:00:13. > :00:19.perfect storm. Severe weather warnings with storms and tornadoes

:00:20. > :00:27.caught on tape. The other concern, gas prices spiking. A new and

:00:28. > :00:33.massive recall from GM, the stock suddenly halted on Wall Street. The

:00:34. > :00:36.breaking headline on women's help tonight, one of the most important

:00:37. > :00:42.annual exams and the biggest change coming your way. The showdown, a

:00:43. > :00:48.dramatic video caught on tape to wean a trucker and a police officer

:00:49. > :01:03.going at it. What did the trucker says he caught the caught doing.

:01:04. > :01:09.Whose side are you on? Good evening. It is great to have you

:01:10. > :01:14.with us. 45 million Americans are watching the sky tonight and bracing

:01:15. > :01:23.for severe weather. One driver was braving this white knuckle commute.

:01:24. > :01:31.Then there was hail the size of baseball `` baseballs. A tornado

:01:32. > :01:37.tears through Wisconsin. Let's get right to the radar. This is the

:01:38. > :01:44.trouble spot right now. Our meteorologist is standing by but

:01:45. > :01:56.first we will go to our correspondent. On his weather in

:01:57. > :02:03.Idaho today. `` ominous. Knocking down trees and tearing off roofs.

:02:04. > :02:12.The ground already saturated is giving way in Iowa, swallowing

:02:13. > :02:26.cars. Millions in the storm zone are nervously watching warning after

:02:27. > :02:32.warning. In Wisconsin, chaos. 90 mph winds with debris swirling in every

:02:33. > :02:35.direction. Iowa got six inches of rain in just an hour and a half

:02:36. > :02:39.Sunday triggering flash floods and so much water that crews had to

:02:40. > :02:43.rescue people from their homes. Tonight, we have flood warnings

:02:44. > :02:49.across the region and the rivers are running high. Normally the staircase

:02:50. > :02:53.would lead down to a walkway along the river but tonight, it is just a

:02:54. > :03:02.shortcut to the water. The entire walkway is submerged. By back to the

:03:03. > :03:13.hotspot you are tracking. We watched that these start today in Nebraska

:03:14. > :03:20.`` beast. It blew across Iowa and resulted in a severe weather watch.

:03:21. > :03:26.A dangerous situation for the commute tonight in Milwaukee. It is

:03:27. > :03:31.just tonight, tomorrow the risk does all the way up to Arkansas. We also

:03:32. > :03:34.have to look in the Southeast because we are watching a

:03:35. > :03:38.development of captured thunderstorms which are on the verge

:03:39. > :03:44.of becoming a tropical depression. It has an 80% chance. Through the

:03:45. > :03:48.weekend, we are going through the potential tracks of the storm. If it

:03:49. > :04:00.becomes a tropical depression, it will move up across the Carolinas.

:04:01. > :04:04.Rip currents will be an issue. If it is not the weather, it is the gas

:04:05. > :04:09.prices with 41 million Americans travelling this holiday weekend,

:04:10. > :04:15.eyes are on the prices, rising for 16 days straight. Today it is 21

:04:16. > :04:21.cents more than this time last year. Another concern for drivers,

:04:22. > :04:27.the breaking headline about General Motors. They announced another major

:04:28. > :04:39.recall. Seven points 6 million cars have been recalled `` 7.6 million.

:04:40. > :04:46.This halted the trade on Wall Street for a time. Now we go to our

:04:47. > :04:50.correspondant. Tonight, a devastating blow for America's

:04:51. > :05:00.largest automaker. GM announcing another round of recalls linked to a

:05:01. > :05:07.faulty ignition 's which `` switch. It is the most recalls by a single

:05:08. > :05:12.car company in one year ever. I am working day and night to correct

:05:13. > :05:15.this issue and ensure that it never happens again. The troubled

:05:16. > :05:21.automaker is also announcing that it will pay a staggering amount to

:05:22. > :05:31.cover the recalls. Slamming the brakes on GM's stock, shares closed

:05:32. > :05:40.down at 1%. This is all linked to 13 deaths, and it was announced today

:05:41. > :05:49.that there would be no limit to how much families would receive. GM will

:05:50. > :05:52.pay what is deserved. The car maker is facing a criminal investigation

:05:53. > :05:56.by the government and a civil lawsuit accusing GM of intentionally

:05:57. > :06:06.covering up defects and putting human lives in jeopardy.

:06:07. > :06:11.A fiery message from President Obama involving immigration reform.

:06:12. > :06:17.Republicans have been firing back on the surge of young immigrant

:06:18. > :06:22.the United States. President Obama the United States. President Obama

:06:23. > :06:25.put Congress on notice, saying that if they did not vote on immigration

:06:26. > :06:35.reform, he would take executive action. Our correspondent is just

:06:36. > :06:42.back from the border. We saw it ourselves, our cameras

:06:43. > :06:46.were right there with border control as they encountered a surge of

:06:47. > :06:54.mothers and children pleading for sanctuary. A frustrated President

:06:55. > :06:59.Obama, calling it a humanitarian crisis that can only be fixed by

:07:00. > :07:04.immigration reform. Today, he announced that he could not wait on

:07:05. > :07:08.the Republican house anymore. I am beginning a new effort to fix as

:07:09. > :07:13.much of the immigration system as I can on my own without Congress. The

:07:14. > :07:18.first executive action is a border surge, deploying all available

:07:19. > :07:22.agents to the southern frontier. Democrats are demanding that the

:07:23. > :07:27.president act alone but the GOP is already threatening to sue, alleging

:07:28. > :07:34.that he is overstepping the Constitution. He continues to ignore

:07:35. > :07:37.laws that he himself signed in. The president says his staff is devising

:07:38. > :07:41.a plan that will fix part of the immigration system by the end of

:07:42. > :07:46.summer. Sources are telling us that you can expect the president to cut

:07:47. > :07:52.back on deportations which will be controversial.

:07:53. > :07:58.The troubling headline from Israel in the case of three missing

:07:59. > :08:03.teenagers. One of them was a US citizen. Authorities believe that

:08:04. > :08:12.the boys are dead, found not far from where they went missing. Now we

:08:13. > :08:17.go to our correspondant. What is coming? The grief and outrage over

:08:18. > :08:21.these murders tonight in Israel is extraordinary. The boys bodies were

:08:22. > :08:27.found under a pile of rocks in an open field. He disappeared from a

:08:28. > :08:35.hitchhiking stop in the West Bank and among them was a dual US citizen

:08:36. > :08:42.whose family came to Israel from Oakland. The FBI is joining the

:08:43. > :08:45.investigation tonight. It is prompting one of Israel's largest

:08:46. > :08:53.search and security operations in more than a decade. Hamas was

:08:54. > :09:00.quickly blamed for the abductions. 400 Palestinians were arrested and

:09:01. > :09:03.five were killed. Hamas denies any involvement but tonight, the Prime

:09:04. > :09:08.Minister has said that they were abducted and murdered in cold blood

:09:09. > :09:15.by human animals and that Hamas is responsible and will pay. Whatever

:09:16. > :09:23.the Israeli response, it has clearly dimmed hopes about the possibility

:09:24. > :09:31.of a peace agreement. Thank you. A late word on Iraq. 300 more troops

:09:32. > :09:37.will be sent to Iraq to protect the embassy in Baghdad which brings the

:09:38. > :09:41.number of troops to roughly 750. Another major ruling from the

:09:42. > :09:45.Supreme Court affecting millions of American women. It comes down to

:09:46. > :09:48.whether an employer can deny coverage for contraception over

:09:49. > :09:58.religious beliefs. One company fought and today they won.

:09:59. > :10:06.A victory today at the Supreme Court for many religious Americans. Also

:10:07. > :10:14.the businesses they own. This store was founded by the Green family. Our

:10:15. > :10:18.faith was important in starting this company. When the affordable care

:10:19. > :10:32.act became law and required companies to provide contraception,

:10:33. > :10:37.the Green family objected. They said that it restricted their religious

:10:38. > :10:54.liberty. An 8524 decision, they agreed. Corporations our people. ``

:10:55. > :11:07.are. These laws are designed to extend to people. They'd Ginsburg

:11:08. > :11:10.wrote an impassioned defence. She said that corporate owners are

:11:11. > :11:23.trying to opt out of all kinds of laws, such as vaccinations. The

:11:24. > :11:27.court has ventured into a minefield. Many women around the country and

:11:28. > :11:32.some of the justices believe this could limit women's access to

:11:33. > :11:37.affordable contraceptives. The court has proposed a solution. They have

:11:38. > :11:43.said that the taxpayer could pick up the tab instead of employers. To

:11:44. > :11:47.another breaking headline involving women and health. This involves a

:11:48. > :11:55.visit to the doctor that many make every year. This is about a pelvic

:11:56. > :12:01.exam. Instead of Pap smears, there will be a new recommendation.

:12:02. > :12:13.Tonight, a new change to pelvic exams. We are joined. They are

:12:14. > :12:20.recommending no annual public exam for the average woman. This is for

:12:21. > :12:24.women who are at risk of cancer but are not pregnant and I having no

:12:25. > :12:29.symptoms. This is because this test is not save lives and is not that it

:12:30. > :12:35.picking up cancer. Despite the fact that you can wait for three years,

:12:36. > :12:39.what are you telling your patience? Despite the weight to the public

:12:40. > :12:46.exam, and you still need to come and see your yearly exam. It is a very

:12:47. > :12:54.important visit. Now to Brazil. You will remember that moment of

:12:55. > :12:58.celebrating in the locker room for team USA. Will America 's star

:12:59. > :13:02.player take the field and what about one of the referees? Is he partial

:13:03. > :13:17.to the other team? Our reporter is there. He is back. Altidore is ready

:13:18. > :13:23.to play against Belgium. 14 USA, it is when all go home. The underdogs

:13:24. > :13:36.are confident. We are hungry for more. Tim USA is curious about the

:13:37. > :13:41.referee as signed to them. `` Team. There is a worry about possible

:13:42. > :13:46.bias. We hope he continues to referee the way he is done so far.

:13:47. > :13:51.It is not a good feeling. World Cup fever is region on. Some fans are so

:13:52. > :13:57.anxious, they have become superstitious. What does that mean?

:13:58. > :14:09.Whatever happens happens, but hopefully we can win. I am putting a

:14:10. > :14:14.hex on the opposing team. We are charging from all across the world.

:14:15. > :14:23.It Tim USA wins tomorrow, this celebration will continue. `` team.

:14:24. > :14:29.We are moving on to an emergency landing from Chicago and California.

:14:30. > :14:34.These passengers were terrified. More on what happened next. Look at

:14:35. > :14:44.that. In the back of this jet in flight, an evacuation slide

:14:45. > :14:50.inflated. I heard it inflate like an airbag inflates in a car. It

:14:51. > :14:53.deployed at 38,000 feet. It was frightening at first. The first

:14:54. > :14:58.thing that went through my mind was that it opened and it probably

:14:59. > :15:03.popped out the back door. The back door didn't open, but this is what

:15:04. > :15:10.an inflating slide looks like. Think about that opening inside a plane.

:15:11. > :15:18.It was like a snake. At first, it was alarming. They declared an

:15:19. > :15:25.emergency and headed for Kansas. The control tower asked about injuries.

:15:26. > :15:30.The force of inflation has pinned flight attendants, but in this case,

:15:31. > :15:34.they had started the beverage service. No one was waiting to use

:15:35. > :15:38.the bathroom and no one was hurt. Passengers used the stairs to exit.

:15:39. > :15:49.Thank you. There are still more ahead. There was a truck taking on a

:15:50. > :15:54.police officer who pulled him over. What the truckers as he caught the

:15:55. > :15:58.police officer doing. Whose side will you be on? And outrage after

:15:59. > :16:05.learning that Facebook conducted an experiment on you without you even

:16:06. > :16:08.knowing. What the they'd do is coming up.
