within hours of learning of the wiener laptop, i assigned agents and analysts to follow up on that. within a day of getting that information that i got in touch with new york, determined that new york had not completed the processing and they were going to get back together when that occurred. so the notion that anything was back burnered is belied by the facted that literally in 24 hours of learning of that information, i assigned people that had nothing to do with the russia investigations to follow up on the matter. >> you've been given a chances. the gentleman from new york is recognized. >> mr. strzok, the investigation into possible trump-russian collusion has resulted in 23 indictments, correct? >> i don't know the number but it's sizeable. >> resulted in 18 individuals that have been indicted, true? >> again, i don't know the numbers. >> three corporate entities have been indicted in connection with the trump russian collusion investigation, right? >> i don't know. >> they have identify 75 different criminal acts, correct? >> i haven't tall led them up. >> there's been five

so with behaviorism the idea with computing it was a gear have heard about norbert wiener? the very earliest computer scientists they first generation with those ideas were shortly thereafter with the only working computers for giant noisy things. and he did some interesting things. one thing he did to turn around the way was initially asked described at a three stage process. punching holes in a paper cape into the imagination of the day. then you put them through the machine than it does whatever it does and then it has another one and if you are lucky you get an answer and that is it. but norbert wiener said there is a completely different way to think of the same idea that the computer is on all the time. and then responding to the world. kind of like a thermometer but also can control the air conditioner in lucky cases. so instead what if we thought of a computer as a complicated thermometer with memory and algorithms? so he came up with a term for this connection cyberis from the greeks to navigate in this context the computer is navigating reality and then again it b

he's last person on this matter. >> herbert wiener. i don't live in the neighborhood of eighth and richmond. but what can happen in in neighborhood can happen in mine. one of the problems i see is that how does the motorists benefit from this? i think this proposal stacked against the motorist. the next question i have is if these decisions are flawed and if they fail implementation, can they be reversed? i think bad decisions and bad implementation should be r eversed by this board and there's no proposal for doing i t. i agree with him on his statements. n into consideration and i hope it isn't rubber stamped and rammed through by this board. >> secretary boomer: one more public comment. >> donna parker. the represent 1000 people that signed a petition that kim to this -- came to this board. we are happy with this settlement. there's only few things missing that we could see. we were originally told they were going to be raised s idewalks on ninth avenue and anza for the school. i've noticed that those were taken out. but, all in all

i know because i worked with scott wiener at the time to craft this legislation. i'll read the legislation here, parts of it. it was to provide and expand the range of interesting food consumption opportunities for mobile food facilities in under served, that's a keyword, and less congested areas of the city. those are key points. regarding the under serves area, union square is certainly not under served by restaurants. we have 38 restaurants and caves within a two block area of this permit, including a pinkberry frozen yogurt, and this argument was used by public works in two recent food truck permits to deny them. the spice affair wanted to go into 46 geary, and another food truck was denied recently at 99 post, where there was two restaurants in the area. secondly, we're hardly a congested area. we are a cosmopolitan area. we figure that there are about 146,000 visitors -- 147,000 visitors throughout the year moving in union square. if you break it down by sensor, we have about anywhere between 14,000 and 20,000 pedestrians moving through the sidewalks every d

scott wiener (d-san francisco) "the most comprehensive and the strongest net neutrality protection ine united states."bay area state senator scott wiener -- has made net neutrality a major issue this legislative session. sen. scott wiener "ideally, we would have one national standard for net neutrality but that has not happened."his bill -- sb822-- along with state senator kevin de leon's sb460 - attempts to create a state standard. both bills were approved by the state senate earlier this year.but in the assembly.. the communications committee took out two key provisions in wiener's billtoday.. after weeks of negotiations.. today a compromiseasm. miguel santiago (d-los angeles) "we need to be able to tell these stories. we need to be able to empower people with information that is accurate." wiener says his compromise bill has the same protections as the version which passed in the senate - including a ban on internet providers from using their networks to give preference to selected websites and apps. the idea of net neutrality is that all consumer should have equal and open access

. >> clerk: herbert wiener is the last speaker to turn in a card on this subject. >> herbert wiener. i do approve the increase in transfer time because it reflects the difficulty of getting across town which is considerably different than 20 years ago. but one thing i call into question is the fare change for a single ride. now chariot charges $3. another point is, the part of a proposition aa that was passed at the poll was fare change was based on improvement of service delivery, and service delivery was spoefed to be 85%. -- supposed to be 85%. this has not been the case. so basically, what we're doing is we're paying for faulty service, and what's going to happen is there's going to be less ridership, people are going to be getting out of their buses into their cars, and basically, you're seeing a collapse. and one of my statements about the difference between muni and the titanic sinking, the titanic took oh, a little over two hours, but muni sinks eternally, eternally, eternally, to unforeseen depths over the years. [bell ringing]. >> so you better strongly consider raising the

quote unquote, strzok explained that the decision to seek a search warrant for the wiener laptop was known to many people beyond the mid year team and this raised a concern that this information could leak. is this statement from the ig's report true? >> yes. >> now, could you unpack that for us a little bit? first of all, you said according to the ig's report that the search warrant for the wiener laptop was known to many people beyond the mid year team. could you explain whether any of those people would be in the new york field office? >> so the -- my recollection is that the investigation of the case, new york field office, southern district of new york or maybe eastern district. >> and so the people to whom you're referring included people in the new york field office; correct? >> that's correct. >> you had concerns about that are -- about their actions if director comey did not inform congress about this laptop. >> i did not have concerns about new york. my concerns were just general that the more people who are aware of something, the greater chance that it leaks out somehow,

i'd like to discuss a little bits of the wiener laptop discovery. you have explained there was a significant delay from the time that information was discovered in which obviously hundreds of thousands by your own words, hundreds of thousands of e-mails were discovered potentially pertinent to the hillary clinton e-mail investigation. there was a delay there. you have explained in the past that the delay was caused because you were too busy. what were you doing during october 2016 that caused you to be so busy? >> sir, i wouldn't call it a significant delay. i don't think it was because i was too busy. the answer to your question in the fall of 2016, i was the deputy director of the counter intelligence -- >> what were you doing? >> i was busy overseeing thousands of cases. every espionage case in the fbi, every -- >> were you involved -- >> and you ask a question oh. >> i'm going to reclaim my time. were you involved in the russia investigation? >> that was one of the many -- >> so you were involved. >> so the clinton investigation was assigned to

i want to thank assembly member tinge as well as senator wiener and chu as well as the folks at lyft and uber who really, i think, want to turn the page and become a part of the solution and finally, it wouldn't have happened without my chief-of-staff whom i am profoundly thankful and madam president, i would like to make a motion to table item number 37. >> all right. table item 37. >> i'd like to tank my co sponsor kim, ronan, yee, fewer and mandelman. >> it's been seconds by supervisor 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

followed herbert wiener and then juanita washington. >> i live in the richmond. i'm know you struck item number 12 from the agenda. i want to make a comment because the cpuc had proposed e liminating whatever taxes they were collecting or fees they were collecting from the tnc. from some of the transportation network companies. that in a way that maybe okay because who knows what they were doing with it and what they are collecting it for. the city of san francisco or mta had to create a position kind of like the curb monitor because all these services taking up curb space, whether it's lyft, uber or carryouts. the city having to spend money to monitor this activity. i think it's totally appropriate to add a tax category for these companies. i support that. even if the puc stop collecting fees. supervisor peskin wrote a letter about this. >> next speaker please. >> herbert wiener, juanita washington. >> this is so timely. i'm going to the airport on thursday, to city of chicago. i tried to reserve a super shuttle. it's $45 a ride. about four months ago, it was $1

saturday, if you can't wait that long to see a wiener, you can follow carlos dane or twitter. >> no oneer week than a rookie truck driver still rough around the edges crossing the manatee bridge in florida, florida? they within haywire, florida is unclear if the truck malfunctioned or if he was the on bath salts like every else. you should see the lot lizard who of riding shotgun. driver said to be okay. he said if he could do it over, only thing he would change is the how is my driving bumper sticker on the back of the rig. phone will not stop ringing. topic 4. the iconic mtv game show remote control, had a category called dead or canadaian, you guessed if a shoul is celebrity of the n real life or from living in canada, they listed utah senator orrin hatch as deceased. there he is very much alive and very much sexy. his office shared photo of the 84-year-old senator doing all kinds of living people stuff like reading news painer newspad signing bills ans. this is not only time google made an embarrassing error, last week they listed show wolf as a comedian. and topic 5. nobody is luck

first of all, you said according to the ig's report that the search warrant for the wiener laptop was known to many people beyond the midyear team. could you explain whether any of those people would be in the new york field office? >> so the -- my recollection is that the investigation of the crimes in the case of mr. wiener was handled out of the new york field office out of the southern district of new york, or maybe the eastern district. >> the people you're referring included people in the new york field office, correct? >> that's correct. >> you had concerned about their actions if director comey did not inform congress about this wiener laptop. >> i did not have concerns about new york. my concerns were just general. that the more people who are aware of something, the greater chance that it leaks out somehow. but those concerns were not specific in my mind to new york. >> okay. let me ask you about this. in a report in that same report, attorney general loretta lynch recalls a conversation with then director comey in the final days of the 2016 election. quote/unquote, he, refe

so regarding scott wiener's legislation, how did you determine that this is a less congested neighborhood? less congested? i personally walk on that block regularly as my wife works on the corner, and you can barely get through now. >> so i think the -- the intent of less congested, there's no -- so we follow the rule of the code or what the code says, and that's not specifically in the code, that's in the legislation under the findings for the reason for the code, so that's interpretive, and there's no real reason to say what's congested and what's not congest zbld so why is it in there. >> that's in the legislation. >> that scott wiener did. >> it's not in the legislation -- >> so you're not subject to the legislation? >> i can clarify. >> okay. >> the findings -- >> you're lucky. s.o.s. >> the findings of the ordinance which proceed the actual operative language of the code provision are not the code, and they're interpretive, as he just said. there's a reason for the legislation, but if they don't put it in the operative section of the code, it's not legally binding on the department?

and one note with regard to wiener, he has the same concerns that have been announced by some of the opponents but he did vote "yes yet just to move it forward and not necessarily because he supports it. >> supervisor fewer: okay. thank you very much, miss lynch. >> thank you for considering this. this is a key and critical change in california's energy policy. basically it's going to repeal two important energy crisis protections that we got in in 2001. one was that california appoints the board of directors that runs the grid and our electricity markets. and two was that it's a california public benefits corporation. both of those key protections will be repealed almost immediately. now the proponents say that it doesn't matter, we're under federal law and we'll be under federal law tomorrow. the difference is who enforces and interprets that federal law. and if we didn't think that it mattered who did that we wouldn't care that ryan zenke with the interior and scott pruitt is at e.p.a. because all they're doing is enforcing and interpreting federal law. and this would cede our pow

>> yes. >> yes. >> can you explain how that of thed the revelation word for wiener's laptop? >> you would have to ask director comey that. some of itiscussion, was in the context of reporting from mr. giuliani, talking about connections to your. new york. a lot of people were aware of it and their concerns were about the number of folks. my recollection is that mr. comey was aware of those concerns. i was not privy to discussions he had with the attorney general. with regard to mr. giuliani, on october 25, rudy giuliani promised a pretty big surprise coming up in the campaign. 28, giuliani claimed to be in contact with former agents and a few active agents who don't want to identify themselves. let me make sure i have this right. therewas a concern that was a hatred toward secretary clinton in the new york field office. at the same time mr. giuliani says he is having contact with agents, active agents. can you give us your take on this and your comments? >> i recall that comment. i recall it caused me a lot of concern. >> why did it cause you concern? >> while it is certainly

the direct talks between putin and frump that they can reach some kind of handshake agreement both wieners like and they prefer such kind of agreements trumpets the businessman put in with the so-called put side on culture and russia where an unofficial agreements are much more important than the ratified and signed treaties and they can agree they can agree basically or on iran america wants to center right now very big pressure on iran russia could kind of maybe stand aside and. be officially but not intervene and for putting the most important thing is ukraine we will talk about those issues one by one. because when it comes to the arms control deal the new strategic arms reduction treaty which expires in two thousand and twenty one what's the likely scenarios are we going to see both parties agree on how to move forward. there are two likely scenarios one on which president clinton raised the last year on the telephone and print president trump didn't know what it was but he consulted his advisors and they said all that was obama you don't want to do that we may have moved on from that

when norbert wiener look at this in a completely different way to think about the same ideas which ister would be on all the time and sensing the world and be responding to the world like if the monitor also controlling a heater or like the kids with the air conditioner. but did what if we thought of a computer as a complicated barometer with memory and algorithms? he came up with a term of this conception it is called cybernetic cybercomes from greek to navigate so in this concept the computer is navigating reality to see where it has drifted and then take it back to where it wants it to go. so that is cybernetics. there is an amazing book that robert wrote probably in the late 40s but still date thing about networking in december early. one of the very earliest descriptions that ever existed what you have a computer watching a human being? and measures the towns that come out and what it looks and then provides a me the images without. could a heater -- a computer gradually start to control a person just like in mr. skinner's box box? couldn't that become the automated behaviorist?

maybe it was humabedin, anthony wiener, one of their latops. they found those emails there. and of urse peter strzok helping the woman that 1ought oughto win toeet million to nothing for president, wow, that was not good news for people like him. that wanted to help hillary. but they couldn't help the fact that f.b.i. agents, when investigating something else, find all these missing 30,0 or and ils on this laptop they've got the information, at least forome weeks, maybe two, maybe three, maybe four, we're not sure, but th had fnd this information, so comey was in a different, he was in a difficult situation. he wanted hlary to win, no question. did not want donald trump to win , he never did like trump, never has, apparently, things he's said and do. . so what could he do that would use the least amount of roblems f hillary clinton? there was a thrt, apparently, that f.b.i. agents were gointo go public, that they had found these missing emails, and that comey w blocking reopening the investigation now that we have all these emails. andf.b. agen who are rigeous, unlike peter

i went to sacramento with supervisor rafael mandelman to support senator scott wiener's bill, sb 245.he is a support of sb 1045, along with other members of the board of supervisors, and it passed through committee unanimously. i am hopeful -- i had a conversation with the governor about it. i'm hopeful it gets through. it got through the senate. hopefully, it'll get through the assembly, and if the governor signs the legislation, he would have to opt in for the purposes of using this tool here locally. and i'm feeling good about this particular legislation taking effect here in san francisco based on the support from the board of supervisors. maybe not all members of the board will support it, but i think that there's sufficient support to get it enacted here. >> in terms of emergency preparedness, were you just briefed or were you -- [inaudible] >> yes. [inaudible] >> i didn't hear the last part. [inaudible] >> so it's not a rumor. ann kroneberg announced last week that she had plans to retire. as far as briefing, yes, there was definitely a conversation about a briefing, but also,

wiener's laptop to someone else? you asked to look into it. >> the first reason i did it because the director told me to. it's a top priority, and the second thing was, yes, when you look at the allocation of resources based on threats to national security, the russia investigation was a much greater impact than a mishandling of classified information investigation. >> the first reason is the director told you to? >> yes, sir. >> thank you. how frequently does the fbi engage in counterintelligence operations against foreign powers? >> every day, all the time. >> yes, sir. >> how frequently does the fbi investigate a possible conspiracy between a possible president and a campaign and a hostile power? >> first time i could remember in my lifetime. >> is it fair to say we're in unprecedented territory? >> speaking from my experience, it's fair. >> speaking from your experience. >> from my experience in the fbi. >> yes. >> yes, sir. >> and is it fair to say that our country faced and is still possibly facing a grave thre

the proposer of the legislation, supervisor wiener, who has my greatest respect as well, said especially union square is an example of an area that doesn't apply to where a food truck should be. so -- and that's -- that's why i'm so furtive on the subject. it has nothing to do with applauding you guys who have done such a great job building a business and everything around that, it's just this is the law, and i feel that we really have to uphold it. and i was further encouraged that the business improvement district offered you a place in maiden lane, which is not -- which is not a bad offer, and i would probably take them up on it. so it's not like you're shut out. so that's -- i just wanted to complete that -- that loop for myself, and thank you for hearing me on that. >> president fong: do you have a motion? >> commissioner swig: no, i'll let somebody else who was here first do it. and oh, my aching back. so it would be a motion to deny the appeal -- >> president fong: well, it wound up to be a struggle. the motion was to grant the appeal and condition the permit on their usage only o
