Reporter two former inmates and their attorneys claim officials at the santa rita jail engaged in barbaric, systematic behavior that denied female inmates medical attention, warm clothing, regular meals and worse.

They are telling me that their flight to los angeles is not canceled but they are telling me they were supposed to go to newark yesterday and they wound up staying at a Hotel Overnight and confirmed something we all sort of know. When you have a big storm like this, planes and cruise are not where theyre supposed to be. What you wind up seeing ripples throughout the system. Its only five of 7 am. Look at the top of the board and you can see flights from new york are already canceled. We can expect to see more of that as the day progresses. We are already seeing 19 canceled flights both outbound and inbound. Flights from boston, jfk and newark are impacted. A halfdozen outbound flight to jfk and newark are also canceled. We are expecting those cancellations and delays to pile up. If yesterday is any indication. In all, sfo saw close to 100 canceled flights yesterday. In about an hour we are expecting to hear from the faa about how the day is shaping up. This means if you are traveling, check in before you leave the airport, even if your flight is not to the east coast. As we heard from those pilots we spoke to earlier, even if your flight isnt to the east coast, you could experience delays because your plane or the flight crew we not be where they are intended. As always, the best advice is to contact your airport beforehand. Go on your phone, go to the app and try to find out if your flight is delayed or canceled. We will keep an eye on how things shape up at sfo throughout the morning. We will also call around to the other airport to see how things are looking for all the airports in the bay area. This could be another rough day for travelers. Sure with that ripple effect. Christien kafton at sfo. Thank you.

Reporter some things in the book seem almost demonstrably untrue like a claim that trump did not know who former speaker of the house john boehner was despite mentioning him on several occasions and even playing golf together. But theres also a narrative in these pages that mentally, trump just isnt all there.
