In the popemobile. But no one wanted to see him more than the parents of an ailing child. They were moved to tears when the pope gave the child his blessing. Theyre among nearly 20,000 people at Madison Square garden tonight, where the pope is celebrating mass. And remember this image of the pope yesterday with a very emotional john boehner . Well, it has proven to be prophetic. Today, the catholic speaker of the house, the highest ranking republican in the nation, announced that after praying about it, he is resigning at the end of next month. In the middle of his third term as speaker. Heres Congressional Correspondent nancy cordes. I decided, you know, todays the day im going to do this. As simple as that. Reporter boehners decision stunned official washington, from the president. I just heard the news as i was coming out of the meeting here. So it took me by surprise. Reporter to democratic leader nancy pelosi. Its seismic for the pows. Reporter to boehners fellow republicans, like wisconsins paulrian. Reporter sir, are you going to run for speaker . I am not. Reporter why not . I dont want to. Reporter its easy to see why. Boehner got worn down by four years of fight with his right flank. Reporter do you think this is worth shutting the government down over . I think this is worth fighting over obamacare, which the American People reject. Reporter they dug in their heels on the debt ceiling, obamacare, and funding for planned parenthood. When boehner said those fights were unwinnable, he became the enemy. Heres how conservative activists reacted today when senator marco rubio broke the news. Just a few moments ago Speaker Boehner announced he will be resigning. Reporter since july, a couple dozen conservatives have been pushing for another vote to unseat boehner, and the contempt is mutual. You used word like knuckle heads and probably some other word we cant use on television. Probably. Reporter had you just had enough giwould not describe it as having had enough. Thats not it at all. When youre the speaker of the house, your number one responsibility is to the institution, and having a vote like this in the institution, i dont think is very healthy. Reporter but wont the next speaker face the same thing . Hopefully not. Reporter the uncertainty worries some republicans like new yorks peter king. I feel bad for the party that the crazyies have taken over. Reporter it could help explain why boehner was so emotional when he met the pope yesterday. The pope puts his arm around me and kind of pulls me to him and says, please, pray for me. Well, who am i to pray for the pope, but i did. Reporter conservative groups declared victory today saying boehner stood in the waive their principles and practiced the art of surrender. But the early favorite to replace him, scott, is his chief lieutenant, House Majority leader Kevin Mccarthy. Pelley nancy, thanks. And that takes us to john dickerson, our cbs news political director and anchor of face the nation. John, who is Kevin Mccarthy . Reporter capito well, Kevin Mccarthy is the House Majority leader from bakersfield, california. He was elected in 2006. Hes one of the people a lot of of folks ive talked to today are mentioning. Hes not as conservative as john boehner but he does have the number two spot which means he has a lot of relationships which gives him the strongest start in the race to replace boehner. Pelley and if mccarthy is elected by the membership, what will change . Reporter well, maybe not that much. To get elected, hes going to need support from that conservative bloc that john boehner was having trouble with. The next speaker faces basically the same challenge, whether its mccarthy or anyone else, from the conservative block who wants the speaker to be more assertive, and if that speaker isnt more assertive they wont support him when means we may be back in the same place in six months. Says one boehner apply, well be right back here in the same place, scott. Pelley john dickerson, thanks, john. And john will have the only live interview with Speaker Boehner. That is this sunday on face the nation. Marco rubio, who you just saw in nancys report, was speaking today at the conservative values voters summit. Donald trump, his rival for the republican president ial nomination, said this about rubio you have this clown, marco rubio ive been so nice to him. Ive been so nice. Ive been so nice. And then no but he was in favor of immigration, and he has been. He has been. It was the gang of eight. Pelley the multibillionaire frontrunner is harsh on his critics, and we asked him about that for incident. Why so thinskinned . I dont like lies. I dont mind a bad story. If you did a bad story on me for 60 minutes, if it were a fair story, i wouldnt be thinskinned at all. You know, some of the media is among the worst people ive ever met. And i mean a pretty good percentage is really a Terrible Group of people. They write lies. They write false stories. They know theyre false. It makes no difference. And, frankly, i dont call it thinskinned. Im angry. Pelley but a reporter asked you a couple of hard questions the first debate and the whole week after that its war on that reporter. Well, i dont think that was a fair question. Pelley an impression is created, though, that you like to disk it out but you cant attack a punch. Oh, i think i can take it. I can take it if its fair. Again, if people say things that are false, which happens a lot with me, if people say things that are false, i will fight like harder than anybody. Fido something wrong and that happens and they write a fair story that i did something wrong, theres nothing to fight about. I can handle that. Im a very honorable guy. I dont like lies. Pelley on 60 minutes this sunday, donald trump will talk to us about his tax plan, immigration, and replacing obamacare. And russian president Vladimir Putin will sit down with charlie rose.

One of the highlights of the popes visit to new york today was his visit to the National September 11 memorial. He placed a flower at one of the two waterfalls where the names of the nearly 3,000 victims are etched in bronze. Right now, the pope is celebrating mass at Madison Square garden, and chip reid is there. Chip. Reporter thats right, scott, he is inside the arena, and the mass has begun.

Inside the museum, francis solemnly viewed artifact artifam ground zero, including a bible found in the debris, opened to the passage, an eye for an eye. Bring your peace to our violent war. Reporter the pope also spoke at an Interfaith Service with leaders of other religions, including an imam and rabbi to remember the victims and honor the survivors. The family members show us their face of pain, he said, pain that leaves us speechless but that screams to heaven. Following his remarks, children with the young peoples chorus of new york city, sang a wellknown song of hope. Let there be peace on earth reporter at the conclusion of the service, the pope greeted each religious leader individually, in some cases in the manner fitting their religion, such as a bow or a sign made with the hands. Saturday morning, the pope will fly to philadelphia, where on sunday, he will celebrate a mass thats expected to attract more than a million people. Scott. Pelley chip reid reporting tonight. Chip, thank you. The pope follows the words of jesus, let the little children come to me. In east harmel, a Catholic School there, kids were bursting with prield as they told francis what they were studying and they taught him how to use a smart board or at least they tried to. They sang to francis as well, to his absolute delight. Then it was time for a oneman parade, and Elaine Quijano has that. Elaine.

He was penniless himself when he came to this country thick years ago. Hes just a great pope. It makes me cry sometimes when i see him because he just kind of is the man i admire the most. Reporter he and his wife, olga, who is catholic, were deeply moved by the popes visit. When he speaks, we dont feel like he speaks only to one faith. We feel like he speaks to all of us. Reporter scott, afterwards, we spoke to many people who say they understand fully now why pope francis is considered the peoples pope. Pelley the pope began his day admonishing World Leaders at the years largest gathering of the heads of state, the u. N. General assembly, and Margaret Brennan was there. Reporter after a warm greeting from World Leaders and dignitaries, pope francis scolded them for an explosion of global violence, particularly in the middle east and africa, conflicts he has likened to world war iii.
