our coverage continues, now, with don lemon and cnn tonight. don. >> this is cnn tonight. i am don lemon. we have sad, breaking news, especially for the entire country. but for those who have loved and have lost a woman figure in your life, a grandmother figure that you have looked up to, a fighter for justice. it is especially sad, in this moment, and we are keenly aware of what justice ruth bader ginsburg meant to women, all across this country and in the world. she's dead, at the age of 87. i want to take you to the white house, now, live. where flags -- and the capitol as well -- they are flying at half staff tonight. crowds gather on steps of the supreme court. millions of americans will remember exactly where they were when they heard the news. ruth bader ginsburg was a brilliant, brilliant supreme court justice, vigorous fighter for justice and equality. changing the balance of power on the highest court in this land. justice ginsburg, less than five-feet tall, was a fighter till her last breath. here is what npr's reporting. just days before her death, ginsburg dic

don lemon. >> this is cnn tonight. i am don lemon. here is our breaking news. more from bob woodward's interview with the president and this is really, really stunning. i want you to listen to what the president of the united states, who has downplayed and denied the pandemic from the beginning, listen to what he said to woodward. keep in mind, this was a while ago, right? back on april 13th. >> this thing is a killer if it gets you. if you're the wrong person, you don't have a chance. >> yes. yes, exactly. this is a scourge and -- >> it's the plague. >> okay. so why did i play that for you? why is that important? it's important because he knew. he knew the virus is a killer. a plague, right? those are his words. you heard him say it. yet, he didn't tell americans the truth, when he knew our lives depend on it. he hid the facts. lives depended on it and he hid the facts. he says i didn't ant juaniwant . come on. so what should we think tonight with this country facing three life-threatening crises? we have the pandemic. the death toll getting closer d and closer. wildfires raging in the west. over 3.3 million acres burned to a crisp in california. deadly, once-in-a-generation fires in oregon. skies turning orange and clouds raining ash. and there is also hurricane sally, already, a category 2, getting closer and closer to the coast. and stronger and stronger. taking aim at the gulf coast. it's like nothing any of us has ever -- have ever seen, before. a hurricane, wildfires, daieadl pandemic, all at the same time. and also, in the middle of a very consequential and important election. so, we have all of this. and what does this president do? how does he respond when american lives depend on him facing reality and accepting the science, the facts, the evidence? what does he do? he ignores all of it. putting his own supporters at risk, tonight. making a mockery of his own government's guidelines, holding his second crowded, indoor campaign event, in two days, against his own guidelines. against the guidelines, actually, of arizona and of phoenix. ha ha ha. no mask. really? hardly, a mask in sight. in a packed crowd. >> i think, next year, you're going to have a fantastic year. it's going to be great. we're cutting taxes, even further. and we're going to have big growth. a lot of good things are happening. >> platitudes. fantastic. going to be great. good things happening. good things are happening. they're not. can we -- can i just see the video of that crowd again, please? can we just play the video of that crowd? and this is the person who's supposed to set -- look at that. shame on the president for leading these people into the situation. but they're adults. why are they doing this? hmm? adults. who should know better. science. facts. good things are happening, he says. good things are happening? well, not with the pandemic, but you wouldn't know it from that crowd. not with the pandemic or the wildfires or the hurricane. but the president doesn't want to talk about any of that. he is willing to risk the safety of his own supporters, as i just showed you, just for the picture of a packed crowd, indoors, so he can pretend everything is back to normal. are you the mark? are you being used? hey. ha, ha, ha. really? are you willing to put your lives in danger? okay. that may be okay. fine. you want to do that. but what about other people's lives? what about the vulnerable in society, in your family, that you are going to come into contact with after you go to this? you may not want -- fine. don't do it. but think about someone, other than yourself. but to believe all of that, that the president is talking about, you'd have to forget, and what that crowd is doing, that more than 5,000 people in arizona have died of the virus. bob woodward couldn't get him to understand that real people are suffering. >> i mean, there are parts of the book you're not going to like. >> what won't i like, bob? >> well, just, you know, there is -- it's tough times. the -- the virus, as you repeatedly told me and as you've said publicly, it's derailed things. and it's -- it's a big reality in people's lives, as you know. so i will get it to you. >> you know, the market's coming back very strong. you do know that. >> yes, of course. >> did you cover that in the book? >> oh, sure. >> the markets. now, be honest with me. how many of you are in the markets? or how many of you think the supporters are in the markets, making tons of money? donald trump's new york friends certainly are. his rich buddies. tons of money. doing great. but think about it. really? does the market reflect your home life? how you are paying your bills? how you are paying your mortgage? how you are sending your kids back to school? how you are concerned about even dying in the situation? does -- does the market reflect that? the stock market? it's not a reflection of the actual economy. it's a reflection of how rich people are doing. he does not want to talk about how americans are suffering. he wants you to think everything is back to normal. well, none of this is normal. and it's going to take science, it's going to take facts and evidence, to get us out of all of this. i have something to say but i want you -- just listen to joe biden, what he has to say about that. >> hurricanes don't swerve to avoid red states or blue states. wildfires don't skip towns that voted a certain way. the impacts of climate change don't pick and choose. that's because it's not a partisan phenomenon. it's science. >> if you really think about it, think about hurricanes come the south, a lot of the south, red states. actually, affect a lot of red states. so, there you go. but he is -- he is right. it is science. but this president has no respect for the science. none. california. the governor there, gavin newsom, valiantly tried to convince him during a wildfire briefing in california, today. >> we come from a perspective, humbly, where we submit the science in and observed evidence is self-evident that climate change is real. >> listen to this exchange. >> if we ignored that science and sort of put our head in the sand and think it's all about vegetation management, we're not going to succeed to get at protecting californians. >> it'll start getting cooler. you just watch. >> i wish science agreed with you. >> well, i don't think science knows, actually. >> that was california's secretary of natural resources, bravely, speaking up for science. by the way, i'm going to talk with him, tonight. but that is just the most blatant example of this president dismissing the science when it doesn't go his way. he's not the only one. his administration, right in line with him. trump appointees at health and human services, reportedly, pushing to change weekly science reports from the cdc in the middle of a pandemic. why is that? federal health official tells cnn it was all about not contradicting the president. and then, there's michael caputo. a top spokesman for health and human services going on a rant on facebook, last night, accusing government scientists of sedition. and claiming, with absolutely no evidence, because there isn't any evidence, that a federal health agency has what he calls a resistance unit against the president. so many conspiracy -- have you ever heard, in your life, so many conspiracy theories? so many people believing junk? and there's more. longtime climate crisis skeptic appointed by the trump administration to help lead noah, that's the agency that oversees weather forecasting and climate research. and not the first time that the president has tried to take science into his own hands. as it were. remember, when he showed reporters of the map of potential path of hurricane dorian? that sharpie drawing over alabama? remember that? this is what i wanted to say to you, before i finish up here. everyone wants to get back to normal. everyone wants their kids back in school. everyone wants to be back in business. eat in restaurants. to open up. this is a key. this is common sense. if americans, if we had more buy-in from, first, the administration, then the public, people had taken it seriously, socially distance, wore masks, stop making excuses about when people said to wear a mask or not wear a mask. do what the scientists say. more buy-in, guess what? we would be like every other developed nation in this world. either, back to normal or well on our way back to normal. if only people had just abided by the rules when the scientists and the doctors said so. your kids? will be back in school. you wouldn't have to worry about them. chris is talking about the kid with the long haul. restaurants would be open. all of these things, you'd be able to do right now. but the more you fight it, the more you resist, the longer it is going to take. with americans in danger from a deadly pandemic, raging wildfires, another hurricane, this president is ignoring the science. he's ignoring the facts. i hate to sound, you know, like donnie downer, here, but it's hard to be optimistic, a lot. but i just want you to listen to what joe biden says, today, in the face of all of this. >> americans face this historic inflexion point. a time of real peril but, also, a time of extraordinary possibilities. i'm confident. i know we can do this. we will do this. this is the united states of america. we've seen the light through the dark smoke. we never gave up. always, without exception, every time, we succeed when we try. >> wildfires. a hurricane. the pandemic. americans are facing crises, everywhere you look. and the president is ignoring the science that could save us. lots to discuss. kaitlan collins, ryan lizza, next. ♪ here?

don. >> make sure you tune in tomorrow night for the cnn films documentary, rbg. >>> and this is cnn tonight, i'm don lemon, it's 11:00 p.m. on the east coast. our historic breaking news, the death of ruth bader ginsburg, she passed away surrounded by family after a long battle with cancer. she was 87 years old and nominated to the high court in 1993 by president bill clinton, honoring her tonight saying known for her brilliant mind and powerful you dissents in the supreme court. she showed that one can disagree without being disagreeable with one's colleagues. her different points of view have inspired all americans and generations of great legal minds. the chief justice john roberts saying the court has lost a cherished colleague. npr is reporting days before her death, she dictated this statement to her granddaughter with the bluntness she was known for. and i quote, my most fervent wish is i will not be replaced until a new president is installed. cnn's senior correspondent is up on capitol hill for us this evening and he brings us the very latest. good evening to you, let's talk about, unfortunately we have to talk about the bitter politics as our colleague said, mitch mcconnell, making it clear that the republican majority will try to replace justice ginsburg this year. does he have the vote to do it? >> that will be the big question that we will look at for the next few months. whether or not he can prevent more than three republican senators from breaking ranks. right now, that majority is at if 53-47. if he loses more than three, that nominee will not be confirmed. already will, there's several senators that are resisting moving forward, some have changed their views over the last several weeks and months. it's uncertain the if they have the votes to move forward. what appears to be the case, talking to republicans tonight, and also from just looking at the past confirmation proceedings. typically they take 2-3 months to happen. which means that there's probably not enough time to push through a nomination before the election. but, there's the chance of getting somebody confirmed in a post election. lame duck session of congress. that's when, no matter what happens in november, the republicans will still be in charge of the senate in the two months from november to january, and also, the president trump will still be president until a new president or he gets to, he has to go through the second inauguration, in the end of january. so, the question is going to be, whether or not the republicans move ahead either before the election or in the lame duck segregation. mcconnell making clear that he wants to move ahead, and he will make the decision about timing based on the votes and one other thing, the republicans are indicating they want to move ahead before the election because of the concerns that they have that the election year disputes in the courts and that it could wind up in the supreme court rather than avoid a 4-4 deadlock, having a ninth justice on to break a tie, of course, that was the case in 2016. when it was a 4-4 supreme court and when mitch mcconnell held open the supreme court seat that president obama moved forward. mitch mcconnell saying he is moving forward and he is moving forward this year. >> it's all too. . it's unbelievable. the amount of news and you have all of this happening on the same night that we break the news to the world really, that justice ginsburg has passed away. a lot of republicans, manu are in tough re-election campaigns. how is this going to factor in? >> it's going to be a big question. a number of the republicans need conservative voters to get behind them, and to see them breaking ranks and angering their conservative base on such a significant issue. which is make up of the supreme court would seem to be unlikely in some of these cases. i think you could expect some of, a lot of the republican senators in tough races to side with the president to side with mitch mcconnell and to push forward and to confirm a nominee. now, one republican senator who is up for re-election in a difficult of race, susan collins of maine, said it's unlikely she does not want to confirm a nominee in november. if biden wins, she will be opposed to naming a nominee in a lame duck session. it's unclear there's enough republicans siding with her that would prevent the president and mitch had mcconnemcconnell from ahead and getting somebody confirmed to the bench. expect it to be the discussion and the intense focus on capitol hill over the next few months. >> as i'm speaking, i'm looking through my quotes for lyndsay graham and others. chuck grass willly, and so fort this is 2016 that i want you to respond to. senator lyndsay graham went out of his way to insist that if this day ever came, manu, that he would be consistent and not support a supreme court nominee in an election year. we will play it and then i will get your response. >> i want you to use my words against me. if there's a republican president in 2016, and a vacancy occurs in the last year of the first term, you can say, linsey gram said let's let the next president, whoever it might be, make that nomination and you could use any words against me and you would be absolutely right. we are setting a precedent here today. republicans are, that in the last year, at least of a lame duck eight-year term, i would say it's going to be a four-year term, that you are not going to fill a vacancy of the supreme court based on what we are doing here today. that's going to be the new rule. >> okay. so, listen. over the last year, manu, there's been a lot of hipocracy, g gone unchecked, senator graham is in a tough re-election fight of his life right now. you think he is going to keep his word? >> he is actually changed his tune since then. i have spoken to him a few times about this very topic in recent months. including in late july, when i asked him, would you move forward with a supreme court nominee if a vacancy were to arise. and he is the senate judiciary chairman, he said we will see what the market will bear. we will see if there's enough support to move forward -- >> manu, manu, listen -- >> he would like to confirm one. he still wants to confirm a nominee despite the comments from 2016. >> that is 2016, and i think i have one in 2018. correct me if i'm wrong. if an opening comes in the last year of a president's term and the primary process mahas start, we will wait until the next presidency. he said is it in 2016 and 2018. and recently he has changed his mind? >> yes, absolutely. he has made it clear that he is open to move. if they want to confirm someone, he said, the quote market will bear, in other words, we will see if there's support to move forward. if president trump is pushing for a nomination to be confirmed, linsey graham is in a difficult race, he will be on the same page. >> well, that answers the question, doesn't it? thank you very much. let's go to cnn's jim acosta, our chief white house correspondent. standing by. jim, hello to you. i want to talk to you about the ---er. >> okay, thanks. >> jim, can you hear me? we don't have jim acosta. if not, we will go to jessica snyder. until jim gets ready, jessica snyder is outside the supreme court. appreciate you joining us. earlier when we joined you, when we saw you before, there were folks standing outside of the supreme court. they had gathered after the news of justice ginsburg. what is the scene like now? >> still a massive crowd, about three hours after we heard of the passing of justice ginsburg, the crowd out here remains strong. we had a flare up of tension when the hecklers came through shouting things. but it's peaceful now and quiet and spontaneous applause erupting from time to time. everyone out here honoring the life of justice ginsburg. she served 27 years. justice john roberts when he released the statement, when the court announced justice ginsburg's passing. he called her a tireless and resolute champ milliion of just. she personified tireless, don. it was just last night that the national constitution center actually honored justice ginsburg with the liberty medal. she did not attend the big event. there was a video made, where kate mckinnon, a cast member on saturday night live, who portrays the notorious rbg as she has been known in popular culture. but justice ginsburg wrote a letter for that ceremony and she gave her thanks. she directed where the $100,000 would go that she was getting for the award. she worked up until the end, don, she worked up until the end battling cancer. and really all the people up here tonight are honoring her, they are silent and peaceful right now and they just had kind words to say about her. >> jessica snyder, thank you so much, reporting from outside the supreme court. let's tri-c nn jim a costa, again. there you are. jim, you can hear me now. >> hey, don, i can, you are right. >> i understand the president made a statement, i read it moments ago.
