jordan catapano. thank you. >> thank you so much. >> well, president biden just got briefed on the wildfires in the oval office with other officials, including the governor of california, the mayor of los angeles. take a listen. >> vice president harris and i are about to receive a briefing with governor newsom and mayor bass and the fema director criswell. so both of them are on the ground leading the fight against this god awful wildfires in california, the worst in california history. and there's been some progress in the last 24 hours. so i want to give an update of where we think things are at the moment. first, overnight, local, state and federal firefighters were able to partially prevent some of the largest fires from spreading to new areas. 3% in pasadena has been kept from spreading. 8% in pacific palisades, 35% in ventura and 37% in sylmar. and but this time yesterday, these fires are mostly spreading out of control. we've still got a long way to go, as they're out to hear from the governor
