we welcome former ktvu anchor julie julie haener to the noon here. julie, you were so instrumental in bringing him back to the station even after he'd signed off. what are you thinking today? >> gasia andre? you know, i got the news just a little bit ago, and of course, just heartbroken. you know, dennis, we all love dennis. dennis was, you know, meant so much to the bay area and bay area news. and i had been fortunate enough to see him a couple of months ago, almost exactly two months ago, and he had suffered a heart attack and a and a really bad fall at his home in grass valley. and he was in the hospital and he was hanging on. and i got together with bill and mark, and we drove up to visit him and just to see him and spend time with him, it was really good to be near him. and, you know, he was a fighter. he hung on for as long as he could. and, you know, i have to take a minute. it's just we work together so closely for a long time. and just to say, you know, how much dennis was respected and meant so much to the bay area. you know, you can't say enough

[music] >> dennis richmond's former co-anchor julie haener, joined us today on the noon newscast to talk about their many years of working together. >> when i first came to channel two, it was 1997, and dennis was even back then, you know, legendary. he was iconic, no nonsense, you know, straight forward. he had like just a larger than life, you know, feeling when you when you met him, he was almost intimidating. but once you got to know him and when i came in, he was, i think, wanting to see that, you know, i could work hard and, and, you know, get the stories right and go out and do things that mattered. >> and joining us now, the other staples of the 10:00 news. bill martin, former sports director mark ibanez, you said it was tough just walking in the building 20 minutes ago. your love for dennis. tell us more. >> well, i thought i was going to be okay driving in. you know, today has just been a flood of emotions and memories and then walking through and seeing where he used to sit and all that, you know, just all over again. but de

i'm julie julie haener. >> and i'm dennis richmond. >> it's a legacy that those who know dennis richmonday will go on long after the lights go down on his final broadcast. >> i remember this all the years that we that we did this and i. you never get over it. it's so much fun. >> and this. >> is so good when people act like they like me. >> we do like you. what are you doing? dennis. come on. >> i look at some of these anchors who have who have retired, and they won't let go. and- [music] i let go. oh, god, i miss the viewers. >> dennis, is your one of a kind. you're a treasure. so many people love you. you're so beloved in the bay area. and to get here and to be able to sit next to you, you're like an icon. and to have learned from you and to, like, have such a great working relationship with you. so professional and like you said, so prepared. it was just an honor and we had a really good time working together. i know so many people miss you and it's so good to have you back here with us tonight. >> thank you. thank you. thank you for inviting me back. i feel like with all these folks

he is so worried about pad is going to say and julie he gets julie to kind of smooth over julie's oral history about this is really fun to read so that was one of her big pushes. i'm sad she didn't get to see it, but the seeds for that with sandra day o'connor are planted by the nixon administration with a lot of help from mrs. nixon. i just want to assure everybody that that mrs. nixon never said. you want to kill the president? no. in the presence of the secret service. oh, yeah, right. should never use that word during she upset. yes. with president. bravo to you on a wonderful biography. cheers to you. my question is as a woman i'm fascinated the first ladies that are kind of overlooked by time and by the media. can you please share with us what you found your research regarding pat's relationship with mamie eisenhower? oh, yes oh, and that is so fascinating. thank you. i want to give brenda's saint hilaire also a shout out her wonderful work. she herself has amazing work on pat nixon that i reference in the book. so thank you we all kind of build on each other. so maybe i had a lo

julie julie haener, his last partner for several years until his retirement in 2008. >> when i first came to channel two, it was 1997, and dennis was even back then, you know, legendary. he was iconic, no nonsense, you know, straight forward. he had, like, just a larger than life, you know, feeling when you when you met him, he was almost intimidating. but once you got to know him and when i came in, he was, i think, wanting to see that, you know, i could work hard and, and, you know, get the stories right and go out and do things that mattered. >> that expectation was set so high. dennis was a fixture in the bay area long after his retirement in 2008. on that very last night, his final 10:00 news, you know, he was doing the same thing as always on the anchor desk. we all gathered in the newsroom. we watched that final newscast together in the newsroom afterward. you know, we had like champagne and paper cups. we hugged dennis. we took pictures. i actually asked my husband to come, and i can't believe i did this, and i'm so glad that i did. he took some photos here, that show, of course, dennis and juliend mark and you know, bill martin there behind him. and you know, our entire ktvu family from from the decades before. and people were able to say a direct thank you to dennis richmond. so many of us were almost scared to say it. but as you're about to see here in these next couple of pictures, we saw dennis get a little bit emotional and we never saw that in the newsroom. he was all business 100% of the time. high expectations. i never saw the man wear jeans or a tee shirt. i mean, he was 110% the whole time. but just to be able to really take a moment and say thank you to him for his expectation of excellence, for what he meant to us as kids growing up in the bay area, as journalists who were able to work with and for him, you know, the things that dennis taught us are still in effect here in our newsroom every single day. and so i just can't say enough about his last night in the newsroom, people who'd already worked all day long, you know, put, put their regular lives aside, came i

julie julie haener when he retired in 2008. >> when i first came to channel two, it was 1997, and dennis was even back then, you know, legendary. he was iconic, no nonsense, you know, straight forward. he had like just a larger than life, you know, feeling when you when you met him, he was almost intimidating. but once you got to know him and when i came in, he was, i think, wanting to see that, you know, i could work hard and, and, you know, get the stories right and go out and do things that mattered. >> we all have some great dennis richmond stories. longtime ktvu meteorologist bill martin, who just announced that he himself is retiring after 33 years here at ktvu, talked about his time working with the great dennis richmond. >> is a different newsroom environment. man. when i came in here, i'd go into those news meetings. it'd be packed. everybody's in the meetings. >> standing room. even when i started in oh five, it was standing room. >> you needed to. and they'd go, bill, pitch it, and you had to pitch, and you had to do a good job of it. or because we only had one newscaster at the time. and so you had to fight for your time. >> well, we for many viewers, dennis richmond was like a member of the family. we talked with so many people, describing him like a trusted friend who you could count on to give you the information you needed. and yes, with a great sense of style. >> what do you remember most about it? >> well, let me see his clothes. he was a very sharp dresser. he was? yes, he was. and he very concerned. very concerned about the news that he delivered. he always brought it the real. he brought everything true, fact and real. >> so many people told us they grew up with dennis richmond, and that he felt like part of the fabric of the bay area. he certainly was, and a part of our families. we want to encourage you, our viewers, to share those memories that you have growing up with dennis richmond, watching, maybe working with dennis richmond, you can head to ktvu.com/dennis richmond. i know sal is going to join us here to talk about sal and i, i think can share what the sentiment that we just heard julieional. she was on the phone. but. right. you and i came into the newsroom, it felt like we were kids running around here. and dennis richmond was such a presence, and he was a little intimidating. you remember, sal, if dennis richmond was giving a news update from the newsroom, you did not walk by. >> yeah. >> no. >> yeah. no, he. >> didn't walk by. and, you know, at first it was intimidating because i grew up watching him like, there he is in person. but after a while and he got to know you obviously like anybody else, he was very nice. and he was very much of a mentor to a lot of people here. he wanted to see the tradition continue. and, you know, it's i don't know, it's it was like working with someone who really cared and therefore all of us really cared. just following his example. >> i grew to realize that he demanded so much from all of us because he demanded that of himself. >> and let me just add, he was very welcoming to me when i came here 17 years ago and we talked. we didn

julie morgan. julie, thanks for joining us. and i want to point out to everyone that you left the cfpb in january before these cuts, but did the possibility of being fired factor. factor it all into your decision to leave? >> it didn't factor into my decision to leave, but i was incredibly worried about this very scenario. for the people who are at the cfpb still, because, you know, we were seeing signs of this with elon musk being brought into work in the trump administration. while he has these massive conflicts of interest, you know, as he's starting to trying to start his own payments company through the social media platform x. >> yeah, and he's not the only one on the social media platforms trying to do the same. i'm curious, have you spoken with anyone who's been let go from the agency, and if so, what are they telling you? >> you know, i've spoken to people who have been let go from the agency, but i don't even really need to talk to people to understand what's going on here. and people who work at the cfpb are incredibly mission driven. you know, these are people who could have had their pick of jobs at big law firms or at big banks, and instead they chose to go into the federal government in order to protect people and to make sure that big banks and the big tech companies who are working in the, you know, consumer financial spaces are following the law. and so they're incredibly frustrated because they're being told right now that, you know, they basically can't do the work that they need to do to actually follow the law. so they're being told to essentially defy what congress told the agency to do. >> wow. >> so the consumer financial protection bureau. it's one agency whose work directly benefits americans. why dismantle it? i mean, is it all about deregulating the financial industry? >> it's a great question. and you're right. the cfpb does a ton of work that is incredibly important to american families. you know, this is the agency that people can go to if they're scammed by a payday lender, if they have inaccurate information on their credit report, or if they're having trouble with their mortgage servicer. and it really is an agency that provides a direct service to people. so you can actually file a complaint with the cfpb, and you can make sure that you actually get a response from the company or from the agency itself. and so, you know, the efforts right now are being undertaken in the name of waste, fraud and abuse against an agency that delivered $21 billion to back to consumers in its lifetime. it doesn't make sense. the thing that's driving this here is elon musk himself. as i said earlier, elon musk from the start when he bought x, planned to turn it into a payments platform. that's his profit making plan for x, and the thing that stands in his way is having a strong regulator. he wants to own a bank. he wants to operate a bank, but he doesn't want to play by the same rules as other banks. >> so i'm going to get to another question i think in a minute if i have time. but i'm curious the kind of data that was at least temporarily saved from being deleted, or is it more than just investigations into fraud that's underway. >> at investigations at the cfpb? right. the cpb investigates all kinds of lawbreaking by financial institutions. it enforces a number of rules that congress handed to it in the wake of the financial crisis, because the other regulators in this space were asleep at the wheel and allowed a massive financial crisis. so it's far more than than just fraud that's at stake here. and all of the work that cfpb had been doing to enforce the law has been put on hold by the trump administration. >> okay. so and you mentioned getting money back when the company, the agency rather wins money back from its efforts. how do those funds get returned to people who are affected? how do people even know they've been financially hurt? because a question is worth asking about? is the process of getting the money back a complicated one, which then might create the idea that the bureau doesn't directly help anyone? >> the process is overseen by the cfpb. in many cases, the money is being delivered back to people by the banks themselves. there's some technical processes that go on in the background, but cfpb is very much at the center of making sure that that money gets returned to people and gets returned to people in an easy and straightforward way for them. >> okay. we're going to keep a very close eye on elon musk's interests there regarding x and meta's interests as well, trying to develop their own payment systems through their platforms. and we'll have you back to talk about it as well. thank you so much, julieime he said it. now others are repeating it. so what to make of a very problematic idea from a very problematic idea from president trump? auntie, you can't put that right in the dishwasher. watch me. with cascade platinum plus i have upped my dish game. i just scrape... load... and i'm done. in that dishwasher? in that dishwasher. only platinum plus is packed with more dawn to remove up to 100% of grease and food residue. get the highest standard of clean, even in your machine. clean enough for ya? yeah. scrape, load, done. cascade platinum plus. dare to dish differently. with fatigue and light-headedness, i knew something was wrong. then i saw my doctor and found out i have afib, and that means there's about a 5 times greater risk of stroke. symptoms like irregular heartbeat, heart racing, chest pain, shortness of breath, fatigue, or light-headedness, can come and go. but if you have afib, the risk of stroke is always there. if you have one or more symptoms, get checked out. making t

julie and julie, it's nice to see you. this is not unexpected, but, you know, it ends a long legacy. and he has been a very powerful figure. so what does it signal about the realignment of that power within the gop? >> well, i think to your point today is the announcement by mcconnell was not unexpected in many ways. the party started to realign over the last eight years, certainly over the last four, and really cemented itself in its realignment over the last two. and of course, with donald trump winning in november, it was very clear that mcconnell would not go on as the next leader. their relationship was contentious. of course, they are not on the same page about, frankly, many things. but here in the moment, we have john thune as the leader, mcconnell stepping behind the scenes. he said he will not be silent. he won't go away quietly. we've seen that already as he voted against three of donald trump's nominees. i should say today, though, he voted for kash patel, although his statement was not glowing in any way in terms of favoring that nominee for the fbi. but mcconnell had a long career here, a long legacy. he's the longest serving leader of any party. he was seen as somebody who republicans listened to, who they followed. i would say when it comes to foreign policy is when we started to see the shift, the cracks emerge between what mcconnell was trying to do, most notably last year, pushing that ukraine aid across the finish line, his party not really listening to him when he wanted to get that across the floor. but ultimately, months later, speaker johnson negotiating his way out of that with president trump, mcconnell taking a back seat here. but today on the floor, and as his colleagues have echoed, they don't expect him to go away quietly. but he's not messaging his votes ahead of time. he's not trying to get republicans to go in the way that he wants them to go. he's kind of operating on his own, and he will continue to do so for the next year and a half before he ultimately steps down. >> i mean, you mentioned it briefly there, but i also want to talk about the other big news today on capitol hill. and that is kash patel was just confirmed as donald trump's next fbi director. and that's despite controversies around firings, questions about his financial disclosures. and kind of significantly, there were two republican defectors, senator susan collins and lisa murkowski. but it wasn't enough. can you tell us about that? >> no, it wasn't. and that is because senate republicans have a four seat majority, that fourth vote coming from jd vance, able to break any tie as vice president. it was notable that mcconnell voted yes for kash patel. as i shared with you earlier, it was also interesting that his statement didn't say that he was proud to do so, as he did with other nominees. nevertheless, casting that i vote when on the day that he announces that he is leaving the senate and not running for reelection in 2026. lisa murkowski, you mentioned her. she said in her statement that she did have a conversation with kash patel this morning. she respected their their conversations, their meetings. she hopes that he does well. she actually said he needs to succeed in this job. but she said she hopes that he can understand that she cannot support him at this time, given those firings, given his comments, what an ally he's been to trump, both during his first administration, but also in the comments that he's made since. clearly he wants to clean house at the fbi. lisa murkowski was a supporter of chris wray, the outgoing fbi director that trump essentially left no choice but to leave the agency. and nonetheless, we heard from democrats, particularly their opposition this morning in the top democrat on the judiciary committee, dick durbin, standing outside of the fbi building with some of the other members on that panel calling kash patel a political hack, saying that he will be a yes man for donald trump. that is exactly who donald trump has installed around him. and pam bondi in his number two pick for the doj, todd blanche, which will have his vote in the committee next week. and certainly with kash patel atop the fbi, these are the people he's promised to install all along the campaign trail. and republicans are not going to stand in the way of that. >> all right, julieank you so much. and joining us now we're going to turn to former director of hostage recovery for the u.s. government and senior vice president for global operations at the soufan group, christopher o'leary. okay, chris, now that this is becoming a reality. talk to us about what we think a kash patel led fbi is going to look like. >> well, it's. really up to. >> him what decisions. >> he makes here in. >> the. >> next 24. >> to 48 hours. >> if he. >> takes a, you know. >> what the. >> personnel of. >> the fbi are hoping for. >> and what the. >> american people deserve. he takes a leadership stance that is based on character. >> integrity. >> justice, virtue. >> you know. the traits. >> you would expect from the director of the fbi. then he'll probably do fine. he's got a background that is sufficient enough from his time a decade ago working on the kampala, uganda world cup bombing and the benghazi investigations and subsequent arrests. so we built strong relationships with fbi agents

july late july or early august. typically with regard to the budget climate. as you have likely read in the news, the city is projected to have approximately $876 million deficit over the next two fiscal years. >> the deficit is being driven by a combination of specific factors but really at the most fundamental level it is a matter of expenses growing at a pace more rapid than revenues are growing. in addition contributing to the challenges the city is having to curtail its reliance on one time sources of funding including fema funding and general fund reserves or fund balance which have actually moderated the the deficit over the last several years. so those sources are being depleted and we're kind of coming to the point where we have to make it balance. the city has to make that balance on an ongoing basis. in response to the projected deficit in this year's budget instructions, direct departments to cut general fund support by 15% on an ongoing basis. as in addition as an immediate step as again you may have read in the newspapers mayor laurie on january ninth announced a hiring freeze for all city departments and positions with a few very limited exceptions. >> as is noted on this slide, some of the directives that were included in the budget instructions are to assess community based organization grant allocations for efficiency to reexamine all contractual services and non personnel expenditures. and as i mentioned, the hiring freeze on my phone. >> on this slide we'll talk about the budgeted revenues. this general fund line on this slide does include the mandatory 15% reduction that i just mentioned. our total operating budget as you can see is projected to decrease from fiscal 25 to 26 and then increase modest leigh in fiscal 27. the overall decline in our budget is is really driven by two primary factors. one is a decline in our hotel tax revenue in fiscal 26 relative to the fiscal 25 budget. another is a reduction in grant revenue which is simply a matter of the mellon grant revenue having been fully recognized in fiscal 25. the grant period extends to fiscal 26 but the revenue has all been recognized already a slight change from last year and prior year's budget presentations is that we have as you can see on the third line broken out the symphony funds that come to us pursuant to the charter and pass through us to the symphony. >> we thought it was perhaps a bit more transparent to really reflect how much of the general fund support for our department is retained by the department for our purposes versus passing through. previously those were condensed into one general fund line. >> our overall budget request operating plus capital will fluctuate just basically given the nature of some capital projects being one time. so the overall budget does decline and request i should say budget request important to underscore that does decline moderately from the fiscal 25 to 26 and then increases again driven by a large capital project which we'll talk about on a later slide from fiscal 26 to 27. >> the hotel tax being such a large component of our revenue sources, i wanted to spend a moment to talk about some of the trends and recent performance that we've seen in the hotel tax. so this chart is going back to fiscal 24 and out through the second year of the current budget proposed budget cycle fiscal 27. the red bars are the budget in revenue and further for those years that have already been completed or are now in the budget process. in the last year's budget process the gray bars our actual or projected actual revenue. what you can see well let me step back. the hospitality sector recovery has slowed in the recent period and that is affecting hotel tax revenue. we're very excited. i was just in an uber earlier today listening to my uber driver talk about how busy it is with the jpmorgan health care conference in town and how many people are here hopefully having a very successful conference and also filling up hotels and driving rev par which is revenue per available room which is the thing that the comptroller's office tracks. so hopefully you know, some of those big events will lead to a stronger second half of fiscal 25. >> but so far it's been a little weak. >> so what has happened is that actual collections of hotel tax revenue underperformed the budget in fiscal 24. so as you can see that's the the differential between the red bar which was the budget revenue and the gray bar which is what we actually collected again in fiscal 25 you can see the red bar. it was budgeted at a level that is well in excess of what the comptroller's office now is projecting to collect in this current fiscal year the. >> so based on these trends what has happened in fiscal 26? the red bar there in the tiny writing if you can read it says fiscal 2526 adopted budget that was where the overall projection of hotel tax revenue was back in july. and the gray bar is how they've updated in the current base budget. so the what is now in our budget as expected revenue for fiscal 26 even from july to now as you can see that discrepancy between the or the delta between the red bar and the gray. it's quite notable. so we are hoping that this will turn around but the reason i spend this time on this is to to preview something we're going to talk about on the next slide. but so as you can see the the forecast for fiscal 26 revenue has been revised downward by almost $2 million in the last seven months where this starts to show up in our project, our proposed expenditure our budget is is going to be i'm going to talk about in a moment but overall at a high level it does affect the overall operating budget again with revenues declining expenditures have to decline accordingly. so this slide shows projected revenues by program and as you can see the overall budgeted operating expenditures are declining and keeping with that revenue drop

department and the first year july 1st starting july 1st 2025 through june 30th 2026 eric mentioned that there is going to be the plan to have a manager on board six months prior to july 1st, 2026 and then additionally the other 14 positions in the staffing plan would be onboarded two months prior to july 1st 2020 six. >> so the cost of all that labor when you when you actually put that into the budget system ends up being a little under $600,000 581,947 and then in year two all 15 positions equal 2.9 million roughly. >> and then additionally we've budgeted the cost of materials and supplies in both years we're anticipating 50 thousand dollars in year one $200,000 in year two and then also in year three we've budgeted an estimate for equipment and fleet to ensure that we have significant sufficient equipment for the team that is going to be operating at treasure island. and since this is a winding up period for us it's also a winding down period for rubicon . we also put on this budget slide the anticipated cost of title contracts in year one and the title budget for park maintenance is a little under $1.5 million 1.49 followed by a year or two with the wind down $340

julie fine live in dallas for a special interview with fedex governor greg abbott. julie? >> government abbott, thank you so much for being with us. >> my pleasure. thank you, julieto start with the news of the morning the president saying he will have some type of announcement on reciprocal tariffs in the coming days. now, he has paused tariffs for now on mexico and canada. bloomberg had a story earlier this week in lo rado, very concerned about these. are you concerned this will affect the texas economy? >> not really. and there's a reason for that. that's because he had these tariff announcements during his first term as president and it didn't really impact the texas economy. the texas economy is the most powerful economy in the united states. and we're able to withstand all types of challenges. to be honest, i'm not really concerned about this. and we've seen as everybody observed and that is sometimes these tariffs are used strategically to achieve certain purposes like what happened with mexico and canada. and it worked out to the united states advantage that certain board security measures were taken by mexico as well as fentanyl issues with canada. so th

julie certainly represents things that i've said over time and what i'm looking for in a director of transportation and i've known julie for quite a long time not just here but at clipper executive board meetings. that's very, very important. clipper executive board. i go to their meetings. i'd encourage you to check them out, read the agendas or even watch the videos if you can't make them in person. >> and but but most of all, what i like about julie is julie is always respected me as the person i am. julie's very good at respecting people for who they are and welcoming people into music so i'm very, very grateful for that. >> so thank you for your decision and there's a lot going on and i stayed away from the crowds and i did get to enjoy a bit of free muni on sunday. don't get to see that very often but i went to the fourth and king i got off caltrain and they had signs up and people there telling us that we had free muni just like back in september or we had a weekend of free caltrain when they put the electric trains into service. >> so we do have a lot going on. i did see the street dug up at california on the california cable car line near the embarcadero. so hopefully we'll get that fixed up soon so i can enjoy the cable car again. but really i do ask that julie share with other transit systems not just here at bay area but perhaps in new york where they where they have a subway with a capital a big capital s where i come f

july and july. election year. so the bloodhound ad, what was that? well, it was a desperate situation. roger ailes, who's now pretty well known of it, could you find roger ailes that? well, he in those days, he was doing a political consulting, doing commercials. so he was willing to take on somebody in a democratic state who was 30 points behind. well, he had a couple of clients he thought were going to win that year. and me and me and i appreciated the fact he was willing to take me on. but i mean, this is a tough competitor. you can see how he started cnbc for nbc and started fox for rupert murdoch. here's the situation. and it was it was july of the election. i was down 1984, 1984. i was down 34 points. we had a meeting in louisville and i said, roger, is this race over? and here's what he said. he said, i've never known anybody come from this far behind, this late to win, but i don't think it's over. a very competitive guy. i was running against a pretty smart democratic incumbent who didn't have a lot of obvious vulnerability as we were looking for some kind of issue that a needle in the haystack, if you will. and it turned out this was back in the honorary days, which i didn't have any problem. people making speeches for money. but he had been making speeches for money while he was missing votes on the senate floor. so ailes turned that into a couple of ads featuring a kentucky hunter type person with bloodhounds out looking for huddleston to get him back to work. and it electrified the campaign, got people interested, and it got people talking about it. and then there was a sequel later in which we had a guy who looked

joining me now is nbc news homeland security correspondent julie ainslie. so, julieearing next hour, there's another hearing in boston tomorrow, i believe, including yesterday's hearing. how are these cases different? >> well, in short, the decisions have been the same as we saw yesterday in maryland. and we previously saw from this judge in seattle. the judges are finding this to be completely unconstitutional for trump to try to end birthright citizenship without going through congress, where he would have to get a two thirds majority in order to change the 14th amendment in seattle. this very judge that we're going to hear from again in just five minutes when the hearing begins there. that judge previously said it boggled his mind. this is an 85 year old reagan appointed judge that anyone would try to say that it was constitutional or legal to try to end birthright citizenship through an executive order. that was a temporary restraining order. what they are now seeking is a preliminary injunction to stretch that out. but in the end, andrea, all of this is going to

and this was all set up under the biden administration, a memorandum of understanding in july last year. last july, planes started taking people out of panama, back to colombia and other countries starting in august. so this was just watching an event that showed that, you know, panama was cooperating on migration, but there was a real showdown there this weekend where he met with the president, the rest of the government, all the ministers, and said that president trump has decided that china's involvement, operating two ports among the five ports along the panama canal mean that china is a direct threat to national security, and it's a violation of the panama canal treaty of 1977. and therefore they're going to be taking some action. so this is the first time he's talking to the press. i believe since this whole trip started, he didn't in panama at all. panama canal again, jeffrey is, you know, a showdown over this. from my reporting, i was there for five days. five nights. panama runs the canal. it's very clear and has five ports and has for decades. >> somehow our goods keep. >> getting throug

i believe if we get to july of this coming season, when we get to july, i see like a tent peg being put in the ground. and if we can hold our ground up to july, there's going to be victory that will take place and then the recalibration starts. and this recalibration will begin to take us into the coming year, which is '26, of course. and this is the year i see called, pick up sticks. and in this year, 2026, i believe this is gonna be a rebuilding time, a time of recalibrating and building things forward. the thing the lord spoke to me right after the electoral cycle was, it's time to storm babylon. we need to storm babylon. if we keep standing with israel, the way we're meant to, the way this network has meant to and has, we're gonna begin to see the favor of god come on this land, and i believe that we're gonna get a future for our children's children, that i believe god is setting us up for the next 16 years, which will lead us to 2040. and in 2040, i believe that will be a decision, should jesus tarry and the lord not return today, but if should jesus tarry, we will get to the time where we continue going forward, and i believe this will

julie. >> sirkin on capitol hill. julie, what are we learning? >> well, big news, but certainly not unexpected. mitch mcconnell, who is the longest serving party leader on either side of the aisle, announced today on his 83rd birthday that he will not seek reelection in 2026. now, this was expected, but he makes it official today. and this is notable for so many reasons. of course, he is 83 years old. he's had some health concerns, especially over the last year. he's actually in a wheelchair right now. that's how he gets around the capitol, something he's refused to do. he's a polio survivor and so his balance has always been shaky. but just in terms of the legacy that he's been able to cement here, we've seen during the first month, frankly, of the second trump administration that he voted against key nominees of president trump, including pete hegseth, including tulsi gabbard, the way he votes on kash patel later today in the confirmation vote is still an open question, but mcconnell has really taken a stand against trump, especially when it comes to foreign policy. this is somebody who, over the next year and a half, jose is going to have power as the top republican on the defense subcommittee, on the appropriations committee, that essentially means that he will go face to face with pete hegseth, with the pentagon, with defense spending. this is important for mcconnell, as he is somebody who has cemented his legacy around his foreign policy chops. this is somebody who's the old guard of the republican party that we don't really see in the new freshman class in terms of his support of ukraine and his continued support of that country, especially as the president has made disparaging comments about president zelensky and certainly mcconnell in private and certainly in public. not a fan of how trump is going about all of this. but this is, of course, a monumental day. it is an official day for mcconnell. he has some bad blood, certainly not secret with trump. he's been ostracized and pushed out essentially of leadership because of that. but he has taken his role behind the scenes quite seriously, as i've already laid out. and we will see in just a few moments when he takes to the floor and gives his floor speech about his decision, what he will have to say there. but it's also important to remember that while mcconnell has taken this role as the trump opposition in chief here, he is not somebody who voted to convict him during his second impeachment trial and perhaps gave way to the second trump term, something of course mcconnell long did not support, but ultimately came around last year and made some amends with the president and supported him ultimately in his position there. >> jose julie sirkin on capitol hill, thank you very much. and there is breaking news on the economy and the economic front. the dow has fallen. it's fallen more than 500 points after retail giant walmart issued a lackluster forecast, about 581 points down at this hour. nbc's brian chung joins us now. brian, what is this all about? >> yeah, jose, that amounts. >> to just over 1% in terms of a drop on. >> the dow. >> not necessarily anything. >> that's too, you know, unremarkable. >> but it is nonetheless. the case. >> that when we take a look at. >> walmart earnings. >> they're issuing. >> a warning. >> about what the economy looks like. this is obviously one of the largest retailers. >> in the country. >> and they issued. >> earnings this. >> morning that were actually pretty good on both revenue. >> and net income. >> they did beat. the wall street estimates, but it's their. forecast for what the fiscal year ahead is going to look like. that caused. investors to, you know, start to sell off the s

july -- in july. we visited with two teenagers. one young woman who was 16 who not only host her mother in a russian attack but she lost her ability to walk. she think she had, senator tillis, about 16 operations, at the opponent we saw her and they were pleased that they thought she was actually going to be able to walk again thanks to the great care that she got at the amtti hospital that the russians deliberately targeted in july. but, like so many ukrainians, the young woman we met with hasn't given up. her father sat by her side surgery after surgery, and despite the odds, she is learning to walk again. she reflects, i think, the resilience, the perseverance everyplace that we want and every meeting that we had. despite russia's advantages and size and manpower, ukrainians have not and will not give up. and we should not give up on them either. ukrainians have developed robotic mobile fire teams, as i said. they have been able to make incredible innovations to fix damaged battlefield equipment. we had a chance on our way into ukraine to go through poland where their moving -- they're moving equipment into ukraine and where we saw the center where they have a group chat with people on the front lines to help them with instructions on how to fix the equipment in real time as it gets damaged. this not only saves time and money for the ukrainians, but for us it's an incredible learning opportunity for us as we t

july 4, lincn addresses congress talking abo malicious and habeas corpus. july1 was the start of the battle of bull run. and it was january 1, 1863, abraham lincoln issues the emancipation proclamation. and nigel hamilton, that's the day that your book ends. why did you choose to end it there? mr. hamilton: well, we haven't had a chance to discuss all the battles that took place just in 1861 and 1862. but the truth was, these battles almost invariably, with some exceptions, went against the north and president lincoln as commander-in-chief. and my contention is that -- and i'm not the only historian to say so -- is that once lincoln was forced by jefferson davis's and robert e. lee's blunder -- was forced into issuing an emancipation proclamation for the 3.5 million enslaved people in the south. from that moment, january 1, 1863, the south was doomed. until then, jefferson davis had been allowed by lincoln to frame the war as a noble, white, southern fight for independence. pure and simple. but from the moment that lincoln said no, you, jefferson davis, and your

julie: you can say it. mark: two of the non-males and one of the males, that is the five that worry me. understand that your constitution doesn't provide for birthright citizenship, period. julie: i want to add one fine point because you said a lot there. notice how it is the republican party that consistently has been the champion of the quality and -- of equality and the rights of black people throughout history? mark: every major civil rights bill from 1866 through the 1950's with eisenhower, the 1960's, the republicans either wrote, sponsored it, or had super majorities to get them passed. the democrat party is the party of slavery, eugenics, jim crow, now of marxism, islamism, and anti-constitutionalism. julied the military when he became president. mark: god bless you all, our time is up. thank you, president trump. ♪ >> of nation seems under siege, one organization is willing to fight for america's principles and defend our children's future. >> president of the american principles project. >> this is what happens when tolerance goes too far. >> it is a bit shocking to hear democrats talk about them losing the culture war. after all, they started it. >> you are denying them reality. you are denying them the care they need. >> the only homicide on january 6 was the unlawful shooting death of ashli babbitt. this lawsuit, a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit against the united states government. she was unarmed, there were no weapons, she was shot in the shoulder and killed. >> he popped out and shot her dead. >> ashli was shot in cold blood and the rule of law requires justice for her. >> under attack, the home, the church, the government. many people are asking, what is the truth? jesus ch

july and july 18th last year we have an office program mailing list. any time there are updates we send it out. so we sent that draft inventory out to them. >> we did another planning commission hearing here on julyto also announce it. >> we updated our website etc. we provided essentially a month for public feedback but we didn't get any public comment on that and so after that period we finalized everything and published the inventory on august 30th and no appeals were filed during the appeal period and so what was the result? >> we basically found 2.3 million square feet of conversions in demolition since 1986 and that was through 32 different specific projects to conversions nine demolitions and one that was a combination and the size and the geography was pretty diverse. sizes ranged from 10,600 to over 400,000ft2. and then just in terms of geography and size you can see most of the projects kind of hug the market street spine and then the financial district area. but we did have some outliers to the south and to the north a lot diversity in size and but most of them were were conversions not a lot of demolitions but that's that's how we kind of got to the number we have right now in our lar

of the investigation into the buts her pennsylvania shooting in july and lapses in communication and lack of diligence by some agents on julyied as a person of interest nearly an hour before president trump took the stage and secret service spotted crooks on roof a building at 5:52 p.m. and he fired first shots 10 minutes later before a secret service sniper team shot and killed him. crooks motive remains unknown. two months later in september ryanroot charge with trying to kill president trump as he was golfing at a club in west palm beach, peel, secret service agents spotted a barrel of a gun along fence line, as he was conducting a perimeter security sweep. ruth run away caught by police two hours later. trump family mentioned their desire for answers eric trump told "daily mail" in october this isn't just something that american people want to know. this is something the entire world deserves to know. charlie, rachel and griff. griff: thank you madeleine. rachel: it is amazing there was another interview with eric trump before the election where he said basically when my father takes office one thing we want to get to t

, and i'm even suggesting 50-year bonds that would mama cure on july 4th, 2076, that'll be our 300th anniversary, we know next year on julydate for this president who wants to really be triumphant about the american idea and how it enable as opportunity and economic freedom for individuals and to really celebrate our model of a free market economy by making the dollar as good as gold; that is, by offering a bond instrument that has a face value denominated in u.s. dollars but at maturity, at the auction of the bondholder, they could also be compensated in terms of gold. they would be able to say i would rather be paid out in a a pre-specified amount of gold than that dollar principal amount. and this could be, this could be the beachhead. this would be setting up a barometer of how much progress we make over the next 50 years toward balancing our budget, toward paying off our national debt and toward achieving not the 2% fed if inflation if target which means deliberate debasement of our national money unit, but actually reaching zero inflation if. because at one time the dollar was as good as gold. charles: right. >> thi

julie sirkin is reporting on capitol hill and joins us now. julie, i'm curious what more the senator said. i will say what i heard there was a certain amount of emotion to it all. >> yeah, absolutely. alex. and you can imagine as somebody who, as he said, has been in the senate for seven, six year terms, announcing today in what was much not much of a surprise to anyone really in the senate or anyone in washington, that he wouldn't seek an eighth term in 2026. today, i should add, is his 83rd birthday. he's been suffering from some health issues. most recently, of course, he suffered from a fall and we've seen him in a wheelchair ever since. but this is somebody who's taken a turn, i would say, in trying to cement a different kind of legacy. since he stepped down as the senate republican leader, and he has taken that voice as somebody who has been loud in opposing president trump's nominees. he voted against pete hegseth, tulsi gabbard. we will see what he will do later on with kash patel to head the fbi. he also will hold the purse strings, essentially the power of the purse when it comes to the pentagon. the defense department in his new role on that subcommittee. and that's important, of course, because of his views on ukraine and because of his views on foreign policy, many of which run very counter to the current administration. take a listen to a little bit more of his speech as you hear there, the full chamber applauding him. >> regardless of the political storms that may wash over this chamber during the time i have remaining, i assure our colleagues that i will depart with great hope for the endurance, the endurance of the senate as an institution. the senate is still equipped for work of great consequence, and to the disappointment of my critics, i'm still here on the job. >> and many senate republicans today, reacting to his decision not to run again, saying that of course they do not expect mcconnell to be silent. >> yeah. and as we talk about mcconnell, who, by the way, is well known for his desire to place conservatives and has been successful in doing so in judicial positions, he voted no on three of trump's nominees. you mentioned two of them. we're about to see the final vote on kash patel as fbi director. who else are we watching to see if patel gets over the finish line? >> well, we do expect at this point that he'll have no problem getting over the finish line because that kind of republican opposition that maybe you would have expected when trump first nominated kash patel, somebody who's certainly seen as a loyalist, as an ally, somebody who worked for him and had said things like getting rid and firing political opponents. certainly in this case, only susan collins has so far voted no in that procedural vote today, which indicates that if all the other senate republicans, or at least most of them, vote to confirm him, even with all those on the democratic side, which i should say is quite unprecedented for an fbi director, he will still sail through. mcconnell, like i mentioned, is an open question. but republicans and you can hear that in what leader thune had said earlier this morning, do support his nomination and don't take any issues with him, at least publicly. take a listen to thune and also leader durbin. excuse me. durbin, who is the top democrat on the judiciary committee here. watch this. >> i look forward to working with mr. patel to restore the integrity of the fbi and get it focused on its critical mission. >> i'm convinced he has neither the experience, the judgment nor the temperament to lead the fbi. my senate republican colleagues are willing, willfully ignoring myriad red flags about mr. patel, especially his recurring instinct to threaten retribution against his perceived enemies. >> now, those comments from durbin came this morning, where top democrats on the judiciary committee held another press conference outside of the fbi building, trying in their very best powers to slow this nomination down. there's not much they can do. republicans have a four seat majority with jd vance able to break a tie in the senate. so by all means, kash patel has the votes. that doesn't mean the democrats didn't try to delay his confirmation process again, though. that's really all they can do. >> yeah. okay. julien, thank you so much from capitol hill. joining me right now we have democratic congresswoman madeleine dean. congresswoman, good to see you, my friend. so you were among those lawmakers hiding from rioters in the gallery on january 6th, and now we're seeing kash patel, a longtime trump loyalist who has supported january 6th rioters right here on the cusp of being the director of the fbi for a ten year term. what kind of feelings run through your mind right now? and thoughts. >> and it also reminds me of the leaders you just showed mcconnell speaking, thune speaking. i call upon the leaders to recognize that kash patel does not have the character, the integrity, the understanding and respect for the rule of law. he doesn't have the capacity to run the fbi. let's remember what the fbi is. it is our lead law enforcement agency, 38,000 dedicated public servants who work at the fbi, whether they're agents or analysts, support staff, scientists, technicians, you name it, most of them very d

julie roginsky, democratic strategist and author of the salty politics newsletter on substack. julie, how is this different from the strategy that dems have done in the past? is simply leaving d.c. enough to leave the democratic brand woes behind? >> it's a start, but. >> it's certainly not enough. look, we need. >> a. >> top to bottom. >> cleaning, house cleaning. >> and i think what we need to do is. >> have a. >> serious look. >> at what went wrong in the last election. >> but most importantly. >> we. >> need to learn how to communicate. >> and where to communicate. >> i think the problem is that democrats. have been so worried about segmenting. their communication that they've forgotten basically the forest for the trees, and we don't know how to communicate to voters on their. terms holistically, because we try so hard not to. offend some segment of our base that we end up offending everybody. so it doesn't just mean that you have to go to texas and missouri and pennsylvania and every state that the new chairman is going to. it means that we have to go to places like substack and youtube and not just go to the same old places where where we've typically communicated, because that's not where the voters are anymore. it's certainly not where the growing number of voters are migrating to. but most importantly, we need to have a strategy as to how to deal with the fact that our constitutional republic is dying. and i have not seen the new chairman or, frankly, any of our leaders in washington right now speaking to that. they are in some completely scared child pose posture where they're too worried about what to say, even as the president dismantles everything this country stands for. and i think that's the biggest three alarm fire that we could possibly address right now. i strongly urge the new chairman to address it immediately and to rally our leaders across the states and across capitol hill to do the same. >> that's just one of the things that ken martin is going to have to deal with. because you're right, this has been an active argument within washington. around is the pushback enough? what more can democrats do, especially given the fact that they are in the minority in congress? even congressman seth moulton, who's been critical of the party, was on with me last hour saying, yeah, maybe we've made some changes, but certainly not visible and not enough. but for ken martin, even this morning on morning joe, before he embarked on this tour of key states, he was asked about questions on policy that plagued democrats during the election, specifically on trans and gender policy. and he sort of avoided the issue as a central focus, instead just saying, well, we're going to do an autopsy of what went wrong. time is of the essence, right? i mean, can democrats avoid this conversation much longer? >> listen, it's not a difficult message. donald trump promised to bring down grocery prices on day one. he made that promise in august. every single part of your grocery bill has gone up since he's been in office. that is something that affects you whether you're trans or you're straight, or you're a man, or you're a woman, or you're black or you're white or you're latino, it doesn't matter. we have to start speaking to people on their own terms. he is dismantling our democracy, and the fact that we're sitting around having to think about things. what is there to think about? he and every single leader of our party needs to be out there every single day. i respectfully disagree with hakeem jeffries. he's not derek jeter. he doesn't have to pick and choose which pitches to hit. you hit every single one because this president is serving up softballs for you. it is easy to hit back at something that is destructive of our country and destructive of our party, and destructive of our collective community. and rather than sitting around figuring out how to segment everything and doing it yet another focus group, or listening to yet another political consultant, i say this as a consultant myself. go out there and explain to the people what is happening to our country. i don't know whether our leaders in washington. i certainly hope the new chairman hears this, but listen, i just did a chat with my substack subscribers on sunday. the furor and just the anger that the base is feeling towards our leaders because they felt abandoned. they feel abandoned. they feel like nobody's out there standing up for their values right now. and these are people who are progressive democrats, but they're also people who are moderate democrats. this is across the board. this is not a matter of ideology. it is a matter of whether we have people in charge who are fighters or people in charge who are cowering. donald trump did not get a mandate. he did not have a mandate. he barely won the popular vote in one of the closest elections in history. so for us to be treating him like he's some sort of immovable object is absurd. go out there and fight. that is what the party needs from its chairman. that's what it needs from its leaders on the hill right now. >> juliethat i know i've been having with sources and elected members here in washington and ongoing debate. thank you for joining us. thank you. and coming up next, a fiery and tough to reach pileup deep inside a major interstate tunnel. the possible cause and the dramatic video as cause and the dramatic video as people tried to make it ou end-of-season savings just landed at wayfair. our presidents' day clearance is here! and with deals this big, you'll be like, am i a... big deal?
