[crying] >> you can see how the land pushes those numbers. those embers are from another fire. >> when they ask you to

flames engulfed his property. watch this. you are going to be okay, all right? you are going to be okay. oh [bleep]! >> john: inside of a blast furnace in los angeles fire department information officer, rodriguez contact with the latest on the fires. >> sandra: we will get to him in a moment that jonathan hunt from pacific palisades, california, where the flames are reducing streets to ash. you have been bringing us incredible images from there. what is happening right now? >> the fire continues to burn out-of-control. control. this is still not a property-saving exercise for the fire department. they are still in life saving mode right now. at the properties continued to burn one by one.

this one, for instance, we were here a couple of hours ago and this was scanning untouched. points from the neighboring property and embers flew across and this is what you got in just a couple of hours time. if we pan to the left, a tale of three properties if you like air. the next-door neighbor completely destroyed. as so often the chimney standing there and to the right at that, a home for the moment, at least, remains untouched. i saw a gentleman and i assume the owner and a wall coming to the right. we are going to back off from this property just slightly because it is clearly unstable. backup and please get out of here. it is clearly unstable and the walls keep coming down as we have seen throughout the coverage this morning. this one up here, untouched for the moment that the gentleman was just bringing bags full of possessions, putting them into his vehicle. we assume he's getting out of there precisely of what we just

saw. the walls come d down the flames pop up in the embers flight and we get gusting winds again. all they need to land on the roof at the house and that one is likely to go. firefighters as we say are not battling any of the property fire is in this particular street right now because they have more frankly important things to do. and i want to remind everyone this is not a neighborhood we so often go to that is dozens of miles outside of los angeles, the city where we see the fires. this is in the heart of l.a. so densely packed. take a look up the street as far as you can see up the street, every single property destroyed. when they say a thousand structures, we are talking hundreds and hundreds of homes. as we swing over to bryan's right now, more destroyed homes and's slightly surreal scene in the front yard and i'm presuming

the front yard, a patio, dinner table with two candelabras on it and nothing else left here. it is truly an apocalyptic scene as we pan up to the sky. the son has been trying to come out the last few hours here. but you can see it is so badly obscured by these thick clouds of black smoke that continue really to get thicker and thicker as the wind best come up again. as we walked back towards this house where you can see the walls now really are beginning to collapse one by one. so many people have lost their homes, but also so many people have been through absolute terror. the schools were evacuated through the day yesterday. a lot of them have suffered significant damage. palisades high school about a mile down the road from here, my daughter happens to be a senior at that school, thank goodness they were not back in session from break yet. but that school suffered significant damage. it is a 3000-student body

population. if the damage is really bad, those kids could be back to remote learning again for the rest of the semester. so it is having an extraordinary impact. also psychological impact. you have families trying to get out of homes like this as quickly as they can. be so yesterday in an area known as pacific islands, basically one road in there and one road out here to so many people including a friend of my daughter's trying to get out. the road got completely blocked and people started abandoning their vehicles and ran for their lives. that meant anybody behind them could not get out here to my daughter's friends family were told by the firefighters, we can't do anything right now. we can't get you down this road. go back to your home that we will do everything we can to protect our home. they were hunkered down with flames literally at their door. that is a tale told by so many families.

thankfully, they did get out here to the loss of life kept so far to a minimum. these claims continued to burn and continued to destroy a house after house in the palisades. the wind gust set to for hours and hours and longer john and sandra. the firefighters have a long, long road ahead and the people of the pacific palisades, which is largely destroyed as a neighborhood have extraordinary scenes to come back to when they are allowed back. bit is anybody's guess when they will get back into the neighborhoods and sadly find scenes like this one right here, john and sandra. >> sandra: first and foremost, place to be safe, jonathan. this is incredible what is happening in real-time there. our hearts go out to you, your family, your daughter. this is a personal story for so many of you right there. these are your neighborhoods and your communities. >> they are. >> sandra: with the walls

coming down, jonathan, in real-time, this will continue to aid the fires that are happening there. jonathan, to the best that we can say, no one is fighting the pirates right now. >> not a fire truck in sight here. i want to point you back to this house where we saw, which was not yet touched. the gentleman i was mentioning, you can see his vehicle and he has the trunk open. he keeps running out piling things and there appear to i saw him run back in. here he goes again, taking a picture from his walls now and a piece of art. this is being repeated again and again because this man knows it will take literally a couple of embers from his house next to him burning for his own property to go up. i don't want to interrupt him when he's literally running for his life. we will let him do what he needs to do. but that is a scene being

repeated thousands upon thousands of times over the last 24 hours now has people are literally been running for their lives from this neighborhood, sandra. >> sandra: i mean, jonathan, that is an example of someone literally running. think you for showing him packing the back of his car. jonathan, we will check in with you shortly. thank you very much periods. >> think you, sandra. >> john: by drake as a public information for los angeles county fire department and thank you for being with us and we know how busy you are. have you ever seen anything like this before? >> no, know this is definitely a first for me. i've been in several fires and recently a fire here in franklin in this area, i have never seen anything like this. to the situation and the winds are extreme and that conditions continue to worse for the firefighters out there and also for the community.

>> john: my first expense with a fire in california little more than then a few years and the cannon fire a month later. what we see now and palisades is very much like what we saw in the mystic hill neighborhood of the entire neighborhood and heal full of houses. must have been a hundred houses with the exception of one got wiped off of the map in much the same and the topanga canyon as well. that was more than 30 years ago but this keeps happening. is this the fact of life in california, or are we missing something? >> yes, it is a very urban environment. we also have a connection with the interface there. it creates situation like this where people are living literally in that area in the canyon. so it creates and relate, relate

terrible fire conditions. that is what we are seeing right now. >> john: they were a something encouraging they are seen onto the screen right now and i believe it is a live xref a helicopter in the air appeared to because have the intensity of the santa ana winds coming from the high desert, you have not been able to fly. do you know if you can get an aircraft up in earnest this afternoon? >> i believe yes. i believe currently we have an aircraft deployed on the side doing water drops with the eastham plank of the fires. we hope that conditions, those conditions improve and the winds died down just a bit just enough to get the aircraft up in the air and to be able to attack the fire with many resources as possible. >> john: we heard the press conference los angeles county fire chief as well as the city of los angeles fire chief. when it comes to this palisades fire, as well as the eaton fire,

i mean, there is no percentage under control here to typically when we hear about california wildfires, 5% or 10% control and making headway. this thing is so big and blew up so fast and my understanding is it is taking literally every piece of fire equipment from the reserves to put on the front lines here. how do you attack a fire like this particularly with the winds blowing as quickly as they are? >> well, we are so in the beginning stages right now. we are so focused right now on lives. we are doing our best to make sure that those people and the residents have those areas are leaving and making sure they are not in any danger. our main focus is the property and we are doing our best with the resources we have georgia but as you mentioned, the wind

driven fire just is impossible to predict. and extreme conditions and women's, who knows. we are doing our best to make sure we don't lose any lives on the fires. >> john: it is tragic that two people lost their lives in the eaton fire. remarkable no loss of life in the palisades fire thus far despite more than a thousand homes have burned down. to what do you attribute that? >> i think in the past, we have seen some players in this area just recently about a month ago, we had to franklin fire the fire service has done a good job on communicating and educating the public, especially in the cannon area how dangerous it is to get in and out through those small streets. as you saw it earlier yesterday, we sell vehicles stop and we had

to get bulldozers in there to make way for a fire service inches up in those areas. i think they are educated. they are able to evacuate the fire. >> john: we have land maps and the winds blowing 30 miles an hour through that area. typically you hope for the winds to die down and you made it beat to go out and help you fight the fire. any sign that will happen 24-48 hours? >> things are not looking great for us and that conditions when the best 60-80 miles an hour. and we don't see actual change or a significant change in the next 24 hours. we hope you get a little break in the middle of the day today. but they will continue throughout the night, especially with the wind shift. we will continue to get all the resources we canned out and try to get this fire under control.

>> john: marco rodriguez with the county fire department, we thank you for taking time out with us. >> definitely, thank you for having me. >> john: our prayers are with you all. >> sandra: a live shot after a live shot after live shot showing absolute fires out of control and causing so much destruction as we speak. the winds and a dry year making things worse for the cruise on the ground trying to control the southern california wildfires that hurricane-forest wins with gusts 100 miles an hour feeling it. it could be a days before the e land that stays down. meteorologist adam klotz is joining us live. what can you tell us? sandra really, really powerful winds and you see on the high end 100-mile-per-hour winds and 90 mile-per-hour winds and we have seen 80s and 70s. even as we speak in a little lower than the peaks. but you are still looking at

powerful winds gusting 40, 50, 60, 70 miles an hour across the entire region. at that is enough to move the virus quickly and as we know the northern hills north of los angeles largely, here is where they currently are in a huge swath of this area as these continue to spread and continue to grow. you are looking quite large areas north of los angeles where at least an order at the evacuation or warning for evacuations where you need to be paying attention in case you ultimately get the order to get out of those areas. tilt the wind alerts continue until wednesday. we are looking at wind gusts 60-80 miles an hour across most of this region. now, there is a little bit of good news. you are stuck with it today but as we began to get into the overnight hours, they don't go away but that winds back down 60-70 miles an hour down to 10-20 miles an hour. actually, the winds less

powerful than today. the air is bone dry but does improve conditions and today the fire outlook is extreme. tomorrow still initial and still tough to fight. but you are looking at critical levels. slightly lower as the winds back down a little bit. friday, not as strong as today but the winds took up so we look at fire alerts from today through all the way through friday as the air continues to be very dry. this is a developing portion of this, sandra. air quality alerts continue to be posted. los angeles proper in the city itself not seen a fire downtown but look at the air quality alerts. the winds out of the north pushing the smoke to the south. we are getting hazardous readings from los angeles and some of the areas north of los angeles. so folks will need to stay inside across the entire region. >> sandra: all right, adam adam, thank you very much.

we will check back in shortly. thanks, adam. now this. >> the gulf of america, what a beautiful name. it is appropriate. it is appropriate. >> john: president-elect trump adding to the gulf of mexico to his to-do list but can he expand the influence around the world? keith kellogg with special envoy of russia points us to live. >> sandra: another live look at the fires in and around los angeles. thousands of homes and buildings already destroyed. the may be yet to come. >> let's get out of here. whatever i lose i lose. >> it is just so sad. i feel for everyone that hastry lost property and fires. i have never been.n this close. when i think of the veteran out there that needs to refi his home, he may want to purchase and we can help them and provide that financial solution for them and their families.

>> sandra, thank you for having me and the answer is no. i will not get and conversation i have had with the president or any team out. i do know this, he wants this war to end and it is carnage and he knows it is a tough one and he said that yesterday in the press conference. he is committed to it and i know i'm on the clock necklace back to the nfl draft days the atlanta falcons on the clock. i'm on the clock and he is on the clock as well because he wants to end it as quickly as he can. when you look at the damage and what is happening in ukraine and the casualties alone are enormous. the russian casualties and ukrainian casualties, this is where it stands. i really do have a lot of confidence in his ability to actually get to a position where this war is actually over. and i think people need to understand that he's not trying to get something to putin or to the russians. he is trying to save ukraine and

sovereignty. he will make sure it is equitable and that it is fair. he said that repeatedly. both in t the trump tower and my said at the press conferences. i don't want to double jenny think the president says or doesn't say because he speaks for himself. i do not speak for him. we have had an opportunity to talk about it and we will have more after the 20th of january quinn officially the president and not president-elect. >> sandra: in the meantime the press conference where he said a lot and in this moment he blames biden's mistakes and negotiation for the war in ukraine and says this. >> a big part of the problem is russia for many, many years long before putin said you could never have nato involved with ukraine. now, they have said that and that is written in stone. somewhere along the line, biden said no, they should be able to join nato. russia has somebody on their doorstep and i can understand they are feeling about that. but they were were a lot of

mistakes made in the negotiation. >> sandra: your reaction, general. >> i think he is absolutely right. the biggest mistake that he made was he never engaged in conversations with putin. he has not talked to him over two years. he needs to talk to him. that is one thing the president does, he talks to adversaries alike. he knows it is a tough one but he knows you need to talk to them to get to in-state and that is what he will do. we will set t the for the president and talking to president putin and prime minister zelenskyy as well. i think they will come to a solvable solution in the near term. when i say near term, i would like to set a goal personal level, professional level and say 100 days and move back, if there is a way to do this in the near term to make sure the solution is solid and sustainable and that this war ends and so that we stop the

carnage. i think that will be very, very important to do. it will be important for national security. it is a part of the national interest in europe as well and the globe as well. >> sandra: general, president-elect everybody talking with this moment in the press conference when he made these comments on greenland. listen. >> we need greater than for national security purposes. i have been told that for a long time. you get rid of that artificially drawn line and you take a look at what that looks like and it would also be much better for national security. and again, we basically protect canada. looked, the panama canal is vital to our country. it is being operated by china, china! and we gave the panama canal to panama. we didn't give it to china. >> sandra: final thought from you on all of that, general. >> quickly, to things with panama, the language group is a chinese group running the panama canal. they have headquarters in cologne and basically do rent

that canal and the present is right about that. but greenland, people forget, president andrew johnson tried to buy greenland when he went after alaska as well. at the end of world war ii, you had president truman offer $100 million to buy greenland then. this is not a new idea but an older writer that has come around. you look at what the president is doing, he is thinking out-of-the-box and trying to engage to put the united states in a position of global leadership. when you look at it historically, a lot of things he is saying is very, very accurate historically, and it makes a lot of sense internationally to what it will look like for the future. when it comes to panama, i was a commander and invaded panama and we took the panama canal back in the late '80s. in three weeks later, we go back. we have taken it before and it has happened before. and i think his point about the chinese owning date canal is a good point because over 70% of commerce goes through the

panama canal is in fact american. it is in our final national interest at that canal state sovereign. >> sandra: general, always good to have found the program. think you, sarah. >> thank you, sandra. >> john: we are tracking the latest on the deadly los angeles wildfires. we will take you to the hardest-hit areas next. plus this... >> we will make the department of justice fair and strong but fair again. because all they did was attack me because i am they are political opponent. that includes with local judges like judge merchan. >> sandra: president asking to step in and stop the sentencing in new york this friday. how strong is this case? kerri urbahn is here on that next. ♪ ♪ about axonics therapy. you can even try it first to see if it works for you. call this number today.

the key to that argument, john, and i was sitting at the trial everyday so i remember this clearly is that, a lot of the evidence introduced at the trial involved acts, conversations, meetings and the like after donald trump became president which presumably -- >> john: it didn't happen until taken office. >> any actions as president presumably would be covered by presidential immunity. some court at some point we'll have to disentangle and unwind all of that and see what happen. judge merchan address that argument and said, even if they did erroneously, that jerry around this lake consider actions by president trump that may be immune to coach at that is just harmless error in light of overwhelming guilt. everyone sitting in court, oh, no, no no. >> john: ted is reversible. >> we don't understand underlying crimes he was convicted up. so we will see what the high courts do. but he certainly has a

reasonable argument. >> john: here is what the trump petition said, this court should enter immediate stay for the proceedings and the new york trial court grave injustice and harm to the institution of the presidency and operations of the federal government. we have a couple of things here. can the supreme court unwind everything that happened and the trial court in two days? >> they can certainly pause sentencing. >> john: that is the first thing and a composite. >> as donald trump continues to appeal the pause. >> john: second point judge merchan knows once trump becomes president at 12:00 at the capitol building on the 20th, presidential immunity kicks and if he does not sentence him now, he will not get a chance to do it. >> judge merchan is a political animal and is not letting this go without a fight. one thing i thought particularly distasteful he did this last week is only gave donald trump a

week to go to the courts and try to get when to intervene, which is very difficult to do in a handful of days. he knew exactly what he did when he set sentencing and try to box donald trump in and out donald trump exercising his rights like everyone else in america and as he should be able to to say, hey, look let's pause sentencing while i appeal this decision to allow these actions into the jury verdict. >> john: but the clock is definitely running. real quick, jack smith wants to release his report, at least a portion of it, dealing with trump to try to overturn 2020 election. judge aileen cannon put a stay on the police have anything coming from smith's office particularly because about the documents and still a couple of prosecutions ongoing and that. where is this going? will we see this report over no questioning. >> lots of methane parts and all past but one impulse the classified documents case.

there is no way attorney garland can release that because it is a live case and two people still part of that case. he has indicated that such in a recent violent it would not release that because an credentialed to the case. the others about january 6. you have to remember special counsel is to file a report and the attorney general not required to lay set. that is discretionary decision. i would argue jack smith filed a report in the beginning of october, 155 page document dump. and i think many perceived an attempt to influence the election but not necessary. we already know what we will get in the report so but this feels like at this point is just another example of law for or against donald trump. >> john: that is certainly the way he sees it. we will see what the supreme court does and we will hear from them in the next 48 hours. kerri. >> i watched a news conference and i thought it was a very good
