this is cnn breaking news. well, she was small in stature but will be forever remembered as a giant in history. this morning, the country mourns the death of supreme court justice ruth bader ginsburg. it's saturday, september 19th, good morning to you. i'm victor blackwell. >> and i'm christi paul. justice ginsburg died from complications from pancreatic cancer. she was 87. today, the flags are at

half-staff at the capitol and supreme court. >> she leaves behind a legacy there on the court, and of course, that seat, 45 days out from an already heated presidential election, it is clear this race has now been intensified. more now on the political fights that have already started. in just a moment, but first, a look at juices ginsburg's life and the zbrit and tenacity she was known for earning her the name the notorious rbg. >> reporter: ginsburg's rise from humble neighborhood to the supreme court is a classical story. >> what is the difference between a bookkeeper and new york's district as a supreme court justice just as one generation my mother's life and my bear witness where else in america would that happen. >> reporter: she was smarted tied for first in her columbia

law school. >> there were three strikes against her. first, she was a woman, first she was jewish, third, she had a young child. >> very much with the model of the naacp defense fund led by thurgood marshall, she had this idea you had to build precedent step-by-step. >> reporter: in 1980, ginsburg became a federal court judge. >> so help me god. >> so help me god. >> reporter: three years later she was named by president clinton, the second woman on the bench. >> the minute justice ginsburg came to the court we were nine justices. it wasn't seven and then the women. and it was a great relief to me. >> reporter: as a justice, ginsburg consistently voted in favor of abortion access and civil rights. perhaps her best known work on the court writing the 1996

landmark decision to strike down the virginia military's institute ban on admitting women. she was also known for her bold dissent, like the one strikes down the voting rights act and ended the mandate for some businesses under the affordable care act. >> in our view, the court does not comprehend or is indifferent to the insidious way in which women can be victims of pay discrimination. >> reporter: ruling against lilly ledbetter, ginsburg urged congress to take up the issue in her dissent. 20 months later, the lilly ledbetter pay act was the first bill that the president signed into law. in 2010, ginsburg became the most senior of her liberal

colleagues, stephen colbert figured that out the hard way. >> i'm working out with an 85-year-old woman. >> reporter: in 2019, doctors treating the justice for broken ribs discovered cancerous growths on her lung. the surgery was successful but caused ginsburg to miss arguments on the supreme court for the first time in her career. she was also treated several times for pancreatic cancer. even after losing her husband after 66 years to cancer, ginsburg was back on the bench the next morning. >> i love the work i do. i think i have the best job in the world. i respect all of my colleagues and genuinely like most of them. [ laughter ] >> reporter: her best friend on the bench was the late justice antonin scalia, her ideological

opposite. >> what's not to like. [ laughter ] accept her views of the law, of course. >> reporter: she shared a laugh about ginsburg drinking wine before nodding off at the state of the union. >> i was 100% sober because before we went to the state of the union, we had dinner together, and justice kennedy brought in -- >> well, that's the first intelligent thing you've done. >> reporter: in her later years, she gave rock star status with millennials thanks to social media. >> it was beyond my wildest imagination that i would one day become the notorious rbg. [ laughter ] ♪ can't you see >> reporter: the nickname was a play on the late rapper the notorious b.i.g. there were books, tattoos, even a praying mantis along with a

sketch. >> you just got ginsburg. >> reporter: there was a film on the basis of sex and a documentary produced by cnn. rbg was an unexpected box office hit and gave the justice an even larger platform to share her long life mission of gender equality. >> people have asked me when there there be enough women on the court? and my answer is when there are nine. [ laughter ] >> justice ginsburg, she left a profound impact on the court. and now whoever ultimately takes her seat can certainly shift the balance of the court. and that is a lifetime of lasts that long. >> it could go on for decades. her granddaughter told npr, days before her death as she lost her strength. my most fervent wish is that i will not be replaced until a new

president is installed. >> the senate isn't anticipating a political fight to come before the court. in the nation's capitol a debate is already raging hours after we've lost her whether a nominee should be brought forth. >> the president was speaking at a rally in minnesota. he was already on stage, apparently unaware of the news and the shift in the campaign. and the shift joe johnson, joe, the president was told immediately after he left the stage, and how has the president reacted so far? >> actually, the president's reaction was presidential. he praised justice ginsburg. he put out a statement praising her as a brilliant mind. saying she showed how people can be disagree without being

disagree oob disagreeable. and also talked about her opinions saying decisions on legal equity involving women and the disabled have inspired americans, and great legal minds alike. after that speech, in minnesota, the president did speak very briefly to reporters, praising the justice, and in fact, not talking at all about replacing her, listen. >> she just died? wow. i didn't know that, you're telling me now for the first time. she led an amazing life. what else can you say? she was an amazing woman. whether you agreed or not, she was an amazing woman to led an amazing life. thank you very much. >> reporter: so, that's what the president had to say, staying away from that important issue

of replacing justice ginsburg. on the other hand, senator mitch mcconnell, the top republican in the united states, where this entire confirmation issue will play out, he was not quite as subtle as the president. he, too, put out a statement, again, praising justice ginsburg. but the very last line of that statement, indicating that the president's nominee will get pay vote in the united states senate. so despite the fact that people here are trying to shy away from talking about replacing justice ginsburg, it is certainly on the minds of republicans. and it's also a huge gift for president trump. this comes 46 days before the election. he understands that a conservative pick could galvanize his support on the right. and perhaps help him in some way. the question is how they're going to play that.

it's also a sticky situation, quite frankly, for the united states senate. especially for republicans, on the judiciary committee who will have a big say in any confirmation process, once the president names someone. those republicans, especially those vulnerable republicans, can certainly expect to get a lot of pressure as their race has essentially been nationalized with the death of ruth bader ginsburg. >> yeah, a very good way to put it joe, joe johns there. thank you. ginsburg was nominated to the supreme court by president clinton. >> the former president wrote her 27 years on the court exceeded even my highest expects when i appointed her. her landmark opinions of rights

and immigrants moved us to a more perfect union. her powerful dissents, especially claims will remind us we walk away from our constitution's promise at our peril. >> live at the supreme court. justice ginsburg, we know how this trail blasing career. her opinions on gender equality, and rights, they will impact america for years to come. with her presence absent there, however, ariana, help us understand what is to come in the next few months and weeks ahead, as there's some sort of void to try to be filled just by the absence of her. >> what's key to remember with ruth bader ginsburg is she was a legend even before she got put on the high court. she worked on this area of gender equality. as a young lawyer, she went across the country, knocking down these laws that treated men

and women differently. she knew that very often she'd be appearing before male judges. stiles, she chose a male plaintiff to make the point. and of course, she became this iconic figure so unusual for a supreme court justice. you'd go across the country, you'd see swag, you'd see t-shirts that said "you can't have the truth without ruth." i interviewed a young woman who had a tattoo on her arm. she was nominated by president clinton and did become the most liberal voice on issues such as abortion, affirmative action, gay rights. but it's worth noting that one of her proudest decisions was knocking down an all-male admission policy at a state school. but she was so often in dissent, right? and one of her big dissents came in the lilly ledbetter case that had to do with pay

discrimination. another had to do with voting rights act. that's when the supreme court, the majority struck down a key provision of the voting rights act. she wrote a dissent that was so powerful that inspired young people across the country, even somebody put that dissent to music. and she infired women across the country. and that started here at the supreme court. justice elena kagan, justice sonia sotomayor. they said their path was clear because of ruth bader ginsburg. ginsburg was the second woman to be put on the court and when the two other women joined for a while, she served alone. she said i look to the right, there's a woman. to the left, i'm alone. i have to talk about a blockbuster turn, we had so many big cases coming up before she was diagnosed of course, back in february. she kept it quiet from the public. instead, she kept her led low.

she was just a dominant point in an abortion case. in another case, the courthouse doors shut because of covid. and the justices can having oral arguments by phone, ruth bader ginsburg had a health mishap, she was in a hospital bed and she said she loved her mission but no longer had the steam to continue with it. three weeks ago, she was working with one of her clerks on a book. she did, she worked to her very end to a legacy. >> grit and strength. zblauft not just lassas a legacy on the court, but as you mentioned there are aren't many kids that dress up as a justice on

halloween. democratic nominee joe biden spoke about her last night. >> let me be clear, that the voters should pick the president, and the president should pick the justice for the senate to consider. this was the position of republican senate took in 2016. when there were almost ten months to go before the election. that's the position the united states senate must take today. and the election is only 46 days off. >> cnn congressional reporter lauren fox is with us from capitol hill. lauren, good morning to you. senator mcconnell is saying to his colleagues, keep your powder dry. we're starting to hear a few little inklings, a hint of what more vulnerable republicans will do. he said, hold off on the

statements. >> that's exactly right, victor and mcconnell making it crystal clear last night. he plans to bring the president's supreme court nominee to the floor of the senate within the year. now, when exactly that plays out, that's going to be the topic of many conversations over the upcoming hours, days and weeks. and what i'm hearing right now is that the more likely scenario, mcconnell would wait until after the election. remember, lawmakers will return for eight lame duck sessions. that makes things more complicated because you have to remember, elections have consequences. and there san opportunity that democrats could take the senate majority from republicans. there's also the possibility that trump could lose in november. if that's the case, it might make things harder for mcconnell to convince moderate republicans, after members have spoken, he has to get it through a lame duck. that's why some conservatives i'm talking to behind the scenes

are pushing mcconnell to do this before the election. of course, that's complicating for people like cory gardner running for re-election in north carolina. and thom tillis. and like you said, mcconnell sending that message and just to really a few members, keep your powder dry. don't lock yourself into any particular position this early. he's going to be looking at a few key republicans. susan collins, up for re-election right now in the state of maine. lisa murkowski someone who voted against brett kavanaugh. and he's also looking at mitt romney who voteded for impeachment back in january. those are just a few of the members. she can only lose three. if he loses a fourth, then he doesn't have the votes he needs. those are the factors right now and now that could be complicated further.

and bear with me, there's a possibility that if martha mcsally loses in arizona, because that was a seat that was held by john mccain, there is a potential that mark kelly, the democratic challenger, could be installed at the end of november. that means that a lame duck vote gets even more complicated for mcconnell. he has less ability to hold that conference together if he loses more votes, so just something to keep in mind that this is a very complicated chess game. another thing to keep in mind, mcconnell is very good at chess games in the united states senate. >> lauren fox, beautifully broken down, we appreciate it. thank you. we've also got some breaking news. this is from rochester, new york. several people have been shot. we know that two people are dead, 14 have been wounded after a mass shooting on the east side of the city. >> and we're still getting details, but we know that

saying, we don't want any lady lawyers in the south. >> the late justice ruth bader ginsburg there. overnight, more reaction has come in to the passing of ginsburg. this is from president barack obama, he said, part of the statement, for nearly dedecades as the second woman ever to sit on the highest court on the land, she was a warrior for gender equality. someone who believed that equal justice under the law only had meaning if it applied to every single american. >> he went on it helped us see that the discrimination on the basis of sex isn't about the abstract of ideal of equality, at about who we are and who we can be. >> with us now to talk about the passing of supreme court ruth bader ginsburg is cnn analyst

martha power. good morning to you. when on the court, they had no idea how it would change in a minute. how is it that republicans are approaching this decision not about any justice, but justice ginsburg? >> well, good morning, victor. behind the scenes, our understanding from every republican we've talked to, whether at the white house in the senate or inside the conservative movement is that they're getting ready to move forward very quickly. what does that actually mean, though? as we know, the president has had, basically, since he took office, a running list of anybody he's been considering for supreme court vacancies. and he's had quite a record number in his presidency now. as recently as last week, we saw an updated in that list. we know that barrett continues to top that list, but there are

several other women and candidates he has ready to go. the question is two-fold, number one, how quickly does he announce his choice, number two, how quickly do mitch mcconnell and other republican senators proceed. i certainly expect the president to say who he wants to go with before the election. that is a different question from whether or not a vote could be possible. but as a means to energize his base, 100%, he understands the power that has to shift the conversation away from the coronavirus, to motivate turnout. it has worked for him in the past, and he believes it could work for him again. >> that what leaves me the question i wanted to ask, because up until this point, this has been an election essentially that has swirled around covid. how does her loss change the trajectory of what we will see in the next 45 days? >> well, it is immediately a

votes based motivation for the president. the consideration -- in the past, we've seen this be a much more energizing issue for republican voters, conservatives voters than democratic or liberal voters does that change? we've seen evidence in polling. democrats are more galvanized than in the past. but there'ses the no structure shows evangelicals or the political arm that have in the past turned out in this republican party around this issue of justices. for president trump, it answers -- it has in the past, answered all of these questions about, well, what about how he conducts his personal life, what about how he treats people on twitter? and the answer for many conservatives has been, that's not my cup of tea, but he's delivered on judges and justices. so that will continue to be a rallying cry.

it's a different calculation for many of the republican senators in some of these pivotal states whose positioning in the weeks to come could absolutely impact turnout in their races. so a situation in theory, where the president could win, or a republican senator could lose. so, as you've seen with mcconnell, he is urging key republicans don't lock yourself into any statement right now. there's going to be a real effort to kind of game-out what are the down ballot implications, what are the up ballot implications. it's kind of incredible that we're talking just hours after her death about this politics. but she understood, that's why she gave that closing wish to her granddaughter. >> you have three vulnerable republicans on the judiciary, starting with joni ernst, thomas tillis in north carolina. we know that the senators are not giving statements right now

but we do have their statements from 2016 after president obama nominated garrett. we heard from lauren fox if the plan to take up the confirmation hearings in lame duck, here's what senator cornyn said in 2016 about that idea. >> this nomination will change the ideological balance of the supreme court for a generation. justice scalia served for 30 years. so, because of that, because of all of this, i believe the american people should have their voices heard in the selection of the next supreme court nominee. i know there's been some members of the press who have asked about, well if not now, how about in a lame duck session of the congress. that is after the election before the new president is confirmed.

i think that is a terrible idea. if you believe in the principle that the american people's voice ought to be heard, it makes no sense to have an election, and then to do it and not honor their selections. >> how are they trying to get themselves out of these very clear concise arguments against exactly what they're planning to do? >> well, technically, i think the way they're trying to do it is to say that was different because president obama was democrat and republicans controlled the senate. and that's different than if both the sitting president or the senate are republican controlled. but the bigger answer to your question is, i just don't think it matters. i mean, i would be shocked if we would see republicans and leadership get this close to the goal line and then blink because they made a promise four years ago. and lindsey graham, yes, the clip will be played, probably ads being cut right now saying you can hold it against me.

okay, you can hold it against him. can you imagine the pressure from his own party and his desire to move on from this. i don't think it matters at all. and i think the question for democrats, if all of this happens as we're discussing, is that if president trump and senate republicans move forward. and then if there were to be an election result it's controlled both chambers of congress and the white house, there would be enormous pressure on biden to consider court packing or some other modification of the court as it looks today. >> margaret talev, appreciate your insight. thank you. >> thank you. still to come, we take a look at justice ginsburg's most notable decisions and dissents. stay with us. ♪ way things get done.

well, people have been lighting candles and laying flowers there outside the court, for the late justice ruth bader ginsburg. hundreds showed up at the steps of the court to pay tribute overnight. >> you just feel gravitated to be here. for a woman of the court that represents so much, so many progress. it just felt like a natural place to be. >> i just felt like i should bring my daughter down here and kind of demonstrate to her the impact that ruth bader ginsburg had on our family, as a military service member, i had followed her and the things that she did to open schools up.

for especially all genders, i thought i should bring my daughter down. i was actually at an event earlier this year in february, where she was speaking. and it just to be honest rumored her, you could feel the power of her presence, and the impact she's had in our society and history. and just to know that she's no longer with us, it just feels like it's such a loss. >> take a look at other candlelight vigils taking place in cities around the country. in denver, colorado. san francisco, california. supporters are holding signs, they sang songs, all, of course, honoring justice ginsburg. >> she was known for dissents in important rulings. joining me cnn political analyst

julian zelizer. julian, good morning to you. we're just a couple weeks out from the 2020 term, what the loss means to the court. and how it realigns the positions we saw in the 2019 term of chief justice roberts and others. >> foremost, it's just the loss of a real giant on the court, one of the more important justices in recent years. and so, for the court, it's a period to mourn that loss. but it's also a loss of someone on a liberal bloc that's been fighting pretty consistently against gender discrimination and for democratic rights such as voting. and now the balance on the court is going to shift even further to the right. so this is going to have a significant long-term effect on the kind of rulings we see. >> obviously, women's right, immigrant rights, gay rights, her focus was always equality. >> yes. >> how -- what did she do,

specifically? give us an example or two, just so people understand the significance that she leaves behind and the gap that is now there on the supreme court? no matter how short that gap may be. >> sure. one of her first big rulings, i think, three years after coming on to the court, was the virginia military institute. and being part of a decision that state funding could go to an institution that denied admission to women. and that's a core principle that in the 1990s was still operational. and in that decision, and subsequent dissents, including a series of decisions involving obamacare, she always stood up for gender equality, reprodu reproductive rights being part of public policy. when when she was losing, her dissents were very strong and articulated that principle.

>> so if vice president wins in november and as lauren fox there from the capitol suggests the plan is for mitch mcconnell to confirm a trump nominee in a lame duck session, there will be the pressure on vice president biden to pack the court, add a tenth, or more justices to the court. what's history tell us about the plausibility or the popularity of that idea? >> well, democrats will remember what franklin roosevelt tried to do that in 1937 or 1938. and the result wasn't that the court was changed, the result was a backlash where people were saying fdr, and a lot of people worried that response would happen today and that would mobilize conservatives and leave biden without a court that will have change. so, i think that's going to loom large. in the short term, i think president trump is going to be able to deliver via senator

mcconnell, a court that is decidedly to the right, as a result of what's just happened. >> people -- there are a lot of people, julian, that look at what's happening today and think we can certainly not get more divided than we already are. is it possible to see even more division after this? >> for sure. every time we think that -- you see it's even worse. and here you have a court battle right in the middle of a heated election. the nomination is going to start coming soon, i would expect. and that will also amplify and maybe worsen a lot of divisions that exist over core issues in public life right now. >> so, we know that the opening of this seat will energize president trump's base. but does this energize the democratic party as much? i mean, will this bring both

sides to an equal level, moving forward for the next 45 days? or is this something that primarily the right, especially the marquee issue of life will lean on? >> historically, conservatives have been more mobilized around court issues than liberals. that's just a fact in terms of how this plays out. and i expect that might be the same, especially this time. because it looks like in the next few months, republicans will basically achieve what they wanted in terms of shifting the court. other than court-packing, in many ways, democrats won't have as much of a battle in the next presidential term if it is abided. i think history of conservatives will much more mobilize. >> all right. we're still waiting to get some of those statements from republican senators although mitch mcconnell is asking them to keep their powder dry. we'll see what they have to say

today. julian zelizer, thank you so much. >> thanks for having me. >> we'll be back. ...do your sneezes turn heads? try zyrtec... ...it starts working hard at hour one... and works twice as hard when you take it again the next day. zyrtec muddle no more. killer attitude. good moves. or hydration. neutrogena® hydro boost. the number 1 hyaluronic acid moisturizer instantly delivers

well, this morning, the u.s. is getting closer to 200,000 deaths to covid-19. almost 30 states reports a an increase in coronavirus cases this week. 50,000 cases reported yesterday alone. on average, the u.s. has seen an average of new cases reported daily, but that number is down from the weekly highs, reported in july. >> and there are increasing concerns, political pressure may be driving the development of a vaccine. president trump claims that a coronavirus vaccine will be approved, manufactured and ready for distribution to, quote, every american by april of 2021. by next year. that time line, however, doesn't match those laid out by his own health advisers, medical researchers or even the companies that are making the

vaccines. >> we'll have manufactured at least 100 million vaccine doses before the end of the year. and it's likely much more than that. hundreds of millions of doses will be available every month. and we expect to have enough vaccines for every american by april. >> cnn's erica hill reports on the conflicting information that's coming from this president's administration. >> reporter: get tested, that's the latest guidance from the cdc for anyone who has been in contact with an infected person. revised again, after it was revealed changes last month that focused on testing those with coronavirus symptoms did not come from cdc scientists. >> all of this conflicting information and questions of political motivation are really hampering the efforts to take control of this virus and to get back to our normal way of living. >> reporter: the virus is not under control. >> we're trending in the wrong direction.
