Businesses, homes and streets are being flooded. The wind has brought down power lines and trees, tens of thousands of people are without power, a man in philadelphia was and the water, there are people who are still very grateful that the temperatures remain above freezing.

Donald trump has vowed to eradicate isis militants, but its an enormous challenge. For these Iraqi Special forces, recapturing Mosul University was a symbolic victory. [gunfire] thousands of iraqi soldiers have thought to have lost their lives in mosul, some in the battle to reclaim this sprawling complex, including a wellstocked Chemistry Lab where militants invented new types of bombs.

Fplaying the above the overpass. Isis still holds western parts of the city. We spoke with Lieutenant GeneralAbdulwahab Al saadi, who told us hes counting on more support what do you need most . We need air strikes, the general said. We need more equipment, including drones.

But the general told us the iraqi army still needs more help. For those in mosul exhausted by the fighting, thats the last answer they wanted to hear. In a sign of how difficult these battles are, scott, we werent allowed anywhere near the Chemistry Lab because we were told isis left a building booby trapped.

By any measure the womens extraordinary, more than a million turned out in cities around the country and the world to oppose the agenda of president donald trump. So what happens next . Heres dean reynolds. Reporter organizers of chicagos weekend protests expected 20,000 marchers to show up. Actually 250,000 did, so many that police had to cancel a planned march because the streets were too clogged. And yet in the cold gray light of this monday morning, one question lingers about what took place. So the demonstration is over. What now . Time to get active in your community on every level. Reporter liz radford, Jessica Scheller and Ann Scholhamer cochaired the chicago gathering that had been building since the election and is now a staple on social media. I think its unfortunate that things have to get really bad sometimes before it gets better, but sometimes when you push somebody to the edge, thats when they finally d even if we have to do this every year or every month to get people together, to reenergize them, then i guess im in. We will not go away. Reporter the 2018 midterm elections will be a primary focus, they say, safeguarding reproductive rights, preserving health care and protecting immigrants are just three motivating issues for something thats still too new to be called a movement. A lot of the issues that we are talking about right now are american issues. Reporter for now they intend to press congress on mr. Trumps cabinet and Supreme Court choices. Was this a protest against the president . I think for many people it was. I think in some measure it was a protest on a grander scale about the mindset that put the president into office. We want our presence known. We want him to understand that were a very powerful demographic voting bloc, and that we need to influence policy. A lot of work to do, scott, because as powerful as they hope to be, they are well aware that last fall they lacked the organization and the votes to defeat donald trump. Dean reynolds in chicago, thanks. Up next, smoldering smartphones. Samsung says mystery solved. I checked, everythings there. Wait a minute. Hey. Hold on, i can explain. You better have a good answer. Switch to geico and you could save a ton of money on your Car Insurance. Why didnt you say so in the first place . I thought yous was wearing a wire. Haha, what .

Both wound up in a houston hospital. He with pneumonia, she with bronchitis. Even when mrs. Bush was well enough to go home yesterday, she said no, shed stay one more day to be with her husband, the former president. They kind of get after each other. Somebody is being noncompliant patient, the other says no, no, you need to do that. Mrs. Bush went home today after doctors said mr. Bush was well enough to leave the icu. The bushes have been married longer than any first couple, 72 years this month. They truly are the most humble people. Today, when i told them that, you know, any words of advice, im going to go talk to the press. He said about what . I said about you. He said, people want to know about me . Mr. Bush wanted to go home today. Doctors told him that wouldnt samsung says its figured out what caused the batteries on some galaxy note 7 smartphones to catch fire. Heres kris van cleave. Reporter it was overheating incidents like these that prompted a worldwide recall and monthslong investigation by 700 samsung engineers. 200,000 plus devices and more than 30,000 lithiumion batteries were tested. Samsung found a design defect, incorrect battery placement in the upper right corner caused the first wave of problems. Then some replacement devices had a manufacturing error, an abnormal weld that led to internal short circuits. Dan ackerman from cnet. Two different defects from two different batteries from two different suppliers, and you end up with the same problem in both cases, which is what seemed so unbelievable about this case. Reporter in the u. S. , samsung received 13 reports of burns, 37 reports of property damage, and in all, 96 reports of overheating batteries. The vast majority of chargeable devices are powered by lithium ion batteries, known for their high output and low cost. Are these batteries safe . Or are we packing too much power into a small thing . They are safe conceptually, but were asking them to do more than ever in more tightly products. So theyre pushing the boundaries of what these batteries can physically do. Reporter there have been other products like ecigarettes overheating and catching fire and about a half million hoverboards were recalled last summer because faulty battery packs could overheat and in some cases catch fire. Airlines including alaska and Virgin America are now stocking burn bags like these that can contain a lithiumion fire. Samsung also announced a new eightpoint safety check of batteries that includes xraying for abnormalities. Scott, of the 3 million note 7s sold, 96 have been returned. That leaves about 120,000 unaccounted for worldwide. Kris van cleave with the followup for us tonight. Kris, thank you. Thats the overnight news for this tuesday. For some of you the news continues. For others, check back with us for the morning news and be sure not to miss cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im jericka duncan. Week one of the Trump Administration got off to a busy start. The president met with Union Leaders and ordered a freeze on hiring some federal workers. Mr. Trump took the first step to pull out of the Transpacific Partnership trade agreement, and dismissed the latest lawsuit against him. Margaret brennan begins our coverage. All right. Were going to sign three memorandums right now. Reporter with the stroke of his pen, donald trump took three executive actions. Reinstating a reagan era ban on extending foreign aid to any oversees group that supports abortion rights. Ordering a federal hiring freeze, except within the free trade deal with 11 asia pacific countries. Great thing for the American Worker. Reporter mr. Trump said hed instead negotiate with countries one on one and told a gathering of ceos that hed reduce regulations and cut taxes, but punish them for shipping jobs overseas. If that happens, we are going to be imposing a very major border tax on the product when it comes in, which i think is fair. I believe that we have to be honest with the American People. Reporter White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer tried to reset relations with the peace corps after calling the media dishonest on saturday. This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration period, both in person and around the globe. Reporter spicer claimed photos of trumps swearing in were intentionally framed to minimize the crowd. Today he explained he was actually referring to total viewership online, on tv and in person. He also admitted the data on attendees was incomplete. I think sometimes we can disagree with the facts. There are certain things that we may not fully understand when we come out, but our intention is never to lie to you. Reporter but the Trump White House continues to insist the president is treated unfairly by the press, particularly regarding his relationship with the cia, which he visited on saturday. I love you. I respect you. Theres nobody i respect more. Youre going to do a fantastic job. Reporter before assuming office, mr. Trump brushed off the intelligence communitys conclusion of Russian Election meddling by saying these are the same people that said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, and he accused intelligence officials of leaking an unsubstantiated dossier about his ties to russia. Thats something that nazi germany would have done and did do. I think its a disgrace. That information that was false and fake and never happened got released to the public. Reporter scott, today the Trump Organization released a letter showing that the day before inauguration President Trump resigned from the company that bears his name along with more than 400 entities. Trumps National Security adviser Michael Flynn is coming under fire for his contacts with kremlin leaders before mr. Trump took office. Jeff pegues has that. Reporter when President Trump left cia headquarters saturday, a couple of steps behind him was his National Security adviser, retired general Michael Flynn. Cbs news has learned that u. S. Investigators have been looking into at least one phone call in late december between flynn and russias ambassador to the United States, serge kislyak. The call came just as the Obama Administration expelled dozens of Russian Diplomats. On dem suggested on Russian Television that the kremlin would retaliate by expelling american diplomats, but shortly thereafter, president Vladimir Putin sent out a note saying that he would not kick u. S. Diplomats out of the country and instead talked about restoring russianu. S. Relations based on the policies of the Trump Administration. President elect trump then responded in a tweet, great move on delay by v. Putin. I always knew he was very smart. Investigators are trying to determine whether the trump team was coordinating with the russians leading up to and after the election. So far sources say they have found no evidence of wrongdoing. Today White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer said the call between flynn and the Russian Ambassador covered four topics. One was the loss of life that occurred in the plane crash that took their military choir. Two was christmas and holiday greetings. Three was to talk about a conference in syria on isis. And four was to set up, to talk about after the inauguration setting up a call between president putin and President Trump. Reporter flynn is not the only trump associate being scrutinized. Investigators are also trying to determine if others shared sensitive u. S. Information with russia, including corporate trade secrets, and if any criminal laws were broken. The white house says President Trump is ready to work with russia to defeat the Islamic State in iraq and syria. The terror groups last major stronghold in iraq is the city of mosul, half of which is now in the hands of the government. Charlie dagata is there. Reporter it has taken three long and bloody months to get this far, on an eerie drive through mosul, the destruction became worse the closer we got to the weapons factory. Donald trump has vowed to eradicate isis, but its an enormous challenge. For these Iraqi Special forces, recapturing Mosul University was a symbolic victory. Thousands of iraqi soldiers are thought to have lost their lives in mosul, some to reclaim this complex, where militants invented new types of bombs. Aside from the obvious trail of destruction left behind, there are still signs of the isis occupation, including these flags. Isis still holds western marts of the city. We spoke with Lieutenant General al sadi who told us hes counting on more support from President Trump. What do you need most . We need air strikes, the general id we need more equipment, including drones. That might be a tough sell with the new president , given that the United States has launched countless air strikes in the assault on mosul, and spent millions retraining and arming iraqi forces. But the general told us the iraqi army still needs more help. For those in mosul, exhausted by the fighting, thats the last answer they wanted to hear.

Living well after one of the most divisive campaigns in u. S. History, President Trump is vowing to bring america together. That may prove to be a tall order. If our new series, we the people we spoke to americans from different political backgrounding about their hopes and fears. Here they are, in their own words. Im steven. Im ceasar. Im leo. Im hally, a special Education Teacher in ohio, and i voted for Hillary Clinton. Its a small town, blue collar. Weve always been a democratic stronghold. I didnt understand why so many people would vote for him. It just felt like a joke. Like this was the best pick of a man with no political experience, who is abrasive, brash, mocks people that arent like him. Since trumps won the presidency, in a lot of ways, i feel like i cant express what i really feel. I cant express im ungrateful, because suddenly im the bigot. I grew up in a christian home. My dad always taught me the value of hard work. Im beginning my own business with heavy equipment. Im really excited for whats to come with this new administration and new economy. And we will make America Great again. I voted for donald trump because i believe that he represents the best option for creating an ecosystem where my children can prosper. I felt that Hillary Clinton was presenting a picture and some of capitalism was bad. And i believe that wall street can never, ever be allowed to wreck main street again. The market is booming. And i believe a lot of that is because of Donald Trumps presence there. I dont deny that donald trump used the art of rhetoric, the art of influence with word, and the art of tickling peoples emotions, i dont deny that. But how he governs is a whole different thing. Theyre screaming, build the wall, before trump. Were going to build the wall. When donald trump says things, its not president ial. Two, its not what this nation is about. I was born in mexico, and im gra immigrated to the u. S. When i was 5 years old. I remember crossing over and being in a whole new world. I felt like any typical american kid. Im the first attorney to be allowed to prae state being undocumented. I think that everybody should have the opportunity to work hard and make something of themselves, but thats what it takes, hard work. America is not built on free handouts. When i was 20, i had to have brain surgery. I was told that i had a year to live. Thus ive had to have, you know, Specialized Health care, and im going into starting my own business. Im responsible for my own insurance. Weve got to get rid of obamacare. I really hope that donald trump will work on the obamacare problem. My moms on obamacare, the Affordable Care act. Obviously hes going the repeal it, so shes going to lose her health insurance. He said hes going to replace it immediately afterward. Im proud to be an american i dont understand how the United States can vote for a man whose rhetoric is so hateful. Look at my africanamerican over here. Look at him. Are you the great snes i dont believe hes a racist, no. Cultural communicator in the world. The reason i do the work is to bring better ideas to the public square, across race. But ive received lots of backlash because of my support for trump. I am going to bring your jobs back to america. I think that donald trump does increase the number of jobs that are available in america, that this will be a great boone to the selfesteem of our country. Anyone who has entered the United States illegally is subject to deportation. One of the fears i do have is that i could be subject to deportation any day. My family, many of them are residents or u. S. Citizens. We have a broken immigration system that is going to separate families, american families. You cant trust him with a cell phone. How are we going to trust him with Nuclear Launch codes . A lot of people are like, hes going button. My response to that is, you know what . Hes not, because hes surrounded by a great team. Working together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation. My biggest hope is that the American People will reflect on what makes us great, which is our immigrant background, our diversity, and our strength to overcome challenges. I hope that he works closely with democrats and republicans in bipartisan ways to further the country. Do i agree with everything he does . No. Did i vote for him . No. But i live in america. Im an american. Of course i want him to succeed. Because if he succeeds, our country succeeds. Toilet germs dont jt disinfect with lysol bathroom trigger. And lysol power foamer. They kill 99. 9 of germs. To clean and disinfect your bathroom. Lysol that. Ok, it says you apply the blue okone to me. Y this. Here . No. Ah ok, here . Maybe you should read the directions.

Nearly 70 years ago, the Mcdonald Brothers revolutionized the Restaurant Business and pretty much created the fast food industry. Ben tracy reports. Reporter at a busy intersection in downey, california, theres a monument to the founding of our fast food nation. This is the oldest mcdonalds in the world now, and youve never been here . No, this is my first time. Reporter Jason Macdonald french is the grandson of dick mcdonald, who along with his brother mack, started selling burgers, fries, and shakes in san bernardino, california in 1948. The downey location was the third one they built and the oldest still standing. What was it like growing up with this particular family his sfli as children, we werent allowed to talk about it. So its always been that family secret that no one talked about, we never really advertised it. Reporter that would be because the mcdonalds empire we know today, with nearly 37,000 stores in more than 100 countries, exists largely because of this man, whose last name is not mcdonald. Did your grandfather ever ment no. Ray kroc was a touchy subject. He worked with ray for years and they had a great relationship until the end. Reporter the story of the Mcdonald Brothers and ray kroc is told in the new film the founder. Michael keaton played kroc. He takes the Mcdonald Brothers concept and franchises it. What did you learn that surprised you . So much. I didnt know that there were mcdonalds brothers. The more i learned, it was simply real interesting. Reporter in 1948, the Mcdonald Brothers debuted a new Kitchen Assembly line they called the Speedy Service system. Speedy was the restaurants mascot, long before there was a ronald mcdonald. Their system was revolutionary. Fresh, delicious burger in 30 seconds. I didnt really understand completely how the brothers had created fast food as we know it today. It wasnt just a gimmick, it was world changing. Weve got three right here in the chicagoland area. Reporter John Lee Hancock is the films director. People were so used to getting food in their cars, and the thought of them having to get out of their car, order and not get utensils or plates or anything like that, people at first didnt know what to do with this information. Reporter in 1954, ray kroc delivered several milkshake mixers to the Mcdonald Brothers. What are those . Its a way to make the place stand out when youre driving by. The golden arches i call them. Reporter he was in awe of what they created and convinced them to let him spread their golden as rchefrom coast to coast. Franchise the damn thing. Franchise, franchise, franchise. Reporter kroc opened his first franchised mcdonalds in illinois in 1955 and started the mcdonalds corporation. In terms of his work ethic, his drive, and his vision, that part of ray kroc i really admire. At the point where old ray goes south in the movie, not so much. Reporter 4 . No. Ray damn it. As an actor, thats a great thing to play and investigate. But as a human being, not real attractive. I am through taking marching orders from you. You will do as we say. Reporter kroc feuded with the Mcdonald Brothers for control. You have a contract. Contracts are like hearts. Theyre made to be broken. Reporter and in one of the shrewdest deals of alltime, ray kroc bought the business and the rights to their under the Mcdonald Brothers in 1961, for 2. 7 million. Today, the company is worth more than 100 billion, and ray kroc is considered its founder. The title of the movie, youre being a little cheeky. Its intentionally misleading, i would say. Yeah, what is your definition of a founder is that somebody who has the idea or someone who expands the idea . Do you think by calling himself the founder, he was perpetuating a falsehood or is that how he saw himself . I think he probably would argue that the latter, but i think probably it was the former. I mean, the way i look at it is, yeah, he was nobody ever talked about the Mcdonald Brothers, that would have been fine with him. So person of a certain age come by and its nostalgic for them. But probably means something more to in what his grandfather created, but theres something the family rarely talked about. Look, fellows, youll get your full royalties, all right . Reporter the hand shake deal which ray kroc promised the brothers a half percent royalty on all future proceeds. The family says he never paid them a cent. Knowing now that would be worth about 100 million a year. Pretty crazy. Is there bitterness about that in your family . No, no. My grandfather was never bitter over it. Why would we be bitter over something hes not . Theres 100 million reasons you could be. Yes, yes. Reporter for Jason Macdonald french, seeing his familys story told on the big screen is its own form of payback. We were overjoyed with the fact that the story is being told the right way and is they did create fast food. [female narrator] even if youre not planning on getting pregnant now, you should know that foods rich in folic acid like white bread and leafy greens can help prevent some birth defects before you even know youre pregnant. In maine, theres a young girl named kylie who wont go anywhere without her baby, duck. Steve hartman found their story on the road. Reporter a lot of kids go to the park to see ducks. But 5yearold kylie brown of free port, maine, takes her duck to see the park. Snowflake comes here to swim around the pond and then returns when called, because snowflake truly believes kylie i in this delusion. Im his mom. Reporter youre not really his mom. Yep, im his mom. How did you first find out . That he was a duck . No, that [ laughter ] reporter kylie is unbearably cute. And since i never did rekov tore ask that question again, let me tell you that kylie first noticed the attachment the day the browns brought her home last summer. For whatever reason, the duck imprinted on kylie and just had to be by her side. No matter what the hour. When snowflake refused to stay in the backyard, kylies parents, ashley and mike, say they had no choice but to give him a diaper and make him a house duck. He goes everywhere ducks are allowed. I dont know if youve had a 2yearold or 4yearold that wouldnt blanky, she would not leave home without her duck. At that point, nothing is negotiable. Reporter snowflake goes to the beach in summer, sledding in winter. Hes gone over sleepovers, even tricker treating as olaf, the snowman from frozen. And of time, because they both believe they belong together, they have formed a bond like most of us will never know. Its special, even at 5 years old, thats the type of person shes going to be. Reporter she really is going to make a great mom some day. Mostly because she already is. You know, some day youre going to grow up to go off to college. What .

This is the cbs overnight news. President trumps First Business day was all business. He met with ceos and Union Leaders and pulled the United States out of a wideranging pacific trade agreement. This comes after a rough start to his presidency, a weekend of tweeting tantrums and falsehoods from the president and his spokesman. Mr. Trump was peeved about estimates of his inauguration crowd, which he felt were too low. Saturday he used his first visit to the cia to boast about his victory and complain about what he called a running war with the media. Margaret brennan is at the white house. All right. Were going to sign three memorandums right now. Reporter with the stroke of his pen, donald trump took three reagan era band on sending foreign aid to any overseas group that supports abortion rights, ordering a federal hiring freeze, except within the military, and withdrawing the u.

Jeff pegues is looking into this. Reporter when President Trump left cia headquarters saturday, a couple steps behind him was his National Security adviser, retired general Michael Flynn. Cbs news has learned that u. S. Investigators have been looking into at least one phone call in late december between flynn and russias ambassador to the United States, sergey kislyak. The call came just as the Obama Administration expelled dozens of Russian Diplomats and announced sanctions in response to the wave of election cyber attacks. On december 30th, Russian Foreign minister Sergei Lavrov suggested on Russian Television that the kremlin would retaliate by expelling american diplomats, but shortly thereafter, president Vladimir Putin sent out a note saying that he would not kick u.

Reporter this is the worst storm to hit Southern California in seven years. Mireya villarreal, cbs news, los angeles. Today, iraqi forces claimed control of eastern mosul, the largest iraqi city occupied by isis with nearly a million residents. For 100 days now, u. S. Forces have been supporting iraqi and kurdish troops in the siege, hoping of breaking the back of isis in iraq. Today our Charlie Dagata got a rare look inside the partially liberated city. Reporter it has taken three this far. On an eerie drive through mosul the destruction became worse the closer we got to the university, a former isis weapons factory. Donald trump has vowed to eradicate isis militants, but its an enormous challenge. For these Iraqi Special forces, recapturing Mosul University was a symbolic victory. [gunfire] thousands of iraqi soldiers have thought to have lost their lives in mosul, some in the battle to reclaim this sprawling complex, including a wellstocked Chemistry Lab where militants invented new types of bombs. Aside from the obvious trail of destruction left behind, there are still signs of the isis occupation, including these two isis flags still flying the above the overpass. Isis still holds western parts of the city. We spoke with Lieutenant GeneralAbdulwahab Al saadi, who told us hes counting on more support from president donald trump. What do you need most . We need air strikes, the general said. We need more equipment, including drones. That might be a tough sell with the new president , given that the United States has launched countless air strikes in the assault on mosul and spent millions retraining and arming iraqi forces. But the general told us the iraqi army still needs more help. For those in mosul exhausted by the fighting, thats the last answer they wanted to hear. In a sign of how difficult these battles are, scott, we werent allowed anywhere near the Chemistry Lab because we were told isis left a building booby trapped. Its a typical isis strategy that slows down iraqi forces while militants regroup elsewhere. Charlie dagata in mosul tonight. Charlie, thank you.

By any measure the womens marches held on saturday were extraordinary, more than a million turned out in cities around the country and the world to oppose the agenda of president donald trump. So what happens next . Heres dean reynolds. Reporter organizers of chicagos weekend protests expected 20,000 marchers to show up. Actually 250,000 did, so many that police had to cancel a planned march because the streets were too clogged. And yet in the cold gray light of this monday morning, one question lingers about what took place. So the demonstration is over. What now . Time to get active in your community on every level. Reporter liz radford, Jessica Scheller and Ann Scholhamer cochaired the chicago gathering that had been building since the election and is now a staple on social media. I think its unfortunate that things have to get really bad sometimes before it gets better, but sometimes when you push somebody to the edge, thats whhe even if we have to do this every year or every month to get people together, to reenergize them, then i guess im in. We will not go away. Reporter the 2018 midterm elections will be a primary focus, they say, safeguarding reproductive rights, preserving health care and protecting immigrants are just three motivating issues for something thats still too new to be called a movement. A lot of the issues that we are talking about right now are american issues. Reporter for now they intend to press congress on mr. Trumps cabinet and Supreme Court choices. Was this a protest against the president . I think for many people it was. I think in some measure it was a protest on a grander scale about the mindset that put the president into office. We want our presence known. We want him to understand that were a very powerful demographic voting bloc, and that we need to influence policy. A lot of work to do, scott, because as powerful as they hope to be, they are well aware that last fall they lacked the organization and the votes to defeat donald trump.

Samsung says its figured out what caused the batteries on some galaxy note 7 smartphones to catch fire. Heres kris van cleave. Reporter it was overheating incidents like these that prompted a worldwide recall and monthslong investigation by 700 samsung engineers. 200,000 plus devices and more than 30,000 lithiumion batteries were tested. Samsung found a design defect, incorrect battery placement in the upper right corner caused the first wave of problems. Then some replacement devices had a manufacturing error, an abnormal weld that led to internal short circuits. Dan ackerman from cnet. Two different defects from two different batteries from two different suppliers, and you end up with the same problem in both cases, which is what seemed so unbelievable about this case. Reporter in the u. S. , samsung received 13 reports of burns, 37 reports of property damage, and in all, 96 reports of overheating batteries. The vast majority of chargeable devices are powered by lithium ion batteries, known for their high output and low cost. Are these batteries safe . Or are we packing too much power into a small thing . They are safe conceptually, but were asking them to do more than ever in more tightly constrained and designed products. So theyre pushing the boundaries of what these batteries can physically do. Reporter there have been other products like ecigarettes overheating and catching fire and about a half million hoverboards were recalled last summer because faulty battery packs could overheat and in some cases catch fire. Airlines including alaska and Virgin America are now stocking burn bags like these that can contain a lithiumion fire. Samsung also announced a new eightpoint safety check of batteries that includes xraying for abnormalities. Scott, of the 3 million note 7s sold, 96 have been returned. That leaves about 120,000 unaccounted for worldwide. Kris van cleave with the followup for us tonight. Kris, thank you. Thats the overnight news for this tuesday. For some of you the news continues. For others, check back with us for the morning news and be sure not to miss cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im scott pelley. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im jericka duncan. Week one of the Trump Administration got off to a busy start. The president met with Union Leaders and ordered a freeze on hiring some federal workers. Mr. Trump took the first step to pull out of the Transpacific Partnership trade agreement, and dismissed the latest lawsuit against him. Margaret brennan begins our coverage. All right. Were going to sign three memorandums right now. Reporter with the stroke of his pen, donald trump took three executive actions. Reinstating a reagan era ban on sending foreign aid to any oversees group that supports abortion rights. Ordering a federal hiring freeze, except within the military. And withdrawing the u. S. From a pacific countries. Great thing for the American Worker, what we just did. Reporter mr. Trump said hed instead negotiate with countries one on one and told a gathering of ceos that hed reduce regulations and cut taxes, but punish them for shipping jobs overseas. If that happens, we are going to be imposing a very major border tax on the product when it comes in, which i think is fair. I believe that we have to be honest with the American People. Reporter White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer tried to reset relations with the peace corps after calling the media dishonest on saturday. This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration period, both in person and around the globe. Reporter spicer claimed photos of trumps swearing in were intentionally framed to minimize the crowd. Today he explained he was actually referring to total viewership online, on tv and in person. He also admitted the data on attendees was incomplete. Disagree with the facts. There are certain things that we may not fully understand when we come out, but our intention is never to lie to you. Reporter but the Trump White House continues to insist the president is treated unfairly by the press, particularly regarding his relationship with the cia, which he visited on saturday. I love you. I respect you. Theres nobody i respect more. Youre going to do a fantastic job. Reporter before assuming office, mr. Trump brushed off the intelligence communitys conclusion of Russian Election meddling by saying these are the same people that said Saddam Hussein had weapons of mass destruction, and he accused intelligence officials of leaking an unsubstantiated dossier about his ties to russia. Thats something that nazi germany would have done and did do. I think its a disgrace. That information that was false and fake and never happened got released to the public. Reporter scott, today the Trump Organization released a le s before inauguration President Trump resigned from the company that bears his name along with more than 400 entities. President trumps National Security adviser Michael Flynn is coming under fire for his contacts with kremlin leaders before mr. Trump even took office. Jeff pegues has that. Reporter when President Trump left cia headquarters saturday, a couple of steps behind him was his National Security adviser, retired general Michael Flynn. Cbs news has learned that u. S. Investigators have been looking into at least one phone call in late december between flynn and russias ambassador to the United States, serge kislyak. The call came just as the Obama Administration expelled dozens of Russian Diplomats. And announced sanctions in response to the wave of election cyber attacks. On december 30th, russian suggested on Russian Television that the kremlin would retaliate by expelling american diplomats, but shortly thereafter, president Vladimir Putin sent out a note saying that he would not kick u.

Investigators are trying to determine whether the trump team was coordinating with the russians leading up to and after the election. So far sources say they have found no evidence of wrongdoing. Today White House PressSecretary Sean Spicer said the call between flynn and the Russian Ambassador covered four topics. One was the loss of life that occurred in the plane crash that took their military choir. Two was christmas and holiday greetings. Three was to talk about a conference in syria on isis. And four was to set up, to talk about after the inauguration setting up a call between president putin and President Trump. Reporter flynn is not the only trump associate being scrutinized. Sources tell cbs news that investigators are also trying to determine if others shared sensitive u. S. Information with russia, including corporate trade secrets, and if any criminal laws were broken. The white house says President Trump is ready to work with russia to defeat the Islamic State in iraq and syria. The terror groups last major stronghold in iraq is the city of mosul, half of which is now in the hands of the government. Charlie dagata is there. Reporter it has taken three long and bloody months to get this far. On an eerie drive through mosul the destruction became worse the closer we got to the university, a former isis weapons factory. Donald trump has vowed to eradicate isis militants, but its an enormous challenge. For these Iraqi Special forces, recapturing Mosul University was a symbolic victory.

After one of the most divisive campaigns in u. S. History, President Trump is vowing to bring america together. That may prove to be a tall order. If our new series, we the people, we went around the country and spoke to americans from different political backgrounds about their hopes and fears. Here they are, in their own words. Im steven. Im ceasar. Im leo. Im hally, a special Education Teacher in ohio, and i voted for Hillary Clinton. Its a small town, blue collar. Weve always been a democratic stronghold. I just dont understand why so many people in this community would vote for him. It just felt like a joke. Like this was the best pick of the republican party. A man with no political experience, who is abrasive, brash, mocks people that arent like him. Since trumps won the presidency, in a lot of ways, i feel like i cant express what i really feel. I cant express like im grateful, because suddenly im the by got. I want to see people with equal opportunity. I grew up in a christian home. My dad always taught me the value of hard work. Im beginning my own business with heavy equipment. Im really excited for whats to come with this new administration and new economy. And we will make America Great again. I voted for donald trump because i believe that he represents the best option for creating an ecosystem where my children can prosper. I felt that Hillary Clinton was presenting a picture and some of the narrative there was that capitalism was bad. And i believe that wall street can never, ever be allowed to wreck main street again. The market is booming. And i believe a lot of that is because of Donald Trumps presence there. I dont deny that donald trump used the art of rhetoric, the art of influence with word, and the art of tickling peoples emotions, i dont deny that. But how he governs is a whole different thing. Theyre screaming, we want the wall, we want the wall. Build the wall, mr. Trump. Were going to build the wall. When donald trump says those things, one, its not president ial. Two, its not what this nation is about. I was born in exco and i immigrated to the u. S. When i was 5 years old. I remember crossing over and being in a whole new world. I felt like any typical american kid. Im the first attorney to be allowed to practice in the great state being undont i think that everybody should have the opportunity to work hard and make something of themselves, but thats what it takes, it takes hard work. America is not built on free handouts. When i was 20, i had to have brain surgery. I was told that i had a year to live. Thus ive had to have, you know, Specialized Health care, and im going into starting my own business. Im responsible for my own insurance. Weve got to get rid of obamacare. I really hope that donald trump will work on the obamacare problem. My moms on obamacare, the Affordable Care act. Obviously hes going to repeal it, so shes going to lose her health insurance. He said hes going to replace it immediately afterward. Im proud to be an american i dont understand how the e United States can vote for a man whose rhetoric is so hateful. Look at my africanamerican over here. Look at him. Are you the greatest . I dont believe hes a racist, no. Sometimes hes not the best cultural communicator in the world. The reason i do the work is to bring better ideas to the public square, across race. But ive received lots of backlash because of my support for trump. I am going to bring your jobs back to america. I think if donald trump does increase the number of jobs that are available in america, that this will be a great boone to the selfesteem of our country. Anyone who has entered the United States illegally is subject to deportation. One of the fears i do have is that i could be subject to deportation any day. My family, many of them are residents or u. S. Citizens. We have a broken immigration system that is going to separate families, american families. You cant trust him with a cell phone. How are we going to trust him with Nuclear Launch codes . A lot of people are like, hes going to hit the red button. Hes not, because hes surrounded by a great team. Working together, we will begin the urgent task of rebuilding our nation. My biggest hope is that the American People will reflect on what makes us great, which is our immigrant background, our diversity, and our strength to overcome challenges. I hope that he works closely with democrats and republicans in bipartisan ways to further the country. Do i agree with everything he does . No. Did i vote for him . No. But i live in america. Im an american. Of course i want him to succeed. Because if he succeeds, our country succeeds. Ok, it says you apply the blue okone to me. Y this. Here . No. Ah ok, here .

Nearly 70 years ago, the Mcdonald Brothers revolutionized the Restaurant Business and pretty much created the fast food industry. But theres a bigger story behind the bigmac, and its told in a new movie called the founder. Ben tracy reports. Reporter at a busy intersection in downey, california, theres a monument to the founding of our fast food nation. The world now, and youve never been here . No, this is my first time. Wow. Reporter Jason Macdonald french is the grandson of dick mcdonald, who along with his brother mack, started selling burgers, fries, and shakes in san bernardino, california in 1948. The downey location was the third one they built and the oldest still standing. What was it like growing up with this particular Family History . As children, we werent allowed to talk about it. Our parnls didnt want us going around saying we were the grandson of richard mcdonald. So its always been that family secret that no one talked about, we never really advertised it. Reporter that would be because the mcdonalds empire we know today, with nearly 37,000 stores in more than 100 countries, exists largely because of this man, whose last name is not mcdonald. Did your grandfather ever mention ray kroc to you . Not really. Ray kroc was a touchy subject. He worked with ray for years and they had a great relationship until the end. Reporter the story of the Mcdonald Brothers and ray kroc is told in the new film the founder. Michael keaton played kroc. This is a simple operation. Care for a little tour . Reporter the milkshake salesman who takes the Mcdonald Brothers concept and franchises it across the country. We all think we know mcdonalds. What did you learn that surprised you . So much. I didnt know that there were mcdona bldsrothers. The more i learned, it was simply real interesting. Reporter in 1948, the Mcdonald Brothers debuted a new Kitchen Assembly line they called the Speedy Service system. Speedy was the restaurants mascot, long before there was a ronald mcdonald. Speed, thats the name of the game. Reporter their system was revolutionary. Fre, i didnt really understand completely how the brothers had created fast food as we know it today. It wasnt just a gimmick, it was world changing. Weve got three right here in the chicagoland area. Reporter John Lee Hancock is the films director. People were so used to getting food in their cars, and the thought of them having to get out of their car, order and not get utensils or plates or anything like that, people at first didnt know what to do with this information. Reporter in 1954, ray kroc delivered several milkshake mixers to the Mcdonald Brothers. What are those . Its a way to make the place stand out when youre driving by. The golden arches i call them. Reporter he was in awe of what they created and convinced them to let him spread their golden arches from coast to coast. Franchise the damn thing. Franchise, franchise, franchise. First franchised mcdonalds in illinois in 1955 and started the mcdonalds corporation. In terms of his wrk ethic, his drive, and his vision, that part of ray kroc i really admire. At the point where old ray goes south in the movie, not so much. 4 . No. 3. 5 . Ray what . No damn it. As an actor, thats a great thing to play and investigate. But as a human being, not real attractive. I am through taking marching orders from you. You will do as we say. Reporter kroc feuded wit the Mcdonald Brothers for control. You have a contract. Contracts are like hearts. Theyre made to be broken. Reporter and in one of the shrewdest deals of alltime, ray kroc bought the business and the rights to their name out from under the Mcdonald Brothers in 1961, for 2. 7 million. Today, the company is worth more than 100 billion, and ray kroc is considered its founder. The title of the movie, youre being a little cheeky. Its intentionally misleading, i would say. Yeah, what is your definition of a founder is that somebody who has the idea or someone who expands the idea . Do you think by calling himself the founder, he was perpetuating a falsehood or is that how he saw himself . I think he probably would argue that the latter, but i think probably it was the former. I mean, the way i look at it is, yeah, he was nobody ever talked about the Mcdonald Brothers, that would have been fine with him. So person of a certain age come by and its nostalgic for them. I imagine this means a whole lot more to you. Sure. Something that my grand father over tireless years came up with. Reporter french takes pride but theres something the family rarely talked about. Look, fellows, youll get your full royalties, all right . Reporter the handshake deal which ray kroc promised the brothers a half percent royalty on all future proceeds. Lets make a deal. Reporter the family says he never paid them a cent. Knowing now that would be worth about 100 million a year. Yeah, 100 million a year. Pretty crazy. Is there bitterness about that in your family . No, no. My grandfather was never bitter over it. Why would we be bitter over something that my grandfather wasnt bitter over . Theres 100 million reasons you could be. Yes, yes. Reporter for Jason Macdonald french, seeing his familys story told on the big screen is its own form of payback. We were overjoyed with the fact that the story is being told the right way and is historically accurate. They did create fast food. They started that from the beginning.
