♪ ♪ digital transformation has failed to take off. because it hasn't removed the endless mundane work we all hate.
9:11 am
♪ ♪ automation can solve that by taking on repetitive tasks for us. unleash your potential. uipath. reboot work. many lawmakers now want to find out what went wrong. abc news reporter faith is in d.c. with the questions being asked this morning. >> reporter: this morning lawmakers livid and questioning what led to this catastrophic security failure during the deadly attack on the u.s. capitol. >> obviously it was a failure, or you would not have had people enter the capitol building by breaking windows and terrorizing
9:12 am
the members of congress. >> reporter: the d.c. mayor and representative tim ryan among the many now calling for a detailed congressional investigation. >> where was the support, where were the backup units that needed to be there from the national guard units from the states around washington, d.c.? and washington, d.c. where were they? >> reporter: abc news has learned three days before the attack the d.c. governments requested additional security from the department of defense, but capitol police declining the extra personnel, ahead of the january 6th trump rally because there was, quote, no indication of significant violent protests, but on social media, many warnings, including this one from president trump saying it would be wild. and sure enough, it was. a pro-trump mob breaching capitol security. desecrating the halls of congress. terrorizing lawmakers inside. but the law enforcement response, hours into the violent insurrection, a sharp contrast
9:13 am
to how they handled this june 1st peaceful protest for racial justice in lafayette square where the peaceful demonstrators were peppered with bullets -- taking selfies with officers in the background. one officer holding the door open as rioters walked away threatening officers on the way out. >> you better lay down your weapons. >> reporter: despite repeated requests for comments from abc news, still no response from capitol police. >> over night the pentagon releasing details about who did what, and the botched response to the brazen attack on the capitol. and as the fallout continues this morning, the capitol police chief and both the sergeant at arms in the house and senate have resigned. in washington, faith abubey, abc news. with us live is north bay congressman jared huffman here to talk about all of this. congressman, thank you for joining us. >> thank you, good morning. >> so, you know, talk to us just first about your initial reaction for the past 24 hours,
9:14 am
the president's ban on twitter and of course the democrats' efforts now to move towards an impeachment. >> these are big historic events and when you reach this kind of historic crucible things can move very quickly. >> what are the democrats planning? could you speak to that in terms of the impeachment? i know you're supportive of it. >> there are several fronts here. obviously there's an attempt to invoke the 25th amendment. that requires someone like mike pence, folks in the cabinet, to actually use their authority under that clause of the constitution, but separately congress is moving forward with a second impeachment of donald trump. there are reasons both immediate and long term for that. and there are other activities under way. we understand the importance of this moment, and we're actually moving with a lot of urgency. >> but what do you say to congressional republicans who are saying that impeachment is only going to further divide the
9:15 am
country? i know we heard that from senator lindsey graham last night as well. >> some of those same republicans were encouraging this violent insurrectionist mob. so let's not give too much credibility to those voices. lindsey graham continues to be a sycophant for this president who incited the insurrection. but i take heart from the growing number of republicans that are distancing themselves from it, that are calling it what it is. that have not stood with this president every step of the way, as he led the country right up to the brink of becoming a ten putt dictatorship. >> you've been very vocal on twitter the past few days talking about what it was like inside the capitol on wednesday. for those who haven't, you know, seen your tweets or heard you describe this yet, could you talk about how things unfolded for you inside the capitol and what did you see from law enforcement, in particular? >> yeah, thank you for covering the security failure side of
9:16 am
this. that's one aspect of this story that we need to continue to follow. but in the moment what was striking about this experience is that it was simultaneously shocking and surreal because nothing like this has ever happened. none of us ever really could have imagined it and at the same time so predictable, such a natural extension of all the things that trump and his allies had been setting in motion. so i don't know if that adequately describes it but then add in the fog of chaos, the crazy din of noise from the crowd coming through all of our offices, the fact that we weren't getting complete information about which buildings were secure and which ones weren't. the lockdown, the gas masks, all of these things that certainly we never thought we would be experiencing. >> so who do you place the blame on for that? >> well, the blame extends from the perpetrators on the ground
9:17 am
that were doing it, to those who incited them and exploited them and set it in motion. that includes obviously president trump. but i think we need to find out whether elements of the capitol police and other police forces were either sympathetic to this crowd and therefore standing down or maybe even actively supporting them. >> so what's next, congressman? i mean, what do you envision happens over the next week? do you see more violence? the inauguration, a week and a half away, are you expecting this sort of event to happen on inauguration day as well? >> the inauguration has to happen. it will happen. and that's one of the aspects of this week that i think we can all feel good about, even though we had this terrible debacle and this dark day in history, we finished the job that night in congress. we certified the electoral college and we're moving forward with the democratic process. the inauguration is obviously the culmination.
9:18 am
we have to see that through but that means we have to very quickly stand up a capitol police leadership that the world can have confidence in. and other police reenforcements to make sure that this is a secure event. it's going to be a small event, maybe the smallest inauguration we've seen in a century or more but it has to go forward and it has to happen safely. >> hopefully safely is the keyword at this point and hopefully there's more enforcement on the inauguration day than we saw on wednesday. but congressman, how do we heal? big picture, you know i've talked to trump supporters in your district, in marin this week who still believe the president won this election. >> yeah, we are in for some, for some, we are in a post factual world, where the real facts don't matter, the only facts that matter are what your tribe tells you, of course led by trump in this case. we just can't coddle that. we cannot kowtow to that.
9:19 am
we are all better than that, our country is better than that. so, look, i am all for healing but i think that healing probably involves working with republicans like mitt romney and adam kinzinger who have put country above party and you hope the rest of them will come along but we're not going to get there by giving in to this mob, or to folks who just don't really care about facts. >> all right, congressman huffman, thank you so much for joining us. >> thank you. >> thank you. all right, interesting conversation there with the congressman. we're going to just get a quick look at the weather now with meteorologist lisa argen. i think we could all do with a little cleansing from politics, so let's talk about the weather. >> how about some sun? vitamin "d" out there, we still have patches of fog in our dense fog advisory posted for the delta, eastern sacramento, western sacramento, and kind of drifting into napa. but otherwise a lot of sun is out there. and we will enjoy a mostly sunny
9:20 am
weekend, with the high clouds in place. live doppler 7 showing you the footprint of the dense fog there to the east of us. and putting the wind barbs here on the satellite and radar composite and you'll see that they're out of the north and this has contributed to the fog being pushed in from the east, the radiational cooling so we have that very dense fog early in the north bay and the east bay, things are improving right now as we look at the visibility. it's been a quarter of a mile at the airport, all morning long as well as napa. elsewhere, though, a big improvement out there, and a look live here, you'll notice how interesting this looks with the fog. just at about 200 feet. coming in from the east, usually we get our westerly wind and that has to do with that high pressure building in as well. it is 45 in san francisco, 48 in oakland, 51 in mountain view, 46 san jose, mid-50s half moon bay and looking at the shark tank, look you sunny it is there with low 40s santa rosa, upper 30s in parts of our north bay valleys, with low 40s by the delta, and

9:22 am
we could see, maybe, a sprinkle up in the north bay, and this takes us into early wednesday. so we are well behind, you know that already, 36% of average, from october in santa rosa, and only barely three inches of rain so far since october, and san jose, bringing the average up to 18%, 26% of average in oakland. we're looking at that chance of rain tuesday, still mild, though, with sunny skies south and east on wednesday, we're in the 60s on thursday. we could hit 70, and this continues into your friday with about 70 in san jose. 71 in cloverdale. 58 today in half moon bay. those onshore winds returning, 61 in san jose. the accuweather seven-day forecast, the fog is lifting, we have high clouds today and tomorrow with a bit warmer on monday, well to the north santa rosa, cloverdale, maybe a sprinkle on tuesday, otherwise it's going to feel like spring

against president trump, with twitter permanently suspending his account. >> these are corporations. currently there really aren't any laws that require them to manage presidential tweets. and it's essentially up to them. >> reporter: it's the highest profile punishment the company has ever imposed. the president aims to get the last word in through his government account, at potus. but the company shut that down too. other companies are making similar decisions, facebook has suspended the president and reddit banned a pro-trump forum for inciting violence and now apple is ordering right wing social media app parlor to wipe out objectionable content within the next 24 hours or be booted from the app store. google play has already suspended the app. >> companies like apple and google will make statements to apps like parlor like that when they believe that the app and the community, the speech in there is becoming violent and

9:32 am
you stuff, those days are over. deidre bolton, abc news, new york. president-elect joe biden is 11 days from taking off, this morning president trump says he will not be attending biden's inauguration. >> one of the few things he and i have ever agreed on. it's a good thing i'm not showing up. i've been saying for now, well over a year, he's not fit to serve. >> trump would be the fourth president to not attend their successor's inauguration, he joins martin a van burr ren, woodrow wilson and richard nixon. facing impeachment efforts for his role in wednesday's riots, experts say that calls for violence have only intensified ahead of inauguration day. now to the covid crisis, there are now more than 368,000 americans who have died from the virus. and more than 3,800 deaths in just the last 24 hours. doctors and emts say patients on

9:44 am
dubs take on raptors tomorrow at 5:30. last night they fajed a furious comeback against the clippers. here's larry beil with the highlights. the warriors were looking to bounce back, they lost to the clippers on wednesday, paying them back in gamo,twe c comepiback in this game at ch. and james wiseman's mom was at the game, the son would make his presence felt. warriors down 20 in the third. the rookie relentless here with authority, nine points and six boards, the clippers seemed to have the game under control. paul george, the drive, and one, goes for 25, clips led by as many as 22, late in the third, the dubs catch fire, steph curry contested three, catch, release, splash, warriors close the gap, down six, curry goes to the bench, eric paschal, three of his 12. the dubs hit twenty-threes in this game and they're up three. kent bazemore's turn now.
9:45 am
and another triple buried, warriors up six, curry loving this 40-6 outburst. the clips held steph to 14 points on wednesday, the reverse, soft touch in the lane, 38 points, 11 assists for chef curry. six-point game, a minute left, andrew wiggins, dubs close it out on a 52-20 run to win it 115-105. man, that was fun. women's college basketball, top ranked stanford missing three players because of covid but fran belibi was rejecting shots left and right. cardinal has been on the road for a month. anna wilson 11 against the 11th ranks ducks from oregon. # playing in santa cruz. haley jones led the way with 18 points, bounce pass right here, jones threading the needle to belibi for the lay-up, stanford 10-0 after a 70-63 victory. nfl news, they announced the all pro team, 49ers linebacker fred warner is regarded as the best linebacker in the league, no surprise he was first team
9:46 am
all pro named by the associated press, led the 49ers in tackles and the good news for fred, he's going to get a nice payday this offseason. in contrast, raiders tight end darren waller had a monster year and somehow, some way did not make first or second team all pro. that second spot was listed as vacant. i guess because all the first team votes went to travis kelce of the chiefs. if waller had gotten one vote, he would have been regarded all pro. certainly deserving, no question. that's a wrap on morning sports, have a great weekend, everybody, i'm larry beil. the warriors have laid off 9% of its staff. including 39 # full-time workers. four others were furloughed. most of them worked in ticket sales and game presentation. this comes ten months after the organization laid off 1,700 part-time event workers. before the week the warriors were one of few nba teams not to let go of full-time employees because of the pandemic. let's get another check of the weather now and the forecast with lisa argen.
9:47 am
it's going to be a pretty nice day seems like. >> it is, liz, that fog is getting more and more isolated locally here around the bay area, it certainly is present to the east of us but north to northeast winds help transport some of that and then the moisture on the ground allowed for the temperature to cool to the dew point. this is the wind flow. there's the moisture, we'll get a few high clouds today but right now the visibility improving all across the bay area, except up in napa. it has been chilly, you've been socked in there, quarter mile visibility. improving a bit at sfo at a half mile. and a live look outside, our sutro tower camera, a bit of haze out there, 44, 45 downtown, 48 in oakland, it is 53 in mountain view. you are in the upper 30s this morning, with mid-50s half moon bay and this is san jose where you can see that it is nice and sunny out there, low 40s santa rosa, 38 in napa with the fog and it is 42 # in concord, livermore checking in at 49 and in san rafael, big improvements here where you are certainly
9:48 am
foggy this morning, the fog lifts within the next few hours where it is lingering, we're sunny this weekend, a few high clouds, looking at near record warmth beginning on wednesday, continuing into friday. our high surf advisory has been extended and upgraded to a high surf warning, current wave heights from sonoma to big sur is looking anywhere from 10 to 13 feet. so we're looking at very big breakers, extremely dangerous conditions here, so really be careful if you're headed out to the coast. as we look at the high clouds today, not a lot going on for your saturday, high pressure builds in by sunday, a cold front wants to pass by to the north. it washes out with a little fanfare and we're back to high pressure building back in for your monday. this is tuesday, a system gets close to flatten that ridge, it gives anywhere from a couple hundredths to maybe .06 up in santa rosa. but by wednesday, even tuesday afternoon, we're still sunny in the south bay and east bay. barely three inches of rain
9:49 am
since october in san jose. that brings you to 18% of normal. we've had about 13 inches of rain up to 36% of normal in santa rosa. it is bad news here for all of us and it looks like, for the forseeable future, after that tuesday system, we are trending dry. wednesday, we are above average with low to mid-60s, average highs in the mid to upper 50s, here the thursday, getting warmer with low 70s in our warmest locations and we'll continue that trend for friday as the dry january continues. 60 in oakland, look for 61 in san jose, 62 in morgan hill, upper 50s with that on shore flow returning in the afternoon. accuweather seven-day forecast, our fog is is lifting, rewind and repeat for your sunday. a little change on monday but we should be slightly milder, tuesday, north bay could see a sprinkle and then wednesday, thursday and friday it feels like spring. liz? >> all right, lisa, thank you. now to a bay area artist known for her portraits celebrating women, as a woman of color, she
9:50 am
believes painting skin color is as complex as an individual. ♪ >> i think just like every person has their own story, every piece has its different layers. when words escape me painting feels like a way that i'm able to tell my story. i grew up in the philippines and even in the philippines having darker skin was dismissed, and when i immigrated from the philippines to here, just to be seen, was probably the biggest thing. my series of kyumumgi i was telling children how proud we needed to be, how i see the color of our skin and how important that is. i want to honor my ancestors,
9:51 am
the people before me, the women before me, in a way that just shows their resilience and their beauty and also their femininity. as a child at 5, in the philippines, there's so many palm trees, i was just draw them, free hand, that was really fun for me to do. so art was always part of me. when i immigrated it meant more. a way for me to connect with what was going on inside of me. it was healing. it was definitely healing. like my safe space that i could express myself. and then now, with my children and my family, it's definitely a more rejoicing part of it. about two years ago quinn, my daughter, was doing a self-portrait. she was frustrated. she was like, mom, i can't make this look like me. and i asked her why, what was the problem, and, you know, she was telling me about the skin color and i said, you know what, we already have all the tools, we have yellow, we have pink, we have brown, all these colors are
9:52 am
in everybody's skin tone, and in how we layered all these colors to achieve her skin tone. the excitement in her face of getting to that was so beautiful. and that was really how my series of kyumungi started. she face times with her cousin gabriel and they would do art together and she came up to me and said mama can you show gabe how to do the skin color like you taught me. next day i called my sister and said can you do art classes with me, not making any money, just offering it for free, for kids. >> here's something i want you to do, it's going to take a little bit of time to let the other side dry. >> we called it color together. self-portrait series. but also talk about their skin tones. >> go ahead and just add a layer of brown on that one side. >> reminded me of my childhood and how art had changed me. all the women that i paint, it's very thoughtful process, that i just really enjoy. it's making my own paints.
9:53 am
it's painting on wood, looking at the wood, when i pick these wood panels i actually look at the grain. there's charcoal in there. i honestly have to let the wood tell me and the paint tell me where i should be going with this piece. my best hope would be for a little girl like i was to see who she is as being represented and just celebrated. somehow be inspired by it, as she moves through life. i want to do this forever. i want to keep being able to express myself, to be able to share that, i think, is really empowering. and you can watch more stories like this on localish.com and all the localish social media pages. next, from park city utah to san francisco, films from this year's sun dance film festival can be seen right here in the bay area, we'll tell you where you can check
