grant the gag order? >> i think again, she probably is very mindful, alex, of the possible reversal on appeal. once that bend over backwards to give the defendant in this case, the former president, and the current candidate all of the potential freedom and license that she can. i think that she is probably wisely seeing this is a side issue. that she does not want to deal with. so i think it is unlikely that she grants a gag order and if she does it will be very circumscribed and limited and allow him to continue to speak publicly about other things. but i keep saying this. i just think all of this is going to make her extremely impatient and the ultimate remedy is the faster this is -- the faster it minimizes the damage. >> so given how much time you think trump can buy with these motions that lead to trial delays? and the fact that the d.c. court has been immersed in capital riot related trials. will that play any role in how quickly these motions are handled? >> i think he's gonna present some novel emotions that have not been presented in the other january 6th cases. judge chutkan establi

alex savage and i'm heather holmes. there are also new calls for transparency and accountability after this mistake. after oakland failed to meet the deadline for that state grant to battle retail theft. ktvu brooks jarocz has been following this story throughout the day. he joins us now live from the newsroom. and brooks, you have found that crime is up in pretty much every part of the city. yeah, rings, home invasions, business break ins. we report them nearly every single day. so i did some digging to find oakland police department data on where we are now this year compared this time last year taking into account january through july. let's look at the numbers.bberies are up 24. burglaries have increased 43. car theft significantly increased 54. and if you factor in all crimes, including violent crime, while oakland has seen a nearly 30% spike, so all this state grant money could have been used to fund things like cameras, license plate readers, additional staffing or special operations to target organized crime in comparison, san francisco, they got $17 million and is using a big chunk of that money to stop catalytic converter theft. yeah a lot of municipa

alex padilla and stockton representative josh harter introduced legislation today. they say would make all farm workers eligible for mental health services is through the farm and ranch stress assistance network. it would also permit grants for those services. this comes nearly eight months after seven halfmoon bay farm workers were killed in a mass shooting earlier in the year. big changes are brewing when it comes to property insurance pricing here in california today, the state's insurance commissioner says his office is writing new rules to let insurers look to the future. when setting rates. this is in hopes of stopping insurance companies from leaving our wildfire prone state right now in california, insurers can only consider what's happened in the past to a property to set the price. that means they can't factor in wildfire mitigation efforts such as building defensible space and putting power lines underground. and we're going to be able to hone in on those properties that have done the mitigation and make sure that our rate analysts look at that in appropriate price. the risk for that individual, especially if they've done the hardening. so it's a tool that we need in the department as well. today, governor new
