platforms and v.o.d. so everyone check that out, really cool. harvey: thank you, david. david: get out and vote everybody. charles: and get out and vote. when we come back, hurricane laura crashing into louisiana and texas and weather channel reporters are in real dangerous situations. you'll see this video. overnight as the storm was hitting when

it's rough out there. people are looking for change, for answers. one answer is at your fingertips, the 2020 census. census takers will be visiting households to make sure we are counted. because an undercounted community could miss out on billions of funding for schools, healthcare and job assistance each year for the next ten years. too much is at stake. respond online today. shape your future. start here at 2020census.gov. an army family who is always at the ready. so when they got a little surprise... two!? they got a bigger car for their soon-to-be-bigger family. who helped find the right coverage for them and even some much-needed savings. that was the easy part. usaa insurance is made the way liz and mike need it-

easy. charles: welcome back to "tmz live." hurricane laura is devastating the gulf coast right now, hitting louisiana very hard, parts of texas as well and the weather channel reporters -- this is game time for them and they take this very, very seriously. in the middle of the night, as the storm was making landfall around lake charles, there were some weather channel reporters quhorm up straight through the night and showing you exactly what it was like to stand in hurricane-force winds with the rain coming down and debris flying everywhere. watch this. this is amazing that they were still out. i think this was 1:30 in the morning.

harvey: yeah. >> category 4 to make landfall - wow! so all this >> whoa! whoa! >> we're fine, everyone. we are fine. we are totally final. charles: yeah, fine but just by a stroke of luck, reich eyeing -- right? that easily could have been -- harvey: we were talking 150 -mile-an-hour winds at some point. this is perilous. it's a really difficult job and anybody who's covered storms or fires or earthquakes they know that reporters don't run away from the middle. they toned go to it because

that's where the story is. charles: right. harvey: and there you go here. charles: there's a story there and there's also incredibly powerful video and i think it's important for people to see. >> it's important to see, charles, and i know, harvey, you were a reporter for many years but when i'm watching this video, we've got on the a point with technology and what knot where should thee reporters really be risking their lives? the glass is shattering. the second guy who goes out there has a helmet on. it seems so unnecessary. harvey: i get it. i did stuff hike this when i was a reporter for cbs in los angeles where, in the 1990's, just everything happened in the city. i mean, it was -- it felt so cataclysmic. it's funny, i think about that compared to 2020 and 2020 is worse but we had floleds and fl grooleds floods and all this

stuff and you just do it. charles: the criticism that i'm sure you heard and a lot of these reporters, especially the weather channel hear is they're just doing it for the show of getting great video. i think, having produced newscasts like this, the reason you want to do it is because you want people to understand what they're up against. harvey: if you took the reporter out of the equation you'd just see a bunch of branches flying and it doesn't have the impact. when you see what it can do to a human being, you connect to it and think twice because you want to stay or whatever. i think there's a useful function in that. that said, i remember one time when it was so difficult and brutal. i remember looking into the camera at one point looking like how do eld rat saying you get one of them anchor jobs?

charles: it was that the flash flood? harvey: no, it was a fire in malibu. they told me i didn't meet the height requirement. charles: while you're standing in a flood. low blow, so to speak. unfolds, definitely something to keep in our thoughts, all these people but why are the reporters basically on the coastline? this shot and you see the glass come in and this guy fully knows the drill. he's got a helmet and what is that, a vest? my favorite part is the last part where you see the casino and people are just wandering around as if they're goy trying to get to the slot machines before the power goes out and they have no idea a hurricane is about to hit. harvey: anyway, really, our thoughts and prayers are with

anybody because this was devastating -- charles: the power outages alone is going to be devastating. harvey: moving on. charles: yes, good news for katy perry and orlando bloom. who are proud parents. they finally happened the baby and they are celebrating. it seems like she should have had this babe baby a couple of weeks ago? harvey: i'm not sure about that. i thought they were always talking about the middle of september. daisy. daisy bloom. i love that name. >> if you look at that photo they posted with them holding da only katy perry's fingernail. they're both good li ambassadors for unicef. nebs the birth went super

smooth, the baby is healthy but because of covid there's a shortage of health care workers so a lot of newborn babies aren't getting action like that. they also wanted to bring awareness to a very, very important message. harvey: that's great. congratulations to them and the whole family. caller: i'm from chicago and i'm kind of excited about the new name. i dove it. daisy is really cute. kind of like the announcement which -- when they were talking about also women in poverty and talking about other women outside of their spaces and now -- how they need support and education and i really love what they did on instagram. harvey: a great way of going an announcement and doing good. taking a break. charles: when we come back, kanye west is not going down

without a fight in ohio. he's taking legal action to try and get on the ballot there. an important state and apparently kanye realizes that too. ta-da!

did you know liberty mutual customizes your car insurance so you only pay for what you need? given my unique lifestyle, that'd be perfect! let me grab a pen and some paper. know what? i'm gonna switch now. just need my desk...

my chair... and my phone. only pay for what you need. ♪ liberty. liberty. liberty. liberty. ♪ charles: welcome back to "tmz live" and kanye west is going all out to get on the ballot in ohio. we know he's had some issues in other states but he's now suing

to get top ballot in ohio , whichof course, is a critical swing state and if he can play spoiler there, this could really -- you're talking about something that could change the entire election. harvey: it could and he's suing because the secretary of state in ohio has thrown out a number of the signatures that he got to qualify and he's saying that was wrong and he's challenging that, saying he has every right to be on the ballot as the birthday party candidate. charles: why is it so hard to get on the ballot in ohio? he did it in illinois -- harvey: because ohio is a swing state and much more knowningful than some of the others and everybody knows it. look, he's not going to win but the issue that everything is talking about is kanye could be a spoiler in a close election. and elections have been close of late.

>> and ohio and wisconsin are two states that kanye is trying to get back on the ballot. as you guys said, these are states donald trump won in 2016 by an extremely think margin. so it makes you think why is he making such an aim aggressive push to get on the ballot in these states? and he's willing to spend about another half a million in arizona, which is another swing state. charles: if he were doing this in all the states where he was chamming and would signatures were thrown out, you could just say he's standing by his team's, the signatures that they've gotten. but to only do it in the swing states -- harvey: it knows -- shows that the whole point of this is to be a spoiler. charles: right, and that's a bad look, right? harvey: he has denied that

but the interesting thing to me is that the conventional wisdom dom seems to be that if he's a foyle spoiler, he's going to hurt biden. but in case, with ohio, the secretary of state is a republican. so i found that kind of interesting. remember, kanye has been meeting with jared kushner. they met in colorado. they talk on the phone. kushner says we only talk about policy, not politics. i don't know about that. that's what he said. but i think what he wants to do is have an impact. he can't have an impact generally but he has as a spoiler. caller: i think thee need to tell kanye he's unqualified. i like some of his songs but what the freak does he know about being president? harvey: moving on. charles: to your favorite time of the week. tim with his vedgets rejects.

watch you got? tim: thanks, guys. how would you guys take out an elk if it was stuck in your snoop harvey: you mean take it out of the pool, right? >> yes, ask if you had a pool and an elk was there, how would you get it out of the pool? charles: how about a ladder? harvey: i'd show him a picture of the lodge and see if he comes out. charles: wow. wow. harvey: tim has no idea what i just said. tim: whatever. they tied up the antlers and pulled it out and safely got out of the pool and everything was fine. harvey: oh, good, do you know where he went? to the elk's lodge. next, tim. tim: i'm guessing you bought you one of these before your long two-week vacation you just had, charles. charles: i thought it was a month but anyway, yes. tim: it's a mask that you can

wear and then it has a sipping little opening so you don't have to mask -- take your mask off when you sim water or coach or whatever. so you're safe and you can still enjoy the fluids you're drinking. harvey: how do you get a chicken breast in there? tim: it's not for eating, it's for drinking. this is not going good. [laughter] charles: wow, your power of perception is really good, tim. tim: have you guys had any close calls before? check out this close call. this guy was riding a scooter and crossing the street and a car actually hits him perfectlyt like gets on the scooter and goes back to town. harvey: you did that to give me ptsd, didn't you? charles: hey, there was no car involved in your accident. harvey: that's true.

thank you very much, tim. that was entertaining. taking a break. charles: when we come back, trevor noah has a legal reference for president trump in case he's looking for a new lawyer. you have to see what trevor is

it's not going away. covid-19. more than ever, california needs rapid coronavirus testing. robust contact tracing. support for community health clinics. masks and ppe for those saving lives... for teachers and school personnel educating students. these heroes are doing their jobs. now government must do theirs. keep working through a special session to combat this crisis right now and provide the revenues to solve the problems we know are coming.

charles: welcome back to "tmz live." trevor noah has been a fairly vocal opponent of president trump but he's reaching out to him with a full-page ad offering him a legal service. harvey: not unlike larry h. parker. charles: you know those ads where they'll get you out of a bind real fast. harvey: trevor noah and associates and sons. i love that. one-two under w.h. crime. it's really funny. charles: this was a full-page ad he took out in the "washington post." clearly tonight when he's accepting the nomination but are you an ex-president about to use egal immunity? as your ex-lawyer goin to jail?

>> no coincidence. today he's going to get the nomination and a little bit of a stormy daniels situation. we'll get you off and it won't even cost you $130,000. [laughter] charles: i know what you're saying and you think no matter who you are that's funny. you think republicans are look at that and laughing? they're not. harvey: fair point. caller: my name is sherry. i'm from oahu in hawaii and i love trevor noah so much. he is extremely clever clf. i think he's just making everything a little bit lighter as this election process is a t. harvey: i would strike the words a little. it is heavy and dark. this has been a tough, tough time. what else do you want to talk about? caller: i'm from philadelphia, here to talk about jacob blake.

i just it's pretty crazy what happened to him. things have gotten worse and worse in america. he feels unarmed. i think he definitely should have listened to the cops and told en he told -- they him to stop but that doesn't mean shoot him seven times in the back. harvey: what's the talk in the barbershop about this? caller: everyone is like where do we go from here? it's gotten worse and starting to test everything, friendships, family members. there's a lot of anger. it seems like everyone is taking a side step trying to come to a slugse solution. harvey: no, i get it. i get it. charles: appreciate you calling in. harvey: absolutely. one more. caller: hi, guys. i'm calling out of detroit, michigan, and i feel like this is a great start they're doing with the nba boycott because now

you mess with people's money, now people are listening and want to support and get on the calls. baffles this is really important and all black lives matter. harvey: those players have been pretty amazing. taking a break. charles: when we come back, a -- ding that challenged 20/ 2020 and 2020 challenged them right with a bolt of lig t-mobile and sprint have merged.

vows. this is amazing timing. >> let's face it, 2020 has not been the best year. [laughter] thunderclap] harvey: either god is saying oh, come on, go get married, it's going to be great or god is saying not so fast. something s either with aaron or -- by the way, everyone was fine but it wasn't that far away. it struck on the other side of the lake. harvey: i know. congratulations. oh, my gosh. another day a helping fire crews across the state. firefighters worn it is still b

areas where the fire is out, those crews are working to restore water and power service so evacuees can return safely. in the north bay, the lane you lightning complex fire spread into a sixth county. new evacuation orders are issued for areas near the lake and colusa county line, grown t acres and is 33% contained. the fire complex destroyed or damaged over 1300 homes and other holdings in napa, solano, sonoma, lake and yellow counties, some people in solano county are allowed to return to their homes. we go live for a chance to talk with residents as well as officials about the decision to allow evacuees back in. >> it's all latest version, nap

strong, many people already knew the condition of the homes, the anticipation of what is left of it or, seeing it at all. we first met stephanie at the mission church parking lot on town road in vacaville. literally with minutes to evacuate as the lsu firestorm swept the region destroying one in five homes. >> my home was a spare come i feel so bad because there were just so many, so many people out that left in their homes. >> reporter: in order to get into neighborhoods homeowners must show proof of residency and get a pass from the sheriff's office. >> we ask them to check in and we update contact information, so people lost their homes and we want to be able to get a hold of them for a variety of reasons to >> reporter: she already knew her home survived the firestorm and she found it hard to believe as she drove into her rural scorched community. >> when i came up here and, i

saw, you know, everything burned and i was like oh my god, i am so lucky to be alive because, i could've been killed, i know, you know, it came that fast, we had a time . >> reporter: fire storms, she had money prior to the storm which she used brilliantly. >> i got the gravel, p gravel, i will get rid of all of these plans. >> reporter: the other homes surviving around here, this home is the textbook definition of defensible space. only because it had defensible space it survives. but, even defensible space is no guarantee of success as the family sadly found out. >> my wife had said things like these could happen so we were prepared, to get stuff, you know, stuff that was important. >> reporter: with insurance they can rebuild, something they are mulling over. >> we are trying to decide come

he really wants to rebuild. i'm a little more afraid of the fire. [ laughter ] . >> reporter: sadly, we live in an era of megafire. the megafire is increasing in danger, so much so everybody is aware defensible space is probably the only way you can go. fox 2 news. >> the new reality here in california. thank you. let's talk more about these fires, joining me once again this afternoon is daniel a cal fire assistant deputy director. thank you again for being here. i have to first say, crate work on all of the crews getting a footing on of these blazes. but, they're still a lot of work to be done here until the fires are extinguished, bring our viewers up to date on how things are looking right now. >> firefighters have continued to make good progress on a number of fronts, the weather

obviously cooperating. they join the fight and continue to join the fires with everything we have on the ground, firefighters, bulldozers, fire fighters come in the air, helicopters like these and large caretakers just outside of this shot here, a 747 with several air tankers, again, this is a full out fighter right now with the fire. >> yes, of course it is, a lot of resources are being thrown at them, daniel, what are the biggest challenges facing a fire crews right now? >> reporter: well, while the weather has started to cooperate with us, we are not being significant with the lightning on the triple digit temperatures, the fire in many areas burning now really is in steep, rugged, and accessible trade. that makes getting access to them is so much more difficult,

so, while containment efforts have been going up, fires remaining with containment lines not yet dealt are very difficult to access that will continue to take hard work and a lot of effort by firefighters. >> we just saw a new round of fresh evacuation orders a semi from the lane you fire complex lucky tells about the firefight there? >> reporter: we have had a lot of activity, especially on the eastern portion of the hennessy fire burning in the complex in yolo county. specifically yesterday with activity really picking up around this time with additional evacuations. now, a number of fronts we are making enough progress where we are able to lift or downgrade evacuations, so, we are making good headway but again, a lot of active fire and even though we have the 25-3% containment on a number of fires, we are

cautiously optimistic as there are a lot of open lines ahead of us. >> yes, i think when people see those numbers increasing daniel, when it comes to progress, they wonder okay, now is it safe for people to return? explain to people what needs to take place before fire evacuees are able to return to fire areas. >> reporter: we want to get homeowners back into their homes as quickly as possible but, besides making sure the hotspots are out we have to make sure the utilities and infrastructure oftentimes there is roadway damage, power poles falling to the ground. all that has to be cleaned up. it has to be,, the safety current concerns are mitigated before homeowners come back, we as possible. it has to be safe before we can do so. >> yes, it certainly needs to become also the issue of a falling trees, we have seen

various agencies tweeting information about trees falling in areas where the fire has cut through with the path. thank you so much daniel for joining us of this afternoon. again, great work by all of the hard-working fire crews, we really appreciate. for the latest on the wildfire containment and the evacuation orders, be sure to stay with ktvu and ktvu.com on our homepage. after several nights of violent protests last night the demonstration over the shooting of jacob late in kenosha, wisconsin was largely peaceful with many people continuing to push for change and racial justice. jonathan hunt is in kenosha with the latest. >> reporter: i the streets of kenosha much calmer with the fourth night of protest with the police shooting of jacob blake but despite this, the department of justice deploying more than 200 law enforcement agents to aid and local authorities on the heels of the agency announcing a civil rights investigation into the blake shooting. wednesday the peaceful protest coming hours after illinois
