4:00 pm
a federal investigation, the defiant mayor saying she has no plans to step down or back down, just cannot catch a break. >> well, guess what? i'm not going down like that. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is the four. >> and we start with an important new development related to this investigation. ktvu confirmed late this afternoon. tony brass has officially withdrawn as the defense attorney representing oakland mayor shang tao. the move comes hours after mayor tao delivered those fiery remarks, railing against this investigation. welcome to the for. i'm alex savage and i'm greg lee. >> ktvu. tom vacar joins us live from the newsroom with more on the mayor's remarks. tom. >> well, after way too many days of silence, oakland's beleaguered mayor came out swinging. oakland mayor shang
4:01 pm
tao delivered a speech full of defiance, anger, emotion and blame. she took no questions on her attorney's advice. >> i have done nothing wrong. i am confident that i will not be charged with a crime because i am innocent. my role as your mayor continues the federal raid and the furor it caused her household is top of her mind. >> she directly accused the media of fanning the flames and bending the facts. >> i want to know how the tv cameras knew to show up on my sleepy residential street. so early in the morning to capture footage of the raid. she's prepared for legal warfare. i want to know what probable cause the fbi has. what evidence have they collected that justifies raiding the home of a city mayor? >> tao talked about her enemies. >> i want to know more about the handful of billionaires from san francisco and from piedmont who are #### bent on running me out of office. we now have an active
4:02 pm
recall campaign that is a waste of time and public resources. >> it obviously wears on her. >> i was born poor in america, and that teaches you a lot about the world from day one. feeling the injustice in every bone in your body, knowing if you cry out and demand for answers, you will do nothing but cement the judgment they have rooted deep in their mind. >> she said she commiserates with oaklanders who've suffered similar indignities. >> and no matter how hard you strive and push and fight and stay positive, and that you don't give up because you believe in yourself and you know what? you have to offer this world that you just cannot catch a break. >> the battle is on. >> i will not be bullied and i will not be disparaged, and i will not be threatened out of this office. nothing is going to distract me from building on the progress we have made in the last 18 months, and it is that
4:03 pm
claim of progress, or lack of it, that is at the root of this. >> recall again, shang tao's defense lawyer, tony brass, who was her official attorney last friday speaking on her behalf, texted me that he's withdrawn as her lawyer whether she gets another one we haven't heard. reporting live. tom baker, ktvu, fox two news. >> okay, tom, thank you for more on the legal implications of this investigation for the mayor and what may come next here, we're joined by jonathan abel, associate professor at uc law, sf professor, thank you so much for taking the time this afternoon. here, let me start. if we could, with this latest development. we just learned a short time ago, the mayor's defense attorney no longer working with her here on this case. what, if anything, does that signal to you? and do you believe this could have anything to do with the mayor's public comments? we heard today? >> yeah. i mean, we don't know why he left, but the timing would make sense to me that he did not approve of the comments
4:04 pm
at the press conference. of course, that doesn't mean the mayor did anything wrong. the client gets to direct what's in her best interest. and when an attorney has a disagreement, the attorney can either go along with the client or can recommend finding another another attorney. so there's nothing untoward. but if i had to guess that it was probably precipitated by today's statements right, professor? >> digging into the mayor's comments a little bit, she suggested broadly that this raid was perhaps linked to the political opposition that she is facing in a court. is that an effective defense? >> i mean, if this is politically motivated, that could be an effective defense. but at this point, she hasn't actually been charged with a crime. and it's very possible that the evidence they're looking for implicates other people, but not her. so there's so many unknowns and what i heard in the press conference, was the mayor voicing many, many
4:05 pm
questions about what what this investigation is about. so for from the outside, it could be that she's deeply implicated or it could be that she has, no involvement in any criminal activity. it is really hard to reserve judgments, but but really, we don't we don't know what they were looking for at this point. >> yeah, absolutely. >> i mean, a lot of unanswered questions. we know here so early on, the mayor in her comments today, professor essentially suggested that the raid at her home by the fbi was was not necessary, that there would have been another another route to go down to, to, to acquire whatever evidence or whatever information agents wanted to acquire. do you think there is any likelihood that there was another option for agents to, to get whatever they needed? >> i mean, there are two options. if they are looking for something in that house, they could contact her and ask her to
4:06 pm
turn it over. or if there's probable cause and they have a judge sign off on it, then they can execute a search warrant. and so some of the considerations that go into that , the agents or the prosecutors may have trusted her to turn over all of the information, or they could have been worried that some information would be destroyed, that's that is a reason that search warrants get served, but there could be still other other considerations. and it may be, it it may be that she would have turned everything, everything over, but they didn't want to, risk the investigation at some point, i want to add, i mean, there there are hundreds if not thousands of search warrants served in, in this area every year. so so, it doesn't mean that she did anything wrong , but it does mean that a judge found probable cause that there is evidence in that house. >> professor, now that we have seen raids at multiple properties, including the house of mayor shengtao, what do we
4:07 pm
anticipate to happen next in this investigation? >> well, it probably depends what they did. they find what they were looking for. and after reviewing the evidence, do they think that a crime has been committed? so if it goes that route, then in some people will be charged with crimes, and then as part of the process of adjudicating those charges that means playing the charges out in court, the evidence will come forward and, the search warrants will be unsealed, some of them, and so we may learn everything about what they were looking for. but there's another route and it's possible that they didn't find anything incriminating in that house or they found something, and ultimately they decide not to charge her or anyone. so sometimes search warrants are served and no prosecution ever results. and in the federal system, those search warrants could remain sealed. so we may
4:08 pm
never know, finally. here, professor, can we get your your take on how you believe the mayor should try to defend against, whatever may be coming here in this investigation from a legal standpoint, obviously, we talk about the development with her attorney cutting ties with her. what do you think is going to be the most effective way to defend against any potential charges that could be coming as a result of this investigation? >> okay. so there are really two things that i think she needs to do. you know, one is just as a as a person, as a, potential defendant, there's a whole legal process. and in our system, you never have to prove your innocence. it's always the government's responsibility to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that you're guilty of a crime. so just as as a regular person who's had a search warrant served, she can choose to cooperate. she can choose not to cooperate. she can put on a
4:09 pm
defense. if she's charged, she will certainly get a lawyer if she needs one. a lot of people would be willing to serve as her attorney. so that's that's the narrow legal question. and like i said, there are lots and lots of search warrants and prosecutions that get served. but she's the mayor of a city and so she also has to mount, a political defense. and i think this is particularly hard because there's this there's now a recall, pending. and so she is going to have to convince voters to continue to trust her. and so the political side of it, she probably will have to do more to, to convince voters than she would if she were, if she were just a regular person, criminal defendants. and she has not been charged. but even if she were charged, never have to say anything. that's the bedrock of our system. you're innocent until proven guilty. but politicians, it's different. >> yeah. it goes beyond the legal, the legal concerns and the legal questions. yeah. all
4:10 pm
right, professor, we appreciate the time. that's jonathan abel from uc law sph. thank you for the time. thank you. all right. let's shift now and talk about our weather here in the bay area because things getting interesting today. this is a live look here out over the oakland estuary. and looking towards san francisco. looks pretty calm here in this shot. but meteorologist roberta gonzales joining us now to let us know that we have some storms here, sort of moving across the southern part of the bay area here toward the south bay, bringing some lightning, and also into the eastern portion of our bay area. >> now traversing all the way in towards travis. and i got to tell you, i've been jumping up and down in excitement because we saw that there was the potential of the development of the dry lightning and the subtropical moisture moving into the bay area today. and so when it pans out, you're like, yes, yes, it happened. and there it is right now, this is our live storm tracker imagery. and as we zoom on in, we're picking up
4:11 pm
lots of activity in the form of that right there. those lightning strikes from tracy through manteca. i also noticed some lightning around the pleasanton area. and look at those cells. those are some pretty heavy duty rain showers over the diablo mountain range to the east of livermore, but trying to make tracks up towards the altamont pass. now, if this was to stay there and just sit over the area, it could produce over two inches of rain in just one hour. but that's not happening. it's moving out very rapidly in an easterly fashion. we do see the cloud build up now over the mount hamilton area, and as we zip on around to the santa clara valley, you see from milpitas through san jose into campbell, we do have the light rain showers falling just enough to wet the pavement for the evening commute. we do have the light rain around the airport around mineta international airport, not seeing anything as far as the diversity with flights are concerned, but we do have the light rain also in los gatos then backing through the
4:12 pm
santa cruz mountain areas. and this is something really worth watching, because when it's not raining, you could have that right there. that potential of dry lightning, which is the thunderstorms, which contains the lightning, and the light rain, which is not actually hitting the land mass in some areas, but dry lightning can indeed produce the potential of fires due to the lightning, its cloud to ground lightning. so we're keeping a watchful eye on that situation. partly cloudy skies in the forecast for your tuesday from all of this subtropical moisture and the week ahead will be slightly cooler. and we're going to wrap all this up. we're going to track all the lightning bolts. and that's still coming up in a matter of minutes. >> all right roberta thank you. we'll see you soon. two years since the fall of roe v wade. still ahead. the effect on abortion rights around the nation coming up here on the four this afternoon, we'll talk live with an expert about the patchwork of
4:13 pm
4:14 pm
4:15 pm
overturning roe v wade. protesters gathered outside the high court. the demonstration, organized by the women's march, a group of about 40 people, demanded lawmakers take steps to preserve reproductive health care, decrying the dobbs decision. abortion rights set to be a major issue in this year's presidential election. the ruling has left states to decide whether to restrict the procedure or not, leaving a patchwork across the nation, according to the center for reproductive rights, more than two dozen have near-total bans or restrict the procedure earlier than roe v wade did. more than a dozen states and the district of columbia have laws that protect the right to abortion. three states, including california, codify the right to abortion in their state constitutions and the legal battle is ongoing in others. for more on the state of abortion in america, we're joined by michelle goodwin, professor of constitutional law and global health policy at georgetown
4:16 pm
university. professor appreciate the time. let me start by asking when you look at that patchwork of abortion laws, what is the landscape for abortion access in the u.s. in these times? >> it's really quite incoherent. this is a time of a new jane crow. one could say what there was with roe v wade was that no matter what state you lived in, there were protections. there were protections in case you needed to manage a miscarriage because there was sepsis or anything else. since the dobbs decision, there is a patchwork of chaos where for some states, there have been lawmakers that have proposed the death penalty against women and girls that would terminate a pregnancy in texas, there are threats of up to 99 years incarceration, $100,000 fine if doctors violate the state's very restrictive anti-abortion laws. so we know that there has been litigation. women who fled the state in order to save their lives. even a doctor who's been speaking out publicly about having to leave
4:17 pm
the state in order to save her life. there are states that have passed abortion bans that make no exceptions for rape or incest, and even litigation. now, before the united states supreme court, as to whether federal protections that require hospitals to stabilize any one of us with emergency conditions, whether that applies to individuals that are pregnant and even in emergency situations needing to manage a miscarriage prior to death. >> some striking anecdotes that we have heard. professor, you wrote recently that these abortion bans threaten a range of constitutional freedoms, human rights and civil liberties . can you explain a little bit more? >> well, there are any number of them, including first amendments, the right to be able to associate in texas sb eight law. it provides an opportunity for anyone to seek out and search somebody who has aided or abetted a person in the termination of a pregnancy. so what this might mean is like, imagine that a 11 year old has been raped. she she has not had
4:18 pm
her period yet. she wants to talk with her mother, an aunt about this and what to do. well, technically, that law could conceivably, perhaps, implicate her mother or her aunt. this would violate the ability to be able to freely associate. and, of course, it has violations of one being able to even be able to speak fundamentally with us has been the protection of individuals being able to travel. that was even prior to this constitution that we could travel between different states. there are lawmakers that have now proposed criminal sanctions against people who would leave a state in order to be able to terminate a pregnancy, which is really quite extreme. and there's even the implication of a violation of the eighth amendment, where there can be no cruel or unusual punishment, where this is implicated as the fact that the united states happens to be the deadliest place in all of the industrialized world to actually be pregnant. incredibly high maternal mortality rates, meaning that in some of these states, those are the high the
4:19 pm
states where we get these high maternal mortality rates. so if you have no option other than to carry a pregnancy to term where the risks are so high that you will die, many would say that that is actually cruel and unusual, and that we would not subject people to that. so there are any number of areas of the constitution that are implicated, not just the ones we typically think about, such as the 14th amendment right to privacy or let's say, the right to individual autonomy, which are incredibly important. but other areas of the constitution are implicated, including religion for those who are non-christians. >> yeah, major impacts across the nation. professor, before we go, i just want to show our viewers a graphic from the guttmacher institute that shows more than 171,000 patients traveled to receive an abortion in 2023. that is double what we saw in 2019 before the fall of roe v wade. we have to leave our conversation there, michelle goodwin, professor of constitutional law and global health policy at georgetown university, thanks so much for
4:20 pm
joining us. >> thank you. >> coming up here on the four this afternoon, the number of people dying from alzheimer's disease is on the rise during alzheimer's and brain awareness month. we're talking with an expert this afternoon about some of the newest treatment options available and h to best un
4:21 pm
♪ when you have moderate to severe eczema, it's okay to show off. with dupixent, show off your clearer skin and less itch. because you have plenty of reasons to show off your skin. with dupixent, the #1 prescribed biologic by dermatologists and allergists, you can stay ahead of your eczema. it helps block a key source of inflammation inside the body that can cause eczema to help heal your skin from within. many adults saw 90% clearer skin, some even achieved long-lasting clearer skin and fast itch relief after first dose. serious allergic reactions can occur that can be severe. tell your doctor about new or worsening eye problems such as eye pain or vision changes
4:22 pm
including blurred vision, joint aches and pain, or a parasitic infection. don't change or stop asthma medicines without talking to your doctor. show off to the world. ask your eczema specialist about dupixent. a neurological diseases and the efforts to fight them. this afternoon we're talking about
4:23 pm
one of the leading causes of death here in the united states. every 65 seconds, someone is diagnosed with alzheimer's disease. and unlike heart disease or cancer, which are on the decline, the rates of those dying from alzheimer's is increasing right now. currently, at least 6.7 million people over the age of 65 are living with the disease. and that number is expected to nearly double, reaching 13 million by the year 2050. while there is no cure for alzheimer's disease, there are new resources and research that's being used to slow the progression of the disease. we're going to talk about all of this now. we're joined here in the studio by doctor han lee, neurological and movement disorder specialist with kaiser permanente here in the east bay. doctor, thank you for the time. really, really appreciate it. i want to start by asking you about that, that stat that we just mentioned there off the top, the number of people dying from alzheimer's is on the rise in this country. why do we think that is? >> well, you know, people are living longer. we are. this is
4:24 pm
kind of an unprecedented age where we're able to treat a lot of patients early on in their life. but then as people age and these things start to accumulate in the brain, we're not able to intervene. and so we succumb to these types of diseases like alzheimer's disease. >> all right. that's what it's all about. it's all about intervening. so obviously, as we mentioned and we talk about over and over, there is no cure for alzheimer's. but but there are effective treatment options. what what are the most effective effective options that we have at this moment? >> this is a really optimistic time. there are exponential rate of development of drugs. we focus on some drugs like medications that can increase neural transmitters. these are messengers messengers in the brain. and it can we can increase that. there are drugs now on the market. and there are many that are coming that can potentially clean up the plaque that's in the brain. this is the gunk that's accumulating, destroying the circuits of the brain. and so those are on the
4:25 pm
horizon. and so we use that in combination with therapy, behavioral therapy, safety, physical therapy, all of these things combined can help our patients. >> all right. so do we have a sense of what what what are the most significant risk factors that that can lead one person to be more likely to develop alzheimer's disease than another person? >> yeah, there are some genetic factors and those are concerning as well. but there are environmental land set in 2020 released this kind of a comprehensive guide. and they looked at different risk factors. and that included things like blood pressure, smoking, drinking frequency. these are things you can modify in yourself. and so these things we talked to our patients about and we want to try to prevent the progression or even the onset of alzheimer's disease. yeah. >> and that's what this is all about. so i mean really this this is going to have to be a sort of a proactive approach that people should take. well, to what at what point in their
4:26 pm
lives should people start thinking about brain health and taking that proactive approach to try to diminish the chances of developing alzheimer's? >> yeah, you have to start early and, you know, physicians divide your life into three phases early on education. second, you work on blood pressure, diabetes. you work on later in life trying to prevent depression, loneliness, hearing loss. all of these things are integrated in that prevention pathway. and so these are the things we focus okay. >> what about the loved ones who are around someone and they're worried about the possibility that they may be developing alzheimer's disease? i think we have some of the some of the symptoms that people should be looking out for to put up on the screen here, but can you sort of run us through what this these symptoms are and what people should be looking for? >> yeah, i mean, the most common symptom is memory loss. but it
4:27 pm
could be like high reasoning skills, inability to learn, getting lost. but not all memory issues are alzheimer's disease. i give an analogy like if i asked you to go get bread and milk and you come back with the bread and i say, where's the milk? if you say, oh, i forgot the milk, that's probably normal. that's that happens to me. sure. but if i ask the same question and you say you never asked me about the milk, and if that happens over and over again, that might be a red flag for you to speak to your doctor. >> yeah. if there's that kind of disconnect. that's right. yeah. you know, we talk about all the research that's being done to try to develop a cure where where do you see things going here in the near future? >> i think in the next ten years, there's going to be an explosion of interventions. we are looking at trying to clean up the plaque, the gunk that's in the brain. and so i think the next phase of medications that will be out there for us is going to be those types of medications. the antibodies that go in and try to target the things that are not supposed to be there. that's the next phase.
4:28 pm
>> we're actually reversing the effects of alzheimer's. that's right. yeah, that that's where we want to be. all right. working our way there slowly. but but we appreciate you coming in to talk about these very important issues, doctor han lee, neurological and movement disorder specialist with kaiser permanente. thank you for coming in. we appreciate it. greg we'll send it over to you. >> important work and an important conversation. thank you guys. next on the floor, a powerful voice in comedy taking center stage every day. my brother, the one and only mr. marin. we're live with marlon wayans to talk about his upcoming performances at the san jose improv and the meaningful moments underneath the humor in his latest special, good ief
4:29 pm
4:30 pm
4:31 pm
and i say this from my heart. keep your heart light i just lost my dad five months ago. yeah, but you know what? he was a good dude, you know? don't feel bad. you didn't kill him. liquor did. but you know what? i had a great time with my father, man. please have a great time with your parents, i. >> that is a clip from marlon wayans hilarious and heartfelt new stand up special, good grief, streaming on amazon prime. the comedian and actor takes on the heartache of losing both of his parents and explores how laughter is part of healing and this weekend, wayans will be here in the bay area performing at the san jose improv friday, saturday and sunday. >> all right, we are lucky enough to be joined this afternoon live by marlon wayans. marlon thank you for taking the
4:32 pm
time. we appreciate it. yeah, good to see you. thanks for having me. >> thanks for having me, man. >> oh, you got it. anytime. always. welcome here in the bay. let me ask you about this special here that we just saw the clip. i mean, you said it wrong. >> it's the bay. >> the bay? yeah. that's right, that's right. or the. yeah marlon, this this special. i mean, you watched that clip. this was deeply personal for you. it sort of felt like it was cathartic in many ways. sort of like a therapy session for you. talk about the process of putting this together. how how did you find the joy and the humor in the sorrow? >> because it's the celebration of the life, right? it's not about what you what you're missing. it's what you extracted from the journey that was good. and that's the celebration. and for me, you know, it was like therapy. instead of i flipped therapy, i was like, why am i going to pay a therapist $250 an hour when i to talk my nonsense, when i could talk my nonsense on
4:33 pm
a stage and let these people pay 50 bucks to come see me. that works much better, marlon, because the audience actually has better opinions than therapists. >> i believe that marlon, you start this special by playing voicemails from your mom and dad, which makes me want to call my parents right after we get off set here. can you talk about that kind of connection to the audience that makes us all sort of feel something, and how that community healing is important, i think we've all had a lot of loss in the past couple of years, and that the connective tissue with, you know, listening to the voicemails, because we all get voicemails from our parents and sometimes we don't acknowledge those voicemails and we don't call our parents right back. but when you lost parents, i'm like, no, no, no, no, no. next time you get that call, you save the message. next time. and you, you make sure you go hang out and see your mom and your dad as much as you can, because time is our greatest asset. so make sure you spend it with those that you say you love. yeah yeah. if not, then keep
4:34 pm
their voicemails and playing back later. >> absolutely. great advice marlon. well, we're excited to have you here in the bay area this weekend. you're coming to san jose at the san jose improv. and i know this is, you know, a special place for you to perform. what what is it you appreciate most about the audiences here in the bay area and performing for the crowds here? >> man, that just live real audiences that really are great listeners? and enjoy the laughs because i go all kinds of places. so i can't have a tight audience. i got to have audience that allows me the space to be my crazy self and just know that there's going to be goodness in it. but, you know, i'm sweet and sour. i'm like a i'm like one of the morehead candies, like like it's real sour. and he like me about to spit it out. go actually, this ain't bad. sweet. hold on. yeah. so. and this is a brand new hour. so this is an hour that i've done on the special. this is a completely brand new album. >> marin. we should say you're a busy man. you got a lot of projects going. you recently wrapped up filming of a new
4:35 pm
movie, him, produced by jordan peele. you play a quarterback, so tell us what you can without giving too much away. >> i can't give too much away because jordan peele will have me killed. but i could tell you the production and the bays very own justin tipping, who's a masterful director, he directed this movie, and i think it's going to be huge. and, tyreke withers is my costar and he's great, and julia fox is in it. and it's a psychological horror thriller. and i get to show showcase a different side of me. you haven't gotten to see. yeah. >> all right. looking forward to that. hey marlon i want to ask you about a controversy that we read about recently. we know this is pride month here, and you, you recently faced a backlash over an instagram post honoring your eldest child, kai, who is non-binary. see the post. yeah, just wished everybody a happy pride here and we just put it up on the screen. and you were met with boy, just vitriol, a lot of hateful comments in response. i'm curious to get
4:36 pm
your sense about how surprised you were by that reaction, and why was it so important for you to respond by standing up for not only your child, but but the lgbt community broadly? >> because you see this kind of talk nonsense to me, i just imagine what they would say to my child, and then i imagine what they would say to others. and it's like at some point we've got to grow past that. you are not god. i don't know why people want to judge people like that. and you're not going to bully me because. so when you come at me that way, i'm a troll. i'm just going to keep posting. i have about 150 more pictures that i want to post, so if they keep talking nonsense, i will post one every day. i'll make a pride year and i stand by my child and i stand by those that are looking for their freedoms and looking for their to just express themselves, man. and and i don't judge nobody. i'm not god, you know, and i love everybody. and i'm going to
4:37 pm
promote love, not hate. >> marlon, you said parents of trans kids have to transition, i look good. half naked with that rainbow flag. >> you did you did you look good. you did. >> you sure did, marlon. >> how important is that message that parents of trans kids have to transition with them? >> i mean, it's kind of like the same message in a way that it's your child, right? so it's the way kids, you know, parents need to step up for them. it's things are evolving and changing. and at the end of the day, what never changes is your blood and your dna. and that's your child. and just because they're not like you or doesn't mean that they're not normal. there's a new normal, and everybody should be allowed to live their freedom and live their truth and feel safe. and especially in this country or any country around the world. you should. man, i don't get it. but i think, like i said, social media got a lot of, become a cesspool. it's not even real people. these are bots from different companies,
4:38 pm
countries. these people just sit out there starting arguments and i'm like, you know what? until you say it to my face, whatever ever. >> yeah, it can be ugly, marlon, hey, if you have a little time, we want to see if you'll sort of play along with us here. we have a show here on ktvu. it's called like it or not. and we all just sort of sit around and we debate some of life's, you know, little annoyances, controversies. we want you to weigh in here. and we know you have opinions from time to time, the audience is also going to be a part of this here. so if you want to take part here with us and marlon here, get ready to vote. you can scan the qr code right there on your screen here. here's the first one for you, marlon. all right. taking your shoes off on the plane. do you like it or not , do i have socks on that? >> is it that that is an interesting. that's the wrinkle, right? >> if i like it, if you got socks. if not, get your crusty air and put your shoes on him. >> so he wants to smell that.
4:39 pm
