senator alex padilla. i have questions for the secretary, a us senator from california pushed out of a news conference and forced to the ground. how alex padilla and the homeland security secretary are responding. good afternoon. i'm

gia vang. welcome to nbc bay area news at 430. our ian cull is tracking the fallout from the senator forcibly removed from the dhs news conference, then put in handcuffs. we're also tracking other stories this thursday, including should president trump be allowed to deploy the national guard in la? the arguments in a san francisco courtroom pitting the state of california against the white house. also, two friends get into a fight in san jose. one of them is dead, with the other accused of pulling the trigger. how the soccer community is reacting this afternoon. but let's begin with accusations flying from both sides of the aisle. it comes after senator alex padilla was forcibly removed from a press conference this morning in l.a. and put in handcuffs. it happened while he was trying to ask the homeland security secretary a question during her press conference. nbc bay area's ian cull has been looking into this story and joins us. ian, just take us through what happened. yeah. so earlier today in la, homeland security secretary kristi noem trying to hold that press conference about dhs operations

when senator alex padilla says he tried to ask questions. and here is what happened next to every single person that has been able to do this. i'm senator alex padilla. i have questions for the secretary because the fact of the matter is, a half a dozen violent criminals that are rotating on your on your. i also want to talk hannes daube padilla was forcibly removed by federal agents, put on the ground and handcuffed. after briefly being detained. he was released and had this to say after the incident. if this is how the department of homeland security responds to a senator with a question, you can only imagine what they're doing to farmworkers, to cooks, to day laborers out in the los angeles community and throughout california and throughout the country. we will hold this

administration accountable. the senator visibly emotional in that soundbite. okay, so we understand that the senator shortly after that met privately with the secretary. press secretary noem says that they sat down for about 10 to 15 minutes. he says it was a few minutes. she says it was a good conversation, but did call his actions disrespectful and later telling fox news the secret service thought he was an attacker and reacted accordingly. and this man burst into the room, started lunging towards the podium, interrupting me and elevating his voice, and was stopped, did not identify himself and was removed from the room. so as soon as h he entified himself, you know, appropriate actions were taken. coming into a press conference like this as political theater, it is wrong, and it does a disservice to this country and the people who live here. now, padilla told nbc late today that he was already in the fbi building to get another briefing, but heard about this press conference happening. so he tried to go down the hall, get some information that he's been asking for. he said to

msnbc from secretary noem. and he also did mention that ice is not just going after violent criminals. they're going after families and kids, too. our full story with reaction from his colleagues on capitol hill is coming up at six. definitely top story today. ian thank you. okay. a constitutional battle between california's governor and the president made its way to federal court today in san francisco. california filed suit against the president, arguing the administration didn't properly activate the national guard when he deployed them to los angeles. and you'll remember, the president did so over the governor's objection today for 45 minutes. u.s. district judge charles breyer questioned attorneys from the doj about the president's order. a key question was whether governor gavin newsom was even notified about the president's order before it was enacted. legal experts say the judge's questions hint he's skeptical of the government's argument, and he told both sides he hopes to have a ruling out before the end of the day. our sergio quintana

spent the day in the courtroom. he'll join us with a live update in less than 30 minutes. and as that all plays out, so do demonstrations against the trump administration's immigration policies. this afternoon, interfaith groups gathered at san francisco city hall. let's bring in our robert honda live in san francisco. and, robert, what message do they want to send to the white house today there? hi, gia. yeah, it was sort of an interesting kind of message because it was billed as an interfaith gathering, but it did feel more like a protest organized by the interfaith council, which represents about 800 different faith organizations in san francisco and in the area. and one of the interesting things was, is that their tone was a little bit different than you'll see at most protests, where you hear a lot of people talking about being things being unethical or being illegal. here. the main tone was that the trump administration's actions are being are being characterized as immoral. so that was one of the interesting things that you hear when you hear it from the point

of view of these interfaith groups. so that was basically the message that they were trying to send to the white house, that they plan to still fight these immigration policies by helping immigrants. and they also wanted to send out a message to immigrants that their resources are available for them, and that they want to encourage them to come forward and not to be afraid to seek them out. and, robert, we're looking at some of the video that you shot earlier as well, you and your crew. and we see that the mayor was there, mayor daniel lurie. what did he have to say? yeah. daniel lurie basically reiterated the fact that san francisco has always been sort of a leading force in civil rights and even bucking an administration that they disagree with. and so they certainly were making that message clear. and they also pointed out that they continue to fight the policies not only on a moral level by helping immigrants with resources and advice, but also they still plan to go to court. in fact, the

interfaith council, represented by the asian law caucus, is going to court against the trump administration on two different issues. one, the fact that they rescinded protection for immigrants at schools and hospitals and other places like that, as well as the fact that the federal government is threatening to pull federal funds because san francisco is a sanctuary city. so they were basically echoing what danielle lurie was pushing throughout the whole conference, which is they will continue to fight these immigration policies. yeah, a lot of legal action going on here. robert honda live in san francisco for us. thank you. we're going to be following today's protests very closely. be sure to stick with nbc bay area on both on air and online. the latest developments for the latest. we're also streaming 24/7 on our roku and so many platforms. just look for us wherever you stream. well, the south bay soccer community is shaken tonight after learning a few new details about a friday

night homicide in almaden valley. san jose police are releasing very few details, but we've learned the suspect is a longtime soccer coach and former player named dave gold. police will confirm gold was arrested, then released in connection with the deadly shooting at his almaden valley home. gold once played for the san jose earthquakes in the 80s and coached for the san jose clash. he's since been a youth soccer coach. the victim is believed to be gold's longtime friend and assistant coach, ronnie morris gold's. neighbors say they're shaken. i'm just shocked that in my neighborhood. yeah, it kind of surprising me. you know, this neighborhood, it quite safe. so to hear that somebody shooting around this neighborhood. quite a shock and surprise me. no one answered the door at gold's home when we knocked this morning. the victim, ronnie morris, was 69 years old and a resident of the town of templeton. all

right. let's turn now to our weather. another nice day across the bay area. as you're looking at all of our cameras. walnut creek in the mid 70s. right there. let's bring in meteorologist vianey arana with our forecast. not bad if you're in walnut creek, but, i mean, it was kind of nice all over. yeah. it's been stable. you know, temperature wise we've had a nice range, gusty at times in some areas. but i mean, look at san francisco, even though we started out cloudy at the coast, which was forecasted. we also got some nice clearing around parts of the coast. here's what it looks like right now in san jose. temperature at a cool 69 degrees. wind speeds at about 13mph. so we're in a couple of areas still below average, and we're going to stay that way, at least for the next couple of days. here's a closer look at what satellite is showcasing right now, which is, of course, that expected clearing for inland areas and then a couple of areas of cloud cer. we'll see that again tonight into tomorrow. but i want to show you the stretch of temperatures because this plays into our microclimates, but also the influence of some cooler air

just to our north also plays a role in this. but we've still got those warm 88 degrees in tracey. so the interior still consistently dry. and that will remain a concern. and i want to show you the winds, because we're going to see the return of these onshore winds. and we could start navigating into that gusty territory, at least for some of those peaks. right now in san francisco, we're at 20 plus fairfield 22. and even though the wind speeds are calm for the most part, and we're cooler in those inland areas, we're still seeing a lot of dry brush out there. and that is always going to be something that we monitor. now that we're heading into drier months with no rain in sight. so the next couple of hours, here's what we're looking at into early friday morning. we'll get the return of that marine layer along with the chance for some drizzle. but much like today, we'll get beautiful clearing by the afternoon. that's going to make way for a nice start to the weekend, and temperatures tomorrow will be very similar to today. that comfortable 75. i love that that's one of my favorite temperatures 7576 i think that's just the right

spot. all right. let's talk about what your extended forecast will look like. make sure to stick around. we do have our chief meteorologist jeff ranieri. he's going to go into more detail about what that showcasing and into the weekend. gia. all right. thanks. president trump reverses california's plan to phase out gas powered cars. the moves he made today in dc and how california is already responding. also understanding the effects of postpartum depression for dads. we'll show you how it's different from the baby blues and resources for anyone who needs help. but before we head to break, we want to knowhat trending story you would like to see later on in this newscast. so i have a survey up right now on my instagram stories, and you still have some time to vote for one of these three renters flooding the suburbs. do you want to know about that, or do you want to know about portable batteries recalled over fires? or the daily snack that helps improve alth?he

trump signed a bill today

formally blocking california's plan to phase out the sale of all new gas vehicles by 2035. and governor newsom wasted no time responding, saying the state will sue to stop the president's overreach. here to give us more insight on what this means moving forward is meteorologist vianey arana and vianey this back and forth push on clean air mandates and evs. it's not new. you know, this isn't the first time that we have heard about the trump administration or the gop rolling back so-called green initiatives. now, the president has talked about cutting back electric vehicle tax credits. has taken action to increase oil production. and just last month, the republican controlled house and senate revoked the clean air act waivers. another part of california's clean cars and trucks program. now, today's bill blocks california's plan to phase out the sale of all new powered vehicles, gas powered vehicles within ten years. that california initiative also called for the phasing out of medium and heavy duty diesel vehicles, and the reduction of

tailpipe emissions for all trucks. now, the president's action will block those as well. and trump. president trump didn't mince words during today's signing. we officially rescue the u.s. auto industry from destruction by terminating the california electric vehicle mandate once and for all. and again, you can get any car you want. you can get electric. a lot of people love the electric. they like tesla. so do i. in all fairness, i like tesla. and i like others too. but i also like combustion engines. so i know both the governor, the attorney general, rob bonta, they're both calling the president's actions illegal and say they're suing to block it. this would add on to the more than 20 other lawsuits they filed against the administration. and governor newsom's office says, quote, this defies decades of, you know, what would have been previous waivers and contradicts the legislative process. now, newsom's office said in a statement that california's

efforts to clean its air dates back to then governor ronald reagan, who established the california air resources board and signed california's groundbreaking clean air act. president trump's argument is that california's rules would spike prices for vehicles and electricity. now, the administration also argues state rules cannot exceed federal standards, but history disagrees. waivers date back to the nixon administration, which allows states to set the standards needed to clean up air pollution even if they exceed federal standards. and now, ag bonta says california is ready to fight. today we are making good on that promise. we refuse to let this unprecedented and illegal use of the cra undermine the clean air act, waivers that give california the authority to enforce our own emission standards. let me be clear. these waivers have never, under any administration, democrat or republican, been considered rules that are subject to

disapproval under the cra. and for context, they also presented the health aspects of this. i've done several reports here talking about global emissions, the impacts and the percentages and tracking data from the environmental protection agency. it shows that transportation accounts for about a fourth of all u.s. greenhouse gas emissions, and some of the u.s. cities reporting the highest impact from air pollution are right here in california. so we'll have to see how this plays out. all right. vianey, thank you for that. meanwhile, a new documentary premieres tonight in the north bay about the forest guardians tryg to protect the amazon rainforest. just three. amazonia. just three. the amazon rainforest is critical to our planet because it does things like take in carbon from the atmosphere, and it serves as a home for so many species. we spoke with the filmmakers who say the film is a small window into the lives of these people,

risking everything to protect the amazon from invasion and deforestation, and you geto learn straight from them, their wisdom and their culture as they're going out on these missions that are, you know, risking their lives. and also the other side, the indigenous logger, the illegal loggers that are going out and invading the indigenous lands just to feed their families. and so it's a character driven story about the global implications of what's happening in the amazon. we're all guardians. we can all step up as guardians of our communities, of our local forests, of the amazon as well. so yeah, please come join us. come check out the film, share about it. it's a really important issue, and it's amazing right now to have the guardians with us. thehey inspie me with so much hope and so much courage. to step into what feels like really crazy times in our world. but i have a lot of hope because of them. okay, so where can you see this movie? well, it opens tonight in downtown san rafael. the directors and as you

heard, one of the directors say, some of the forest protectors will also be there. there are also showings in san francisco, santa cruz, san jose and sonoma later this month. and we'll put a link to that info on our website, nbcbayarea.com. under the climate in crisis tab. a new baby can bring a lot of stress to the lives of parents, and it may lead to depression in some. and we're not just talking about moms here. our marcus washington has more. when you hear about postpartum depression, you likely think about moms. but it happens to dads as well. 1 in 10 dads also suffer from postpartum depression. 18%ill develop more serious clinical symptoms. half of the men whose partners suffer from postpartum depression will develop ppd as well. and all of this is more serious than just a few weeks of baby blues. this is all according to a dad from richmond. it was definitely brushed off as like, oh, you're just going through the baby blues. oh, having a new kid is tough. you know, you're just

learning as you're going along, which is absolutely true. but those symptoms don't last for that long. now he did find help through postpartum support international, which offers expert and peer support for dads and the understanding that their symptoms might be different from their partners. experts say to those who think postpartum depression isn't real because th didn't deliver the baby. well, it's about more than hormones. the nature of the parental relationship. previous history of mental health difficulties. trauma, socioeconomic issues. if you're working three jobs just to keep the lights on and formula in, these will also contribute to developing some of these issues. now this is so important here for parents who are experiencing postpartum depression. there is help. you can call or text the postpartum support international hotline. that number on your screen right there. or you can visit postpartum dot net. and you can see stories like this every morning when you join us
