says this is a surveillance that shows a thief stealing his tools, and it was a community service officer who came out to scene, and as a service contractor, his tools are critical to his livelihood. >> when somebody take it, it is important to me, and i will do whatever i can do. >> so then he realized he could use his air tag tracking device to find he jumped going down the hill while enforcement what he is doing. this dash cam is showing his own truck passing hem, and so robert made a u-turn, and he followed the driver. >> i am chasing my truck right now and head toward san martin. >> robert continues to follow his truck to gilroy. >> it is taking me to a place

ii. the first lady met with the refugees with the first lady of slovakia. and the refugees are averaging less than 2,000 people per day, and she met with first responders, and we learned that biden took an unannounced trip into ukraine to meet with war refugees and she felt it was important to show support to the country. today, stanford is showing sup rt not for the ukrainian people held by the ukrainian student body, and they are giving bay area residents and companies to have opportunities to help the refugees. it is running from 12:00 to 4:00 at the bechtel student center. and today, we will go to washington, d.c. with our weekly interview with chuck todd who

has this week's "meet with the press."

when big tobacco's products were found out to be killers, they promised smokers safety. they called it a filter. but this filter wasn't safe or useful, just small and made of microplastics that have endangered us all. for far too long, they have polluted the earth. they're literally everywhere. there's no need to search. big tobacco, you'll have to answer for your despicable ride, for your wake of destruction. your one little big lie.

welcome back. it is time now for the weekly discussion with chuck todd, nbc news political director and moderator of "meet the press." hi, chuck. good morning. good to see you. we actually aired "meet the press" an hour before the newscast as opposed to after the newscast today, and so i got to catch a little bit of it on the issue of abortion after that leaked draft of the supreme court poised to overturn the supreme court case addressing abortion. and how rare is this leak, and what is going on. >> well, it is unprecedented to have a leak of the draft of the

supreme court. they have had their share of leaks, but this is in response to a leak that took place five days earlier that "the wall street journal" who looked like they had informed speculation that chief justice was writing an opinion that roe would be intact, but lowering the viability to 15 weeks, and the indication was that brett kavanaugh or amy coney barrett was in play here, because of the precedent nature that -- look, if they overturn roe which had been upheld twice, and no such thing as an official thing in legal community here called the superprecedent, but if there were, this is one of them, so this is an unusual thing by the court to essentially take away rights that it once granted. it is certainly overruled itself in the past, but usually in favor of getting rid of restrictions on rights that had been taken away. in that sense, it is unusual,

and what is interesting is that the clerks were kind of split on what is going to happen, and our conservative clerk believed that what we have seen leaked is likely going to be what the ruling is, and the liberal clerk seemed to believe that a couple of things were possible, and don't rule tout chief justice to finding a way to convince somebody to his side, and he also speculated it is possible to order a retry of the case because of the unusual nature of what happened to it and all of the leaks. >> and speaking of the retry of the case, you have the governor of mississippi on this morning for those who don't know, it was back in december that the supreme court heard the arguments of the mississippi case which is in direct arguments of "roe versus wade" that we are today, and i know that you can't sum it up, but what is the overarching message to this leak? >> well, he is -- look, they are

planning for a world without roe, and they have a trigger law that would essentially ban most abortions including those that are committed via incest. they don't have an exception for incest. he seemed to indicate it is under discussion, but the news from the governor is that he would not specifically rulely out a rule that banned conception. so he did not rule out that it would not sign a bill that came to his desk, because he believes that life becomes at conception. >> thank you, chuck. if you missed it, you can watch it on nbc.com, and stream it on the nbc app or watch it on roku, hulu live and apple and peacock. coming up in 30 minutes from

now, we will talk to bay area expert larry thurston, and how the move could potentially impact other rights. and now, a march for women's right that started in powell and market street, and many brought sign and banners and declaring that the right to a legal abortion is an essential human right. the party for socialism and liberation organized the march. we will turn now, and let you know that if you are doing something this mother's day, there are plenty in the bay area, and here is mike inouye. >> thank you, kira, and the rest of the mom out there, and others, if you have forgotten to buy some flowers, the san francisco rose society is back with the rose show at the holland flowers and go to sfo

rose society.org and if you are allergic to flowers, go to the bay area where they are continuing the bay area book festival that celebrates the written word, and the celebration of those writing the words and a bay area book festival.org. and also n the next tleet weeks, you will have open artists, and this week, it is coastside, and then the peninsula, and the next week in may is the south bay, so go to sfo.org/bay to find out more. >> thank you, mike. and now, there is a celebration for those who tied the knot in the bay. they are both 90 years old and they met in jefferson high school in the 40s and started to date, and broke up when carolyn moved. they went on to marry other people for more than 60 years,

and had families of their own, but after their spouses passed away, they reconnect and found a spark. the happy couple got married in nevada with a crowd cheering them on. >> we had lunch with each other, and found out that we cared and loved each other after that length of time, and at our age, it is great to know that you love and care for each other after that length of time. >> the original wedding date was more than two years ago. we wish you all of our love and the very best to you, caroline and jim. >> that is great. >> i wish we had more to talk about that, but we have to check in with vianey about the forecast. >> yes, there is a system lurking by, and that going to bring some shower activity and wind and cooler temperature. so let's get right to it, and right now in downtown san jose, you can see the sunrise coming out, and mix of sun and clouds and the current temperatures as

you head out the door in the 40s and the 50s and we are running a few degrees cooler in areas like santa rosa, and 70 degrees cooler, and santa rosa cooler, and san jose is five degrees cooler, and talk about that system, because it is expected to bring some showers north of the golden gate bridge, and you can see it here, and this is going to kick up the wind, and yes, we are talking about the sierra snow, and look at the timing here, and looking at the hour by hour outlook, at 10:30, and san francisco and oakland and parts of hayward, and it is scattered. looking at 11:00, some of the scattered showers around and into freemont, and fast forward to 12:00, and we could see some shower activity and further south to los goydos and that area where you will notice some of the cloud cover, and if you are north of the golden gate

bridge up to santa rosa, notice it lingers. the biggest thing that you will notice is the wind. if you are looking at the rain fall totals, it will be north near ukiah, but if you are south, it will be less of that rain. hourly temperatures in the 50s to start, and then looking at 1:00, the upper 50s and eventually topping out at the mid-60s by dinner time, and running cooler this afternoon compared to what we have ahead. the biggest thing that i mentioned is the wind, and here the reason why. 10:00 a.m., and santa rosa, and san francisco, 20 miles per hour, and lunch hour, if you have any tents going up in the yard, make sure they are secured, because in livermore, it is 30-plus miles per hour winds and it is going to stick around. and there is a winter weather advisory in the sierra, and we are talking about the peaks up

good morning, it is 7:41. happy mother's day and we are expecting a couple of changes ahead, and definitely some wind. so right to the forecast, and live look at sfo and depending where you live, or where you are headed to this afternoon you might even get some showers. live look in downtown san jose, and here is a system that we are monitoring just to our north, and this is expected to kick up the winds, and also bring the

sierra snow, and even a chance of showers. guiding you to the hour by hour outlook, and looking at 11:00, we do have a little bit of the shower activity up here in san francisco, and oakland and the hayward area, and it is not widespread heavy downpours, but scattered around 11:30, and notice that in palo alto, and moving into freemont and livermore area, around 12:30, and expect cooler temperatures and the wind. that is the most noticeable aspect of the forecast for today, and along with the cooler temperatures, because if you are looking at the rainfall totals, and a couple of hundredths of an inch, most of it is focused up to ukiah, but again, we could have some shower activity, an increase in the thunderstorm isolated thundershowers. and now, we will stay in the 50s around 1:30, and still in the upper 50s, and only topping out in low 60s for some areas, and this is going to continue into

the monday, and so we stay cool, but look at the wind at about 10:00, and san francisco is 22-plus, and it is going to be gusty at around 2:00, and look agent san francisco, and the city of san jose even through concord and livermore and stays gusty, and backing off a little bit, but if you plan to go to the sierra, check the travel condition, because there is a winter travel advisory in place because of several inches of snow in the higher peaks especially heading into tuesday. so here is the overview of what to expect for mother's day in case you missed the first half. mix of spotty showers, and on and off gusty winds of 20 to 40. and we have chilly temperatures of 40s and 50s. and we could have some mountain showers, and isolated shower chances.

by wednesday, the showers back off, and we will keep the wind, but we will top off in the upper 60s by the end of of the week. back to you. >> a little bit of everything. it is 7:43, and we have more coming up on today in the day. we will talk about the leaks of the draft of the supreme court that may overturn roe v. wade and if it happens, what could happen next. we will be right back.

under district attorney gascón, i prosecuted car break-ins. all repeat offenders, often in organized crime rings. but when chesa boudin took office, he dissolved the unit and stopped me from collaborating with the police on my cases. now home and car break-ins are on the rise because repeat offenders know they can get away with it. chesa boudin

is failing to do his job. there's a better way to keep san francisco safe. recall chesa boudin now. new this morning, a baby fox is now safe after being rescued from a construction site near oracle park in san francisco. the firefighters got the call that the fox was trapped in a hole in a steel pipe. they used power saws and cooling water under the supervision of animal control to rescue the baby fox and free it from the pipe. the fox is now being evaluated by animal control. the deadly crashes are on the rise in san jose, and city

leaders are taking action, and city council and member raoul perez is saying that more than half of the victims of traffic accidents were pedestrians and they are on pace to break the high of 50 traffic deaths in one year. yesterday, he held a town hall on the accidents, and he said that the number one cause is that too many drivers are speeding, so the city's plan is to target the areas where the collisions are happening and narrowing the lanes, and putting up more warning signs and hiring more patrol officers. this week, the draft opinion that was leaked suggesting that the justices are going to overturn roe v. wade set off a political firestorm. both sides of the debate are closely watching to see what will happen next, and that includes a vote in the u.s.

senate. we bring in larry gurston, and good morning, larry. good to see you. start with the senate vote, if we can, and what do you see happening? >> well, good morning to you, kira, and happy mother's day, and my wife and all of the mothers who have worked so hard to give our kids so much, and kudos to all of them. as far as the senate goes, it is a vote to allow a vote. that the idea. you need 60 votes in the senate, and chuck schumer, the majority leader says that we need to put everybody on notice, and we need 60 votes to get the vote on the a abortion issue out there, and the republicans are against it, and some democrats are against it, and it won't happen, but schumer believes that he is putting the people on notice, and letting the others know how the senators feel, and that the idea behind the vote. >> if roe v. wade the so-called middle ground for 49 years, and why now? >> that is a good question. you have the two competing

values out there for years, and decades, really, and the right of the unborn as people call it, and the right of women to choose, and what to do with their own bodies, and the idea of roe v. wade is to find the middle ground, but we know that the ground has shifted with the three new justices on the supreme nd all of whom said it is settled law, and all who have said according to the draft, they said, no, it is time to change, and it does not belong in the constitution, and so it is a pivotal time for both sides. >> many pro choice advocates say that if row is overturned, it is going to close access to care, and then open the door to stopping personal rights, and do those claims hold merit? >> i wish we knew. justice alito who drafted the

majority opinion said this is about roe only. but if you are looking at it, it is connecting very closely to same-sex marriage, and contraception pill, and will these things, too, be found unconstitutional, and you can't say it relates only to roe, because once you open the door, it is other things can be opened as well, and that is what the pro choice feels, and we don't know whether it is going to roll that way, but we believe it could be possible. >> and chuck todd said that he felt that there were two former clerks that one believes there is going to be changes to the memo, and one believes it is going to go ahead as written, so what is the likelihood that this going to proceed, or at least one justice in the conservative majority who appears poised to overturn roe would change their mind? >> well, that a another good question. we know that normally, the justices do not change their

mind, and highly unlikely. we have seen justice roberts change his mind at the last minutes to allow obama care to go through, and justice kennedy in the case also about abortion that in the last minute, justice o'connor convinced him to change his mind. and so is that possible? yes, it is possible, and does it happen? it could happen. and kira, we are on strange ground here, because there is so much at tumult here, and a lot at stakes for both sides, and this is a big case to watch. >> and surely not the last time that we will talk about this. larry, thank you for your insights here, and thank you for the mother's day wishes. it 17:51 and up next, a quick look at the top stories that we are following. as families are celebrating mother's day, the covid cases are increasing, and what you
