captioning sponsored by cbs this is the "cbs evening news." >> good evening everyone i'm jeff glor with a western edition of the broadcast and the weekend is off to a run at the white house. word today of two major announcements coming monday. the first, president obama has picked a new head of the struggling va. former procter & gamble ceo robert mcdonald will be the next secretary of veterans affairs. he is 61 years old, he's a 1975 west point graduate. the va has been without a permanent leader since the reservation of former secretary eric shenk sheikh on the 30th. they do need senates approval. the second piece of news the white house also tomorrow will ask more than $2 billion to handle a surge of illegal immigrants. more than 50,000 children without parents have been stopped by u.s. agents in the past nine months. for now, they're being housed in overflowing shelters. the question is how to return them. mark albert has more on that.

>> the sudden influx on children has left them scrambling for options from college campus in virginia to an empty wal-mart in new york. republican congressman michael mccaul said the numbers, unprecedented. >> it's a crises like nothing i've ever seen before at the border. we have refugee camps and my and your home state of texas. it's a very serious concern. i don't think the flow will stop until the message of deterrent is sent. >> with broader immigration reformed stalled until after the midterm elections, president obama will now ask congress to take emergency action. his request will include at least $2 billion for better screening and housing. fast track authority for faster deportations. and tougher punishment for those caught smuggling children. the administration is also trying to stop a pervasive rumor that children who cross the u.s. border will be allowed to stay. the president delivered this message to central american parents during an interview with abc.

>> do not send your children to the borders. if they do make it, they'll get sent back. more importantly, they may not make it. >> the white house calls this an urgent humanitarian situation, and says it's request to congress will include a border security surge and significant increase in immigration judges. jeff. >> glor: mark al bert, thank you very much. the battle for the control of the iraqi city ot tikrit stepped up today with government forces posting additional air power while sunni militants made new claims of their own. charlie d'agata is in baghdad tonight. >> the iraqi military says it's troops have continued to push toward crete and handed out this video as proof that they're gaining ground while isis militants and sunni insurgents in a streak northern city. military spokesman said today, "we can confirm the morale of the enemy has started collapsing completely." but that may be an optimistic assessment, and meant to boost their own morale. local security sources say

fierce fighting from militants for government troops to pull back to around 15 miles south of the city. the iraqi military has insisted what's needed most is air power and repeatedly criticized the united states for not doing enough to provide it. iraqi air force for years has used small propeller aircraft, most recently loaded with u.s. hell-fire missiles to hit isis positions but it hasn't been enough. so iraq made something of a show of it's delivery of used fighter jets that came from russia and all the way these secondhand jets may look a little worse for wear, but iraqis say they'll have them flying bombing missions as early as tuesday with the help of russian experts. that's if they find the pilots qualified to fly them. what is clear is it's going to take more than a handful of aging fighter jets to defeat isis militants.

a source told us today that the iraqi military may have severely under-estimated the strength and determination of isis saying in the past you had terrorists or you had an army. in this case, you have both. jeff. >> glor: charlie d'agata, thank you very much. isis by the way, short for the islamic state of iraq and syria changing its name to is for the islamic states. claims its creating a come tree on the land it seized. iraq was the focus of secretary state kerry's just completed diplomatic mission to the middle-east margaret brennan was there and has this reporter's notebook. >> traveling with the secretary of state always has a sense of urgency to it. but this trip had a different level of intensity. in part because of the rush to stop the advancing radical sunni insurgents from seizing territory in two stops in iraq were kept secret. in baghdad, kerry flew in via u.s. military plane, unlike our

last trip there, kerry wore a helmet and flap-jacket. here inside the u.s. the largest diplomatic outpost in the world seems virtually empty. all about essentially u.s. personnel have been moved into safer locations, some safer locations, some outside the country. >> this is a critical moment for iraq's future. >> in meeting with iraqi leaders, kerry was emphatic. the u.s. would not act their airport, a political solution was necessary. he stopped short of asking prime minister nouri al-maliki to step down, even though an obstacle to forming a new unity government. that complicated his pitch to leaders in northern iraq who refused to work with maliki. kerry maintained a grueling schedule. six cities in five days. kerry's job here in paris was to get arab ministers to help him persuade the iraqi government to do what's necessary to quell the violence. they're worried it could spill across their own borders. on his last stop, he consulted

with the king of saudi arabia the single most important voice. the hope is the king will help persuade iraqi leaders to follow through on their pledge to form a new government as early as tuesday. margaret brennan, cbs news, washington. >> glor: heavy rain have been pounding parts of tennessee this weekend. sections of memphis are flooded. officials say at least seven people had to be rescued from mobile homes and others had to be evacuated. rain is expected to continue into the evening and that's not the only severe weather out there. eric fisher is chief meteorologist at our sister station wbz. what are you looking at? >> another evening for big storms. big storm over southern canada right down across the plains. that's what we'll be watching for tonight. across iowa, northern missouri eastern nebraska. we could see large hail and damaging winds -- wind gusts and of course the threat of the heavy rain.

not english speaking. >> this doctor has been practicing in california for five years. how long did you have to wait for a translator. >> at best 30 minutes at worst up to two or three hours. >> too often patients rely on family members to translate. >> that's one of the big ones. often times they summarize things in an attempt to convey information faster. that actually loses a lot of the detail that we need to make decisions in clinics. >> it could get worse with the spike in insurance sign ups among non-english speaking patients. >> what's at stake. >> healthcare, people's rights, people's well being. >> in california some relief may come from a bill now before the state legislature that would add 7,000 licensed medical interpreters. there are currently just 800. >> do you take medicines normally? >> no. >> this doctor has heard 11 different languages in her examine room. how difficult is it to give your patient the care they they had if you can't understand each

is exaggerating or faking mental illness. on monday the court will hear the expert finding from the states of pistorius' mental health. and if this impacts on any way on his guilt or innocence. dr. alexander barday is a psychiatrist. >> is this malingering, is this an act of intense emotions associated with this particular situation or crime. >> they believe defense introduced the anxiety disorder to detract from pistorius' performance on the witness stand but the prosecutor called for a psychiatric evaluation. >> the prosecutors by forcing this helps to pull the gut out of oscar's already destroyed credibility. >> despite his month-long hiatus he will most likely be found fit to continue standing trial. and the case will proceed with a calling of up to three more

defense witnesses. deborah patta, cbs news, johannesburg south africa. >> glor: later are wages about to go up. when the cbs evening news continues. get an auto insurance quote worse and worse.rthritis, i had intense joint pain that got then my rheumatologist prescribed enbrel. i'm phil mickelson, pro golfer. enbrel helps relieve pain and stop joint damage.
