Tase on Capitol Hill Senate lawmakers will hold a joint News Conference to update the public on its committees investigation into russian meddling in the 2016 election. This comes as the house intelligence committees probe continues to come under scrutiny. Former attorney sally yates who was fired by President Trump was set to testify yesterday before the house panel on the investigation. In a letter her attorney was warned by the Trump Justice Department last week that there was a limit to what she could say in her testimony. No problem with her testifying. To suggest in any way, shape or form that we stood in the way of that is 100 false. The controversy along with Republican Committee chair devin nunes secret meeting at the white house last week is adding to democrats claim that nunes cannot lead an impartial investigation. I like chairman nunes and worked well with him in the past but for the independence and credibility of this investigation, he should recuse himself and thats now a bipartisan call. One republican is also calling for that. Thats North Carolina representative walter jones. He is calling for an independent commission to probe russian interference in the u. S. Election. What was intended to be a conversation about current immigration issues turned into a heated outburst. Kpix 5s jackie ward is here. Reporter a lot of people showed up for this meeting and there was a lot of passion at last nights forum as some there welcomed the Trump Administrations stance on immigration while others were screaming against it.

Today a federal judge in hawaii will hear arguments on whether to extend his temporary block on President Trumps revised travel ban. Even if he doesnt put the ban on hold until the states lawsuit is resolved, the temporary block would remain until he rules otherwise. The order would temporarily ban travel to the u. S. From six muslim countries. Courts in maryland also blocked it earlier this month. The Trump Administration is asking for an appeal.

So this place is really been through a lot. Thats when a gas main blew up underground here in the crestmoor neighborhood killing 8 people. In the 6. 5 years since, this has been blamed on sloppy recordkeeping on the part of pg e and back channel deals.

On september 9, 2010, pg e learned a tragic lesson we can never forget. Reporter you may have heard these commercials pg e has been running in other parts of the companys mea culpa forced to run this admission of what happened for three months. So san bruno has heard a lot of apologies from pg e over 6. 5 years and i i think i can say that this one actually does begin to ring a little more true. We hope that this is the really truly the beginning of the transformation that needs to happen.
