SHE ATTENDED EVERY INAUGURATION BUT ONE SINCE JIM CARTER TOOK OFFICE .>> RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU .>>>> TOOK THE FRAN MALIK AND HIS FRIENDS TOOK THE BRAVE STEP ADVERTISING THEIR RELIGION, DESPITE MR. TRUMP'S VOW TO BAN ALL MUSLIMS. BUT MALIK TOLD US HE TOOK SOME SOLACE THAT THE PRESIDENT SINGLED OUT RADICAL ISLAM AND NOT ALL MUSLIMS .>> RADICAL PEOPLE ARE BAD PEOPLE. THEY'RE THE TERRORISTS. THEY'RE THE ACTUAL TERRORISTS. SO WE NEED TO STOP THEM. I DONALD JOHN TRUMP DO .>> Reporter: AT THE END OF THE DAY, PAT BALDERMAN SUMMED UP WHAT MANY TOLD US .>> I HOPE HE CAN DO HALF OF WHAT HE SAID HE THINKS HE CAN DO.

TODAY, THEY DID NOT FILL THAT AREA .>> Pelley: KRIS VAN CLEAVE ON THE MALL TONIGHT. KRIS, THANK YOU. THE 70- YEAR- OLD PRESIDENT WASTED NO TIME GETTING TO WORK TODAY. HERE'S MARGARET BRENNAN .>> THE TIME FOR EMPTY TALK IS OVER. NOW ARRIVES THE HOUR OF ACTION .>> Reporter: WITHIN HOURS OF BEING SWORN IN, THE NEW PRESIDENT GOT DOWN TO BUSINESS >> KNOWN AS BOWK AROUND INSTRUCTING FEDERAL AGENCIES AND DEPARTMENTS TO FREEZE REGULATIONS .>> FROM THIS DAY FORWARD, A NEW VISION WILL GOVERN OUR LAND .>> NOW PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL TRY TO TURN HIS VISION INTO POLICY. THAT REQUIRES GETTING CONGRESS TO APPROVE THE REST OF HIS CABINET, NOW THAT RETIRED GENERALS JAMES MATTIS AND JOHN KELLY HAS BEEN CONFIRMED AS THE PRESIDENT ALSO PLANS TO ANNOUNCE HIS NOMINEE TO THE SUPREME COURT WITHIN TWO WEEKS. THERE'S BEEN A VACANCY ON THE BENCH SINCE THE DEATH OF ANTONIN SCALIA ALMOST A YEAR AGO. AND NEXT WEEK, MEXICAN OFFICIALS WILL COME TO WASHINGTON TO BEGIN TALKS ABOUT RENEGOTIATING THE NORTH AMERICAN FREE TRADE AGREEMENT AND BUILDING A BORDER WALL. MR. TRUMP MAY ALSO DECIDE TO RELOCATE THE U. S. EMBASSY TO JERUSALEM, A MOVE THAT WOULD SEND SHOCKWAVES THROUGH THE MIDDLE EAST .>> SO NICE TO SEE YOU. HOW ARE YOU .>> Reporter: THE FIRST FAMILY WILL ALSO NEED TO GET ACCUSTOMED TO LIFE IN THE WHITE HOUSE. THIS WEEK, THE OBAMA FAMILY'S BELONGINGS WERE MOVED OUT OF THE EXECUTIVE MANSION, AND TODAY, IN JUST A FEW SHORT HOURS, THE TRUMP FAMILY'S WERE MOVED IN AND UNPACKED. PRESIDENT TRUMP WILL BEGIN HIS FIRST DAY ON THE JOB WITH A HISTORICALLY LOW APPROVAL RATING WITH THE AMERICAN PUBLIC, AND THAT COULD START TO COMPLICATE HIS AGENDA ON CAPITOL HILL .>> Pelley: MARGARET BRENNAN FOR US ON THE PARADE ROUTE THERE IN FRONT OF THE WHITE HOUSE TONIGHT. MARGARET, THANK YOU. NOW, LET'S BRING IN AMERICA'S FAVORITE WASHINGTON CORRESPONDENT BOB SCHIEFFER. BOB, WHAT DID YOU SEE TODAY ?>> WELL, IT WAS THE SHORTEST INAUGURAL SPEECH IN A LONG, LONG TIME. I THINK IN SOME WAYS, THOUGH, IT WAS THE MOST SHOCKING. WE DIDN'T HEAR DONALD TRUMP TALKING ABOUT BUILDING A WALL ON THE SOUTHERN BORDER. IN SOME WAYS, THOUGH, HE SEEMED TO BE TALKING ABOUT BUILDING A WALL AROUND THE COUNTRY. HE TALKED ABOUT " BUY AMERICAN ,"" HIRE AMERICAN ." HE TALKED ABOUT BAD TRADE DEALS. HE TALKED ABOUT TRADITIONAL ALLIES, AND FOR TOO LONG, HE SAID, " WE HAVE TRIED TO PROTECT THEIR BORDERS WHILE NEGLECTING OUR OWN ." THIS WAS NOT A REPUBLICAN MESSAGE. THIS WAS SOMETHING MUCH, MUCH DIFFERENT. AND TO ME, THE SHOCKING PART OF IT WAS THE WAY HE TORE INTO OFFICIAL WASHINGTON, REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRAT. THERE WAS NO OUTREACH TO EITHER SIDE AS THE LEADERS OF WASHINGTON SAT ON THAT PLATFORM WITH HIM. I ALSO THINK, SCOTT, IF HE'S TALKING ABOUT BUILDING A WALL AROUND AMERICA, I'M NOT SURE THERE'S A CONSENSUS IN EITHER PARTY RIGHT NOW FOR THAT. I THINK HE'S GOING TO HAVE SOME ROUGH GOING AHEAD .>> Pelley: IN THE FEW SECONDS WE HAVE, CAN HE MAKE PROGRESS WITH THE CONGRESS NOW ?>> WELL, THAT REMAINS TO BE SEEN. I'M NOT SURE-- WHAT HE SAID SOUNDED GOOD TO THE PEOPLE WHO PUT HIM UP THERE. HIS HARD- CORE SUPPORTERS. I'M NOT SURE HOW WELL IT WENT OVER WITH LEADERS IN EITHER THE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRATIC PARTY. HE CAN'T DO ANYTHING BY HIMSELF. HE'S GOT TO HAVE SOME HELP UP THERE, AND I THINK HE HAS TO START TOMORROW TO TRY TO FIND THAT BECAUSE I'M NOT SURE THIS HELPED HIM TODAY .>> Pelley: THE INSIGHT OF BOB SCHIEFFER. BOB, THANK YOU SO MUCH. FOR ONLY THE FOURTH TIME IN AMERICAN HISTORY, THERE ARE NOW FIVE LIVING FORMER PRESIDENTS, JIMMY CARTER, GEORGE H. W. BUSH, BILL CLINTON, GEORGE W. BUSH, AND BARACK OBAMA. GEORGE H. W. BUSH, 92 YEARS OLD, WAS THE ONLY ONE WHO WAS NOT AT THE INAUGURATION TODAY. HE IS IN A HOUSTON HOSPITAL RECOVERING FROM PNEUMONIA. TODAY, A BREATHING TUBE WAS REMOVED, AND HE IS IMPROVING. BLOCKS FROM THE WHITE HOUSE BUT FAR REMOVED FROM THE PEACEFUL TRANSFER OF POWER, ANTI- TRUMP PROTESTS TURNED VIOLENT TODAY. MORE THAN 200 PEOPLE WERE ARRESTED. SIX POLICE OFFICERS WERE WOUNDED. HERE'S ERROL BARNETT .>> Reporter: VANDALISM AIMED AT DOWNTOWN BUSINESSES PROMPTED RIOT POLICE TO DESCEND ON THESE UNRULY PROTESTERS. ONE DEMONSTRATOR THREW A FLASH- BANG GRENADE BACK AT POLICE. IT EXPLODED IN AN OFFICER'S FACE, LEAVING HIM WITH MINOR INJURIES. THIS IS K. STREET. IT'S WHERE MANY LOBBYISTS HAVE THEIR HEADQUARTERS IN IN WASHINGTON, BUT TODAY, IT APPEARS LIKE A CONFLICT ZONE. YOU'RE SEEING AN EXAMPLE OF THE THOUSANDS OF POLICE OFFICERS WHO HAVE BEEN OUT IN FORCE. THESE ARE METRO OFFICERS IN RIOT GEAR. THEY'RE TRYING TO PROTECT PEOPLE AND PREVENT ANY MORE BUSINESSES FROM BEING DAMAGED. VIVIAN HAS LIVED IN WASHINGTON SINCE THE 1980s .>> I'M JUST AMAZED AT HOW MANY PROTESTS THERE ARE AGAINST THE NEW ADMINISTRATION, AND I THINK RIGHTFULLY SO .>> Reporter: THIS TRUMP SUPPORTER COULD BARELY GET A WORD IN WITH PROTESTERS SURROUNDING HIM. HANNAH ZHANG THINKS THE COUNTRY IS AT A CROSSROADS .>> I THINK TRUMP'S ELECTION IS KIND OF REALLY SHOWING THE TWO OPPOSITE SIDES OF WHERE AMERICA IS STANDING RIGHT NOW .>> Reporter: MORE THAN 60 GROUPS WITH VARYING AGENDAS HAD PERMITS TO DEMONSTRATE. MOST AGREED ON

THE PRESIDENT HIMSELF. SHANELLE JACOBS SAYS PROTESTERS HAVE A RIGHT TO FREE SPEECH. WHAT DO YOU MAKE OF THE THOUSANDS OF OTHER PEOPLE WHO PROTESTED TODAY FOR MANY DIFFERENT REASONS ?>> I SAY MORE POWER TO THEM. I'M PROUD OF THEM FOR ACTUALLY STEPPING UP AND SAYING THAT THEY DON'T SEE EYE TO EYE WITH THE-- WITH PRESIDENT TRUMP .>> Reporter: MICHAEL COOLUM DROVE FROM CONNECTICUT. AND IT'S ONLY HIS FIRST DAY. WHY NOT GIVE HIM SPACE AND TIME TO PERHAPS DELIVER ON THE THINGS THAT YOU WANT ?>> I DON'T THINK THAT YOU CAN EVER WAIT TO DEMAND YOUR RIGHTS .>> Reporter: NOW, TOMORROW WE'LL LIKELY SEE EVEN BIGGER ANTI- TRUMP PROTESTS, SCOTT, WHEN AT LEAST 200, 000 PEOPLE ARE EXPECTED TO FLOOD THE NATIONAL MALL FOR THE WOMEN'S MARCH ON WASHINGTON .>> Pelley: ERROL BARNETT IN WASHINGTON FOR US TONIGHT. ERROL, THANK YOU. MR. TRUMP HAS SAID REPEATEDLY THAT HE WANTS A BETTER RELATIONSHIP WITH RUSSIA. SO WE ASKED OUR FOREIGN CORRESPONDENT, ELIZABETH PALMER, TO GIVE US THE VIEW FROM MOSCOW .>> Reporter: WHETHER PRESIDENT PUTIN WAS IN HIS OFFICE BEHIND THE KREMLIN WALLS TONIGHT OR AT HOME, HE MADE NO COMMENT. EARLIER TODAY, HIS SPOKESMAN DMITRY PESKOV SAID PUTIN WAS UNLIKELY TO WATCH THE INAUGURATION LIVE, BUT CATCH IT LATER ON THE NEWS ." DONALD TRUMP ," SAID PESKOV, " IS NOT OUR SOUL MATE ." THAT'S A FROSTY CHANGE FROM THE SURPRISINGLY WARM ENDORSEMENT MR. PUTIN GAVE MR. TRUMP DURING THE CAMPAIGN ." HE'S A COLORFUL AND POWERFUL MAN, AND HE SAYS HE WANTS TO MOVE TO DEEPER RELATIONS. HOW CAN WE NOT WELCOME THAT ?" TOP OF RUSSIA'S WISH LIST IS TO BE TREATED BY AMERICA AS AN EQUAL, NOT A MERE " REGIONAL POWER ," AS BARACK OBAMA ONCE CALLED IT. ANDREI SOLDATOV IS AN EXPERT ON CYBER ESPIONAGE, AND HE SAYS RUSSIAN HACKING DURING THE ELECTION CAMPAIGN WAS MEANT TO DAMAGE HILLARY CLINTON, BUT IT HAD AN UNEXPECTED BENEFIT .>> SO RUSSIA AND THE RUSSIAN ROLE BECAME A BIG STORY .>> Reporter: AND IS THAT GOOD OR BAD FOR RUSSIA ?>> IT'S IMPORTANT FOR MANY PEOPLE IN THE KREMLIN TO FEEL THAT THEY MIGHT BE TREATED AS IMPORTANT COUNTRY, SOMETHING LIKE A SUPERPOWER, AND THAT'S ACTUALLY GIVES YOU SOMETHING TO BE PROUD OF .>> Reporter: IMPORTANT ENOUGH THAT THE NEW TRUMP ADMINISTRATION WILL DECIDE TO IGNORE ISSUES THAT HAVE POISONED U. S .- RUSSIA RELATIONS, LIKE THE INVASION OF CRIMEA, OR THE HACKING OPERATION. AND IF PRESIDENT TRUMP WON'T OFFER RUSSIA WHAT AMOUNTS TO A FRESH START, SCOTT, THERE ARE PLENTY OF SIGNS THE KREMLIN'S PREPARED TO PLAY HARDBALL .>> Pelley: ELIZABETH PALMER IN RED SQUARE FOR US TONIGHT. LIZ, THANK YOU. COMING UP NEXT ON THIS EXPANDED EDITION OF THE " CBS EVENING NEWS :" WILL MR. TRUMP'S BUSINESS INTERESTS CAUSE PROBLEMS FOR HIS PRESIDENCY? AND LATER, STEVE HARTMAN WITH KIDS GETTING A LESSON IN CIVICS AND CIVILITY .>> Pelley: PRESIDENTS ARE EXEMPT FROM THE FEDERAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST LAW, BUT PRESIDENT TRUMP ENTERS OFFICE WITH AN ESPECIALLY COMPLEX PORTFOLIO FROM HIS DECADES IN BUSINESS. HERE'S ANNA WERNER .>> Reporter: DONALD TRUMP IS NOT ONLY NOW THE PRESIDENT. HE'S ALSO EFFECTIVELY HIS OWN LANDLORD AT THE TRUMP INTERNATIONAL HOTEL ON PENNSYLVANIA AVENUE. A BUILDING HIS COMPANY LEASES FROM THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT .>> MY THEME TODAY IS FIVE WORDS-- UNDERBUDGET AND AHEAD OF SCHEDULE. THAT'S WHAT WE DID .>> Reporter: IT'S A POTENTIAL PROBLEM FOR PRESIDENT TRUMP SINCE THE LEASE FOR THE OLD POST OFFICE BUILDING SPECIFIES NO ELECTED OFFICIALS IN THE U. S. GOVERNMENT CAN HOLD THE LEASE, AND EXPERTS SAY MR. TRUMP'S CONFLICTS OF INTEREST ONLY BEGIN THERE. HE REJECTED ADVICE FROM SOME GOVERNMENT ETHICS LAWYERS TO SELL HIS COMPANIES OR PUT THEM IN A BLIND TRUST, NEITHER OF WHICH HE'S REQUIRED BY LAW TO DO. THE PATH HE CHOSE-- TO GIVE HIS ELDEST SONS, DONALD JR. AND ERIC TRUMP, FULL CONTROL OF THE MULTIBILLION- DOLLAR BILLION BUSINESS .>> THEY'RE NOT GOING TO DISCUSS IT WITH ME. AGAIN, I DON'T HAVE TO DO THIS .>> Reporter: HE ALSO SAID HE WOULD HIRE A NEW ETHICS ADVISER TO REVIEW ALL DOMESTIC DEALS AND SAID THE COMPANY WILL NOT ENTER INTO ANY NEW FOREIGN TRANSACTIONS. BUT CBS NEWS HAS COUNTED AT LEAST 10 COUNTRIES, INCLUDING TURKEY AND THE UNITED ARAB EMIRATES, WHERE MR. TRUMP'S COMPANIES THAT HAVE BUSINESS INTERESTS .>> HE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT HE NEEDED TO DO AND WAS UNWILLING TO DO IT .>> Reporter: GEORGE WASHINGTON UNIVERSITY LAW PROFESSOR STEVE SCHOONER POINTS OUT THE PRESIDENT COULD STILL MAKE PROFITS OFF HIS COMPANIES .>> DECISIONS THAT HE MAKES AS PRESIDENT WILL IMPACT HIS. BOTTOM LINE. HE WILL PERSONALLY BENEFIT OR BE HURT, BASED ON A NUMBER OF DECISIONS HE MAKES AS PRESIDENT .>> Reporter: THE PRESIDENT HAS SAID THAT ANY PROFITS FROM FOREIGN GOVERNMENT HOTEL GUESTS WOULD GO TO THE U. S. TREASURY. BUT ALREADY, HIS STATUS AS PRESIDENT APPEARS TO BE MIXING GOVERNMENT AND BUSINESS AS MR. TRUMP VISITED HIS OWN HOTEL FOR AN UNSCHEDULED DINNER ON WEDNESDAY, AND A LUNCHEON HERE YESTERDAY. SCOTT .>> Pelley: ANNA WERNER IN FRONT OF THE TRUMP HOTEL IN WASHINGTON. ANNA, THANK YOU. WHEN WE COME BACK, SURVIVORS ARE PULLED FROM A HOTEL SWALLOWED BY AN AVALANCHE .>> Pelley: IN NEW YORK TODAY, THE MEXICAN DRUG LORD JOAQUIN GUZMAN PLEADED NOT GUILTY TO FEDERAL CHARGES THAT HE RAN THE WORLD'S BIGGEST DRUG TRAFFICKING ORGANIZATION ." EL CHAPO ," OR " SHORTIE" AS HE IS KNOWN, COULD FACE LIFE IN PRISON IF CONVICTED. LAST NIGHT, GUZMAN WAS FLOWN TO THE UNITED STATES FROM MEXICO, WHERE HE HAD TWICE ESCAPED FROM PRISON. FEDERAL PROSECUTORS WILL ATTEMPT TO SEIZE $ 14 BILLION IN DRUG PROFITS. IN CENTRAL ITALY, RESCUERS CHEERED AS 10 SURVIVORS, SOME OF THEM CHILDREN, WERE PULLED FROM A HOTEL BURIED FOR TWO DAYS UNDER 16. 5 FEET OF SNOW. THIS WAS FROM AN AVALANCHE WHICH HAD BEEN TRIGGERED BY EARTHQUAKES. OTHERS HAVE BEEN LOCATED AND ARE IN THE PROCESS OF BEING RESCUED. AT LEAST FOUR BODIES HAVE BEEN FOUND. MORE THAN A DOZEN PEOPLE ARE STILL MISSING. COMING UP NEXT, WHAT STEVE HARTMAN LEARNED FROM HIGH SCHOOL KIDS AT THE INAUGURATION .>> Pelley: DONALD TRUMP STEPPED INTO THE OVAL OFFICE THIS EVENING FOR THE FIRST TIME AS PRESIDENT, AND HE SIGNED THREE DOCUMENTS, INCLUDING AN EXECUTIVE ORDER. SOME HIGH SCHOOL KIDS FROM FLORIDA WENT TO THE INAUGURATION, NOT JUST TO LEARN BUT ALSO TO TEACH. STEVE HARTMAN MET THEM " ON THE ROAD ".">> Reporter: YOU COULD TELL FROM THE LONG HUGS THAT THIS WAS NO ORDINARY FIELD TRIP. IN FACT, FOR THESE STUDENTS FROM IMMOKALEE HIGH SCHOOL IN FLORIDA, GETTING A CHANCE TO ATTEND THE INAUGURATION WAS ONE OF THE GREATEST OPPORTUNITIES OF THEIR LIVES .>> THEY WERE JUST LIKE, " ALL RIGHT, EVERYBODY'S GOING ." AND EVERYBODY WAS LIKE .>> YEAH !>> I WAS LIKE, MAN, THIS IS AMAZING .>> TO BE GIVEN THIS OPPORTUNITY IS, HONESTLY, A GREAT HONOR .>> Reporter: IT IS EXACTLY WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT TO HEAR FROM DONALD TRUMP FANS. DID YOU GUYS ALL SUPPORT DONALD TRUMP? BUT HERE'S THE TWIST .>> NO COMMENT .>> HE'S DIFFERENT .>> YOU HAVE TO LOOK AT IT FROM, LIKE, A DIFFERENT PERSPECTIVE .>> Reporter: TRUTH IS, DURING THE CAMPAIGN, MANY STUDENTS HERE WERE SCARED TO DEATH OF MR. TRUMP. IMMOKALEE IS A TOWN OF FIELD WORKERS, IMMIGRANTS, SOME LEGAL, SOME NOT. MANY OF THEIR CHILDREN ARE THE DREAMERS, THE VERY PEOPLE PRESIDENT TRUMP HAS, AT TIMES, THREATENED TO EVICT .>> AND JUST, LIKE, WHAT HE SAYS HE'LL DO IS KIND OF SCARY .>> AND YOU NEVER KNOW WHEN YOU MIGHT GET THAT PHONE CALL AND YOU SAY, " OKAY, MY FRIEND JUST GOT TAKEN AWAY .">> Reporter: WHICH IS WHY WHEN THE NON- PROFIT IMMOKALEE FOUNDATION OFFERED TO SEND SOME OF THE HIGH SCHOOL'S BEST AND BRIGHTEST TO THE INAUGURATION, THERE WAS SIGNIFICANT PUSH- BACK .>> OH! MY MOM .>> WHY ARE YOU GOING? WHY ARE YOU SUPPORTING HIM ?>> SHE WAS MAD AT ME. SHE ALMOST DIDN'T LET ME COME .>> Reporter: BRIAN'S PARENTS ARE BOTH FIELD WORKERS. UP TO THE MORNING OF THE TRIP HIS MOM WAS STILL REPEATING, " USTED NO TIENE QUE IR ," YOU DON'T HAVE TO GO .>> OUT OF RESPECT, THOUGH .>> BECAUSE HE HAD BEEN OUR PRESIDENT, SO WHETHER WE LIKE IT OR NOT, THAT'S WHAT HE'S GOING TO BE .>> Reporter: TO SOME, THAT MAY SOUND LIKE SURRENDER. TO OTHERS, IT'S BOLD AND BRAVE. BUT TO THE KIDS FROM IMMOKALEE, THEIR ATTENDANCE IN WASHINGTON, D. C. WAS NOT A STATEMENT OF ANY KIND. THIS WASN'T ABOUT TRUMP, THE PRESIDENT, THIS WAS ABOUT WE, THE PEOPLE, ABOUT COMING TOGETHER TO WITNESS FIRSTHAND ONE OF THE COUNTRY'S MOST DEFINING TRADITIONS .>> CONGRATULATIONS, MR. PRESIDENT .>> Reporter: ADULTS SOMETIMES THINK EVERYTHING HAS TO BE ABOUT FURTHERING AN AGENDA. SO THANKS TO THESE YOUNG PEOPLE FOR REMINDING US THAT ANY CIVIL DISCOURSE SHOULD AT LEAST BEGIN WITH CIVILITY. STEVE HARTMAN, " ON THE ROAD ," IN IMMOKALEE, FLORIDA .>> Pelley: AND THAT'S THE " CBS EVENING NEWS" FOR TONIGHT. GAYLE KING AND JOHN DICKERSON WILL BRING YOU " CHANGE AND
