. >> eric brooks, california for energy choice. once again as usual i want to thank and congratulate the sfpc for making real and serious progress. that is good. just to dovetail off the last piece of conversation you got into with barbara. what i heard her say is that the sfpc in 2020, a year from now will be putting in its capital plan buildout plans with an s. that means small individual projects identified individually. it doesn't mean city and county wide and territory wide plan. that is because it is the sfpc job could be conservative with the plans. that is not its role that needs to come from the legislature and board of supervisors. right now we have a situation where the world is waking up. the green party since the mid 2 thoughs are talking about a new deal now progressive democrats like cortez are driving for a green deal. world war ii level mobilization in every city on earth t to buid out a real plan for the entire city and county. that is what we need. that is where in 2019 we need the board of supervisors to pass a

eric brooks again. this time i'm speaking on behalf of the local grass root's organization, our city, san francisco. anand the san franciscogreen pa. i want to direct this to all but especially the commissioner, we recent -- a coalition of my group and green action and some others working on the bayview hunter's point and treasure island crises have met with your aide and it's important what we do on treasure island, the same contractor did almost all of the clean-up work since the mid90s and probably falsified a lot of that work, where there's radio active contamination right now that people are exposed to, where there's chemical contamination like dioxins that people are being exposed to, we need to halt the development program on treasure island, the same way the program in bayview hunters' point has been halted. part of the process is that, frankly, chida, treasure island development authority is bought and paid for by the developers and has been, basically, lying to the board of supervisors, preten

>> one last time eric brooks. all of the groups i mentioned before. yes, on your next agenda before the joint meeting with sfpc please start unpacking this municipalization process and what it means and implications. another thing to focus on is that in the last pg&e bankruptcy after enron they took $5 billion and shuttled to the wall street parent corporation and then the ratepayers paid $5 billion for no reason whatsoever except for the shell game. we need to protect ourselves both locally and on the state level against games like that. then i want to also one quick note on the uber lyft thing, it would be helpful to the public if the executive officer could start putting the words such as uber and lyft in the lines of that item. a lay person wouldn't know it is about uber and lyft. it would be nice if you could indulges that. that is one piece we need to pay attention to ab56. i believe it is assembly member garcia. i think i am right on the name. what it will do is centralize all energy procurement decisions under a state agency. that would clearl

so under the heading of any time i can agree with eric brooks, i will stand up and do so. the points that eric just made about the build-out of local generation, renewable generation, this has been promised to people, and i'm a san francisco resident, as well, this has been promised to people in the city for 15 years. we met actively with leadership at the sfpuc, i think five or six years ago. they have identified 20 different projects they can build that have not moved forward in at least ten years. i shouldn't say for all 20. there's a list the puc has identified. this is something we can do. people voted and there was a ballot measure talking about clean energy projects and infrastructure that we in sanfrancisco approved. you have to push this forward. it's something that is incumbent on a city that is clean, clean, clean and doesn't own or invest in clean energy projects. thank you. >> thank you. >> just as an action item, can you send commissioner hainy and marr a list of the report? thank you. i see no action is to be taken on this matter. madam clerk -- oh, public co

brooke. >> okay. eric swalwell said this, we are going to take an mri to any russian financing that the trump organization and the president may have had, so you tell me, would you use the same analogy of an mri and can you be specific about why you're suspicious particularly about the president's finances? >> look, i think that the fact that the president is not willing to share his tax returns, the fact that he's -- he's got connections with so many russian oligarchs and others that, you know, it basically raises the question of, what were exactly the transactions that occurred in 2016 leading up to the election? just one example, the trump tower/moscow meetings, what exactly was the reason why michael cohen found himself lying over and over again about when those discussions ended? first it was january, later it was the summer, rudy giuliani said it went up all the way through the elections. those are just some of the issues that beg the question about what exactly is within the president's finances tha

brooks derose in our newsroom tonight. >>> senator dianne feinstein said the confirmation a federal judge to the ninth circuit would break a century-old senate tradition. senator feinstein stat on twitter the nominee eric miller would be the first circuit judge ever confirmed without so- called blue slip approval by either home state senator. republicans voted last night to end the debate on the nomination of eric miller to the appeals court. if he is approved, miller would be the third judge appointed by president trump to sit on the ninth circuit.esident trump for attorney michael cohen testified behind closed doors in washington today. he arrived on capitol hill this morning for the first of their congressional appearances this week. he met with the senate intelligence committee to testify about issues including the russia probe and hush money payments to women who alleges they had affairs of mr. trump before he became president. tomorrow, cohen will testify in public before the house oversight committee. he is set to begin serving a three-year prison sentence on may 6th after pleading guilty to campaign-finance fraud and lying to congress. >> the american people deserve to know whether donald trump
