of fellow metro mayors group? course, fellow metro mayors group? in greater manchester, a high percentage of people were working in warehouses or in manufacturing or other things. the worry we had, and it was one i shared with the mayor of liverpool city region, the workplace guidance was not strong enough. the regulation said people should keep a two metre distance possible. where possible. we were inundated with complaints from distribution centres, warehouses across the north west, both of us, people saying their workplace was not safe. if you had more notice, would that have helped? if we had been involved earlier, and we could see how the thinking was building towards regulations or new messages to the public, we would have at least been ready and told our own system how to get ready to implement it.

[applause] >> thank you, mayor. let's give one more hand to the mayor. [applause] next up, i would like to first announce because it's almost big game season, go gears assembly member phil. there is no one more person that has done for the asian community than assembly member. no words can express how grateful we are for what you've done to china town and. thank you. it's my pleasure to bring up to the stage assembly member, phil, alumni of the goenld bears. [applause] >> yes, and big game week, go bears. i'm looking at briansinger i think he'll be there probably with his family on the other side. but, i think our mayor said it really best, in that this project standing behind us does not happen if not for annie's leadership, the self-help board, alan your help. it does not happen without the mayor's leadership, the supervisors leadership, making sure that working together as a city that we can do this together. it does not happen without the state, and it demonstrates, annie, your extraordinary ability to make something out of nothing. this has been an

to the mayor.ly, with respect to the information now, knowing that multiple search warrants were executed against his chief fund-raiser. so, they would always be interested in to see who's burning up the mayor's phone, or who could reach out to. or, given the execution of those previous search warrants, that they, then, we're able to obtain additional, credible, verifiable, and corroborated evidence, directly related, back to the mayor. this is why they executed the search warrants against the mayor of the city of new york. i agree with mr. jackson, a search warrant is a far cry from an arrest warrant, but let me be clear. given the rules of engagement in trying to initiate this type of open investigation against a sitting elected official, you need to have a lot of good evidence against that individual, to be able to implement the most intrusive measure, and that is, an execution of a search warrant. >> a last point for you joey here, the idea, not damning evidence against that, but that there is

they didn't give the mayor the opportunity to hand them over. they didn't say, hey, can you please come on down to the station. by the way, you are a former, i think, captain, you know how to get to the station. they seized them in this base. why do you think there was a drastic step in trying to get them? >> so laura, good evening, let me put on my defense cap in addressing your question. you know, it could be that there's nothing nefarious about it. there's a lot -- it could be an optics point of view. the government has to be fair. and in the event, for example, you give a heads up, you can have the discussion, as you did to start you show, wait a minute, there's a disconnect, why do they go running into mar-a-lago to take donald trump's things but the mayor they allow him to cooperate, they allow him to when he feels like it to hand things over. so i think it could be an optics issue. the government, we have a very robust federal government. the fbi is very adept at doing what they do, and they made the determination that they would get a se

thank you, ma'am mayor. and concrete before i've been a preacher all my life and to the consul generally i'm excited to be here preliminarily to illustrate to talk about how this bridge representatives our connections between two communities and time is trying to separate us and managed to stay today an example of this. the association and steve will do a great documentary between those two communities. many, many years ago, i was invited to be on panel of um, that commemoration of the japanese when we were sent away to the camps i didn't know why i was invited but went because of japantown called they and i was so grateful there was a elder woman that talked about the day they were leaving she said of the only people that seem to miss they're leaving where black people in the philadelphia more today they left the only people that showed up to say goodbye were the black christian folks from the fillmore and brought brown patricia of chicken and that's the way we used to travel across country because of, of c

tell us more about how the mayor is connected to this investigation. it seems like a pretty dramatic step. >> reporter: it is an extraordinary development, jim. absolutely. it's just coming to light now though. my colleagues reporting that he was initially approached by fbi agents on monday evening which is when the seizure happened. fbi agents approaching the mayor asking that he give them his phones and his ipad and according to a spokesperson he immediately did. important to remind viewers this is just happening days after his chief fundraiser was -- at least her home was raided by federal authorities in brooklyn. the main focus of this investigation right now seeking to determine if the mayor's 2021 campaign potentially conspired with a local construction company to receive foreign funds to put those in the campaign coffers, which would certainly be legal. essentially, straw contributors. we should mention the mayor since news of that investigation came to light maintains he holds his campaign to the highest standard and in a statement that his cam

the fbi seized new york mayor eric adams' phones. agents approaching the mayor on the street to get the devices. the mayor of the country's largest city responding tonight. >>> plus, the rock for president? dwayne johnson says both parties want him to run for president. and tonight "outfront" is learning he wasn't kidding. let's go "outfront." >>> good evening, i'm brianna keilar in for erin burnett. "outfront" tonight, we have breaking news. new explosions over gaza, and this video of an intense fire fight, flares lighting up the sky, our nic robertson on the border with gaza telling us this usually means ground troops are on the move. this assault comes as northern gaza's overcrowded hospitals are now bearing the brunt of israel's intense strikes. the head of a pediatric hospital telling cnn they're completely surrounded. he says there are tanks outside the hospital, and they inside cannot leave. that is raising new fears that the lives of vulnerable patients are at risk. according to the palestinian ministry of health, which relie

now, the mayor and his folks through a lawyer, his lawyer telling us that basically the mayor is cooperating in this investigation and that he's going to continue to cooperate in this investigation. but the question obviously is if he's cooperating, why did the fbi need to take this step in seizing his phones? and jim, this is something that is certainly very significant. the mayor's folks denying that he's done anything wrong and they say they're going to continue to cooperate in this investigation. >> yeah, some very big questions being raised this evening. shimon prokupecz, thank you very much for that. i suspect you'll be busy on this for sometime. >>> let's bring if our legal experts to discuss. elie honig, to shimon's point, what he was just saying a few moments ago, what do we know about prosecutors and what they have to establish in order to get a search warrant to go up to the mayor and ask for his devices? i mean, right on the spot. that is wild. >> yeah, jim, so in order to get a search warrant, prosecutors have to establish probable cause that a federal crime was committed and th

the governor stole this idea from me and other big city mayors because during that time, you know, mayors were really leading the way during this global pandemic. and we had to completely empty, empty many of our shelters because of the congregate living situation stations. and it was necessary for us to get more creative and find other ways in which we could help get people housed. we went into a situation where we were able to bring people together and work with our hotels and to house people. it was a process and it was one that we were trying to move quickly on despite our city's bureaucracy. we were able to get a lot of folks housed and more importantly, it was very expensive. and we asked the governor for support it. and that's what we got with project homekey. we got an opportunity to apply for resources and to get the folks who own these buildings to consider selling these projects, to selling these buildings to us and san francisco because of how good we are at paperwork, we were able. to get $212 million for five projects, including the diva. and when i think about not just what

she is our very own, ted lasso, the mayor of san francisco, london breed. >> mayor london breed: thank you, phil. and i will start the use for a skate park rather than a supervisor meeting is a better use! but u.n. pla is a park and a place meant for people to enjoy themselves in so many different ways. before there was technology and cell phones and everything else you can think of, there is been skating and chess and yes, checkers, i know checkers was not on the list but hopefully one day we'll get it out there soon. the ability for people to come together in these spaces and to have these opportunities, this is what bringing community together is all about. yes, it meant a bit of a change for the farmrs market. but i'm so happy that the farmers market is closer to city hall. so thank you to the folks who are part of the farmers market and the people who continue to support the farmers market that is just opened today just in case you want to get fresh vegetables and fruit. but here we are, today and i want to say to phil, thank you so much. let me tell you, he and i have been having

the mayor herself. if there is a conversation about fares, about parking meter hours, the mayor intervenes, that's a very very clear thing that happens. that's what this calls out. any attempt to attempt to describe it any other way is misleading. but at the end of the day, does not in any way jeopardize any future funding. it simply says, it's easy to make the easy decisions and hard to make the hard decisions. i'm happy to take public comment now, mr. chair. >> if there are any members of the public that would like to comment on this charter amendment, please line up to your left, my right. first speaker. >> speaker: good afternoon, i'm a resident of district 1. >> can you pull that microphone, thank you. >> speaker: good afternoon, i'm awedly i'm a resident of district 1, i'm concerned that the charter amendment will affect the ability to raise revenue for certain revenue measures. this charter will introduce us a single paint of failure that affect the function and and quite frankly our transit syst

now, that doesn't mean that the mayor has done anything wrong. but that's the standard that the court will consider before it grants a search warrant and authorizes, in this case, the federal government to enter the premises of the fund-raiser or to seize, copy, and take information from the mayor's personal electronic devices. >> and i'm glad you made that point. just because they were able to obtain a search warrant doesn't mean that he's done anything. there's a lot we still don't know. what are they looking for, do you think, on these devices? >> well, as i understand from reading the news, which is obviously -- it would appear, according to the news, that they are looking for information related to fundraising in the mayor's 2021 campaign. i think you read as i read that there are allegations that non-americans who were not eligible to donate, straw party donors, that is individuals who were citizens of the united states to make contributions to the campaign and presumably reimburse those american citizens for making those contributions. the

the mayor said nothing about it. counsel who was there, one of his lawyers, said don't draw any inferences and don't jump the gun. and then 72 hours later, all of this finally came out. so he was in front of the press corps knowing full well his phones and other devices had been seized, that things jumped up a step. the mayor has hired a pretty high powered law firm to represent his interests. things are moving pretty quickly. but what we've heard mostly from is it i hall, hey, there is nothing to see here. >> let's talk about congress. we are now less than a week away from a potential shutdown again because of lack of funding. speaker johnson has had the gavel for a couple of weeks now. what is on the line for him? and i wonder if he has enough good will to get to if necessary another continuing resolution, another 15, 30 days if democrats are willing in the senate to try to work out a day. >> well, look, he is in the same position as his predecessor and that is not a good thing. there is a lot of chaos going on fra
