friday. we lad two separate sets of filings in new york and also from robert mueller the special council and russia investigation. it is a campaign finance violation. it is something the president has denied chltd cohen detailed contact with a russian official regarding a contract to build a hotel in moscow. it is also something the president deflied at the time. it is evidently an ongoing process. some are predicting here that the president could eventually face prosecution for some of the things mentioned in these filings. some of them are talking impeachment. the feeling here, it is too soon to really speak or consider

impeachment. they want to make sure it is democrats and republicans that if anything here, if the president is liable for any of these infractions they want clear substantial evidence of legal violations. they also seem to want to wait for mueller's report to take any further action. >> yes. this is ongoing. we will continue to watch that. thank you. breaking news to tell you about on the peninsula this morning. this is video of a large fire response in redwood city. it is unfolding near el camino. our photographer has been there for the past 30 minutes there. he is telling us that the tire shop caught fire and thatere's lot of smoke in the area. we are staying on top of this story. we'll bring you more information as soon as we get it. an emotional 49ers win.

sierra. we are seeing a quick-moving and weak system moving through. it is bringing us rain this morning. as we go throughout the rest of the day going to see these showers fizzling out. we will have a chance of showers moving through san francisco and peninsula and parts of the east bay before it winds down. going into this afternoon we are going to start to see the skies clearing. this is right around sunset. we may still see the clouds lingering for much of the bay area today and tomorrow we'll get more sunshine and drier conditions as our temperatures come up a few more degrees. i'll be tracking that. also, what's ahead for the rest of the week. we are looking at more dry weather in the forecast heading towards friday as well before the next system arrives. more on that in a few minutes. we have a new crash on the bay bridge? >> yeah. i just tuned in the camera over there. trying to get this. the slow down and flashing

lights. this is just as you're heading up the incline towards treasure island. folks are distracted by the flashing lights. it is a tow truck to remove the vehicle. no details as far as how long it will take. we do see that backup forming and they will likely slow down the metering lights if they haven't done so already. now, no major injuries reported. fingers crossed. we'll get that clear. back-up all right started. >> the north bay holding steady. a number of crashes but none of them creating a big problem. the trivalley still holds

concerns over trade and the growing political unease are your big causes there. shares in tesla are there. musk said this. >> i want to be clear. i do not represent them. >> but you're abiding by your settlement aren't you? >> because i respect the justice system. >> he was asked to step done after he falsely claimed he had funding to take the company private. he is no longer ceo but he still has the largest shareholder. he was also ordered to show his tweets the tesla before he sends them if they might effect the market. >> president trump tweeted his support of the so called yellow vest demonstrations. people are angry about new taxes

on gasoline. trump tweeted people do not want to pay large sums of money in order to maybe product the environment. he didn't seem to understand the tax issue there. people are not paying more to third world countries. they are paying more to their own government. french taxes don't go to the middle east. they go to the french government. it is very similar to a tweet the president sends last week. he bragged the u.s. government was collecting millions of dollars. when a foreign good comes into the country americans pay the tariff. the billions of dollars he is talking about here were coming from america. as i mentioned off the top wall street unsettled had a whole host of things that happened. all of which could very much effect the president's future. we'll talk more about that when we talk politics coming up in
