With the regions Economic Future on the line, nearly half a Million People came together protesting the Central Government on saturday. The spanish Prime Minister Mariano Rajoy wants to dissolve the catalan Regional Government and to hold new elections. The Prime Minister says hes trying to protect spains economy. Catalonias president , though, called this an attack on democracy after a contested referendum that favored independence. The last time catalonias powers were taken away, spains wi was r a brutal dictatorship . What the catalans decided in elections, Spanish Government has canceled. So the Spanish Government with worst attack on the institutions and people of catalonia since francos decree. As we saw there, there been big protests on the streets of barcelona, thats where Erin Mclaughlin is today following this story. The Spanish Government has made its move. Politically what does the Catalan Government do next . Reporter right, george, in that address last night, catalan president says he has plans to call a special parliamentary session, what is going to happen at that session is unclear at this point. What is clear, though, he made very clear in that address last night. He is going to defend catalan institutions. So it would seem that all options are on the table. He could call for a snap election to try and slow the article 155 process down. He could also make a move towards formally declaring independence. We just dont know, we also dont have a timing for this session just yet. But it has to happen really before senate meets on friday, where the senate in spain is expected to approve the Prime Minister Mariano Rajoys extraordinary measures. You have this situation where one side potentially is moving further towards independence, the other side moving towards exerting emergency rule over this area, where all of this goes at this point, george, is pretty much anyones guess. Erin, at this point, how are people reacting there to the fact that for at least now the government is moving to pull the plug on catalonias autonomous rule . Reporter yeah, well, i was out among some of the protesters yesterday, they had this massive protest in the heart of barcelona, people there, many of them, had voted in referendum which is really at the center of all of this. They were telling me they just wanted to have their voices heard, they feel that madrid is not listening and some of the protesters are telling me theyre scared about what could happen next. Take a listen. We are going to resist in a specific way, but going to resist. We are scared and, like, nervous, for the time, and scared, nervous. Yeah, yeah, of course, of course. When you see helicopters here like ive been here, are they going to shoot or what . Now we need to express in the streets and were going to be here upstairs and free. The thing is, we tried so many times to talk with them, but they dont want to talk. As that protester pointed out there, there is no dialogue right now between catalonia and madrid. Something that the Catalan Government has pushed for, that the people of catalonia want, they want a dialogue, they want a third party mediator, rajoy ruling that out, and in his press conference yesterday, a journalist asking him, is there anything that the Catalan Government can do to stop the 155 process . He said the only thing that could stop it is the spanish senate. The senate is expected to approve his extraordinary measures on friday. So we just have to watch to see how this plays out politically. Erin mclaughlin live for us in barcelona, spain. Thank you. Lets delve deeper into this now with our European Affairs commentator dominick thomas. Pleasure to have you with us. Lets talk about the Political Risk the Central Government faces by moving to exert direct rule over catalonia. Could this indeed back fire on the Prime Minister . I think that the Prime Minister has completely misread and miscalculated the situation here. Not only has he triggered article 155, but hes also been working behind the scenes to enlist cross Party Support so when he goes to the senate, and he will essentially be able to put this into action, the king of spain, which is really quite remarkable, this is, after all, a constitutional monarchy, and for the second time spain has spoken out, the king has spoken out on this particular issue, and he has the support of the European Union. This, i believe, has given the separatists exactly what they want. In other words, it is the narrative that madrid is overreaching in the region and these latest decisions,on the heels of as we saw the Police Violence that repressed people going to the polls, political leaders that are still being held in prison, the police chief in catalonia has been threatened, and essentially now rajoy is going to put the region into receivership. Lets talk about article 155, never been utilized before. What exactly does direct rule look like . What Immediate Impact might it have on peoples everyday lives . Well, the extraordinary thing that you mentioned is this never has really been done, it is a complex document, somewhat vague in many ways, but as far as rajoy is concerned, there is no ambiguity in the document. It gives Central Government of madrid the powers to go into the region and to take control of it, essentially to put it in receivership, to oversee the operations in conjunction with that, hes also talked about removing the current leadership and, which has been, of course, democratically elected, and then allow a ministry in madrid to come in and control the region. And day to day actions, economic oversight, and so on. So essentially takes away their total capacity to be able to function autonomously and this is galvanizing the local population, even those that were not in support of the referendum find this profoundly undemocratic and disturbing. When it comes to economics, lets follow the money trail here, what are the economic consequences for catalonia . Will the portion of catalonias tax revenue that would regularly support local government now go to the National Government in madrid . No, not at this stage. Theyre not going to take away their funding, theyre going to oversee the management of the region. The economic aspect is already significant because many businesses, banks and so on, are relocating to elsewhere in spain because they are afraid that independence will one day go through, which would mean catalonia was no longer part of the European Union and also rajoy, when he came to power, you know, a few years ago, spain was in a terrible Economic Situation and it managed to lift itself out of the recession, it is an incredibly important region, it is destabilizing to the region and the national economy. This is something that rajoy is underestimating, let alone the destabilizing aspects for the European Union in a broader context. This has never been done before, and if history is a guide, the last timethat catalonia was under direct rule, that was under a dictatorship. Catalonias president has pointed to that fact as context and push for independence. Given the governments latest move here, what would you surmise his next move might be and does he have any recourse . He doesnt really have any recourse, except to preempt the government and call Regional Elections himself, that would slow down the process, something that is part of article 155, if the region goes for early elections and it will calm things down. What hes pushing for here is for some kind of broad remediation, an opportunity to sit down with madrid and talk this out and i think this is rajoys responsibility. Hes the Prime Minister, hes the leader. And hes taking spain down a very, very dangerous road here, a road that in fact is starting to look like the European Union is going to have to deal with this and that it will pale in comparison to some of the issues it is dealing with brexit. This is rajoys responsibility as Prime Minister to not drive his country into this appalling political crisis. Well have to see what happens next. Thank you so much for your time. Thank you. Scenes of sadness in the u. S. State of florida. For the family of a u. S. Soldier who was killed in combat overseas. Heart breaking. This is the burial ceremony and the final resting place for Army Sergeant la David Johnson. Just 25 years old, he was killed earlier this month when his unit was ambushed by isis in niger. Three other american soldiers were also killed in that fire fight. Two of them were members of the Armys Special forces, the green berets. U. S. Congresswoman Frederica Wilson also attended that service, she knew johnson and his family personally and was the one who told reporters what President Trump said in his condolence call to the family. That Sergeant Johnson knew what he signed up for. Wilson said those words had offended the family and johnsons mother later confirmed that, but the white house spent the last week alternating between denying that the words were ever said and impassioned defenses of those words. And the near constant attacks on wilson continued saturday, on twitter, the president tweeting, the congresswoman was wacky just hours before the funeral. He did not mention johnson himself, he did not mention the ambush that killed him. Lets break all this down, james davis, james is the dean of economics and Political Science at the university of st. Gallon in munich, germany. Nice to have you with perspective on all of this. On the day of the funeral, the president had two options, to offer condolence to the soldiers family, to remain silent, but rather President Trump chose a third option, to go to twitter, to tweet about this congresswoman calling her wacky, before a funeral. President trump actually gave some insight into how he uses twitter in an interview with fox business. Lets listen. We can talk about this in a moment. I doubt i would be here if it werent for social media to be honest with you. I have a tremendous platform. When someone says something about me, i go, bing, bing, bing and take care of it. The other way, i would never get the word out. The president going Bing Bing Bing on twitter today or yesterday tweeting before this funeral. He decided to put this out the day before the funeral. The question here, who is the president s audience when he goes to twitter with this, certainly not the victims families. Who is he talking to with these . I think the president is, again, trying to rally his base. Hes stuck at 37 in the polls, and needs to keep that base motivated, needs to keep that base behind him. Hes certainly not talking to a broader section of the american population, who is grieving with the family of la David Johnson, Sergeant Johnson, who is thankful to him for his offer of his life, thankful to his family, and grieving with his widow. Thats not the audience that this president is talking to, rather hes again throwing red meat to his base, and i guess he i thinks thats essential at this point because hes certainly not expanding the base through his policies or through the approach to governing that hes chosen to take. President trump certainly taking a very different position, different than his predecessors, he doesnt seem to seek their counsel as we have seen the president s before him. Just this week, we saw former president s george w. Bush and barack obama on stage expressing their concerns about the direction the United States is headed, concerns that are at odds with President Trump. Do those voices of experience matter for a president who is now been on the job for some ten months . This president is convinced he knows how to govern, he knows how to conduct business deals better than anybody else probably better than anybody else who has ever walked the face of the earth. Thats his shtick, thats his approach to leadership if you want to call it that. This isnt surprising in any sense. The question is, is the fact that former president george w. Bush has come out and very forcefully spoken against trumpism, his approach to politics, approach to governance, is the fact that the former president with, again, without naming names, president obama comes out and criticizes the approach to governance that divides rather than unifies the country, that seeks to put a stake between us rather than a bridge between us, that does that discourse, does that activism of the former president s start to change the relationship of the president and the congress, does it provide some cover for those in congress who may be also sharing the concerns, but so far have been unwilling or unable to speak out against it. Thats the open question. I think the fact that the republican president has come out so forcefully on the heels of the very important speech of senator mccain, does create a space for honorable members of the Republican Party, who are concerned about the divisiveness of the first months of the Trump Presidency to say, mr. President , lets take a different tack here, lets change the nature of the discussion. James davis, context and perspective, live for us, thank you for your time today. We mentioned former president s all five living former u. S. President s were together in the u. S. State of texas saturday for a rare joint appearance. Barack obama, george w. Bush, bill clinton, george h. W. Bush, and jimmy carter, they all came together to attend the benefit concert for hurricane victims in the states of texas, florida and throughout the caribbean. As of saturday night, organizers say they raised at least 31 million. And brief remarks, the former leaders praised americans for coming together. As heart breaking as the tragedies that took place here in texas and in florida and puerto rico and the u. S. Virgin islands have been, what we have also seen is the spirit of america at its best. When ordinary people step up and do extraordinary things. The heart of america. Without regard to race or religion, or political party, is greater than our problems. I am here to urge you to give to this fine fund and i want to thank all of the volunteers, but i am here for another reason, i speak for the folks right here when i say we really admire and love george h. W. Bush. The current President Donald Trump did not attend the concert, but did appear in a video message. As we begin to rebuild, some of americas finest Public Servants are spearheading the one america appeal. Through this effort, all five living former president s are playing a tremendous role in helping our fellow citizens recover. To president s jimmy carter, george h. W. Bush, bill clinton, george w. Bush, and barack obama, melania and i want to express our deep gratitude for your tremendous assistance. Voting is under way in japan right now. And there is a lot on the line for the Prime Minister of that nation, shinzo abe. The record he could break with a win in the polls. Im an outdoorsman. So ive asked chase sapphire reserve cardmembers to find my next vacation. Chile, whats going on . Im at the el tatio geysers. Geezer. Geyser. Geezer. Geyser. Enough. Geezer. Whoaa, wooooo. Dude, be careful. I think you should come camping. Why would i camp in the atacama desert . Oh. 3x points on travel and restaurants on every continent. Sapphire reserve, from chase. Make more of whats yours. If yand constipation,ling and youre overwhelmed by everything youve tried all those laxatives, daily probiotics, endless fiber it could be wearing on you. Tell your doctor what youve tried, and how long youve been at it. Linzess works differently from laxatives. Linzess treats adults with ibs with constipation or chronic constipation. It can help relieve your belly pain and lets you have more frequent and complete bowel movements that are easier to pass. Do not give linzess to children less than six and it should not be given to children six to less than eighteen. It may harm them. Dont take linzess if you have a bowel blockage. Get immediate help if you develop unusual or severe stomach pain, especially with bloody or black stools. The most common side effect is diarrhea, sometimes severe. If its severe, stop taking linzess and call your doctor right away. Other side effects include gas, stomacharea pain and swelling. Talk to your doctor about managing your symptoms proactively with linzess. Patients they ask me all of the time. I tell them the thickness of your enamel determines essentially how white your teeth are going to be. The strength of your teeth needs to be there in order for that whiteness to last. I would definitely recommend pronamel strong and bright to my patients to keep their enamel strong, help to keep stains away, and polish their enamel. Theyre going to get whiter, brighter teeth. This is a really great product for my patients. Just about two hours left for voters in japan to cast their ballots. The country is holding a snap general election. It is expected to secure shinzo abes position as japans longest serving post war Prime Minister. Mr. Abe called for the vote in september, he hopes to get a strong mandate to keep taking tough stances on north korea, which sent Ballistic Missiles flying over japan in recent months. Translator now together with the international community, we have to put the highest possible pressure on north korea. We will create a society where everyone can have a dream, a society where people young and old can feel safe. Lets cross over live to our journalist there live. This could be a game changer for mr. Abe. It could be. I think with early polls showing that it could be a big victory for Prime Minister, shinzo abe, i think it might in the end turn up to redefine his legacy of not only as the longest serving Prime Minister in the post war period, but in fact what he does with the japanese constitution, which has been the pacifist one throughout the post war period. He made it clear he wants to change that. Some polling stations here in japan are closing early because of the very powerful typhoon that is approaching. But a lot of people took advantage of the early Voting System to come out in record numbers. And i think that highlights the high level of interest there is among the japanese public here, and probably the biggest reason for that is the threat for north korea. If you have months after months of launches of missiles from north korea, some of them flying over japan, you have threats from north korea to sink japan and the Prime Minister shinzo abe tried to portray himself and his Coalition Government as the steady pair of hands on deck that can deal with this threat. And i think if he does win big, if he does win a super majority, which is twothirds of the seat, he is bound to try and push forward with a reinterpretation of the constitution to give the Japanese Military a greater role. This has been a controversial one, but that one that is gaining a little bit more momentum as the threat from north korea intensified in 2017. And i think that in itself will be a big test for the Prime Minister, but should he win big, it should be a big reassurance for the u. S. , especially ahead of the visit by u. S. President donald trump. Talk about the weather situation there. Generally is there a concern that weather could impact the voter turnout . There is. I think the latest numbers for this afternoon show that the turnout is a little bit lower than it has today than in the previous election for the lower house, the house of representatives. And that that might impact the swing vote, those not yet decided until the last minute who to vote for, that could affect the how the opposition fares and opposition has been pretty much imploding ahead of the election. So that would translate to a bigger win for the ldp. And as i say, because of the torrential rains and some of the western parts of the country already as this big typhoon approaches the mainland, some polling stations have decided to close early ahead of the official close. Supposed to be two hours or just under two hours time. So in the end, it might affect the swing vote, which could play in favor for the Prime Minister shinzo abe. Live for us in tokyo, thank you for the roaring. Lets bring in derek van dam, our meteorologist following the situation. You heard her talking about the fact that weather certainly may be playing a role in lower voter turnout as of now. Well see how this all plays out, but a big storm headed that way. This happened before in japan, back in 1979, the month of october, they had an election and 100 millimeters of rain or four inches of rain fell in tokyo. That actually decreased voter turnout by 10 Percentage Points compared to the two previous elections before that. So will it happen this time around . Time will tell. Look at the storm impacting japan as we speak. Good news here, just as i anticipated, the storm is weakening as it approaches the mainland of japan, still the outer rain bands of the system bringing heavy rainfall, potential for flooding, landslides and mudslides. 215 kilometer per hour sustained winds, this thing is a behemoth, but becoming more and more disorganized as time goes on. There are open ocean swells measured at over 40 feet. That is going to cause coastal damage across this area as the system approaches mainland japan overnight and into the day on monday. By the way, toyota disrupting or closing some of its plants temporarily for the day on monday as the system comes through, as a precaution. It will exit quickly on tuesday and the sun will shine, look a completely different day. Look at the rainfall totals going forward. We have experienced over 200 millimeters in the southern sections of japan. Another 100 to 200 millimeters in the forecast. Going to quickly talk about that is happening in southern california. Nearly 15 Million People under a high fire threat throughout the course of the day today. Santa ana winds picking up in intensity from today through tuesday. We have a high fire danger in that region and, george, putting this all into perspective with the recent fires in northern and central california, the United States has had 16 1 billion or more disasters since the beginning of the year. Wow. Derek van dam, thank you. President trump may have has had many fights, picked many fights, political fights in his career, that is.

Im George Howell with the headlines were following for you this hour. Catalan leaders are condemning the Spanish Government for moving to clamp down on the regions independence movement. Madrid wants to dissolve catalonias Regional Government and to hold new elections. The catalan president says his people have won the right to break away after holding a referendum which madrid calls unconstitutional. Shinzo abe is looking to become japans longest serving Prime Minister since world war ii. That country voting now in snap elections. A win for mr. Abe could reenergize his push to revise japans pacifist constitution. The u. S. Secretary of state Rex Tillerson is in saudi arabia for talks with king solomon and iraqi leaders. On the agenda, the growing influence of iran in the middle east, qatari sanctions and the ongoing war taking place in yemen. A sad scene in the u. S. State of florida, Army Sergeant la David Johnson laid to rest near his home on saturday. President donald trump took to twitter a few hours before the funeral service, but did not mention johnson and instead took another swipe at the congresswoman who first reported mr. Trumps condolence call to the family. It is a matter of fact that the u. S. President donald trump struggles with the truth, but it is worth asking where that tendency comes from. Gloria borger looks into that. Reporter in his decades of public life, President Trump has never had any trouble getting himself into the spotlight. But once there, sticking to the facts is a different story. Perfect crowd sizes on day one we had a massive field of people, you saw them. Packed. It went all the way back to the washington monument. Reporter to his party just this week the Republican Party is very, very unified. Reporter but trumps problems with accuracy go back decades, to the building and selling of trump tower, where barbara rez managed the construction. He planted that princess di was looking for an apartment in trump tower. Reporter and that didnt happen . No. But it made the papers. Reporter sure. So it was getting the buzz out there about trump. Did you laugh at it or yeah. It was nothing so terrible about it, it was kind of like puffing, you know, like exaggerating. Reporter tony swartz, coauthor of trumps art of the deal, has a name for this. I came up with this phrase truthful hyperbole, which is, you know, i called it an innocent form of exaggeration. Now, i can call something that i actually sold for 2 million, i can say 10 million and that becomes truthful hyperbole. The problem is that there is no such thing as truthful hyperbole. The truth is the truth. Hyperbole is a lie. They dont go together. Reporter and they didnt go together during the troubled opening of trumps Atlantic City taj mahal casino in 1990, when some of the slots didnt work. When the Casino Control Commission went down there on opening day to check out that all the things had been done, many things hadnt been done. They shut down a third of the slots. Reporter slots that were critical to the casinos success. The slots are the prime revenue producer of the casino. To shut down the third on opening day because both humiliating and financially disastrous. It was only done because he doesnt have an organization in depth. Reporter that wasnt the story trump told. Something could go bad, like the opening of the taj, and he would say, it is because we had so much business here that this happened. Not that the systems broke down, not that we didnt know what we were doing, we had so much business it broke down. Truly he would just lie about everything. Reporter and he did. What about the slot machine thing where they were the slots were so hot, nobody, again, nobody has seen people play that hard and that fast. It blew out the slots . We had machines that they were virtually donald is so wrapped up in hyperbole, it is almost constant lies. Whether it is the littlest things where, you know, if you had 2,000 people at an event, he would say there were 5,000 people at an event. Reporter and he got away with it. There is no belief system. If it will work, i will say it. If it stops working, ill say it is opposite and i will not feel any come punks about saying it is opposite because i dont believe anything in the first place. Seeing it from his perspective doesnt make a distinction between what is true and whats false. His only distinction is what will work and what will not work . Reporter and what happens when hes challenged with facts . What does he do . He has a genius, you know, perverse genius for turning any situation into something that is evidence of his brilliance. Even if it is not true. Reporter truthful or not, it is a habit that has gotten him all the way to the white house. Gloria borger, cnn, washington. Florigloria, thank you. New details about another Sexual Harassment settlement involving bill oreilly, a former fox news host reportedly paid 32 million to a long time Network Analyst and all of this happened a month before the company renewed his 25 million a year contract. Oreilly spokesman responded to the claims by saying that the information was provided by Anonymous Sources and is false and defamatory. Brian stelter looks into it. Reporter 32 million, a staggering sum of money, the amount of money that bill oreilly paid to a long time legal analyst on fox news, lis wiehl, when wiehl came forward with allegations. Wiehl agreed to the payout and disavowed the claims that she made against oreilly, all this happened privately back in january, but the timeline here is remarkable. Because just a couple of weeks after the settlement, the 32 million settlement, fox news went ahead and renewed bill oreillys contract. He was making about 25 million a year at fox. But he didnt last very long at the network. As im sure you recall, in april, the New York Times reported on other settlements by oreilly to other women accusing them of harassment. Those settlements were smaller sums of money, but the revelation about them caused advertisers to flee from his show and caused fox news to cancel the show, all that happening a few weeks back in april. But now, in the wake of the Harvey Weinstein scandal, in a conversation across the United States, about Sexual Harassment in workplaces, the New York Times published this new story about this 32 million settlement and that price tag is really astonishing to a lot of people. You know, Harvey Weinstein reportedly paid accusers 50 or 100,000, bill oreilly paid small sums of money to other accusers. But the idea that he was willing to pay 32 million to a single accuser is really shocking and causing a lot of people to wonder why fox news was willing to renew his contract at all. Here is what fox says. It says it didnt know exactly how much money was given over. According to the company, when the company renewed the contract in february, it knew that Sexual Harassment lawsuit had been threatened against him by lis wiehl, but informed he settled the matter personally. Thats the official word from rupert murdoch. Two Big Questions moving forward for fox, number one, will this affect the ongoing u. S. Federal investigation into fox news . Remember, the department of justice already has been looking into how settlement payments were paid to accusers of roger ailes who was also caught up in his own harassment scandal last year. Ailes passed away a number of months ago, but the Ongoing Investigation is looking into foxs conduct in the matter. Thats one issue for the murdoches. The other big issue is involving the sky deal, the ongoing attempt to buy up the rest of the british Satellite Network sky. It had a hard time getting the deal through because of scandals back in the United States. And it would seem that this latest revelation about bill oreilly will only complicate matters even more for the sky deal. Brian stelter, cnn, new york. The New York Times is responding to bill oreilly spokesman who said the newspaper maliciously smeared the former fox news host. A spokesman for the newspaper says this, mr. Fabiani addresses everything, but what the story actually says, this article like our previous reporting on the subject is accurate and deeply reported and we welcome and challenge to the facts the affidavit he claims our story ignored is, quote, in our article twice. Still ahead, kurds protest the United States in iraqi kurdistan, why theyre so angry with their ally against isis. Stay with us. My advice for looking younger, longer . Get your beauty sleep.

The syrian city of raqqah is liberated and the u. S. President says the u. S. Will soon begin a new phase in the country. He said saturday that washington will pursue peace and support local Security Forces and he added, quote, we have made a long side our Coalition Partners more progress against the evil terrorists in the past several months than in the past several years, end quote. Earlier in the week, mr. Trump also appeared to take credit for the raqqah operation, told a radio host, isis wasnt on the run before he was president. And he changed the military rules of engagement. His comments come as many raqqah residents seek to rebuild that city, the city left in ruins, after many years there, three years of isis control. Iraqi kurds are protesting after iraq seized control of the oil rich city of kirkuk earlier this week. The demonstrators are angry that the u. S. For taking a neutral stand on the dispute despite the fact that they worked with the kurds. Ben wedeman is in erbil following the story. Ben, many people there making their feelings very clear about the current u. S. President. Reporter yes indeed, george. Really this normally is traditionally very friendly territory for the United States. I was here in erbil the day baghdad fell in april 2003 to the u. S. Led coalition and there were people waving american flags on the street, praising president george w. Bush, late last year we did a story about a fighter who named his son trump. So this is normally on sort of before last week, essentially, this was an area of the middle east where americans were welcomed and were appreciated by many of the people, however, within the last week with the fall of kirkuk to the government in baghdad, and the United States standing on the sideline in this conflict, the love affair between the United States and kurdistan has gone cold. Noisy demonstrations from the western Diplomatic Mission is run of the mill at least, but in the kurdish iraqi capital of erbil, it is a first. In the almost 15 years ive been covering events in iraqi kurdistan, this is a first for me and antiamerican demonstration. It is not necessarily an expression of anger as much as it is disappointment that the kurds have been let down by a country they thought was their friend. Kurdish forces played a Critical Role in the war against isis, but since the kurds voted for independence from iraq last month, since the Central Governments takeover of the disputed oil rich province of kirkuk last monday, suddenly the kurds are once again alone, facing a combination of Iraqi Government forces armed and trained by the United States and the iranianbacked Popular Mobilization units, the irony is not lost here. Why we have been attacked by the american weapons and the hands of shia militia supported by iraq. Reporter the american consulate was never in danger, well protected as it was by kurdish riot police, the protest was peaceful. But the words were heated, especially when talk turned to u. S. President donald trump, who during the campaign pledged his support for the kurds but now the u. S. Stands neutral in the clash between baghdad and erbil. Trump lied to the kurdish people, says an engineer, america lied to the kurdish people. We had hopes in trump. But now we dont know what happened. Reporter what happened was the government in baghdad and every country in the middle east opposed the vote for kurdish independence. Noisy though it was, the protest may be falling on deaf ears. And, of course, there are other demonstrations going on here. Yesterday, there was one outside the u. N. , one outside the iranian consulate where they tore down the flag, and this afternoon we are expecting another demonstration outside the russian consulate. George . Is there a way out of this . Reporter there is a possibility. Baghdad has expressed a desire to open a dialogue with the kurdish Regional Government, and the kurdish Regional Government has expressed a similar desire and the United States said that it would like to play a role as intermediary between the two, but there are more than those players involved. The iranians who played a role in directly in the Iraqi Government takeover of kirkuk may have other ideas and they have a lot of influence on the government in baghdad, so i think the will is there, it is the question of the way to resolve this conflict. And thats anybodys guess. Ben wedeman, thank you so much, live for us in erbil, iraq. Still ahead, the u. S. President likes to call things that he doesnt like fake, but now art critics are using that word against something he owns right back there, why an Art Institute is calling President Trumps renoir a knockoff.

President donald trump says he plans to allow the release of the last secret files on the assassination of former president john f. Kennedy in 1963. Experts and i had storia s and expect any evidence, but the documents could reveal details about a trip to mexico city that oswald took weeks before that assassination. It is possible that President Trump could keep some of the documents classified for National Security reasons. President trump likes calling things that he doesnt like fake, but this time, art critics are using that word against something that he owns, a famous painting that he claims is an original. Cnns jeanne moos has this report. Reporter forget about fake news. Reporter were talking about fake art. Is that really a renoir in the president s trump tower apartment . Visible in the background as melania did an interview. What annoys him . What does he get mad about . Stupidity. Reporter back when time obrien was writing his book, trump nation, the art of being the donald, the renoir was hanging there. I said thats an original renoir, i said no, it is not, donald. He said, thats the original renoir. I said, it is not. I grew up in chicago. That renoir is called two sisters on a terrace, and it is hanging on a wall at the Art Institute of chicago. Reporter the Art Institute confirms it has been there since it was donated by this art collector in 1933. The institute told the Chicago Tribune were satisfied that our version is real. Now the president s renoir is being referenced in quotes, called a fake in various languages, the butt of jokes. His is signed by renoir, so it is all good. The painting was popping all all over. I have one too, got mine at the gift shop at the Art Institute of chicago. Before the election, two sister oz on a terrace hovered over an interview. Without a doubt, trump bought a forgery, but the master huckster could never admit he was swindled. He believes his own lies.
