In an interview with the christien Broadcasting Network at the white house, the the president said russian president Vladimir Putin was rooting for Hillary Clinton to win the presidency. U. S. Intelligence services have repeatedly contradicted that claim. Meanwhile, lawmakers on both sides of the aisle continue to voice their concerns over donald trump, jr. s meeting with a russian lawyer who promised to provide dirt on clinton. Potentially there could be four or five different statutes most of which deal with whether or not you can solicit or receive anything of value from a foreign national. Cbs news has learned special Counsel Robert Mueller is looking into whether the trump campaigns digital operation overseen by his soninlaw Jared Kushner coordinated with russian operatives to spread fake news stories.

Slowmoving storms are causing severe problems in the midwest. The weather systems have caused major flooding in states like wisconsin.

This warning comes after more than a decade of the Oakland Police department having major issues. The latest scandal with an underaged prostitute seems to have pushed this judge over the edge. In september, 2015, the Police Officer committed suicide and left a note describing how other officers were having sex with a minor. The Oakland Police department didnt tell the court about the note. So six months later when the court find out about it, an independent investigation was ordered in which it found the department, quote, defective. John burris is an attorney for the plaintiffs. After years on this case, he is remaining cautiously optimistic. I hope this is as i said in the court, this is deja vu all over again, meaning that we have had many hearings over 17 years with the Police Chiefs good faith intention would come before the court and tell them all the great things they were going to do and then nothing happened.

The Nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office estimated the original version would have left 22 Million People uninsured. Some moderate gop senators worry steep cuts to medicaid would devastate their constituents while more conservative lawmakers feel it doesnt go far enough in dismantling obamacare. Without medicaid funding, these hospitals which are already financially strapped would mostly go out of business. I think a large part of the frustration in our caucus is that this bill no longer is repeal and they are being asked to vote for something that we never promised. Majority leader Mitch Mcconnell says he hopes to have a cbo score on the new bill next week and bring it to the floor for debate shortly after.

The permit also requires one Security Guard for every 50 guests there were only two guards for hundreds of guests. Later today well learn more about a plan for a controversial med Marijuana Dispensary. Anne makovec explains why some Community Members are furious about the idea. Reporter right now, there are no medical marijuana dispensaries here in the outer sunset. And the storefront is here behind me. That would all change if this proposal goes through. This used to be a pharmacy here in noriega but theres a proposal to turn it into a Marijuana Dispensary. No, no, no neighbors came out swinging against this plan at a recent Community Membership. They have been collecting signatures against it. It comes from the former mayor of Oakland Jean Quan and her husband to turn this into a pot shop and chinese Medical Clinic called the apothecarium. Its really something we just dont want in our neighborhood. We would like to not have it in our neighborhood. Reporter but the owners of the proposed apothecarium say that theres a lot of misunderstanding in the community. This would be the citys First Chinese owned medical marijuana dutchess right now, there are 38 dispensaries in the city. But again, none of them here in the sunset district. Come january, its going to be legal to sell recreational pot in the city. All around california. So thats certainly going to be another part of the conversation when this goes in front of the Planning Commission today. We should learn more about the sand mining in the california bay. The California Coastal commission came to an agreement with cemex to stop taking sand north of marina in monterey county. If the agreement is approved at todays hearing, cemex will cap it at 240,000 tons a year for the next three years. It will completely stop operations by the end of 2020. A sunnyvale companys latest Drone Technology is taking selfies to some new heights. The handsfree device is called the air dog and it follows your every move. The air dogs tracks your location from the air using a bluetooth wristwatch. It keeps the camera pointed at you the whole time its flying. But the air dog is in a gray area of law. The faa requires a line of sight of the drone at all times and you must be able to take control of it at a moments notice. Experts recommend using it far away from people and airports. This douglas dc3 is on track to be the oldest aircraft to fly around the world. It kicked off its tour in geneva in march. It passed through oakland yesterday with astronaut mark kelly hopping aboard. The aircraft is scheduled to complete its journey in switzerland. I have been studying for my drone license. Next year my pilots license. Got a lot on your list. I took hours of lessons before flying. I liked it. I couldnt afford to continue it. Im ready to do it. Im going to save my lunch money. I dont think we should hop in that plane quite yet. Why do you say that . Because i have seen you drive. [ laughter ] i have seen you park in the parking lot. You drive 70 miles an hour in the parking lot thats fake news 5 Miles Per Hour lets talk about faster speeds. But below the limit. We have a big accident. This is in the napa junction. Hey, kids, all right. [ laughter ] pipe down over there im trying to talk traffic this is a sig alert northbound 29 at tower road and overturned mail truck blocking both northbound lanes. So we have speeds that are below 20 Miles Per Hour. This is a tough ride for anyone trying to get in and out of napa this morning. Just a heads up if you know someone who travels this route, give them a call. Let them know. They dont want to go 29. Heading to the Richmond San Rafael bridge, looking okay. We are seeing a few cars starting to back up over at the toll plaza there. Five minutes to the west end of the bridge. But reports of what was a possible car fire looks like its not but may be blocking lanes on 80 right at richmond parkway. At the bay bridge toll plaza, slow, stop, go in the yellow under 25 minutes across the span. We have had a number of problems along the bay bridge as well as 101, once you get into the city. So do expect some delays if you are heading in that direction. Thats a check of your traffic. Lets check in with roberta now on the forecast. We were seeing a little bit of clearing around the bay and now its filled in with that very deep marine layer roughly about 1,000 to 1200 feet deep. We could still see the port of oakland, the bright lights there, also the estuary of alameda. So the visibility is not hampered. But the faa usually doesnt check in with us until 6 00 and tell us that theres airport delays. Right now, im thinking theres a good strong possibility of that at sfo. This filled in very quickly. We could see the east bay from sutro tower, nothing but gray skies now. So the visibility i would say right now at sutro tower 900 feet, ceiling looks like its down to 900.
