Hes a bichon frise, only the second time his breed has won best in show. 5yearold flynn beat out nearly 3,000 other dogs for the award. He and his handler are here live. Well see if we can get a word or two out of flynn so he can tell us how he did it in that would be a story. Well begin with that new scandal rocking the white house. The president s lawyer now admits he personally paid Stormy Daniels, the porn star who said she had an affair with donald trump. He said it happened weeks before the 2016 vote, Campaign Watchdogs call that an Illegal Campaign contribution and an official investigation under way and tom llamas is tracking all the latest. Reporter good morning. Weve just learned as you mentioned the s. E. C. Has been asked to look into an Illegal Campaign contribution possibly involving the Trump Campaign. That alone is serious enough but the money in question is an alleged payoff by one of the president s most loyal allies to a porn star to keep her quiet about an alleged affair she had with President Trump years ago. This morning, a stunning admission from President Trumps longtime personal attorney, lawyer Michael Cohen admits to paying 135,000 of his own money to pornographic film actress Stormy Daniels. The woman who says she had an affair with donald trump in 2006 at a lake tahoe Golf Tournament years before he became president but just months after Melania Trump had given birth to their son baron. Neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump Campaign was a party to the transaction with ms. Clifford and neither reimbursed me for the payment either directly or indirectly. Cohen said in a statement, the payment to ms. Clifford was lawful and was not a Campaign Contribution or a Campaign Expenditure by anyone. Cohen did not say whether trump knew he made the payments. Reports of an alleged affair between daniels and President Trump resurfaced after a wall street journal report alleged that she was paid 130,000 just before the election and there was a transcript of a 2011 interview with dams which she said trump then a reality tv star invited her to his suite where they later this sex and the president promised her a role on apprentice and daniels saying it lasted about a year. Is any of that true . Define true. Reporter the Adult Entertainment star refused to break her silence when she appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live following the tarantino. Do you have a nondisclosure agreement . Do i . You cant say whether you have one but if you didnt have a nondisclosure agreement you could certainly say i dont have a nondisclosure agreement. Youre so smart. Reporter in the months leading up to the election jacob wiseberg was working on breaking the Stormy Daniels story but that happened just before the payment occurred. He felt she was telling the truth because her story was so detailed and had friends who could corroborate parts of that story and reached out to the white house for comment but so far have not heard back. As you said Michael Cohen, one of the longest serving aides, why did he make the payment. How could President Trump not know . We do know, Michael Cohen was one of the closest people outside his relatives to donald trump and his office was steps away from President Trumps at trump tower. He didnt have an official role in the campaign but he was known as the pit bull. He would take care of problems for President Trump outside of the campaign. He would go after reporters on cable news and threaten lawsuits, a very tough customer, well see what happens. Right before the election. See how the white house responds. Shaun white celebrating that huge win soaring to Gold Winning Team usas 100th gold medal at the winter games but in the height of that white facing new questions about past accusations and amy, you know, is there in south korea for us and has all the latest. Thats right, good morning. Yes, resurfacing allegations about threetime olympic Gold Medalist shaun white threaten to overshadow his nearly Perfect Performance on the halfpipe, the 31yearold trying to take in the glory of the day while at the same time deflecting questions about a settled lawsuit from 2016. And the score is in. Reporter the snow king overcome with emotion. Shaun white takes the gold. Reporter shaun white crying tears of gold just moments after this nearly perfect routine sealed the deal. One more hit. Will it be enough .

White taking to instagram writing, this is the most amazing day of my life. The United States champ showing off his gravitydefying moves. Shaun white puts down a megarun. Reporter whites final run, a risky and near flawless routine. Shaun white for the gold. Reporter the risks didnt pay off for earn. Japans to ssuka slamming his h into the halfpipe. They say he is not severely injured and white hurt during practice last fall recovering from this nasty collision requiring 62 stitches nailing that same move for wednesdays sweet victory. The ultimate reward after a long fouryear road to redemption, the superstar failing to medal in sochi placing fourth in his event. Now, the 31yearold is the first snowboarder to ever win three olympic goals. White told me before he competed he visualized winning that third gold medal enbelieved it and today he certainly achieved it. As for those allegations against him my colleague matt gutman and i were both at his press conference where i along with several other women raised our hands to have a question only men were called on and magnitude was among them and, matt, you certainly asked the question of the hour. And you know, amy, shaup white should have expected that question would come. He probably did expect it. Yet, when i asked him about those Sexual Misconduct allegations, he seemed to be caught off guard and when i pressed him about it, he said that he was there only to talk about the olympics and not, quote, gossip. Shaun white takes the gold. Reporter just hours after shaun white wept and pumped his fierros in triumph following his nearly perfect historymaking run, the fourtime olympian on the defense after Sexual Misconduct allegations against the snowboarder resurfaced. In 2016 Lena Zawaideh who had been in whites band bad things for over five years filed a lawsuit claiming white sexually harassed other and sent her sexually explicit note tos and forced her to watch sexually disturbing videos and enforced a authoritarian management style. Whites lawyers have always denied her claims. Shaun, over the past couple of days the Sexual Harassment allegations by Lena Zawaideh have resurfaced. Are you concerned that theyre going to tarnish your legacy . You know, honestly im here to talk about the olympics, not gossip so but i dont think so. I am who i am, and im proud of who i am and my friends, you know, love me and vouch for me and i think thats stands on its own. So youre saying the allegations against you are gossip . I think were here to talk about the gold medal and the amazing day we had today. Id like it to addressed a little bit. Like i said i think were here to talk about the gold medal i feel like i addressed it. Reporter overnight snowboarding officials did not take a question from a single female journalist including christine brennan. I understand he would rather not talk about it but i dont know that he gets to make this call. This me too movement is a significant, important part of American Culture right now. And he now is in it. Reporter now, back in 2016 white said that those allegations of psychological and Sexual Misconduct that lasted for years were dredged up to craft a bogus lawsuit against him, but white has never denied actually sending those techs and weve seen them in the complaint against him and they are incredibly graphic. Amy. All right, matt gutman, thank you. The other big story here in pyeongchang today, the weather. It was so windy here today that olympic organizers had to close public areas of the olympic park urging people to stay inside. We all got alerts on the phones. High winds forcing the womens slalom event to be postponed until friday. Lets take a look at the latest medal count, team usa with a total of seven medals, four gold, germany with the most, they have seven gold so far. Guys, well send it back to you. It is never short of drama here in pyeongchang. Its the olympics. Now back to the white house where the scandal over how top officials handled Domestic Abuse officials against top aide rob porter continues to grow. In dramatic testimony the fbi director flatly corrected the white house story line jeopardizing the job of chief of staff john kelly. Cecilia vega is tracking all the latest. Good morning. Reporter good morning. That white house story has been shifting for days and we are still nowhere closer to knowing who knew what and when. It was their goto line for days. The process for the background was ongoing. His Background Investigation was ongoing. Reporter the white house repeatedly insisting the investigation into former staff secretary rob porter was still open and thats why he stayed on the job despite Domestic Abuse allegations which he denies. The fbi conducting that investigation now says thats not the case. Director Christopher Wray told the Senate Intelligence committee his agents actually gave the white house four reports on porter as far back as last spring and thats not all. We administratively closed the file in january. Reporter facing repeated questions about the contradiction, press secretary Sarah Sanders now blames a littleknown white house office, the white house personnel security office. They had not completed their process and made a recommendation to the white house for adjudication. Reporter but just a day earlier. This is a process that isnt doesnt operate within the white house. Reporter from the president himself, still no mention of the women. Mr. President , do you believe rob porters exwives . Do you believe rob porters exwife, mr. President . Does the president believe the women . Again, the president takes all of these accusations very seriously. He believes in due process. Reporter chief of staff john kelly at the center of the firestorm reportedly having known about the allegations for months tells the wall street journal he wouldnt have handled the situation differently saying, quote, it was all done right. Is the white house still maintaining john kelly really had no idea about these allegations of Domestic Abuse until the story broke. I can only give you the best information i have and thats my understanding. Reporter rob porter was working on a temporary clearance and Jared Kushner among them. The president s own director of National Intelligence is now sounding the alarm saying anyone with a temporary security clearance should have limited access. Kelly facing something of a colonels coup inside the white house. Stunning quotes in the Washington Post from white house aides. One saying kelly is a big, fat liar. To put it in terms the general would understand his handling of the porter scandal amounts to a dereliction of duty and added its simply not in the white house dna to be transparent and truthful. Thats from white house aides, cecilia. Reporter yeah, we know President Trump himself has been increasingly frustrated with general john kelly and talking about possible replacements and john kelly recently expressed a willingness to resign if the president wanted that. There is a short list now moving towards the top is gary cohn, the president s chief economic adviser. More than a week into the scandal. Thanks. Rust already targeting this were midterm elections and Pierre Thomas has more in washington and, pierre, this warning comes as we know millions prepare to head to the polls later this year. Reporter robin, good morning. Ive covered a lot of hearings but this certainly was not business as usual. The nations top intelligence officials had a stark warning about the upcoming congressional midterm elections. The russians are coming again. The director of National Intelligence was incredibly blunt saying the United States is under attack and the cia director said the u. S. Is already uncovered evidence of russians targeting the Upcoming Elections and, robin, abc news learned the russians plan to not only use social media to sow discord through fake new by a probing state elections systems to see if they can be infiltrated. Sobering day on capitol hill. Now to those rescues in oregon. First responders racing against time in dangerous conditions to save climbers stuck on mt. Hood. Abcs Kayna Whitworth has the latest. Good morning, kayna. Reporter hey, michael, good morning. So there were seven climbers in two separate groups in desperate need of help atop oregons highest peak and with this weather moving in, all this wind and snow it was a race against time. The original call came from from a group of four after a climber they were with fell 750 feet. The Oregon National guard sent up a black hawk helicopter while fellow climbers performed chest compressions on him. Sadly he died after being air life lifted to the hospital. Meanwhile there were another group of climbers stranded. More than 40 ascended and this snowcat brought down two of the climbers off the mountain. Another one had to be brought down in a sled after some 17 hours on that mountain. It was just a terrible and deadly day, michael. All right, thank you so much, kayna.

That new report about President Trumps longtime loyal lawyer Michael Cohen admitted he personally paid the porn star who claimed to have an affair with donald trump back in 2006 and now tom llamas is back with the latest. Reporter the s. E. C. Has been asked to look in a serious charge and because of it a stunning admission from President Trumps longtime personal attorney Michael Cohen. Cohen is admitting to paying 130,000 of his own money to neva Stefanie Clifford known as Stormy Daniels. She claims she had an affair with him in late 2006. It happened years before he became president but just months after Melania Trump had given birth to their son baron. Cohen said neither the Trump Organization nor the Trump Campaign was a party to the transaction with ms. Clifford and minority reimbursed me for the payment either directly or indirectly, the payment to ms. Clifford was lawful and was not a Campaign Contribution or Campaign Expenditure by anyone. What he didnt say whether trump knew he had made that payment. The they will look into whether the payment was an unreported gift to the campaign and if the campaign reimbursed cohen and failed to report it. This is very, very frustrating. A lot of questions ahead. The white house not saying anything. Okay, tom llamas. Thanks very much. Want to go to Pierre Thomas. Were just getting reports of a shooting near the nsa in maryland.

Although theyve never acted on the same stage they have appeared on the big screen in memorable films like sleepless in seattle. Look at that hair. Classic. Yeah. Thank you. What a lovely couple. In honor of valentines day we want to help a new york woman who is looking for love help find a stranger that she spotted on a train. Her name is devin and she was on the subway when felt a spark with a man wearing yellow shoes and the two never spoke and she couldnt stop thinking about him and posted it on the misses connectioned train and someone took a step further and posted this 20foot mural that reads yellow shoes guy, i was the brunette and missed my stop in the hopes that you would talk to me. If you do say hi this time and with one final push to make it happen the mural goes on to say if youre out there meet here on valentines day 1 00 p. M. So, guys, Good Morning America is trying to help here. Oh, my. Look at this in the front row. You were touched by this story. Werent you . You know what they say, must be the shoes. So yellow shoes and green pants girl, 1 00 at the mural in brooklyn, call us, let us know. We dont have cameras there or anything. No, that wont be me in the wig and glasses. No, no, itll be great so let us know. We hope you find love. If you are looking for love, looking for that special someone, soon a medical test will be able to tell you if you are really in love or just faking it. It is estimated oh, no. No, this is science people. In the next ten years researchers will be able to detect the powerful love ch Chemicals Using a scanner to monitor them. Theyre only produced in significant amounts when a person is truly in love. The worlds leading neurologists say it will allow people to decide whether to make a lifelong commitment or determine the relationship is worth the hassle. Their word, not mine. Valentines day, were talking about this. Taking romance right out of it. I know we got to move on. I was just looking around the audience. Ive never seen so many nervous people. Ten years away. Dont worry. So thats all i got. Happy valentines day. That was great. That was a big one, lara. We move on to our gma cover story and move on over to dr. Jen because so many people, parents in particular, theyre panicking about flu season and rightfully so with what were seeing all around the country. It is widespread in nearly every state so dr. Yen is here with a reality check about what helps you stay healthy and some myths here. This is real clinical practice. We take it from kind of the reports in policy and administration to whats really going on in the clinics with nervous parents and i was one of them because my daughter had the flu and i got real scared so its important to remember that when you talk about someone who is emotionally stressed about some health other medical outcome the ability to do something is very empowering and thats what i think were seeing. A lot of parents try to manage their fear by not panicking but taking some steps and were here to break down risk versus benefit. Is there real data and will it do any harm. So we have a panel of experts right here, some parents that are here and they have some paddles and were going to pose questions to them because a lot of parent, you have your little remedies you think work and so youll let us know, true, false. Is it true that washing your childrens coats, hats, scarves and gloves frequently can help prevent flu . Is that true or false . Interesting. Okay, this is false and we have to remember, you might wind up with clean clothes but its not going to kill the influenza virus. The best way to protect yourself by far is getting the flu vaccine. Weve spoken to the cdc. They havent crunched this data yet for this season but in past seasons 80 of pediatric deaths have occurred in children who were unvaccinated. So, it doesnt give you the flu. There is still time to get vaccinated and even though its not that effective it is the best protection we have. Cleaning your clothes will keep the laundry business happy but its not going to kill the flu. Rakoya got it right. Because you have something, a remedy you say every morning you give your son omega3 to keep him from getting sick. Is that true or false. Can omega3 keep you from getting the flu . True or false. True or false . Wow. Okay. One false at the end. Sorry, guys, this is false. There are some reports that it does not occur in peer reviewed, you know, conclusive literature that omega3s can help but not influenza yet. Not ready for primetype. Talk about risk benefit will it do significant harm, probably not but also is unlikely to really do any significant benefit. You keep going down to those questions. 50 50. This is the tiebreaker. The tiebreaker. All right. True or false, skipping playdate, parties and even vacation can help limit exposure to the flu . True or false . All right. Not bad. This one is actually true. Now, we dont want people to live in a plastic bubble but obviously if you reduce the frequency of contact with other people a lot of whom may have the flu, be contagious or infectious and not know it you can lower your risk. That doesnt mean if you keep your child out of playdates for the next two months they wont get the threw. They did very well on that. Thank you, our panel of experts. We want to mention you have to do what you think is right. Want to mention a special event. Womens day celebrated the 15th annual red dress awards honoring those who made significant contributions to Heart Health Awareness and look at this. This years honoree. Dr. Jennifer ashton. Womans day. You are extremely i share that with my colleagues at abc news and Good Morning America because we are so committed to raising awareness about Womens Heart Health and share it with you.

Not that much wind out there. You can see that steam from that smoke stack going straight up in the air. Mild today, 53. There will be rain around this evening so bring an umbrella if youre headed out. Tomorrow clouds for the most part and 65 for a high. Valenti what better way to say i love you than with homemade treats. The latest food trend bake kits and Deborah Roberts is here. You got this unlucky assignment. Oh, yeah, yeah. So hard, happy valentines day. You too. By the way, with the language of love often including food, people have often said you show your love by cooking for the one you love. But cooking is one thing and baking a whole other thing. Many of us just never felt confident whipping up a romantic dessert at least until now. Weve all been dazzled by those scrum house creations on those cooking shows like account top chef but who can really do it in their own kitchen . Many find it too intimidating including dana grant who loves to cook. Are you an accomplished baker. I am not a good baker and tend to burn cookies. Reporter she is not alone which is why baking kits are becoming a new trend and come with nearly all the ingredients to make things like cookie, cupcakes, even rainbow pancakes. You supply the perishable, egg, milling and butter and order online and have kits delivered right no your door. Where this did come from . Were all looking for ways to simplify our lives. Drivethroughs, Onestop Stores and these are sort of in that same vain. You can subscribe to have new kits sent to you every couple months, the price 15 and up depending on how many you buy. But do these kits really deliver . We decided to check out two of them. One called so bakable and the other foodstirs. Roll it in your hands. Reporter dana wants to up her dessert game for her family and offered to try so bakables chocolate thumbprint cookies. Its a little more high end. Reporter 40 minutes later they look picture perfect but, of course, the proof is in the taste. Many i a good cook . That you are. Reporter the other baking kit, foodstirs likely to be a big hit by kids was cofounded by Sara Michelle geller. We started baking to the and having these fun moments. Reporter the company says it uses organic nongenetically modified ingredients sourced from small farms. We recruited another family to give this one a whirl. Laura burster and her three daughters wanted to try the r n rainbow cake pop kit. It all arrives and open it and the family can start having fun right away. The girls were into it with mom also in the mix. It was a fun activity that was edible at the end of the day. Reporter the end result . With baking kits you really want to find your niche. Theres something for everyone. Reporter of course, theres nothing like a little sugar to tighten that family bond but families say thats part of the fun when youre all in the kitchen baking. I brought in stunt eater. To help me out here. We have joanna saltz, the editorial director of delish. Com. You did a taste taste on three types of vanessa cupcakes including some from the bake kits, so bakable and foodstirs, this is homemade but what we didnt do we didnt add extra toppings so we wanted to get a true taste test. What did you think. Level Playing Field everything even they were all delicious and im not trying to play nonfavorites but check it owl. You have to do the hard work. So bakable, differentable, a tiny dry but could have been overbaked. Food of stirs, a little denser, more like a pound cake. Really good. Yeah. I mean i know. And the homemade ones a little crumbly, light but almost more like a cornbread. My favorite sobakeabole. If you do it homemaid this is cheaper. This will cost more but this comes with all the bells and whistles and sprinkles and vegan kind of dishes. Its for convenient and quicker, easier and can come right to your house. Here we go. Which one did you say the best. I think the sobakeable. Im a huge cupcake fan and weve been trying to figure out what the secret is. We thought we did a little work and its cornstarch. Adding a little bit of that to your flour helps break down the proteins and makes a light tender cake. The secret. Hey, theyre all good. Well be right back. Good morning. Im tamala edwards. Lets head over to karen rogers. Shes starting on 422. Good morning. And we have a true mess on 422. Were hearing about two separate accidents, both multivehicle accidents. At least 10 different vehicles may be involved. They had been blocking all lanes 422 eastbound at 23. Now theyre just blocking the right lane. Check out that travel time. It takes over an hour just to get between oaks and 202 whereas westbound its an easy seven minutes. Over an hour. Huge delays. Dont often see that bad on 422. Another accident involving a school bus happening. This is new in west sadsbury township chester county. Business route 30 lincoln highway at first avenue. At this point no reports of any injuries but our second accident this morning involving a school bus. The other one in the logan section and chopper6 was overhead there and thats where two children were transported, two students were on the bus and transported to be checked out. You can see the damage involved with that van. This is all happening at old york road and wagner avenue. Chopper6 was overhead in the logan section 69 of the city, one of two accidents this morning involving a school bus. Thank you, karen. Lets go out to meteorologist, david murphy to see what we can expect in accuweather. Good morning. Well, sunshine really busting out behind the clouds right now. A lot of blue opening up. Cold, though. 36 degrees in philadelphia. 34 in allentown. Hey, at least its not the 20s like where we were this time yesterday. This afternoon it is milder, a high of 53 degrees, spun sun and clouds. Later this evening showers arrive so bring an umbrella with you on your way out this evening. And then tomorrow clouds for the most part but very mild a high of 65. Some thursday night and friday morning showers possible. After that temperatures plunge on friday afternoon, were down into the upper 40s by dinnertime. Colder saturday with the possibility some of rain or snow at night, tam. Okay, good to know.

[ applause ] i sigh the women responded. The women responded but im confused. How many people clapping are actually married . [ laughter ] exactly. Oh, michael. That wasnt a lot of enthusiasm there. A slow clap. But the thing is its not a real deal. He just wrote this as satire. He wrote it about her. He wrote about the review he gets from her and says hes been married to his wife for 38 years. Something is working. He said marriage is an endless Performance Review which i agree with that and he said if he had to write a review about his wife, he would say shes perfect. Ali, youre perfect too. Oh, george. He sets you up like that. If you were to get a review, what do you think your review would say . Oh, i i am you know, i love asking questions you three cant answer. I love it. What would my review say . Well skip that and move on. How about that . We dont have to skip it. I always do it. I get in trouble for not being handy around the house. I would fail at that. Really. Yes. You got to be good at something. Shes keeping you around all these years. Uhhuh. She could call in at any second. You know ali. [ applause ] i didnt mean it that way, george. Im so sorry. [ laughter ] you just dug yourself a hole. Im going to leave now. Im so sorry.

Did you know right away when you were filming it it was going to be special . Yeah, i did. I didnt know how special, but i knew it was going to be special from the moment that ryan walked me through the script he called me up and gave me like the pitch of the story and i was like, is this a marvel movie, because this is deep. This goes place, you know, and i was so in awe of his courage to tell such a bold story and to do so without without compromising on the wow factor, you know. So he really takes us on this incredible ride and leaves us with so much to think about. We left the theater last night with that in mind. We were like youre searching your mind. Some things were subtle but resonates. Its going to resonate with a lot of people and very relevant to whats going on right now but the reaction from people already who have seen the film and the way that theyll greet you on social media. Were seeing you doing that as well. And just the emotion of seeing how people who have seen it already are reacting. Yeah, its been incredible. I mean, you know, my family just watched it in kenya and so im getting all these Text Messages and people there who are feeling so great and this whaconda is becoming this universal nation. To see how a film can bring a world together. We have a new clip, exclusive. Lets show everybody right now. Sofia, good to see you. [ speaking a Foreign Language ] [ cheers and applause ] well done. Thank you. Talk to me about it. Weve been blessed to meet some of your cast mates. Seems like such a cohesive group. Yeah, we really like each other. We had really Good Chemistry and, you know, we are a group of actors who i admire all the actors in this film. All of us in different points in our careers. We have Angela Bassett and Forest Whitaker and newbyes like Daniel Kaluuya and Latisha Wright and it was just so much fun to be working on a project we all felt was ours and there was a way in which ryan invited us to the creative table that we were able to put our voices in it and so when we watch it, we just feel the ownership. You know, its ours and i thoroughly enjoyed working with everybody. We had such Good Chemistry. We we went out a lot together, you know, we did a lot of dancing. Yeah, and singing. And karaoke. Yep. We actually have a superfan who is on facetime and they have no idea youre here but they have a question for you. Paula galloway, how are you . Hi, michael strahan. Why you talking to me . I know youre a superfan. Here, talk to the star. There you go. [ cheers and applause ] hello. And you have a question. I love you, girl. You are amazing. Congratulations on the movie. Thank you. Okay, so i have a question. This is a little selfish but when you coming back to broadway because im greedy but more importantly, you seen the social impact that representation has been giving us especially with this movie. And you have a different perspective than the rest of us do. What has it been like to see the impact on young kids who are so excited to see this movie, to be represented on the big screen . You i think we all see ourselves better when we can see ourselves in someone else and this film [ applause ] and this film is providing that to a whole new generation of people. I certainly didnt have this representation coming up thats one of the things that drives me as an actress, you know, to tell stories about people that look like me and to think that im that image for, you know, kids coming up is such a blessing, its such an honor and i just feel extremely, extremely fortunate to have this moment in this world and our kids can see this and its not just its definitely for the black kids out there that dont see themselves in superheroes but also the fact that i was able to identify with white superheroes all my life. I think its a high time that the other thing comes around, you know, the opposite. Like, you know, so [ applause ] paula, shell be back to broadway when she gets a break. Who knows when that will be. Paula, thank you for your question. Thank you. Nice to meet you. [ applause ] that was fun. And we got to say you put you hit it right on the head. This is not a movie about superhero from africa. This is about powerful people and especially women, i mean the images of powerful women were so amazing to see last night. And you crushed it. You absolutely crushed it. Thank you. And black panther is in thesers friday. Make sure you check it out. You know, everybody in our audience, youre going to go home with tickets courtesy of imax to see it. Theyre excited.
