forecast futures. fige perstsntohe friday. and then warming up again for fourth of july weekend. overnight, we'll see virtually no marine layer at all. hardly a patch or two of fog will be seep going into the early morning hours. overnight, we have mainly clear skies, look for low temperatures generally in the mid 50s. a little cooler at the coast, and tomorrow's high also range from low 60s to upper 70s around the bay shoreline to low 90s inland. friday, going into fourth of july weekend, it will still be relatively cool for july on friday after that midweek cooldown i talked about. but it starts to warm up on saturday to typical levels for early summer. on sunday, hold on to that range of mild to warm weather. on monday, it remains that way, too. here's the seven-day forecast.

a cooldown wednesday, thursday and friday, although it's going to be nice and comfortable. and just a slice warmup going into fourth of july weekend, no intense heat expected. low 90s inland. and low 60s on the coast. probably could not ask for a more comfortable weather going into the fourth of july weekend. and for wherever there may be fireworks, can't be sure yet about the marine layer. we'll wait until thursday or friday to give you a better idea what to expect in that category. dan and liz? >> thank you, spencer. hopefully it's not too windy. we all look alike, sound alike. we're all good. parts is parts. up next, redit gets rid of

city services. and the city will spend more than $7 million for city mayor proposing a similar cut to the police force. he's asking for a $9.2 million reduction or roughly 12% of its annual spending plan. money will be spent on homeless services and building a wholistic resource center for african-americans. >> the more we can invest in things like expanded crisis response, the more that we can make sure people get the care that they need and our police are focused on the kind o wk they need to do, which is responding to serious and violent crimes. >> the mayor says berkeley is facing a $39 million shortfall because of covid-19. let's get some inside on efforts to cut police funding.

san francisco chronicle insider and "abc7 news" contributor phil matire joins us now. let's talk about the definition, because people throw the word around, defunding the police and it means different things to different people. >> absolutely. it depends on who you're talking to. if you talk to some of the more vocal activists, they're saying defund and disband the police departments and send out teams of social workers, and nonviolent sort of confrontational manners of dealing with people. if you're talking about defunding in terms of redirecting funds, that's what they're looking at, at berkeley and oakland. that's down the line. but you're also taking about defunding, taking money from the department and putting it into other programs like you said. like the homeless services or wi-fi or things that could enhance the communi buthasng in a lot of nd we have to be honest, is there's the

rhetoric and the reality. the last number we showed is the teller. the multimillion dollar deficit being faced by berkeley, upwards of $40 million. so yes, they are cutting the police department's budget and redirecting funds, but they're doing that with all the city departments because the covid-19 has knocked the pins out of the tax money coming in. and while the berkeley police department is looking at 12% cut, other departments are looking at 15% cut. >> budget rsz s are going to bet everywhere because of covid-19. what are some other options police departments are looking at? >> that's a good one. what i have seen so far is what they're talking about is possibly teaming up police with more mental health people and sending out teams in tough suchuations, so you have somebody that could handle somebody high on drugs or out of

it a bit. and also respond to calls like, for example, get the police no longer responding to calls about homelessness, drug use and things like that. instead freeing them up for other exercises. but it's interesting to note that in oakland, when the vote came up to defund or redirect funds for the police department, they did not go with the $25 million being given to activists, but went for a more limited role and said we're going to hold back on a new class right now and keep the cadets and keep things rolling as we try to reimagine this. it was interesting to note that the three votes in favor of the less defunding were the three african-american votes on the council, who said look, we still need police in our neighborhoods. so whether it's defund, redirect or deflect, right now, we're just putting the first payments down on what may be a new police department, but it has to come after we get more money and more ideas how to do it.

>> all right. let's move on to another big topic that everybody across the state, in fact, across the country is dealing with. the reopening of california here. what's the latest you're hearing about reopening efforts in san francisco, because obviously we're going backwards, we're going forwards, then backwards again. who knows where this goes long-term? >> it's like walking on a tight rope and you're getting very windy up there. the rope is starting to wobble. do you go forward, stay in place or go backwards? san francisco and other cities are saying let's just stay where we are. tap the brakes. we're not going to continue pac we're not ready to go back. i talked to people at city hall, they said we're concerned because there was that recent spike of cases. and in addition to that recent sike in cases, san francisco hospitals are now taking patients from san quinten and from imperial county that have the covid virus and need to be treated, and that's taking up intensive care beds. so they're worried about a

surge. they say trying to step back is tricky on a tight rope and not sure the public is ready behind that. what we're seeing now is hold the brakes and see what happens. and they think it's going to take a week or two to find out what the implications are. >> wow. challenging times, whether you work in the hospitals or have to make decisions regarding budgets and the virus does not discriminate. we have seen that. it's affecting everybody. phillip, thanks for your time. read phil's column in the san francisco chronicle every sunday and wednesday. starting wednesday, you'llr gate bridge or to ride buss and ferries operated by golden gate transit. this is a live picture of the golden gate bridge toll plaza. no traffic. that is one perk, right? fast track users will pay $7.70 to cross the span. drives without fast track will see an increase to $8.40.

"the four and 4:00" as dan and spencer join us. a missouri couple were pointing loaded guns at a group of black lives matter protesters. their real namesre a patricia mccloseky. you saw this on twitter over the weekend. they stood outside their home while about 500 people marched along a private street toward

the home of st. louis' mayor on saturday. both of them are attorneys. they run their firm from a home office, and mark mccloseky once represented a man who claims he was the victim of police brutality. this was a wild scene. i was stunned when i saw it initially. dan, i don't know about you, but if i was mark, i would be more concerned about patricia than the protesters, because i'm not sure she's ever held a gun in her life. i would be taking steps away from her. but dan, give me your thoughts. >> no question. okccasionally it looked like he pointed the gun at her. fortunately, no one got hurt. i did do research into missouri's gun laws. and much like what we have here in california, it can be a charge of aggravated assault or brandishing or pointing a weapon in a threatening manner. they're attorneys, they ought to know better. you can't just wave a gun around

if you're not under attack. so they could face charges up to a year in jail, although that's unlikely to happen. but they could face fines. >> well, they're attorneys. so they have somebody to represent them. you know what they say about attorneys who represent themselves. spencer, what's your take on that video there? >> well, i think carrying an assault weapon is a bit extreme. i read or heard somewhere in the saying tymatter movement.a stat so i don't know what kind of threat they felt, but of course, i wasn't there. i just think it doesn't look nice. >> i thought she was carrying a cocktail at first, like a martini. then i was like, that's a gun. she was just waving it around. all right. the n push by me democrats to rename the john

wayne airport in orange county. this comes after a 1971 playboy interview where wayne said he supported white supremacy and made statements against the lbgtq community. they are asking the county to restore its original name, orange county airport. i wasn't aware of all that history behind john wayne. that does change a lot of things. larry, what do you think? >> yeah, i was stunned when i saw this, and then i was disappointed, because if you're a fan of john wayne's movies, ie a legitimate american hero. what we're learning now is a lot of people that we once put on a pedestal may have expressed some views that are down right concerning in 2020. and so if they want to change the name back -- you know, i never really embraced it being

called john wayne airport because i didn't know where it was originally. so i'm fine going back to orange county. i don't want to feel like we have to cancel everybody that said stupid at one point or another, because there wouldn't be many people left, but these are sensitive times and we have to at least consider some of these options. >> i'm a big john wayne fan as a movie star but not these comments. i was aware of some of his past in that respect. like you, in this day and age, if we're going to put somebody up on a pedestal and put their name on something, they ought to represent our values. but you have to be careful, you can't take everything down because of one comment. but he made several apparently. >> right. >> moving on, country singer chase rice faces critipostvideo tennessee. rice's fans sang along to his music, but many were not wearing masks. we see this over and over again. the venue has told abc news it's

re-evaluating its current concert series and is putting more safety measures into place. spencer, do we have to just stop all concerts at this point? in california, you couldn't put one on. it's mind boggling that we just do not learn from previous mistakes. >> no, we don't. i don't know what people are thinking or even if they're thinking. you see story after story like this of these large gatherings indoors where no one or virtually no one is wearing a mask. it just blows my mind. >> in that individual joe, i don't think >> in that video, i don't think i saw a single mask. it may look fun, but we're going to regret it.ablute. i feel like haha masks became a political statement? it shouldn't have been. health officials across the
