[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 well-stocked 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 general abdulwahab al saadi, who told us he's 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, that's the last answer they wanted to hear. in a sign of how difficult these battles are, scott, we weren't allowed anywhere near the chemistry lab because we were told isis left a building booby trapped. it's a typical isis strategy that slows down iraqi forces while militants regroup elsewhere. >> charlie d'agata in mosul tonight. charlie, thank you. coming up next, more than a million protested the trump inauguration. so what's their next move? and later, what caused all those smartphones to catch fire. be ready to clean up the mess. house. the kids have fun, but it's pretty gross.

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? here's dean reynolds. >> reporter: organizers of chicago's 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 it's unfortunate that things have to get really bad sometimes before it gets better, but sometimes when you push somebody to the edge, that's when they finally stand up and step out of their comfort zone. even if we have to do this every year or every month to get people together, to reenergize them, then i guess i'm in. >> we will not go away. >> reporter: the 2018 mid-term elections will be a primary focus, they say, safeguarding reproductive rights, preserving health care and protecting immigrants are just three motivating issues for something that's 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. trump's 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 we're a very powerful demographic voting bloc, and that we need to influence policy. >> reporter: they know they have 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. my swthis scarf all thatsara. left to remem... what! she washed this like a month ago the long lasting scent of gain flings the love story. the story of george and barbara bush. >> they truly

she'd 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, i'm 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 wouldn't be prudent. his main concern is being home for the super bowl because the bushes are hosting a party samsung says it's figured out what caused the batteries on some galaxy note 7 smartphones to catch fire. here's kris van cleave. >> reporter: it was overheating incidents like these that prompted a worldwide recall and months-long investigation by 700 samsung engineers. 200,000 plus devices and more than 30,000 lithium-ion 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 we're asking them to do more than ever in more tightly constrained and designed products. so they're pushing the boundaries of what these batteries can physically do. >> reporter: there have been other products like e-cigarettes 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 lithium-ion fire. samsung also announced a new eight-point safety check of batteries that includes x-raying 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 follow-up for us tonight. kris, thank you. that's the "overnight news" for this

pelley. this is the "cbs overnight news." >> welcome to the "overnight news." i'm 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. we're 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 free trade deal with 11 asia pacific countries. >> great thing for the american worker, what we just did. >> reporter: mr. trump said he'd instead negotiate with countries one on one and told a gathering of ceos that he'd 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 press secretary 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 trump's 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. there's nobody i respect more. you're going to do a fantastic job. >> reporter: before assuming office, mr. trump brushed off the intelligence community's 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. >> that's something that nazi germany would have done and did do. i think it's 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. president trump's 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 russia's 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 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.s. diplomats out of the country and instead talked about restoring russian-u.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 press secretary 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 group's last major stronghold in iraq is the city of mosul, half of which is now in the hands of the government. charlie d'agata 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

>> i don't believe he's a racist, no. sometimes he's 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 i've 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 self-esteem 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 can't trust him with a cell phone. how are we going to trust him with nuclear launch codes? >> a lot of people are like, he's going to hit the red button. my response to that is, you know what? he's not, because he's 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, 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 weren't allowed to talk about it. our parnls didn't want us going around saying we were the grandson of richard mcdonald. so it's always been that family secret that no one talked about, we never really advertised it. >> reporter: that would be because the mcdonald's 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 brother's concept and franchises it across the country. >> we all think we know mcdonald's. what did you learn that surprised you? >> so much. i didn't know that there were mcdonald's 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 restaurant's mascot, long before there was a ronald mcdonald. >> speed, that's the name of the game. >> reporter: their system was revolutionary. >> fresh, delicious burger in 30 seconds. >> i didn't really understand completely how the brothers had created fast food as we know it today. it wasn't just a gimmick, it was world changing. >> we've got three right here in the chicagoland area. >> reporter: john lee hancock is the film's 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 didn't know what to do with this information. >> reporter: in 1954, ray kroc delivered several milkshake mixers to the mcdonald brothers. >> what are those? >> it's a way to make the place stand out when you're 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. >> reporter: kroc opened his first franchised mcdonald's in illinois in 1955 and started the mcdonald's 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, that's 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. they're made to be broken. >> reporter: and in one of the shrewdest deals of all-time, 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, you're being a little cheeky. >> it's 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 it's 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 in what his grandfather created, but there's something the family rarely talked about. >> look, fellows, you'll get your full royalties, all right? >> reporter: the handshake deal which ray kroc promised the brothers a half percent royalty on all future proceeds. >> let's 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?

>> that he was a duck? >> no, that -- [ laughter ] >> reporter: kylie is unbearably cute. since i never did recover to ask that question again, let me tell you that kylie first noticed snowflake's 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, kylie's 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. and almost everywhere they're not allowed. i don't know if you've had a 2-year-old or 4-year-old that wouldn't leave home without his 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. he's been to soccer practice, gone on sleepovers, even went trick or 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. >> it's special, even at 5 years old, that i know that's the type of person she's going to be. >> reporter: she really is going to make a great mom some day. mostly because she already is. >> you know, some day you're going to grow up to go off to college. >> what?
