By the pope himself to be better. Reporter in a wide ranging address fueled by both compassion and a sense of shared humanity, the pope evoked president lincoln and Martin Luther king junior in a call for america to continue to dream big and have heart for all. The pontiff did not shy away from politically sensitive topics including crisis across europe, the Death Penalty, climate change, immigration and gay marriage. Relations are called into question as the basis of only reiterate the importance and above all the richness of family life. We, the people of this con continue meant are wrong to be fearful of foreigners. Most of us. [ applause ] because most of us were once foreigners. [ applause ] reporter the pope talked about the plight of the poor and troubled youth urging lawmakers to show caring and heart and to follow the golden rule. This rule points us in a clear direction. Let us treat others with the same passion and compassion with which we want to be treated. Reporter the pope was for at least a morning this political lion epps den was lions den was tamed by a higher power. God bless america. Reporter a really extraordinary morning. The early analysis was this speech was more progressive than conservative. He came out against the Death Penalty and abortion as well. Something for everyone. This speech will stir up d. C. As these speeches tend to do but a more remarkable moment was on the other side of the capitol where at least 50,000 people gathered outside to watch the speech on a screen on the opposite side we could hear the roar of the crowd. The pope came out on the balcony after the speech and asked tens of thousands of folks pray for me and waved and saved god bless america. Extraordinary day unlike any we have seen here. Reporting live from the channel 7 Eyewitness News. Amazing indeed. Another live look at the pope. He is at Saint Patricks church. He is meeting with 300 of washingtons homeless. He will bless the statue of a homeless person. You are looking live once again at pope francis among people there. Amazing. It was House Speaker john boehner that invited pope francis to speak to congress. The speaker, who is Roman Catholic got emotional at several points during the pontiffs visit to capitol hill as many of us have seen. The last 20 years he asked the sitting pope to speak before congress. Francis was the first to accept his invitation. Boehner has gotten tearyeyed at a number of moments that we all witnessed. Thats for sure. Lets go back live to washington. You can see the pope making his way to Saint Patricks church. He will serve 300 Homeless People outside that church. You can see the excitement. He is trying to get close to the people, posing for selfies and making himself available to anyone in the crowd. You know he has a soft spot for children when he has that chance. There will be a large tent providing shelter for more than 50 tables to feed 300 homeless there and the representative for the pontiff said he will be acting in many ways like the matter d at this. There will be carrots, potato rolls, plenty of stuff to enjoy. About 70 volunteers from Catholic Charities are there to help out. There will be music playing, a very festive moment, of course, the focus on much of the trip is toward the homeless, the needy and here he is having a chance to meet people up close and in person. Amazing. We will continue to follow the latest on the trip toward that moment where he does participate in that event. Again, as we watch this, we are less than five hours from the popes expected arrival in new york. He is scheduled to touchdown at kennedy at 5 00.

People are already gathering around Saint Patricks ahead of the evening prayers referred to as vespers. The area is shut down and only people with tickets can line the motorcade route. N. J. Burkett is live in midtown with his report. Reporter the security in midtown is like nothing i have ever seen. We are at the corner of 49th and sixth avenue. This is about two blocks from the cathedral down 49th then up on to 5th avenue. Thats where the cathedral is. People are going to check in, hundreds of people will check in here for the popes first which is, of course, the Prayer Service at Saint Patricks. They cannot possibly accommodate everyone in the cathedral. If you want to watch the motorcade on 5th avenue, you need a special ticket. Security got real serious real fast on 5th avenue this morning. Hundreds of Police Officers and federal agents took up positions outside of st. Patricks cathedral more than six hours before pope francis was expected to arrive in midtown. As Cardinal Dolan left his residence to supervise the last minute preparations. You will be there, i hope . We will be looking for you. Reporter many of the popes most devote followers will not be there. In fact, they wont even catch a glimpse of francis. This 87yearold came from new jersey to watch from 5th avenue only to find an 8foot metal fence and a sign saying she couldnt stand there. She begged officers to let her stay and was told she couldnt stand anywhere near the cathedral. It was heartbreaking. Its not fair. Its not fair. He is coming to see the people and the people want to see poppa. He wants to touch the people. Reporter how does this make you feel . Makes you feel sad. I want to see my pope. Reporter he likes contact with the people. He likes that. He know like this. We are in jail. No see the people, no . Reporter you can see the security here. We are two blocks from st.

Hours away from the popes arrival in the heart of manhattan is barricaded fenced in and closed off. A Security Posture never seen before, even by new yorkers used to safely hosting world leaders. Necessary. Nobody does it better than we do. New york being the capitol of the world we have the most practice doing it. Reporter sources told us in the remaining hours before the pope arrives here, the fbi, secret service and nypd are throwing all their counterterrorism resources to tracking downey potential threats. They are tasking their confidential informants to go out and be the eyes and ears, if you will of the joint terrorist task force if there is a viable threat against the pope that they need to react to before the pope arrives.

So, this morning, yogi berras son and granddaughter provided us with highlights of one of the greatest leaves anyone can live telling us that yogi treated everyone the same no matter if they were the ceo of a Major Corporation or a taylor, no distinction. Stories about growing up in great father and not realizing that their dad was a great baseball player when they were younger. They didnt call him yogi, they called him dad. They talked about the rift with george steinbrenner. It could have ended quickly if george would have apologized for firing yogi in person, if he had come to him in person and done the fishing. They talked about his friendship, the opponents on the right side of the color line when it wasnt yet socially accepted and, they duplicated. Authentic. Insight into a life that was amazing. He never saw larry or i play baseball but he never missed a hockey game, a football game, larrys basketball game. He was so there for us when the season ended.
