and you're left with even more confusion and we could can get into this but i thik what weir they're disputing mostly is the corroboration that "buzzfeed" is reporting. the interviews and dock ymtdation that comes from the trump organization. if you really dig into the details, i think that's what their statement is referring to. not necessarily what trump told cohen. if you rerp the documents that were released when michael cohen pled guilty, he says trump directed me to the hush payments too, his former paramore and says that specifically. trump directed me. to congress he says one part that hoowas just watching the president's public pronouncement. to really confuse things, in a seconds part of the memo o, it's a blank statement bothinging the harsh and false statement were in. lot of people thinking over that tonight, looking at what cohen as the previously said and seeing if it's similar to this "buzzfeed" report and it is in a way and not onway. >> what to you think of the whole situation? >> we've been saying throughout the day this story creates more questions than answers. t

cnn's bill weir is in coal country to check in on that campaign promise.ood morning, alisyn. we're standing in front of one of more than 250 coal-fired power plants that have gone out of business since 2010. a lot of folks in this part of the world chalk that up to a so-called war on coal from the democrats, barack obama and donald trump seized on their fears and resentments there and promised to bring this industry back. now two years in, we came here for a reality check. across america, more and more coal-fired smoke stacks are smoke-free. the power plants beneath them cold and dark. the mines that once fed them, abandoned. but for the past couple of years, miners and their families let themselves believe that they coal comeback was on the way. thanks to promises like this. >> we are putting our great coal miners back to work. >> he's trying to get their votes. he isn't telling them the truth. he's lying to them. >> he's lying to them. >> you used to work in this mine. >> i worked in this fine. >> for 52 years, art sullivan worked in and consulted on min

the biggest lottery prize the £161 million euromillions jacket, won in 2011 by chris and colin weir.and he said donald trump has not risen to the ma ntle donald trump has not risen to the mantle of presidency. no response yet from donald trump, but speculation that mitt romney may be positioning himself as a challenge to donald trump, securing the republican presidential nomination. so that is one to watch. the most watched videos now. dramatic pictures, a new year's beach bonfires barking firenado in the netherlands. this happened in a resort in the netherlands. the bonfire was made from wooden pallets and it was lit in an annual competition with neighbouring —— with a neighbouring place. look at those, incredible pictures of that firenado. so that is the most watched video. the second most watched video. the second most watched is asking the question about which country has the most languages. this is interesting. basically, it is pipework new guinea which has an 8 million population, but more than 800 languages are spokenin but more than 800 languages are spoken in papua new guine

. >> hi, nancy weir, urban institute. i'm curious how you think is you are talking through the movement of the technology, we can keep the constitution in front of us, and the legal issues in front of us in a way that still continues to protect people's privacy and civil liberties. i mean are there any movements in terms of the legal community to really look at this carefully and begin to think about and talk to, and convene folks around, it's kind of like the civil rights movement, you know what i'm saying. we are in a new age now of technology, is there any movement in that regard? >> i do think that this is a civil rights issue, it impacts different communities differently. it's slightly different from the irt space in some ways. because in a weird way with the irt space and can actually cost more. you are actually talking about people who are availing themselves out of luxury. like who needs a wired toothbrush. those people aren't necessarily the people who would be targeted by police. in the policing space you are se

it's -- weir putting in a larger context here and i think joyce and danny are doing this as well.ged with lying, think about how many people mueller has charged with lying. flynn lied to the fbi. manafort lied and violated his own plea agreement. so many people within this circle are charged with lying and with obstructing justice. so the question is why do they continue to do that? it's obvious mueller has so much information, why would someone go in and not tell the truth either to mueller or to congress because in this case he's charged with lying to the house committee. so is it that they're being directed by others? and it's clear as we read this indictment, the direction goes up and up. stone was directed -- or was in contact with the senior -- not administration at that point, campaign official and that person was directed by someone else within the campaign. so all of this is trickling down and it's clear that mueller is putting together these pieces and that perhaps these people have been instructed to lie. >> and rick tyler, this is just about every piece of senior leade

and i think, the weirs, it next time, you can come and have a look at the bin.will be a few showers in the east. there are winds across the north, although not as windies yesterday. some high cloud that we've also got low cloud across parts of wales, the midlands and the south—west. and look at the isobars again coming straight down from the north or indeed, the north—west. the strongest winds will be in parts of northern and north—eastern scotland and then write the way down this north sea coastline. that is going to bring it in power, some showers, and the recent high spring tides, what you may find it could have an with some coastal flooding across, for example, parts of east anglia. something to bear in mind, so a blustery day. inland, it will not be as windy and we will see the car brea kers to as windy and we will see the car breakers to go through the day with more sunshine developing. it is going to feel chillier than it did yesterday generally, especially if you are in the wind. they're deceiving and overnight, the wind moves to more of a northerly, you

times congressional reporter cerro h weir. sara the senate is planning to debate a disaster relief funding bill. why is the house leadership bringing up that measure in the midst of the reopen push? >> this is one thing that did not get accomplished last year. there is a lot of pressure to get it done sooner rather than later. chair new appropriations is saying this, this legislation is the first step to helping fellow americans get back on their feet. i am pleased it includes important funding to strengthen resiliency against future disasters, especially those being a more frequent by climate change. what are the sorts of things it will fund? like withstanding floods, , disaster relief when it comes to hurricanes and fires, more preparation for those things. >> you are related story has this headline, california water projects could be shelved as trump seeks money for the order wall. -- border wall. tell us what the president is reportedly trying to do here. sarah: there were some projects funded last year in the appropriatio
