but, actually, in the wren, the wren i put in a good priest just for badness.eah, 0k. so you've broadly steered clear of the church as an institution... yeah, as an institution. i don't really deal with institutions. i deal with people and atmosphere, isuppose, yeah. absolutely. and one way in which you deal with people that, again, is really interesting to me because i think you do it with great nuance, is you write very directly about sex. i do. yeah. and, again, in this book, it goes into very difficult territory... it does. ..where the lines are sort of blurred between abusive behaviour, consensual behaviour, women who have agency and then sort of use that agency to inflict pain on themselves in a way which the outside readerfinds very difficult to deal with. right. yeah. 0k. yeah. i mean, the thing about all my characters is they all have different kinds of sex. it's not all the same kind of monolithic or uniform sort of thing. the young character, nell, i was really taken and intrigued by a kind of move in modern female writing and in novels about... ..di

wren hired her a couple of years later. harris represented san francisco in all family and child -related matters, including foster care, adoptions, and abuse. >> you were dealing with families and children in stressful circumstances , and i think that is important for anybody in politics at a high decision level , who really have that kind of a broad understanding. kamala has that kind of a broad understanding. >> luis says harris is straightforward and determined, but also says that she remembers the vice president most for her warmness and empathy. >>> democrats are planning to push forward with a virtual rollcall for delegates to choose their nominee before the convention in chicago next month. they will meet to discuss how it will work on wednesday. many of the democratic delegates pledged to president biden are already throwing support behind the vice president. they are not required to, but we spoke with some northern california delegates who say it is hard to imagine a serious challenge. >> friendly, it is hard to s

joining us now national correspondent for "politico," the great adam wren.nks so much for waking up. i really appreciate it. first, let's start with donald trump. what do you make of him upping his comments on kamala harris and yet still going after president biden despite biden having exited the race? can he just not let go? >> yes, sam. a few short days ago we were hearing that donald trump was increaingly spiritual at the rnc, that he was a changed person, more serene, seeking to unify the country, and now he's saying that joe biden and kamala harris are bad people. and so i think after an assassination attempt that failed, we can kind of clearly dispel with the idea that he is a changed person. donald trump is always going to be donald trump. but, look, he's also calorically reacting here to polling and to fund-raising data that have him on his heels really for the first time in a year. and so i think that clearly he is reacting to something that he sees changing. you know, he's hearing biden called a hero, which is what he was being called a few days ag

that question about firearms was a key part of the press, wrens. we know they are expecting large numbers, perhaps thousands of protesters. i don't know the latest numbers are that you might be hearing. talk about that and about the rnc plans to make sure this convention is secure. >> you are the milwaukee police chief suggest it was not the decision of the city on whether firearms can be promoted or not because wisconsin is an open carry state. so the area that we are calling the soft perimeter where the public is able to come and go, there are no cars allowed but several blocks are blocked off except pedestrians can come and go as they please. that's outside the hard perimeter which is where we are standing right now. can a hard perimeter, only vips, delegates, credentialed press are able to enter that secure area and no firearms are allowed in the. that's right us to secret service official there overseeing ordination of the rnc convention this week whether based on the request of the governor, the democrat here to expand that no firearms on, th

he advocated for more moderate policies domestically, has criticized wren's morality police and has advocated for better relations with the west. let's bring in international correspondent ralph sanchez. rough, how much change can this new president actually bring to iran?>> so, alex, the president can make change, but it is limited. in the islamic republic of iran, supreme leader who makes all final decisions on all policy issues, both foreign and domestic. when it comes to national security, the president is sort of competing with power with the revolutionary guard corps. he has very little influence over those key national security issues that we talk about, iranian support for those shia militias in iraq and syria, which have been attacking american forces in recent years. the support for hezbollah, the powerful military group that has been battling israel over the israel-lebanon border since october 7th. that isn't to say that the president has no influence at all. the newly elected president masoud pezeshkian has said, he is opposed to the mandatory job law, which means that women have

you've seen the corner where christopher wren, the famous architect who designed the cathedral, is buried. there's a simple plaque on his tomb with a latin inscription that says, if you seek his monument, look around you. in the same way, there could be no better monument to the great bookseller joyce meskis than this beautiful cathedral of books where we're gathered together today. the tattered cover bookstore in conceiving, creating and leading the tattered cover joyce helped to reimagine what a bookstore could be. not just a retail outlet, but a community meeting place, a forum to connect people with important ideas and stories, and a haven for the free expression that is vital to our democracy. joyce's creativity and her leadership inspired and energized booksellers all over the country and booksellers and book lovers and authors and publishers everywhere continue to be in her debt. soon after joyce's passing in december 2022, i came up with the idea of creating a book to honor her legacy, not a biography of joyce, although that would be very interesting, but a book by her admirers, h

it's also near christopher park, near wren avenue and third street. first responders are mobilizing to deal with this fire before it can spread and get out of hand. california's largest wildfire burning right now is exploding in size. it is now covering more than 350,000 acres in butte county, near chico. evacuation orders in butte, tajima and shasta counties are in effect 134 structures destroyed, so far. governor newsom has declared a state of emergency in butte and tehama counties. there is zero containment on this fire. a man faces charges in connection to starting it. witnesses say they saw him push a flaming car over an embankment wednesday afternoon. well, fire crews are getting a bit of relief due to today's cooler conditions. yeah. meteorologist rob mayeda is joining us now. and, rob, you say the wildfire smoke is expected to have a big impact on our air quality this week, possibly for parts of interior northern california. and some of that may try to get into the north bay. but before we get there, here's an example of the weather providing
