7:05 am
union with francis, our pope. and now here you are. [ applause ] >> about 18,000 of the faithful packed into the famous midtown arena to witness the pope's message about faith in the big city. >> translator: the people who walked in darkness have seen a great light, the pope said. and we ourselves are witnesses of that light. >> but perhaps no one wanted to see him more than the parents of this ailing child, who were moved to tears when the pope gave the child his blessing. it was a tearful moment, capping off a long day in the big apple. started with a trip to the united nations where after the
7:06 am
warm greeting pope francis scolded for the mideast and africa. speaking in his native spanish he said the flood of refugees was a great summons to world leaders to check their consciouses. and he paraded where the world trade towers once stood. met with families lost lives and took part in an interservice to remember victims and honor the survivors. >> they show us their face of pain, pain that leaves us speechless but yet screams to heaven. the pope continued on the o east harlem. where excited children showed off their projects and taught him how to use a smart board. or at least they tried.

7:10 am
but the timing now just seemed right. >> it's been an hon tore serve -- >> fighting bacteria ks th tear. he woke up ready to move on. >> last night i started thinking and this morning i woke up and i said my prayers, as i always do. and i decided, you know, today is the day i'm going to do this. as simple as that. >> the tea party wave of 2010 handed boehner the speaker's gavel. but throughout his nearly five year tenure he struggled with a africatu fractured and more conservative caucus. he said he was putting party over his own career. >> it's become clear to me that this prolonged leadership turmoil would do irreparable harm to the institution. >> his announcement brought cheers at a conservative gathering in washington, where some republican presidential
7:11 am
candidates like senator ted cruz welcomed the news. >> yesterday john boehner was speaker of the house. y'all come to town and somehow that changes. my only request is can you come more often? >> john bayner is a good man. >> at the white house, president obama said he was surprised by b boehner's decision and praised the public speaker even though they have been on the opposite end of political fights. >> someone who understands that in government, in governance you don't get a hundred percent of what you want. i'm not going to pre judge who the next speaker will be. that's something that will have to be worked through in the house. >> the leading candidate is majority leader kevin mccarthy but he may face a challenge from texas congressman jeff hensarling, who's spokesman said he will decide by next week.
7:12 am
with a budget fight around the corner, boehner was working to keep the government open through the rest of the year. conservative members are insisting on defunding planned parenthood as part of the next spending plan. but a shut down is far less likely for now. >> so what will be the impact of boehner's abrupt decision to leave congress in the middle of his third term as speaker? let's talk about that and other political issues with steve shigaris. good morning. >> good morning. >> what was it? the pope, the pressure? what was it that finally led to this decision. >> i think this was probably a lot of all that. the hard line conservatives threatening shut down, they were also threatening to oust boehner. and he didn't want to put his members through a tough vote and
7:13 am
the turmoil of deciding whether they should support him or not. >> and the whole issue of the shut down, and now actually seems less likely that is going happen. how does that work exactly? >> the shut down, the funding runs out for the government at the end of the month. so congress needs to figure out how to keep the government running. they are going pass some sort of short-term spending bill. but they were -- the right wing of the republican party was sort of threatening to hold that up in order to force a defunding of planned parenthood. now that boehner is gone i think you are going to see some sort of short-term budget agreement before the end of the month. >> look at the roster and second in line is kevin mccarthy. what difference would that make if he's nominated? and do you think it will be him? >> the problem for mccarthy is a deep distrust of the establishment by hard line conservatives and tea party members. these members were elected to shake things up.
7:14 am
they may not stand by and rubber stamp somebody like mccarthy. the infights really it isn't quadrillion f ideal for them. >> where the challenges for mccarthy serious? >> they could be. and that is the decision that these hard liners are going to have to take. are they going to push back against mccarthy. by the way somebody who's very highly regarded by his colleague. somebody who's been out there on the road raising a lot of money for republican members. so there is good will on mccarthy's part. do they challenge him or try to put people up in the lower majority leader, majority whip spots and try to gain influence there. >> snz not only happening in the midst of a possible shut down but in the midst of a very large gop presidential field. how do you think this is going to affect that? >> the outsider flames are already being fanned by people like donald trump and cruz.
7:15 am
the question is will this infighting result in such polarization that absolutely nothing gets done on the hill? and if so, as the majority in both houses, the republicans and the eventual republican nominee will have to explain that to voters. >> steve, thank you so much. tune into cbs tomorrow morning when outgoing house speaker john boehner will be john dickerson's guest across the nation. his first live interview since announcing. >> republican presidential candidate donald trump spoke at the conservative values voters summit in washington fritd. and trump took aim at the immigration policies of a republican rival. that didn't go over well with the crowd. >> you have this clown marco rubio. i've been so nice to him. [ crowd boos ] i've been so nice to him. i've been so nice. but then no he's been in favor
7:16 am
of immigration. and he has been. >> donald trump can dish it out as he attacks other republican candidates but can he also take criticism? >> why so thin skinned? >> i don't like lies. i don't mind a bad story. if you did a bad story on me for 60 minutes, if it were a fair story, i wouldn't be thin skinned at all. you know, some of the media is among the worst people i've ever met. and i mean a good percentage is really a terrible group of people. they write lies. they write false stories. they know they're false. it makes so difference. and frankly i -- i don't call it thin skinned. i'm angry. >> but a reporter asked you couple of hard questions at the first debate and the whole week after that it's war on that reporter. >> well i don't think that was a fair question. >> an impression is created though that you like to dish it out but you can't take a punch. >> i oh i think i can take it. i can take it if it's fair.
7:17 am
again if people say things that are false, which happens a lot with me. if people say things that are false, i will fight, like, harder than anybody. if i do something wrong -- and that happens -- and they write a fair story that i did something wrong. there is nothing to fight about. . i'm a very honorable guy. i don't like lies. >> tomorrow evening on 60 minutes, donald trump talks about taxes, immigration and replacing obamacare. and russian president vladimir putin sits down with charlie rhodes. another development that could effect the 2016 presidential race, the obama administration said it found a chain of e-mails that hillary clinton failed to turn over to the state department. messages she exchanged with general david pa trayis. >> cheenz president xi jinping
7:18 am
travels to new york today. last night xi and his wife were honored at an elaborate dinner at the white house. mr. obama offered a toast celebrating the two countries working together. like fingers on the same hand. >> there will be times when our interests entirely overlap. but i think will be sustained is the friendship between our peoples. the foundation of the tides between our nations. [ applause ] >> first lady michelle obama also had something to say last night. in a fashion statement she wore a black off the shoulder dress designed by vera wang, a chinese-american. and the first lady of china is also a fashion icon. look at both of them standing there. a security breech and lockdown is over at sea-tac

7:32 am
the group home and she was upset. and they treated her poorly and badly and would lock her in a room every time she was bad. >> you know the whole time that if you say the wrong thing she might just let go. >> yeah. definitly. >> it took time, patience and trust. >> it was back and forth banter with me and her. can i come closer to you. can i talk to you closer. can i pull you over the ledge so we can talk in a safer environment. it was that back-to-back conversation that i felt comfortable enough to actually lean over and get her. the girl did allow him to rescue her. >> i grabbed held of her arm and wrapped it around my neck and bear hugged her and dragged her over. >> did she seem happy that you did that. >> she didn't seem happy but she was sad and just started breaking down even more. >> by the time paramedics arrived officer perez's job was done, but not forgotten. >> what goes through your mind when you look at that bridge

7:37 am
time for our morning rounds with cbs news contributors, dr. holly phillips and doctor tara nurulla in new york. wee women with complications during pregnancy may be at greater risk of heart disease later in life. >> madimagine if we had a cryst ball that could really clue us in into number one kill over women, cardiovascular disease. now we're beginning to understand the complications of the pregnancy may be a warning signal. pregnancy is almost like a stress test so in this study
7:38 am
they looked at 15,000 women. and found the complications of pregnancy, things like pree champsia, high pressure that develops or pre term delivery can raise the risk anywhere from 1.6 to 4 times. when they happen in combination. so you have prekpooisi preexist blood pressure and. and they also identify two new risk factors. one would be high sugar in the urine or. >> i don't know what to do with that information though. it is not like you can stop any of those complications in your pregnancy. >> i think when we put this in context. instead of being frightening it really should be seen as the great opportunity. a great opportunity for women at a very young age to know if they are at an increased risk of
7:39 am
heart disease. and also for doctors sort of in the primary care sector. as a general internist like me or o.bgyn. ob giens. pregnancy is a stress test but maybe we should get you a treadmill stress test. and i think we have a very receptive audience. particularly in women who have just given birth. you want to be in best health you can to raise your children. so i think this is a great opportunity. >> next up a new report for the centers for disease control find older american whose work are healthier than those who are unemployed or retired. we've heard studies like this before but this is new in some ways. >> right. one of the things that makes this really impactful is just that it's such a humge amount o information. data from 85,000 people over the age of 65 and really looked at
7:40 am
three criterion. one was if they had any physical limitations. the next was how they felt about their own health. and then if they had any sort of long-term health complications. across the board people who were either retired or unemployed reported poorer health outcomes than people who were still working. and that is even after you accounted for other risk factors like smoking or obesity. now the study couldn't show whether or not it was retirement that caused poor health or whether because you had poor health you retired. but still this link is there and it is incredibly important. >> so we don't know. people i think actually it is the mind it is staying active. but do we know what really? >> we don't know for sure. older americans, one thing they bring up is being mentally engaged and having a purpose to your life. there is no doubt that plays into the physical health. some of the other factors that
7:41 am
might pray in. social support when you continue to work. income. comprehensive healthcare benefits. and then just this idea that you are physically active for every day of your lifelong periods of time. you are getting up, going to work. you are active. >> i also think of political im implications. we hear should people be forced to retire at the certain age? and now we know it is not so great for the workplace. all right a panel of experts with the north american menopause society released new recommendations for treating hot flashes without the use of hormones. about 75% '5"% of u.s. women ha menopausal hot flashes with 50 to 80% trying non hormonal therapies. what treatments seem to be the most effective. >> now that hormone replacement is no longer just standard of care for women having hot flashes we see women trying anything, everything, whatever
7:42 am
they can get their hands on. so this expert panel out some pretty clear guidelines about what the data shows works. two things shown to be very effective. one is cognitive behavioral therapy. the other --. support them and haven't been proven to work. those would be cooling techniqueses. it's packs. fans. >> aa violence voidance of trig. exercise and yoga. over the counter herbals. ji gin seng and omegas. >> are there downsides to hormone therapy.
7:43 am
>> there are. >> used to be you hormone therapy. now we know that for some women it can increase the risk of breast and ovarian cancer, heart disease, stroke and o a number of other risk factors. there is still a small group of women for whom benefits out weigh the risks. but it is done on an individual level. finally good news for those of us who have trouble sitting still on the job. a new study from british researchers finds a little workplace fidgeting may be good for your health. tapping your feet at the desk help to counteract the harmful effects of sitting too long during a workday. start tapping. >> great news for my six-year-old. although she's not employed. she fidgets. >> doctors, thank you both so much. up next an american

after six months aboard the international space station, nasa astronaut scott kelly and a russian cosmonaut have reached the halfway point of their mission. they are spending a full year in orbit to learn about the physical and mental effects of long-term someplapace flight, a as a journey to mars. titled a year in space. >> i do sometimes dream of being in space. i'll wake up and tell amiko hey i had this dream and i was on
7:48 am
the space station. and sometimes she's been with me. she's been with me in i dreams. my kids have. but while up there most of humanity is 250 miles below you. if anything goes wrong on earth you are not going home. >> time editor, jeffrey kluger. this looks amazing. >> extraordinary experience. time has gotten the kind of access that in 37 years of covering space i've never been able to enjoy before. we've been behind the scenes at the russian space agency. we've been where the rocket was launched. we've been at the training center. we've been at the neutral buoyancy lab. >> if the average trip is about six months, why did you want to see what would happen at the year mark? >> it is a critical juncture, because if human beings are ever going to make trips to mars we
7:49 am
have to determine if the human body can function for so long in space. so scott kelly and micha are up there running this real time experience. and in scott's case there is a serendipitously perfect control study. because his identical twin brother mark a retired astronaut is running the same test on earth so two identical templates and two environments and you learn an enormous amount. >> what are you hoping to learn by comparing the two. >> so much happens when to the body when you take off the function of gravity. the heart can grow slack. muscles can grow weak. bones decalcify. fluid shifts upward at the right of about two liters increasing pressure on the skull. the telomeres burn down faster so scott may actually age a bit
7:50 am
faster. but he'll get 3% taller without gravity. >> unbelievable. so in the sixth months has anything changed when one twin and -- >> well you don't know yet. what they are doing though is comparing all the things. they are comparing what goes on in the gut and comparing immune functions as well. scott just recently self administered a flu vasquez ccin space. >> what other experiments are they doing jeffrey? >> well they are doing something with in order to see if you can bring the fluid out of the head, they are wearing low -- reverse pressure inflatable pants. a little like clown pants to pull the fluid down. mark also got before he went up two tiny blue dot tattoos which will always make it easy for him to determine where to hut put
7:51 am
his sonogram probes. >> do you think any of these experiments could also benefit humans on earth. >> i do. and one of the space station mottos is off the earth for the earth. and i think that is a very real thing. this isn't just a feel-good slogan. the more you learn about how the human body operates when you take off the x factor of gravity the more you can learn basic science about aging, about cardiovascular health, about fitness and cognition. it is one of the reasons john glenn at age 78 went back into space in 1998. because a lot of the symptom s space travel parallel the symptoms of aging. >> fascinating. six months left. jeffrey, thank you so o much. >> thank you. >> come aupg television first. 55 years ago we look at the kennedy/nixon debate that changed american political campaigns forever. you are watching "cbs this morning saturday."

8:04 am
[ inaudible ] we spend 80 billion a year on prisons. those are the statistics. what the president wanted to do is put a spotlight on the people and the effect the current criminal justice system is having on the lives of not just those who are incarcerated by the families and this film does an outstanding job telling that story. we have to break the cycle of poverty and raise our children in ways where they see an opportunity to grow up and be viable citizens and be a part of a community that is self sufficient and responsible and abiding by the law. and i think this film shows how that is impossible with our current system. >> valorie, the president points to non violent drug offenses as a major contributor to the prison problem. i think it is nearly half of the federal prison population is in for drug offenses. i know there is also support for this on the right. the koch brothers for example have been very active in trying to get prison reform. so is there enough bipartisan support to get some change here? >> anthony, yes.
8:05 am
absolutely. we feel very confident right now that there is support on both sides of the aisle in the house and senate to move forward this year on reasonable criminal justice reform. and you are right. we have all of these people who were accused of non violent drug offenses who were incarcerated. why don't we get them drug treatment? why don't we rehabilitate them? why don't we allow them to have jobs and be responsible members of society? and we do are this great conversation with the koch brothers all the way to cory booker, former mayor of new york who's seen the effects on the community. and this films weaves it all together in a very very real way. >> it really becaudoes because hear personal stories from the inmates and they get a sense they feel there is an institutional bias. and one inmate even says the system is designed for you to
8:06 am
fail. what needs to change to change the system. >> we have do change the system. and as the president said earlier this summer, we have to look at what we're doing in our community to provide everything from early childhood education to reforming our suspension and expulsion so we keep our children in the classroom. we know that if they are expelled there is a school to prison pipeline that is inevitable when they are on the streets. we have to look at our sentencing system and look at the mandatory minimums where judges don't have the flexibility to look at the circumstances of particular case and allow somebody an alternative to incarceration. and then we really have to reform the entire system. one of the more powerful moments in the movie was when the president said how many of you pled out to the people that he was meeting with? a handful of inmates and they all said they did. which meant that may made a deal. because they didn't have confidence that if they want to trial it would be fair. and in fact one of them tells a story about how he was in prison
8:07 am
at the time that the crime he was accused of took place. so he couldn't possibly have done it. and the president said well why did you make a deal? because the president said they had three witnesses that said i was there. and the president said you were in prison. and he said i didn't think the system would work for me. >> the speaker of the house announced he would be resigning yesterday. how is boehner's resignation likely to change the relationship with republicans. >> the speaker is a good man and the president looks forward to working with his successor. the speaker will still be there another month. and after the change in leadership we'll work with his successor. >> last night there was also a great state dinner. we saw the beautiful images of the first lady ner dress earlier. >> she looked zblorjs she did. what is the relationship as you see it right now between the united states and china. >> well they are the two largest economies in the world.
