head out the window. >> yeah. >> it was. >> waved at everybody. >> i did. yes. there's that paulson again. all right. yeah a few high clouds zipping by. but dave is right. i think later today we'll get upper 60s for some. we're on the back edge of these clouds, although there is still a little bite to the air. right. gasia just a little bite. and that doesn't take long, especially this evening to see those temps drop 3040 to 50. we have a little east northeast breeze that's going to translate into some warm temps, at least for this time of year. after those higher clouds move through. now there'll be a lot of cloud cover coming in on the weekend, but it's stepping out weather for your friday, so it looks pretty good. a mix of sun and clouds. i think it will be pretty nice here today. considerable cloudiness on the weekend, but still upper 60s to near 70 for a few. well, sometimes the morning commute commute can be funky stuff. let's find out if it's friday light or not for mr. sal castaneda. >> it's not funky stuff today, that's for sure. right now we have a very nice looking commute. as a matter of fact, hold on for one second. i had zoomed in to highway four just to see how slow it is. it's slow

from about railroad avenue down to about the willow pass exit, and then traffic is moving well over the hill into the concord area. no problems on the bay bridge. here's a fresh look at the commute. you can see that traffic is moving well. 701 let's go back to the desk. >> thank you sal. happening today, the santa rosa school board will meet for a final vote to decide the fate of the district's middle and high schools. this after santa rosa city school trustees failed to reach an agreement on middle and high schools during their meeting wednesday night. the board finalized closures for elementary schools in the city. board members say they now have to make more tough decisions today due to the district's multi-million dollar budget deficit. >> it is heart-wrenching. no one, no educator, no superintendent, no position, no board member signs up to serve to close schools. >> the board has already decided to close santa rosa's brook hill and albert elementary by june of

this year. steele lane elementary closes in june of next year. >> our time now 702. the oakland unified school district tapping into some new funding now to keep clean water flowing for its students. the staff and asia curry foundation eat, learn, play, donate donated $650,000 to install more water filtration machines at oakland high schools. now, the school district began installing the machines back in 2018 after tests showed high lead levels in the drinking water in the schools. well, now all 77 schools have more than one machine. the grant will add 60 more. it will also pay for 20,000 reusable water bottles. so the students have something to drink out of. >> it was something that needed to be addressed immediately and totally in line with with our mission. so we were happy to jump in to see what role we could play on behalf of these kids. >> now, along with the new machines and those bottles, the

grant will help with upkeep of the machines. each one is built to last between 10 and 15 years. time now 703. union members and students planning a rally on the campus of sonoma state later today, rallying against cuts to university programs, including eliminating the athletic department. now, the rally comes about an hour before lawmakers meet on the campus, talking about the university's budget crisis. some faculty members, students and community leaders came up with a new plan to save money. they want to elect academic leaders to replace high paying administrative jobs. under the plan, these faculty leaders would serve terms of 3 to 5 years and be paid a modest salary. >> new. this morning, the u.s. senate pulled an all nighter as republicans lay the groundwork for president trump's legislative agenda. democrats are fighting them every step of the way. doug luzader is in washington now with more on the white house's cost cutting. hi,

doug. >> good morning. this was a ten hour session for the senate. lasted through the night. wrapped up early this morning. ultimately, this is just the start of a very long process over at the white house. meantime, the cuts continue. >> this is the chainsaw for bureaucracy. >> the billionaire elon musk wielding a chainsaw, celebrating federal spending cuts at cpac. the conservative gathering underway just outside the nation's capitol. musk saying how easy it is to slash federal spending. >> you just push on things a little bit and you save billions of dollars, like just a little bit, you know, it's wild. >> the clerk will call the roll. >> on capitol hill overnight, a little more mundane, even if the stakes are higher. >> i don't care how long it takes. we're going to deliver. >> and it did take some time, as the senate spent the night arguing over president trump's budget framework. all democrats could do was slow the process down and voice their objections. >> trump and musk are just taking a wrecking ball to the

u.s. government. >> we're finding hundreds of billions of dollars worth of fraud, waste and abuse. >> the president says the cuts may pay dividends, passing some of the savings on to taxpayers. there are some reports of possibly $5,000 checks, but that will depend on congress. and democrats are likely to fight most spending cuts. >> so no, we are not in the business of giving out money. and honestly, i don't know what $5,000 will do for you. >> now, we don't know if those checks are ultimately going to happen. the white house made it clear yesterday that it's something that congress would have to sign off on. back to you guys. >> doug, back to d.c. here. the white house is ordering the pentagon to prepare for sweeping budget cuts. is there any expected pushback from republicans? >> well, i think we have to be careful what we call budget cuts. these are cuts of 8% that are then reinvested in other parts of the pentagon. so my understanding is, is that the pentagon will not really lose

any money as a result of this. >> okay. and again, just to kind of underline the headline here, there appears to be no cooperation between republicans and democrats at this point. >> well, you know, it depends on the front. i mean, as far as the budget cuts are concerned, i mean, that's generally the case that this is something that generally adheres to party lines. >> okay. doug lozada in washington. thank you. >> all right, doug, thank you. time now. 7063 bay area federal government buildings are reportedly on a list of assets that might be sold by the government. according to the chronicle, the nancy pelosi federal building on seventh and mission is on the list of non-core assets, along with the federal office building at 50 un plaza, the leo ryan federal building in san bruno is also reportedly on that list. the general services administration and the department of government efficiency announced a plan to cut the amount of federal office space in half. well, former

house speaker nancy pelosi joined community leaders for a roundtable discussion on how the republican led budget could hurt residents of san francisco. the meeting was held at the sf marin food bank on potrero hill. congresswoman pelosi said the republican proposal to cut medicaid threatens health care for about 100,000 people in san francisco, including 20,000 children. the congresswoman pelosi says this proposal affects a lot more than just low income families. >> medicaid is viewed as a poor children initiative, and it is. and that's enough justification. but it's a middle class benefit as well, because middle class families across america use medicaid funds. a great deal of medicaid funds are used. >> for the congresswoman. pelosi also criticized the proposal to give $4 trillion in tax breaks to big corporations. >> today is the start of president trump's second month of his second term. in his first

month, the president signed 73 executive orders, many of them serving his mission to slash the size of government with elon musk and the department of government efficiency leading the way. so far, courts have mostly allowed them to make cuts to the federal workforce. >> what's capturing the public's attention is doge and what's going on with elon musk, but kind of running downstream, if you will, a little ways. what's going to be a hugely important is immigration. that's a big deal in california. and whether or not you're going to do things relative to fema. that's important for los angeles and for analyzing aid, disaster aid, for the recovery there in the wake of the wildfires. >> professor mckeown notes that many are watching to see if consumer prices will remain high. since lowering costs was one of president trump's key campaign promises. >> our time now 709. happening today, the man accused of shooting and killing the ceo of united health care in new york is back in court. take a look at luigi mangione's first court

appearance since his arraignment in december. he's 26 years old. he pleaded not guilty to several counts of murder. mangione also faces federal charges that could include the death penalty. prosecutors say his state charges are expected to go to trial first. a judge could set a trial date later today. >> california state legal office has rejected a new fuel standard, calling it confusing and unclear. the new standard would have offered incentives for cleaner fuels and has faced opposition because it would raise gas prices. the regulations were an update to our state's low carbon fuel standard, was expected to increase costs on oil refineries in an effort to decrease greenhouse gases by 30% by the year 2030. there is concern the cost of those cleaner fuels would be passed directly on to consumers. the air board has 120 days to review and resubmit the rules. >> time is 710. we do have a very favorable friday going on here. i like what i see out there. you can see the traffic

is moving along very nicely. it's just kind of scrolling along the maps and i don't see a lot. i do see some slowing on highway four from railroad avenue this morning to willow pass, but that's about the biggest slowing we've had. we haven't had a big backup at all at the bay bridge toll plaza. that's a minor delay there. once you get on to the bridge, it looks good. so it's obvious that sometimes on fridays, either people work from home or we've got a three day weekend going for some. 710. let's go back to the desk. >> all right. thank you. well, san francisco high school underwent major renovations. we'll show you the improvements that were made thanks to a couple of nfl stars. >> two online platforms widely used by children are being sued. why? roblox and discord are accusing of are accused of failing to protect children against predators. >> after a car accident.

consolidations. officials say closing several schools would save $12.5 million. the district is facing a $20 million deficit. we'll move now to san francisco, as the police union there is reportedly asking the embattled san mateo county sheriff, christina corpus, not to attend an upcoming event celebrating women in law enforcement. this, according to the chronicle, an independent report accused sheriff corpus of misconduct, including using insensitive language and having an intimate relationship with her chief of staff. and the trump administration is launching an investigation into $4 billion of federal funding for california's high speed rail project. the transportation secretary, sean duffy, said the money could be shifted to other projects. you'll remember voters first approved bonds for the project back in 2008. since then, the estimated cost has ballooned from $33 billion to now $106 billion. >> our time now 715. two online platforms that are very popular with children now facing legal problems in san mateo county.

the lawsuit claims a 13 year old boy was taken advantage of by a man who pretended to be a teenager. ktvu is andre senior in the studio with more on this. andre. >> well, david, the lawsuit says a predator posed as a 16 year old on the online gaming platform roblox and the messaging platform discord. it goes on to say the 28 year-old sebastian romero groomed the teen through the game in discord messages. the lawsuit also says the alleged predator said paid the boy for explicit videos and photos using a digital currency used on roblox. >> the predator then tried to pay a larger sum of robux to meet up and have sex. the predator found out the address of the child. >> the attorney says the man then threatened the boy after he failed to show up. the boy's parents later found text messages between the two and contacted police. the attorney says the man accused of preying on the boy was recently sentenced to 12 years in prison in a sextortion case involving

a. >> you hear about them. unfortunately, all too frequently when it comes to gaming platforms or social media platforms, we try and encourage parents at common sense media to make sure that they are really paying attention to what their kids are doing online. >> in a statement, roblox said roblox takes the safety of its community very seriously, adding the company is constantly launching new safety measures. discord has not responded yet or acknowledged the lawsuit publicly. the lawsuit, also against both roblox and discord, calls for better security on these platforms. this comes as parents continue to push for stricter restrictions on social media apps such as instagram, tiktok and facebook as well. dave. >> all right. andre. thank you. time now. 717. the federal trade commission wants to hear public comment about alleged censorship by tech platforms. now, reuters is reporting that fcc chairman andrew ferguson called for an investigation into whether tech companies stifled right wing speech and whether advertisers work together to pull spending from certain sites like x. the

agency opened a public comment window that will stay open until may 21st. >> 717. not too much of an issue getting around for the most part right now. >> gasia this commute is good. >> oh, good. >> it is good. i'd like to say that just because this. i think this is the best commute we've had so far in 2025 when i've been working anyway. i mean, you might even stand up and sing when you look at this. look at the bay bridge, it looks nice. and we have not had a backup this morning at all. you can see the traffic is moving along very nicely. 880 though we do have some slow traffic approaching downtown oakland. now there is a crash reported or something reported at high street. actually, it's not a crash. it's a car fire. so the fire department is there, and it looks like the this was just reported a little while ago. the fire department has just is just arriving now. so that's making it slow there. i actually see the smoke from the car fire in this picture. if it's right

underneath our live bug there. but anyway, it's going to take a while for this to unwind. 718 let's bring steve back in. >> so what you're saying for most it's a smooth drive straight ahead. >> yes it is. you're absolutely right. >> thank you sir. all right. we'll get to it here. 18 in truckee, 19 in south lake tahoe. carson city, 25 reno is down to 23. if you're heading up to the mountains. all good to go. february totals. remember, january was not our rain or snow, friend, but february has been rather kind. palisades, sugar bowl, boreal sierra, snow lab at soda springs, northstar, kirkwood, bear valley, and heavenly all between 50 and 96in of new snow. so that puts us at statewide average for the date at 94%, 119% to the north tahoe central. that's 90% southern sierra 74. these numbers will go down because there's really nothing in the pipeline until sometime in march. the last rain in the city was only two days ago. it looks like nothing until

maybe early march. in the for what it's worth category, some of the climate models really wet things up here about the second and third week of march, so i think things will change. it's just going to take a little bit. february, i think we're done. as far as climate history, record lows on february 21st. san jose the winner 25 degrees on this date in 1897. livermore 28, 2006. santa cruz 30, 1955. kentfield 29, 1953. napa was also 1955 at 29 and gilroy 31, 1976 a few high clouds are cruising by. i think these are more in the morning and then after that we're good to go for mostly sunny skies, 30s, 40s and 50s. there is a little north northeast breeze and then there hills, and that's making for some warmer temps. certainly bayside areas, 40 for some woodside, atherton, stanford all in there. miller point though, is 47 degrees. los altos hills checking in at 50 to the north. there's not much going on. it's quiet and that system will drag across considerable cloudiness starting late saturday, more

likely sunday into monday, which may prevent us from warming up more so if we had clear skies. just a heads up, you're like, man, it's cloudy, but it will be mild. and then that will take us into early next week. tuesday looks to be the best opportunity to maybe see 74 or 75 on high temperatures. stepping out weather no doubt. mostly sunny today. it will be nice. 60s to near 70. >> thank you steve. coming up, new research suggests what was supposed to be a life saving medication that was widely used during the pandemic doesn't work as well as once thought. the new insight into paxlovid. >> and recently, relations between the u.s. and canada have been as cold as ice because of politics. it's a tense time as these neighboring countries meet in a championship hockey game, you'll hear the jab taken by canada's prime minister at

spring training play this weekend. their first exhibition game of the season is against the texas rangers at the spring training home of the rangers in arizona. major league baseball says about three out of every five games will experiment with the automated ball strike system. the challenge system is a compromise between the new technology, where all balls and strike calls are automated, and the status quo. manager bob melvin is excited for exhibition play. skeptical, though, about that new tech. >> i'm going to let it play out to start, and then we'll see how it goes. i mean, spring training games, you know, i have no familiarity with it. i look at the walk rates in triple-a and the walk rates at the big leagues. it's a lot different

when guys come up and when they go to triple-a, they walk more guys. so i'm sure the system has something to do with that. you know, i haven't been a part of it. i'm going to feel it out first. and if guys are, you know, ridiculous with it, then we'll probably put some parameters on it. but i'm certainly not going to. lamont wade says challenges. i'm not going to have a problem with that. >> melvin says right handed pitcher landon rupe, who is fighting for a spot on the roster, will get tomorrow's start. >> all right. our time is 724, a new weight room at san francisco's balboa high school was unveiled. it was built with the help of the 49ers star christian mccaffrey and the commanders running back, austin ekeler. now, the foundations for both of those players teamed up on the project. students have already been using the new equipment, but yesterday was the first time that ekeler saw the completed gym. he says the renovation is not just about equipment, but also it's about supporting the neighborhood. >> when there's a place that's in need, as balboa high school was, this is what the austin

ekeler foundation does. goes in and actually finds a place and then also helps uplift that bring the community together so that everyone in that community and those players can also, you know, benefit from that. >> now last year the balboa varsity football team won the division seven, a state championship. >> canadian prime minister justin trudeau takes to social media to gloat following his country's victory against the u.s. in ice hockey. president trudeau took a jab at president trump, posted on his official exit count. you can't take our country and you can't take our game. of course, for weeks, president trump has threatened canadian tariffs and suggested canada become the 51st state in our country. canada beat the u.s. in boston last night, 3 to 2, in overtime to win the four nations face-off, a mini tournament featuring canada, the u.s, finland and sweden. canada and the u.s. squared off in the finals. the political backdrop added to the drama, making this exhibition tournament feel more like a stanley cup final or olympic gold medal final. a feud has been developing in recent weeks between the neighboring countries. of course, in their last match in montreal, some canadians booed the

star-spangled banner. there were also three fights in the first nine seconds of that game. >> well, it is an amazing story about a remarkable young woman. we'll hear from a basketball player with only one arm, but it's not stopping her from living out her hoop dreams. >> california gives the green light for two insurance companies to raise rates. which one is planning a

in california's high speed rail project. the white house says there are other ways to spend that money. and in san francisco, a controversial sculpture first unveiled at the burning man festival was supposed to be displayed at union square. the reason those plans for the project were called off. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two. >> well, good morning and welcome back to mornings on two. i'm dave clark. >> i'm gasia mikaelian. it is friday, february 21st. there will be no juggling of baseball games and birthday parties. we don't have to worry about the rain this weekend, steve. >> no, we do not. it will be. there will be clouds, but don't have to worry about rain, that's

for sure. and it will be on the mild side. sutro tower is nice enough to send out a tweet, so thank you for that. good morning friday sunrise. today is going to be a beautiful day. these clouds will clear. they also said whatever is at work can wait until monday. get out and i agree with them. it's going to be nice today. the cloud cover almost through with it. now there will still be some zipping by, but we're looking for mostly sunny skies, 30 for a few 40 to almost 50. there is a decent little breeze coming in off the oakland berkeley hills. i think that will make for a nice day. berkeley. el cerrito, kensington and oakland and emeryville look pretty nice there with that offshore breeze today. maybe pushing about 6566 today is okay. cloud cover will start to roll in here over the weekend, but we'll still be on the mild side with upper 60s to near 70. so it's a nice nice pattern here for the end of february. getting close to it i should say with 63 to 68 on the high side. all right. last time we spoke with sal there was a little fire. car fire. yes. no. >> that's right. and you know what i had been talking about, steve? i've been talking about the life commute. but i don't

want anyone to feel misled by this because there's still some slow traffic. northbound 880 approaching high street. and that's because of a car fire. the fire is already out, but for a while it was definitely too hot there. traffic is going to be better after you pass high street and get up into downtown oakland. 580 is a good alternate bay bridge. now this is looking very good. a minor delay, and then you go on to the bridge with no problems. 731 let's go back to the desk. >> so thank you. happening today, a man arrested for hit and run crash that killed a former uc berkeley professor is set to make his first court appearance. retired sociology professor michael boro was hit while crossing grand avenue near lake merritt in oakland earlier this month. police say 61 year old kermit miller was behind the wheel and say he left the scene. investigators say they were able to link miller to the hit and run after finding the retired professor's hearing aid on the shattered window of his vehicle. >> our time now. 732. well, happening today, federal

oversight is coming to california's controversial high speed rail project. president trump's transportation secretary said that project is severely off track. ktvu jesse gary is in san francisco with more details. good morning. jesse. >> dave, good morning again to you. it seems like we've got a theme this week. yesterday it was the presidio trust. today, high speed rail. president trump saying he wants a compliance review of the project with a very distinct likelihood federal funding will be pulled. >> i think the transportation here is amazing. and i think that to cut that is honestly insane. the people here really depend on that. that transportation, of course. and him just cutting unnecessary things is just his dictatorship in my opinion. >> state voters passed a bond measure in 2008 to link the fourth and king street station in san francisco with southern california. the initial project cost was $33 billion, with a completion date of 2020. 2020

was five years ago, with $16 billion having been spent. the feds kicked in about $2.5 billion, but now the project is projected to cost wait for it $106 billion. president trump says it's the worst managed project he's ever seen. transportation secretary sean duffy says it's a waste of taxpayers money. >> the project's not going to happen. there is no there is no timeline in which you're going to have a high speed rail that goes from la to san francisco. that timeline does not exist, and the estimates are incredibly rough on the dollar front. >> it's like he's of course he's going to deny it because it's california. but it's just like, you know, i think it's needed. i think we need it. you know. >> so even though it's behind schedule and way over budget, you're still say, keep going. >> yeah. >> even with federal financial assistance, the state is still short, about $6.5 billion to complete the project. duffy says

he'll look at if it should be completed at all. we're live in san francisco this morning. jesse gary, ktvu, fox two news. dave, back to you. across the bay. >> all right, jesse, thank you. time now, 7.34. democratic congressman mark desaulnier held a town hall in moraga, talking about the first month of the trump administration and also to listen to his constituents. the town hall was at saint mary's college in moraga. hundreds of people from california's 10th congressional district were there. congressman desaulnier answered questions submitted ahead of time by the audience, but some in the audience did not feel assured. >> over 300,000 missing migrant children. that's concerning. he didn't mention anything about that. he just went on about fighting trump rather than working with them. >> these are not. >> normal times that we are staring down the barrel of our constitution being destroyed. >> so congressman desaulnier also talked about a democratic action plan that includes resolutions to oppose the trump

administration's plan to shut down the department of education, and also president trump's withdrawal from the paris climate agreement. >> there is a lot of fear spreading on social media surrounding reports that president trump's immigration crackdown goes beyond people who are in this country illegally. some people worry people who are here legally with green cards could now be at risk. in one tiktok video with almost 3 million views, a woman says her niece, a nursing student with a green card, was deported upon returning to lax from laos. the woman says customs workers took her niece to a room where she was told people who leave the u.s. after having a green card for less than two years cannot get back into this country. they said her green card would be taken away. >> that's unlawful. they can't do that. they can be interrogated alone without the assistance of counsel because of sometimes misinformation or desperation. they unknowingly sign away their rights, and that results in the abandonment of resident status.

>> the attorney says people with green cards are allowed to travel out of the country for 180 days when they return. some people are being pressured into signing documents to give up their lawful permanent resident status. the attorney says customs workers are only allowed to ask questions about your identity or to show permanent resident status. >> our time now. 736 california could soon strengthen its status as a safe haven for the transgender community. state senator scott wiener just introduced a new bill to block law enforcement from getting access to the medical records of transgender patients without a warrant. it would also make sharing that private information a crime. senator wiener says the bill is a direct response to president trump's moves to limit transgender rights, including a recent executive order that rolls back legal recognition. the bill is backed by groups like planned parenthood and equality california. now it heads to the state legislature.

well, the plans to erect a 45 foot tall nude woman sculpture in union square is now been canceled. the artwork debuted in 2015 at the burning man festival. it weighs more than 16,000 pounds. organizers say the sculpture, called r evolution, had been scheduled to be unveiled two weeks ago. according to the chronicle, engineering problems made placement of that huge steel artwork not feasible. the artist is now looking for a new location in the city to install the sculpture. >> state regulators have now given two major insurers approval to raise rates. mercury general will begin raising rates for homeowners late next month by an average of 12%. liberty mutual will begin raising its home insurance policy rates by an average of more than 7% in may. mercury says the increase is not related to the recent southern california wildfires. the requests were filed with state regulators back in june to help offset the increasing cost

of home repairs, construction, labor and building materials. >> all right, time 738. hey, sal. i'm liking the way you're doing friday light today. >> yeah. you know, i think a lot of people like it. dave garcia, you know, you can see the commute is lighter, and right now, it at the bay bridge toll plaza, for example. it's definitely lighter heading across into san francisco. we did have some slow traffic on 880. that's clearing up now, because the car fire that was at high street was put out. all the lanes are open. we should be back to normal pretty soon, but you can see it kind of left a bigger footprint here from san leandro into downtown. happily, 580 is great. from castro valley all the way to the lake shore area. if you want to go that way, that would be the best bet. 739 let's talk about today's weather. >> all right. so thank you. we'll get right to it here before we get to our what looks to be a nice friday, we'll take a look at the climate history on the record lows for this date.

this satellite is, i'm going to move right on past it. a lot of high clouds will be moving in, so even though we'll be dry, this cloud cover will start to paint us on saturday evening. and then for sure it looks like sunday into monday. that will probably take the edge off some of the high temps. so most will be in the 60s. maybe tuesday we could get around 7475 degrees. there's no rain in sight yet, although there are some signs we'll get back into it into march. but stepping out weather today it will be nice. mostly sunny, 60 to near 70 on the highs. >> weather is nice, traffic is good. we thought we'd do something fun on this friday, right? there's a lot of talk and excitement about a new bob's donuts opening up in the city. we'll take you there through the morning. >> so that led us to our poll question of the day. and andre senior, who's right here with our poll. >> i don't make the list. i just report on them. okay. my donuts not on this list. but we'll get to the list first and then we'll talk about it. all right. what is your go to donut order? that is your question today. glazed chocolate, old fashioned maple bear claw sugar jelly filled.

significantly reduce the number of covid hospitalizations in older adults who are vaccinated. the report suggests paxlovid doesn't work and says its effectiveness is lower for vaccinated older adults than was previously reported in unvaccinated adults. researchers also note paxlovid effectiveness at reducing hospitalizations in older vaccinated adults is about four times weaker than previously reported. friends and family are remembering a south lake tahoe man who died in an avalanche this week in the lake tahoe area. friends found frederick ross's body near luther pass on february 17th after he didn't return from backcountry skiing. thanks to his avalanche transponder, a friend and former colleague described ross as academic, technical and social someone with a natural ability to bring people together. >> he was friends with everybody. and when i saw i posted, i created the gofundme and then posted it on linkedin, which is, you know, the platform. the solar industry is

very heavily in. i got probably 50 phone calls from people in the us, india, china, morocco. >> since ross death, friends, family and colleagues from around the world have come together to support his wife and two children. >> all right. our time is 747. we're talking about metta this morning. metta is increasing the bonuses paid to its executives right after metta cut jobs. >> pam cook is looking into this and more in today's dollars and cents. >> yes, certainly an interesting story in light of their recent reports, metta has authorized bonuses for its executives that will be about 200% of their base salary. that's up from the typical 75% of their salary bonus. and right after metta announced it's cutting 5% of its workers. metta says it is to stay competitive. as the opening bell rang this morning, unitedhealth stock dropped about $43 a share. that's on reports of a government investigation of its medicare billing practices.

now, this also follows the killing of unitedhealth ceo and also an expensive cyber attack against its subsidiary. also, regarding the high cost of medical expenses. as we take a live look, the drop for unitedhealth definitely weighing heavily on the dow. in addition to that, the university of michigan consumer sentiment index came in this morning. for january. it's down about 10%. and that also weighing in on the markets. as you can see the dow jones it was down about 400 points. it's come back a little bit since that mark. the s&p 500 and the nasdaq are both down as well. the nasdaq is slipping about three quarters of a percent. a city in solano county is warning the public about a scam over water testing across fairfield. people are going door to door telling residents that their water is contaminated. one woman says two people were captured on her doorbell camera. they're insisting that they need to come inside to test her

water. >> he says what we're doing in the neighborhood is we're checking the nine 4533 zip codes, which your water is contaminated. he was insistent. that was my concern. he was insistent. well, let me just go in, you know, two minutes. two minutes, i said. nope. not happening. >> good for her. that was the right thing to do. she also called the city the next day. michael. heather is the city of fairfield's assistant public works director who handles the city's water utilities. he says they have received numerous calls about this group going door to door, and he wants to stress they do not work for the city. do not let them in your home and the water is safe. in california has officially nominated the late steve jobs to represent the state on the american innovation $1 coin. the program, launched in 2018 by the u.s. mint to celebrate american ingenuity. governor newsom nominated jobs for the california coin the bid there, saying his legacy is deeply tied

to the state of california and global innovation. the california coin will be available in 2026. i'm pam cook. that's a look at your dollars and cents. >> all right pam thank you. time now. 750 a college basketball player who has only one arm is making history on the basketball court. her name is bailey cinnamon daniel. she goes to lesley university in massachusetts. her head coach says the 22 year old guard is the first women's division three basketball player with one arm to score in the collegiate game. look at her immediately after she made the shot. the coach called a timeout to celebrate that accomplishment. >> i think any team in this country would benefit from having a player with bailey's heart on their team. >> playing basketball with one arm is definitely something that is difficult, but also has instilled a tremendous amount of determination within myself.

>> now, bailey cinnamon daniel battled through many challenges as you can imagine, including she was cut from her high school basketball team as a senior. so accomplishing this first means even more to her. >> she has a lot of strength. yes she does. look at that smile. >> all right, let's get out to the traffic center. sal castaneda, this has been, to echo your words, a pretty nice commute. >> it sure has been. garcia and dave, good morning to you both. i like what i see out there. we're starting with the best news first, and that would be the bay bridge. we have not had a backup there all morning long. it has been very nice. no major problems if you're driving on 880. still recovering from an earlier car fire that was on the road northbound, 880 at high, but they moved it to the side. the fire is out. everyone is driving by taking a look. that's why it's a little slow. highway four is slow. pittsburgh to concord. not that unusual there, but 680 looks good into walnut creek. 752. what about today's

weather? here's steve. >> thank you kindly, sal. all right. we'll get to it here. 30, 40 to 50 on the temps. a lot of high clouds drifting over in the morning. i think we would have been colder where they have cleared. there are 30 santa rosa, petaluma and san anselmo, mostly 40 to 50. there is a little bit of an offshore breeze up in the oakland berkeley hills, but we can find plenty of 30s north upper lakes in there. middletown, windsor, petaluma, sonoma, novato, fairfax, point reyes station and then other 40 point reyes and richmond, both at 49 degrees. fix that graphic one of these days, i'll fix it. a lot of cloud cover is on the way. not today. we've had some in the morning here, but then. now clear out. you'll see these clouds dragging across us over the weekend. saturday evening, saturday night, sunday, monday for sure. and i think that will. and no rain expected unless you're up in mendocino county north, especially up in the north coast. but that's going to keep us, i think, from really jumping on the temps. if it wasn't for the cloud cover, we'd

probably be around 74 or 75, but we'll still be mild for the weekend. so stepping out weather, no doubt. lots of sunshine today. no high clouds coming by, but no biggie. 60s to near 70 and the warmest temps will be east and south. we'll go with that, but a lot of cloud cover will be on the way, but still temperatures upper 60s to near 70 degrees. dave. >> for decades, our institutions of higher learning prevented black folks from attending. >> state leaders with several bills for protecting and empowering black californians. up next at 8:00, the new legislation is a trump administration takes aim at diversity initiatives and glazed donuts, maple donuts, sprinkles on donuts. well known donut shop in san francisco expanding its

who at 756, a south bay lawmaker wants to preserve open spaces from future farming and development. state senator dave cortese wants a bill that strengthens a program that supports agricultural conservation and sustainable land management. california would set aside $20 million for projects like paying farmers to reduce the amount of land they grow crops on. supporters tell the bay area news group that proposal prevents food insecurity and also conserves space for wildlife. but a lack of funding jeopardizes whether that measure will pass. well,

today is a big day for an iconic donut shop in san francisco. it's been in business for 70 years. it's bob's donuts. it will open the doors on its new storefront on polk street, just down the street from its original location. employees have been busy working all night getting ready for this morning's ribbon cutting ceremony, which will happen in just a couple of hours. >> it's been a process to just get all of this remodeling done. you know, we have just a lot more space here to make more donuts now. >> mayor daniel lurie and several other san francisco city leaders are expected to be there at the donut shop today. bob's donuts first opened in san francisco in the 1950s. the current owners bought that shop 20 years later. now, make sure you stay tuned, because bob's donuts is a part of our question of the day today. >> it's definitely scary. i have a little sister and the thought of anything like that ever

happening to her genuinely freaks me out. >> a popular platform platforms popular with children are now being sued. the allegations that the websites became a hunting ground for predators, then. >> a federal government that has sought to erase us, to take us backwards. >> ready to fight. that's the bold statement by california's legislative black caucus as the trump administration takes aim at diversity initiatives. the work to repair discrimination suffered by descendants of african americans and pushing past democratic objections. senate republicans claim a victory in adopting a budget blueprint for president trump's agenda. why the overnight vote is now putting pressure on the gop controlled house. >> from ktvu, fox two news. this is mornings on two. >> good morning. welcome to mornings on two. look live at the east shore freeway and you can see the sun is shining brightly this morning. it just continues to get like that. and we're ushering that brightness and that warmer weather into the weekend. thank you so much for joining us. i'm andre senior.

>> good morning i'm gasia mikaelian. it is friday, february 21st steve paulson. we're all hoping not to have to turn on the heater. today is today. that day? >> not in the afternoon. you mean. >> like in the morning? and in the. >> little chill? there's still a couple of 30s. i mean, we're not there yet. okay. but in the afternoon, it will be nice. we'll have 60s to maybe near 70. i think these higher clouds are scooting out of the picture here pretty fast. now. today will be nice, but by by the weekend though a lot of cloud cover will be coming in. but it does. there is a definite chill here once that sun sets. we're not there yet. it's still only february, but it looks good today. looks nice. 40s 50s to start, but still petaluma, san anselmo, petaluma and santa rosa are all in the 30s this morning. and look at that east northeast breeze right above the caldecott northeast, 33 above the oakland zoo 24. so that will translate into warm temps here. and it looks good for your friday. a lot of cloud cover on the weekend, but still be okay. stepping out for your weather here. a mix of sun, a lot of sun, a few clouds, 60 to maybe a few pushing the upper 60 or 70.

all right, so here for the most part, it's been friday light at 8:00. he tells us. >> it looks good out there. i like what i see, steve, the bay bridge, minor delays here. and you can see traffic is moving along very well. now. we did have some delays on 880 northbound. it's becoming better. and now that that vehicle that was on fire has been removed from the freeway completely, it looks like we have a fresh new start here on 880. highway four still has some slowing from pittsburgh to concord. south bay light. 801 let's go back to the headlines. >> thank you sal. two online platforms widely used by children are being sued in san mateo county. >> that lawsuit claims a 13 year old boy was taken advantage of by a man who posed as a 16 year old on the online game platform roblox and the messaging platform discord. it goes on to say that 28 year-old sebastian romero groomed the teen through the game and discord messages. the lawsuit also says the alleged predator paid the boy

for explicit videos and photos using a digital currency on roblox. >> the predator then tried to pay a larger sum of robux to meet up and have sex. the predator found out the address of the child. >> the attorney says the man then threatened the boy after he failed to show up. the boy's parents later found text messages between the two and contacted police. the attorney says the man accused of preying on the boy was recently sentenced to 12 years in prison and a sextortion case involving another boy. >> you hear about them, unfortunately, all too frequently when it comes to gaming platforms or social media platforms. we try and encourage parents that common sense media to make sure that they are really paying attention to what their kids are doing online. >> in a statement, roblox said, quote, roblox takes the safety of its community very seriously. the company also added this it is constantly launching new safety features. it said discord has yet to respond or acknowledge the lawsuit

publicly. >> new this morning, senate republicans have taken a big step in advancing president trump's agenda, passing a $340 billion budget framework early today. it mainly focuses on funding for mass deportations and border security. the senate pulled an all nighter for a series of amendment votes. gop senator rand paul joined all democrats in opposing the resolution. house speaker mike johnson is assembling a separate budget package, one that seeks up to $2 trillion in reductions to several programs. today marks the start of president trump's second month of his second term. in his first month, the president signed 73 executive orders, many of them serving his mission to slash the size of government with elon musk and the department of government efficiency leading the way. so far, courts have mostly allowed them to make cuts to the federal workforce. >> it's capturing the public's attention is doge and what's going on with elon musk, but kind of running downstream, if you will, a little ways. what's going to be a hugely important is immigration. that's a big deal in california. and whether

or not you're going to do things relative to fema. that's important for los angeles and for analyzing aid, disaster aid, for the recovery there in the wake of the wildfires. >> professor mcewen notes many are watching to see if consumer prices will remain high. since lowering costs was one of the president's key campaign promises. >> at 800, three of the california legislative black caucus proposed a package of reparations for descendants of african americans who were enslaved in the united states. caucus members say it will be a multiyear effort to repair the generational harms and discrimination suffered by the descendants of slaves in california. >> to allow them to consider preferential admissions, treatment for descendants of enslaved person in this country. will be focusing on testing, lineage and reinstating descendants as protected classes. >> the package contains 15 bills. proposals include preferences for public university admissions and financial assistance for first time homebuyers.

>> we in the california legislative black caucus stand ready with our legislative package and advocacy to build the road of repair for black californians. >> in 2020, governor newsom and california lawmakers formed a first in the state task force to study and propose remedies for legacies of slavery. >> california's state legal office has rejected a new fuel standard, calling it confusing and unclear. the new standard would have offered incentives for cleaner fuels, and has faced opposition because it would likely raise prices. the regulations were an update to the state's low carbon fuel standard. it was expected to increase costs on oil refineries in an effort to decrease greenhouse gases by 30% by the year 2030. there is concern the cost of those cleaner fuels would be passed directly on to consumers. the air board has 120 days to review and resubmit the rules. >> union members and students are planning a rally on the sonoma state campus later today to rally against cuts to university programs, including eliminating the athletic department. the rally comes about an hour before lawmakers meet on campus to discuss the

university's budget crisis. some faculty members, students and community leaders have come up with a new plan to save money. they want to elect academic leaders to replace high paying administrative positions. under the plan, these faculty leaders would serve terms of 3 to 5 years at modest salaries. california community colleges are fighting back against financial aid fraud. a new report found that fraud costs the state more than $10.3 million last year alone. scammers often use fake ids to apply to community colleges. enrolling classes apply for financial aid. then they take the money and run. but community college leaders say they are taking several new steps to fight this problem, and they include using high tech equipment that can recognize phony student applications. the community colleges have established multi-factor authentication for online student accounts, and they are checking the records of all types of fraud cases from california and beyond. >> canadian prime minister justin trudeau takes to social media to gloat following his

country's victory against the u.s. in ice hockey. president trudeau to president trudeau, that is, took a jab at president trump by posting on his official x account, you can't take our country and you can't take our game. for weeks, president trump has threatened canadian tariffs and suggested canada become the 51st state in our country. canada beat the u.s. in boston last night, 3 to 2 in overtime to win the four nations face off, a mini tournament featuring canada, the u.s, finland and sweden. canada and the u.s. squared off in the finals. the political backdrop added to drama, making this exhibition tournament feel more like a stanley cup final or olympic gold medal final. the feud has been developing in recent weeks between the neighboring countries and their last game in montreal. some canadians booed the star-spangled banner. there were also three fights in the first nine seconds of that game. >> time now is 807, and we do have slow traffic this morning on highway four, as we're going to look at on the maps here, you can see that traffic is getting better, though. it's really is

improving quite a bit. the next time we'll show you a live picture of that. this is a live picture of the bay bridge. i like what i see there, and even the trouble spot we had on 880 northbound has cleared up to the point where traffic is almost as light as it was before we had a car fire at high street. that fire has been cleared out. we can look at the south bay commute and that commute is okay. however, southbound 17 near hamilton, there is a crash and unfortunately southbound 17 not playing along. we have a backup for at least a mile on southbound 17, heading out toward 85. 808 now let's go back to the desk. >> so thank you. making sure the water flowing to oakland schools is safe to drink. the bay area superstar stepping in to make a generous donation. >> i remember when i remember when i asked you if there was anything illegal in the car. yeah. yeah. >> a traffic stop leads to an unexpected reunion. why? police were able to make one family's

day. and why the driver is now under arrest. >> after a car accident. [music] beware of insurance companies bearing small checks. if you've been injured, you may feel pressured to settle too soon and for too little money. don't be fooled. the minute you sign, your claim is over. no matter how serious your injuries are or how many bills come in later, choose jacoby and meyers. for over 50 years, we've turned low insurance offers into big settlements. call us and find out what we can win for you. jacoby and meyers because everyone

811. the santa rosa school district will meet today for a final vote on school closures and consolidations. officials there say closing several schools would save $12.5 million. the school board voted to close three elementary schools earlier this week. today's meeting focuses on middle and high schools. the district facing a $20 million deficit. >> the san francisco police union reportedly asking embattled san mateo county sheriff christina corpus not to attend an upcoming event celebrating women in law enforcement. an independent report accused sheriff corpus of misconduct, including using insensitive language and having an intimate relationship with

her chief of staff. the man accused of killing, shooting and killing the ceo of united health care in new york city is back in court today. this is luigi mangione's first court appearance since his arraignment. that was back in december. the 26 year old pleaded not guilty to multiple counts of murder. mangione also faces federal charges that could include the death penalty. prosecutors say his state charges are expected to go to trial first. the judge could set a trial for that today. >> the oakland unified school district is tapping into new funds to help make sure students have access to clean drinking water. stefan and aisha curry's foundation has donated $650,000 to install install more water filtration machines at oakland schools. the district began installing them back in 2018 after tests showed high levels of lead in school drinking water. now, all 77 schools have more than one machine. the grant will pay for 60 more. it will also pay for 20,000 reusable water bottles for students. >> something that needed to be addressed immediately and totally in line with with our

mission. so we were happy to jump in to see what role we could play on behalf of these kids. >> the grant will help with upkeep of the machines. each is built to last 10 to 15 years. >> santa cruz is concerned about safety at a busy intersection after a pedestrian was hit and killed. it happened overnight where highway one meets river street. police say the victim was pronounced dead at the scene despite life saving measures. community members say this happens too often in this area. >> i do know of at least one fatality and an old neighbor who was hit there and was in the hospital from from just cars just kind of blazing through. >> pedestrians need more time to get across that stretch of the road. yeah, it creates a dangerous situation. >> the city of santa cruz says caltrans had a plan drafted in april of 2021 to improve the intersection with added lanes and bike paths. city officials say this crash marks the fifth reported pedestrian related collision in the area since

2023. >> now to southern california, where police found a family stolen chihuahua during a traffic stop over the past weekend. the dog, named tucker, was taken from his front yard. police found tucker in a basket in the back seat of a car. they'd stopped for a traffic violation. >> what's that dog's name? what's that dog's name? it's your friend's. go out and separate your feet. hey. yeah. hey. yeah. is it. is that tucker? tucker? that dog's name? tucker? yeah. oh. it is. yeah. that's an unlucky day for you. tucker. hey, puppies! >> you're not gonna bite me, are you? >> the man driving was arrested. we don't know what charges he's facing, but tucker is now safe and sound and back with his owners. >> time is 815, and we still have a crash in san jose campbell area. and this would be on southbound 17 right there. southbound 17 traffic at camden avenue. it's an injury crash,

and traffic is backed up nearly from the 280 interchange. this vehicle was seen speeding prior to the collision and was apparently, according to witnesses, driving recklessly and then got into a crash. southbound 17 near camden avenue. northbound 880 recovering. now this is recovering after some earlier problems near high street. there was a car fire there. bay bridge has absolutely no backup here. that's great news. driving into san francisco at 815. weather should be nice today, i think, is what i heard the man say here. steve. >> i think you know it will be sal. that is correct, sir. all right. reno 28. i saw him down to 25. truckee 19 and then 20 for south lake tahoe, minden and also carson city in there. be nice. after that snow, they had february totals. remember, january was not our rain and snow friend. but february has been nice. palisades. sugar bowl, boreal. sierra. snow lab, soda springs, northstar,

kirkwood, bear valley, heavenly. all between 50 and 96in of snow through the first 20 days. the sierra snowpack is doing pretty well here. 94% of normal for the date 119% of normal to the north central is 90. in the southern 74. we need an active march to get to 100% or higher to finish the season, which would make for back to back to back 100% or higher years. that has not happened since the early 80s. the city had rained two days ago. i don't think they're getting any more the rest of february, but they've had 6.68 so far for this month. the average is 4.90, so they did well there. there are a few hints around the second, third, fourth. maybe rain will return. there's some hints of that, but until then i think it's just a lot of high clouds and not much else. and mild temps, 30s, 40s and 50s. a little bit of a north northeast breeze in the hills. it's going to make for a mild day around oakland. berkeley 19 2219 2022. south lake tahoe to 42 in arcata and 55 in san diego. a lot of cloud cover is on the way, but not much else.

unless you're well, north, that's where the rain will be. it will stay well to the north. there will be a lot. pacific northwest, northern mendocino county, up to del norte, humboldt, trinity county, but not here. a lot of cloud cover, though, will take us into at least sunday. monday could get some mid 70s on tuesday if that cloud cover clears out, but stepping out where it will be nice today. mostly sunny, only a few high clouds. most of those are already clearing out 60s to near 70. >> steve thank you. in the south bay valley water says the first phase of the coyote creek flood protection project in san jose is almost complete to the relief of many residents. in this comes nearly eight years to the day after a flood, a large flood in 2017. and that is when the anderson reservoir overflowed into the creek. officials say more than 80 500ft of flood walls will prevent future floods along a four mile stretch between old oakland road and interstate 280. >> in this specific area, the water would be up, but in the residences around the area, you wouldn't have any flooding. so basically, if this project was

here, then you wouldn't have seen the impacts that you saw, at least in this area. >> the second phase of the project is scheduled to begin next year. it will support a larger outlet tunnel upstream at anderson reservoir, which will allow water flow control during big storms. >> coming up, we'll give you a live look here at the south bay, where the future of driving is on display under one roof. why? some of the cars at the silicon valley auto show don't need roads. and what else to expect? we'll give you a preview in just a minute. >> and checking our weekend watch now, there are two events celebrating beer week in the bay area. the festivities get underway at the 21st amendment bar and restaurant in san leandro tonight, with its brew and bites event. then tomorrow there will be a special shuttle in santa rosa, where beer lovers will check out the city's popular breweries. also tomorrow, thousands of people will fill the streets of chinatown in oakland for the third annual lunar

they think the umpire gets a call wrong. manager bob melvin is excited for exhibition play, but skeptical about that new technology. >> i'm going to let it play out to start and then we'll see how it goes. i mean, spring training games, you know, i have no familiarity with it. i look at the walk rates in triple-a and the walk rates at the big leagues. it's a lot different when guys come up and when they go to triple-a, they walk more guys. so i'm sure the system has something to do with that. you know, i haven't been a part of it. i'm going to feel it out first. and if guys are, you know, ridiculous with it, then we'll probably put some parameters on it. but i'm certainly not going to. lamont wade says challenges. i'm not going to have a problem with that. >> melvin says right handed pitcher landon rupe, who's fighting for a spot on the roster, will get tomorrow's start. >> 823 is your time. amazon is expanding nearby and bringing a lot of new jobs with it. >> also, meta's increasing bonuses for executives after cutting thousands of jobs. pam cook looking into this here in dollars and cents. >> certainly interesting story to talk about this. meta has

reportedly authorized bonuses for its executives. that will be about 200% of their base salary. that's up from a typical 75% of their base salary for their bonus. and right after meta announced it is cutting 5% of its workers. meta says it is to stay competitive now, as the opening bell rang this morning, unitedhealth stock dropped about $43 a share on reports of a government investigation of its medicare billing practices. unitedhealth has certainly faced a lot of obstacles recently. you might remember the killing of unitedhealth ceo, the shooting death and an expensive cyber attack against its subsidiary. also talking about medical costs. unitedhealth putting pressure on the dow as we take a live look at the markets. also this morning, the consumer sentiment report, michigan's consumer sentiment report came in for january. it is down 10%. consumers not feeling very great about the economy. that's helping take the dow down 350

education opportunities through their career choice program, which actually will give get people a college degree, a bachelor's degree while they're working there. >> stockton already has one warehouse, and at least 100 people have already been hired to work at the two the new warehouses. the new facilities are set to open this spring. and the silicon valley auto show kicks off today. we want to take you there live to see some of the cool cars in action. this is at the santa clara convention center. our photographer, greg brunzell getting down there to check in on the car. some of the newest developments in the auto industry, some of the new technology, 3d surround views, augmented reality, car personalization that looks a bit like a spaceship. i know they're talking about that's the flying car. okay. it looks like it's going to fly. i don't know where the wings are coming from, but that is going to be a flying

tunnel, is going to equal some warm temps for some for this time of year. stepping out weather. it will be mostly sunny and temperatures in the 60s to maybe a few near 70 degrees. all right, south here. i know it's a celebration at the bay bridge. what about elsewhere? >> oh, it looks pretty good everywhere. steve, i would say that this commute is doing very well. and right now you can see this is representing what most of the commute is doing. you can see right now traffic is improving in oakland. we had an earlier problem. so i don't want you to feel misled. it's not completely light in oakland, but it's much better than usual. and 580 is a good alternate route. 832 let's go back to the desk. >> happening soon, san francisco's bob's donuts will open a new location. it's right down the block from the original that's been serving people around the clock since the 60s. >> so ktvu resident donut aficionado jesse gary live outside that new location with more on today's celebration. that's a long line, but i hope you get to jump the line. jesse.

>> the old digs are larger and a lot of customers sit down and enjoy their purchases, last minute purchases to get the shop ready or completed. and now all that's left to do is cut the ribbon, which is slated to take place in about 90 minutes. as i continue eating now, they're going to have. this is just this is sinful. you should i should i have to put this down. you're going to have a donut eating contest at 11 and at three this afternoon i have with the giant donuts. i don't see the giant donuts, but you have to eat it in three minutes. so. and if you do that, you get a $50 gift certificate. and they're also going to have free samples, free samples. but otherwise you have to come in and buy. it's just yummy. so while i do this chip you just walk around and show the donuts. i'm just going to

today, the santa rosa school board will meet for a final vote to decide the fate of the district's middle and high schools. after santa rosa city school trustees failed to reach an agreement on middle and high schools during their meeting wednesday night, the board finalized closures for elementary schools in the city. board members must now make more tough decisions today due to the district's multi-million dollar budget deficit. >> it is heart wrenching. no one, no educator, no superintendent, no position, no board member signs up to serve to close schools. >> the board has already decided to close santa rosa's, brook hill and albert elementary schools by june of this year. steele lane elementary is closing in june of next year. >> 836 is your time. happening today, federal oversight is coming to california's beleaguered high speed rail project. this after the trump appointed, appointed transportation secretary, said the project is severely off track. the president wants a compliance review of the high speed rail project, with a distinct likelihood of cutting off federal funding. >> i think the transportation

here is amazing, and i think that to cut that is honestly insane. the people here really depend on that. that transportation, of course, and him just cutting unnecessary things is just his dictatorship in my opinion. >> president trump says it's the worst managed project he's ever seen. transportation secretary sean duffy says it's a waste of taxpayers money. >> the project is not going to happen. there is no there is no timeline in which you're going to have a high speed rail that goes from la to san francisco. that timeline does not exist, and the estimates are incredibly rough on the dollar front. >> of course, he's going to deny it because california. but it's just like, you know, i think it's needed. i think we need it. you know. >> so even though it's behind schedule and way over budget, you're still say, keep going. >> yeah. >> time now is 837. democratic congressman mark desaulnier held a held a town hall meeting in moraga focused on president

trump's first month in office. the town hall was at saint mary's college, brought hundreds of people from california's 10th congressional district. desaulnier answered questions that were submitted ahead of time from the audience. >> we have over 300,000 missing migrant children. that's concerning. he didn't mention anything about that. he just went on about fighting trump rather than working with them. >> these are not normal times that we are staring down the barrel of our constitution being destroyed. >> so desaulnier also talked about plans by democrats to oppose the trump administration's plan to shut down the department of education and withdraw from the paris climate agreement. 838 here are three bay area federal government buildings are reportedly on a list of assets that might be sold by the government. according to the chronicle, the nancy pelosi federal building at seventh and mission is on a list of non-core assets, along with the federal office building at 50 un plaza. the leo ryan federal building in san bruno is also said to be on the list. the general services administration and the department of government efficiency have announced a plan to cut the amount of federal office space in half.

>> 838 now, former house speaker nancy pelosi joined community leaders for a roundtable discussion on how the republican led budget could hurt san francisco residents. the meeting was held in the sf marin food bank in potrero hill. pelosi said the republican proposal to cut medicaid threatens health care for about 100,000 people in san francisco, including about 20,000 children. but the congresswoman says this proposal affects more than just low income families. >> medicaid is viewed as a poor children initiative, and it is. and that's enough justification. but it's a middle class benefit as well, because middle class families across america use medicaid funds. a great deal of medicaid funds are used for. >> pelosi also criticized the proposal to give $4 trillion in tax breaks to big corporations. >> since the covid pandemic, the number of students from china studying in the u.s. has dropped. research shows rising tuition costs and growing

propaganda from both the u.s. government and chinese government is to blame. the u.s. relationship with china was already strained during the obama administration, and only worsened during president trump's first term. while the biden administration stopped a program investigating alleged threats of espionage called the china initiative, tensions remained. for california, the highest number of international students come from china. >> our time now is 845. is back up with us on this friday with more. >> yes, sir. we'll take a look at the february totals up in the mountains. because remember january there? they couldn't get an inch of snow. we didn't have much rain either. but february has been kind. palisades, sugar bowl, boreal, sierra, snow lab at soda springs, northstar, kirkwood, bear valley, and heavenly 50 to 96in of snow just this month. that puts the percent of average to the date at 94%, 119 northern, 90% central and 74 southern. we need a good march to get over 100% and stick and stay there if we do. that would make back to back

to back years above 100%. i don't think that's happened since the early 80s. san francisco so far this month 6.68. the average is 4.90. what makes it more impressive is there's don't think there's any more rain the rest of the month. so that was a lot of rain for about the first 18 days or so. hints around the second, third and fourth still ten days away. so i think we're done with february rain, but thankfully the first two weeks were really good. a lot of cloud cover in the morning, but most of that is cleared out. there will be a mix of sun and high clouds 30, 40 and 50 this morning, but some a lot more 50, especially around oakland, berkeley, emeryville, el cerrito because there's an east northeast breeze coming in off the hills. 1922, well, 19 at truckee and 22 at south lake tahoe. a lot of cloud cover will be visiting on the weekend. it's all show, not much go, but it's still going to keep. i think our temps down a wee bit there, especially sunday into monday. once that clears, which should be monday night, tuesday could be around 7475, maybe into wednesday before more cloud cover rolls in here, but it will

still be okay this weekend. stepping out with a mix of sun and clouds. more sun today. more clouds over the weekend, 60s to near 70 degrees, you guys. >> all right steve, thank you so much. a growing movement to make rock climbing more inclusive. the oakland based group creating experiences for the bay area's bl k co

of our top stories this morning. senate republicans have taken a big step in advancing president trump's agenda. they passed a $340 billion budget framework early today. it mainly focuses on funding for mass deportations and border security. a series of amendment votes required the chamber to pull an all nighter. all democrats oppose the resolution. they also brought up concerns of other funding. other federal funding cuts. as doge continues to target more departments to online platforms widely used by children are being sued in san mateo county. lawsuit involves a 13 year old boy who says he was taken advantage of by a man pretending to be a teenager. the lawsuit says the man posed as a 16 year old on the online game in messaging platforms roblox and discord to groom the 13 year old. the suit also says he paid the boy for explicit photos and videos. in a statement, roblox said it takes the safety of its community very seriously and said the company is constantly launching new safety features.

discord has yet to respond or acknowledge the suit publicly. >> all right, it's 845 and we're switching gears. west oakland has three rock climbing gyms, and now one rock climbing group based in oakland is working to make the sport more inclusive. in 2021, the black rock collective was formed so black climbers can build community in a historically white dominated sport. we have philip lang and lena brown live in studio with why they're dedicated to making these spaces feel more supportive and welcoming. gentlemen, thank you so much for joining us today. we're just talking about earlier. i know the demographics are pretty jarring here. some people might know it, but there's 77.7 million participants in the american alpine club. 80% are white among non members. the report found that aapi members made up 7%, hispanic members made up 5%, black and native americans 1% each in the rock climbing sport. it's something i never noticed before. tell us a bit about that. >> well, being, you know, being in the sport, being in the bay

area, you can you can walk into the gym and kind of see the disparity. you know, there's a few factors, whether it be, you know, proximity, you know, or whether just representation, seeing people or a thing that gets people in the rock climbing is having a friend or knowing somebody. right? you know, so we're trying to build up the infrastructure and get more of our people out there. >> so, you know, you might not even think about rock climbing, you know, as as we just heard phillip say, because you don't have anyone in it that, you know, so tell us about that, that as being one of the barriers to getting into it. >> rock climbing is very mentorship based. and so it's a lot of learning, i think, from other people and kind of passed down. and so it really, you know, requires, i think in some ways that community and those open doors in order to start building and having more and more people come out. >> so would you would you say you all are introducing a lot of black minority people into into rock climbing? and what are they saying about it when, when they discover this, this sport? >> oh, absolutely. you know, we have folks coming from all skill

levels from, you know, seasoned veterans to people who are just now getting in and they're taking on to it like fish on water. you know, i just got my nephew into it. a couple of my friends are getting into it, and we're building up something that when we go in the gym now, we see our friends, we see people that look like us. and when we see them, we even if we don't know them, we talk to them. how are you doing? you know, make sure that we're, you know, building this community, you know, in oakland specifically, you know, we're reclaiming our grounds, our, you know, our home. >> yeah. so now that this is off the ground and you're getting so many people involved here, what is the reaction that you're getting from, from folks now in terms of, of, of pursuing this as something that they really want to get into full time? >> yeah. so we've received, i think, a lot of feedback of just like i think the courage of taking on something new and finding a safe space and community within which to do that kind of something that maybe was not even in the realm of possibility or something somebody had seen for themselves, but offering them a

new opportunity to try something new is just it's beautiful. >> and when they see that, they oh, wow, this is something brand. i mean, i think to many people it's just a brand new thing. was just never in your sphere of something that you wanted to do. but when that hits them and you see the look on their faces, describe that to me there. >> i mean, there's just a joy, you know, there's like a childlike wonder and just, there's because there's its own technique and there's, you know, all the all the ways to get better and better. and so i think experiencing that and noticing all the different muscle movements, it's such it's such compound movements and climbing. >> let me talk about that to learn more about it because i don't know much about it. so philip, tell me, what is rock climbing for those who don't know about it? >> so rock climbing okay, we do it mainly. we host mainly indoor. so there's different, you know, different types. there's indoor rock climbing, outdoor which you mainly would think of. you know, there's bouldering which requires no ropes. you're climbing walls 15, 20ft high. >> but you don't have any ropes. >> no ropes. there's pads, you know, crash pads, what they call the pads that you bring mobile pads to bring them out. and

there's top roping with ropes. you're climbing 75, 100ft, you know, so there's a couple of different styles. >> all right. so talk to me about the, the not only the styles but the, the safety issue of it. when you, when you think about a sport like this, is it really i mean, obviously it is dangerous, but is it as scary as it might seem, which might have people not even look at this as something that they want to do? >> yeah. i mean, you know, fear is, is one side. and then i think safety is in some ways another. you know, a lot of climbing is about redundancies. and so there are many different ways that we have redundant safety measures in place. so even god forbid, if one thing fails, there's still 2 or 3 other things that will that will catch. >> what is the appeal of this sport in terms of is it strength training muscles different working different muscles in the body? what is that part of it? >> so i can speak specifically to me. it's like a mental puzzle, you know, when it comes to working out, i can't do the,

you know, redundant lifting weights or running track. it's very boring to me. just quite frankly, rock climbing is like a puzzle that you're using your body, you're using your mind to figure it out. and it's, you know, it's kind of addicting. >> do you have to. >> have it can be addicting. >> do you have to have any other previous like, you know, workouts, you know, do you have to be a lifter or something or a runner or anything besides this? or can you get into it cold and. know where. >> you go? yeah. one another beautiful thing is that many bodies can like everyone climbs differently. and so there's, there's many different ways to the top literally. and so you can come in with any experience or no experience at all and find the way that your body likes to climb. >> and tell us about the event that you guys have coming up this saturday. >> absolutely. we're pairing with our brother, organization and nature nine. we're doing an after hours climb at pac pipe that's in west oakland. 2140 mandela parkway, right on west grand in mandela. and we're doing an after hours climb.

we're doing raffles games. we're also premiering a documentary that i was a part of with some of our folks from blackrock, some folks from marin, just talking about getting black folks into the sport. they went out with us to ice climb. that's another thing we do. ice colorado. yes, yes, yes, sir. you know, we you know, we do more than. >> more than just rock climbing. wow, gentlemen. and that happens this weekend. how do people find out more about. >> it this weekend? you can look on our instagram black rock collective or ning's page negus in nature. that'll be from 5 to 7 as part of the black joy experience. >> black brown, black joy this weekend. a lot of people can be out there. all right, philip lang and leanne brown, thank you all so much for joining us and providing insight into a sport many people may not have thought about as something to get into, so we appreciate it. >> yeah. we're going to climb this morning. come with us. >> yeah. let's go. i'm working. yeah. >> you can do it. andre. yeah. anybody in the newsroom? andre

is the one who could do it. gentlemen. thank you. several people joined. >> an interfaith vigil. >> in. >> oakland in support of immigrant communities amid ongoing deportation threats. people gathered at fruitvale village plaza and marched to saint anthony's church for the vigil. religious leaders expressed their support for immigrants and stressed the need for the community to protect them. >> we are seeing especially with what's happening in new york, we're seeing that the federal government is counting on cities and local authorities to help them with deportations, and we want our elected leaders here in oakland and in the east bay to stand up to that and to resist. >> there's another interfaith vigil scheduled for tonight at 530 at saint mark's catholic church gym in richmond. state regulators have given two major insurers approval to raise rates. mercury general will begin raising rates for homeowners late next month by an average of 12%. liberty mutual will begin raising its home insurance rates by an average of more than 7% in may. mercury says the increase is not related

to the recent southern california wildfires. the requests were filed with state regulators back in june to help offset the increasing cost of home repairs, construction, labor and building materials. >> time now is 853 and the traffic is doing very well today. we do have traffic that is moving along okay at the bay bridge. still a little bit slow on interstate 880 northbound because of earlier issues. i think 580 is the best bet there. and even highway four has cleared out along with 680. so things are beginning to get much better. mornings on two will for all those making it big out there... ...shouldn't your mobile service be able to keep up with you? get wifi speeds up to a gig at home and on the go. introducing powerboost, only from xfinity mobile. now that's big. xfinity internet customers, cut your mobile bill in half

with a green card could be at risk. in one tiktok video with almost 3 million views, a woman says her niece, a nursing student with a green card, was deported upon returning to lax from laos. the woman says customs workers took her niece to a room where she was told people who leave the u.s. after having a green card for less than two years cannot get back into the country. they said her green card would be taken away. >> that's unlawful. they can't do that. they can be interrogated alone without the assistance of counsel because of sometimes misinformation or desperation. they unknowingly sign away their rights, and that results in the abandonment of resident status. >> the attorney explains that people with green cards are allowed to travel out of the country for 180 days when they return. some people are pressured into signing documents to give up their lawful permanent resident status. attorneys say customs workers are only allowed to ask questions about a person's

identity, or ask a person to show their permanent resident status. >> 858 your time california may soon strengthen its status as a safe haven for the transgender community. state senator scott wiener just introduced a new bill to block law enforcement from getting access to transgender patients medical records without a warrant. it would also make sharing that private information a crime. wiener says the bill is a direct response to president trump's moves to limit transgender rights, including a recent executive order that rolls back legal recognition. the bill is backed by groups like planned parenthood and equality california, and now heads to the state legislature. >> a new watchdog report finds the city of oakland has been paying employees excessive overtime for the past several years. the city auditor examined overtime payments between january of 2018 and may of 2024. it found oakland paid more than 500 city workers, more than $1.6 million in overtime. the auditor determined that oakland was not using a method specified by federal law in calculating

overtime. plans to erect a 45 foot tall woman's sculpture in union square have been canceled. the artwork debuted in 2015 at the burning man festival. it weighs more than 16,000 pounds. organizers say the sculpture had been scheduled to be unveiled two weeks ago. according to the chronicle, here, engineering issues made placement of the massive steel artwork unfeasible. happening today, a man arrested for a hit and run crash that killed a former uc berkeley professor will make his first court appearance. retired sociology professor michael burrow was hit while crossing grand avenue in oakland last month. >> he was. >> targeted by a predator who befriended him, and he thought he was dealing with another teenager. >> a teen targeted by an online predator through a popular gaming platform. the lawsuit that could have big implications for two bay area companies. >> plus, helping to make sure the water flowing at schools across oakland is safe
