We were briefed by the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho. The center located there's a locational hub for our federal firefighting resources of the region. And we just surveyed some of the damage of the calendar Fire here in California. Which in less than a month has wiped out for 200,000 acres and 1000 structures. Holmes. Precious memories destroyed. Air quality to degrade it. Local economy stopped in his tracks and nearly 200 people in the area forced to live in shelters. Everyone in Northern California. Knows the time of the year when you can't go outside. When the air will be filled with smoke. The sky will turn Popular take shade of orange. Parents worried about keeping their Children safe in a pandemic. Worry about air quality as well. Thus far. The nationwide over 44,000 wildfires have burned nearly 5,300,000 acres. Roughly the size of the state of New Jersey. In California. This year, more than 2.2 million acres have burned. The Dixie Fire burned nearly one million alone. And we're working closely with governor newsman to make sure California has every resource every resource available to keep families safe. And the governor has led this state with poise and strong leadership. He's been an innovator and items of for long term solutions. And he and I are both optimistic. These fires are blinking code red for our nation, beginning frequency and ferocity. And we know what we have to do. And it starts with our firefighters putting their lives on the line and rugged and dangerous conditions. I never forget coming out to Arizona in 2013. To speak at the memorial of the 19 Granite Mountain hotshots who gave their lives. Firefighters. Aren't one unmatched in their bravery. That's why I took the action I did in June to ensure that all federal firefighters earned at least the minimum wage and we're working on fundamentally changing the benefits that are available to them. FEMA has approved 33 fire management assistance grants help Wester states pay for the cost of fighting these off of fires. We used the Defense Production Act. To address the shortage and fire hoses. Because of the pandemic. We found ourselves in the situation. Where there's a backlog. In an awful lot of things. We restarted the idle production line in Oklahoma, bring him back to work. And delivering thousands of new feet of new fire hoses to the front lines hard to believe, short on fire hoses. In addition, We've tapped the OD, the Department of Defense. Pretend aircraft. 20 c one thirties modular airborne firefighting systems. With those systems and to help our fires suppression. The RC. 26 aircraft to provide critical imagery from space. We're based in California, and they're now flown over 1000 missions across the West. 250 active duty military troops. Ground on the ground it Dixie fire in California, working alongside firefighters. We're sharing satellite imagery help detect.

But of course, uh, Tomorrow is the recall vote in California. That's the day John Family goes to the polls right tomorrow. Tomorrow? Yes, Tomorrow. You didn't do any early voting in person? No. Yeah. Went on to do any person early voting? No, no. Well, over with. No, no, no, It's different. You can't trust that right? I just want to go in the day of and vote. Uh, personally with the machine. That's what you'll be okay to counter to see if there's actually anybody left to vote tomorrow. That cares. Yeah, I think I figured there would be no lines tomorrow. I think you're right. Did you find your polling place? They don't get all mad because same polling place. I mean, they have moved to it is I thought they were doing boats centers again. No, no, there's there's signs all over this rec center, so oh, already already scouted out the area today. Alright, let's bring out Alex Stone ABC news for KF five because this afternoon, in fact not too far from out. Biden will be in California to campaign for Newsome and also to do some stops over the wildfires. Let's bring them on. Hey there, guys. Yeah. In fact, right now, this is what it sounds like. Is Biden died? President Biden. Is that callow? Yes. The emergency operations center in Sacramento and He's speaking to the callow Yes, workers who are masked up and sitting at their desks in kind of what looks like mission control of Houston for NASA, where it's Roa desk after row of desk and they're listening to him speak. He arrived on Air Force one about 10 minutes ago, and he was met at the bottom of the stairs by Governor Newsom is going to be campaigning for later tonight in Long Beach and Then they hopped in the presidential SUV. Not in the beast. Not in the limo like thing, but in a proof suburban like vehicle and then they took off. Callow. Yes. So he's speaking right now he's doing his thing is the fire stop a cover so they can justify the tax money spent. Because otherwise spending tax money to campaign for Newsom is really tawdry. So they came up with a personal appearance, which really is pointless. What's he got? It wouldn't be unheard of. Yeah, it wouldn't be unheard of for a president to only do campaign stopped it to go and do it. I think more than anything, it was. Well, this is on our way. And they stopped in Idaho for first in Boise. That is where Nifc the National Interagency Fire Center is, which is the federal Command Center for Wildfire response. So that was on the way they were on the ground there. He toured around there, he heard from fire commanders talking about how bad the situation is Everything that nifc on the federal side resource is planning aerial assaults. All of that comes out of nifc in Boise, so they were able to stop. They're on their way here. Now he is in Northern California. Typically a president Whether it be a hurricane or a wildfire of the magnitude of the killed or fire or the Dixie fire. They would make a stop up there. So he is making that stop. He's going to do an aerial tour here in a little while where he flies over South Lake Tahoe and looks at all the homes that are gone. Then he'll come down to Southern California. I'm not trying to be a jerk. But what good does that do that he flies over? A million acres of burned out forest that you know it's what presidents do whether it be President. Biden President Trump President Obama, President Bush. They all do it, whether it be a hurricane and going over flooded neighborhoods or You know, you think back to Katrina and then Bush famously flying over New Orleans at that time, he's going to do it today. Now. I mean, the White House says that what he's doing on the ground is finding out what firefighters need what he told firefighters in Boise today was That he has their full support while here. Here's what he told them directed my administration to provide for pay bonuses and incentives to ensure every federal firefighter because that's the only authority I have makes at least $15 an hour. I mean, I should make a hell of a heck of a lot more. So he caught himself saying Hell there, but other than that, he No of them that he's going to. He's going to make sure they get paid more. He wants the minimum wage to go up. He told him. Look, we're we're here for you for whatever you need. The other interesting thing that the White House announced today that was quietly done back in early August, and we didn't know about it until now is that the president enacted the Defense Production Act. To get a fire hose production going on in a nonprofit in Oklahoma City. Apparently, the Forest Service says they have not been able with all of these wildfires and So often they cut and run when they're out on a wildfire. They got to get out of there. You'll see when you go on a wildfire. It is incredible the amount of hose that that's left everywhere they end up dry after the fact going back and rolling it up, but a lot of it. Disappears. And so they had this nonprofit that they say had gone defunct that they claim it was paid jobs that they got them going. And they made 415 miles of fire hose that then went to the federal firefighters. So his point in Boise was, we're here for you anything you need. You guys are the heroes, and that's kind of what he's telling that Saleh we have the fire service has been Wait, chronically underfunded for many, many years. And everybody in government after this last round of fires, has admitted that so it's nice to stand up and say I'm with you guys, I support you, But are they actually going to spend real big money? Because they haven't claimed covering many advances. They are a lot of that would come down to Congress, but he claims that they're going to, but we'll see when it's really boots on the ground, and that's been even in California, where there'd be less. There's some of it would be federal money, but more state money. You've got a lot of firefighters that are hoping to see Governor Newsom go by by tomorrow. Because they don't feel like the support has been there. So whether it be on the federal side, which was what Nifc was all about. Now, at the callow Yes, which is the state firefighters that the president is talking to, and governor Newsom is in the room as well as And Sir president is addressing them. That money is is a big part of this and you may not know this but two firefighters. Federal firefighters really only make minimum wage. Yeah, Some of the you'd be surprised even the California firefighters Cal fire whether doing now we just did a big story with him a couple of weeks ago. I'm pretty incredible what they're doing. Because we don't have as many only a fraction of the number of inmate firefighter crews any longer because the low level inmate firefighters who are in for mostly nonviolent offenses, they have now been let out because of current California law. Cal fire is having to hire What would have been the inmate firefighters as full time firefighters..

Like strange science, uh, kind of And then she actually won something with scissor. They won something for best duo or best collaboration. I think it was and say they had to come out, and one of them had to try to hug the other one. While she's dressed like a giant worm creatures, they it she does look like what is that?

What are those letters even mean to people and I had to explain to her like in the old days we used to watch. Um, I don't know. We used to watch. Electric Avenue. The video of it and I explained what it was and why we would watch it. And then the top 10 video countdown. Oh, yeah, like the people that were involved with that sort of thing, And she knows Kennedy and I can explain Well, Kennedy really rose to prominence working at MTV, and it just didn't compute for her like he sent YouTube personalities. There were MTV VJs. Yeah. Yes, That's exactly correct. Now. There were some amazing things that I saw last night that It was at Barclays Center in Brooklyn. There's some pretty amazing things that were going on in terms of the production of the show itself. The video, uh, computer generated images that were being integrated into the show were amazing. And I we have not seen that and then awards show like that before. And I am assuming we're going to see some more of that when we get into like Emmy Awards Oscars next year. Obviously, those types of things are going to be incredible. Um, but, you know, it was also some of the same. How? How close to actual intercourse on stage. Can I get without actually having intercourse on stage and then call it the V Emma's and be like, Oh, that's groundbreaking. Were you also upset with Elvis's gyrations? Yeah. Back in the day.

But also, why is Connor McGregor wasting breath on machine gun, Kelly? Just it's all that guy. You just want to punch him in the throat. Every time I do every time I see machine gun Kelly, he just has that look about him where it's like, What are you doing?

"You see the backup? The south of Boise, huh? Yeah, There it is. There's a there's a bad watching presidents about ready to leave. Boise, Idaho. He was there, um to talk about, I guess the fires In the West. What else was he? Therefore, What is this? What is this schedule say? Received briefing from federal and state fire officials. At the National Interagency Fire Center in Boise, Idaho. So he's leaving there now, heading down to The old major Air Force base in Sacramento, and he's going to meet With fire officials there. And serve a wildfire damage. I'm not sure where they're bringing them, but they're gonna bring them somewhere. You'll stand in a burned out forest. So this just happened moments ago in the middle of this hearing with Blinken. I don't know the name of this of this congressman. I'm sorry. I've never seen him before, but he's a Republican. So he's going to throw hardballs at blanket. So he's asking these questions about Afghanistan and about leaving in about all this about all that he's doing the typical hardball opposite party sort of questioning. So he then says, Well, In my remaining time. I would like to change subjects. Um, Mr Blinken, Can you confirm that you had an interview with the FBI? And Blinken, who is on in his office on, UH, TV circuit. Gets real big eyed. And goes, Uh, I don't know what you're talking about. No, this congressman says. Can you confirm? If you've had an interview with the FBI, since you have become secretary of state? And he goes, uh I Uh, I'm not comfortable answering that in a public forum. Which means the answer is yes. And million. And so this answer was. I don't know what you're talking about was flat out bald lie. So the congressman says, So can you confirm? That you turned over documents to the FBI regarding Hunter Biden. Okay, now now, Blanket's eyes are like frog eyes. He's he's gone. Uh, so, uh, I don't think about this is an open setting. It's inappropriate to respond. So he starts again. And the Chairman Meeks. Got from New York. He butts and it goes on. This is off subject. This is about Afghanistan. So the congressman says, Well, he won't answer the questions about Afghanistan. So I thought I'd ask him about documents that the State Department sent over to the FBI and that he was interviewed by them. And The chairman makes goes. The time has expired. Alright, next Congressman So I don't know who this guy is, and I don't know what he's talking about, either, but it got my ears up. And you know that the mainstream media won't go anywhere near this. Because it's hunter Biden. So what's up? Why would the State Department Have documents. About Hunter Biden. Now there was that accusation somewhere in there about that crazy laptop story. And the blind computer repairman in Maryland. Um Which started off I mean, that's bizarre right there And then we find out they interviewed the blind. Uh, computer repairman. He wasn't blind. And so now, the question is, Where's the laptop? And there's people saying Well, Russia has it. So I mean, it's so this just adds to the intrigue. About what's up with Hunter Biden and, um Anthony Blinken, just about dropped his teeth. When this congressman asked him about an interview with the FBI, so something from the State Department Was turned over to the FBI. Which I'm Sorry. I So you see, I I've decided some of you wonder about my attitude towards some of these big, controversial stories. My my attitude over the years, as has changed to the point where I I don't get excited about things. Uh, that nothing will happen. That's why when I repeat to you many, many times about the fact that nobody's held accountable for anything in Washington D. C because I've seen too many breathless stories. About somebody in trouble in Washington, D C. And it's everybody's got their underwear in a tight bunch, And then all of a sudden it just disappears. Nothing is ever said again. And I do think that is why people that have been in Washington for a long time. Uh, kind of learned the ropes as the way things go there. You can kind of do what you want to do. Make some money on the side. Get some money under the table. Do a favor for somebody for a law and wind you'll wind up wealthy. But nothing's ever going to happen to you, even if they catch you. And we never found out about Hunter Biden's artwork. And who bought the artwork. And how much they paid. So the hunter Biden story takes another. There's another chapter to your book. Those of you writing about Hunter Biden. Uh, what's this all about? Where Anthony Blinken Just about swallowed his tongue. When this congressman said, What about the interview with the FBI? I don't know what you're talking about. Don't ask me about it. Hilarious. Um, you got a rocket van gone. Because we, um Abuse Seen Rocket Ben, Have you seen him? He's lost £200. It's gonna be a long, long time brings me around and get to buy my think I am at home. No, no, no. He's a rocket man. All right, and he launched two Rockets over the weekend long range missiles. Uh, I don't have time for Jack Keane does anyway, We'll get to that. They are long range missiles that can carry nukes and they can go about 1000 Miles, so it won't hit us, but it was certainly hit South Korea. And Japan, and they're both worried as can be so they he's launching a couple more rockets. I'm swear he's lost. £200 is almost unrecognizable. But that's uh we'll get Jack Keane to chime in. Maybe after the top of the hour. But he's added.
