i hope john haley and julie hirs hirschbaum and their teams are looking at greater availability. i hope we'll hear in the future about the issues with bart, canopy's project and early morning service and what changes are in store. >> chairman brinkman: thank you. i would like to go out of order and recognize that supervisor kim has just joined us and ask if she would come up. thank you. >> supervisor kim: thank you, director brinkman and director reiskin and want it thank the members of the public to allow me to speak before the 2:00 p.m. board of supervisors meeting. 5 want to speak on the townsend project. it's been a project that i've been speaking with director reiskin and staff members about for the last five years. it's long been a priority project for our office simply by the sheer number of users on this corridor, whether they're pedestrians, cyclists, those that are getting off of caltrain and on and also the sheer number of ride-share vehicles, which has gone up significantly since 2013 when we first started talking about this project. also, with the construction on cen

i would like to ask our director of transit, john haley, to come forward to recognize outstanding muni employees. >> good afternoon, board members, ed. are you ready to meet a couple of heroes? marie, please join me. and heroines. so this is marie rico, who is an operator out of our woods division and has been for the last several years. on an afternoon on june 25, she was driving her normal route, the 54. and then i will turn it over to them to describe the events that transpired. this is todd els. todd is a former air traffic controller. and he finds he's now functioning as a controller much less stressful, particularly during takeoffs and landings of the vehicles. so i will turn it over to them, but i will say to describe the events of june 25 -- i will tip my hand saying this is a story that has a very happy ending. it has a happy ending because of the work of the two individuals. marie, if you don't mind, if you would describe for the board -- >> um, i'm so nervous. excuse me. that day, i got a call on the coach and told me there was a child missing. gave me the description. at fi

tucker: do you think that to the advisors around him who is comments that we just played nikki haley or john they have this with pre-existing negotiations. >> yes, but he has not to listen to his advisors. we would have never made any progress on the north korean peninsula. we were not to be working with the chinese, we would have never met with vladimir putin. so god bless the president, he does not listen to these people. the thing that worries me given some of the comments that are being made, the red meat on the table for the war lobby. we know that there are a lot of people who would welcome conflict with iran. the president needs to watch carefully for the potential for something like the gulf of tonga incident. many of your viewers may not remember that, and never happen. and we could very well be treated as something like that in the gulf. you should watch for that.ha and this is an example of president trump's comments on fake news.s. he should not be sabotaged by fake news. >> tucker: we have seen it happen twice in syria, colonel thank you very much. great to see you. >> thank you

he's hired superb survivors, john bolton, mike pompeo, nikki haley is wonderful at the u.n. it's worth at least giving the benefit of the doubt, this is not the apocalypse. is it a distraction? it's moving on to the next thing. iran just threatened us with the mother of all wars. >> neil: hand he responsed. so this tit for tat just ratcheted up. just a lot of bellicose words or is there something more here? >> there's more in the sense that trump has done more than say obama did. he carried out air strikes on syria. he has stripped isis of its caliphate. things are moving. something is changing. is he prone to hyperbole? absolutely. if he were another president, i might be worried about that statement because that would be normal. with trump, that's normal response when he's trying to be threatening. i think the iranians understand that. i also think there's the bit of unpredictability to what he says and does, certainly to what the he says and does. >> neil: john bolton has spoken with the president. the president said if iran does anything at all to the negative, they will

make sure he's going to have the summit he wants and not what john bolton was not what pompei own wants not one always confused nikki haley wants he's going to have his own they're in they're terrified when he goes into that room with just interpreters and his deep state handlers not their you know to handle him the way he can't do he he what he might do we don't know what he might do but they're terrified of that possibility at him threatening you know threatening that germany that there are eight captives of russia right when the opposite is actually far closer to truth or threatening to pull out of nato right just in the last week they were in the united kingdom where he's having a discussion with the prime minister and saying that boris johnson bojo when you make a great point in there to me but i don't see what. what either side can give to the other i don't see anything ok because there's a lot maybe because there's no preparation for it but i don't i don't see. how i don't think there is in my opinion good results but this was where we know those in november election what need know. after meeting was put in for. el

nikki haley did that the day before and jeff sessions didn't. >> john mccain used a teachable moment.en the woman said he is an arab. >> except that his boss, the president enjoyed it. >> and he would have been in trouble. he didn't have to scold, he didn't have to do either. he could have let the moment pass. >> president trump was tweeting about tariffs. tweeting tariffs are the greatest. in a company which has -- it is as simple as that. and everybody is talking. voters disagree with the president's view on tariffs by two to one. 25% said it will help. however, the president's own poin point. if you remember a long time ago, two years, the republican party was a free trade party. >> the one thing that may break is tariffs. you had senators today criticizing the president on st tariffs. so republicans who have not differed with him on russian meddling. >> why is that a divider? >> because it affects their constituents back home. >> soybeans, tractors. >> it is a pocketbook issue in their home states and home districts. this is a politically and more serious matters. >> trump's strat

john bolton was in the room with the president yesterday. nikki haley was not. normally that team would be on television this morning promoting the president's success. or if there was a misstep amid some success, they would be on tv cleaning it up. they are nowhere. do we read anything in there beyond the fact they can't support it? any indication any of them will go? >> they don't want to be in the business of amplifying this and there's not a great way to make an argument for it, so they're stuck. then you have the same question that you had earlier about republicans and bringing forth people who you may still want in the administration to guide this process. these are the people you may want there to guide this process. maybe their line is his rhetoric exists in the weird bubble outside their policy they're making so perhaps that becomes their line in the future. even though we see some outrageous stuff, which i do not advocate. like the president's words have power regardless. but it doesn't actually affect the policy. it's a very strange place they're in.

john bolton, i know he is no friend of vladmir putin. david: mike pompeo is another one. >> mike pompeo, nikki haley, every single one has clear eyes and areough on russia but this nonsense of going up and flattering vladmir putin, even having a summit with him, then agreeing or saying it is a credible idea to hand over a bunch of anti-putin activists, people who worked in the u.s. government to try to contain russia is just appalling. david: bill, final question, if the white house was to ask you to come and meet with either the president or one of his assistants, either secretary of state or john bolton or whomever, would you do so now to try to clear things up? >> of course i would. i spend a lot of time in washington briefing everybody. nobody has ever asked me at the white house but everybody knows me in the senate and house of representatives and of course. i mean these people should know that vladmir putin is one of the biggest criminals in the world. he needs to be contained, not engaged. david: have you met with john bolton or mike pompeo in the past? >> i met with john bolton before he joined the administration. i don't know mike
