<v Speaker 5>he says is missing in the administration of incumbent Mayor

<v Speaker 5>Michelle Woom.

30
00:01:39.719 --> 00:01:44.640

31
00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:48.920
<v Speaker 6>city Hall, to the city budget to be more responsible

32
00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:51.599

39
00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:13.560
<v Speaker 6>there's not a penny to cut. I find that hard

40
00:02:13.560 --> 00:02:14.000
<v Speaker 6>to believe.

45
00:02:29.520 --> 00:02:34.360
<v Speaker 2>alleged abuse at the state's youth detention center. Michael Gilpatrick

46
00:02:34.439 --> 00:02:38.479
<v Speaker 2>accused ten staffers at the center in Manchester of sexual

47
00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:42.680
<v Speaker 2>and physical abuse between nineteen ninety seven and two thousand,

48
00:02:43.120 --> 00:02:48.199

49
00:02:48.439 --> 00:02:52.080
<v Speaker 2>with one of them convicted last year. More than thirteen

50

<v Speaker 2>hundred former residents of the detention center have filed lawsuits

51
00:02:56.400 --> 00:03:01.240

52
00:03:01.280 --> 00:03:04.439

53
00:03:04.479 --> 00:03:08.919

00:03:12.759 --> 00:03:17.280
<v Speaker 2>verdict remains in dispute. The forecast a shower in spots

<v Speaker 2>skies and sixty two degrees. Several Tesla facilities have been

65
00:03:48.599 --> 00:03:52.800
<v Speaker 2>targeted by acts of vandalism in recent weeks. ABC's Morgan

67
00:03:54.360 --> 00:03:57.719

68
00:03:57.840 --> 00:04:00.759
<v Speaker 7>this year, a major cyber truck recalled just this week,

69
00:04:00.960 --> 00:04:03.919
<v Speaker 7>and a growing movement of activists, including a group calling

70
00:04:04.000 --> 00:04:08.080
<v Speaker 7>itself Tesla Takedown Well. They're now planning nationwide demonstrations at

71
00:04:08.120 --> 00:04:11.400
<v Speaker 7>showrooms next week. The bottom line, Tesla under pressure in

72
00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:13.120
<v Speaker 7>the streets and in the markets.

73
00:04:13.319 --> 00:04:17.000
<v Speaker 2>One of those Tesla takedown protests happened today in Boston

74
00:04:17.319 --> 00:04:21.720
<v Speaker 2>at the Tesla showroom on Boylston Street. Demonstrators are calling

75
00:04:21.759 --> 00:04:25.240
<v Speaker 2>on people to sell their Tesla's, dump their stock, and

76
00:04:25.360 --> 00:04:30.079
<v Speaker 2>join the picket lines against Elon Musk. American auto dealers

77
00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:33.959
<v Speaker 2>are facing uncertainty of mid President Trump's trade wars. A

78
00:04:34.040 --> 00:04:37.839
<v Speaker 2>twenty five percent tariff on imported cars and parts is

79
00:04:37.839 --> 00:04:41.959
<v Speaker 2>set to take effect on April second. CBS's Carter Evans

80
00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:45.439
<v Speaker 2>with more even after twenty years selling cars. General manager

81
00:04:45.439 --> 00:04:48.639
<v Speaker 2>Brandon Wishingrad can't find a way to predict how tariffs

82
00:04:48.639 --> 00:04:52.199
<v Speaker 2>would impact prices at his family's niece On dealership. If

83
00:04:52.199 --> 00:04:54.720
<v Speaker 2>a customer comes in now and says, how long are

84
00:04:54.759 --> 00:04:55.560
<v Speaker 2>the prices.

85
00:04:55.240 --> 00:04:57.199
<v Speaker 1>Going to be steady on these cars? What would you

86
00:04:57.240 --> 00:04:59.720
<v Speaker 1>tell them? It's tough to say. We know just as

87
00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:02.120
<v Speaker 1>much as anybody else does. The one thing he can

88
00:05:02.199 --> 00:05:05.639
<v Speaker 1>do is keep inventory. He stopped up for three months,

89
00:05:05.839 --> 00:05:08.600
<v Speaker 1>so all of the cars on this lot right now

90
00:05:08.639 --> 00:05:11.040
<v Speaker 1>are safe from tariffs. Yes, that's correct.

91
00:05:11.279 --> 00:05:15.079
<v Speaker 2>President Trump's reciprocal tariffs are also expected to go into

92
00:05:15.160 --> 00:05:19.399

93
00:05:19.399 --> 00:05:22.519

00:05:33.480 --> 00:05:36.399
<v Speaker 1>Marilynd's North Point High School, where students had to meet
