7:07 am
of the most important games in american soccer history. win and move on lose and go home. but getting past belgium in the knockout stage will be no easy task. >> a very talented belgium team that we have to prove that we are better. we have to respect because it's a good team but we also have all the tools in the world to beat them. >> belgium has a roster filled with young talents. many pundits chose belgium as their dark horse pick to win the world cup before the tournament began. >> we're not satisfied just getting to round 16 we want to do more, challenge against belgium. they have a lot of quality players. at the same time we played to the best of our ability, we can get the right result. >> the americans are getting a much-needed offensive boost with the return of striker jozy altidore who missed the last two games with a strained hamstring. whether he starts or only plays for a few minutes, his return is coming at just the right time.

7:15 am
without the help of the u.s. military. >> i am hopeful there will be help from the american side. >> including air strikes? >> on that point. >> on that point. >> on that point, and in general. >> reporter: but the united states has already spent $25 billion training and arming an iraqi military that turned tail and ran when things got tough. americans can teach iraqi soldiers how to fire a gun, but they can't teach courage. >> we have the courage and here we have the nation that we teach all the people in the world how to be a man, how to be a hero. this is iraq. >> reporter: an iraq that is currently in deep trouble. the new government has already slammed into a brick wall. we learned they had to call off proceedings for the day after sunni and kurdish lawmakers failed to turn up after a short break. margaret?

7:17 am
administrative action. i would rather see permanent fixes to the issue we face. certainly that's true on immigration. that's why today i'm beginning to fix as much of our immigration system as i can on my own, without congress. >> reporter: that effort will include increased resource ss for border security and a request for the departments of justice and homeland security to find additional actions. >> if congress will not do their job, at least we can do ours. i expect recommendations before the end of the summer. and i intend to adopt those recommendations without further delay. >> it's been clear for weeks now that a vote on immigration reform was unlikely. speaker boehner mocked his own members fear of the political repercussions. >> here is the attitude. oh, don't make me do this. oh this is too hard. you should hear him. you know we get elected to make
7:18 am
choice choices. >> this morning continues president obama's unapologetic efforts to go around an uncooperative congress issuing executive actions including 30% cut in pollution from power plants 23 actions on gun safety and a raise in the minimum wage for federal contractors. >> if house republicans are really concerned about me taking too many executive actions, the best solution to that is passing bills. >> reporter: now what this means for immigration, according to a white house official is an effort to slow deportations and look for ways to provide temporary legal status and work permits. this is something the president warned congress he would do if they didn't. charlie? >> bill thanks. general motors is recalling another 8.2 million vehicles this morning to fix faulty ignition switches pontiac grand prixs, chevy malibus. gm officials say they know of
