of the american auto industry. >> he is visiting factories of two automakers that took government bailouts. >> abc white house reporter karen traverse is in washington this morning with a preview. good morning, karen. >> good morning. >> what exactly is the reason behind the president's trip to detroit today? >> consider this a victory lap for president obama. he is going to the heart of the american auto industry to tout the fact that his policies brought it back from the brink of collapse. now, the white house has made it clear that they knew that this bailout was not popular last year, but they said it was a difficult decision but it was necessary. the president obama's going to go to a gm plant where they are making that new chevy volt, which is a rechargeable electric car. he's also going to go to a chrysler factory where they are adding a second shift and they've created over 1,000 new jobs. so this is president obama really making that push between now and the election to say, look, our policies worked, keep us in office. >> you know, karen, we all watched this sort of in slow motion at times it felt, between the bankruptcies and the management changes. a lot of people questioning, did this plan really work? and will the government get any of the money that we've put into these companies back? >> analysts say that it in fact did work. there is not much disagreement about whether or not the bailout actually was able to pull the auto industry back fm now, of courss wi illay hhuld e, thyer should not en u liberally as it was last year. but it's really interesting, if you look at the sti the leadup to the brupt and chrysler, auto industry in general, lost over 300,000 jobs. since then it's added 50,000 jobs. the white house is saying, look, there are tangible results, they are creating jobs, this worked. as for getting back that $80 billion of taxpayer money, said yesterday on "the view" the taxpayer money will all be recouped. what he did not say is it's not going to be all $80 billion, it's going to be the $60 billion his administration lent out. they're not going to go after the $25 billion that the bush administration did. so a little bit of a technicality there. but theite ting that the taxpayer money will be tough task today. e hnd tic y th has the nation's second-h unemploymtrat >> and they're going to say it analysts have said that over 1 million jobs cod han lost if the bailoot g so that is a messagtat o hpres obama today. it's something the white house s beayinek. look, w thinud hen a so that is something the president is going away at. but that doesn't do muc for peole tt arll knot tht address the c try and do something to >> you certainly hear peo talk about detroit and say it has really about i tansiey'v after detroit, a lot of people are still asking, even though we've heard h sayt headed to the weddingthe presnt baing could he be here for chelsea clinton's wedding. >> people want him to go for some reason to create a story. president obama said yesterday again on "the view," he wasn't invited, in fact, that invitation never got the president said understand, this is all chelsea clin about him, it's not about the guest list. and he understands that they want to make this about her day. of course, president obama it's toenug having one president there, wit for preintoavin two would be to he also said the ladies of "the view," when it comes time for my dau look for your in >> i'm sure he'll send a nice gift. white house reporter karen traverse, thanks > the always a rare opportunity that we get news when it

this morning. ellen degeneres said no thank you. she said one season is basically enough for her. my work schedule just became more than i bargained for. now, fox is not commenting on the replacements or cara or degeneres. she said, i got to place in my career where i love nurturing young talent. she said it was hard for her to judge people. >> she didn't want to hurt people's feelings by saying, you know what, you're not that good. she made a sensitive decision. >> this continues to evolve. maybe a fifth judge or fourth judge. stay tuned. remember the show "roseanne" a few years ago? the daughter who played darlene on the show, sarah gilbert, she was at the television critics association meeting a while ago and came out of the closet and said, hey, you know what i'm a lesbian, i'm

it really is impressive. he says he got from this to the new drew carey that you're about to see right -- wait for it, it's coming. >> there we go. >> how did he lose all this weight? the old-fashioned way. dieting and a rigorous workout routine. he said, i like being skinny, i was sick of being fat on camera. he's 52 years old. he said he'd cheat a couple of times but basically no carbs, not a cracker, no bread, no pizza, nothing. 45 minutes of cardio. at least 45 i should say. he went from a size 44 pant to a size 33, 34. he's now hoping to be a size 32. and this i thought was classy. he said, one of my hopes is that i can look as great as 86 as my predecessor, bob barker. he also has a fiance, he wants to watch the fiance's son grow up. >> concerning bob barker said

things. art and cats. >> that's right. cats. 60 felines there and a staff that takes care of them. you could say it's the purr-fect life. i didn't write that. alex marquardt reports from st. petersburg. >> thanks, willis. >> reporter: the museum sits on the banks of st. petersburg's neva river. its walls filled with priceless masterpieces. so much art you could roam the halls for days and still not see it all. but out of sight to the millions of tourists who come here are the residents who have called this place home for more than 200 years. hanging out in the alleyways. sleeping by drainpipes. lounging in the grass. these are the hermitage cats. around 60 in all. strays taken in and cared for by the museum. cats first arrived here in 1774, brought in by the russian imperial family to rid the palace of rats. today the tradition of cats living here continues, and is thriving. down in the basement is cat headquarters where morina runs the show. she's in charge of keeping them healthy and keeping them in line. >> this is nura. this white one is her brother lupa. they're about 7 months old, brought here two weeks ago. they're not feeling so hot so they're being nursed back to health in here. when they're feeling better they'll be released and allowed to roam around the museum's grounds. outside the cattery. he's lived at the museum for eight years. he's very happy with his life, she says, before he attacks her arm. all the cats appear happy and show their appreciation. except for the gallery they pretty much have the run of the place. wandering through the maze-like basement. milling around outside in the warm summer weather. some don't want to be bothered. others yearn for affection. like any shelter the goal here is to get these cats adopted. but each year, only 10 to 15 leave. the others are happy to stick around, and thanks to donations from the staff and charities, the hermitage cats are here to stay. alex marquardt, abc news, st. petersburg. >> was it a purr-fect story? >> yes.wo anxious arizona. anxious ariz anxious arizona. the emotional rallies on the streets and the big legal moves in court. then, shocking crime. the eight babies murdered and the mother who's accused. and, dramatic robert duvall. >> what do you think? >> i wouldn't know you, sir. >> maybe the devil won't either. >> the hollywood veteran's latest role. it's friday, july 30th. >> from abc news, this is "world news now." >> hollywood favorite there for sure. >> and the movie is called "get low." you said your girlfriend saw it? >> wants to see it. >> oh, okay. >> looks pretty good. bull murray's in it, too. good morning, everybody. happy friday. i'm rob nelson. >> i'm vinita nair. action on arizona's new immigration law moves forward on two fronts. in the courtroom and on the streets. >> there were protests nationwide against the law, as well as dozens of arrests. and in a federal courtroom, state lawyers are demanding a ruling. brad wheelis reports. >> go home! go home! >> reporter: the state of arizona thursday asked an appeals court to lift a judge's order blocking most of senate bill 1070's disputed conditions, like giving police the power to stop suspected illegal immigrants and demand to see their papers. >> they need to step up, the feds do, and do the job that they have the responsibility to do. >> reporter: tensions over thursday's law inflamed debate and sent protesters to the streets in phoenix. >> united we'll never be defeated! >> reporter: and in los angeles -- >> reporter: back in arizona it was -- >> business as usual. >> reporter: for maricopa county sheriff joe arpaio, as well as illegal immigrants. arpaio sent deputies through immigrant neighborhoods, stopping people and checking their immigration status. >> it doesn't matter what the ruling is by the federal judge. we're going to do it anyway. >> reporter: while scores of illegal day laborers touted for work openly in the city. >> there's no police around here. >> reporter: a u.s. district court judge agreed with the obama administration that the arizona law was unconstitutional on its face. arizona filed an appeal to the ninth u.s. circuit court of appeals. the legal controversy over sb-1070 will likely be decided in the supreme court. brad wheelis, abc news. >> now the federal judge in that case has been getting threats because of her ruling. a u.s. marshal's spokesman says judge susan bolton received thousands of phone calls and e-mails. some of those oppose the ruling, he says in a perverted way. the marshal's office is investigating those threats. mexican troops have killed a top drug leader. ignacio "nacho" koren nell helped create the country's powerful methamphetamine business. he died in a gun fight with soldiers in an upscale neighborhood of guadalajara. the fbi offered a $5 million award for his capture because his operation was smuggling so many drugs here into the u.s. a new report on army stress paints a bleak picture of suicides, drug use, and crime among its soldiers. it also says warning signs that military men and women are in trouble exist. here's martha raddatz. >> reporter: the toll of the wars has never been made more clear. with an army sometimes unprepared for the devastating impact on the health of the troops. just look at these figures. one-third of soldiers are now taking prescription drugs. antidepressants. anxiety medications and pain pills. amphetamine use has doubled since 2006. sexual offenses have tripled since 2003. domestic abuse is up 177% in the past six years. and the most stunning, more soldiers died in 2009 from noncombat injuries than at war. with the vast majority of those from suicide, murder, or high-risk behavior like drunk driving. that is another startling revelation in the report. more than ever, the army is now attracting soldiers who are predisposed to risk-taking. the soldiers know full well they will face combat and they like the thrill it offers. as seen in this documentary. >> you can't get a better high. it's like crack, you know? once you've been shot at, you can't come down, you can't top that. >> what do you think it will be like in the civilian word? >> i have no idea. >> reporter: that has been where the majority of the problems arise. back home. nearly 80% of army suicides take place in the u.s. 36-year-old chris galloway shot himself six weeks after returning from afghanistan last year. >> something happened over there that totally changed him. >> reporter: the report blames the army for failing to detect signs of troubling behavior while it focuses on fighting two wars. >> it's time for the army to take a hard look at itself, to sit down and say, okay, what are those things that came lower in our priority list that we need to reinstitute, reinforce, and start doing to get at this problem? >> reporter: there are 250 recommendations in the report but the army has already implemented 240 of them with extensive anti-suicide campaigns and much more emphasis on soldier health. they say this will be a long, hard road but they have already made some progress. martha raddatz, abc news, washington. a south florida clerk targeted by a gunman said her face made the suspect leave the store empty-handed. surveillance video released by the broward county sheriff's department captured all the drama as it unfolded. it shows the robber crumbling after the christian clerk talked to him. she calls it divine intervention. that suspect, though, is still on the loose. on capitol hill the house ethics committee is preparing to try new york congressman charles rangel on ethics violations. the charges against the veteran democrat were made public after a two-year investigation. jonathan karl has the details. >> reporter: the ethics committee report on rangel is detailed and it is scathing. it accuses him of "a pattern of disregard for the laws of the united states and for the rules of the house." in addition to failing to pay his taxes, the committee accuses rangel of using his position on the powerful ways and means committee to raise money from big wall street corporations like aig, citigroup, and goldman sachs that had business before his committee. as for rangel he insisted he has never knowingly broken the rules of the house, violated them in any way. watching him, you could see that he understands the seriousness of these allegations. >> years ago, i survived a chinese attack in north korea. and as a result, i vowed that having survivored that, that i haven't had a bad day since. today, i have to reassess that statement. thank you. >> reporter: the rangel ordeal has already been a major embarrassment for democrats but it will become a much bigger one if the committee goes forward with plans for a big public trial of rangel that will take place in september. that's right in the middle of the campaign season. rangel's lawyers are trying to negotiate a way to avoid that by some kind of a settlement that would admit some wrongdoing. right now all systems are go for a public trial of charlie rangel before the ethics committee in september. jonathan karl, abc news, capitol hill. now here is a look at your friday forecast. stormy from omaha to kansas city with large hail, flash floods and isolated tornados. heavy rain from st. louis to fargo.

is a catch here. check out this new creation. it's chocolate-covered bacon on a stick. they're called muddy pigs and they're selling like hotcakes at the ohio state fair. >> that's a good name. if you're concerned about calories or cholesterol you might not want to indulge. but many visitors at the fair think that the salty, smoky bacon and the sweet, rich chocolate actually make a tasty combination. i looked it up because i was curious. one of those, one serving, is about 600 odd calories. >> i would so eat that. >> i tried -- have you tried chocolate and chips? >> yes. >> the salt and the sweet -- >> it works. >> it is good. >> oh, man. >> muddy pigs. we'll be right back. if you fight to sleep in the middle of the night why go one more round ? you don't need a rematch but a

confessing to the murder of eight of her own babies. a secret she kept for 20 years. >> the woman's family and the town they live in are in a state of shock. the bbc's christian fraser has more. >> reporter: she was known in the village as the doting grandmother. a care assistant married to a local counselor. but behind her public persona, dominique cottrez was hiding the most macabre secret. at a house the couple used to live in, new owners digging in the garden unearthed the skeletal remains of two newborn babies. it led police to the cottrez's current home less than a mime away. outside, the window boxes are blooming with carefully tended geraniums. inside, in the garage, six more babies, each of them wrapped in hermetically sealed bags. she's now facing eight counts of murder and a possible life sentence. but her husband, who told police he never knew his wife was even pregnant, has been released. >> translator: autopsy results so far show no sign violence to the children's bodies. the mother has admitted to deliberately smothering the children at home. >> reporter: it's a quiet but tight-knit village. home to barely 700 people. with pretty cottages that look out onto one another. the cottrezes have lived here for over 20 years, both active members the community. >> ordinary family, yes. simple. simple people. the man, i know the man. i'm very shook. because he's a good person, generous, nice. >> reporter: police suspect mrs. cottrez smothered the first of the eight children in 1989, the last in 2006. the local priest lit a candle for each of them. his prayers he said were also with the couple's two adult daughters and their husbands who must now come to terms with the horrors that unfolded in their own home. >> i don't know what you say after something like that. the fact that the husband didn't even know and is finding out now. unspeakable story. >> the thing that's so amazing to me is that she kept having babies. knowing that she obviously didn't want them. to continue to reproduce like that is just unbelievable. >> a lot of questions in that case for sure. coming back, we'll change to a lighter note. a hollywood veteran talks about his new role. wowowowowowowowowowowowowowowo w movie "get low." you could say he's a little bit type cast. >> peter traverse, "rolling stone" movie critic and host of abc news "popcorn" sat down to talk to him about his movies, past and present. >> what do you think? >> i wouldn't know you, sir. >> maybe the devil won't either. this just might work out. now where are the shoes? >> normally people don't wear shoes in a casket. >> what are you, about 10d? >> robert duvall, welcome to the show. >> thank you, sir. >> it is a pleasure. even before we talk about "get low," i have to say there are people who come on this show that have been in movies, but you kind of are movies. there is, there's a history -- >> i've been around. >> it's more than around. you could be around, but you know, starting with "boo radially, now it's an oprah book club selection. 50 years later. this is the new movie that you've done, which is extraordinary. >> yes. >> love this movie. >> thank you. >> it would be great that you just explained a little about what your character felix is wanting from bill murray, who's the funeral director in the movie. you two, by the way, are quite a team. >> yeah, he's great. he's great to work with, great to work with, yeah. no, my character dies. they fictionalize a real-life situation. a guy who sets and up goes to his own funeral because he wants to get something off his chest that's driven him into this hermetic way of living. but he has this thing with the funeral director, you know. i guess bill murray's character, everybody in chicago's dying like flies, nobody's dying, i needed business, so i'll either go with a fake funeral service, you know. >> but yes, your character wants to be at his funeral. >> yes. >> he wants to hear what these people say. >> yeah, exactly. but he ends up telling his story, rather than listening to them. and he didn't know if he could bring it off so he brings a black preacher down at the last minute, he says he feels he can to it, he can really say what's on his mind. >> who were you? because i want to get to this inspiration, who you look to do play felix in "get low." like if you're not looking at other movies or other actors who are playing hermits, what hermits can you hang around with? because they don't want you there. >> i don't know any. >> yeah. >> i find a lot of hermits, not so much this character, but a lot of hermits when they come out, all they do is talk, talk a lot, then go back into their solitude. my guy's kind of a mix. i didn't really study anyone. i just let maybe a flavor of what my family is in virginia take over. kind of. just a little bit. >> now, your new son-in-law. something important -- >> never -- never discuss the family business. >> when you and brando were doing "the godfather" together, did you discuss movies? acting? >> not too much because he doesn't like movies. he didn't like -- i always said, you should have played othello, you would have been a great othello. he didn't want to hear about it. he didn't like theater, he didn't like movies, i don't know what he liked, the guy. i guess he got jaded with all the great talents he had. we had a great time. he loved jimmy caan. he's funny and tells jokes. we had a good time. especially "godfather i," doing that. we didn't talk much about movies or anything. >> we're out of time but i always ask the last question of every guest to do something musically. musically, just -- you could hum a few bars, you could sing some kind of song. ♪ if you just hold the ladder baby i'll climb to the top ♪ >> what more can i -- >> that's from "mercy." >> thank you, sir. >> thank you, thank you, yes. >> the movie's getting great reviews already. some folks are saying it's one of his finest performances, obviously, in a legendary career. definitely worth seeing. >> it comes out today in limited release. it's been out there for a little bit. looked it up. something like that 88% on rotten tomatoes right now. in addition to that, separate viewers are saying right now this movie is just the one to see, something like 7.8 of 10 with 400 people reviewing. robert duvall's so good. i've never seen
