i got along great with chairman kim. i got along great.ng, not a bad thing, by the way. >> reporter: but there is still no denuclearization agreement and pompeo revealing days ago, kim is holding on to his vital weapons capabilities. >> yes, they continue to produce phfissile material. >> what kim is doing so far is not seen as significant by u.s. intelligence. test tunnels were blown up, but the u.s. believes the explosions were superficial and the tunnels could be rebuilt. some destruction of facilities seen in commercial satellite imagery is at a largely out of date launch station. the worry, kim is using the nearly two months since singapore to keep building warheads and missiles capable of attacking the u.s., and the concern is kim will never declare the full scope of it all. now, eavesdropping and intercepting kim's communications may be the only way to learn the truth, some officials say. trump has applauded the return of 55 boxes of remains presumed to be americans killed in the war, tweeting, thank you to chairman kim jong-un for

off kim jong un and. by his father and later on kim jong un criticized his younger brother and said he lacked leadership qualities so that was enough motive. for him just to kill kim jong nam and also you have to say you have those four north korean suspects who fled the country and the north korean side has shown no sort of cooperation of willingness to corporate in this highly suspicious case and the quick question is if you will ever find out the truth ok it looks like this case is turning into an international thriller sandra rocks so for us in kuala lumpur thanks very much we have some sports for you now in the first world football rankings since the world cup are out and they show a massive drop for germany the team that went into this summer's tournament right number one here's what the new talks here looks like france of course takes over the first position by virtue of winning the world cup second belgium third brazil force is world cup runner up croatia way down number fifteen is germany this af

it does remind kim jong-un that donald trump has said, kim knows what he is supposed to do to start denuclearizationknow all the details. but our commander in korea hinted last week that what we want to see is may be an inventory of weapons, get more information. maybe whatever it is denuclearization is on track but the engine is stalled right now. and so we are waiting to see if kim will move it forward or not. arthel: explain this, doctor grant. in light of reporting they say 18 days after the summit in singapore with president trump and kim jong-un it was discovered kim jong-un had no plans to denuclearize. so this is conflicting reports according to what you just told me that you are hearing and meanwhile you have president trump, continuing to post flattering and favorable tweets about kim jong-un. is that part advisable as the president tries to continue his offensive? >> yes. first, the intelligence report i take it with a grain of salt because it is sort of all reported. we really want to see what happens after singapore. i think a key part here is if kim does move towards denuclearization,

kim. we'll take that without objection. all right. madam clerk. next item. >> item 38 is an ordinance to amend the planning codes to allow limited non conforming specified zoning districts to operate between the hours of 10:00 p.m. and 12:00 a.m. with conditional use and authorization to the determination and to make the appropriate findings. >> madam clerk, on the question of should it be passed call roll. >> item 38, mandelman. >> aye. >> peskin. >> aye. >> supervisor ronan. >> aye. >> safai. >> aye. >> steph. >> tang. >> aye. >> yee. >> aye. >> brown. >> aye. >> cohen. >> aye. >> supervisor fewer. >> aye. >> supervisor kim. >> aye. there are 11 ayes. >> this ordinance passes unanimously. item 39 and 40, please, madam clerk. >> clerk: item 39 is a resolution to determine the prem advertise to premise transfer of a type 48 on sale general public liquor license for business development inc doing business as executive order located at 868 mission street will serve the public convenience and

problem who had been very critical of kim yong. and who had claimed that he had elected leadership go so there was clearly a motivation during the investigation that it was very clear that korea had no interest at all in any form of cooperation they even claimed that kim young john lamb was not murdered but that it was all just a heart attack so the big question is whether we will ever on the truth from our correspondent founder about so in kuala lumpur for us thank you so much. now can go warn us when a volcano is about to erupt or when an earthquake is going to happen while german and russian researchers think so and that's how the project was born it aims to monitor the behavior and migration habits of birds animals and even insects around the world so we can learn more about our earth now the project has taken a huge leap forward with the installation of the tracking system on the international space station so it took the cosmonauts all. copy of nearly eight hours to install an antenna on the external surface of the internatio

we are back with dan henninger, kim strassel and allysia finally, kim, let me start with you, bill deictory lap and said to show we will not back down from any big company, why did he really do it in? >> he really did it to protect the cab industry in new york which they gave a lot of other reasons, oh, you know, congestions, people are not riding the subway anymore. protecting complex regulations an medallions that new york issues and have kept the number of cab medallions artificially low to regulate how many cabs were there and got blown apart when the app companies started coming in and has put a lot of dye stress on cab companies and there has been some financial fallout but that's called new technology. and the answer shouldn't be to now try to extend that licensing and regulation to the entire new field but rather to start over and deregulate and let competition work. paul: dan, is this going to affect congestion in new york? i know as a loyal new yorker, somehow i'm not seeing that? >> no, it is not going to fix congestion unless the city does managing construction projects. p

[applause] >> supervisor kim: good morning. thank you for your patience as we waited to get on line. welcome to the treasure island mobility management agency. alberto quintanilla is our clerk. i want to acknowledge sfgov tv for broadcasting the meeting. mr. clerk, can you please call the roll? [roll call] >> clerk: we have a quorum. >> supervisor kim: thank you so much. i will begin with the chair's report today. and i just want to highlight recently as we test out different technologies on treasure island that the metropolitan transportation commission, which i also sit on, effort to update the clipper transit fare payment system. clipper has made great strides in integrating bay area operator transit fares to a single fare card but the system is decades old and in need of renewal and enhancement. clipper 2.0 is a critical opportunity to achieve excellent customer service experience, bring technology to transportation payment and improve administrative effiency for operators and agencies including timma. as we move forward wi

house to be said might compare as last trip to north korea was a bit of a disaster by many accounts kim draw moon even snubbing compare there was a great deal of pressure for something tangible to come out of this one from the bows now have more hawkish people around him drawing bold moves national security advisor for example but it is striking in these tweets but it's still very diplomatic very respectful towards chairman kim and he says he still does want a summit to take place at some point in the future with us on skype from washington now bonnie glaser is the director for the china power project to the bipartisan center for security and international studies it's nice to have you with us bonnie what do you make first of all of the idea that president trump has put forward that some of this is down to china. when president trump has been increasingly frustrated with china and this is not the first time that he has blamed the chinese for slowing progress in the negotiations with north korea and there may be some truth to that accusation the chinese are actually adding in an advantag

officials hand delivering trump's letter to kim jong-un this weekend.orth korean side told cnn the regime believes there is a strong possibility of a second summit between the two later this year. john bolton said for now a visit from trump's top diplomat might work best. >> secretary of state mike pompeo is prepared to go back to north korea to meet with kim jong-un. we've proposed that in our most recent letter from the president to kim jong-un. the president is prepared to meet at any point. >> reporter: tonight analysts say there is significant pressure on president trump and mike pompeo to move the nuclear needle with north korea. >> the trump administration clearly is feeling some pressure. they need to see north korea take some tangible step toward denuclearization. everything they've done so far, whether it is blowing up a tunnel entrance on a nuclear test site -- or dismantling one missile engine test facility instrument, none of that goes to the heart of the matter. >> reporter: and the heart of the matter experts say is getting kim's regime t

he called the actions kind and said he's looking forward to seeing kim soon.t's the last part that has us -- well, both part have us asking questions but the last part have people wondering okay, does that mean a second summit? this is the same time that the secretary of state mike pompeo a admitted that north korea has shown little progress during denuclearization. let's bring in mark hertling. nice to have you. let's piece through this. the fact that the remains have been return is a very good thing. is it kind or is it just righting a wrong that she should righted a long time ago? >> we need to clear a couple things up. that's not the extent of the remains in north korea. there is an estimated 7500 remains unaccounted for. 5800 or so above the 38th parallel in north korea and that mission was stopped in 2005 because of the threatening actions of the kim regime so these 55 boxes are a good start. it will take months if not years to determine who these remains are and how they connect the dna samples and what is in the boxes so while it's a good start, it isn

. >> host: so only the kim family was allowed to have the contents of train number nine. what kind of things one on the train? >> guest: as far as i heard, like, i remember when i saw just a big pear and apple, it was really big, and one of the police and the person who was carrying that kind of stole one of them, i think, and gave to us, and they were like carrying special food that grew in a very special environment, and sugar is very rare thing, and i heard there was plenty get the sugar water and i think it was almost aing my for us -- a myth for us, how is this food being produced because those are not normal fooled we transport to pyongyang and was more food-related items. >> in your book "in order to live" you write that you would have done anything for a bowl of rice. >> guest: yes. >> host: anything. what does that mean? >> guest: now i mean the words where i mean salad. that's how i know i am being japanese word. the salad meant -- i was so offended, when i came to america that people say we pay money to buy this. i thought that's what rabbits eat. had to eat th

kim jong-un might come to the white house but kim jong-un recently executed agenda. we don't have to develop more nukes because we going to start developing nukes and that's what you get executed four. north korea has no intention of stopping the nukes. they have no intention of giving freedom to their people. so that is not the direction they're going to. i'm sure those politicians will keep the status quo that the people are suffering and the military will continue if we do not take action. >> host: yeonmi park, what are you doing today? >> guest: i'm a writer, and now i am running my own organization with my partner, my co-defector from north korea was actually at the state of the union that i'm trying to rescue my fellow defectors are trapped in china like myself was, that we rescue them to safety and we get information inside north korea so let the people inside north korea that they are slaves. and the rest of the world -- so that's what i do and i hope that i do know that. they change will not come from politicians. if ever diplomacy works, it will not work. t

president trumps historic summit with north korea's kim kim jong un at that summit called his military commanders off guard by agreeing to drop the drills the reversal by the pentagon comes amid a broader breakdown in diplomacy with north korea over its nuclear weapons program for. historic handshake between two former foes. in the months before their singapore some us donald trump and kim jong un traded insults and threats of nuclear war but the leaders pulled back from the brink to deliver a diplomatic spectacle as an unexpected concession from the u.s. . we will be stopping the war games which will save us a tremendous amount of money or unless and until we see the the future negotiation is not going along like it should. the u.s. military exercises with south korea have infuriated p.r. nyang for decades trumps decision to suspend them surprise both u.s. allies in the region and top u.s. military officials critics said he was handing kim a major symbolic victory without getting any concrete commitments that north korea would denuclearize since the june so most terms diplomatic gambl

even when they were handing a letter in singapore to deliver to kim, another was in the united states and mike pompeo for the bad attitude in the negotiations and so what you see and i think it's deliberate on the part of the north koreans is an effort in the way to drive wedge between the president and his own negotiators. kim thinks that president trump is scenario and well meaning and well intentioned and wants to have a good relationship but the pesky diplomats keep demanding that north korea do all these things to denuclear rise. it puts pompeo in a bad spot because he's the guy who has to deliver this deal and he's been forthright about saying he sees a long difficult negotiation ahead of the united states in north korea. . >> brennan: he acknowledged, he said, timeline is going to be up to chairman kim. the no denuclearation we've seen at the moment. we'll take a quick break. we have so much more to talk about. stay with us. >> dr. stanley: remember this: cannot change the laws of god. when he has visited you in some form of adversity and he brings you through that, that's like

what does that then communicate to chairman kim? >> well, a couple things. to president chi, in china, two targets of this communication. to china, we're serious, this is the president talking, i'm serious about negotiations with you and the tariffs and concerns we have with trade. and he is serious about that and he should be. to kim jong-un, it is this. we will negotiate with you, but it has to be sincere effort. we have to have evidence we're accomplishing something and if we don't have evidence of that, we'll slow this thing down. i think that is what the indications are here. the again, i'm optimistic having been in the area, having talked with the administration, with secretary mike pompeo, and others, i am optimistic, but this will take some time. >> harris: because the president just tweeted this, i want to make sure that we get to the news on this point, back to denuclearization. you and i had just talked about the fact we as a nation and they as a nation have to get on the same page with all this. does this indicate, because the president says, i f

supervisors ronen, fewer, kim and stefani. and i look forward to working with chair mandelman in scheduling the hearing. >> supervisor brown: thank you, madam president, wherever she is, and the chair, and madam clerk. i'm calling for a hearing today involving the san francisco municipal transportation agency to review training procedures, policy, and retention of current operators, which may be contributing to a shortage of operators and increased delays. i speak with people that are frustrated over the m.t.a. delays. families are distressed because they do not feel like they can depend on sfmta getting their kids to school on time. workers that have to decide between taking a chance that their bus will be on time or jumping into a ride-share and tourists that are perplexed that a transit system in a world-class city is unreliable. there may be extensive citywide delays that might have been avoided. muni riders have reportedly seen wait times increase by up to 40 minutes on lines, scheduled to have buses or trains arriving ev
