for liz. today, president biden says he wants to ensure nobody is above the law. so he is proposing major reforms to the nation's highest court and the presidency itself. we're going to talk with the bay area law professor to break down some of these proposals and ask what it would actually take to put them in place. we're going to have that conversation coming up in just a few minutes. but first, a look at your news headlines. vice president kamala harris has selected her running mate minnesota governor tim walz, and here is a live look right now in philadelphia where vice president harris and governor walz are appearing together for the first time at a joint campaign event. let's listen in >live>we will win pennsylvania we will win pennsylvania. and i thank you, josh. i thank you so philadelphia.

>liz>all right. they are going to travel to six more battleground states this week. and the vice president plans to travel to san francisco on saturday >live>and its >liz>police >>in a bit of a >liz>whirlwind. cisco meantime, are investigating a triple shooting in the tenderloin. they say before 11 last night, they found a man at this scene at sixth and market who had been shot. he survived another person was found at seventh and stevenson also survived. but a third person who was shot died at the hospital. so far, no arrests. today waymo expanded its driverless car service to parts of the peninsula. you can now request a waymo in daly city broadmoor and colma. that comes six weeks after waymo expanded its service to everybody in san francisco daly city just cut the ribbon on a new housing development for public school teachers up to 70 employees of the jefferson elementary school district will live there. it's called eastmoor heights. it has 56 housing units. that new housing complex is the first facility of its kind for a california k through eight school district,

and the second such project for a public school district in san mateo county. all right. it is a gorgeous day outside. if you haven't been out yet. first alert weather there is a heat advisory on for some parts of the bay area, though. meteorologist zoe mintz is here. zoe how long before these temps back off? >darren>well luckily, as soon as tomorrow. it's a really one day heat wave with a gradual cooldown through the rest of the week. as this area of high pressure also known as the heat dome, we've dealt with a couple of them so far this summer, but the couple of them that we did see last month were a lot more impressive. this one today, yes, it's definitely bringing our temperatures anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees above average but it's nothing unbearable. there is that heat advisory in effect it is going to be hotter. heat safety is going to be a priority, especially for those who are sensitive to slightly higher heat here in san francisco. like ann said, it's a beautiful day. plenty of sunshine. finally seeing a little bit more of that sky, especially if you live closer to the coast. but we're still seeing that marine layer holding on strong temperatures in concord 95 degrees

livermore. it only gets hotter 101. it's not going to get any hotter from here, though. it's only going to get cooler as the night progresses. by tomorrow, we're expecting temperatures about five degrees cooler in our inland location san francisco might be a degree or two cooler, but we're at 65 right now. it's nothing unbearable nothing too shabby, as i would say. and we're also seeing a lot of that fog continuing to roll over the golden gate. it has been persistent all day long. but again, if you live anywhere in the east side of the city, you're seeing that sunshine and you're seeing plenty of it, and that's allowed our temperatures to maybe rise a degree or two above what we felt yesterday heat related illness, though, is going to be an issue, especially as we step out for our inland most locations and those areas in red, those areas in purple, that is going to be a concern today, but for not much longer. by tomorrow, we'll be seeing our temperatures already beginning to back off to the mid to lower 90s. still upper 90s though in our inland east bay communities that is a bit above average, but it's couple of degrees to maybe 6 or 7 places like san jose and

concord. again it really depends on where you are, how hot it's going to be. but it's all relative this time of year and we all live in such different microclimates. you kind of know what it's like where you are, and we're going to be seeing a typical summer pattern reemerging by the end of the week, as that high pressure system begins to back off, a more persistent sea breeze begins to pick up and that marine layer will continue to hold on tight and maybe even push a little bit further inland and maybe start impacting places like antioch and livermore. because today, yes, you do have that very high risk for heat related illness tomorrow it's not going to be as high, but it's still going to be hot. and it's a gradual cool down that's on the way and then by the time that we step out later into the week and into the weekend, finally seeing more comfortable heat again, heat continuing to back off into wednesday and thursday, no places under that high risk for heat related illness. and it only gets lower and lower from here over the next seven days. san francisco it's looking nice. 60s every single day. maybe a little bit more cloud coverage here, a little bit more there. but it's what we expect for this time of year. places like oakland will

be in the low 70s over the next several days. seeing that bay marine layer holding strong in the morning and then pulling out by the afternoon. similar story for our north bay communities will be in the mid to lower 80s and over into the santa clara valley after today, no longer seeing that heat advisory in effect. and we'll continue to see the heat inland. but if you want to escape the heat, as always, just head on over to the coast where high temperatures are going to be the low 60s. that marine layer continues to hold on strong overall. enjoy the microclimates. you always have some way to escape the heat here in the bay area. and back >liz>to you. thank you zoe. supreme court justice clarence thomas is under the microscope for another trip. he allegedly took on a megadonors private jet. that one happened in 2010 from new zealand or to new zealand, rather from hawaii. the senate finance committee chairman says justice thomas never reported that flight justice thomas has not commented its alleged actions like that, though, that have president biden proposing some major reforms to the us supreme court. at the same time, the public's approval of the nation's highest court is

at an all time low. cbs ed o'keefe looks at the president's plan on the table. >we need a mandatory code of ethics for the supreme court, and we need it now. speaking at the lyndon b johnson library, president biden says he's pushing for a constitutional amendment stating any former president could be prosecuted for crimes while in office. he thinks the nine justices should be required to disclose all major gifts and travel and recuse themselves from cases in which their spouses have financial or other conflicts of interest. >these scandals involving the justices have caused public opinion to question the court's fairness and independence, and he's calling for 18 year term limits for justices, plus a new system where the president would nominate a new justice every two years as older ones. time out. the proposals, endorsed by vice president harris, are dead on arrival in a divided congress, but should breathe even more life into a democratic party coalition revived >for him to get to the point where he thinks that the

constitution has to be amended to constrain the supreme court is a big deal. biden's ideas are all a response to the trump era. he nominated three justices who tilted at right, and he's using the court's recent ruling granting partial immunity to ex-presidents to try getting state and federal cases against him dismissed. recent reports also have documented lavish travel by justices clarence thomas and samuel alito allegedly on the dime of benefactors with interests before the court, along with the political activity of their wives, ginni thomas and martha and alito. >liz>well, republicans like house speaker mike johnson called the president's proposals dangerous and said they have no hope in a gop controlled congress former president trump also slamming those proposals. the supreme court, which has a 6 to 3 conservative majority, issued a series of landmark decisions over the past few years that have upended long standing rulings on things like abortion, affirmative action and higher education, and federal regulatory power. cbs

news legal contributor jessica levinson looks at how that is likely fueling president biden's proposal for reform >the crux is to try and reform the supreme court. frankly, in the face of its unpopularity among democrats and liberals. and the idea is to try and lessen the power of any single president to pick who's on the court. i mean, it is not a secret that president trump picked a third of the current supreme court and that has made a big difference. and it has really angered progressives and democrats so part of this is a set of reforms that people have been talking about for a long time. but a lot of this is, frankly a reaction to supreme court decisions and behavior by some of the justices that are unpopular among democrats. >liz>still ahead, we're going to talk with the bay area law professor to help break down the president's proposed reforms and what it would actually take to restore trust in the high court and how

important is public perception anyway? here are what supreme court justice neil gorsuch has to say about that >ordinary >>americans

i think it's remarkable that we were able to agree unanimously. >does this court today or in the future have to understand and care about its public perception? you raise a really interesting question about the place that that unelected judges have in a democracy, an independent judiciary. our founders fought a revolution for it because they knew what it was like to have a judiciary that was responsive to the crown to a whimsical king. and they didn't want that for this country. and the truth is, when you're the man in the dock, you don't want it either. >liz>well, joining me now, santa clara university law professor david sloss, thanks for being with us today. >live>thanks for having >liz>me. so you are actually writing a book about the supreme court right now, and it's pretty critical about how it's operating. so before we get into the specifics there, tell us a little bit about some of the main themes there. >live>well, the book really argues that the supreme court

is one of the main factors. that is driving a process of democratic decay in this country, there's a lot of concern about what people talk about as democratic decline or democratic backsliding. people point to a lot of different factors, but the book really hones in on the supreme court and what it's been doing is one of the key contributing factors to the decline of american democracy. >liz>and do you think that's a change that's been happening slowly over time, or that's really accelerated recently >live>i really would say that it's been going on for about the last 30 years, but certainly it's, accelerated in recent years. >liz>so when it comes to ethics with the supreme court, give us your take on, you know, the allegations we were talking about earlier of justices accepting things from big donors. >live>well i think at a minimum, it it creates a perception problem. so i am

supportive of president biden's proposal to create a binding code of ethics for the justices. it seems sort of odd that we don't have a binding binding code of ethics for the justices. there is one for all other federal judges, and there's no good reason that supreme court justices should be exempt from >liz>that. okay. so you're mentioning the word binding. i just want to make that clear, because last year the court did adopt a code of conduct. but you feel as if that's not going far enough >live>right? the court, adopted its own sort of guidelines, but there's no way to enforce it. so what president biden is proposing is that congress enact a statute that would make something like the code of ethics that applies to other federal judges also apply to supreme court justices >liz>well, yeah, it makes sense. why wouldn't it why have, you know, the supreme court justices sort of been able to avoid that? all these decades? >live>well, it sort of relates to the one other piece of,

president biden's proposal. he's also proposing a constitutional amendment to reverse the supreme court decision. the recent decision on presidential immunity that recent decision on presidential immunity gives us a situation where the president is above the law and the justices sort of tend to have an attitude that they're above the law, too. that's why they haven't been willing to subject themselves to a binding ethics code. >liz>okay. so yeah you're mentioning that case on presidential immunity. so that is now going back to a lower court. but what do you make of what the supreme court did with that >live>i mean, i think what i think it's one of the worst supreme court decisions we've seen in a long time. the court really is basically giving presidents a green light to violate the law. and it was very surprising to me. frankly, i didn't really expect them to come out with something like that it's a dramatic departure

from, the immunity doctrines that have been around for a long time. and it really is fundamentally at odds with the basic principle of our legal system that no person is above the law. >liz>right? right. different rules, also, when it comes to term limits, we're hearing that that could be a real tough sell within congress. talk about that debate. >live>well clearly the term limits proposal is not going anywhere as long as we have, a republican controlled house of representatives right. but i do think that, i like the term limits proposal. i should say that there are lots of different variants of this term limit proposal. so you know, when i say i like it, it depends a lot on the details. but, but, but in principle i think it's a good idea. and i do think that if you, you know, it's possible we could end up with a democratic majority in both the house and the senate

after this year's elections. and i do think that the proposal could potentially pass in a democratically controlled congress with a democratic president. but as long as the republicans are exercising control, i don't think that proposal is going anywhere anytime >liz>soon. no, i'm good point about the details. that's where you always find the devil, right? >live>that's right. that's >liz>right. santa clara university, we appreciate your perspective. we'll be right back get your first look at the re-energized 40 niners. ken brock purdy take the red and gold all the way it's the preseason opener in the music city. 40 niners. titans saturday at four on kpix

he has been a model chief executive, and with his experience, i'm telling you tim walz will be ready on day one. in fact, in fact when you compare his resume trump's running mate well well well, some might say it's like it's like a match up between the varsity team and the jv squad

ultimately in this election, we each face a question what kind of country do we want to live in a country a country of freedom, compassion and rule, of law or a country of chaos, fear and hate and here's the beauty of our democracy we each have the power to answer that question. we each have the power to answer that question. the power is with the people
