kevin hearn, the leader of the republican study committee, said yesterday. it's a about leadership. still some republicans say that they need more details. scott perryho is a republican and the leader of the house freedom caucus, he's been involved in a lot of these early discussions, he says. quote i don't know what's in the package. so a lot of work for leadership to do. yes kevin mccarthy is projecting that he could have the votes as early as next week, when a lot of leaders are hoping this bill can come to the floor, but it's a huge gamble because the whole game here is to try to get the white house. and senate democrats to negotiate if kevin mccarthy cannot show he has unity behind him, that gets a lot harder to do, okay. lauren it's good to see you. thanks for the update. john there is a serious threat of wildfires across a large part of the country, smoky reason to be concerned a critical fire danger warning from the southwest into the plains. while all of new jersey is under a red flag warning. cnn meteorologist derek van dam in the weather center tracking this for us, derek, why don't you tell us where there is the biggest threat of fires?

perry. caller: good morning. i was just curious. i know kevinanuary 6 footage to tucker carlson and his staff. did fox confiscate that, or is he still in possession of that? guest: that is a great question. i am not sure anybody knows the answer at the moment. i would be surprised if tucker carlson had surrendered that. from what i am understanding, tucker carlson is still under contract to fox news. it was not particularly clear when mccarthy provided those videotapes of january 6, whether he was providing them to tucker carlson himself or to the channel. my guess is, tucker carlson still has those or access to those in some fashion. my guess is, we have not heard the end of what his analysis of that will be. one of the reasons i say that is, when he first got a hold of those tapes and promised he was going to be discussing those in his programs going forward, there was a big rollout on a couple of days where he had a lot of comments and showed videos and provided commentary. then, that drifted off. we did not see much follow-up to that. there
