brown: a brave, brave man.ince i have talked about tunnels and transportation, i will bring up one more item of infrastructure: high-speed rail. [cheering and applause] gov. brown: i make no bones about it. i like trains and i like high-speed trains even better. [laughter] gov. brown: so did the voters in 2008 when they approved the bond. look, 11 other countries have high-speed trains. they are now taken for granted all over europe, in japan and in china. president reagan himself said in japan on november 11, 1983: "the state of california is planning to build a rapid speed train that is adapted from your highly successful bullet train." yes, we were, and now we are actually building it. takes a long time. [applause] gov. brown: like any big project, there are obstacles. there were for the bay area rapid transit system, for the golden gate bridge and for the panama canal. but build it they did and build it we will -- america's first high-speed rail system. one link between san jose and san francisco -- an elec

he went looking for john brown.e went looking for help and he got john brown, who helped the daniels and others escape. john brown is not a free state or. he is the real deal. he is an abolitionist. much more typical is someone like a former democrat from indiana who migrated to kansas and became a free state leader along with charles robinson. lane was a racist to begin with. he made sure the free state government adopted indiana's black laws, discriminatory laws. , he returnedghting a missouri slave to his owner. lane goes on to become the first person to recruit black soldiers in the civil war. .e becomes an abolitionist he says later that it was in kansas that he learned that slavery was the root problem. i have spent my career arguing that jim lane and charles and sara robinson are the real territorial kansans, the real free stators. llie is going to spend her life arguing about john brown, and we are going to lose. john brown is the figure everyone knows about when it comes to bleeding kansas. he was a crucial

>> brown: but social media can also bite back. kaur's poems have been the subject of frequent parody online. while some have questioned its merits. and the title of "instagram poet," she says, comes with baggage. >> to be completely honest, i'm not okay with it. a lot of the readers are young women who are experiencing really real things, and they're not able to talk about it with maybe family or other friends, and so they go to this type of poetry to sort of feel understood and to have these conversations. and so when you use that term, you invalidate this space that they use to heal and to feel closer to one another, and i think that's when it becomes unfair. >> brown: does it hurt you when you're being, when your poetry is being critiqued as more therapeutic or more emotional rather than poetry? >> no, not really, and it's because i never really intended to get into the literary world. this is actually not for you. this is for that 17-year-old brown woman in brampton who is not even thinking about that space, who is just trying

diane feinstein, jerry brown, now gavin newsom. what does that say about how politics in california has changed? >> there's more money up here, and there's more voters up here. >> actual voters. >> people who turn out and cast ballots. >> so it's not a huge surprise. and there's a level of insurgency for southern california that they wanted some of that back. i know a lot of people who are not fans of gavin newsom that would still support him because he is northern california and he will bring the bacon back to northern california opposed to southern california. >> just about a minute left, but we talked to the governor in his office a couple of weeks ago, and he was talking about making ol hiv oive oil on the ranch. but criminal justice is also going to be a big part of his legacy. >> yeah, part of his speech yesterday was pleading with lawmakers that i know realignment has been tough, but don't roll it back. bail reform, does the governor back that and do they find the money? >> and the gas tax repeal, he's promising to fight tha

governor jerry brown deliver his last state of the state address today. reflect on how the state has changed since his first term as governor in 1975. he also defended two projects he wasn't able to see accomplished while in office. the state's high-speed rail project, and a plan to create a massive underground water tunnel to channel water from the delta to southern california. >>> also we are still seeing scattered showers out there with rain and even some hail coming down from that storm that rolled through yesterday. this is what it looked like earlier today in petaluma where a viewer tweeted this video of a hailstorm at noon today. we also saw some hail right here outside our studios in jack london square in oakland. >>> president trump is expected to outline a new immigration plan on monday. it would provide a path to citizenship for 1.8 million young people who were brought to the united states illegally as children. the plan also includes tighter restrictions on legal immigration and $25 billion for border security. >>> you're watching ktvu fox 2

jeffrey brown has a look behind the movie and the events of that era. >> brown: june, 1971. >> o youe the papers? >> not yet. >> brown: but he soon would. the "papers" were the pentagon papers, a classified history of the vietnam war created by the defense department. in the film, "the post," "washington post" editor ben bradlee, played by tom hanks, and publisher katherine graham, meryl streep, must obtain the papers and then decide whether to defy a court order and publish them. the all-star project, directed by steven spielberg, takes on big and consequential history, and issues of press freedom and national security that resonate to today. but liz hannah, the screenwriter, later joined by josh singer, says her focus was on a smaller, individual story, about katherine graham, the high-society woman thrust into leadership of her family-owned paper, finding her way in a male-dominated world. >> this is the first fortune 500 c.e.o. who is a woman, and she had been told her whole life that she wasn't good enough. and then she was put in this position where she had to make this choice

here is jeffrey brown to help piece together what we know now. >> brown: the attorney general is the first trump cabinet member to sit down with robert mueller's team. we also learned today that former f.b.i. director james comey was questioned by the special counsel's office last year. the "new york times" reported that this afternoon. and, washington investigations editor mark mazzetti joins me now. so mark, we have attorney general sessions last week. we have james comey last year. what does this tell us, if anything, about the state of the probe? >> well, it certainly says that mueller's team is looking pretty closely at this question of obstruction of justice. did president trump since he took office try to impede the ongoing f.b.i. investigation into russia and later the investigation taken over by mueller? did he try to impede it with regards to michael flynn? did he try to impede it when he fired james comey? and so sessions and, of course comey himself, would be critical witnesses to try to answer these questions. but it's not just the obstruction issue. recall that sessions

this was governor brown's 16th and final state of the state address. we brought it to you live this morning on the abc7 news app and abc7news.com. governor brown received a round of applause just over an hour ago when he walked into the state assembly chamber. there were words from several state leaders and then governor brown took the stage and said, quote, simply put, california is prospering. a notable moment in his speech is also when the room erupted in applause as governor brown thanked our state's firefighters following devastating wildfires here in the bay area and in southern california last year. >> these brave men and women answered the call to help their fellow neighbors. in some cases, even when their own homes were burning. here we see an example of people working together, irrespective of party. >> the governor went on to defend the highly controversial high-speed rail project. he also talked about jobs in the golden state, saying infrastructure projects will be the key of well-paid jobs here in the bay area in the future. three men hopi

it's a safe prediction, too. >> brown: yeah.tices kennedy and breyer, for example, they spoke to the concern that states have about maintaining the integrity of voter registration roles. that is something that states have to do. justice breyer said, for example, if you can't use the fact that a voter hasn't voted in two years to send out thesenotes, what can you do? >> brown: they're in essence supporting the ohio -- >> well, sound as if they're raising one of the major concerns here of ohio. and mr. smith said ohio is really only one of eight states that uses the process it uses. it's the most aggressive. trr other ways. i learned through this case that there is a national change of address database that keeps track of changes of address that are sent to postal offices. and he said states can compare their registration addresses with that database. so there was this concern about how can states maintain integrity. >> brown: and where did the challengers get their support from? >> justices sota my yore and kagan, justice sotomay

what anthony brown said i want you to understand the difference. it is 1.5 this year, but you have to pay interest on what you borrow. and therefore that's where congressman brown gets the $2.2 trillion. but, contrary to what president trump said and the the secretary of treasury said, there would be no tax cuts for those like mr. trump, in fact, trump and his family are huge beneficiaries of this tax cut. next. >> i'm just so glad to have you here. i'm mayor robinson of the town of north brentwood. i did read the letter sent to governor hogan, and i just want to know, i like some of the suggestions on trying to mitigate this. i wanted to know from you how long are we going to wait for a response from governor hogan? and, what can local government, what can we do as mayors to put something on the table to stop this foolishness. this is craziness. it just does not work. everybody here has children and grandchildren. this is, i can't see my children living like this to pay off of a debt. that is my two questions. >> so i don't think it would be prude

"the wall street journal" saw "the great california exodus." the economist of london pronounced us "the ungovernable state." and the business insider simply said "california is doomed." even today, you will find cr
