Youre about to hear negotiators speaking to omar mateen soon after the attack mateen suggested he carried out attacks, to stop air strikes in syria and iraq. Judge did not rule whether hundreds of 911 called should be release. She said she needs to listen to those first. Shooting was deadliest mass shooting this u. S. History, 49 people were killed. Of course, many of the family members of the victims are very upset with the judge, and transcripts are one thing but to hear the mans voice, they dont like that. 6 21. Well, New York Times out with new details about Donald Trumps taxes over the years. Why the paper says that even his lawyers were a little uncomfortable with the method he used avoid paying tense of millions of dollars of taxes, over the last 20 years. Speaking of money, are you in. When government bureaucrats refused to approve a cancer vaccine equally for both girls and boys, i stepped in to change that rule. When my own party held up recovery funds after sandy hit us, i took them on and won. And when veterans were forced to travel out of state for health care, i brought in new local clinics and expanded services. But theres much more to do. My mission is to protect south jerseys way of life. Im Frank Lobiondo and i approve this message. No warning, no hearing. Its a lending practice sorcing outrageous, most states banned it. But at the bank founded by pat toomey it was business as usual. Forcing Small Business owners out of their homes. Toomey even used his power in the senate to help himself, voting to gut rules that protect us and crack down on big banks. Pat toomey. Out for himself, not us. Dscc is responsible for the content of this advertising. Im sean bell. The trade deadline is coming up and eagles might want to look at some Wide Receivers. Eagles wild outs dropped a ton of ball with the cowboys and that is something Nelson Agholor is sick of hearing about. It is football. No statistic, in who did this, that is all that matters is to win. That is what this Coaching Staff cares about, what i care about, what we all care about winning football games. Everybody is mad, disappointed and and friday after a tough loss like we just came through and you know, cooler head prevail and we just to have bite our lips sometimes and just suck it up and get to work. College hoops, ap preseason ranking came out and villanova if thing disrespected. They are ranked number four in the country. They are bringing back most of the guys from the Championship Team so they will definite the liz use this as motivation, that is disrespect. They should be number one. All right. That is sports in a minute. Im sean bell. Notice number three in that ranking was university of kansas. Did you note hoist was number three. I wouldnt even see kansas on the list. Back to the agholor, story, wow, nellie, good head line. Wow, pederson takes exception to agholors attitude on drops. You have to catch that ball. Yes. Talking about after the game he was like bleep, bleep, bleep, bleep, talking about his job. Cant pin loss on me. How about that sammy bradford, we knocked him out and he hasnt recovered. Sam bradford and vikings taking on the bears, monday night football last night the for sam, it was more of the same, what the eagles gave him. He was under constant pressure. Did you see that. He was dabbing. Come on. So nothing going on offense. Sam was sacked five times. We got him six times i think. Vikings lost for second straight time as well, 20ten. Lets get back to Jefferson Station<\/a> but lets get started with bob. Exactly what does this mean for everybody. 6 02.

Hold on to your transpass, hold on to that, we will get your refund after this mess is over. Heres what is not running. No city buses, no city trolleys, no market frankford or broad street subway. Picture anything in the city limit is in the running this morning. What is running is Regional Rail<\/a> lines. You will see overcrowded conditions, they threw in a few extra express trains on the way, norristown high speed line is running, and suburban buses running with a separate contract, same as trolley routes, 101, 102, paratransit, cct, anyone needing ride for their medical appointment they will run as scheduled but expect delays because they will stuck in the traffic jams. Coming in the city here are Parking Options<\/a>. Check out this deal ten for zero, flat rate have of ten bucks for ten hours at select ppa garages. We have that lincoln our web site and put it on facebook, twitter, instagram pages as well. You have a contingency plan. Car pooling, maybe a chance to give uber, lyft a try for the first time today. Fire up the bike, ten speed from the basements, check with your employer for flex hours and check this out some bigger employees like the city they have an employee shuttle service. They have put in effect shuttle bus that he is will run the same route as broad street sun way and market frankford line. Just show your City Employee<\/a> id if you have jury duty to take, everything is opened, you can use the actual id for jury duty. Speaking of jury duty. Real quickly did you see this anderson guy on twitter, people can use the code septa ride to get a free ride from lyft. Today. I dont know, this is what david says. Have you heard that too. I have not heard that. I dont think they are giving out free septa ride. We will check on that uber and lyft there is a good chance to give that a try if that is your only option. I would give that a shot. We have speedometer readings on the schuylkill, i95. We have had an accident at i95 northbound at allegheny. We are seeing volume draize into center city. Somebody downtown right outside septa headquarters, steve keeley what are you hearing on septa headquarters, steve has been out here all morning long, steve. Bobby will take you back tour wedding dj days did you ever play rebel yell by billy idol, all right. Reason i asked that is a lot have of commuters that have billy idol lift, that anchor and that fist that he did. Do you remember lyrics it was in the mid not hour she cried more, more, more. We have willie brown, and he cried, strike, strike, strike. Here he is. We are going to stay here, ape go upstairs and keep seeing if we can get it the done, tonight, but im not optimist continuing that we can. We have Economic Issues<\/a> as far as pensions. You have health care. You also have things that come to driver fatigue. We need to to something not have our operators running down the street half asleep. Most people they work from nine to 5 00, adequate time to rest. My people dont do that. We have to fight for those rights. Im wait forgo the bus and get kick off the bus. They went on strike at 12 00 on the dot. Im like dam how willie get home. Because they waited until the last minute. It is not fair for a whole lot of people that have have to catch the bus home. But i just got to change my shift, go home and start working eight to 4 00 and it will not last long so we can all get together, and get to work because we are paying a fortune to be out of work. Well, this may be the last working septa bus you see for a while, courtesy of our video, just past midnight, strike call, driver and sports light off above the windshield. Switched to it off duty. Park it pack in the the depot and join us on the picket line. We have in clue how long this strike could last but they have gone from six days to 40 days since good day philadelphia has been on the air for the past 21 years. So day one i can tell you from our experience covering these strikes always the worst. So many hold out hope a deal will get done. When strike is called after everyone is asleep at midnight like it was many now just waking up to find out no subway, to bus, no trolleys running. So no way to get to school offer work. So attendance at schools is always way down. Many call out sick from jobs. Those that do show up, show up very, very late. Mike you are on time today by the way. You are on time, everybody else late. Preps and bosses we hope will be as understanding as mikes boss is, every time he stays out late covering events. We know you are to go work late at night, but we give you a pass, all right. So mike, i dont know if you remember billy idol and rebel yell but there is a lot of rebels yelling today. Yes, nice day for a white wedding. Steve, we have been asking people how to get to work and school. You might have seen this guy his name is on twitter my name is mike. He said i drove my wife and friend from Northern Liberties<\/a> to Jefferson Station<\/a> just to get a train. Right by steve. Where he is right the now. Another guy, says i need septa im hoping strike will only last for one day. So true. This story is not about the machines, trolleys an buses but people, pedro says i work and get paid 12 an hour. Cant afford not to work and cant afford to get to work, trying to find friend to take me to work. Where is the love for the working class. Everybody is scrambling to get to work and school right now. If you have any questions what you can do tweet us using fox 29 good day. We are working with bob. We will get answers. We will help you out anyway we can. Should we check out 59th and callowhill, that could be a, well, it looks like people are staying warm, that is about it. Hi karen. Hi mike, sorry, i thought you stopped talking. Were on the picket line what we see is not area where people are coming to get the on the bus, but people coming to drive a bus. They threw another log on. We have six people out here right now going on strike because they walked off. Steve was talking about everybody has to get places. Problem is it is hard, expense turf take uber. The that is something depending upon how much you earn that could be your entire paycheck. You cannot just ubering all over the place. People relion septa, Public Transit<\/a> to get where they need to go and make our city run. For parent as a mom it is really difficult when your kid have school and cold morning and you have to walk them to school if they dont have Public Transit<\/a> the and fine a way to get them in on and then a lot of them are the ones riding on septa. That is another complication for all of the parents trying to scramble and figure that one out. If you can car pool, work out something with your friend, first day and steve touched on people didnt think it would happen. It is here and happening. We need to text, call our friend saying who can ride today, we will all share gas. The what is happening with uber, were discussing this a moment ago they are allowing people to do a sharing. You have to be just one person in the uber now you you can do that uber pool where you can pick up people from different stops all nearby. That can help group of people from one neighborhood get in and split the cost of that. You are in the paying for a 30dollar ride you are sharing that between six people or five people tea penning how many fit in the car. That way that would lower the cost. That just went in effect with that one. We are by the bus depot, picketers and we will have more coming up all morning long because traffic is really picking up. Back inside to you. When you go he talk to those folks, what is the biggest Sticking Point<\/a> and we will talk to you. 6 40. Bill cosbys lawyers make another move to get Sexual Assault<\/a> case dropped.

Since her accusations were made public dozens of women accused the 79 yearold of similar acts dating back to the 1960s, many of those cases have not come against cosby because of the statute of limitations in other states. Legal experts say they do in the the spec the case to be tossed out but we could expect the judge to allow evidence this like cosbys deposition from a civil case involving constand back in 2005. It is expect to last two days, so we will be here to see exactly what happens. And we will take you when we see him. Thanks so much, lauren. Well, we need something fun, all right.
