beautifush good morning, america. coming to america, the pope getting ready for his historic visit to the u.s. the first pontiff ever to address congress, throngs of the faithful said to nation's capital to greet pope francis. walkout. the big shake-up in the republican race. former front-runner scott walker drops out calling on the gop to topple trump and ben carson walks back his comments about muslims with calls for him to drop out too. abc news exclusive. that kentucky county clerk at the center of a firestorm in her first one-on-one interview. >> i've been called hitler. i've been called hypocrite. i've been called a homophobe. >> the comments kim davis says hurt her most. why she says she'll never quit her job only on "gma" this morning. home run on hometown night

bindi rocking to the top spot. tamar hot on her heels and chaka khan the first booted and she's happy to be going home. shut up and dance with me we do say good morning, america. and chaka, in your words, i feel for you. man, she gave it her all with keo but she is the first to leave the dance floor and another couple will go home tonight. >> yeah, they are wasting no time in getting right to it on "dancing with the stars." also this morning, big exclusive right here, kim davis, that kentucky county clerk, you see her there with paula faris, her first interview since all that controversy since her jailing. we'll have that coming up. right now hours away from pope francis arriving here on his historic visit to america. he lands in washington this afternoon arriving from cuba. and abc's terry moran is there with the pope right now as he wraps up an emotional visit. good morning, terry.

>> reporter: good morning, george. these are pope francis' last few hours here in cuba. it's been an incredible trip. the people here greeting the first latin-american pope almost as a brother, and yet he heads off to america where he's expected to stir up some controversy on inequality and global climate change, but here in cuba, francis has carefully avoided creating any controversy. overnight, a classic pope francis moment. at the end of a long day no limousine for him or even a private car, instead, a mini bus to take him to the seminary where he spent the night. all part of this pope's simple style like his visit last night to cuba's most sacred shrine. he lit a candle offered flowers just as ordinary cubans have done before this tiny statue for 400 years. everywhere he goes in cuba francis reaches out on their

terms in their language like when he celebrated mass in holguin and challenged cubans and their government which still jails people for being counter revolutionary traitors. do you believe it's possible that a traitor can become a friend, he asks. a gentle rebuke but no more. and no meeting with any cuban dissidents even as he paid a cordial visit to fidel castro who built the repressive regime here. and francis has faced criticism here and in the united states over those matters but those who are close to him say this is not a pope who is trying to inspire political change. he's after something else, they say, he's breaching the gospel, robin. >> all right, terry, thank you. the pope arrives in washington this afternoon for his three-city whirlwind u.s. tour which also includes new york and philadelphia. while here, francis, pope

make a total of 24 public appearances including at the national mall, central park and independence hall. abc's reagan cecilia is in washington this morning where they have rolled out the red carpet. good morning, cecilia. >> reporter: good morning, robin. not only is that red carpet out there are a lot of barricades all over the city too. this is going to be a historic visit filled with pomp and circumstance but the very first thing pope francis will see when he arrives later today at andrews air force base is the president and the first family, this is a rare gesture for a president to show up to an airplane afforded to very few dignitary, the highlights for washington, d.c., of course, that white house visit, 15,000 people expected at the white house lawn and, of course, that historic first ever papal address to congress. now, congress has been warned, there are rules about these thing, what you won't see this time around like you do at the state of the union, those fist bumps, handshakes. this is the house where the pope

is going to be spending his evenings here in d.c. right across from the vice president's mansion. i know it's hard to believe i haven't been invited inside. it's supposed to be told much lovier than the digs where pope francis stays back in the vatican. >> i'm sure your invitation was lost in the mail, cecilia, thank you. abc news has live coverage of pope francis all week long beginning with his arrival in d.c. at approximately 4:00 p.m. eastern time this afternoon and, george, i know you're heading there right after "gma." >> he lands at andrews air force base. "your voice, your vote" and a big shake-up. wisconsin governor scott walker drops out and calls on republicans to stop donald trump as ben carson defies calls to drop out for his comments about muslims and abc's tom llamas is on the campaign trail with him in sharonville, ohio. >> reporter: the walker campaign lasting just 71 day, one of the shortest in recent memories, i was actually speaking with donald trump over the phone when

couldn't believe it like many others and couldn't believe it happened this early but this morning donald trump is taking the high road, not attacking walker even though walker says trump needs to be beat. this morning, a one-time front-runner dropping out of the gop race for president. >> i will suspend my campaign immediately. >> reporter: sources say a campaign cash crunch forced wisconsin governor scott walker to call it quits, walker slamming current republican front-runner donald trump on his way out. >> i encourage other republican presidential candidates to consider doing the same so that the voters can focus on a limited number of candidates who can offer a positive, conservative alternative to the current front-runner. >> i spoke with trump about the narrowing field while walker was resigning. >> well, i'm surprised but i think he did the right thing and i think you have others that should drop out. because if you look at some of

the numbers where there are zero or 1%. >> reporter: some calling for ben carson to drop out after he said this. >> i would not advocate we put a muslim in charge of this nation. i absolutely would not agree with that. >> reporter: but overnight changing his tune saying he meant radical islamist, not moderate muslims. >> i don't care what religion or faith someone belongs to, if they're willing to subjugate that the american way and to our constitution, then i have no problem with it. >> reporter: carly fiorina now in second place according to the latest national poll coming out strong on this topic late last night. >> well, i have think that's wrong, whether it's a person of christian faith or jewish faith or muslim faith or other faith, i think faith gives us humility and i think that's important. >> reporter: dr. ben carson says his comments were not that controversial. the reason why, right after he said them on sunday morning, his facebook page went up by more than 100,000 likes. george. >> one piece of evidence.

okay, tom, thanks very much. let's talk about it with matthew dowd. scott walker says he ran out of money but there were reasons he ran out of money. >> this is the first number one seed to get kicked out in homage to the pope like germany losing in the group stage in the world cup. it tells us two things, first a good candidate on paper doesn't always meet's at well. if you're a .300 hitter in the minor doesn't mean you can hit a curveball in the show. how much the debates matter. they took walker in double digits to an asterisk. carly fiorina who wasn't in the main event in the top three and jeb bush was number one and two and now number five. >> who is helped most by this? >> you can see who the vultures picking over the dead carcass of scott walker who is taking contributors -- jeb bush, ted cruz and keep an eye on kasich, he is the last midwesterner in

the race, the midwestern states are winner take all when we get towards the end of the primary and he could make a play in iowa. >> carly fiorina had a light moment on "the tonight show." my name is snick and i'm lazy please don't take a walk with me i'd rather stay right here instead i want to lie back down in my nice warm bed my name is sick and you're going to have to carry me >> different side of her and we have two rays in the republican party. >> you have to watch these kind of things. you want to be human but you don't want to look like you're embarrassing yourself. outsiders versus insiders, fiorina, trump and the insiders who battle over that and it will be an outside/inside race. >> now to a mystery in the sky. an american airlines flight from north carolina to connecticut forced to make an emergency landing last night after something caused the windshield

to crack. abc's david kerley is in washington with the latest. good morning, david. >> reporter: it is a big question this morning. how did a jet's windshield crack, really shatter in flight when it didn't hit birds, didn't fly through weather. the american airlines flight was headed to connecticut south of philly and the first officer sees this crack in front of him and windshield shattering on the a319 and asked for an emergency landing in filly. here's what they told air traffic control. >> ah, yeah, the right windshield is completely shattered. >> they landed safely, the 114 passengers got on another jet to continue their flight. we have seen in the past what hail can -- and birds can do to windshields. remember those pictures from denver hail shattering both sides but american says weather and birds were not a factor last night so they will be looking for other causes, was it a defect, something else? but because philly was a hub the windshield was replaced overnight and that jet will be back in service today.

>> hopefully they'll find out what happened. all right, david, thank you. we turn to an unprecedented punishment for a corporate executive. stewart parnell sentenced to 28 years in prison for knowingly soing tainted peanut butter that caused nine deaths. steve osunsami. >> reporter: he's 61 years old so they're calling this a virtual life sentence. this morning, a first of its kind decision in a loud and clear message about safety to america's food industry. >> the food safety lost out to greed. >> reporter: stewart parnell is in an albany, georgia, jail cell, a federal judge sentenced him to 28 years monday after one of his roasting plants was blamed for a deadly outbreak of samantha. 9 died and 714 got sick and at trial prosecutors shared e mails where they say parnell pushed

saying, just ship it. i cannot afford to lose another customer. gab bring yell gabrielle meunier was one of them. >> it should never have happened to begin with. >> reporter: they're holding executives and even farmers responsible. two egg executives got sentences after a 2010 salmonella outbreak. last year two cantaloupe farmers were sensed for a listeria outbreak but parnell's sentence is the stiffest punishment the industry has ever seen. >> my mother surely beat cancer and died from eating peanut butter. today was a victory. it was justice for her and other families who needlessly suffered and ate food that they believed to be properly processed. >> reporter: parnell isn't the

only executive at his company facing real time. his brother was sentenced to 20 year, another executive at the company was sentenced to five. robin. >> all right, steve, those comments from the victims' families. my goodness. flash flooding in the southwest and powerful storms closing roads and knocking out power and ginger, more rain in the forecast. >> yes and the flash flood watches still on for at least a few more hours. from rio rico, arizona, washes over the roads. do not drive through that. up to 4.6 inches of rain. most of it just outside tucson washing over the roads closing several of them and causing several accidents so, again, two pockets of flash flood watches in new mexico and southern california. these actually go through this evening so we'll watch that. on the backlash of that low and all the moisture pools up into the plains so the next spot we'll watch for efianayi rain in kansas and nebraska. a whole lot more coming up. >> good to have you back and now amy has the other top stories

starting with the rising cost of prescription drugs. >> that's right. hillary clinton wants to cap prescription drug prices for some patients at $250 per month. word of that plan sent biotech and drug stocks plunging. it comes amid growing outrage over a 5,000% increase in the price of a drug used by cancer and aids patients. clinton calls that price gouging. a texas businesswoman under arrest in china accused of spying. sandy phan-gillis was part of a delegation visiting china. her husband calling the charges ridiculous and wants president obama to raise the case when china's president visits washington this week. in california, a navy jet crashed into this field near fresno. you can see there the smoke rising from the site. the pilot thankfully ejected just moments earlier and is okay this morning. the $30 million jet, though, is a total loss. a violent crash at this

watch as the car careens out of control, slamming into a fence, launching into the air and rolling at least half a dozen times. somehow miraculously that driver was able to walk away from the site. apple is reportedly speeding up plans to build an electric car. we do not know what it will look like yet but the internet is full of potential designs like that one. "the wall street journal" says it could go on sale in 2019. and finally, what's 468 feet long and costs more than $400 million? answer, a russian billionaire's new record-breaking super yacht. it is the world's largest sailing ship, the masts climb 300 feet into the sky. it features eight floors. eight floor, a pool, helicopter pad and an underwater observation deck. the windows were even made of bombproof glass and can host 20 people -- that's it? wow. but you need 54 crew members to

get this baby on the water of the you know what they say about the two best days of a boat owner's life, the day you buy the boat and the day you sell the boat. is that true for this one? >> i don't know about this one. >> you need a lot of sam pain to get that started. >> only 20 people for 400 million bucks. okay, amy, thanks very much. a major scandal at volkswagen. what it could mean for you in just 30 seconds. volkswagen is bracing for abouts in fines, possible criminal charges for its

executives as the company apologized for rigging 11 million cars to help it beat emission tests. abc's t.j. holmes and, t.j., volkswagen also facing millions of angry customers >> that's no reason for us to mince words. volkswagen cheated and got caught and millions of people have been putting out a much bigger carbon footprint than they were led to believe. overnight volkswagen throwing a huge party to celebrate their new line of passats including this energetic performance by lenny kravitz. but the other headline at the event a huge company mea culpa. >> we crewed up. >> reporter: michael horn acknowledging the company knowingly sold 500,000 diesel-powered cars in america which intentionally faked emissions tests. customers in their cars emitting as much as 40 times the legal pollution limit. >> so that's the key about this. our company was dishonest. >> reporter: now the german

automaker face billions in fines while their executives could face criminal charges. they admitted they put this software programs to go to a cleaner mode. a fact not lost on its loyal fan base thinking they were environment environmentally friendly. >> regardless of how much they have fudged by, it's the fact that they lied in the first place because that's going to give me concern. >> reporter: volkswagen halted all u.s. sales of the diesel cars and pledged to cooperate with regulators. still the show went on last night, the company hoping to focus on its future rather than its admitted deception of the past. >> i know, this is not like recalls we've seen in the past where somebody made a mistake. this he did this on purpose. 11 million cars worldwide and set aside $7 billion to deal with fines and people might want their cars back. you're just putting it out.

>> all right, t.j. thanks. all right. ahead this morning, an abc news exclusive, one-on-one with embattled kentucky clerk kim davis speaking out about the backlash she's faced for refusing to issue same-sex marriage licenses. >> what probably hurts me the worst that my god does not love me.re drinking? it's trop50. it's fine. it tastes delicious and has 50% less calories. with this taste? no way. give me fifty squats. but... it can't taste this good... read the label. ...and have 50% less calories? exactly, now you drop... and give me the 50. trop50.

screaming and cussing me. >> reporter: she said she never expected to be a household name when she started denying marriage licenses at her county clerk office. >> i'm just a normal person that has been touched by the grace of god and his mercy and i haven't always been a good person, paula. when i didn't live for god i didn't live for him. i was living for the devil. >> you've been married four times. >> uh-huh. >> you had children in adulteress relationships. people are calling a hypocrite. are you? >> no. i'm forgiven. washed clean. >> reporter: and so 4 1/2 years ago when davis found god she said she could not separate

that a marriage is only between a man and a woman. davis who was elected in november as a democrat refuses to obey the opinion of the supreme court that sent her to jail for contempt. who do you consider your boss, god, your con hit wents or the federal government? >> well, my constituents elected me. but the main authority that rules my life is the lord. >> reporter: so god, the authority, trumps all authority in your mind. >> yes. >> so why would you want to remain in this position? >> i'm good at my job. i have friends who are gay and lesbians. they know where i stand and we don't agree on this issue and we're okay because we respect each other. >> so you would deny your friends who are in gay relationships, you would deny them a marriage license, as well? >> i did. i can't put my name on a license that doesn't represent what god

ordained marriage to be. >> reporter: and there are thousands of others who feel the same way. she's received encouragement from all over the world. numerous handwritten note, a handmade prayer shawl and crosses but the hate mail came too. very vulgar. >> i've been called hitler. i've been called hypocrite. i've been called a homophobe. what probably hurts me the worst worst, that my god does not love me or that my god is not happy with me, that i am a hypocrite of a christian. >> reporter: davis was released from jail after being behind bars six days greeting the public in an emotional rally getting the attention of presidential hopeful mike huckabee. now back at work she's still refusing to put her name on any marriage licenses forcing her

deputies like brian mason to take over those duties. now brian is signing all of the marriage licenses. your name is not on those licenses. in your mind are they till valid? >> they're not valid in god's eyes for one and, you know, i think the authority i have given no authority to write a marriage license. they did not have my permission or my authorization. >> reporter: one of the voters who finally received a marriage license said that he finally felt human. that was a direct quote. he was in tears. people will question why is your moral conscience, kim, more than than someone else's happiness. >> i don't think dignity is guaranteed in the constitution but something you find within yourself. i feel really sad that someone could be so unhappy with themselves as a person that they did not feel dignified as a human being until they got a piece of paper. i mean, there's just so much more to life than that.

>> and this is really just the beginning for many clerks across the country. i'm told by davis' counsel clerks in over five states are also seeking exemptions like kim davis they do not want their names on these marriage licenses. >> she is prepared to go back to jail. >> she said she is and digging her heels in. >> thanks very much. fascinating stuff. you have a lot more on "the view." >> i'm sure it will be a lively discussion on "the view." >> it will be. now the investigation into a huge explosion that leveled one texas home and damaged several others. two people are still in the hospital this morning. but somehow no one thankfully was killed. abc's ryan owens has that story for us. >> reporter: some residents of this north texas neighborhood still unable to return home this morning, evacuated after a mass massive explosion. >> we'll send a full response to this location. we hear the explosion and felt it. >> reporter: the blast just

sunburn but we often search for sensitive information that we don't want people to know about and those searches and your personal info could be up for sale. kathy had no idea a symptom internet search would lead to this. >> it's just not right. >> reporter: "gma investigates." able to find kathy's name on a marketing list after she says she simply used her computer to search heart disease. >> it's scary that my personal information is that accessible. >> reporter: on that list not only her name but her address, home value and income range. it even categorized her as a heart disease sufferer. so you have heart disease. do people have a right to know that? >> they don't have a right to know anything about my personal life. >> reporter: how does this happen? for some medical websites companies collect data from consumer searches and sometimes sell it to businesses including drug companies. "gma investigates" finding a site that sells lists with

>> reporter: shows us by looking at two, mayo clinic and webmd, first up mayo clinic. here he finds six websites pulling consumers' search information, on webmd he finds more than 28 sites pulling info. does it get the address of your computer? >> yeah, your ip address. >> reporter: while some may only be using your search information to send you those targeted pop-up ads others go further and collect your personal info and sell it. mayo clinic tells us it partners with select third parties to provide advertising content relevant to their subject interests. our contracts do not allow them to collect personally identifiable information. webmd tells us the privacy policy on webmd.com describes very clearly how we may collect data about our users' online browsing. the sites we checked have similar policies but consumers rarely read them. this really bothers you? >> yes, it does. >> as well it should. highly personal information.

>> ride the privacy statement so you know what information they'll be collecting and a couple software programs you can load. one is called ghostery and they can shut it off but those don't work well on mobile devices like phones and tablets so if you're searching personalal information use a laptop or desktop computer. >> okay, so ghostery is one way to shut it down a little bit. >> it's scary, though. what's out there and what they're sharing. >> you were saying if they're looking at yours they'll think you have everything. >> exactly. i know. i know. i'm constantly searching. unbelievable. >> thank you so much, rich. dr. b. will take your questions on twitter throughout the morning. tweet aim @drrichardbesser and he will have the answers. coming up do you have a joke for the pope? jesse is in the social square with more. >> that's right, lara. all part of a big campaign to make the pope laugh. bill murray even has a joke and

>> that it was anne that was the intern. >> no, robert de niro plays the intern in this movie. it's a really great, great film and so proud to be a little part of it and it opens this friday which is very exciting. >> yeah, well, i was going to say that at the end but let's plug it, beginning, middle and end. what was it like working with the great robert de niro? was there that sense of nervousness. >> oh, yeah, no, that never went away. it literally never went away. he could not be nicer, could not be friendlier and make himself for accessible, very generous. that's him right now. >> yes, he's waiting for you. >> he's coming to pick me up. >> yeah. >> one second. you know what i never got to the part that i never got to him with him, he would say call me bob and i can't. >> i so would have. >> i have to call you mr. de niro. >> there is a respect thing. can we show a clip? >> i would love to show a clip. >> you want to dea little bit?
