a towering figure in american politics john mccain spent more than three decades in the u.s. congress looming large in debates over war and peace and the moral direction of the nation. i hope and again with. cooperate. to learn how to trust each other. and. serve the people. he served in the vietnam war as a navy pilot on a bombing mission in one nine hundred sixty seven he was shot down over one noyo captured by the north vietnamese he suffered five and a half years of torture and confinement before his release his courage as a p.o.w. earned him bipartisan praise as an american hero he was elected to the u.s. house in one thousand nine hundred two representing arizona and to the senate four years later beginning his long and influential career in washington in his two

failed bid for presidency in two thousand and two thousand and eight mccain largely refused to engage in political mudslinging even defending opponent barack obama's integrity. in his last years mccain became an outspoken critic of president trump he gave a thumbs down vote to trump's repeal of obamacare earning the president's enduring wrath. in july two thousand and seventeen he was diagnosed with brain cancer which eventually forced him to withdraw from public life. on twitter mccain's wife said that he passed the way he lived on his own terms. john mccain will be remembered as a political maverick willing to stick to his convictions rather than the political line. and let's get more on this now from a washington correspondent custom phenomenon contributes to the great man pouring in give us a sense of how the u.s.

more how president from just a few days ago omitted the name of john mccain when he was presenting odd signing a defense bill that basically had john mccain's name on it and on the trump managed not to mention him at all it just shows how petty the battle between the two have become and people are not really looking for more quotes from the from donald trump at this point the focus is on john mccain ok const many thanks for that cousin phenomenon reporting from washington. pope francis is due to celebrate an outdoor mass in dublin later today on the second day of his visit to ireland with more than half a million people expected to attend the pope is currently in the west of ireland where he led the so-called angelus but only in the not shrine encountered. the pope again addressing the catholic church's sex abuse scandal saying it was
