Such a very interesting time after eight years tonight, the obamas will spend their final night at the white house and tomorrow night, donald trump will occupy that home.

That is a big part of this story. Weve been speaking today with a number of people from the bay area who have come to washington to make their voices heard, whether for or against. But also weve run into some officials from the bay area, including the mayor of san jose who is not here because of the inauguration. He joined mayor ed lee and a number of other bay area mayors. I spoke to him a while ago and spoke about where we are as a nation and what hes witnessing here in washington. As a region, we can show the country that ideological differences dont mean that we have to have divided communities, that we can tackle challenges together. Would you like to see more of that at the National Level . We certainly would. I know theres a different dynamic that works inside the beltway than at home. Frankly, im in love with local government.

Reporter here in one antioch neighborhood, Police Believe teenagers are calling in bogus orders and then lying in wait.

The first of two drivers robbed on two consecutive nights at the same address in one antioch neighborhood. They took my money and my the pizza and they tried to get my phone but i didnt give it to them. Reporter that was monday night. The next night, tuesday, it happened again. This time, to a driver delivering chinese takeout to the same address on swallow way. As they approached the door, several men jumped out of bushes, beat and robbed him. Some group of people used our home address to order takeout. Reporter this woman says her family lives in the house near where both attacks occurred. It is very disturbing for the neighborhood because people no longer feel safe in their home. Reporter now police say they are warning delivery drivers in the area to be aware of their surroundings. Think twice about how youre going to do your deliveries . Yeah, it makes me think twice about it. Ive got to be a little more cautious and careful.

Whats being done to keep you safe. Plus wrapping things up. President obama spent his very well, this has been a rough week for oakland sports fans. First, the raiders officially filed relocation papers to move to las vegas. They need the votes of 34 of 42 League Owners to make the move. Meanwhile, ronnie lott and the Fortress Group released this statement that said, we are in this game and we are playing to win. Virtually all of the media reports about the raiders relocation seemed to indicate this is a foregone conclusion, vegas is gone and this is going to be their home. Conspicuous in all of this has been ronnie lott. We asked why and the answer is lotts group has been advised to stay quiet, let the vegas group f fizz out on its own. There are a number of red flags in that vegas proposal. Among them, projections that over 20,000 fans would fly into vegas for a threenight stay for each and every home. Think about this. 20,000 fans are going to fly in to watch the raiders play in jacksonville or tennessee or buffalo or detroit . For the next 30 years . Other issues, the involvement of casino owner may still be in the deal when nfl ratings are declining as we speak and the idea that oakland is a better market to be in and another relocation on top of rams and chargers is a bad idea.

So within the first 100 days, i expect that he worked to secure our borders, to build our economy and to replace obamacare with something that works for everyone. So im hoping that if things from washington change for the better and california citizens and residents see that, they are going to maybe give republicans here and closer to home another chance at the next election.

And its only been like that a few times before where youve been on the boat and all of a sudden everything kind of crashed and all the drinks and everything was spilling everywhere.

Tomorrow im staying home. Im not going to try to attempt the ferry. Reporter officials are hoping to let passengers know if any routes are canceled and if they instead will have bus bridges in place.

Millions of americans may lose their health care coverage. And benefits for worker who is get Health Insurance interest their employers. Michael finney has that story. Theres a lot at stake here. Almost 80 of americans dont think theyd benefit from the Affordable Care act, obamacare. Apparently, many dont understand all that it provides. If the act is passed entirely, vaccines would not be required to be covered by law and a cap on benefits would no longer be illegal. Obamacare also requires coverage for workers children up to the age of 26. Repeal might not take away all of these benefits, any of these benefits. Even if it did, employers could still provide them. But for now, those are the benefits that are on the chopping block. The Consumer Financial Protection Bureau is continuing its crackdown on illegal overdraft fees. By law, banks may not charge for overdraft protection unless a customer specifically opts in for the overdraft protection. Overdraft purchases are simply declined.
