this house is known as a greek revival house. it was built in 1838 and you see them all throughout concord. quite a common architectural style for this area. we are here in the par lore. and behind me is one of three tenney in 1852 when he was running for president. he is quite a handsome gentleman and he was known by handsome frank and other one was young hickory of the granite hills since he had the same politics as apped drew jackson. over here on the wall is a copy of a letter that is owned by the college and this is franklin and writing to a friend in the let are arer, they are trying to find a job for nathaniel haw thorn. he was an author and liked to write books and had to support a family. this is an ongoing theme. they were always try to find work for nathaniel so he could support his family. over here on the wall is an order of cincinnati certificate and franklin pierce is one of three presidents that belongs to this organization. this is the first veterans' organization in our country and it was formed by the officers

, low-income housing, and middle class housing is basically a housing issue, per se. i talked with a member of the german parliament the other day. i was asked to have lunch with them and helping the planning department bridge the gap for time they didn't have. and this gentleman told me that housing is a basic constitutional right. that is not quite the case here, and he tried to talk to me and i was a little bit chill about what we are doing with low-income evictions, what we are doing with ellis act housing, and what we are doing with middle-income housing. for example, leaving a unit empty for more than three months in their definition is an intent of change of use. and it's a very kind of heavy weighted decision because that allows, in their environment, people to basically be fined and be fined to the extent that people are really serious trying to stay away from having empty units. if we have a housing shortage for all lower and middle-income housing, then i think we need to start a serious look at the large amount of vacancy that we have in the area of 35 or 4

through the white house. and so mrs. bush had made sure that any of the resident's staff that were still working in the white house that had been there in the johnson time were there to greet mrs. johnson at the diplomatic reception room door when she stepped in. and in addition, one of the butlers that had worked for the johnsons, mr. german, was now a part-time elevator operator, operated the president's elevator in the white house, just a few days a week, mrs. bush made sure that he was there and that he was the one that greeted mrs. johnson when the door was opened of the car for her to get out. and the way that mrs. johnson reached up in recognition to embrace mr. german and how he embraced her, is really would just make you weep. but would also, the two last things that i'll just say about mrs. johnson's visit, her last visit to the white house, is, mrs. bush wheeled her into the vermeil room on the ground floor, which had just been repainted under one of the restoration projects that mrs. bush did, tha

and housing being stream lined. we believe that san francisco, including this body, was serious about increasing the housing in other areas. if we were able to negotiate with the condo owners, it would call into question that belief. i'm not here to negate the concerns of community groups who were concerned about displacement. we were concerned about the impact from building office space and not enough housing. i'm not here to negate that. if you continue this, let it not be so you can just negotiate with a penthouse condo owner, who doesn't want his view blocked. >> next speaker. >> this is going to be short. i represent san francisco housing coalition. i want to say the number of units that this project represents is important that it moves forward as quickly as possible. also recognizing we're in a housing shortage. >> thank you. next speaker. >> i want to caution you, i believe this is a trick device to time delay to further give people away and don't giffin put. like it did with the mission rock by the building

you have a very great house. another house here with mr. pearlman did a great job adding another building. we weren't concerned about the density, we were concerned about the fact that you were taking this building down. interesting enough, this also belies the fact, for lack of a better term, we heard positions on sb 827, local jurisdictions have all the control over demolitions. according we don't, according to what you're saying, so that was, i think, absolutely false. when we have that come back with us, we have to make sure this city at least acknowledges that, that every single-family home, if it's upzoned, is possible for elimination. i think that we can -- you know, we did ask for -- and the other question was, how did -- were the tenants bought out? we had five tenants get here -- i think it was five. most of them were nonprofit buildings. the sign appeared on the building you were going to demolish your building while you're living in here. what happened to all the tenants? they just magically left? >> this is to the best of my kn

the bank has just one cashpoint here many of the houses are already empty r.w. is offering most residents a house the same size but in a new development those who don't want to move back of a hard time to market to the housing market is swamped with applicants they can't find anything. despite that some residents want to defend themselves and refuse to accept our resettlement deal. that is hidden for us to fund you're in the front line. just like the radicals on the tree houses in the forest instead of sitting you standing here. you. miss that space it's important to me to call attention to how forest but even more to make sure local people son and suffering isn't forgotten and that we give each of us strength at a time like this side. it's kind bank is to be demolished in seven years at the latest people here hope that's time enough to find other solutions together. after. entering the conflict zone with tim sebastian. has been challenging those in power asking tough questions demanding. as conflicts intensify i'll be meeting with key players on the ground in t

social housing is often run down and housing is a basic human right we need to provide social housing and the sense of community that's built into the d.n.a. of these buildings is irreplaceable yeah due to dramatically the the communicate that without it being boring a door because it is clearly explained the tearing down. our approach was to bring people into social housing itself so it's really important that the play happens in a council estate community space and it's really important that that space actually comes to life that the history of that space that the sense that that space could be a place where a fire happens where. blackouts happen where the place is not maintained all of that actually happens and you experience it from we'll i think that's what gives the play its urgency and really makes you feel wow this place matt is it's bringing people together and it has a life of its own but ironic that it is in a community of the city which is being gentrified which is losing social housing and over the government's as it's now brings as well as in affordable homes the play al

of the house. we are separate. a lot of people inside the white house want to get information out there. we're grateful for that. >> peter, is there any indication that donald trump comprehends the irony of the moment? specifically, the irony of the conversation that you and i are having at this very moment? which is that today with his white house in crisis over people within the white house expressing their dissatisfaction with the trump administration that when they have a meeting about that and when they have a discussion about that and when they reduce their suspect list to 12, that it is immediately leaked to "the new york times" that their suspect list has been reduced to 12. >> yeah. you know, of course it's also in their interest, perhaps, to make clear that anybody that might think about doing the same thing as this author that they are doing to respond, right? a white house wants to have discipline. they don't have any discipline, as we see in this white house at the moment. so they're t

they're house rich but cash poor. often times will make the decision to have informal relationships where they have in-laws or elderly individuals, a lot of them are women, will move to the downstairs and rent the upstairs and then even if they do, a home, for instance, this is an extreme example, but the lady across the street was 96-years-old when she passed away, there were three siblings, they did not want to sell the home and they chose to rent t it was the first time in 58 years it had been open to any other person in their family. but they chose to rent that. what worries me about this conversation when it pertains to single-family homes, a lot of family chose not to participate in the rental market. single-family home in my district rents for $3500 to $4,000 a month, still extremely high. but comparable to a one bedroom in other starts of the city. so it is an affordable for families and multitude of people. i worry that option would be taken off the table. i worry that people would not and do not formalize th

we can build more housing. i do agree with members of the public housing needs to be built in other parts of the city. this is the one area of san francisco that can build for more jobs. think in avenges anticipation of more housing than what was studied under this e.i.r. as they come for approval we should begin and initiate the supplemental e.i.r. as they come before the planning commission we study the additional housing in the district. next, i think ensure a strong citizens advisory committee. we have a lot of community facilities funds to be generated. i think the concerns that i heard they want to know how this new revenue and benefit will be sent down and invested. what type of affordable housing and parks and pedestrian safety and bike lanes will be institute. what types of air quality around the freeway and residents to fund through the plan. to earn sure a level of confidence from the community the funds will be spent to benefit the neighborhood. we need a strong citizens advisory committee to recomm

i'm counting on house and senate republicans to be the adults. i'm counting on them doing things like stop trump from doing things like separating families, and republicans have instead signed up to be the dallas cowboy cheerleaders of the trump administration. and as a result voters are saying, look, if thir not going to put a check on trump, we need someone who will. and i think that's why congressman swalwell will be wielding a gavel in the next republican congress. >> we saw the president not think for one second how to convert people who did not vote for him. most president the day after election day start talking to the possible swing voters who did not street for them. they start to add to their support base, and donald trump has never spent one day or directed one sentence towards the people who did not vote for him last time around. >> that's exactly right. he's a narcissist and he's a guy who's in the moment. in other words, whoever is in front of him, whatever crazy crowd he can throw together, that is his only concern. he is phobic ab

and after attending a meeting at the white house this morning, white house press secretary sarah huckabee sanders issued this statement. at the request of rod rosenstein, he and president trump had an extended conversation to discuss the recent news stories. because the president is at the u.n. ga and has a full schedule with leaders from around the world, they'll meet on thursday when the president returns to washington, d.c. when asked about rosenstein's future, the president was vague. >> i'm meet with rod rosenstein on thursday when i get back from all of these meetings. and we'll be meeting at the white house, and we'll be determining what's going on. we want to have transparency. we want to have openness, and i look forward to meet with rod at that time. >> what this all means, rosenstein as of this hour is still overseeing bob mueller's investigation. but his fate remains far from certain. sources telling nbc news that rosenstein spoke to white house counsel don mcgahn over the weekend and made clear in that conversation that he would not resign. rosenstein reportedly said he would

i was told this by bill ruck ls house. >> he told him to do it. in the interest of sort of preserving continuity. >> right. in the interest of not having some hack come over from the white house. >> right. >> and take over the department. >> which brings us back to the modern day, the question of i guess to you guys, how constitutionally crucial is rosenstein here? like how much, if in fact we find out thursday he's leaving his job under either situation, either he resigns or is fired -- again, i don't know what makes sense, the conflicting reports. what does that mean? >> it's not positive by any means. on the other hand, i think that the department of justice has enough institutional integrity that there are going to be the people standing their ground. the mueller investigation has gained so much momentum that there are so many successes in little less than a year and a half, that it's hard to believe that anybody is going to want to be part of any situation that would bring down that investigation. >> well, i wish i could be as optimistic as y

weakness for the housing market. yield,ook at the 10-year that could help us understand why we have housing weakness on the year. this is historically low, but it is up 0.5% on the year. it is interesting to keep an eye on this and see what happens with the housing market. david: thank you. we will turn back to trade. michael, you mentioned china. the president on air force one made it sound like $200 billion in tariffs would happen by now, but it hasn't. michael: they finished the last round of public comment period. it is not a surprise that have taken a few days. they just finished public comments on thursday. it could come anytime. he made it sound like this is all but done. we don't know when at this point. david: in the meantime a hurricane bearing down on washington. michael: you look at the tone of that, and it looks like if it stalls out over the carolinas, the president may not announce this this week. david: we had wilbur ross say he is waiting to see how much china suffers. michael: remember, the $50 bill

we ended up with triangular house. unusual architectural ideas always present a pressing challenge how to make it work in real life. we can't house has to be comfortable so is the villa delta what they were hoping for. a lot better actually i could never imagine a room with this much light this much is closeness to nature this feeling of being inside or being one with nature while being inside i could never have imagined a room like this spacious room forms the heart of the one hundred twenty square meter house only one side is a proper wall the other two sides are glass and interior design challenge. you don't have to have it hanging the pictures here because you have nature nature is the nature of the picture and second. where you want to put your photos you see in nature so it came natural to put the furniture facing nature facing the walls which is something you wouldn't do in a house with just locked walls the only thing missing was space for shelves. closets so the delta's architect turned a wall into a built in

the report of sex is the white house. he is looking at russia trying to take over our country through our electoral system. that worries me. i don't care who is president. russia is not our friend. i hope mr. mueller is able to find out exactly what they have done and to stop it from happening again. greta: senator patrick leahy, thank you for being this week's "newsmaker." .ate: thank you very kellie kellie: thank you so much. greta: we are back with our reporters. kate irby of mcclatchy and of cq rollrich call. kate, let's begin with the brett kavanaugh nomination for the supreme court. you heard the senator request not just in light of the letter that senator dianne feinstein has made public about alleged sexual abuse when judge kavanaugh was in high school, but beyond that, democrats say a vote should not take place here when is a vote supposed to take place? kate: one quick note, senator feinstein did not make the letter public, but the allegations are public. the vote is scheduled to go forward on thursday, october

rod rosenstein is either headed to the white house or white house complex right now. that's the first thing. the second thing is it's the expectation of rosenstein we are told that he will be fired. his expectation. now, the major outstanding question separate from that, of course, is will rod rosenstein be fired if he is, of course, that would no longer be the deputy attorney general, the number two at the doj. stepping back from that for a second, this all sort of came to the forefront or at least bubbled up on friday when "the new york times" reported that rosenstein had suggested in 2017 a few weeks into the job that he secretly recruited president trump and recruit over cabinet members to invoke the 25th amendment, the process by other members will oust the president from office. that happened friday, here we are monday morning, rosenstein and expectation that he will be out of the job. reason why or one of the reasons why, stuart, this is so important because as the deputy attorney general rod rosenstein oversees the special counsel probe, if he is no longer in
