of philando castile. >> i told him to get his hand up. >> his outraged family speaking out. the system continues to fail black people. and royal celebration. the pomp and circumstance for queen elizabeth's birthday. the annual trooping the color and the queen's poignant message to the people. hey, good morning and we start here with the developing story overseas involving that u.s. navy destroyer. seven sailors missing right now after their ship collided with a tanker off the coast of japan. >> questions abound as to how this could have happened. we want you to look at this video of "uss fitzgerald" limping back into port in japan. this as u.s. and japanese ships and aircraft are frantically conducting search and rescue missions. hoping to find those missing sailors. >> five people were medevacked off of the boat. we're going to kick off our coverage with abc's matt gutman reporting from los angeles. matt, good morning to you. >> reporter: hey, good morning, dan and paula. hard to overstate how serious an incident this was. now the navy is still searching for those seven missing sailors. they have multiple search planes scouring the water, but because of the damage that you just saw, it's so severe it's also possible those sailors could still be in the wreckage on board. just minutes ago we learned that a total of five sailors had to be medevacked including the commander of the ship. this morning the "uss fitzgerald" has been tugged back to port, but at least seven sailors remain missing. the navy saying multiple sailors were injured in the monstrous collision with the container ship, five sailors hurt badly enough, they had to be medevacked. one of them the ship's commanding officer. the japanese coast guard leading the initial rescue. you can see responders crowded near the wreckage to extract the wounded. helicopter footage shows the destroyer's mangled midsection, the damage caving in compartments, destroying ship machinery and its radio room. the navy saying damage both above and below the water line caused major flooding. those red hoses seen pumping seawater out of the belly of the ship which typically has a crew of nearly 300. the navy says this 30,000-ton container ship and the much smaller 9,000-ton u.s. destroyer collided in open water 56 miles southwest of yokosuka, japan. the navy telling abc news this morning that the extent of the personnel injuries aboard the ship is still being assessed. now, there are two major questions going forward. which of the ships had the right of way and perhaps a bigger issue that even though it was the dead of night, how did a ship with some of the most sophisticated radar and sonar on the planet neither see or manage to avoid something the size of a small island bearing down on it. dan, paula. >> questions we'll be addressing >> in just a moment. thanks for your reporting. joining us now from washington is retired marine colonel and abc news contributor steve ganyard. steve, good morning to you. and you just heard matt's question, the most glaring one that we all have, these ships aren't traveling swiftly on one another's radar. how could a collision have happened? >> paula, it's hard to imagine how it could have. as matt said, these are two very sophisticated ships, and they should have seen each other. on the other hand, this happened really just about ten miles outside of the mouth of tokyo bay, which is one of the busiest ports in the world. it was the middle of the night and so oftentimes what happens in these collisions at sea, it's a series of mistakes on both ships that lead to a tragic event. >> we are as everybody knows at a time of heightened fears over north korea. what kind of impact could taking a destroyer like this out of commission, what kind of impact could that have on our ability to defend ourselves and our allies? >> dan, the "fitzgerald" is one of the most sophisticated ships and has a special radar and special set of missiles that could intercept atmospherically in space any kind of north korean missile that may be shot at japan or south korea or u.s. bases in the region, so the navy is going to want to backfill this very quickly because the "fitzgerald" is going to be out of service for a long time. >> steve ganyard, thank you. back at home this morning we're hearing reports of an increasingly frustrated president trump who is dealing with that unremitting drumbeat of news about the russia investigation. >> the associated press this morning quotes trump advisers and confidants as describing an angry president yelling at television sets in the white house covering coverage of the investigation. now, according to the ap trump has told associates he believes he has the legal authority to fire special counsel robert mueller. abc's david wright is at the white house for us. david, good morning to you. >> reporter: good morning, paula and dan. this weekend the president is off to camp david, his very first trip to the presidential retreat, and this father's day getaway comes after a blistering week for trump, one where his frustrations do seem to be growing about the russia investigation, even as he struggles to change the subject. in miami's little havana, president trump drove another stake into president obama's legacy signing an executive order to scrap obama's policy of detente with cuba. >> effectively immediately, i am canceling the last administration's completely one-sided deal with cuba. >> reporter: cuba blasted back rejecting what it called manipulation for political purposes and double standards in the treatment of human rights. but trump upstaged himself acknowledging for the first time in a tweet that he is, indeed, under investigation after firing fbi director james comey. i am being investigated for firing the fbi director by the man who told me to fire the fbi director, witch hunt. his closest allies share his frustration. >> the president of the united states cannot obstruct justice. if he wants to fire the fbi director, all he has to do is fire him. >> reporter: former house speaker newt gingrich clearly felt differently in the's 90s when he voted to impeach bill clinton for obstructing justice during the monica lewinsky investigation. just in case the president and the president's men are lawyering up. trump has added a high-profile washington attorney to his personal legal time. vice president pence has hired a personal attorney. even the president's longtime lawyer is getting a lawyer. for all its frustrations, the presidency does seem to be good for donald trump's bottom line. a new financial disclosure form released overnight lists assets worth nearly a billion and a half dollars. his golf courses, his hotels are doing a booming business. he still owns them, but one former ethics czar for the bush administration tells us what we still don't know is where he borrows money from. dan, paula. >> all right. david wright, thanks for your reporting from the white house this morning. joining us from washington is political analyst and pollster kristen soltis anderson as dan lovingly refers to as ksa. >> she love is it. >> she'll love it, right? or she will love it. kristen, as we mentioned the president believes he has the legal authority to fire the special counsel robert mueller, and according to the ap some of trump's circle are preaching caution but others including his son don jr. say mueller must go. if he were to fire mueller how do you think that would go down. >> it would be very explosive if he made that decision because as soon as it was announced there will be a special prosecutor and as soon as it was announced it would be robert mueller, a figure very respected across the political spectrum here in washington, this gave a lot of trump's allies on capitol hill, republicans, the opportunity to say, look, this is good. he's a good investigator. this will clear this all up and then we can move on. trump's allies on the hill continue to say this would be a good thing. this would put a big break between trump and republicans in congress. >> let me ask you about this nugget from "the new york times" this morning, and i'm quoting here, he, the president, is frustrated, friends say, and unsure what to do apart from tweeting which he views as the most direct and effective way of defending himself and venting his anger. so in your view are these tweets hurting or helping him? >> i think donald trump is his own worst enemy when it comes to these tweets. it's understandable if you're him and you think you're innocent and you're frustrated with the way things are going and you want to get your message out. donald trump's been never shy about saying he's not a fan of the media but with these tweets he's continuing to stir up trouble, keep the focus on the story when, for instance, folks in -- on capitol hill would rather be talking about things like infrastructure, health care, tax reform. it shifts the narrative and makes it seem that he's continues to struggle against this investigation, cover-up where he claims there's no crime. >> now, it appears that trump's base is standing firmly behind him and you as a pollster do you see any vulnerabilities? >> his numbers have not been great but they have stayed fairly stable throughout the first couple of months of his presidency and this russia investigation is one in particular where most of his supporters tend to think that's in the right. this isn't what will break them away from him but rather if there isn't delivery on things like health care reform, tax reform, economic growth, these are the things that would make voters come back to him or begin to leave him in bigger numbers. >> the base seems to be holding firm, kristen soltis anderson, aka ksa, thank you very much for joining us on a saturday morning. we appreciate. we turn to another story break overnight, the protesters out in the streets in minnesota after a jury there acquitted an officer in the fatal shooting of philando castile. >> now, the case made headlines all over the world when castile's girlfriend, remember she took to facebook live in the aftermath of that shooting with her boyfriend dying in the seat next to her. here's abc's eva pilgrim. >> reporter: overnight outrage, thousands of demonstrators marching in protest over the not guilty verdict in the manslaughter trial of a former police officer. a minnesota jury acquitting the officer who fatally shot philando castile moments before this infamous video was live streamed on facebook by his girlfriend. >> he's licensed to carry. he was trying to get out his i.d. and his wallet out his pocket, and he let the officer know. >> reporter: the saints anthony police officer holding that gun then 29-year-old jeronimo yanez, castile's girlfriend calmly recording as her young daughter reassured her from the backseat. [ screaming ] >> it's okay. i'm right here with you. >> reporter: castile there in the driver's seat fatally wounded. prosecutors charging yanez with second degree manslaughter. at trial arguing the officer panicked and lost control. >> i told him to not reach for it. i told him to get his hand up. >> reporter: castile's family claiming that he was racially profiled. >> reporter: the system continues to fail black people. >> reporter: but defense attorneys arguing yanez fired because he thought castile was reaching for his gun. this morning, yanez's team satisfied with the verdict while castile's family says they've been denied justice. castile's mother taking to facebook live after the verdict was announced. >> now they got free rein to keep killing us any kind of way they want to. >> reporter: and yanez will not be returning to the police force. the city of st. anthony saying it's not in the public's best interest. the two sides are now negotiating a voluntary separation agreement. >> so much anger here. eva, thank you. overnight bill cosby breaking his silence speaking out for the first time since going on trial for sexual assault. >> this as jurors are going to be reporting in for a sixth day of deliberations this morning and abc's linsey davis has more. >> reporter: late friday night bill cosby broke his silence with this message. >> i want to thank the jury for their long days, their honest work. >> reporter: an appeal that specifically targeted the jurors. >> i think bill cosby and his publicist are trying to send a subtle message to the jury to wrap things up. >> reporter: cosby's statement addressed a sequestered jury supposedly isolated from the media and his statement. >> oftentimes in these cases, things that get played out in the media have a way of making their way back to the jurors. >> reporter: the jury of 12 has already deliberated for 52 hours without a verdict. the trial itself was only 36 hours. and now the defense is calling for a mistrial. the judge chastised the defense for repeatedly calling for a mistrial due to the length of deliberations but he also added if the jury comes back deadlocked again, he intends to act meaning a mistrial. so far the jury has asked more than a dozen questions. on friday they asked for phone logs of calls between cosby and his accuser, andrea constand, along with cosby's deposition from 2005 where he talked about obtaining quaaludes to give to other women prior to sexual encounters though he never admitted to doing so without their knowledge. the jury also asked to hear the definition of reasonable doubt. for "good morning america," linsey davis, abc news, norristown, pennsylvania. >> and we will be following that trial every step of the way. >> yes, we will. a lot of other news this morning, and for that over to dr. ron claiborne. good morning, sir. >> i knew that was coming. diana and paula, good morning to you, adrienne, good morning, everyone. we begin in

the family of otto warmbier, an american student who was released after 17 months of imprisonment in north korea. it's not clear if rodman met with the north korean leader kim jong-un. in massachusetts, a woman accused of encouraging her boyfriend to kill himself before his 2014 suicide has been found guilty of involuntary manslaughter. the judge who rendered that verdict said 20-year-old michelle carter encouraged conrad roy to get back in his vehicle as it filled with lethal gas. carter now faces up to 20 years in prison. and new details about the death of actress carrie fisher. the l.a. county coroner's office said she died from sleep apnea. a combination of other factors including heart disease, but said the exact cause of death cannot be conclusively determined. officials said fisher had multiple drugs in her system but could not say whether they contributed to the 60-year-old's death which was last december. and new this morning, video from inside a ferry after it collided with a jetty off the coast of massachusetts. the ferry carrying some 48 people were traveling from nantucket to hyannis. rough seas made the overnight rescue difficult. several people had to be air-lifted to area hospitals but they are expected to be okay. and finally they say if you do the crime, you'll have to do the time. in this case the time served though was meant -- turned out to be his extreme embarrassment, hours of extreme embarrassment. 17-year-old marc anthony doyle admitted he took $30,000 worth of goods from his home, his boss' home. but rather than pressing charges, the boss, a texas businessman, made him wear an outfit, you see there and hold a sign telling everyone that he was guilty. doyle returned the stolen items and check this out, his boss let him keep his job. >> what? >> and the clothes presumably. >> probably optional. >> rubber rainboots and a pink long tank top. >> sparkle boots, i think they were. >> hours of embarrassment
