. >> sean: and ted olsen is out with a new piece where he i'm places herself and how robert mueller's witch hunt can be setting up a massive constitutional crisis. sheryl atkinson called the collusion against trump and entire timeline. she breaks down every single key moment in this entire massive abuse of power scandal. we will refer to this throughout history. because it's been going on for 18 months. the mainstream media are finally starting to catch on and admit that what we've been reporting and what others on the show have been reporting and other people what we've been covering, we're being proven right. they have to admit it. look at this headline from "the washington post." "secret fbi source for russia investigation met with three trump advisers." a "usa today" report. it says -- by the way, even liberal cnn can't ignore all the facts, all the evidence. okay. it's taken them over a year. finally the media has missed the single biggest story in their lifetime. now it's a massive abuse of power. we first reported on this march 7, 2017 about fisa surveillance of the trump campa

my name is ted olsen and i'm a third generation san franciscan and sit on the division zero task force. -- sit on the division zero task force. i want to support the approval of this. we've made such progress with vision zero. i think what's really impressive about it is how the departments of the city have come together, acting on such and an important thing. especially how they've been using surveys, media, to conduct such a survey and gather community impressions. i took the survey and i'm sure many others did. there's much discussion in the community, i know it certainly has been on the market. it has been discussed about removing freeways and stuff like that. i commend division zero team and command your approval. >> supervisor peskin: thank you mr olson. seeing no other public comment, i will close public comment, i think you have one more commissioner thacommissioner tho solicit a vote from on the consent agenda. if you could please ask commissioner kim how she would like to vote on items 4-9? >> clerk: commissioner kim? >> supervisor kim: yes. >> supervisor peskin: on item eigh

we've seen a lot of top washington lawyers, ted olsen among them reportedly considered asked to come on to the white house team and say no. is it significant in your view that flood is considering doing this or seems to be signing on? >> reporter: yes. and my reporting is, and i'm sure others have as well, that he has met with the president in the oval office going back a few months. i was told he might have been considered for a different kind of role inside the white house, and so it is -- that was, of course, at a time when the cobb spot was filled. so this notion of flood being on the president's radar has certainly existed. why flood would choose to leave the firm, one would assume he would take a leave of absence, break ties with the firm. big firms do that with frequency when partners go from government service back to the private sector and so forth. you could argue from a legal point of view it's rich in opportunities for a loyal to test some of their skills, also fraught with a lot of problems, perhaps, but this is very significant, if the president has, in fact, been able

where also pleased to welcome back ted olsen, he has argued secure the cases and both private practicend for the government before the spring court, including his term as solicitor general from 2001 through 2004. one of his key cases is representing bush and bush fee gore, and we are pleased to have you back. where got to have you back. i'm where to start with understanding how broad or narrow this decision was. help people understand the decision what did the court find? that thee court found new york times and washington post not be restrained and advanced from publishing a prior strength, as it is known. burden,d, with a heavy the government has to overcome show real irreparable harm to the country, and the government failed to do that. that was the ruling of the court. showin addition to that ruling, there were nine separate opinions by members of the court. while they all agreed that prior restraints are difficult to obtain the vote on the case was and in favor of the times the justices ranged considerably in what they said about that from a modest victory to a broad one. thehe en
