US President Donald Trump said he called Chinese President Xi Jinping a "king" during a state visit to Beijing in 2017 and that the Communist Party leader appeared to appreciate the remark.Speaking Tuesday at the National Republican Congressional Committee spring dinner in Washington, Trump said Xi had denied he was a king but the US leader insisted."He said, 'But I am not king, I am president.' I said 'No, you're president for life, and therefore you're king'," Trump told his audience, prompting laughter."He said, huh. He liked that. I get along with him great."Trump made his visit to China in November 2017, just months before the country's rubber-stamp legislature, the National People's Congress, removed the two-term limit on the Chinese presidency in March 2018.The move cleared the way for Xi to 822

While a CDC report on Wednesday confirms that seniors are most at risk at developing a serious illness from the coronavirus, the virus also poses a risk to younger adults, according to the guidance. The CDC's report, which is contrary to a popular belief that the coronavirus only affects older people, stated that 20% of coronavirus hospitalizations in the United States were from people age 20-44. While fatalities among younger Americans were relatively rare, a number of cases required intensive care. Anywhere between 2 and 4 percent of confirmed coronavirus cases among ages 20 to 44 required intensive care. Also, up to 20% of cases among young adults required hospitalization. "Clinicians who care for adults should be aware that COVID-19 can result in severe disease among persons of all ages," the CDC said in guidance released on Wednesday. "Persons with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 should monitor their symptoms and call their provider for guidance if symptoms worsen or seek emergency care for persistent severe symptoms."While the risk of serious illness isn't minuscule for younger Americans, the risk for older Americans increases with age. The guidance released by the CDC on Wednesday shows that cases among those over age 85 result in death in more than 10%, and hospitalization in between 30 and 70 percent of cases. "The risk for serious disease and death in COVID-19 cases among persons in the United States increases with age," the CDC said. "Social distancing is recommended for all ages to slow the spread of the virus, protect the health care system, and help protect vulnerable older adults. Further, older adults should maintain adequate supplies of nonperishable foods and at least a 30-day supply of necessary medications, take precautions to keep space between themselves and others, stay away from those who are sick, avoid crowds as much as possible, avoid cruise travel and nonessential air travel, and stay home as much as possible to further reduce the risk of being exposed." 2028

Waiting in line is a necessary fate of travel, especially when dealing with security at the airport. It's the reason Trusted Traveler Programs like TSA Precheck and Clear are gaining more traction. "Cut lines. You know, time. Time is money, time is precious, and we need that," Clear customer Shavit Rootman says.The benefit is a faster security process, which also leads to a larger number of what the airline industry calls "trusted travelers".“What we're doing is providing a high level of security and certainty that the person that we're presenting is actually the person that they say they are," Clear Executive Vice President Howard Kass says.But the convenience only comes if you're willing to give up some private information. A form of identification, a photo and a fingerprint are necessary to become a part of the system. No need to be worried, though. Programs say your information isn't sold or shared, and it's well protected. When it comes down to it, the power is in your hands, whether you opt in or not."I don't really worry about the information side of it," says Craig Weller, a customer of both TSA Prechec and Clear. "I think most of that stuff is going to be tracked no matter what you do, so it's not that big of a deal to me, and I have nothing to hide." So, what are these programs? International travelers are often familiar with Global Entry, Nexus and Sentri. Those fall under the control of Customs and Border Protection. But the most popular programs here in the U.S. are TSA Precheck and Clear. TSA Precheck is run by the federal government, and Clear is a private company that coordinates with airports across the country.When taking a closer look at the details, TSA Precheck will cost you for five years. That breaks down to per year. Clear is 9 per year. But before considering cost, it is important to know what each program offers. With TSA Precheck, you won't have to go through the traditional security process."They are allowed to leave their shoes on at the checkpoint, and their belts. They're allowed to leave their lightweight jackets on, they can leave their electronics in their carry-on bag. They don't have to take out their laptops," Lisa Farbstein says. Farbstein is a spokesperson for the Transportation Security Administration.Clear, on the other hand, is a way to skip all lines, including the one at TSA Precheck."I got Clear because at this point there are so many people using TSA Precheck that sometimes the wait is just as long there," Weller said.When it comes to availability, TSA Precheck is in more than 200 airports nationwide, and Clear is in 30. That may not sound like a lot, but travelers say it really depends where you're going."Clear… it's growing so it's in a lot of places, but it's still not in a lot of the places i travel to, so it would only help me here," TSA Precheck customer Mike Lutz says."Most of the major airports now have it. They've been growing I think quickly enough that most of the time it's available," Weller says.How you join each program is also something to consider. For TSA Precheck, you need to make an appointment for an interview, but with Clear, you can do everything online."For Clear it's really easy. It's basically just online," Weller says. "You enter maybe a passport number or a social or something like that and it's almost instantaneous. With TSA Precheck there's an interview, you have to go to a border patrol place, and it's more of a process."Aside from their differences, both TSA Precheck and Clear say the programs are designed to complement each other."I don't want to get to the airport two hours in advance just in case the line's terrible, and if I have Clear and TSA Precheck, I can always cut that window down to about half an hour in advance and still make my flight," Weller says.Each of these programs has its perks. Clear will get you to the front of the security checkpoint faster, and TSA Precheck will get you through that checkpoint without the hassle of taking off your shoes. However, as more people sign up for precheck, those lines get longer as well, so if you're a frequent flyer and you believe "time is money," it may be worth it to sign up for both. 4215

While in jail awaiting trial, Jeffrey Epstein was served with legal papers in connection with a pending lawsuit filed by a woman who says Epstein raped her when she was 15 years old, court documents show.Deputy Sheriff Qin Zhang personally delivered the legal documents to Epstein, the multimillionaire financier accused of sex trafficking, on July 22 at 150 Park Row, the address for the Manhattan Correctional Center where Epstein is being held, the records show.The papers -- a verified petition, order to show cause, exhibits and supporting documents -- relate to allegations by Jennifer Araoz, who has accused Epstein of sexual assault, sexual battery and rape. Araoz first spoke out about the case this month in an interview with NBC's "Today" show.The legal documents were served a day before Epstein was found in his Manhattan jail cell with marks on his neck, sources told CNN. It was not clear to jail officials if the injuries were self-inflicted or the result of an assault, a law enforcement source said.Araoz's complaint against Epstein -- delivered as a draft -- cannot be filed until mid-August, when New York's Child Victims Act, which has ramifications for Epstein's case, goes into effect.The law expands the statute of limitations in child sex abuse cases to give survivors more time to seek criminal charges and to sue their abusers. Starting August 14, adult survivors of child sexual abuse will have one year to sue an abuser or a negligent institution for offenses in New York, no matter how long ago the abuse took place.Epstein is being held without bail pending his trial on charges of conspiracy and sex trafficking of minors. He has pleaded not guilty.The 66-year-old allegedly paid girls as young as 14 to have sex with him at his Manhattan home and his estate in Palm Beach, Florida, between 2002 and 2005. Federal prosecutors say he used employees and associates to lure the girls to his residences, and he allegedly paid some of his victims to recruit other girls for him to abuse.Epstein faced similar accusations in Florida, but his high-powered legal team negotiated a plea deal in 2007 with federal prosecutors in Miami in which he avoided federal charges and pleaded guilty to lesser state prostitution charges.Epstein's attorneys did not respond to a request for comment Tuesday regarding the Araoz petition.The 'Recruiter,' the 'Secretary' and the 'Maid'Araoz claims Epstein repeatedly committed sexual assault and battery on her when she was 14 and 15 years old, including forcibly raping her, the verified petition states.The document seeks the deposition of Epstein in part to identify another potential defendant in the case -- the "Recruiter" -- who conspired with Epstein to identify Araoz as a potential sexual abuse victim and facilitated her "grooming" to be sexually assaulted by Epstein, it states. It also asks the judge to require Epstein to produce records identifying his employees between 2000 and 2003 and logs of everyone who entered or exited his New York City home during that period.A draft complaint targets Epstein, as well as unidentified women called the "Recruiter," the "Secretary" and the "Maid," whom it dubs Jane Does 1, 2 and 3.In the draft complaint, Araoz states she was recruited in New York by a woman who appeared to work for Epstein when she was a 14-year-old high school freshman. Araoz would visit Epstein's home, after which he would direct his secretary to give her 0, the draft complaint states.She later started giving him massages wearing only her underwear, the draft complaint says. Those encounters in Epstein's Manhattan mansion grew more sexual in nature, with Epstein masturbating at the end of the massage, according to the draft complaint.After about a year, when Araoz was 15, Epstein forcibly raped her without a condom, the document states."Araoz was petrified, felt trapped and didn't know what to do, so she just did as she was told," the draft complaint states. "Epstein held her tightly and forcibly raped her."Araoz explained further her thoughts at the time in her interview with NBC."I thought it was my fault, I thought I was obligated. I didn't know better," Araoz told NBC.Araoz never went back to Epstein's home after that and only told a few people close to her about the incident, she said. She refused to go back to her high school, which was just blocks from Epstein's home, and transferred to a school in Queens to avoid contact with him and the recruiter, the draft complaint says.The draft complaint also describes some of the contents of Epstein's Upper East Side mansion, including a trophy room of taxidermied animals."The room had marble floors with extremely high ceilings, mahogany wood with deep reds, and was filled with exotic, even endangered animals, including a giraffe and other rare specimens," the document states. "There were skins covering parts of the floor with more exotic animals." 4930

WASHINGTON, D.C. – President Donald Trump and his top advisers are being pressured to disclose more detail about the intelligence that led him to order the killing of top Iranian Gen. Qassem Soleimani. The general's death has greatly heightened tension with Tehran. Trump contended Tuesday that his decision saved American lives and that members of Congress will be briefed soon on what led to the attack. Defense Secretary Mark Esper tells reporters at the Pentagon that Iranian threats against Americans were “'days away" from being executed. Democrats are calling for more information to be declassified. 619
