this is the roosevelt community center in san jose on east santa clara street. for those who need it, it is a cooling center, as we experience another day of hot temperatures across the bay area. thank you so much for starting your sunday morning with us. i'm kira klapper. cinthia pimentel joins us with a peek at our microclimate forecast. and you say slightly cooler than yesterday. >> yeah. ever so, the slightest bit. it's still going to be a scorcher out there. let's remind at what we saw yesterday. a lot of triple digits from our data out at the airport from livermore, concord, santa rosa, all seeing the triple digit temperatures. another day of some warm temps around the bay area. i'll show you that in the full forecast. but parts of san jose and hayward, not quite to the triple digits. but it was a hot day out there. we are seeing the sunshinegreet us around the bay area. a beautiful shot of the sun rise
7:02 am
here, with temperatures at 60 degrees. a lot of upper 60s. concord at 66, as well as in fremont. 69 in san jose. and already 75 degrees here. so we'll warm up as the morning goes on. we remain under this heat advisory through the bay area. central valley, sacramento valley seeing the extreme heat temperatures into the excessive heat warning. we'll walk you through the forecast and talk about when we will see some relief. kira, back to you. >> cinthia, thanks. we begin with breaking news right now out of baltimore, where two people are dead and 28 others injured a of a mass shooting at a holiday block party. we just learned an 18-year-old woman and a 20-year-old man were killed. at least three other victims are in critical condition. breanna ross from our nbc affiliate in baltimore is at the scene. >> reporter: right now, we know an 18-year-old woman and 20-year-old man are dead this
7:03 am
morning because of this shooting. we know 28 more people are hurt because of this. those victims range in age -- we are expected to learn more about the victims as the morning goes on. but this all unfolded during a block party here in the brooklyn neighborhood in south baltimore. a neighbor said he heard what sounded like fireworks, later learning those were gunshots. what was supposed to be a fun time for neighbors turned into terror. it's still quite an active scene here. we are on 6th street and audrey avenue. this is a block over from where the shooting happened. police are now trying to comb through evidence and figure out what happened here and why. police responded to the 800 block of gretna court at 1:30 this morning, finding the 18-year-old woman dead at the scene. a 20-year-old man later died at

7:05 am
this situation throughout the morning. this is a developing situation, so we'll bring you updates as soon as we get them on air and online. back here in the bay area, and back to the other top story, above-normal temperatures hitting the bay area. a heat advisory remains in effect today after temperatures pushed past 100 in several local cities yesterday. but that scorching heat did not keep thousands of people from going to the alameda county fair. many brought their hats, sun screen, their water bottles. some their open fans. >> mine sprays water, as well. so it has like a myself that comes out, too. she's got her fan. >> it's warmer than i thought it would be, but, again, we came prepared. so we're okay. >> as cinthia said, today will not be quite z scorching as yesterday, but still a hot day for the hair and other events.
7:06 am
there are refilling water stations as well as umbrellas for shade. a few buildings also are air conditioned. and with this increased heat can come an increase in bugs inside your home. some bay area pest control companies have seen an increase in calls over the past few days. alyssa gourd has more on what you can do to keep your home pest free. >> reporter: as temperatures go up in the east bay, eco guard pest management says demand for their services has been going up, too. >> what we are seeing record calls for, unprecedented calls are ants, cockroaches, speeders, ear wigs. >> reporter: they're hearing about a growing number of bugs from people in and around the homes. >> our roach calls are up several hundred percent.
7:07 am
>> reporter: residents say they're seeing the same thing. why is this happening? >> if you feel like you're baking to death outside, just about everything else living might be, too. and maybe they want to come in and be comfortable just like you. >> reporter: the storms this winter, plus warm spring incubated bug eggs, which are now hatching in large numbers, and seeking refuge in our homes. if they are not welcome in your house, he says -- >> it's always a great time to tidy up. >> reporter: clean inside and outside your home. eliminating any moisture, and eliminate places where bugs can hide. and remember that coaches in particular, they love trash. if you've got trash or any type of litter on your property, it's important to take that, make sure it's contained in a bag, tie it up nice and tightly so
7:08 am
the bugs can't get in. >> even spilled bird speed could attract bugs. with more days of summer ahead, check if you have gaps around your windows or doors that can allow insects and heat into your home. alyssa gourd, "today in the bay." and from pests to pets. a volunteer group spent yesterday focused on helping up housed people take care of their pets in this heat. the unhoused response group visited homeless camps in san jose, and they primarily took cats and neutered them and returned them. >> i can't afford to have it neutered, so for them to provide this, it's great. a lot of us don't have vehicles or means of transportation or money to take the bus or light rail or anything. >> the group passioned out water and pop sickles to people in
7:09 am

now to a strike underway at more than 150 starbucks across the u.s., now has a new member. a bay area starbucks. employees at the main pastime plaza location walked off the job yesterday. they say they voted to unionize back in april, but say they do not have a contract because starbucks refuses to negotiate with them. starbucks has recently become embroiled in controversy surrounding pride month decorations at their stores. one employee says the company's track record of being lbgtq plus friendly was a big part of why she wanted to work for them, but their responses to recent issues have left her disappointed. >> i think it's because in places where it's more conservative, it can be seen as offensive. but i think that if you are going to be a safe place for queer partners, you should make sure that no matter what people
7:11 am
think, that it's a safe place for them, yeah. >> starbucks has filed charges with the national labor relations board, saying the union's claims about pride deck -- decorations not being welcomed are false. we have much more ahead. coming up, twitter bringing in a major change that significantly caps your screen time unless you're a paying member. some experts say it's a sign the company is struggling with money.

7:16 am
a tweeted limit to crack down and prevent ai companies. he announced 600 tweets a day. 6,000 for people who pay for twitter blue. throughout the day, he raised the limit to 800, then 8,000, then to 1,000 tweets for unverified users. it's ten times that amount for twitter's paid subscribers. an ai professor sees the move as a way to boost the company's sagging revenue. >> they cut the workforce back, cutting costs left, right, and center. they need to find revenue sources from anywhere and everywhere that they can have. >> reporter: musk laid off nearly 75% of staff when he took off. he claimed it was necessary to prevent the company from falling into bankruptcy. after paying $44 billion to acquire the company.
7:17 am
>> i can't believe what twitter has done. >> reporter: he said he reached his max use. are you going to pay? >> no. i'm not. it's unbelievable. >> reporter: he believes some twitter users will turn to other free platforms. which won't sit well with advertisers, who may decide to leave twitter. >> i'm in the market for a substitute service, and moving away from twitter. >> reporter: this san jose resident says he already limits his use of twitter for the sake of his mental health. he hopes that musk's decision to cap how much time he spends on twitter benefits others, too. >> i do feel like having some checks and balances when it comes to social media is a healthy thing. i think it might be a net positive for twitter.
7:18 am
i don't know if it's going to be a working business model, but maybe. if you have been in the heat the last few days, today should show some relief. and we have some ideas what to do today. >> good morning, kira. as we close out pride month, today for the queer kick ball tournament. all will be battling for the gold medals that await the winners. special projects like this one right here. next, from oakland to san francisco, from kick ball to frisbee golf, the folks here are putting on their first event. that' in san francisco.

7:35 am
>> reporter: attorneys say the names of the priests should be sealed, but victim advocates say the identities need to be public to encourage potential victims to come forward, and some of the priests may pose a present day danger. >> it started when i was 9 and 10. >> reporter: in 2021, john doe was the first to file a lawsuit and publicly accuse john mccracken of sexually abusing him. before mccracken's death in 2012, he was one of the east bay's longest serving priests. >> he would have me come into misoffice and tell me i had been a good boy, and that turned into taking my clothes off, and that turned into him having his way with me in every day he wanted to. >> reporter: we're not revealing his real name, because he's an alleged victim. since you have come forward, at
7:36 am
least three additional accusers have come forward and filed lawsuits. >> i'm very moved and encouraged by it, because i really felt like i was alone on an island. >> reporter: the civil cases remain pending. despite being accused by multiple people, his name does not appear on the oakland diocese own list of accucused clergygy, which includess 6565 . mccccracken is one of 60 newly accused clergy whose names don't appear on that list. the oakland diocese declared bankruptcy in the wake of 350 lawsuits. last week in court, attorneys for the diocese requested to seal the names of accused priests, arguing that at least some of them should remain confidential during the legal process to avoid scandal and harassment. but plaintiff attorneys responded saying that publicly naming alleged perpetrators
7:37 am
helps potential victims come forward. >> there are so many people that don't even -- haven't come to terms with their abuse. >> reporter: sandra is john doe's attorney with this message -- >> practice what you preach. do the right thing. do the right thing for these victims. >> reporter: on a legal call with creditors last week, the diocese revealed two other accused priests are still working at east bay parishes. one of them is father george, currently a priest here in arinda. in this 2022 legal complaint, he is accused of sexually abusing a teenage altar boy in the '70s saying --
7:38 am
>> reporter: oakland bishop michael barber said he directed a former federal prosecutor to conduct an investigation, which found the allegations against mockel not credible and he supports his priests. as the case slowly moves forward, alleged victims say so does their healing process. >> it's been up and down, just like my whole life has been after suffering from traumatic abuse. >> reporter: the judge in the bankruptcy case asked attorneys to specify which names of the accused priests they want sealed and why. attorneys for the diocese are expected to submit their response next month. candas wen, nbc bay area news. >> if you have a story for our investigative unit, call this
7:39 am

take a picture of a menu that is in another language and it will translate it so you can know what you are ordering. last week, the u.s. supreme court produced several decisions likely to add to the growing controversy around the jurists. among the cases, the court ended affirmative action and struck down a state law that forbids discrimination against lbgtq. nbc bay area political analyst larry gerston joins us. good morning. great to see you. >> good morning. >> one could argue that these changes to historic decisions could date back to former president donald trump appointing these three conservative judges tipping the scales, right? >> yeah. do the math here, and it's simple. the president was able to get in -- former president was able to get in three justices.
7:50 am
there are nine all together. five is what you need for a majority. so imagine the impact that the president had in those four years, really changing the arc of the way the court operates. so yes this has to do with what happened with president trump. >> both the affirmative action case and the lbgtq plus case focused on minorities that have suffered past and current discrimination. why would someone want to end those protections? >> this is kind of complicated, but let's see if we can get through the weeds here. yes, these folks have been given special protection in the past. what the court is saying they're not the only ones that should get special protection. everybody deserves special protection. we need to even the pla field and make sure that some rights forome people don't exceed the rights of others. in the process, they are saying
7:51 am
everyone ought to be protected the same way. everyone ought to have the same speech opportunities as with the colorado case. so you are on your own. you go in there, ask for something. if they say no, that's that. you have the right to ask, they have the right to say no. >> you are referring to the colorado web designer who did not want to make a wedding website for a same-sex couple. in your introduction, conservatives are hailing these decisions. liberals are not. so how is the general public receiving these? >> well, we don't know yet what the public is going to say about these two cases. but remember, these two are followups about lots of other cases, especially the dobbs case that we talked about. people are pretty upset, many people, most people with the way the court ising the last couple of years. i would imagine this year will
7:52 am
continue. a poll just released a few days ago. youee the approval and disapproval relationshipshere. 29% awayf the court is acting. 58% say no, they disappro that's 2-1. and the same poll, 68% said that the court is motivated by politics, compared with 25% who believe the court is motivated by law. so the bottom line here is that jurists are supposed to examine court cases the way the constitution offers them that opportunity. what you have here is a court viewing the constitution differently today, these past couple of years, than perhaps over the last 75 years. that's a bit of a shock to most people's political system. it shows you that courts change, especially when you have people appointing them with different views. so bottom line here, when you vote for the president, you vote for someone who is going to
7:53 am
nominate justices. the president is there for four or eight years, the justices are there for life. the folks who voted for trump ought to feel good right now. the folks who voted otherwise might be thinking about 2024. elections have consequences. >> larry, thanks so much for that. it is 7:52. up next, a look at the top stories we are following, including a mass shooting at a holiday block party in baltimore. we have the latest information
