there's no words i can explain how i feel about this. >> reporter: duffy is a wife, mother of two and now only the fourth active female in this position. >> it's been a struggle, but it's nothing that i wanted to give up that easy. i just want to push forward and make it happen. >> reporter: but in 2011 duffy contemplated quitting finding it hard to balance family and career. chief warrant officer beth slade, a surfman herself, helped reassure her. >> when you come in just being you and you build that comradery with your crew, they're going to take care of you and see you succeed. she just came in and said there's no barriers here and showed that she is just as capable. >> reporter: as a surfman, duffy is now qualified to take a 47-foot motor lifeboat out in 20-foot breaking surf with 30- foot seas and 50 knot winds. >> it's very demanding, but it's not anything that's impossible obviously. there's again other people that have done it before me. so i'm so grateful to have completed this process. >> reporter: duffy said she doesn't consider herself a role model but is looking forward t

joe duffy, dbi. the only san francisco building code chapter 33 does talk a little bit about site work and dust control and just being a good contractor, basically, keeping the area clean. it's the code section, which they have to meet, any way, so i don't know if we can add anything to that. but certainly, when we get these type of complaints, we're out there right away, and we're dealing with it usually the same day. in my experience, this is one of my districts, so i don't mind sharing my card with anybody that wants it, and if they see anything, e-mail me, and i'll be right there. don't know if that helps. >> well, there's some standard ways. they have to water when they demo, you know, the debris. >> and there's some areas of the city, hunters point -- it's just general good construction practices to water down and do the normal processes, and i have to say most of the contractors do. >> most of them cleanup in front of their lots on a daily basis. >> will witell, the alternativ they calling the

first. >> joe duffy, dbi. i did meet with the project architect at dbi last week, and we did discuss the project more, and i pointed out some of the concerns that i had from the last hearing, and we -- he was in agreement with a lot of the items, and we have come up now with a new project description which i think will fit better than what we had before. and the plans do reflect the fourth floor level as an existing attic going to be converted to livable space. and i just, for the record, just readout the project description. remodel of single-family residence including new kitchen, plumbing, electrical mechanical and structural work, new work on front an 11 copies tonight, so he -- or the attorney for the project, so i think he brought 11 copies for you. they weren't submitted. we just mapped them at dbi. >> okay. >> so you might want to hear from the -- >> well, we'll hear from both parties. >> should we here from teague first, if the department is done? nothing? okay. so we can hear, then, from the appellan

. >> christina duffy honored as golden gate coast guard. surf man is the highest rank in the small boat operations. >> it allows duffy to operate a rescue boat in extreme conditions. >> this is absolutely amazing. probably the best day of my coast guard career to earn this pin. i know how much time and dedication, not just to me but everybody that has helped me in this journey. >> the coast guard shared this video of duffy in action. the rank qualifies her to take a 47 foot motor lifeboa into 20 foot breaking surf with 30 foot seas and 50 knot winds. >> whoa. a lot of props there. all of them. >>> coming up next on abc7 news at 6:00, live team coverage from yountville with the latest on today's shooting that turned into a hostage situation. a press conference is scheduled to start in just minutes. we'll carry it live. >>> plus, why republicans on the attack that could turn into an advantage for democrats heading into the midterm elections. >>> encouragement when it comes to i need my blood sugar to stay in control. weekends are my time. i n

let's start with you congressman duf duffy. this nra boycott seems to miss the point of the red flags missed by the authorities and all the other factors that come into play. you say? >> there's a whole bunch of things we should look at. let's look at what failings happened within local law enforcement, failings of fbi, the failings of the school that failed to protect these kids from nikolas cruz coming in and shooting them up. what you see happening across america is you have left-leaning media companies putting incredible pressure on companies to buy in to the liberal agenda. these companies forget, though they might be headquartered in new york, california, or chicago, they try to hock their wares all across middle america. and i think though we might not sign petitions online to boycott, we might not come to rallies, you'll see americans offended by what these companies are doing. i'm going to spend my money with companies that support my values. and i think you're going to see that affect the bottom line of companies all

duffy. so judging from the appellant's questions now, is -- his real concern is a violation which may occur not with the construction of the ladder, which you are affirming is -- would be legal construction according to statute, but rather a violation that would happen post construction after a -- a fully legal ladder is put in, which would be a different discussion from what we are evaluating tonight. for his information, and for mine, as well, would you tell us if theat were to occur, if there was a violation and an egress was blocked, a fire egress was blocked, where should that complaint or notice of violation or complaint go to so there is a notice of violation given to a building owner? >> well, you would have several options there. you could call the building inspection, and a building inspector would go out. housing inspection would even go out. there's tenants in the building, and also, the fire department because of the commercial occupancy on the ground floor. i assume it's an "a"

congressman duffy, reflecting on that for a moment. setting aside whether donald trump being involved and hillary being involved. we as americans have to have faith in our government, especially with a strong potentially devastating effects of a prosecution and an investigation and surveillance of american citizens that our investigative bodies are operating with complete and unquestionable integrity. we will say that's not fair. we won't take to heart their ultimate conclusions. i hope sarah is right. this is the beginning i hope of a cleaning out of this underbrush at fbi and maybe beyond. we need it badly. >> you're absolutely right. we give incredible power to the doj and the fbi, special tools to keep us safe from terrorists and bad actors. we expect them to care with great emotion. so i look at what has happened at the fbi. they haven't met that responsibility with the tools that we've given them. either we take them away and the country is less safe or they use the tools more effectively moving forward. what will happen moving f

. >> inspector duffy? >> commissioners, joe duffy, dbi. on the permit that's under suspension, it was to correct a notice of violation in revision to the earlier permit. we -- i won't readout the full description. permit was reviewed by planning and voting, mechanical plan check, went through puc. it -- it -- we had a notice of violation on the property. the first set of drawings that was issued on the earlier permit, and that -- around february 2017 misrepresented the ground floor condition, and the dpsh-th-- they ended up exg more and got into trouble with that. our building inspector issued a notice of violation on that. there was a flooding detail on there, but actually, they would have had to excavate really deep. the plans were drawn by a gentleman called ken chan, kenneth chan. so he seems to be not involved, anymore. obviously, we have a new architect. the problem seems to be -- and if i can have the overhead -- let's see here. so just point this out. we had an existing -- there was an existing light well prior to any of the constr

i'm helen duffy a resident of glen mark.e appellant's brief, he provided data on building sizes. he looked at all new and existing residential building in glen park to show the buildings, especially the new homes are large so his home should be large as well. many lots in glen park are standard 2500 square foot park and those are more than double the 849 square foot size of the lot we're talking about tonight. we are not talking about removing a unit from the neighborhood. we're talking about building a unit that fits within the context of the lot. marilyn and ken sent you an e-mail and documents the size of nearby lots and building sizes. th

and we take up the potential of a phase two for tax cuts with congressman sean duffy. our top story, the possible firing of clinton crony andrew mccabe. fox news has learned the negotiations on the former deputy directors fate is being discussed. the drop dead deadline when his $2 million pension would kick in is 12:01 sunday morning. recommendation to fire mccabe came out of the inspector general's report which concluded mccabe was not for ther forth coming investigators and may have deliberately misled them or lied about his role in media leaks. you lying is a fireable offense for junior agents and mccabe would be held to the same standard. >> wiping out a pension is a big deal for someone who spent two decades plus. by all accounts rendering good service to the fbi. the trouble began when he got to the 7th floor and forgot fact that the rules apply to him even though he's at that top executive level. david: joining us ed rollins. now, some folks are arguing that this is a little too large. the guy worked his several decades at the fbi, and denying him a pension at t

i'm helen duffy a resident of glen mark. in the appellant's brief, he provided data on building sizes. he looked at all new and existing residential building in glen park to show the buildings, especially the new homes are large so his home should be large as well. many lots in glen park are standard 2500 square foot park and those are more than double the 849 square foot size of the lot we're talking about tonight. we are not talking about removing a unit from the neighborhood. we're talking about building a unit that fits within the context of the lot. marilyn and ken sent you an e-mail and documents the size of nearby lots and building sizes. the lots and buildings the residential guidelines considered are the first and second-levels of context for this project. this shows us two things. first, that most nearby buildings have less square footage than what is proposed and second, this is true even though all the nearby lots are larger. in other words, the proposed building is larger than others though the lot is far smalle

we want show you petty officer first class christina duffy. is only the fourth woman to become a surf woman. she's now certified to take an almost 50-foot motor lifeboat into high surf for rescues. another officer who was the first woman ever to earn the award presented to to duffy. >> okay, about 35 minutes remaining. at midnight, they're pulling the plug. that popular piece of art in the south bay is about to be turned off. it's called the sonic runway. take a look. pretty cool. went up at san jose city hall in november. outside you can walk right through it. the first exhibit in a partnership between san jose and burning man. the goal is to show people the speed of sound as music plays. the artists both from the east bay say they were honored to have their work displayed by the city. >> every time i come down here, you know, i bring friends, family. we get to hang out. everyone is in the sonic runway enjoying it and to think that they're not going to be able to do that anymore is kind of sad. >> it's cool how it just plays. you see the crow

treasuries how will this deal shake up the markets let us bring in cme chairman and ceo terry duffy ig about that reese 's peanut butter cup commercial where it became a great marriage. talk about the marriage of these two exchanges. >> liz, first of all thank you for having me. liz: sure. >> i'm so thrilled to be on with the top news anchor in business today, liz claman. liz: female. i have to correct you. >> congratulations to all the success you've had there. liz: thank you. >> and when you look at cme, liz , you know the futures world you've been around it for a long time. we deliver value we bring central pulls of liquidity together and this is one of those assets that from my standpoint the next group with their broker tech division and e bs division roughly trades about 90 billion in foreign exchange a day that's about the same thing cme trades and its listed products 90 billion the overall market in fx is $5 trillion so we're a small part of that liz but together on one platform we think we have the ability to grow it and on a broker tech with fixed income you talked about rat

trish: congressman duffy. good to see you. >> you too, trish. trish: president donald trump says north korea appears sincere in its offer to talk about giving up its nuclear weapons but he is not entirely sure. i mean, what do they say, trust by verify? is this president going to be the one that finally reins in this crazy nation and this rogue player? four-star general jack keane weighs in next. prudential asked these couples: how much money do you think you'll need in retirement? then we found out how many years that money would last them. how long do you think we'll keep -- oooooohhh! you stopped! you're gonna leave me back here at year 9? how did this happen? it turned out, a lot of people fell short, of even the average length of retirement. we have to think about not when we expect to live to, but when we could live to. let's plan for income that lasts all our years in retirement. prudential. bring your challenges. afi sure had a lot on my mind. my 30-year marriage... ...my 3-month old business... plus...what if this happened again? i was

trish: this example was actually pointed out to me by sean duffy, congressman duffy, who hails from wisconsin. he said you know, we have harley-davidson in wisconsin. and harley-davidson will have to see up tick what it pays to make its motorcycles but he said what about this? what if suddenly we could go to india and renegotiate our trade agreement with india? right now there is 100% tariff on all motorcycles going into india. they cost twice as much as they should? if we say to india, that is not going it fly, all of sudden maybe that starts to offset increase costs? >> i'm all for that. i'm all for changing bilateral agreements that are fair, okay, trade agreements for the u.s. no one is disagreeing with that. trish: okay. >> i'm 100% supporter of that. where i'm not supportive where we make this mass case, okay. then all of a sudden they have these unintended consequence. take harley-davidson. the first thing that happened, the first 24 hours, the uk may start taxing on just harley-davidson and bourbon and whiskey, other things, levi, all of sudden you're picking winners and losers. you'r

joe duffy, d.b.i. the building permit under appeal addition of two units on the first floor per ordinance 3-15 seismic application is referenced on a 2015 permit. the permit was reviewed by housing inspection services, building inspection, city planning as you heard, building department plan check, and also went through mechanical plan check, fire department, d.p.w., and our central permit. it was filed on the 11th of january, 2016, issued on the 11th of january 2018. and suspended on the 19th of january. the only issues that i felt was brought up that had a building department issue and if i can get the overhead please. put that up a little bit. so on grid line four, on the plans, and grid line six, if you see the existing first floor plan, we have a solid wall going on totally along grid line four. and along grid line six. and on the new floor plan, we have windows now installed and doorways and one doorway, window, and window, and a door. and then on this side on the back here there are two windows

duffy. kwu read the description of the work to be performed, it specifically says add a roof deck. so it's almost like checking that other box is redundant. >> it should have been checked any way, yes or no. >> but if there were concerns about a roof deck, it's there in the permit. >> oh, yes, yes, yes, of course. it's additional information. it helps determine -- and mr. boskovich is right. it helps our staff determine is it right issue, is it not? we don't issue notification unless there's structural addition, vertical addition. a roof deck wouldn't be considered a vertical addition. >> okay. is there any further comment? okay. seeing no comment, but i don't know that you're waiting back dwsh- >> no, if there's an existing nov. >> okay. we'll take comments. >> comments, commissioners. >> i think the permit was issued appropriately and legally and so i'm -- >> i do, too, and if there's a disclosure issue, the previous seller probably had the obligation to disclose that information had been given to him. >> the threshold is did the city cause -- >> no, i don't think so either. >> t

duffy to throw that out there. this election is for who's fighting for the american people. who's fighting to protect the middle class and create good paying jobs and not fighting for the special interests, very powerful, top 1%. we've seen them in their efforts to undermine social security and medicare. this will be decided by what people say who's fighting for my family's life. that's the democrats. >> to my question, i'm looking for you to answer. i'm going to say you give it a five. that is safe. that's a maybe. let's start with maybe. >> maybe. that's right. depending on what the evidence produces, it's absolutely a maybe. >> okay. david ciccilie, good to see you. >>> joining me now, caitlyn burns. na eesh shah ras could he. ladies, good morning to you here. i want to start with the president's latest tweets. trump calling out mueller by name and going after his team. what do you think is behind this, caitlyn? >> well, the president has been active, as we know, in trying to undermine this investigation. the fact that he used mueller's name, which i don't believe he has

congressman john duffy is a republican who represents wisconsin.ongressman jodey arrington is a republican representing texas. congressman arrington, to you first. if we are honest for a second, how would you have responded if president obama said we will take the guns and deal with the due process question? >> i think more than disconcerting would be an understatement. we are talking about our god given fundamental right to protect ourselves, not just against bad people, but against bad governments. that is the context. look, you might send a lot of things this president has done right. america first. he is strong on border security, strong on defense. he's put a constitutionalist in the supreme court and he sent a great job in that regard. but this one, he is going down the slippery slope, the knee-jerk reaction that we are accustomed to when you have these mass shootings. i would oppose president obama and i would oppose president trump and any president that negotiates away what is a fundamental right and quite frankly, it's a right that if it

duffy. >> commissioners, the matter's submitted. >> i have a question for the permit holder. it's not totally clear in my mind what you're requesting with the roof deck. are you asking that the roof deck be in the front only if there's a fourth floor allowed? >> that would be my request because one of the conditions of approval was that with the elimination of the fourth floor, that the roof terrace or roof deck be split towards the center of the property, with i is towar -- which is towards the east, so there are therefofore, you it floating over the roof on the third story. so in restoring the fourth floor, i am requesting that that additional condition be modified so that the terrace would therefore be at the front because that's a required open space. >> thank you. >> i -- i like what the planning department did, and -- >> planning commission or planning department? >> the planning commission, and so that's where i stand. i respect -- >> let's talk that out a little further. >> yeah, i agree. >> you know, let's go item by item. it's very unusual to see the planning commis

and terry duffy, cme group chairman joins us today.ood to see you again. >> thank you for having me >> tell us what we need to know about this firm. >> we like the noise nex is an outstanding firm as you know it has the cash platforms on the interest rates and then the platform on ebs for the foreign exchange very complimentary to cme's futures products and then they have the compression services on the back end for efficiencies for clients. and then obviously they also help with the messaging on foreign exchange so you're talking about looking the foreign exchange market, cme roughly has $90 billion a day. ebs does $90 billion a day in a $5 trillion a day market wlchlt you're able to combine the two platforms of cash and futures on one platform, taking the best of nex and the best of cme, we're confident we can grow the business likewise, putting the single platforms on the broker tech with our treasury complex. so very excited about this transaction. we think it adds a lot of value to clients and that's really where it's at. you have
