Video: #OffKey Video: Maroon 5 feat. Future – ‘Cold’

Before he drops his album on Friday, Future goes on a wild ride with Maroon 5 in the trippy video for the band’s single “Cold.”
The bizarre clip, which stars Hendrix, Adam Levine, and his supermodel wife Behati Prinsloo, starts with Levine driving home when he gets a call to stop by Future’s house so he can play him his “Cold” verse. After telling his wife that he will be late, he heads to the house party.
There, the bartender slips acid in his drink and he starts to hallucinate and see psychedelic effects including a fish with a human head and floating police cars. Women try to seduce him before he meets up with Future, who appears as a teddy bear and an old white lady.
He eventually is thrown in the pool and witnesses an underwater wedding before returning home safely to his wife, who he recounts the strange evening to.
“It was weird. Somebody slipped something into my drink,” says Levine. “I think it was acid because I started tripping balls. Future turned into a teddy bear and James was getting blown by a chicken. It was crazy.”
Future’s self-titled album drops Friday and he will launch his “Nobody’s Safe Tour” on May 4 with special guests Migos, Tory Lanez, and Kodak Black. Meanwhile, Maroon 5 is gearing up to release their own album, which will also feature the Kendrick Lamar-assisted hit “Don’t Wanna Know.”

News: Chinese ships sail near disputed Japanese islands

Story highlights
Chinese ship movement comes days after US defense secretary's visit to Japan
US defense chief said Senkaku Islands part of US-Japan security treaty
     
(CNN) — Three Chinese Coast Guard ships entered waters near a chain of islands claimed by both China and Japan in the East China Sea on Monday, according to authorities from both sides.
Japan controls the chain and calls them the Senkaku Islands, while China calls them the Diaoyu Islands.
The sailing comes just days after US Defense Secretary James Mattis reaffirmed America's commitment to defending Japan and its disputed islands .
According to Japanese broadcaster NHK, protests were lodged with the Chinese Embassy in Tokyo and in Beijing through the Japanese Embassy.
Tensions have flashed numerous times in recent years over the disputed islands, including face-offs between Japanese and Chinese air and naval forces that have been termed dangerous by both sides.

China's State Oceanic Administration, which oversees the country's Coast Guard, put out a statement late Monday saying the three ships "cruised within China's Diaoyu Islands territorial sea."
China's Defense Ministry, which is separate from the Oceanic Administration, posted a statement on its website confirming the Coast Guard ship movement.
Japan's Coast Guard said the Chinese vessels spent two hours in Japanese territorial waters.
It was the fourth time Chinese ships have entered Japan's waters this year, the Japanese Coast Guard said. There were 36 such incidents in 2016, it said.
During a press conference Saturday in Tokyo, Mattis said the US would defend the islands with Japan.
"I made clear that our long-standing policy on the Senkaku Islands stands -- the US will continue to recognize Japanese administration of the islands and as such Article 5 of the US-Japan Security Treaty applies," Mattis said in a press conference with Japanese Defense Minister Tomomi Inada.
China responded quickly on Saturday to the US stance on the islands, saying it brings instability to the region.
"Diaoyu and its affiliated islands have been Chinese territory since ancient times. These are historical facts that cannot be changed. The so-called US-Japan security treaty was a product of the Cold War, and it should not harm China's territorial sovereignty and legitimate rights," Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman Lu Kang said in a statement.
"We urge the US side to adopt a responsible attitude and stop making wrong remarks on the issue of the sovereignty of Diaoyu Islands," Lu said.
The US commitment to the Senkaus, which Mattis also reaffirmed in a Friday night meeting with Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe, is not new. In 2014, the Obama administration also said the remote chain fell under the treaty.
In late 2013, China declared an air defense identification zone (ADIZ) over much of the East China Sea, including the Senkakus, despite objections from Tokyo and Washington.
Japan also has an ADIZ over the islands. Although the Senkakus are uninhabited, their ownership would allow for exclusive oil, mineral and fishing rights in the surrounding waters.
While the Senkakus remain a source of friction in the US-China relationship, Mattis' visit seemed to have soothed relations a bit in another area, the South China Sea.
Although the US defense chief said "China has shredded the trust of nations in the region" by fortifying disputed South China Sea islands, Mattis also said no increased US military maneuvers there were needed.
Lu, the Chinese Foreign Ministry spokesman, on Monday welcomed that stance.
"As for Mattis' comment that there is no need for large-scale military operations in the area and the issue should be resolved through diplomacy, these remarks deserve our affirmation," Lu said.
CNN's Yuli Yang, Steven Jiang and Yoko Wakatsuki contributed to this report.

News: Are gunshot victims in Chicago under-treated?

Chicago just ended its deadliest year in nearly two decades.The city saw 4,331 shooting victims last year, according to its police department. Now, a new study sheds light on the medical treatment that such victims receive in Cook County, Illinois, the second most populous county in the nation, which includes the city of Chicago.Almost one-fifth of gun-related injuries countywide that met the criteria for treatment at a trauma center, from 2009 to 2013, were initially under-treated, according to the study, which was published in the journal JAMA Surgery on Wednesday.In other words, those patients received initial treatment outside a trauma center. Nearly one-third of all patients with gun-related injuries in the study were treated in a non-trauma facility."I was not surprised by the number of cases treated in hospitals without trauma units.... What did surprise me was the number of firearm injuries," said Lee Friedman, associate professor of environmental and occupational health sciences at the University of Illinois at Chicago, and a co-author of the study.The study involved an analysis of nearly 10,000 gunshot injuries in a single county overfive years, he said, adding, "We have become numb to firearm-related injuries."Other experts called the study important, but questioned whether it's sufficient enough to draw conclusions about the possible under-treatment of gunshot victims.Treating the wounded, without a trauma team
To assess whether a patient's injury was serious enough to warrant treatment in a trauma center, of which there are 19 in Cook County, the researchers took a close look at the patients' diagnosis codes in the data to learn more about the type of injury and the body region injured.The criteria for a patient to be transported to a specialized trauma unit include the patient's level of consciousness, vital signs and location of injury, for instance whether a gunshot wound is to the head, neck, torso or above the elbows or knees, according to guidelines from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention."I would say the vital signs actually supersede the location in terms of importance for most trauma surgeons," said Dr. Bryan Morse, assistant professor of surgery at Emory University School of Medicine and a trauma surgeon at Grady Memorial Hospital in Atlanta, who was not involved in the study.The researchers found that some 28% of the patients were initially treated in non-trauma facilities.Among those with injuries that met the criteria for treatment in a trauma center -- which were 4,934 -- the data showed that about 18% received initial treatment at a non-trauma facility, and about 10% of those were transferred to a trauma facility.Morse said that he was surprised to see the number of patients that went to non-trauma centers, but added that the study had some major limitations.'A good first pass'"It's a good first pass at this data and to look at where firearm injuries are being treated,although that may be different from state to state, metropolitan area to metropolitan area, and county to county," Morse said about the study."One of the things they are missing is initial vital signs," he said. "So, not having that is amajor limitation to the study and it really brings into question the validity of the study. Number two, they don't have any data on why people were transferred or why people weren't taken to a trauma center."

 The study included data on 9,886 patients who were treated for firearm-related injuries at hospitals in Cook County from 2009 to 2013.The data, which were derived from hospital billing records, included outpatients and inpatients, patient demographics, health outcomes and economic outcomes, but lacked physiological measures, such as blood pressure or respiratory rate, Friedman said.Overall, limited resources and longer transport times to a trauma center may explain why some patients weren't treated in a trauma facility when they should have been, theresearchers noted.While the researchers did not examine racial disparities, the data showed that residents of disproportionately Latino or African-American communities in western and southern Chicago were more likely to be under-treated. These areas also have substantially fewer medical resources, Friedman said."This indicates a need for improved, better regional coordination between hospitals with and without specialized trauma teams," Friedman said.Though the researchers noted that transporting patients to the nearest facility instead of a specific trauma center may explain their findings, the other factors that weren't clearly distinguished -- such as more details on type of injury -- could have influenced those findings, wrote Dr. Marie Crandall in an editorial commentary that accompanied the new study in JAMA Surgery.For instance, a gunshot wound to the ankle would not necessarily need to be treated in a trauma center and so wouldn't count as the under-treatment of a patient. Whereas a wound to the knee would need a higher level of care, wrote Crandall, a professor of surgery at the University of Florida College of Medicine in Jacksonville, who was not involved in the study.

News: Trump says he'll send in feds if Chicago doesn't fix 'carnage'

President Donald Trump, for the first time since taking office, has tweeted about violence in Chicago, saying: "I will send in the Feds" if they don't fix the "horrible 'carnage'" going on.He tweeted about the shootings there in early January, saying at the time as President-elect: "If Mayor can't do it he must ask for Federal help."Tuesday night he wrote, "If Chicago doesn't fix the horrible 'carnage' going on, 228 shootings in 2017 with 42 killings (up 24% from 2016), I will send in the Feds."The Chicago Police Department tells CNN there have been 38 homicides and 182 shooting incidents in the city so far in 2017. Chicago Police only report homicides. They are not necessarily all shooting deaths.Trump has previously encouraged Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel to ask for federal assistance.Asked about Trump's statement following a Chicago city council meeting Wednesday, Emanuel said he "welcomed" the idea of greater federal assistance to address crime inthe city. He said federal authorities already play an integral role in fighting crime in the city, referencing the transport of guns across state lines, among other areas."A lot of the guns, you know, coming into Chicago come from out of state," Emanuel said. "Federal entities are set up to deal with that. And they do. And they work with us. "Mentioning past meetings with Trump and Vice President Mike Pence, Emanuel said he has "been very clear about what we need to do."Previously, Emanuel has specified areas he'd like the federal government's help -- including gun control, gun tracking, prosecution for gun crimes and help increase funding for more police officers.

Trump voiced strong support for the Second Amendment on the campaign trail, so it's not clear if that's the type of tactic his administration would favor -- though his campaign stated he was in favor of enforcing gun laws on the books and stringent sentencing for armed felons.Often on the campaign trail, Trump would mention Chicago while suggesting that controversial and possibly unconstitutional tactics such as stop-and-frisk could help address the issue."A policy like stop-and-frisk could save thousands of lives in a city like Chicago, just like it saved thousands of lives in New York. Overwhelmingly, this will save African-American and Hispanic lives -- citizens who are entitled to the same protections as every American," Trump said during a September rally in Florida.

News: Trump trade deal moves could hurt US security posture

President Donald Trump has moved quickly against free-trade deals that he says are hurting American workers -- but in the process he risks dismantling a key pillar of US national security.In his first week on the job, Trump has withdrawn the US from the Trans-Pacific Partnership trade pact and called for the North American Free Trade Agreement to be renegotiated and perhaps abandoned.Amid anger over job losses and concerns about sovereignty that helped fuel Trump's victory, lawmakers in districts hurt by trade and labor unions celebrated the news.But beyond the economic consequences -- which many TPP proponents argue will be negative for the US -- the moves shake the foundations of the US global security architecture. American policy dating back to WWII has used multilateral trade agreements as a tool to strengthen US security and advance US leadership around the world."That's been the case with US trade policy for the entire post-war period," said Fred Bergsten, founding director of the Peterson Institute for International Economics, speaking of agreements like NAFTA and TPP. "So when you undo them, as Trump could do, you are really striking a major blow against fundamental US national security interests."
Bergsten and others also said that the TPP withdrawal clears the way for China to pushfor greater dominance in Asia. "The Chinese could not have a greater gift than the one Trump has given them," Bergsten said. Trump "just handed it over on a silver platter and they'll sit back and rake it in."While there's a price tag for the economic cost of withdrawal, according to Bergsten,"the national security costs of turning leadership of that region over to your chief rival are really incalculable."As a US network in Asia, the TPP would have created "a bulwark against China," he said, echoing others who argue that withdrawal impacts the US ability to lead on issueslike the South China Sea, where Beijing makes territorial claims, freedom of navigation and values of human rights, democracy and freedom.Harry Kazianis, director of Defense Studies at the Center for the National Interest, said that "we must remember, TPP, at its core, was never about trade." It's core goal, Kazianis said, was to create a deal of "real strategic" importance.Consumer and advocacy groups such as the Electronic Frontier Foundation, an internet freedom group, complained that the deal was being negotiated behind closed doors and was likely to benefit multinational companies more than ordinary people. And lawmakers such as Vermont Independent Senator Bernie Sanders rallied people against a "fast-track" procedure that barred Congress from amending the deal.Backers of Trump's approach on trade primarily focus on the economic effects, arguing that having a robust American workforce and GDP will project US strength internationally.

 Labor unions and lawmakers focused on domestic issues welcomed the idea of a NAFTA rewrite and praised the TPP move. The AFL-CIO tweeted that the TPP cancelation was a "good first step toward building trade policies that benefit working people." Wisconsin Sen. Tammy Baldwin, a Democrat, wrote Trump on Tuesday sayingshe supported a new approach to trade deals.Trump White House press secretary Sean Spicer, speaking in a January 23 press briefing about the TPP, saying, "this type of multinational agreement is not in our best interest."But other lawmakers and analysts contended that the reorientation on trade will have both negative strategic and economic impact. Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona called the TPP withdrawal "a serious mistake that will have lasting consequences for America's economy and our strategic position in the Asia-Pacific region."Walter Lohman, director of the Asian Studies Center at the Heritage Foundation, a thinktank closely aligned with Vice President Mike Pence, said the US can't simply walk away from the TPP."It would be a mistake not to have a Plan B," Lohman said. "We need to have a Plan B, some sort of approach that would demonstrate our interest in the region."

News: Mexican President: We will not pay for the wall

Mexican President Enrique Peña Nieto said Wednesday his country "will not pay for any wall," defying the claims US President Donald Trump has made. But he did not cancel his trip planned for the United States next week."Mexico does not believe in walls. I've said time again; Mexico will not pay for any wall," he said in a video statement posted to Twitter and translated by CNN from Spanish.Peña Nieto said he would wait for a final report from his top officials who arrived in Washington Wednesday to meet with the Trump administration, and previous meetingswith Mexican legislators, before deciding which steps he would take next.Peña Nieto also said he had ordered government agencies to step up protection for immigrants."I've asked for the minister of Foreign Relations to re-enforce protection measures to our citizens," he said. He added that the 50 Mexican Consulates in the US will be used to defend the rights of immigrants in the country. He also issued a call to action to legislators and civil organizations to help immigrants.Peña Nieto closed his message by saying that Mexico offers and expects respect."Mexico offers its friendship to the people of the United States and expresses its wish to arrive at agreements with its government, deals that will be in favor of Mexico and the Mexicans," he said.Earlier in the day, Trump signed two executive orders directing the construction of a wall on the US-Mexico border, boosting border patrol forces and increasing the numberof immigration enforcement officers who carry out deportations.Meanwhile, the Mexican officials that arrived Wednesday are expected to lay the groundwork for Peña Nieto's visit next week, which Mexican diplomats see as an important opportunity to get past the anti-Mexico rhetoric Trump used during the campaign and a chance to put the US-Mexico relationship back on track."There is ... frustration with our government and ourselves that we have not been able to tell the story of this important relationship," a Mexican diplomat told CNN ahead of the visit. "There are a lot of stereotypes of Mexicans in the US, but there are also stereotypes of Americans in Mexico. It is in the interest of both governments to explainwhat this relationship is and what we can do together."
 In a Monday speech, Peña Nieto said his government is prepared to negotiate with the US if Mexico's national sovereignty is respected. He laid out economic integration and respect for the rights of migrants and the money they send home as his nation's key negotiating points.Trump has suggested some of the $25 billion in annual remittances that migrants return home would be retained to pay for the border wall -- a project Mexico opposes and which Peña Nieto has said Mexico would never pay for."Neither confrontation nor submission. Dialogue is the solution," Peña Nieto said Monday.This won't be the first meeting for the two men. Trump flew to Mexico City during his campaign to meet Peña Nieto and said they discussed a wall Trump has vowed to build on the US southern border, but not his demand that Mexico pay for it -- an assertion the Mexican president later disputed."At the start of the conversation with Donald Trump, I made it clear that Mexico will notpay for the wall," Peña Nieto tweeted, after their meeting.The visit was widely viewed as a public relations disaster for Peña Nieto.

News: Trump orders construction of border wall, boosts deportation force

President Donald Trump on Wednesday started to reshape US immigration enforcement policies via executive action, taking his first steps toward fulfilling some of the most contentious pledges that defined his campaign -- building a border wall andspeeding the deportation of undocumented immigrants.Trump signed two executive orders directing the construction of a wall on the US-Mexico border, boosting border patrol forces and increasing the number of immigration enforcement officers who carry out deportations. The orders also call for stripping sanctuary cities of federal grant funding and announced sweeping new criteria that could make many more undocumented immigrants priorities for deportation."Beginning today, the United States of America gets back control of its borders," Trumptold employees of the Department of Homeland Security at the department's headquarters in Washington.But while Trump directed the "immediate construction of a physical wall on the southern border," the executive orders do not cover the cost of the wall. Trump has repeatedly promised that Mexico will reimburse US taxpayers for the construction costs, a suggestion Mexican officials have rejected out of hand.The president's moves sent alarm bells ringing in immigrant activist circles, where questions had continued to swirl about whether Trump would truly implement many of the hard-line immigration policies he articulated during his campaign.Trump also indicated he does not need Congress to pass new legislation to implement the border control and immigration reform agenda he outlined during his campaign for president, saying he would "work within the existing system and framework.""We do not need new laws," Trump said soon after signing the two executive orders.The executive orders Trump signed Wednesday call for boosting the ranks of Border Patrol forces by an additional 5,000 agents as well as for 10,000 new Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers to carry out deportations. The orders noted that the increases were subject to Congress's appropriation of sufficient funds.Building the wall
Construction of the wall could begin in months, but planning for the massive project is"starting immediately," Trump said Wednesday in an interview with ABC News.Trump confirmed his plans to build the wall with federal funds and then seek reimbursement from Mexico, an idea Mexico has rejected. But negotiations, he said, would begin "relatively soon.""I'm telling you there will be a payment. It will be in a form, perhaps a complicated form," Trump said.Trump also for the first time appeared to articulate on Wednesday the argument he might make to Mexican officials as he looks to compel them to pay for the wall.Trump stressed Wednesday that the wall would "help Mexico" by deterring illegal immigration from countries farther South through Mexico."We are going to stabilize on both sides of the border and we also understand that a strong and healthy economy in Mexico is very good for the United States," Trump said.Trump erases doubt about commitment to hardline policiesTrump's actions leave little doubt about whether his immigration policies as president would differ from his campaign rhetoric.There remained little question, for example, about whether Trump would push to increase deportations of undocumented immigrants. His increases in the number of border patrol and immigration officers -- adding 10,000 immigration officers to an ICE workforce of just 20,000 -- raised the specter of Trump's campaign promise of mass deportations.One of Trump's executive actions was expected to call for tripling "enforcement and removal operations/agents" of the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency, which is charged with arresting and deporting undocumented immigrants living in the US. The order also calls for a 5,000-person increase in Customs and Border Protection personnel.

News: Canadians say they were turned away at US border for trying to attend march

At least two Canadians say they were turned away at the US border after revealing thatthey intended to go to the Women's March.Joseph Decunha said he had driven to a border crossing between Champlain, New York and St. Bernard de Lacolle, Quebec, with his partner and friend who are both Americans, on Thursday night."Upon arrival, we told the border patrol officer we're heading down to DC and will be attending the Women's March and will be in DC the day of the inauguration," he told CNN.The group was asked to go through a secondary inspection.At the second border inspection, they were asked if they were pro- or anti-Trump, Decunha said."We were honest and said we were anti-Trump and at that point, he engaged me directly in conversation because I assumed I was the only Canadian," he said.Decunha elaborated as to why he didn't support Trump and talked about the AffordableCare Act and other policies he disagreed with.The line of questioning veered towards whether they had been to the Middle East and ifthey believe in violence. Decunha said he thought the officer was trying to figure out if they were radicalized.Decunha was told that he was denied entry to the US.
The officer used the term "silent disruption" as the reason and Decunha said he "kept dropping it as though it was a verifiable law regulation to not let me in the country."Angered by the denial, Decunha's partner, who is American, began arguing with the officer. During that exchange, the border patrol officer said Decunha couldn't come into the country under the purpose of tourism.Decunha said he was told, "If you would've said you were pro-Trump, that would've put you in the tourist bin and would have been allowed entry."His two American travel companions were allowed entry, but Decunha said he was denied. He was fingerprinted and photographed before he was allowed to return home.CNN contacted the US Border Patrol and Customs, but has not received a response.Another Canadian told CNN a similar story, also at a border crossing in Quebec.Sasha Dyck said he was part of a group comprised of six Canadians and two French nationals who organized a trip to Washington for the Women's March.They arrived at the border on Thursday and when Dyck mentioned the march, the whole group was pulled over for inspection.They had to submit their phones and passports, he said. Then, their fingerprints and photographs were taken.

News: Trump says he has "running war" with media, gets facts wrong, in CIA speech

President Donald Trump started and finished a speech he gave at the CIA headquarters Saturday afternoon by criticizing the "dishonest media." Several of the things he said were inaccurate.Some members of the media expressed astonishment about the setting and the tone of the speech."The stars on the wall behind Trump, who is talking about his crowd sizes and complaining about the media, mark dead CIA operatives," Los Angeles Times columnist Cathleen Decker tweeted."The president just tried to rally CIA workforce around the idea that media is the enemy. Let that sink in," wrote Mark Mazzetti, a Washington investigations editor at The New York Times.Trump himself called it a "war," further ratcheting up his extreme anti-media rhetoric from the campaign trail."As you know, I have a running war with the media. They are among the most dishonest human beings on Earth," Trump said.Some CIA staffers in the room applauded the insult, but the senior leadership in the front rows did not, according to a CNN producer who was there."They sort of made it sound like I had a 'feud' with the intelligence community." Nonsense, Trump said, "it is exactly the opposite, and they understand that too."In fact, Trump repeatedly and publicly questioned the country's intelligence services amid reporting about Russian attempts to interfere in the election."He referred to it repeatedly in tweets as 'intelligence' in quotes. He was undermining" them, CNN chief national security correspondent Jim Sciutto said afterward.CNN chief political correspondent Dana Bash added, "It's unfortunate that he said that there, on hallowed ground. It happens to be not true that we conflated things that he said. All you have to do is look at his Twitter feed to see what he said."Trump also exaggerated the size of the crowd at his swearing-in ceremony Friday and complained about what he said was unfair coverage.He said it looked to him "like a million, million and a half people" were in attendance for his inauguration, but that a television network (which he did not name) "showed a field where there was practically nobody standing there."He also said the crowd "went all the way back to the Washington Monument," but it did not.Major television networks shared a camera at the top of the monument that showed lots of open space during Trump's inauguration.Trump even described the inauguration weather inaccurately, saying that the skies became "really sunny" after his speech, when in fact it remained cloudy.At the beginning of the speech, Trump struck a more positive tone about the press, saying "they did treat me nicely on that speech yesterday."But at the end, he returned to his anti-media rhetoric. He made a brief mistake by a Time magazine reporter, Zeke Miller, sound like an ongoing scandal.When a small group of journalists, known as a "pool," was allowed intothe Oval Office on Friday evening, there was some confusion about whether a bust of Martin Luther King, Jr. was still there. The bust had been controversial when former President Obama moved it into the Oval Office, replacing a bust of Winston Churchill that had been there.Pool reporter Zeke Miller of Time initially couldn't see the MLK bust, and he sent word to the rest of the press corps that it had been removed.But it was still there, albeit out of Miller's line of sight. A correction went out to the press corps within half an hour.Trump press secretary Sean Spicer tweaked Miller about the incident on Twitter, calling it "a reminder of the media danger of tweet first check facts later."Miller apologized to his colleagues, and Spicer tweeted, "Apology accepted."Trump said the incident showed "how dishonest the media is." He said the MLK bust removal was a "big story," when in fact it was not treated like a big story by any major news outlets.Trump concluded his comments about the press by saying, "I love honesty. I like honest reporting."

NNews: paring Trump's inauguration crowd to the Women's March

It's going to be impossible to gauge how many people exactly attended the inauguration of Donald Trump in 2017 as opposed to Barack Obama in 2009.It's also going to be impossible to gauge how many people exactly attended Trump's inauguration as opposed to the Women's March Saturday organized as a direct rebuttalto Trump the previous day.

RELATED: Get full coverage of the transition to Trump and of the Women's MarchBut there's going to be a lot of conjecture about it. Trump himself talked about his massive crowds during an appearance at the Armed Services Ball Friday night.It's clear that both events attracted many people. Below are pictures from 12:15 p.m. ET on each day from the EarthCam website.Trump talked about crowd size during an appearance at the CIA Saturday and argued the size of his crowds had been misrepresented."We had a massive field of people," he told the US intelligence agency. "You saw that. Packed. I get up this morning, I turn on one of the networks, and they show an empty field. I'm like, wait a minute. I made a speech. I looked out, the field was, it looked like amillion, million and a half people. They showed a field where there were practically nobody standing there. And they said, Donald Trump did not draw well," the President said."It looked honestly like a million and a half people, whatever it was, it was, but it went all the way back to the Washington Monument and I turn on, by mistake, I get this network, and it showed an empty field. Said we drew 250,000 people. Now, that's not bad. But it's a lie. We had 250,000 people," he said.It wasn't clear which outlet Trump was referring to. CNN has not reported a specific size to the crowd since there has been no official estimate.
Trump took the oath of office just before noon Friday and then gave his inaugural address. A rally associated with the march was slated for between 10 a.m. and 1 p.m. on Saturday.Some differences to note: Trump's speech was on the West Front of the Capitol, which was at capacity on Friday. It was cordoned off and empty on Saturday as protesters gathered on the Mall.On the other hand, the Women's March filled the streets around the mall. Those streetswere closed to Trump supporters.His inauguration was on Jan. 20, because of the Constitution, which this year occurred on a Friday. The Women's March was on Saturday, when more people are off work.Metro, Washington's subway system, tweeted Saturday there were 275,000 trips taken Saturday by 11 a.m.On Friday, there were 193,000 trips by 11 a.m., according to Metro.Another important point: Both events are occurring in an area opposed to Trump. Washington, D.C. voted overwhelmingly against Trump last November. He got just 4.1% of the vote in the nation's capital. He also lost the surrounding states of Maryland by 25 percentage points and Virginia by nearly 5 percentage points. It would be a longer trip for a critical mass of Trump supporters than for a critical mass of marchers.

News: More than 1 million marched against Trump in US -- and that's without counting DC

More than a million Americans took to the streets of the United States to protest Donald Trump the day after his inauguration. And that doesn't include the many thousands of people who took part in the main event -- The Women's March on Washington -- for which there was no official crowd estimate.CNN did not make its own crowd estimates, but compiled official estimates from law enforcement agencies for many of the "sister marches" around the country that drew large crowds. There were other marches in cities around the world.Marchers planned events in many cities outside the nation's capitol. CNN looked at media reports citing law enforcement figures in many of those cities. Massive gatherings in places like New York and Denver were not included because authorities there did not offer an official estimate.Crowd sizes became an issue in Washington Saturday when Trump visited the CIA andduring remarks to employees there, accused an unnamed news organization of misrepresenting the attendance for his own inauguration."We had a massive field of people," he told the US intelligence agency. "You saw that. Packed. I get up this morning, I turn on one of the networks, and they show an empty field. I'm like, wait a minute. I made a speech. I looked out, the field was, it looked like amillion, million and a half people. They showed a field where there were practically nobody standing there. And they said, 'Donald Trump did not draw well,' " the President said."It looked honestly like a million and a half people, whatever it was, it was, but it went all the way back to the Washington Monument and I turn on, by mistake, I get this network, and it showed an empty field. Said we drew 250,000 people. Now, that's not bad. But it's a lie," he said.
It wasn't clear which outlet Trump was referring to. CNN has not reported a specific size to the crowd since there has been no official estimate.Later, White House press secretary Sean Spicer went on a tear against the political press for reporting on crowd size. The National Park Service, which oversees the National Mall, has been instructed by Congress not to offer crowd size estimates."This was the largest audience to ever witness an inauguration, period," Spicer said, although evidence suggests otherwise.Photos of Trump's inauguration compared to Barack Obama's in 2009 and also to the Women's March suggest the President drew a smaller crowd, although there could be other reasons, including a heightened security perimeter on Friday for the inaugurationthat was not in place on Saturday for the Women's March and protesters on Friday, who obstructed entrance points to the inauguration and parade route.

News: Trump leaves world diplomats down and out

Donald Trump's first address as US president wasn't just watched by Americans -- the world was listening too, and for now, his inaugural remarks have left some depressed, many wary and everyone waiting for more.After Trump's swearing in, the newly minted president gave a short speech that was light on policy specifics, but hit hard on many of his campaign themes, including protectionism, trade-skepticism and an "America First" isolationism.The tenor and content of the speech left some diplomats "depressed," they said, and sparked an emergency meeting in Canada, one of the largest US trading partners.While some are stressing a need to wait and see what actions follow Trump's broad-brush rhetoric, international envoys and editorial pages also picked up on what the president didn't say -- his to reaffirm the traditional American role as a global leader of an international community."The message was 'America First and screw everyone else,' " said one Arab diplomat."That mind frame is not lost on the world and it is not good for the United States."A Western diplomat said Trump's speech translated to her country as a message that the new US posture will be "America first and we will see about the rest of the world if we have time," a message that left people "depressed."Countries formally welcomed the new president and some quickly issued Trump invitations or accepted them. Israeli President Reuven Rivlin published a letter inviting Trump to visit, while British officials said Prime Minister Teresa May will come to Washington next week for a meeting with Trump that will almost certainly touch on thebroad range of UK-US security and intelligence cooperation issues.Russia, which has celebrated Trump's election, said Prime Minister Vladimir Putin will call Trump in the coming days. Kremlin spokesman Dmitry Peskov said Saturday on Russia's Channel One network that this was a "diplomatic necessity" given various US-Russia issues, including nuclear disarmament and Syria."The acting administration will have to be introduced to all the nuances of our bilateral ties," he said.Trump's remarks, which clocked in under 20 minutes, skated over familiar campaign themes, some put more baldly than others. He said protectionism would lead to strength, blasted other countries for the economic woes of the US, questioned the investment in security alliances, and painted a dark picture of weak borders that allow the US to be pillaged by "the ravages of other countries."The Times of London, a conservative paper owned by Rupert Murdoch, said in an editorial that the president painted a "bleak" picture of "American carnage." The left-leaning Guardian, on its editorial pages, called the speech "by turns bitter, blowhardand banal" and noted that "in 1933, Roosevelt challenged the world to overcome fear. In 2017, Mr Trump told the world to be very afraid."A slew of leaders reached out to Trump quickly to try to establish a relationship with the new administration, among them Mexican President Enrique Pena Nieto. The southern US border is an intense focus for Trump, who has promised to build a wall there and have Mexico pay for it.Pena Nieto's congratulatory call Saturday morning stressed Mexico's willingness to work on an agenda that would benefit both countries, according to his office, as well asthe need to focus on respect for sovereignty and shared responsibility.White House spokesman Sean Spicer said later that Trump and Pena Nieto "talked about a visit on trade, immigration and security" that is to occur on January 31. It's unclear where the meeting will take place.Mexico, the US and Canada form the North American Free Trade Agreement, which Trump, in a statement posted on the White House website Friday, pledges to unilaterally withdraw from if the other two nations don't agree to renegotiate the pact.Little surprise then that Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau also called Trump Saturday to stress the importance of Canada-US ties and remind Trump that 35 states count Canada as their top destination for exports.Trudeau had to calm the frayed nerves of Canadian provincial leaders in a Friday phone call with them. Canada is the US' second-largest trading partner after China, with more than 70% of Canadian exports going to the US. The Prime Minister's office said he spoke to the leaders about efforts to find common ground with the new US administration.Diplomats said Trump's inaugural speech left them deeply concerned about the US commitment to international security networks and organizations like NATO, particularly given Trump's assertion that the US had "subsidized the armies of other countries while allowing for the very sad depletion of our military."Trump has dismissed NATO, seen as the core US security alliance, as "obsolete" and questioned whether the US should continue to led security support to South Korea and Japan, both of which pay for that help. And he has unsettled friends and foes alike in 140-character blasts on Twitter.Diplomats said they were looking to the speech for reassurance that the US remains anchored in its commitment to allies.
