in this area are wondering why their Mortgage Companies didnt require them to have sinkhole insurance. Of course, its now too late to purchase it. Matt, savannah . Heart goes out to them.

Are you overfat . 90 of men, and 80 of women, have body levels that can impact your health. Here to figure it out, dr. Mehmet oz. Host of the dr. Oz show. I want to make sure, this is not over fat. Like over social media. This is overfat, one word. Think of overweight. Your weight is over what you want it to be. Overfat means, were not trusting the scale were looking at the fat in your body. We underestimate by 50 how much extra fat we have onboard. Many of us are overfat. Nine out of ten men. This isnt obese. This is fat thats concentrated in your belly area. Would be is this love handles . No. Heres the thing. Obese, the whole phraseology about obese and overweight, underweight, researchers are throwing that out and saying, we misled people. The scale doesnt tell you the answer. In your body, around your organs, strangling them, leads to a cascade of problems. You want people to take their waist size and double it. If that number is less than the number of the inches of their height, theyre not overfat, correct . Let me make this simple for folks. You need a measuring tape. Easier than the scale. And easier than the complicated tests we do to figure out how much fat is in your belly. Take a measuring tape around your belly button. May i examine you . You may. Take it around the waist. Getting to know you. Your weight has to less than half your height. How tall are you . 511. 5 times 12, is 60 inches. Divide it in lauhalf is 31 inch. You get to suck it in. 34. With the jacket.

When you start looking at 90 of men in this country, 80 of women, 70 of people in the world, including some athletes are overfat, people are going to say this, is something i cant attain, not being overfat. As a physician, im more interested in being accurate and respected than being loved. Were misleading a lot of folks. Women who dont have vigorous daily activity. Their scale underestimates how much fat they have. Young kids, we have a kids foundation. We struggle with this all the time. Kids think the weight is okay.

This morning, we are throwing out the cookbook and embracing not recipes with Merrill Stubbs and amanda hesser, founders of food 52. Heres more about their site. If you havent heard of food 52, ask one of their 1. 72 million instagram followers. The site that boasts 11 million users was dreamed up eight years ago in a brooklyn apartment. We met when i was working on a cookbook. We tested 1400 recipes together. We got to be very close. And food 52 was born during that time. We started just the two of us. We did the shoots in my bedroom. And now, we have a team of 70. Reporter a team that has grown, thanks to a clear vision. We knew there was an opportunity to really make a mark. There was a brand to be built that was more than just recipes. Reporter at food 52, you will find recipes. But youll find tips and techniques. A hot line for cooking emergencies. We wanted to make a place where cooking and entertaining and creating a beautiful home all come together in this organic way. It is a souptonuts experience. Reporter a key part of that experience, a social network of athome chefs. Were able to capture the community by celebrating the community. Their voices are heard. And we feel that home cooks are heroes. Reporter and being a good cook does not mean spending time in the kitchen. We discovered that the way we cooked at home changed a lot. We create component dishes that can be mixed and matched in different ways. These are boiled potatoes. You can use roasted. The goal is to use up leftovers. Reporter a message the pair has coined not recipes. We love recipes. But we certainly dont always use them. We try to walk you through what that formula you want to have in your head. Reporter and in most cases, that formula starts with a protein. When we had leftover roast chicken, my mother would shred it and make a warm chicken salad. Chives over the top. I like a mix of grain, some type of protein. Theres our pulled chicken. I like to have some element of heat. Something crunchy. Im going to add some celery. The goal is for people to get to a point where they can cook by feel. Theres enough stress and anxiety in the world and dinner doesnt need to add to that. Amanda and merrill, good morning, ladies. Fun to see your stories. Youre really on to something here. Were going to cook one of the basics that you can apply to other things. The ingredients couldnt be simpler. Its chicken thighs, olive oil and salt and pepper. Why did you pick chicken thighs . They can lay flat in the pan. And they have a lot of flavor. Im going to season both sides with at and pepper. And put a little bit of olive oil in this pan. On medium heat. And put them skinside down. Why this pan . Its nonstick. And this is a fry wall. Thats what im wondering about. It prevents the grease from going all over your kitchen. Protects your clothes. Let them sit until the skin crisps. When theyre golden like this, flip them over. Is it 15 or 20 on each side . No. About 15 to 30 on the first side to get crisp. And then, you flip it. And another 15 until its done. Once theyre cool, you can use a fork to shred them. We. We like to use our hands. This is your building block. You have a handful of recipes you can use with this and go with anything. Exactly. These are the flavors we like to add. Add bacon. And you talked about the warm chicken salad. And a vinaigrette here. Just red wine vinegar, olive oil, salt and pepper. Keep it in the fridge. You can make it i like the simplicity. Our tasters are downstairs. What do you think, gang . The chicken is unreal. That fry wall was the winner of todays next big thing. Here on the show. Oh. You hosted that segment. Now, stop it. I was off that year. Great. A great invention. Todays next big thing. You use it with the greens is another option. Yep. The chicken and potato salad here that you put over greens. This is a green salad i like to make. I like to include heat and crunchy parts. Like nuts. And then, its a great salad dish a great lunch dish and great for dinner. Thank you so much.

And weve got a real problem on our hands in new york state. Were the 49th in terms of equitable funding. Theres only one state less than us and thats illinois. And the governor likes to say we spend more per state. And thats true. But we spend so much on the kids in our wealthiest districts. That evens out. Between our 100 riches schools and 100 poorest schools, theres a 10,000 gap on what we spend per pupil.

She was taking her kids for ice cream and came across a child with a facial difference. And she started thinking, what would it be like to face a world that doesnt want to face you back. So, she wrote a book called wonder. R. J. Is here alongside daveed diggs who plays a teacher in the film. But first, kids talk about bullying and kindness in their own words. I have seen kids being mean to each other. Some times kids are mean by hitting people. Some kids call kids dweebs, nerds, annoying. Sometimes kids call each other were aird and disgusting. A lot of my classmates are mean. F when i see kids being mean, i feel sad. I would mike a difference by making new friends. If they see a bully, they could tell a teacher or a parent. Always important to be kind and nice. I like them to be happy. I like to be nice to kids so they can be nice back. To me. I want everybody in the world to be happy. You love hearing it in the kids words. Daveed and r. J. , nice to have you here. This was a book for your kids. I was at an ice cream store. And my son got afraid. And i thought about how the best way to meet any difference in any human being with always with kindness first. And that prompted me to start writing the book. And it turns into this novel. Did you expect it to become what it is . Gosh, no. When i was writing it, i wondered if it would get published, much less it would become what it would become. Its been one surprise after another. Daveed, what attracted you to this role . The book so is wonderful. I was sent the idea of the script. It blew my mind. And reading the screenplay, it managed to capture the sweetness in the book and do all of the things that it does so wonderfully. Tell the story through this childs eyes. And it really is an incredible lesson in empathy. And its something i wanted to be a part of. The first thing i did after hamilton would be this film. The book is being a classroom initiative. Can you talk about that . Feeteachers have been the book and the movie resonates deeply with teachers. It is a story about kindness. And teachers use that story to teach compassion and empathy, all of the thicks that they want to learn. They use it to help guide their discussions in their classrooms. Its been a wonderful way to guide the discussions in classrooms with the students. No know that r. J. , with the book, and daveed, with the film, youre leaving a mark, making a change. That has to be an amazing feeling. Its very humbling, i have to admit. Its impacted people and inspired children to want to be kinder to one another. Its really humbling. Im constantly amazed. I used to be a teacher, as well. To get to contribute to the work theyre doing every day, teaching is so difficult and underappreciated. And so, the fact that i get to be part of something that teachers are going to use in their classrooms, is really exciting. And daveed plays mr. Brown, who is inspired by my High School English teacher. Its all coming around. Youre really making a difference. And wonder hits theaters, september 17th. For information, head to today.
