>> moa. i'm norah o'donnell for cbs news. thank you for this view of the capitol. good night. this is "the cbs overnight news." >> welcome to "the overnight news." i'm meg oliver. president trump travels to pittsburgh today, leaving behind the swirling impeachment inquiry that threatens his presidency. mr. trump threw fuel on the fire when he tweeted that the investigation is a modern-day lynching and called on republicans to protect him. that choice of words dredged up a painful chapter in american history and drew a firestorm of criticism.
3:31 am
nan nan nan nan nancy cordes reports. >> reporter: what he's been describing all day is the quid pro quo that the president had been denying. what made you concern about a quid pro quo. behind closed doors ambassador bill taylor described a secret campaign to pressure ukraine, using u.s. aid as bait. >> this is my most disturbing day in congress so far. very troubling. >> reporter: taylor was a recently retired, seasoned diplomat, pressed back into service this summer. according to his 15-page opening statement, taylor encountered a highly irregular u.s. policymaking effort in ukraine, engineered by president trump and involving the president's personal lawyer, rudy giuliani. by mid-july, taylor said, it was becoming clear to me, the
3:32 am
meeting that ukrainian president zelensky wanted with president trump, was conditioned on the investigations of the energy company that employed the son of joe biden. president trump tightened the screws by suddenly withholding hundreds of millions in aid. he was adamant that he go to a microphone and say he is opening investigations of biden and 2016 election interference. zelensky was even told to tell mr. trump specifically, quote, i will leave no stone unturned. >> that is a very important statement from a credible person. >> reporter: mr. trump has urged republicans to defend him more forcefully. >> mitch mcconnell, that was the most innocent phone call i read. >> reporter: but his penchant for exaggeration, has put allies, like leader mcconnell, in a tough spot. >> do you think that the president has handled this appropriate? >> we have not had conversations abut that subject. >> reporter: so, he was lying
3:33 am
about that? >> you'll have to ask him. i don't recall conversations about that phone call. >> reporter: in fact, he said he sent a cable to the secretary of state warning about what he called the folly of cutting off u.s. aid to ukraine while it was facing a threat from russia. he says he never got any response to that cable. but he did later learn that the secretary took it with him to a meeting at the white house. the aide was reinstated last month after bipartisan outcry here on capitol hill. and tonight, the white house continues to insist there was no quid pro quo. meanwhile, the impeachment inquiry into president trump's dealing with ukraine, ground on in the basement of the capitol. former ambassador to ukraine, william taylor, gave what is described as dramatic, damning and detailed testimony, about the white house with a quid pro quo for release of humanitarian aid. >> given the history of our country, i would not compare this to a lynching.
3:34 am
>> reporter: republican leaders could not defend president trump's tweet comparing the impeachment inquiry to a lynching. >> that is not the language i would use. >> reporter: a spokesman for the president tried to massage the message. >> what he is explaining, clearly, is the way he's been treated by the media, since he announced for president. >> reporter: but mr. trump made no mention of the media in his post that drew criticism from democrats. >> how dare he? >> i resent it tremendously. >> he's someone who doesn't understand what has happened in america to minorities. >> reporter: president trump has made many remarks considered racist by some. >> if you're not happy here, you can leave. >> reporter: he told four, american congresswoman of colors to go back to their original countries. and refused to fight white supremacists after their rally turned deadly in virginia.
3:35 am
>> you had peopvery fine people both sides. >> reporter: and then trump had kept muslims from entering the u.s. and described mexican immigrants like this -- >> they're bringing crime. they're rapists. some, i assume, are good people. >> reporter: trump ally, lindsey graham, said today, the president's tweet was spot-on. >> this is a inlynching in ever sense. this is un-american. >> reporter: president trump is going to speak at benedict, a historically black college. no remorse from mr. trump, who continues to say he has done more for the african-american community than any other country. presidenter eredogan has cu deal with vladimir putin, that would create a safe zone along the turkey/syria border.
3:36 am
this is after president trump asked for a retruitt eat of u.s forces from the area. here's holly williams. >> reporter: the deal tonight between president erdogan and president putin will hold off a turkish offensive in eastern syria for another six days. turkey will get a 20-mile safe zone along its border. but this is more than a cease-fire agreement. as american troops leave eastern syria, the u.s. is ceding influence to russia. the russians have stepped into the power vacuum. they are already patrolling territory once patrolled by america and its allies. the u.s. withdrawal opened the door to the turkish offensive, targeting kurdish fighters that turkey says are a terrorist group. but the kurdish forces have been america's closest partners in the campaign against isis on the ground in syria. they've been betrayed, by the u.s., they say, and have stopped
3:37 am
fighting isis. and there's the fate of the roughly 12,000 accused isis fighters that kurdish forces say they were still holding. we were given exclusive access to one of the prisons last month, where they showed us security video of an attempted escape. they're breaking out of the cell. it is unclear who will be in charge of keeping them locked up. with american troops leaving eastern syria and kurdish forces sidelined, the question is who will continue the battle against isis? like so much else right now, that could be up to the russians. the cbs overnight news will be right back.

3:43 am
discussing how many days would be covered at a care facility. >> his symptoms have worsened. and, you know, that was the reason -- if his symptoms are worsened, they're letting you know the only chance of greater care is if your child's symptoms get worse. and then, you end up where you're oddly, slightly hoping that something worsens. >> another thing is that maybe getting medicaid for him. >>eporter: you hear the suggestion that your son get medicaid. >> yes. >> reporter: from the united health care people. >> and why should this be schlepped off to taxpayers? there shouldn't be lobbying. >> reporter: a class action lawsuit claims that patients were illegally denied benefits thanks to internal guidelines. this is co-counsel for the plaintiffs. >> if i'm the patient or the provider, i can protest all i want and you the hold up your

guidelines and say you don't meet the criteria. but what if the criteria are flagrantly off-base? >> reporter: and you think they are? >> i didn't think so. the court thought so. >> reporter: the court ruled against ubh and called the guidelines, flawed, unreasonable, and more restrictive than generally accepted standards of care and that financial incentives affected the guideline development process. >> there's thousands of families in our situation. and they eventually give up. there's no more money to fund care. >> reporter: she says her son is stable and living with them. hisaughter left that facility in 2017. now, they have little contact. >> it's my belief she blames me for the loss of her sister. >> reporter: where does that leave you? >> it leaves me with the realization that i lost both daughters. >> united behavior health told

the museum of modern art reopened after a multiple dollar face-lift. we had a look around. >> reporter: for the last four months, new york city's museum of modern art, the most visited modern art museum in the country, has been closed for a highly-anticipated expansion. estimated to cost $450 million, the makeover will include an entire new wing, increasing the museum's gallery space by nearly 30%. that means space for about 1,000 additional pieces of art. >> for me, what's so exciting, is that there were two museums when i arrived here 25 years ago. there was the museum that was on display. >> reporter: glen lowery is the director of the moma. >> and there was the museum that was in storage. and they were unrelated. now, what we've done is to bring
3:49 am
those two museums together. so, the museum on display, much better reflects that museum that was in storage. >> reporter: the museum of modern art first opened its doors back in 1929. the mission -- to showcase modern and contemporary art. during those 90 years, it's been through eight major renovations. the last one, just 15 years ago. >> it's a new, yet familiar home. >> reporter: sunday morning covered that, too, with morley safer as our guide. >> a secular cathedral to limitlelimit le limitless imagination. >> i cut school to come here and get a new education. >> reporter: architect liz diller has spent a lifetime visiting the moma.
3:50 am
now, her firm is helping write the museum's next chapter. what is different today at the moma, from what it was, what moma was before? >> i think the very first thing that people will notice is that the entrance is much more pronounlsed. >> reporter: her goal, make the museum more inviting. that involved opening up the lobby and moving the museum store down one level. >> this will be full of natural light coming in. and the store is actually bigger. even though it's below of the ground, it takes advantage of the natural light. and we have a fantastic visibility between the street and the lobby. >> reporter: attention was paid to every detail. even the stairwell that connects the old and new buildings. >> it's interesting because
3:51 am
staircases are notoriously boomy and loud. what you see lining the stairwells are panels. it's microperforated. so, tiny perforations on these panels allow the sound to be absorbed. usually wood reflects the sound. here, it's absorbing. >> reporter: of course, the building isn't the only thing getting spruced up. the art is, too. masterpieces have been cleaned and touched up. the gallery's completely reorganized. >> we used to be a museum made up of individual departments. and those departments were dislocated from each other. now, we've brought everything together under one circuit. and you'll see photography and film and painting and sculpture and new media all together, in a way that i think feels whole and
3:52 am
real. >> reporter: new acquisitions are also on display, like this massive richard cera sculpture. >> each column is 80 tons. you can imagine -- >> reporter: i can't. how did you get it in here, really? >> it was an engineering miracle. we had to engineer the floors before we began construction, to support an extraordinary weight. >> reporter: the museum will increase the number of works by female artists, five-times as many as before. >> this was an extraordinary work. a recent acquisition. the first time we've had it on view. a great artist from india who came to prominence in the '70s and '90s. what she's done a make an incredible physical form. >> it's a real mix in here. >> reporter: and the new moma's mission to showcase new art doesn't stop there. >> every six months, we'll turn over a third of our collection
3:53 am
galleries. >> reporter: the krcurator is i charge of the opening. what does it take to switch it over? >> it is a big problem. but if you come to moma in those moments, you might not realize because there will be so much going on here. so, we are in a brand-new space for moma. >> reporter: yes. there most certainly is a lot going on. plenty is new about this new moma. even if it is just a matter of time before an even newer one comes along. >> we've probably pushed the footprint as broadly as we can. but 10, 15, 20 years from now, as a new generation of curators needs to change the foot print of the gallery, we'll find a way to make that happen. there's an artist that may
3:54 am
soon have his work hanging in the moma. >> reporter: for firefighter, daryl paul, the fire hose is a tool of the trade. but in his hands, old, discarded hoses become something much more, works of art. >> that's the one piece of equipment that will go into the fire every time. >> reporter: he first started turning trip ining strips of hos and stripes in 2015. a decoration that caught on like, well, like wildfire. >> i have orders blowing up. >> reporter: now, they're displayed across the country, including the local burger joint where paul takes his family. he's made more than 100 flags. many commissioned, each unique. this one commemorates a firefight firefighter's life. >> i love the character. >> reporter: character. and a call to duty. attributes, he feels, all of us
