involved behind me right now and there is not a firefighter in sight. >> spot ahead of itself and keeps moving and jumping and leapfrogging up because st spots. >> my hots home just blew up and probably seven of my cars caught on fire. >> reporter: six firefighters were briefly during that period by the flames. two of them suffered minor injuries. >> just because of the wind direction, we were fully engulfed with smoke and visibility was extremely low and hard just to we hunkered down and sat there and waited for the fire to blow over. >> reporter: we found these men working to protect their neighbors' homes. where are the firefighters? >> up there where the fire is, i guess. >> reporter: what is it like fighting a fire up here? >> it's part of living up here. >> reporter: what is it like as a firefighter when you see these people watching their homes burn and you know there is nothing you can do? >> it's tragic and something firefighters hate to see. >> reporter: this is one of nine

sacramento, is 35% contained and we have learned the man who was arrested for setting that fire was trained as an inmate firefighter while he was in prison and, margaret, he is scheduled to be arraigned today. >> carter, thank you. donald trump is overhauling his top political staff again. his campaign confirmed the changes overnight. promoting an adviser and hiring the executive chairman of a conservative website. campaign's ceo and while trump strategist kelly ann conway is the new campaign manager. paul manafort remains campaign chairman. earlier, trump criticized recent violence in milwaukee and the democratic party's relationship with african-americans. major garrett covers last night's trump rally in west bend, wisconsin and with us this morning from milwaukee. >> reporter: good morning. donald trump is on his third campaign manager.

a scandal linked to ukraine and maybe off the books payment to manafort. before that news broke, trump made a speech here he hoped would appeal to african-americans by accusing hillary clinton and the democratic party in general of being indifferent to inner city poverty. >> so every voter living in the inner city, or every forgotten stretch of our society, i'm running to offer you a much >> reporter: donald trump tried to diversify his political movement by condemning what he called decades of failed democratic urban rule. >> i'm asking for the vote of struggling in our country today, who wants a different and much better future. >> reporter: the message was new, but the audience was typical. overwhelming white.

african-american voters and less than of what mitt romney got. >> we will reject bigotry and depression in all of its ugly forms. >> reporter: from the start of his campaign, trump has drawn criticism for racial insensitive. >> he is a mexico. look at my african-american over here. are you greatest? >> reporter: this time, trump rekindled a long conservative argument policies are to blame for urban despair. >> the african-american community has been taken for granted for decades by the democratic party and look how they are doing. >> reporter: and electing hillary clinton would further inflame racial tensions. >> we reject the bigotry of hillary clinton, which panders and talks down to communities of color and sees them only as votes. that's all they care about. >> reporter: trump has rejected

the naacp or the national urban league. today in new york, trump will receive his first classified intelligence briefing as the republican party nominee. >> republican strategist and cbs news contributor frank luntz is with us. good morning. >> good morning. >> what do we make of the changes in the trump campaign? >> you don't do it -- you have addition. that is traditional in politic as you get closer to the election, you add more talent but you don't have a shake-up like this. you don't take the top person and push them aside paul manafort. steve bannon is one of the toughest and most aggressive and most negative operatives in america today and that signals to me that trump, rather than softening his approach, is going to double-down on being the tough, in your face, campaigner and i don't think that is what donald trump needs. these are independent undecided voters he is going after. they appreciate his message but they question he, himself. they don't like the persona and they don't like the anger and

and want change in wall street and think he can bring it but don't like him as a person. >> what will kelly ann conway? she has worked with several other campaigns. >> i have known her for 30 years. at the this is someone who knows polling and focus groups and messaging but the question is will donald trump listen to her and does he listen to anyone? his message still resonates. his message is stronger this hillary clinton but his porna is upsetting to so many people. take a look at the polling the last two weeks. when he finished the convention he was up by two points and now down by eight and all because of his persona and not his policies and not the issues he has talked about. >> does this deepen the divide within the republican party or mend fences in any way? >> it depends on what trump says and does. they want him to be totally prepared for this debate. they want him to take the campaign against hillary clinton. but every time he is talking

agitating people and every time it's about this conversation right now, donald trump is losing. >> roger ailes? >> i think it's significant. and roger is, to me, i've known him since 1980, the best political operative. he knows how to win a debate, he knows how to win a presentation. he took george h.w. bush and i believe ailes was the most important person in that campaign but it's somewhat combustible to put trump and roger ailes in the same room and like pulling stalin and trotsky and adding more. >> they say there has nobody formal deal with him. >> there may not be a formal deal but it doesn't mean they don't talk. >> thank you, frank. republicans and democrats are ready for a fight over hillary clinton's e-mails. they received notes from the investigation that led to no charges against clinton. the candidate is promoting a

claiming donald trump's economic plan would lower taxes and give tax breaks to the rich. nancy cordes is in washington where the fbi gave the clinton-related documents to congress yesterday. >> reporter: we learned the fbi is turning over quite a bit of material to congress. a highly unusual move designed to convince republicans that the agency thoroughly investigated clinton's use of a private server before recommending against prosecution. the fbi labeled the clinton material being provided with the expectation it will not be disseminated or disclosed without fbi concurrence. the documents include interview summaries that republicans will pore over looking for discrepancies what clinton told fbi agents and what she told congress. >> nothing was marked classified at the time or sent or received it. >> reporter: republicans are trying to make the case that clinton should be prosecuted for perjury and false statements.

war over her use of a private e-mail account and serve her as secretary of state. >> i have nothing to say. >> reporter: campaigning in philadelphia, clinton had no comment but an aide says the perjury accusation, quote, reeks of desperation on the part of republicans who continue to use taxpayer money to affect an election that isn't going their way and hoping to change the subject, her campaign accused trump last night of pushing a deranged conspiracy about clinton's health. >> hillary clinton doesn't have believe me. >> reporter: the 70-year-old trump has made a series of unfounded statements about clinton's well-being. >> she's got -- she is low energy. she actually is low energy. >> reporter: clinton aides point out she has done hundreds of campaign events. >> we have to be committed. >> reporter: and saileded through an 11-hour benghazi hearing. >> those are the facts, mr. chairman. >> reporter: that hasn't stopped trump. >> she will take an nap for four or five hours and come back. no naps for trump!

homes as soon as possible. >> reporter: two days of record rainfall dumped more than two feet of rain in parts of louisiana. >> the people here work hard for what they got and to see them lose it because of this, you know, it's hard. >> reporter: on sunday, volunteers rescued mary ellen morgan and her family. tuesday, we found her at the now flood damaged home. have you been able to get any of your personal belongings? >> i don't even know. >> reporter: do you care? >> no, i don't. we are safe. we are well. i mean, how much more blessed >> reporter: the cleanup here will take months and, so far, 60,000 people have signed up for fema assistance but the immediate danger is not over because there is more rain in the forecast. charlie? >> omar, thanks. team usa won nine more medals at the rio olympics yesterday. that gives the united states 84 total medals and extends its lead over china and great britain. all-around gymnastic

? it is wednesday, august 17th, 2016. welcome back to "cbs this morning.? there is more real news ahead, including new changes inside donald trump's campaign. the candidate says, though, that the trump campaign since it began, looks at the new faces at the top. first, here's a look at today's "eye opener" at 8:00. i can feel the heat radiating behind me, but it's also moved extremely fast and spread fire resources very thin. donald trump is on his third campaign manager, first there was corey lewandowski and then manafort but now he's out. he is one of the toughest most aggressive and most negative operatives in america

softening his approach, is going to double-down on being the in your face campaigner. >> the fbi turned over quite a bit of material to congress and convincing them that the agency thoroughly investigated clinton's private server. >> later on this morning, search crews will go door-to-door and looking for people who did not evacuate. >> if anybody needed another example of just how dominant the u.s. women have in this sport, last night, they got two. >> i can't get enough of simone i call it extreme -- extreme vetting. >> it's like he is auditioning for the extreme vetting commercial! extreme. i call it extreme vet -- okay, wait. i call it extreme vet dog like how many takes do we get? it's live, donald, it's live! ?

king and margaret brennan. norah is off. a massive wildfire in southern california has put more than 80,000 people under evacuation orders. you're looking at live pictures of the bluecut fire that exploded yesterday to cover ruffle 18,000 acres in san bernardino county, about 45 miles northeast of los angeles. fire crews are spread thin as the flames are moving too fast to control. california's governor declared a state of emergency donald trump's presidential campaign has announced another change at the top. stephen b bannon will the trump ceo. kellyanne conway was promoted to campaign manager and paul manafort will remain campaign chairman. trump told an overwhelming

his campaign would do more for african-americans than hillary clinton would. >> the democratic party has run nearly every inner city in this country for 50 years, and run them into financial ruin. virtually every single one. they have ruined the schools, they have driven out the jobs, they have tolerated a level of crime no america should consider acceptable, worse than any third world countries. >> major garrett was at last night's trump rally in wisconsin. major, good morning. >> reporter: good morning. >> what do you think about this -- first of all, this shake-up in terms of the staff. what does that mean for trump? >> reporter: well, look. you have to always remember, trump is the campaign. trump and his daughter ivanka and his sons are the essence of the campaign. we learned that campaign managers can come and go. stephen bannon is a capable

earlier. and conway can deal with message but neither have had these jobs before and asked to step into roles they are unfamiliar with on the fly in high-pressure situations when the trump campaign has never faced more peril when with it comes to its polling and organization position vis-a-vis hillary clinton. tough job and tough assignment but remember, trump runs the campaign first and foremost. >> is it a demotion for manafort? >> it's to insulate the campaign decided the stories about paul manafort this week especially about ukraine and lobbying and off the book payments are bad and likely to get worse. but they are still keeping him in a position of somewhat, at least importance within the campaign. it's an insulation move. if the stores keep up and publicity gets worse they may have to jettison manafort but holding on to him as they can. >> what do you make of the timing of this and what do you

trump campaign when everybody says donald trump runs his own campaign? >> reporter: as i just said, he does run his own campaign. if you look at last night's speech, it was, by far, the best drafted and best delivered teleprompter speech of the trump campaign. that is kind of a low bar. a well-drafted speech, well-delivered is what you expect in a presidential campaign but trump hasn't really oriented himself in that direction. if he continues to do that, and it's an enormous if, he may reap political benefits from this trump campaign, you can never predict the future and you have to be ready for any possible unpredictable event and that is what i'm going to do. >> major, you had that trump is trying to reach out to african-americans but he has turned down speaking opportunities. he was invited to speak to the naacp and other significant groups. why do that? >> reporter: i don't know. but if you want to look at last night's speech, it was in the most perfect safe zone trump

a speech about african-american pathologies, urban decay, urban blight and despair and democrats being responsible for that in one of the most republican counties in wisconsin, in one of the whitest counties in wisconsin. 96% white according to the latest census bureau data 45 miles outside of milwaukee. trump came here to special about unrest and didn't go to the city but went could find. >> major, thank you. donald trump said this week that he would create a coalition with russia to defeat isis. he also said he wants to shift nato's focus away from countering russia and he called president jeff president jeff prvladimir putin strong leader. we asked former defense

next president faces from that russian leader. >> i think putin is one of these leaders who will push forward as long as there is no significant resistance. but he is not suedal. he suicidal. he is not delusional or crazy but he is a calculated person playing a very poor hand with great skill. >> is putin gaining influence? >> i think that putin certainly has reasserted rauussia' gols. russia will be at the table and probably in the chair as things look like right. >> reporter: on day one, what does the next president encounter? >> the next president needs to begin with what is putin trying to do? putin is trying to reassert russia as a great power player in the world. if he can do it politically, he will. if he needs to do it militarily,

make clear that the united states won't be pushed around by this guy. >> reporter: you see the risk of military confrontation? >> the risk is the same as it was during the cold war in this specific respect as a miscalculation of an accident or a mistake that somebody makes that escalates the situation. >> gates said the best case scenario was a new president with a lot of credibility who lays out clear guidelines what the u.s. will and charlie, that is going to be a tough first phone call for the next president, but we will see. >> bob gates has also said, i mean, people who have been in the situation room at the white house when he and hillary clinton were there together during the first term of the obama administration, that the two of them were often on the same page, bob gates and hillary clinton. >> yes. well, look at what russia is doing right now with using now iranian air bases to bomb syria.

setting up for either a clash or confrontation. >> he'll do as much as he can until somebody says no more. >> right. >> we will see. >> we will see. >> sets up an interesting meeting for president obama and putin in a few weeks in september. >> certainly more to come on that. >> yes. u.s. gymnast aly raisman last night won her sixth olympic medal.

times. this show was so excited. from the beginning, jon stewart pitched me an idea that he felt there were a lot of voices that weren't being heard on television and weren't being represented and i thought there should be a show where that could happen. he imagined a round table type of show and he said i want you to be the ring leader. i'm like, what? what? i mean, i'm 52. you know, i was at my breaking bad age where i should be making meth somewhere, you know? a winnebago and trying to get away from the law is w has that giant shrub always been there? so rare opportunity, you know? i'm tickled with the humility that comes with that knowing how to do that all and then jon wants the show to be the minority reporter and we are tackling race and gender and class. thanks, jon! let's do that! you know? >> such a great comedy. >> yes, but knowing jon, you know, on the serious side, we had done that before on "the tale show."

about the world, but that doesn't mean that i don't go home and watch every "real housewives" and every "bachelorette." you think, you know, we are dynamic people. >> i like in the book you take on this idea of people singling you out as a female comedienne more. this is what women in hollywood are like. >> yeah. >> that really gets under your skin. >> it does. it bothers me. it's such -- i think -- we were talking about this, gayle.
