mr. smith. >> transparency is a lot of will go. as the committee considers proposals, i cannot help but think of the word that antonin scalia it wrote more than 30 years ago. when the supreme court was asked to consider the constitutionality of the independent counsel positions, this allowed for the appointment of an independent counsel to investigate and prosecute certain high-ranking government officials, justice scalia said frequently an issue of this sort will come before the court clad in sheep's clothing. this wealth comes as a wolf. so to today come their wolves lurking among the proposals in this consideration. as with so many things in life, the goals are good, the devil is in the details. when examining these details, i encourage the committee to keep in mind to considerations. one legal and one practical. each member of the committee has an independent duty to ensure themselves of the constitutionality of each reform and to ensure each reform actually promotes good government. let st

mr smith didn't just give up the fact that mr smith tried to get away that in and of itself didn't assure that his family would have to give him a funeral. motel surveillance video shows that shooting from a different angle, police also release cell phone video of the confrontation. officers michael miller, dina tran tran and chris sues opened fire officer tran, a six year department veteran, was among several officers who shot and killed another man a year ago. that man, stony ramirez was a person of interest in the shooting death of a homeless man, ramirez was killed after police say he, too rammed officers cars. would police policy bars officers from firing an imminent threat from something other than the car? but back in march, the chief said, that's not an ironclad rule. there are with him with every policy. there is exceptions. that attorney tells me he plans to sue hayward over the motel six shooting. both shootings i mentioned are still under review by the alameda county da's office, henry lee ktvu fox two news. tomorrow marks one year since the death of george floyd in minneapoli

mr. smith, are there callers in the queue for item number 3? >> yes, we have 41 people listening and 25 in the queue. >> clerk: please unmute the first caller >> caller: hi, i'm william jake, resident of district 8 for 28 years. i'm calling to support the police budget to hire and train more cops including foot beat and increased community policing. in all the time i've lived in san francisco i never felt less safe living and walking in the city. i'm talking about assaults, break-ins, vandalism and common close calls with aggressive disturbed people. and a lot of it is going on because lawbreakers are confident there'll be no serious consequences for their actions. it's too easy to break the law around here and not get caught. i'm it's only going to -- i'm afraid it's only going to get worse unless we have more police presence and increase this and not less. public safety is everything. our city can't continue to be so out of control, lawless and free for all. i ask you to please fund law enforcement and police academies, generously. thank you.

it is not the mr. smith washington and stays up all night and does something to go up against the establishment. this is about the tyranny of the minority, something that the founders never wanted, were very clear that they never wanted. they always wanted the majority to rule, not the super majority. they did not want the minority to be able to stop things, and this is a relic of the jim crow era. this is what southern segregation has used to stop civil rights. this is the same tool that mitch mcconnell wants to use to control the senate. so tomorrow we'll be having a national progressive down hall with senator padilla, corey bush, not just progressive but people across the caucus who know that the urgency that cornell talked about is what is at stake here. there is an urgency around policing and passing the george floyd justice in policing act. there is an urgency around voting rights, an urgency around immigration reform, around the $15 minimum walk, around democracy reform in hr-1. these are all bills th

just laid out including that really important history in texas, both miss adair attempt to vote, mr. smith spied to vote finally able to do so in 1944. and in that clip you played from the republican elections chair in the texas state house talking about the texas constitutional convection of 1875, after which you have a wave of jim crow voting laws throughout the state of texas. you have elections overturned, stolen and in some cases violently, like in the case of washington county, they produce such outrage that congressional committees and the united states congressman house, and in the senate took up the issue and proposed a federal elections law that would safeguard the right to vote for everyone who is electable, especially african americans who are being denied that right violently, that is in 1980, it passes the house and it is pending in the united states senate where it dies on the horns of a filibuster. really, you really questions about predicting what we are going to see if we do not get our act together this year. it will be 75 years until the voting-ites in 1965, under lyndo

mr. smith was clear about his body. he described it as the worst shape of my life.self and others is a good one. and his life journey has a clue about how he might approach it. something you and i might want to pickup, too. let me back up a second. body image is a tough subject. social media have made it much easier to build a feed of all the people whose bodies you wish you had. and the fitness business boomed through the pandemic with more of us trying to stay healthy from home. no one tells you that physique you're oogling online is to protect someone as fragile as you are. all you see is some influencer telling you how an alpha wolf takes no days off, or something like that. don't be fooled. they're figuring out just like everyone else is. just like will smith is. >>> the pandemic adds an angle to this, too. a british suicide prevention group surveyed 2,000 men. more than half said the pandemic had an impact on image. a fifth said they don't feel comfortable talking to anyone about it. guys have no trouble talking about what they want their bodies to be, but how
