justice john paul stevens stepped down when he was about 90, so i think i have about five more years. put us all in summer 2023 or focussed in until 2024, presidential election year to retire and of course if you wanted to use it, there is the logic republicans had against obama saying that a second term lame duck shouldn't nominate the replacement. the battle is now over kennedy's seat and judge brett kavanaugh. breaking ranks to become the first democrat to do such a meeting. called his two-hour sit down today productive. but said i think it is irresponsible. there is a new report that's interesting in "politico" that chuck schumer is telling the democratic caucus stay as neutral as you can as long as you can. the belief is that if others remain on the fence it boosts schumer's long odds of finding a way to beat back this confirmation. the x factor is how it unfolds. americans who are starting to make up their mind about brett kavanaugh are going to have a role here. his net support is now negative. many opposing more than supporting. we will keep you posted on this story as it deve

reports on the subject of her own eventual retirement came up she slighted the example of justice john paul next week will be justice i th about at least five more years. next week will be justice ginsburg's 25th anniversary on the supreme court. that is tonight's last word. "the 11th hour" with brian williams starts now. >>> rudy giuliani's wild ride. multiple tv interviews today, three on fox news alone and tonight from the "new york times," the question, what are we witnessing? is he changing trump's defense on collusion, moving the goal post on the fly as we watch? >>> plus, paul manafort, the former trump campaign chairman faces the first trial of the mueller investigation all just hours from now. >>> and the president's threat to shut down the government. something you just don't hear when the same party controls the

he played an incredibly important role during the late years of the john paul ii papacy, benedict xvi instrumental in helping get pope francis elected in march of 2013. the accusations now hold that cardinal mccarrick is guilty of a variety of acts of sexual misconduct and abuse, including in at least one case with a minor. of course, pope francis has pledged himself to a strong zero tolerance policy on sexual abuse. today the vatican announced that the pope has accepted cardinal mccarrick's resignation from the cardinal college, college of cardinals, so as of today he is no longer a cardinal, and that the pope has also suspended mccarrick, meaning he is not able to act as a priest. he cannot celebrate mass. he cannot do confirmations and so on. while a church investigation against him is unfolding. so, what we have is fairly dramatic and rapid papal action against the highest rung of the catholic structure. this kind of thing is unprecedented since the early 20th century. >> all right. well, we'll continue to follow it through you, john allen. thank you very much for insights on the

john paul ii used to say be not afraid. he didn't say have courage but trump operates a lot like that. i have no idea what will happen in singapore. i think it is possible they will have a very successful meeting. i think it is also possible that morning around breakfast he will say it will not work and he will walk out and that is the range of options. we shot part of the movie at the ranch called rendezvous with destiny we went to reykjavÍk couple years ago in iceland and there is a little house where reagan and gorbachev met in 1987. there is a great scene in the movie straight out of the newsreels where reagan was holding out for missile-defense. gorbachev was offering him everything. arms and treaties that give up missile-defense. and reason -- reagan said no. i am not doing so then gorbachev said we will not give you anything and reagan says that's fine so it breaks down they walk outside there was a great scene making is not normally this aggressive literally in his face talking and saying you did this. you made a mi

further you mentioned contacts and i think that's what's so important here so this is a tweet got from john paul he says these i didn't to tarion at the right of the far right meaning the ultra right were the first to say that the french team should better be called the team of africans so of course that is what a lot of people have a problem with but on the plus side is that this person on twitter and i'll give this you lewis cuts a kani says bringing. at back to national identity to say the french national team which they rightly are are not african smacks of supremacy and implies that they must choose one of the other went to sides being racists and this person's view is factually correct when you talk to us about that but the having to choose aspect well of course well i think it's a very personal choice to make to begin with i mean the little stories that these players need to make themselves i don't think anybody could make it for them the problem i have is that other people were trying to certain that nationality on to the french that it was excuse me then you must go ahead we were going

in which he detailed his experiences in the french resistance as a young man his friendship with john paulsartre and his friendship and love affair with simone de beauvoir he also published the newspaper a little modern founded by and sartre in the one nine hundred fifty s. and twenty thirteen revisited the holocaust with last of the young just a documentary set into reason to get. six. it's a very beautiful film very strong feel i say that because it's true it's got nothing to do with vanity like somebody it's not got an objective soul. to help his subjects be a witness to some of the periods in history. and it should be said on that show. his famous film is considered by many the sort of definitive record of the holocaust in fact. by lots of critics receive lots of awards indeed i mean it. was called the greatest film critics and others called it the great documentary have. the sort of website that sort of collates what the critics say it's got a number hundred percent you know in other words there were no. it didn't get loads of awards perhaps the daunting prospect for the academy. but

republicans nominate justices for the supreme court in the past they thought were conservative, john paul stevens, david souter, but you think that's not going to happen this time? >> no, those days are gone. the conservatives of the past 20, 30 years in part because of that have developed a kind of farm team system. they groomed candidates for judges and those candidates themselves, people who want to make an impact in the world that way, they see what happened to robert bork. they see what happened to other idealogical judges. so they keep their heads down. it's about methodology, it's about participating in those networks where conservatives know that if they come to be nominated, they're reliable. >> okay, the vote is going to come down to a handful of modern senators on both sides of the aisle, the left and the right, including republican senator susan collins who we're speaking to in a moment. what do you think the president is doing to secure their votes? >> so he's taking a kind of good cop bad cop approach and he's both cops. he is trying on one hand at his rallies and on twitter

my senior colleague justice john paul stevens, he stepped down when he was 90 so think i have about at least five more years. jonathan, rbg, five more years? we've seen the workouts. we've seen her work ethic, which is extraordinary. >> right. >> she's twice a cancer survivor, but, obviously, someone who is determined to stay as long as she feels she can work effectively as associate justice of the supreme court. >> there are all those cheers you hear, it's coming from the democratic party and progressives who desperately want rbg to stay. one, because she is held in such high regard but, two, if she leaves, that would cement president trump's hold and conservatives' hold on the supreme court for generations far into the future. i always joke that i sometimes envision or hope that ruth -- justice ginsburg sleeps in bubble wrap, walks around in bubble wrap because i want nothing to happen to her. that's a sentiment a lot of people have. >> whether you love her or not, i recommend the documentary "rbg." it's an extraordinary evocation of what it took for this woman to reach the court and
