castro. >> i feel excitement here all the time. just look around. >> the highlight of the weekend will be sunday's parade. san francisco pride executive director suzanne ford says this year's theme is queer joy is resistance. >> and they are feeling it and they are frightened. and i think, quite frankly, they're a little paralyzed. >> ford says the lgbtq community is facing increasing hostility, fending off attacks from some politicians, as well as from those trying to take away hard fought for rights. that's why, ford says it's more important than ever for people to come out this year and celebrate pride. >> we are not going to allow the people that are standing in opposition to lgbtq rights to take our joy away. >> now, this block party is set to go until 8:00 tonight. so, larry, julian, if you got some time after work, you want to head down, be sure to check it out. i'm live in san francisco. tim johns, abc seven news. >> drag us out to front street. tim. we appreciate it. thank you so much. well, keeping with the theme of inclusivity here this afternoon, mayor larry proclaimed today gay american

to last. julian. >> perfect forecast indeed. thank you so much, sandhya. abc seven once again the exclusive broadcast partner of the san francisco pride parade. you can watch it live sunday morning starting at 1030 right here on abc seven and wherever you stream abc seven news. >> celebration in the castro district this morning to honor the legacy of late civil rights leader harvey milk. san francisco mayor daniel lowry was flanked by local leaders and dignitaries announcing the redevelopment of the harvey milk memorial plaza at market and castro. it is moving forward. the mayor says the new plaza will ensure the next generation knows exactly who harvey milk was, what he stood for, and why he still matters today. the project's design is set to be completed this year, with construction starting next year scheduled to be done by 2028. harvey milk's name no longer graces a ship in the u.s. navy today. defense secretary pete hegseth announced. the ship is now named the usns oscar peterson. naval congressional medal of honor recipient. hegseth says he ordered the

renaming to take politics out of naming ships. this ship, known as a replenishment oiler, was honored or named in honor of milk, a navy veteran back in 2016. milk's nephew described this move as a call to action. >> okay, let's get out to the east bay now, where we're following a story that we thought was over. remember the drama over the name of oakland's airport? >> who could forget? it continues. so they went from oakland international airport to san francisco bay. oakland, now international airport. then there was a lawsuit over the name, and now it's changing yet again. >> abc seven news reporter luz pena is live at the new oakland san francisco bay international airport. did you catch the difference? >> memorize this. lose. >> julian and larry say it one more time. the oakland san francisco bay international airport. >> i'm not even trying. >> hey, well, you know what? this name change came just a

year after the first rebranding, which obviously led to a lawsuit by the city of san francisco and many confused travelers who landed here in oakland thinking they were actually landing at sfo. the airport in oakland is changing its name for the second time in a year. >> again to what? >> like kathy heinz, many travelers are wondering the same thing. we took these questions to the director of aviation for the port of oakland. >> we're going to go with oakland san francisco bay airport. this is really kind of leaning into oakland, putting oakland first. >> here's some context. a year ago, the port of oakland, which operates the airport, changed the airport's name to the san francisco bay oakland airport, hoping new branding would attract more traffic. san francisco ended up suing oakland. so now the port is proposing to switch the name around and put oakland first. how much money has the port of oakland spent with these name changes? >> so in our board letter, we

put down roughly $150,000. really what that does is that's that's for signage or digital signage. and some of the marketing things we've done as far as if you're asking for legal fees. i do not know at this time. >> has it been worth it? >> absolutely. it's been worth it. we've gotten a lot of coverage. >> bay area resident janet coble is glad the new name will make it clear that the airport is actually located in the city of oakland. >> people my age at least, aren't going to get confused. young people don't seem to get as confused as easily as we do. >> city council member noel gayo is hoping this change will lead to more flights. >> we're losing some flights from southwest, so we need to do everything possible to how do we make the opportunity for southwest a lot better so they can stay in oakland? >> as to the lawsuit, it's still ongoing. in a statement, the san francisco city attorney's office responded, we are just learning about this development and will assess any next steps to ensure san francisco international airport's trademark is protected.

oakland councilmember carroll fife hopes this change sends a clear message. >> we're hoping that this is what it takes to take us out of litigation and still put oakland on the map. >> and this is not a done deal. the port of oakland still needs to vote on this on july 10th. and if you're wondering about the three letter identifier, that remains the same in oakland. luz pena, abc seven news. >> oakland, san francisco bay international airport. we appreciate it. thank you. luz. now to the south bay, where san jose police say more than 3,000 pounds of illegal fireworks will not make their way onto local streets this 4th of july. officers seized the fireworks during two separate undercover operations, the first on june 16th at a south san jose storage locker, the second last sunday at two locations in east san jose, where officers also discovered 50 improvised explosive devices, or ieds. >> an ied is a homemade device, and in this case they contained

hundreds, if not thousands of times more. the legal limit of explosive powder. >> three suspects are now in custody. one is charged with the possession, sale and transportation of destructive devices and illegal fireworks. two others facing multiple felony counts related to the possession of illegal fireworks. in san francisco. hundreds of illegal fireworks seized there, too. police say the fireworks were recovered from a stolen van driving through the city, a reminder that all fireworks are illegal in the city of san francisco. >> the 40 niners are not saying much about last night's arrest of defensive back lenore in los angeles, according to police. officers approached a group of people, including lenore. they saw a gun inside a car, and then when the officers asked for the keys, the man who had the keys threw them to lenore, who then tossed them to a third man who allegedly tried to hide them a game of hot potato with the police. there, lenore is accused of obstruction of justice. released from jail today, scheduled to appear in court

next month. >> the golden gate bridge tweaked its bylaws today to avoid attention that could potentially lead to losing $400 million in funding because of president trump's ban on dei initiatives. this morning, the board of directors eliminated references to implicit bias in its strategic plan and retracted resolutions that focused on anti-discrimination and social equity efforts. but walking a fine line, the golden gate bridge board of directors also denounced racism and vowed to embrace a culture of belonging for its workforce. >> coming up on abc seven news at 4:00, some big rulings today out of the supreme court. what those decisions will mean for you turning empty offices into housing. it's been in the works for years now. new incentives to actually make this happen and turning robo taxis i make junk disappear? i am so looking forward to this. we make junk disappear. all you have to do is point. call 1-800-got-junk? or visit 1800gotjunk.com we'll be there

has upped the ante by adding incentives to convert those properties. abc7 building a better bay area reporter, lyanne melendez, takes a look to see whether they can build motivation here, because it's not as easy as just okay, one to the other. >> no, and it's going to take a long time. you know, i'm not a developer because i like to sleep at night and not worry. but it seems like a good deal. okay, so let's say i own an office building. in order to convert it, i'm going to need a lot of money. what the city would do is once the building is converted, i get a rebate money back every year for 30 years. sounds promising, but right now, developers say there's a lot of certainty. building conversions are a challenge, but not always impossible. san francisco has a history of converting office spaces into residences. 46 condos were developed at the royal insurance building at sampson and pine streets. the old chronicle building is now a

ritz-carlton residence. on market street, 52 units there were converted the bank of italy building, later named bank of america at one powell street, was transformed into 44 lofts, and the largest conversion happened at 100 van ness. the old triple a building now home to 418 rental units. the architect explained how they did it. >> and the biggest thing that we did at the building was to remove the old precast concrete facade and to replace that with floor to ceiling glass, to really allow the view potential of the building to be realized. >> that project started in 2013. today, a hard reality is hitting developers like mark babson of the emerald fund. >> the exact same building that we're in today, if we bought it out today, would cost 70% more,

70% more than 2013. in these 12 years. >> construction costs have increased at a faster rate than rents in san francisco. so for many developers, the numbers simply do not add up. last october, then mayor london breed announced the office of housing conversion at 785 market street. the old humboldt bank building. but the developer appears to have now hit the pause button. supervisor rafael mandelman is staying realistic in these uncertain times. >> you know, where are we going? are we headed into recovery? are we headed into recession? that will make a difference. what happens with interest rates? you know what happens with tariffs? >> here's what the city has done to incentivize developers. a year ago, we told you the city's permitting process had been expedited and planning fees reduced. but there's more to it. developers who convert then later sell the building no longer have to pay the 6% transfer fee. check. conversions

are exempt from affordable housing requirements. check. that was all done to try to add housing and revitalize downtown. >> we will continue to adapt. we will adjust, and we will be better. >> and now mayor daniel lurie has signed a legislation aimed at continuing the work of his predecessor. it would reimburse the yearly tax increases that an owner would have to pay. >> that increased tax would actually come back to the owner of the building as an incentive for them to take on the project in the first place. >> let's say you converted the building and now the added value is $209 million. the building would be eligible for a city rebate. in this case, that's nearly $1.4 million in the first year alone. that would increase each year as taxes went up over 30 years. that really adds up. >> so it's a real value to the property, a really a huge

reduction of the expenses of operating the building. >> members of the board of supervisors are optimistic that it will increase conversion developments. the vote to pass the legislation was unanimous. >> i think there's about 50 that are actually going to be utilizing this program. those 50 buildings turn into about 4400 units of housing. that turns into over 10,000 new residents in this downtown area. >> but right now, those 50 or so that may be viable candidates for conversion are laying low and not revealing their intentions yet. and supervising all of this and selecting the buildings will be up to the downtown revitalization and economic recovery financing district. yes, it's a long title. the people involved in that should be in place by the end of the year, and then in january 2026, building owners can begin applying. and we will keep tabs on these conversions. so let's do the math. okay. so

in january next year then maybe planning one more year construction, i think we're going to see the first building in 3 to 5 years. >> that sounds optimistic kind of. >> yeah i'm not a builder. well. >> and that's why you sleep at night. but the lighting and the plumbing are major issues in most office buildings to retrofit. >> so that's why there are only about 50 or so viable. >> yeah. all right. thank you liane. >> appreciate it. >> still to come here on abc seven news at four. making and keeping those memories. the ancient hacks that are now making a comeback. that's up next. >> hi, i'm diego luna tonight, tiffany haddish, alan turing and music from hermanos gutierrez. so skip the siesta and join us after the late news on jimmy kimmel live!

half moon bay. you really didn't make it past 60 degrees today. high pressure did bring the heat today, but it's really not building in completely. so you have that weak marine influence going near the coast. san rafael showing you sunshine this weekend. it's going to be perfect for pride events. wide range of temperatures hot inland, mild at the coast. and early next week we're going to bring you minor cooling. so we're going to go hour by hour tonight at 520. if you do have outdoor activities or plans for pride events, it's still going to be hot inland in the 90s. coast side cooling off quickly. fog will branch out as we head towards the late night hours, and tomorrow morning there will be fog around the coast and bay. temperatures will begin in the 50s and 60s for most of you, and then quickly rise as we head into the 12:00 hour. by the afternoon, we're talking about another hot one inland mild at the coast. so here's a look at your morning temperatures. you're going to be in the 50s and 60s once again. the fog will be limited tomorrow afternoon. you're looking at 87 in san jose, los gatos, 90 degrees 91, in morgan hill on the

to help us improve our memory. it taps into our brain's natural ability to remember visual images and remember places. here's how it works. >> for the things you want to remember. you're going to tie them to different locations. and that could be by creating what's called a roman room and linking them to objects around a room that you're very familiar with. >> okay, so to try this out, think of a familiar place like your home and mentally walk through that space. then create a vivid memory of what you want to remember and tie it to an item in that space. so, for example, to remember, you need to buy eggs. think of an egg bouncing on your sofa to remember that later. mentally walk through that space again. when you see that sofa, it will trigger that memory of the eggs. to read more about this, check it out. the article is on rewiring your brain at national geographic.com. it looks like larry wants to try it out. >> no, i'm just thinking i'm already. now i'm thinking, wow. before you sit down on the couch, make sure you don't sit on the edge. >> that would not be good. okay?

you'll have to buy more eggs if you. >> do that. thanks. appreciate that. coming up, supreme court ruling on birthright citizenship today. sort of. >> liberal judge or a liberal group of judges could tie up a whole country. for years. >> this was only about whether the district judge could enjoin the enforcement of that nationwide. >> exactly what today's decision means. >> and later, a new twist when it comes to moving violations. why you might be able

who's the greatest cashbacker of all time? i earned 1.5% on finger paint just so you can touch the paint. got 3% on barbecue, too. that ain't the only thing that's getting smoked. what'd you just say? cashback like a pro with chase freedom unlimited. how do you cashback?

some major decisions. the court ruling that parents who have religious objections can pull their children from lessons that use lgbtq storybooks, also upholding a state law in texas

that required age verification for adult websites, and also upheld the affordable care act's preventive care mandate. now, one of the most anticipated decisions today was about birthright citizenship, and the court ruled individual judges actually lack the authority to grant nationwide injunctions, but did not rule directly on birthright citizenship. so it's more of a technical ruling. abc seven political reporter monica madden with a closer look. >> well, this was a big one, wasn't it? >> president donald trump taking a victory lap friday after the u.s. supreme court ruled federal judges cannot block a president's policy nationwide. >> in striking down theonwide. excessive use of nationwide injunctions to interfere with the normal functioning of the executive branch. >> the white house, making the case that birthright citizenship incentivizes illegal immigration. >> birthright citizenship which now comes to the fore. that was meant for the babies of slaves. it wasn't meant for people trying to scam the system and come into the country. >> for more than 150 years, the

14th amendment has guaranteed all persons born in america are u.s. citizens. that right, upheld in the 1898 landmark case of wong kim ark, a san francisco born child of chinese immigrants. >> to me, it was all settled law. it was history. >> one of his descendants, norman wong, says he never thought birthright would be up for debate and says the move feels like a dangerous backslide. >> that's going to create havoc in this country, and this is going to change what america means to the world. >> san francisco is part of the lawsuit. city attorney david chu says he's disappointed in the ruling. >> national injunctions are not an everyday tool, but they have been an important tool to prevent unnecessary patchworks of rulings and to check illegal federal action. >> but california and other states suing say the fight is far from over. >> it's now up to the lower courts to reconsider if the nationwide injunction is appropriate and necessary to provide complete relief to the states whose ags sued to

challenge this order. we believe that we will prevail, our cases continuing to make its way through the legal system, and will continue to show up every step of the way to fight for the rights of all americans born in this country. >> already, two groups filing class action lawsuits friday to block trump's order, which the supreme court indicated could be a pathway for blocking policy nationwide. in san francisco. monica madden, abc seven news. >> governor gavin newsom is suing fox news for defamatin after a network host claim he lied. it's related to president trump's assertion that he talked to newsom the day the president deployed 700 marines to los angeles. newsom says that did not happen. the $787 million lawsuit claims jesse watters, fox news program, misleadingly edited a video clip of trump to support the president's claim. >> abc seven news insider phil matier is with us to discuss this. it's unusual for, you know, for governor newsom to be filing this type of lawsuit.

however, we're seeing more and more politicians filing claims against news organizations. >> yes, we are. and let's get clear. this is not governor newsom doing this. this is candidate newsom. he's not doing this as official capacity as governor of california. he's doing this as the potential presidential run. he's had a long and twisted career with in relationship with fox news. he's sometimes been on there as a guest. he's sometimes had debates on there with ron desantis. so he's sort of been a he's very friendly with fox news. on one hand, that's gotten some blowback from other people saying, what are you doing on fox news? well, he stiffened up. and what he's basically said was that fox news, in this instance, misreported or reported what donald trump misreported was a conversation they supposedly had prior to the president ordering the national guard onto the streets of los angeles, and that they and so he has contracted with the same fim that sued talk show hosts over the sandy hook shooting and libel. and so he's brought in big guns and aimed him at fox

news. >> and obviously they were successful in that lawsuit there with the sandy hook one. state senator scott wiener today filing paperwork to run for nancy pelosi's seat in congress. what does this mean? because we have not heard from pelosi saying that she doesn't plan on running again. >> and i don't think you will for a while. what this means is that scott wiener is waiting in the wings, he's waiting in the wings, and he's collected about $1 million. this is about the third time that he's come up with this. he signs up to run, and he collects the money, and he waits. because if nancy pelosi either decides not to run or pulls out after she's electe, and possibly in what many people think is a move to put her daughter, possibly as her replacement, have her daughter elected as her replacement. scott wiener is saying, i'll have $1 million and be ready to go. so it's priming up for one of the big congressional fights. and it was interesting, you know, back to the governor's lawsuit against fox news. people are asking what was the $787 million figure? how did he come across with that? that is what

fox had to pay out to dominion uh- ballots. uh- vote counting machines. okay for their for that liable. so what we have here is a lot of politics going on and it's things are heating up and the governor is gavin is candidate becoming increasingly clear that he's going to be a candidate and he is making noise. everybody in scott wiener is making noise. it's candidate time, clearly. >> so let's talk quickly about birthright citizenship, because we ran the story a few moments ago about that decision. it doesn't mean it's constitutional, but what happens now with the courts? >> what happens now is the courts is that things work their way through the courts. what we were, you know, you know, larry, we have this this situation right now in american politics where everybody puts on their team jersey and that's it. and what one side does is terrible and is the end of the world. and what the other side does is all blessed. basically, what the what the court said was these local judges or these federal judges in places like san francisco or texas, they can rule on matters within their jurisdiction and say yes or no within the case before them.

they can't use one case and give a blanket across the whole country. now some people say that's an overstep, but you have to remember, someday it might be a federal judge in texas making a statement that you wouldn't like. so it's checks and balances only with things are a little out of balance. >> yeah, yeah. just slightly. >> birthright case not close to being done yet. we'll see that in october for sure. thank you. appreciate it. >> coming up, a new way to protest that ticket. you got, julian. and you don't even need to leave your house for that. and the best movies so far this millennium on the

but i'll tell you, the one thing that i immediately thought about in this case is that if you contest some sort of citation, whatever it's for, and the officer that gave you the ticket does not show up, the case is immediately dismissed. i don't know how that would factor into this situation, but it's what i did cross my fingers and hope for a couple times. way back when. way back. >> my immediate thought hearing this was, man, younger generations are going to love this. my little sister who's in college, she won't even pick up the phone to call a restaurant to make a reservation. so i feel like younger people are going to be like, yo, i can do it online. great. >> yeah, well, that's what young people sound like. >> monica well, if you just don't speed, right, that's another way to do it. >> that's an idea. yeah. follow the law. >> larry. need for beal. all right. okay. from you driving to someone else doing the driving, do you tip your uber driver? in an interview uber ceo says tipping is optional. and based on the numbers, lots of people are opting out. he says get

this. i was really blown away by this number. about 20% of riders currently tip, and that number is actually a bit higher than it used to be. only one out of five people are tipping when they get into an uber. >> i have to admit, i am one of those people who does not tip ubers in most circumstances, unless if, like i had a really good experience with the driver. great conversation. they were really nice. maybe they had the little waters in the back seat, because when uber first came out there wasn't a tip option. so i guess it's kind of like me rebelling against, oh, you have to tip everywhere now. like tipping at the grocery store, for goodness sake. you know what i mean? it's just like, let's relax on the tips. if you have great service, i will reward you. but if you're if it's like not that much, then, you know. >> sandy, i think it depends on the quality of the ride itself. >> yeah, absolutely. and you know, i understand what monica is saying, but larry, i have always tipped the uber drivers and i think that people are getting exhausted. like monica, perhaps about all the tips that

they're constantly asking you, like, you take out food and it's like they're not serving you. they're asking you for a tip, right? >> right. >> with the uber driver, though, i kind of default at tipping. and then if it's really bad, don't tip. but you know. >> yeah, i get i hear you. maybe i should be more generous with. >> monica likes. she likes the waymo's. now we know. >> why publicly shaming monica. >> you were you were there first on that speeding, so. oh, okay. >> all right. we're even starbucks trying to win back customers by making even more changes. the coffee chain returning to its roots with comfy chairs, couches, tables, power outlets you can recharge. for years, starbucks have been going to a different model with hard chairs and fewer comforts. the idea there is let's turn over those tables. we don't want to see julian sitting there with this coffee that he buys once every four hours while he's on the wi-fi, but the company is going to renovate all of its stores over the next three years. >> i thought they were moving away from, like, inviting people to sit and hang out there. and this seems like not.

>> that was yesterday. that was yesterday. >> trying to get this revenue back up. >> yeah. got to. >> get julian. don't let larry give you a hard time. >> i never even go to starbucks. i don't know what he's. >> talking about. even worse. right. well. >> i like my local coffee shops. >> exactly. support local. buy local for sure. this list is getting a lot of attention. the new york times is out with its list of the best movies of the 21st century. okay, think about it. what's your favorite? at the top of the list is 2019 korean dark comedy thriller parasite, which won best picture at the 92nd academy awards. rounding out the top five mulholland drive, there will be blood. in the mood for love and moonlight, directors, actors and other film professionals weighed in on the list, so it will probably be a lot more scientific than just us throwing out our favorite movie. >> i have to say when you sd think of your list, i immediately started thinking of movies from the 20th century. but i did love parasite. that was a great, great, fantastic. >> very good. >> i was thinking of shawshank redemption. that's like one of my all time favorites. yeah, but

yeah, different century. >> i'm shocked that none of the john wick movies or fast and furious one through ten, how? seems like a glaring omission. sandy. i mean, vin diesel, the rock, all that. >> you know, i agree, and i'm a huge fan, so i agree with you, larry. >> well, they'll be on our list then. >> yes, we'll make our own list. >> yes. >> the top five was good though. moonlight parasite. those are like classic movies in my book, for sure. >> instant classic. >> yeah, parasite was fabulous. >> didn't that only come out in 2020 or around then? >> yeah, it was. >> right around. i remember watching it during the pandemic. like that's a core memory being in lockdown, watching parasite. yeah. >> i left out the expendables with sylvester stallone. oh never mind. >> got a tweet out your list, larry. >> oh, yeah. very high brow.

and the implementation of these opportunities is unheard of. usually, we're an afterthought. >> waymo believes its driverless vehicle offers a consistent, safe and predictable way for young adults on the spectrum to travel. and by working with the autism society of america in the very early stages of development, they can avoid any challenges that might come as the company grows. >> we want to hear what are their pain points? what are the problems that exist for them at so many different parts and times in the journey? because we need those to then build in our solutions around those problems. >> having this autonomy is something that builds confidence and it uplifts people and allows them to be able to go to their doctor's appointment or go to their therapies and services, go meet a friend when otherwise they may have had to be reliant on a friend or family member.

>> according to a study from the journal of autism, only 33% of adults with autism have a driver's license, but many do have jobs, degrees and want to have independence. connor, from love on the spectrum even wants to date. >> a lot of people on the spectrum. don't like myself. don't know how to drive. >> yeah. and also, i think that the user friendliness of it speaks to someone on the spectrum. i think sometimes navigating a lot of steps and buttons or whatever, you just order your ride. >> autism is a diagnosis that affects an entire family, especially as the children reach adulthood, when parents like fernando might have begun to plan for retirement. not oscar antonio's next appointment. >> it lifted a tremendous weight off our shoulders because it's important for us, for us to have that independence. >> philip palmer abc seven news. >> a unique academy is being held in the bay area this week, and it has brought together teenage activists from all over the country. about 25 students are working together on the

campus of santa clara university to build a culture of belonging. they are taking part in the beyond differences program, which is put on by sandy hook promise. in order to participate, the students have to apply and then go through an interview process. their goal is simple to make a difference in the classroom. >> i think what motivated me to come here is knowing that this sort of stuff is exactly what i needed in middle school. i needed to, you know, hear someone had the same experiences as me, even if they weren't in my classroom. so what motivates me is that feeling, knowing that, you know, other middle schoolers don't have to feel the same way i had to feel in middle school. >> sandy hook promise was founded in 2013, one year after the deadly shooting at the connecticut elementary school. >> all right. checking out the forecast as we close in on the weekend. >> yes. finally. here, we check back in now with meteorologist sandhya patel. >> yeah, and it's going to be beautiful weather for this weekend. julian and larry, let's take a look at live doppler seven. we are still looking at some patchy fog right near the
