okay, he's done it again. a shop in philadelphia got a cool gift from oakland native and actor tom hanks. >> if you don't know, hanks is a vintage typewriter collector, and he surprised a shop owner at philly dive writing with an unexpected gift, an autographed 1953 manual typewriter. included was a her from hanks, "take good care of it and i hope

it will keep doing its job for another 100 years." i assume it was written on the typewriter. it's originally from east germany and is worth a lot of money, but the shop owner says they're never going to sell. >> if you don't know what a typewriter is, it's this machine where you hit those keys and you do it on paper, people. you can stream our newscast on roku, samsung tv plus, and xumo. raj and janelle, what's coming up? >> that's cool, a typewriter. >> how about a pen? people don't use pens anymore. >> i think people use pens. here's what we're working on. guns on campus at a south bay school. it's the second time in less than a week this has happened. the type of gun found has police and school leaders very concerned. a big day for the biden administration. the president officially announcing he will run for re-election. tonight we highlight the woman selected to run that campaign and the special ties she holds to the bay area. we take a look at how likely

it is that president biden gets re-elected next year and the possible edge his opponents could have against him. thanks for joining us. i'm janelle wang. >> i'm raj mathai. it is official, president biden announcing today on social media that he is running for re-election next year. >> that means the campaign formally begins now. the buzz isn't just about the announcement but also who he chose to run his campaign. julie chavez rodriguez, a california native, granddaughter of civil rights leader caesar chavez. here's damian trujillo. >> when i ran for president four years ago, i said we're in a battle for the soul of america. >> reporter: the announcement via twitter in the early morning hours, launching president joe biden's re-election campaign. this is the woman the president chose to run that campaign, julie chavez rodriguez, granddaughter of cesar chavez.

>> this is one important lesson from my grandfather. i had so many. he would always say, "there's no substitute for hard work." we're accustomed to that. >> reporter: that is part of an interview back in the fall inside the west wing. back then, julie was the white house director of intergovernmental affairs and senior adviser to the president. now she's been tapped to make sure the president of the united states wins re-election. >> we're extremely proud. you know, julie has lived a life of service all of her life. and she's -- she once again has an opportunity to create transformal change here in our country. >> reporter: arturo rodriguez, president emeritus of the united farm workers, julia's father. he knows the job will be tough, but he's comforted knowing his daughter has lifelong training from some of the nation's greatest organizers.

>> she's going to do whatever it takes to be able to accomplish and achieve what's important for our country, what's important for our people, for the american public. >> reporter: julie is a cal alum. now the president will rely on her to shape what many pundits say could be one of the most challenging campaigns in recent history. those who know her say she certainly has a grassroots organizing know how, work ethic, and humility to do it. >> a deep-seated commitment to real public service. to ensuring that we are living up to the responsibilities that we've been entrusted with. >> reporter: a woman who spent her early years fight are fighting for farm workers now running the campaign for the most powerful person in the world. the president's announcement came in a three-minute video on social media titled, "freedom." the video previewed top campaign

issues with scenes from the january 6th attack on the capitol and abortion rights protests. after announcing his re-election bid this morning, the president delivered what sounded like a campaign speech in front of a crowd of union workers in washington, d.c. >> we're on the cusp of major change! we're creating jobs again! manufacturing has come alive again! people can afford decent health care. towns that have been left for dead are coming alive again because of you all and what we're doing. >> how likely will president biden get re-elected? our political analyst larry gerston is joining us now. we were talking about a new nbc poll, and 75% of democrats want someone else to run. i mean, i'm sure age is a factor. president biden is 80 right now. if he ran again and won, he'd be 86 by the end of his second term. >> you're right. age is a factor. of course, it would be the same thing if president trump gets nominated.

so that's kind of canceled out both ways. but there are people who are unhappy with president trump for a lot of things. the economy right now is starting to slow down. it's taken a long time to finally get out of covid what took so long, some people will say. immigration is an issue for some people, no question about that. the world itself, the precarious nature of what's going on in terms of ukraine, china. there are a lot of reasons people can be upset about president biden. there are also a lot of reasons people can be upset about former president trump. >> he is the incumbent. how much of an edge does he have because of that? >> that's the interesting thing, janelle. you know, there once was a time when people said, you're an incumbent, you're going to get re-election no problem. we did research back 75 years. there have been 10 times an incumbent had the opportunity as president to run for a second term. you know what, they won seven, lost three of those times. the third of those losses came in the form of or the person of

donald trump. is it a slam dunk? no. is it a good likelihood? yes. but you have to think about all the variables in between, some of which i just talked about. then you think about the challenger and the baggage he carries, former president trump. and some people say quite a bit. at the end of the day, janelle, what we're looking at right now is this dystopian picture that's really portrayed by both sides against the other. it doesn't make people get a lot of warm fuzzies. right now that's the way things are looking. >> what do you expect from the biden campaign this time around? something similar to what we saw four years ago? >> biden's got one thing going now that he didn't have four years ago and it's big. that is accomplishments, the infrastructure package, the climate change package, all of these other packages. big, big bills that came out the first couple of terms. those are big things. people are being put to work building things, climate getting better, alternative energy coming up. those kinds of things that

people see. unfortunately right now, it's not happening as fast as it might. but he's going to spend much of his time when he's out there on the trail talking about what has been started and what has to be completed. that's the kind of thing an incumbent does. if he or she has something to brag about. in that sense, biden does have something to talk about. don't think you're going to see him on the campaign trail per se for a year or so. instead, he's going to be giving speeches now and again in various places, but really pointing out all the hard work that's going on. i'm an active, ongoing president, which by the way also helps to discount in some people's minds the concern they might have about age. >> okay, and republicans will be criticizing him, talking about inflation, job cuts, and the economy. larry gerston, political analyst, thank you so much. a man shot and killed while trying to rob multiple victims. that's what san francisco police believe caused that deadly weekend shooting in north beach.

one man killed, four others shot late sunday night. police are now identifying the man killed as 23-year-old isaiah thomas of sassoon city. investigators say thomas along with multiple other suspects were attempting to rob people at gunpoint. in the ensuing fight, thomas, a specced suspect, and three of the victims were shot. the second suspect identified as malachi lafreedy of oakland was later arrested. the other victims are expected to survive. an oakland police investigator is facing charges accused of committing perjury and bribing a w witness d durin murder trial. the d.a.'s office says officer fong tran lied about knowing a key witness in the trial and admitted to providing her with cash payments. that key witness later told the d.a.'s office she felt pressured to testify by officer tran. he's also facing charges for attempted bribery of another witness in the same case.

the two men convicted of the murder had their sentences overturned last year. the police officers association says tran was already cleared of any wrongdoing during a previous investigation. the poa president saying in part, "this case is not about seeking jus advertise or ensuring public safety, rather, it appears to be an attempt by the district attorney, pamela price, to undermine the credibility of dedicated public servants and facilitate the release of convicted murderers." the d.a.'s office says it will now review at least 125 cases that officer tran investigated. for the second time in less than a week, police say a south bay student brought a loaded gun onto a school campus. this time it happened in morgan hill. the boy was arrested minutes later after a 911 call. as nbc bay area's ian cull explains, the type of gun is adding another layer of concern to this case. >> reporter: classes were back

to normal a day after police swarmed the campus, called when a 16-year-old student got into an altercation with another student and was believed to be armed. investigators say he ran off campus before they arrived but was tracked down a few blocks away. he was arrested and the officers say he had a loaded 9 millimeter handgun. some parents called their kids when they heard. >> it was a little bit alarming. i kept myself calm and focused on my daughter to keep herself calm and be safe. >> reporter: central is a continuation high school with about 100 students. police say no shots were fired, no one was hurt at any point. neighbors have been wondering why they saw so many police cars around campus. >> it gives me goosebumps. to think we're at that stage. it just escapes me. >> reporter: officers say the firearm the teen had is known as a ghost gun, a growing concern nationwide. >> comprised of components you

can obtain on the internet. most of these components, actually all of these components, are unserialized which makes the firearm essentially undetectable. >> reporter: police searched the teen's san martin home and found other ghost gun parts as well. >> extremely troubling. we'd like to know where he got it from, obviously. and how many are currently out in our neighborhoods. >> reporter: as of tonight, investigators believe the 16-year-old obtained the gun parts himself. it's still unclear why he brought it to school. it's the second time in a week in the south bay a student brought a loaded gun to campus. last friday, san jose police arrested a student at hoover middle school and seized the gun. there's no motive yet in that case either. the principal sent a letter home to parents saying she will be reviewing the facts of this case to determine "if the highest level of disciplinary action is legally permissible." thousands of people have had

the companies have not said where this new factory will be located. gm is scrapping production of its top-selling electric car, the chevy bolt. the reason, the batteries. the company says they're an older design. instead, gm will focus on evs with a new type of battery that will be included in that soon to be launched electric eco-nox and blazer suvs. the announcement comes amid record production and sales of the bolt. folks who hit snags with airlines have the right to speak up. >> if you hit a brick wall, you can open a federal case to get results. it can happen. here's our consumer investigator, chris chmura. >> when your flight is endlessly delayed, suddenly canceled, or no one at the airline picks up the phone, contact your air carrier and hold them accountable. our consumer database is full of complaints from people who did

exactly that and got nowhere. that's when uncle sam might go to bat for you. how it works when you gripe to the government. before you start, collect your thoughts and documents. write up a condensed timeline of events. add in a narrative that explains where the airline dropped the ball, how it impacted you, and what you expect now. don't embellish. you don't want to be caught lying to uncle sam. writing down your saga is important because the d.o.t. only takes airline complaints in writing. either by mail with a letter to this address, or online at transportation.gov/airconsumer. in fairness, we'll note the ta about airline service, though as you can imagine, very few people take the time to send in a positive review when everything goes well. the online form is pretty simple. your name, airline, travel date, so on. there's a small box to explain the situation, limited to 3,000 characters. but below it you can add an attachment. here's what i would do. combine your timeline, your

narrative, and your documents into one tidy document using a word processor. then attach it to your complaint. finally, submit. what happens next? government reps will investigate and ask the airline for its take. d.o.t. says it requires airlines to acknowledge consumer complaints within 30 days of receiving them and to send consumers written responses addressing these complaints within 60 days of receiving them. also let our "responds" team know, but the airlines aren't required by law to respond to us. >> always good advice. jeff ranieri, awesome warm weather. >> no need to fly anywhere, stay here. >> right? it's always hard when you've got a vacation because the bay area is so beautiful. >> really good weather. >> it is a big, big payoff after the rainfall season we had. all of that historic wet weather. and hang on, even though there's heat coming, we also still have some rain in that seven-day
